Darkness Spreads

Chapter 10 - Last goodbye

Sniff It's the final chapter... I hope you like it! Cries Oh, sorry about the gaps in between the lines on the last chapter, I don't know what happened there...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

They were all back in the house, sitting in the front room.

Ed looked at them all, his eyes slowly rotating around the room.

"So..." He began. "What happened?"

Syaoran looked at the floor, his hand going up to the bruise on his head. Sakura looked at the ground. Fai looked at Kurogane. Kurogane looked at Fai.

Al looked confused.

Ed's eye twitched.

"Oh come on!" He yelled. "Tell me!"

Fai smiled awkwardly. "Well... It's a bit of a long story..."

As he talked, Syaoran and Kurogane filled in the bits he missed out.

At the end of the story Fai lent back on the sofa. "So, that's that then."

Ed frowned. "But you didn't find the feather?"

Syaoran smiled suddenly. He stood up, pushing his fringe back. "Yes we did."

Al stood up, excited. "You did!"

Syaoran nodded, then held out a hand to help Sakura up. He pulled the feather out from his shirt.

"Here, take it Sakura-Hime."

Sakura's eyes widened slightly as the feather moulded into her.

"Thank you... Syaoran..." She whispered as the memory came rushing back.

Syaoran caught he as she fell. "I guess it's over then..."

Ed looked at him. "Where did you find it? You didn't mention that in the story."

Syaoran looked confused. "I didn't? Oh, When I woke up it was next to me in the snow. I have no idea how it got there."

Kurogane stood, helping Fai up as well.

"We had better go. We can't stay in one world for that long or we'll never find the girls memories."

Fai nodded. "Yes. Oh, Kuro-Tan? Can I talk to you for a moment?"

They walked out the room. Ed winked at Al and smiled.

Sakura looked at Syaoran in confusion and Syaoran blushed.

They came back in. Kurogane seemed slightly paler than before. Fai was smiling.

"Confess your love?" Ed asked.

Fai grinned but said nothing. Kurogane looked away.

Sakura looked at them, completely clueless.

Syaoran shook his head. "We should go."

Ed's face fell, with Al you could never tell.

"Hey! you've only been here for two days! Please just stay one more day?"

Fai looked to Syaoran, Syaoran to Sakura. Sakura looked up. "hmm? Oh, yes, that would be fun!" She smiled.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Later that evening...

Fai slipped over for the tenth time.

"Wah! Kuro-min! I can't skate!"

Kurogane shook his head as he clutched the side. "Neither can I!" He edged round to help the wizard back to his feet.

Fai grinned as he took his hand and pulled.

Kurogane screamed as he fell face first onto the ice.

He looked up at the magician, his face going red. Fai was standing, skating backwards and forwards.

"You fell for it... again!" He laughed.

Kurogane growled. "I'll get you!" He yelled, standing up and taking one step forwards on the ice before falling down again.

"Get back here!" He screeched as Fai slid over to the other side of the rink.

Syaoran smiled. This had been fun like Ed and Al had promised. He looked to Sakura. "Shall we join them?"

Sakura nodded, smiling.

They stepped onto the ice.

Syaoran's feet started to slip from beneath him, scattering around. He looked at Sakura.

"Your highness... you aren't having trouble... skating?"

She shook her head. "It's easier than it looks, isn't it?"

Syaoran smiling, leaning on the staff he'd brought.

"Yes."

They watched as Kurogane chased Fai around the ice.

"That looks fun." Sakura said. "Hey Syaoran!" She tapped him lightly. "You're it!"

Syaoran smiled. "Whatever you say Sakura-Hime."

He pushed off from the side and began to skate after her, passing Fai.

Fai winked and said. "A lovers night on the ice right?"

Syaoran blushed and nodded.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As Mokona opened his mouth to swallow them into the next world they waved.

"Thank you for the ice skating and the hospitality!" Fai called.

Syaoran placed his arm around Sakura's shoulders. "Yes! Thank you!"

Fai copied Syaoran much to Kurogane's dismay.

"See you!"

Ed and Al waved back, feeling slightly sad that the group was leaving them already.

"Take care!" Al called out.

"I hope you find the rest of the feathers!" Ed waved.

As they disappeared Fai felt a real smile light up on his face. He turned to Kurogane.

"I wonder where we'll go next?"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lol, aw. It's over! Darkness Spreads is finally finished! I hope you enjoyed it and I apologise for anything that you didn't like, sorry for not including Ed and Al much but I wanted to focus of Fai and the group more. Smile I will start another fanfic soon, I promise!
