"I can't believe this one-san!" A teen with short blue hair exclaimed furiously as he pushed a big leaf from his face. "Darn it!"

"Eto….." A slightly older teen uttered as she walked right behind him looking a bit ashamed of what she did. "I was supposed to make ototo happy today, now, he's mad at me…" "Atashi…." Perfect…

"I don't need to hear more excuses," he replied seriously as he held on a tree. He looked at it and examined it for awhile; maybe it can help the, get out of this mess. Nakuru bent her head in embarrassment for her brother and kept quiet.

A teen with wavy midnight hair looked at both of them; she sighed and put her hand over Nakuru's shoulder. "It's gonna be ok, right?"

Nakuru didn't look at her but still nodded. Tomoyo sighed, well; this isn't her perfect plan of a vacation for her anyways.

"Ikuzo, judging by this tree," Eriol stated and pointed to his right, "We should go this way."

Tomoyo and Nakuru nodded and followed his way. They have been walking for 1 1/2 hours now and well, it doesn't seem to be the right way or anything. Eriol's pretty furious on Nakuru as well.

"Tch," he uttered and pushed a leaf from his face. Hearing him saying that made Nakuru feel more humiliated, Tomoyo noticed this and suggested.

"Why don't we take a rest for awhile?" She asked. "This may get us all put together and maybe we can figure out a way how to get outta here."
Eriol sighed, he was pretty tired and his head was gonna explode from all the thinking and nodded. "Sure, rest sound nice to me."

The wind was gushing at them softly under an old oak tree. A teen with short blue hair looked at the green scenery before him with his arms crossed. He fixed his glasses and didn't look at the 2 teens beside him, just looking straight.

"Tch," he uttered. His older sister looked at her hands as she entangled them into her long auburn hair. Her amber eyes weren't looking happy as everyone with her; she was thinking this was all her fault.

"Calm down Nakuru-chan," a teen with wavy midnight hair placed her hand over her shoulder. "You shouldn't worry too much."

"But Tomoyo-chan…." She muttered in replied and took a small glance at her brother. "You don't understand."

"What's not to understand?" Eriol asked as his bangs covered his face. "Tell me, ane? What's not to understand!"

"E-Eriol…" Nakuru murmured. Eriol stood up and looked at her, his eyes were blank, it wasn't like the same old Eriol as he was and it was different.

"What the heck were you thinking!" He asked and crossed his arms. "This isn't funny one-san!"

"Eto, atashi wa…." Nakuru muttered under her breath.

"What were you thinking!" He asked her again. "You don't know when we're gonna get outta here, we may never even get out of here!"

"………"

"This is Li Syaroan's mountain villa!" He said. "It's huge, we may never get out!"

"But, Eriol…….."

"Uruse one-san!" He said harshly and turned his back. "This conversation is over." He started to walk slowly away from them.

"Eriol!" Nakuru voiced. "Ma-matte!" She stood up and stretched her hand to him, but, he kept walking. Tomoyo looked at Nakuru, her eyes were filled with crystal tears and they slowly fell to the ground.

"This is all my fault Tomoyo-chan," she said to her while she looked at the ground. "I'm sorry, just, please forgive me."

Tomoyo's eyes widened and stood up, she placed her hand over her shoulder, "Calm down Nakuru-chan, please. I don't blame you at all, it was an honest mistake."

"Iie!" Nakuru shouted and knelt on the ground, her eyes were filled of never ending tears. "Yo-you just don't understand!"

"Nani?" Tomoyo blinked her eyes. "Huh?"

Nakuru covered her eyes with her hands and cried, "You don't understand!"

"Na-nakuru," Tomoyo voiced and placed sat down next to her. "Wa-wakarenai." (MK: I'm not sure…)

"Tomoyo-chan, Eriol, you, you just don't know what he's been through!"

"Nani?"

"Tomoyo, please, go after him," Nakuru pleaded and held Tomoyo's skirt. "I'm begging you, go after him."

"Ha-hai……" Tomoyo nodded and ran after Eriol. Nakuru wiped her tears away and looked at the Tomoyo as she slowly started to disappear.

"Go-gomen, Tomoyo-chan…."

"Eriol!" She shouted as she pushed a leaf away from her face. "Kare wa doko desu ka…" Then, a figure came to her view, a male teen looking at a tree. "There you are!" She ran to him and placed her hand over his shoulder. He turned his head and asked in an unusual tone, a tone you wouldn't hear from the normal Eriol. "Nani ga hoshii desu ka?"

"Na-nakuru-chan, she, she wants…." Tomoyo muttered. Eriol turned his head and replied.

"I don't want to hear that name again," he said. Tomoyo's eyes widened.

"Nani wo iimashita ka?" She asked.

"I said, I don't want to hear that name again," he said firmly. Tomoyo suddenly wanted to slap Eriol with her bear hands. She loved this guy, she knew it, but, this wasn't him. No, this was someone else…

"What happened to you, Eriol?" She asked herself. "Are you really, E-Eriol?" Then, thoughts started to rewind in her head, his smile, his laugh, everything. "No, this is not Eriol."

She held both his shoulders and made him face her.

"Tomoyo, what the…" He muttered. She faced him with angry eyes.

"Jerk," she said to him.

"Na-nani?" He asked.

"You're such a jerk Eriol!" She shouted to him. "Why are you acting this way!"

Eriol looked to his right and didn't reply. Tomoyo clenched her fist and continued. "What happened to you! You weren't like this before, why are you shouting at Nakuru! Why! She didn't mean to do it! It's like she's made the worst mistake that a person can do! It's like she's not even your sister." Her last word sounded soft, not angry. "Why…?"

"Uruse Tomoyo!" He shouted without looking at her. "You have no idea……"

"Idea about what!" She asked. "Tell me!"

"You-you can never understand!" He replied. "If you think I'm a jerk, then fine! Say that for all I care!"

"E-Eriol," she mumbled. No, this is not Eriol. "What happened to you?"

"Nothing happened to me!" He replied. "When you take out what my sister did you can even say nothing's happened!"

Tomoyo clenched fist harder like she wanted them to spill out blood all over him. "Darn it! Who cares! You're being an inconsiderate jerk, you know that!"

"Tch! Say that! Whatever!"

"Why you……"

"You wouldn't understand me whatever I say!" He said to her. "You're just a nobody! Yeah, say whatever you want to say to me, a jerk, a freak, a maniac, or whatever! Say that to the whole world for all I care! Shout that to everyone, slap me right now! This isn't my fault! So shut up and go back to my sister! Just get the hell away!"

"Dammit! (MK: Well, when a person's angry, you don't know what'll come out of your mouth…) I hate you!"

"Who said I like you!" He asked back. "Just get the hell outta here."

SLAP!
Well, Eriol was now touching his left with a red mark on his face. His eyes were widened as he slowly caressed his slapped cheek.

"Eriol," she stated. "You jerk!" Then, with that, she ran away. Well, that's what Eriol thought, he doesn't know that her eyes were filled with endless tears.

Eriol was still surprised from her actions; his eyes were still enlarged from shock.

"Eriol, go after her," a female voice uttered to him. He faced to where it came from, it was Nakuru.

"O-one-san." He muttered. "I didn't mean to-"

"Iie Eriol," she shook her head and smiled, her eyes were swollen from all the crying. "Go after her now, Eriol."

"But…"

"Whatever she called you doesn't matter ne?" She asked. She walked to him and patted his shoulder. "It's never too late."

"Ha-hai," he was still unsure but, love is stupid. He smiled again for once and ran after Tomoyo.

"Gambate, ototo." Nakuru muttered. Then, she took out something from her pocket, it was her cellphone. She smirked as everything went according to plan. (MK: She's a pretty good actress ain't she?) "Hmm, I never expected my oh so smart brother to fall for my plan. Well, now I know he's not that observant at all. To think about it, I never thought this plan will actually work."

With that, she turned her back and walked away pressing some keys on her phone. This is was really getting interesting.

"Too bad though," she said and sat under the shade of a tree. "I won't get to see them 'perform' though and I'm sorry they have to get hurt or something."

So, Nakuru's isn't stupid after all.

"Tomoyo!" A male kept shouting as he turned his head left then right. "Tomoyo where in the world are you!" Then, he ran straight looking for her. "Com'n Tomoyo!"

"Eriol, I can't believe he can be such a jerk!" Tomoyo thought as she wiped her tears away. "No! Iie! That wasn't Eriol! It wasn't! It was a dream! The Eriol I knew wasn't like that! He will never say those words; he can never say those words! He isn't like that!" She cried some more. "No, he isn't like that!"

"Tomoyo!" A voice rang through her head. Her eyes widened, is she hearing right. But, her feet kept running like crazy.

"Eriol?" She muttered to herself. "Eriol!" She finally shouted. Eriol's eyes widened.

"Tomoyo is that you?" He asked. He started looking here and there under whatever he sees. "Tomoyo?"

"Eriol!" She shouted. "Where the heck are you?" She asked. Somehow, what happened earlier was like a small nightmare years ago. Then, she started to walk backwards, looking for Eriol. "Where are you?"

"Keep talking Tomoyo, I may get track with you when you do that!" Eriol replied. "Count 1 to 100."

"Ok." Tomoyo said. "One, two, three, four, five, six, se-…….. AAHHH!"

"Tomoyo!"

Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox

"Well, I guess the show's already starting," Nakuru smirked and looked at her phone. "Well, not exactly on time though. It was pretty long when Tomoyo noticed that my map was upside down. And it was long before Eriol gave up looking a way out. They didn't notice we were just walking through circles." She took a bottle of water and drank from it. "Xiao Lang's villa is just a big circle; they're not the observant type now. Well, that's that."

Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox

"Tomoyo hold on!" Eriol shouted as he tightened the grip on her hand. "Hold on!"

"Ha-hai," Tomoyo replied shakily. She was dangling in the air above a cliff, not a 'small' cliff to be exact. She wasn't looking where she was running when she suddenly tripped to this cliff. It's good that Eriol caught her hand before she fell.

"Don't look down Tomoyo!" He cried and tried to pull her up. Tomoyo shook her head and looked straight into his eyes.

"Iie!" She shook her body.

"What the heck are you doing Tomoyo!" He asked. "We're gonna die if you keep doing that!"

"Let go of me Eriol!" She shouted to him.

"What?"

"Let go of me!" She tried to get her hand away from his grip. "Let go! I hate you remember! Darn it!"

Eriol held her tighter and cried, "I'm sorry ok? Gomenasai! Just don't let go! I'm sorry for all what I've said! Ok, just don't do this; I don't want you to die!"
Tomoyo's eyes widened then, streams of tears suddenly appeared from her eyes. "Tch! Damn you! Darn it! Hell, just let go of me!"

"Whatever just don't let go!" He said.

"But," she thought and closed her eyes. "If I don't let go, we'll die together." She looked up to him. "He's already lying on the ground, just for me. If I continue this, we'll go together."

"Tomoyo!" He cried. "Don't let go!"

Tomoyo smiled and closed her eyes, "I'm sorry Eriol. But, you have to live." She mumbled under her breath and slipped her hand from his grip.

"Tomoyo!" He cried then suddenly jumped down with her. (MK: Kinda corny don't you think?) Her head was falling first so he embraced her and everything went blank….

"I-itaii…." A teen with long wavy midnight hair and deep amethyst eyes muttered as she rubbed the back of her head and sat up. "Ouch."

She looked at herself; she was covered with bruises, scars and scratches. "Ii-itai…" She mumbled again. She looked around her and wondered. "What happened? Where am I?" She blinked her eyes several times and everything rewind inside her head. Her eyes were wide open….

"Now I remember," she uttered. "I was dangling in mid air then……" She can feel her whole body shake slowly as she turned her head. Her eyes had the mixed expressions of worry, fright, gloom and pain as she turned her head. The feeling when you don't want to believe the fact that struck you out of nowhere…

"Iie…" She murmured as tears flooded her eyes once more, tears full of grief. "This is not true. It can't be." She shook her head several times, but, that horrible vision was still in front of her. She moved her body closer to it and covered her mouth with her hands as tears streamed on faster. "No…" She touched his gentle face and caressed it softly. "It can't be," she murmured once more. It had to be a dream! She's touching a simple vision. This day is just a dream! A male laid there, his eyes closed and his whole body battered by the wind pressure and full of bruises and scars.

She kept on crying as she touched his cheek. "Eriol, you idiot," She said to him. "Why the hell did you jump after me? Jeez Eriol, after all I did and said to you?" Her tears touched his skin as they continued on pouring like the stars in the Milky Way. "After all the crap I told you, of how I hated you, how I threw those trash to your face but you still held on my hand."

She started to cry harder, as she clenched her fist like she wanted to punch or slap him right now. "You know what?" She asked but her voice was shaky, you can really feel the pain and sorrow that surrounded her. "You're such an idiot Eriol. Yeah, a big stupid idiot. I can't believe you jumped just to save me, to prevent my body from crashing to the ground, that's why I felt something warm around me before I went blank." She paused. "Eriol! Dammit! Why the hell did you do that!"

"Do what?" A familiar voice replied to her, weakly. "What did I do wrong?"

"E-eriol?" She blinked several times, the tears from her eyes stopped, like it never appeared. "I-is that really you?"

"Yeah," he smiled sheepishly. "Who do you think it is?"

"Eriol!" She shouted out. "Eriol! Damn you!" She cried with a smile. (MK: Ok, so I wanted to make this a little weird!)

Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox

"Ii-itai…" Eriol said as he slowly rubbed the back of his head. "Ouch."

"Calm down Eriol," Tomoyo replied to him and helped his sit up. He placed his back on a huge rock behind him and managed as sigh. "Calm down, jeez."

Eriol laughed a bit, "Sorry there."

"Sorry for what?" She asked and placed her back on the left side of the rock. "I should be the one who's sorry you know that. I mean, for everything I said and done."

"No, I mean for earlier." He sighed once more. "You wouldn't have and said those things if I hadn't done those things before you. Gomenasai…"

Tomoyo blushed as he heard his words, he was quite something alright and he never fails to make her blush and feel all fluffy, fuzzy inside. "Eto…"

"Hmmm," he looked at the sky. "Ii-iitai…" He murmured softly.

"Eh?" She looked at him. "Daijoubu desu ka?"

"Ha-hai," he replied, though the forced smile was obvious to her. "Daijoubu."

"Iie, you're lying." She said and moved closer to him. "Eh?" She noticed blood drops coming from his knee. She gasped and looked at him, he was just smiling at her stupidly. "Eriol! Why didn't you tell me?"

"I-I well, I…" He murmured as a blush crept on his face. "Well…"

"Darn you Eriol," she said and ripped a cloth from her dress. She stood up, trying not to collapse from the pain in her.

"Where do you think you're going Tomoyo?" Eriol asked and looked at her. She smiled at him and nodded.

"Since you were such a hero earlier, might as be one myself." She then turned her back and she walked away. Feeling the pain of her legs, feet, but, she shook those thoughts away. It was for him, not for anyone else. She would even die for him.

"Tomoyo!" Eriol shouted at her. He tried to stand up but there was no use. "Tomoyo come back here!"

Even though she can here, even though tears started to trickle from her amethyst eyes, she smiled and shook her head. "Uruse Eriol… this is for you so stop blabbering." She murmured to herself, finally disappearing from his sight.

"Tomoyo!"
