APOLOGY: I'm sorry for not updating in like aeons! I mean I've been so wrapped up in work and then last week I got sick and then there's that matter of not having Internet access and all this crap. And I've had writer's block so now I've got the juices flowing!

So the week's had gone by and no sign of Fujitaka or Emerson. Things were peachy in the Li townhouse, where Sakura and Syaoran resided. Strangely enough the two totally dropped the subject of the kidnapping of their daughter and decided to focus on all three of their kids. (At the moment I don't remember the name's I gave the kids)

Since they had plenty of help from the family, Syaoran thought that it would be a great time for Sakura to start taking some college courses. Of course she wouldn't be leaving the house, they had agreed on the Internet courses. It was going to be good in the long run.

Sakura had finally decided on two things, and they kind of disturbed her. She was going to take a class on botany and herblism. Also on ancient artifacts. The thing that was kind of ironic was that her father had been an archeologist and her mother a gardener. That didn't mean that she would end up like her father. No way would she allow her self to become a psychotic person. It was just that she was honest to God interested in these subjects.

That's what she kept telling herself. She wouldn't fret about this. Especially since everyone had babies, and the entire family being bonkers over them. Touya and Mei Lin had left for Italy to elope. They had also planned to have the baby out there during their "honeymoon". Plus there was Tomoyo and Eriol who had the twin girls to watch over. (Forgot the names.)

Thankfully Syaoran had had the foresight to build a nursery with many cribs, a toy box, cubbies, so that the little tykes, whichever ones happened to be over, could take a nice rest and play. And since Tomoyo was around frequently enough it came quite in handy.

Syaoran had more things weighing on his mind though. He had received word that they had found something interesting in Fujitaka's brain. After many complex MRI's and CT scans they had come across a chip in his head. When they had removed it they were able to see that it was very foreign. It seemed that it was written in some kind of hieroglyphics. But that wasn't the big thing. The big thing was that Fujitaka had stopped showing strange brain waves. He had also changed to what seemed to be normal behavior. So they decided to put him to work.

Sadly enough Syaoran didn't know what that work was. It was going to be a tough nut to shell, but he didn't want anyone in his family getting harmed.

Well that wasn't likely, since everyone was everywhere. Except the women in the Li family. They were all more than gladly able to take care of the triplets and twins, whenever Tomoyo or Sakura needed a break. Which was a bonus for the girls but it didn't give them the full picture of motherhood. It wasn't like they didn't appreciate the help, but it just wasn't what they had imagined.

Now on Sakura's end, she was prepared for her net course in archeology. She logged on and put the headset on. Part would be typing and the other Internet phone. She got her account started and then entered the virtual classroom, where apparently there were 9 other students. The lecture was about to begin.

Professor Takafuji has entered the classroom.

That's what showed up on the screen. Sakura didn't take much notice to the name. Then a speaker phone thing popped up on her screen and she accepted. She assumed it would be the lecture first and then post quiz.

As the class went on the voice was soothing and seemed quite familiar. She couldn't put her finger on it either. But as she listened her mind was taken to a completely different time.

Now Sakura, when handling ancient artifacts such as these pots, we must take great care. They are hundreds of years old and you must not handle them with much vigor. Now here we will carefully transplant this seedling into the pot of fertilizer. Yes that's great! A nice flower, the flower of your dear mother. Oh Sakura you are so much like her. She misses you so much, as do I! Now you need to make sure you water all of this and take care of it. When I leave for my dig you'll be responsible for it.

She snapped out of it when Syaoran walked by and saw the screen flashing. Well he had actually stopped because he saw his love crying and he just couldn't figure it out. "Kura, are you okay? You're crying."

She turned to him, kind of in a daze and stared at him with a far off look still remaining in her hazel eyes. "My father…" she whispered before blacking out.

"Mother, come help. Bring Tomoyo. I need her to log her out of her class. Kura has fainted, we need to take her to the doctor!" Syaoran said as his mother and friend rushed into the room.

A/N: Okay so it was short but the next chapter will be all in Sakura's memories. I can't remember her mom's name. Erg. Well w/e. I hope you like it. I just couldn't figure it all out! I've been so busy with work and now with my cosplay and conventions and school, it's been very crazy. Plus I've been sick! Review pleeze!
