Syaoran looked at Yuki, then he glanced at Kero and Yukito. He's eyes seemed to be saying, Is it ok to tell her the truth now? Kero and Yukito nodded. It was time for Syaoran to explain the story of her mother's past.

"Yuki..." he said slowly. He's eyes was still swolen and red from crying. Yuki looked up at her father. Her eyes was red and swollen too.

"Dad. Was that really mum? And what did mum mean when she said that she had embraced her destiny?" she asked.

Syaoran took a deep breath. And started to explain.

"Your mother and I in elementary school was rivals to begin with. We were fighting to gather the scattered Clow cards. Each had magic in them in, without the magic, the clow cards are just... well cards with pretty pictures. But, then since me and your mum was rivalling each other, on the race for us to get more Clow cards. I kind of fell for her." He said admittly blushing.

Kero snickered and Yue shot him a look. Kero stopped snickering an rearranged his face to look cool and calm. Syaoran ignored this and went on with the story.

"How ever, Meiling didn't at first like the fact that me and Sakura was going out with each other, she thought that Sakura was out to get me." He paused. "But we managed to prove to her that we loved each other."

"I think we are getting a little side tracked here..." muttered Kero.

Syaoran looked at Kero in surprise than he glanced at Yuki, Yuki did looked kind of confused. So Syaoran rearranged his thoughts in order to explain to Yuki what was her mother's destiny.

"Sakura finally managed to gather all the Sakura Cards, but she also had to pass a test. Which Yue had imposed on her. To prove that she was a good mistress of the cards. She had passed the test with the help of Ms. Misuke's moon bell. We thought that was it." continued Syaoran.

"Until I came into the picture," said Eriol with a smile.

Syaoran looked shocked, that he almost fell of his chair. Eriol looked mildly amused at Syaoran's facial expression. He seated himself into a chair and took up from where Syaoran was interrupted.

"I had come back, not to sabotage Sakura's title as Card Captor, but more of helping her to change the cards, so that the magic would stay in the card, and it wouldn't lose it's magic. However, Syaoran saw me as a bad person."

Syaoran muttered something about not really knowing why Eriol was testing Sakura.

"But, that's the past." said Eriol "Right now, we need to know who is behind this..."

Just then, a maid entered with tea and cakes. She gave out the tea, according to the colour of each tea cup. Then bowing she stepped out of the room. Syaoran having dismissed the maid from the room. Took his tea cup and sipped his tea. Having just sipped, he collapsed on to the floor. Eriol and Yuki dropped their tea cups and ran to Syaoran who was on the floor.

"Dad!" she yelled, she felt her eyes sting. She was crying again.

"Syaoran, wake up!" yelled Eriol.

"Dad... please don't leave me like mum had left me..." sobbed Yuki as she sat next to his body.

Yukito, ran to call an ambulance, while Yuki and Eriol was trying to wake Syaoran up. Today, in the eyes of Yuki was meant to be one of her best days, but now it felt as if the world was about to collapse.
