The Problem From Within
Chapter 6: Why?
"She defeated all them?" Kero said, he couldn't believe that Sakura defeated ten clow cards.
"She didn't defeat them alone, Syaoran did more work than she did," Yue explained. (Technically Syaoran turned six clow cards into cards, and Sakura only turned four).
"You're right, as usual," Kero said, calming down.
"Though, I did know that those cards weren't going to defeat her," Yue said.
"How come?" Kero asked.
"She was once their master, my dear friend, she knows their weaknesses, and besides, Syaoran is much more powerful here, and that'll make it easier for Sakura to capture those cards. She'll use Syaoran, just like she did before," Yue said, his voice bitter.
"Yes, of course. She'll use all of them 'til she doesn't need them anymore, and toss them aside like she did before," Kero said, his voice also bitter.
"Do not worry, my dear friend, she is helping to destroy the one person who she wants the most," Yue said, an evil smirk planted on his face.
"Yes, she'll be her own demise," Kero said, laughing a little. "Should we now tell them?" Kero then asked.
"Yes, they should know now. We can tell them our plan, and see fit how to accomplish it," Yue replied.
So Yue and Kero left, heading toward 'their' castle.
"How's Tomoyo?" Sakura asked.
"She's a lot better now, she can even be able to leave the cave now," Eriol replied, looking at the sleeping Tomoyo in his arms.
"That's great!" Sakura said, happily.
"Yes, it's perfect timing," Meiling added.
"How is it perfect timing?" Sakura asked Meiling.
"We have to leave at dawn, our cave is no longer safe," Syaoran answered for Meiling.
"How come?" Sakura asked.
"How come!? The cards know where we are! That's how come!" Syaoran answered angrily.
"Sorry," Sakura whispered.
"Don't worry Sakura," Eriol said, patting her on the back. "Syaoran is just frustrated that the cards know where we are. He's not mad at you, right Syaoran?"
"Whatever," Syaoran muttered, before starting to pack his things.
"Umm, Syaoran?" Sakura asked, walking to him, so only he could hear.
"What!?" Syaoran asked, frustrated.
"Well, you see, I was wondering if maybe I could, you know…" Sakura started to say.
"Spit it out already!" Syaoran ordered.
"I want to go after Yue and Kero!" Sakura shouted.
Everyone froze and went silent. Syaoran was the first to get rid of the shock. "What!? Are you crazy!?" Syaoran asked back, also shouting.
"No! I think that Yue and Kero can tell me why they and the cards are doing this!" Sakura shouted back.
That's when Tomoyo woke up. (Though only Eriol noticed). "What's going on?" She asked.
"Sakura and Syaoran are having a argument," Eriol explained.
"How come?" Tomoyo asked.
"Sakura wants to go find Yue and Kero because she wants to know why they are sending cards to attack us," Eriol replied.
"Oh, ok," Tomoyo said. "QUIET!!!!!!!!!!!" She then shouted. Sakura and Syaoran stopped arguing, and everyone looked at her. "Now that I've got your attention, Sakura I want you to tell me why you want to talk to Yue and Kero," Tomoyo stated calmly.
"Well," Sakura started, a bit shocked how this Tomoyo could scream so loud, "You see, where I come from Yue and Kero were my guardians, and my friends. Since the cards remember who I am, then Yue and Kero must know too, so I want to find them and see why they would attack me," Sakura explained.
"Reasonable. Now Syaoran, tell me why you don't want Sakura to go," Tomoyo then said.
"She's being selfish," Syaoran said simply.
"What!? No I'm not!" Sakura shouted back.
"Quiet!" Tomoyo shouted again, but not as loud. That shut her up. "Syaoran, what are your reasons for saying that Sakura is being selfish?" Tomoyo asked.
"First of all, in her explanation, she didn't say one word about us, just talked all about herself. Plus she is now part of this group now, which means she has to consider the whole groups' welfare. That means if she went off to chase after Yue and Kero, which would most definitely mean death, we would have to go with her, and that means we're dead also. And we can't just leave her to die, so even if we wanted to, we couldn't let her go on her own. She can't go because I don't want the others to die because of her selfish wishes," Syaoran explained.
"W-what!?" Sakura yelled, she couldn't believe what she had just heard.
"True, very true," Tomoyo said, thinking.
"Sakura, if you want to go after Yue and Kero, you can, we won't stop you," Eriol said, Tomoyo nodding her head in agreement.
"But," Syaoran started.
"No buts Syaoran, if Sakura wants to go, she can go. We'll leave without her. She has only been here with us for about, what, two weeks? She has taken our kindness, and spit on it. She can leave right now," Eriol said.
Sakura started to cry. Why would they abandon her? She helped them capture the clow cards, and helped with finding the food. She deserved to be here more than anyone else here! She thought.
"No you don't," Eriol said. Sakura's eyes widened. "I can read minds Sakura, and you only deserve to leave without us hurting you, so go."
So Sakura left, and she saw that even if Syaoran hated her, he didn't want her to die, but Eriol and Tomoyo stopped him. Fine! If they don't want me, then I can find Yue and Kero all by my self! Sakura thought bitterly.
She then left and never once looked back.
