AN: This is a really old story I started to write a long time ago, but I have nothing else to post right now, so I will post this one. If I seem to get good reviews, then I will possibly try to continue, but if I don't get god reviews, I won't. This is my first story, so please, no flames!

Without a Name

Sakura held the bear close. She looked up at Li as he disappeared into the crowds at the airport. As she was turning to leave, Li looked back. He caught a glimpse of the tears in her eyes, and quickly lowered his head and walked away.

4 years later, Li was lying in bed in his apartment in Hong Kong. He was having trouble sleeping again. He was concentrating on nothing in particular when, all of a sudden, he sensed a familiar aura. He got up quickly, dressed, and ran outside with his sword in hand. He raced towards the place where the aura seemed to be coming from, and stopped short at the edge of the park. There stood a girl, about his age from what he could tell, facing towards the swings, away from him so he couldn't see her face.

Why would anyone be here at this hour? he thought. She turned quickly and saw him, looking him up and down before turning around completely to face him. Li couldn't figure out who it was, although he knew that she was familiar somehow. She obviously doesn't know who I am. She should if she has magical powers. I can sense a very strong power coming from her. he thought.

He seems familiar somehow, but I'm looking for Li." thought the girl.

They stood there facing each other for a long time. Neither knew who the other one was, and neither wanted to be the first to speak. Another failed attempt. I'm never going to find him. thought the girl sadly. Finally, she could not hold it back any longer. She burst into tears and collapsed onto the nearby swing.

Li recognized her now. "Sakura?" he asked tentatively. She looked up in surprise.

How does he know my name? I don't know who he is, do I? She thought. "Sakura, is that you?" She recognized something in his voice. "Li?" It can't be Then she saw his sword. "Li! It is you!" Sakura cried joyously.

Li smiled. "Sakura!" She ran up to him and flung her arms around him. "I've missed you so much. I can't even begin to tell you how much I've missed you!" She said. Li was taken aback; Sakura had never done this before. His instincts took over, and he gently put his arms around her and leaned his head down. "I've missed you too" He whispered in her ear. They stood like that in silence for a long time, until Li spoke what he was thinking.

"Why did you come?" "I wanted to see you." Sakura replied. All of a sudden, there was a small pop from where Sakura's bag was by the swings. They both turned to see what it was, to find Kero was watching them. "Kero! What are you doing here!" Sakura said in surprise. "I wanted to see where you were headed in the middle of the night." Said Kero. "Hey, who are you?" Kero flew out from the bag and circled Li, inspecting him cautiously. He didn't want some guy hurting Sakura.

"Well, you haven't changed a bit." Said Li. "Huh? Hey! Waddya mean I haven't changed!" Kero looked angrily at Li. "Wait a sec…. now I know who you are… I haven't seen you in a while, kid." Kero said, smirking evilly. Li tweaked. "STOP CALLING ME KID!" he roared. "I'll call you whatever Sakura wants me to call you." Replied Kero calmly.

"Guys, this is old. Can't we get over it and just get along? Kero, please call him Li, and Li, please calm down, he's only teasing. He knows you don't like it when he calls you kid." Sakura pleaded with both of them.

"Alright" They both replied reluctantly. Sakura sighed. Another fight prevented for the time being "Kero, you can go home now. You know where I am and that I'm safe. Ok?"

"Alright. But be home soon. Or at least use the Time Card." Said Kero. He started to fly away, but turned back suddenly and said "And if he tries anything on you, call me and I will KICK HIS ASS!" Sakura looked embarrassed, and shoed Kero away without another word.

Sakura and Li watched Kero fly away, and when she was sure he was out of sigh, let out a breath of relief. She then turned to Li. "I have something to show you." She said. She went over to her bag by the swings and rustled around in it, looking for something. I wonder what his reaction will be when I show him this. Sakura thought.

I wonder what it could be. Li thought. He tried to push any dirty thoughts from his mind. Sakura wasn't like that, was she? Sakura found what she was looking for and came back towards Li. It looked like she was holding a card. A card? What's so special about a card? We collected all of them together I thought, and she transformed all of them, right? She stopped right in front of him, looking at her feet.

"I found this after you left, all those years ago. When I went home, I found this in the book…" she whispered. Now he was intrigued. What could this be? She looked up into his eyes, her sadness clearly reflected in them. "I call it the nameless card, because it has no name on it." Sakura said.

Li looked down at her, slightly confused. "What do you mean?" "It has no name on it…" she said again. He paused, then whispered to her, "Show me." Sakura looked down again, this time at the card in her hands. She flipped it over, so he could see it clearly. He looked down at the card in her hands. On it was a heart, with two wings going up and down the card in opposite directions. On the bottom, where there should have been a name, it was blank. Li looked back up at Sakura.

"What does it mean?" he asked slowly. "I was hoping that maybe… well, you could tell me. I don't understand it either." Sakura said, looking back up at him. He took the card from her, examining it carefully.

After a long pause, he sighed and looked back at her. "This has been an emotional night for both of us already. Why don't you come back to my place, and we can discuss this better in the morning, after a good rest, hm?"

AN: Ok, so? What did ya think? R&R please and thankies!
