A/N: Thank you for all of your supportive reviews, everyone!

"You are to track him down and kill him." A
woman sitting on a throne said, remnants of a meal sat on a table
next to her.
"But. Why would he betray the country?" A
dark haired girl spoke sincerely; her knees bent in a royal kneel.
"You dare question our authority?" A man
retorted to the girl, sitting next to the woman.
"No, Sir Li." The black girl responded,
bowing her head.
"His current location is in Japan, Tomedeo
city. Find him. Kill him. And kill everyone he knows." The woman
spoke coldly.
"Why the oth-" The black haired girl was
cut off by screaming coming from somewhere in the room.
"Girl, if you test our patience one more
time, I will kill them." The woman glared.
The black haired girl looked up, horror in her
eyes, "I-I'm sorry, I'll get going."
"Bring us back his head, Mei-ling." The man
said, before the door behind the black haired girl closed.
-
-
The knife was pulled,
slightly stained with blood.
"..So. You were
lying?" Syaoran said, not even attempted to stop the blood flowing
from his stomach.
Mei-ling solemnly
looked up, her response deafened out by screaming.
-
Sakura yawned, an empty
lunch box before her.
"My Sakura, you were
really hungry today." Tomoyo said, not even half finished with
hers.
"I don't know why,
but its like im eating for two people now. im always so hungry."
Sakura said, shrugging.
"Oh.." Tomoyo said,
as a chestnut haired boy with a turtle walked past them.
"It's Li." Sakura
said, getting up, "Lets see if he wants to have lunch with us
again."
"Sakura Sakura
Sakura, always being so nice." Tomoyo said, smiling."I'll be back!"
Sakura said, smiling.
Sakura neared the Oak
tree, and walked up behind Mei-ling. "Syaoran, Mei-lin..."
Sakura stopped, her
eye-catching sight of the knife dug into Syaoran's stomach.
Horror curdled in her
throat, she couldn't stand it.
She screamed.
-
Syaoran's eyes
widened, realizing the voice, "Kinomoto!"
Mei-ling looked behind
her, and glared, tightening the grip on the knife, "I'll have no
problem killing you though, Kinomoto."
Sakura started to back
up, "Wha.. What's going.."
Mei-ling grabbed the
knife again, "I'm sorry, but its for my family."
Sakura turned, and
tried to run, but the Black haired girl grabbed her arm.
"I'm sorry, really,
but it's for the best." Mei-ling said again, raising the knife
into the air.
Sakura screamed one
last time.
And finally. the
screaming died out.
-
"Haha.. Watch this." The turtle said to the snake, standing on the top of the roof, his flippers raised in the air to balance him.
"You the turtle!" The snake said, red glistening on his scaly cheeks.
"Oh shit." Mizukami muttered, his flipper slipping.
"You can fly!" the snake exclaimed, as the turtle fell off the roof.
"Lookit below!" Mizukami cried.
-
Sakura stopped screaming, realizing that Mei-ling had stopped her assault.
Mei-ling stopped,
Syaoran holding her hand, two of his right fingers pressed up against
her neck.
Mei-ling tried to shift
her movement, but Syaoran's fingers dug deeper into her neck."Move, and I'll
snap it in half." Syaoran said.
"You don't
understand, Syaoran! They'll kill my famil-" Mei-ling was cut off
the fingers digging deeper into her neck.
"They told you to eliminate everyone i know, correct?" Syaoran responded, coldly.
"..Y..Yes" Mei-ling choked out, through the pressure on her neck."Then
they'll kill you and your family as well. anyone that has had contact
with me in the last few weeks, and anyone who has had contact with
anyone i've had contact with in the last few weeks."
"Y-You're lying!"
Mei-ling yelled back at him."You're willing to
kill people for your own selfish reasons?" Syaoran hissed.
"Bu.." Mei-ling
tried to respond.
"Shut up, you're
not the Mei-ling I know, you're a snotty brat that would gladly-"
Mei-ling disappeared, into thin air.
Syaoran's arms went
back down to his side, despite the growing pain in his stomach.
Sakura got concern in
her eyes, "What happened? what's going on?"
Syaoran opened his
mouth to respond, but it shut...And he fell over, into a little
puddle of his own blood.
--
A/N: Okay.. Not very epic, but I promise epic.. Soon.
--
Syaoran's eyes
opened, he couldn't see anything, obviously, but he heard a slight
scraping noise. the type that is like a turtle shell scratching along
a-
"Why the hell are you
hanging on the ceiling?" Syaoran said, his blank eyes staring
forward, despite the turtle being above Syaoran.
"Grandma!" The
turtle cried, falling from the ceiling, and onto the bed where
Syaoran lay.
"...What the hell?"
Syaoran said, grabbing Mizukami by the flippers.
Mizukami wiggled in
Syaoran's grasp. "L'emme go! BUGGER!"
Syaoran sighed, letting
go of the turtle, and realizing his second guest.
"Who's there?"
Syaoran said, "I can hear your breathing."
-
Crimson spread across
Sakura's cheeks when Syaoran acknowledged she was there.
"S...Sakura." She
spoke, her voice quiet.
"Kinomoto?" Syaoran
responded.
"Sa-Ku-Raga!" Mizu
cried, falling off the bed.
"Mizu-Chan!" Sakura
cried, getting up from her seat and running to the turtle.
"He's alr..."
Syaoran got a serious look on his face, "How do you know about
Mizukami?"
"I know everything,
Syaoran...It's alright if you like to dress around in dresses
sometimes." Sakura said, placing her hand on Syaoran's shoulder,
"There's-"
Syaoran hit her hand
off of his shoulder, and snarled, "Don't listen to that little
turtle! He lies!"
Sakura blinked, "Uh..Hum.. Then what is really going on?"
