Breathe in.

Breathe in.

Breathe out.

Breathe….

IT'S NOT WORKING! WHY ON EARTH AM I TRYING TO OUTRUN AN FREAKIN' SPORTS CAR?!??!?!?

I swear that thing is teasing me!! The car is keeping its distance and I know it can go a heck of a lot faster!!

Hey, why am I holding Tomoyo's camera?

OH! A GREAT IDEA JUST POPPED!

I stopped running, then turned around and waved the camera up high in the air. I smiled as the car came faster. I dropped the camera on the road and ran off.

I could hear that car screeching to a stop. I think Tomoyo was screaming.

A CHANCE!!!

RUN!

FASTER!

HURRY!

AM I AN IDIOT?!

I just heard the car start up again!

DANG IT! I HATE MY LEGS!

Oh, if I can't outrun a car, I can outsmart it!

I ran off the road and went into the forest that was there all the time. The car must've stopped again since I heard Tomoyo and Eriol speaking to each other. I was long gone.

I have no clue as to where I am going, but I don't really care.

I AM NOT ABOUT TO MEET THE EGO MANIAC!

Ooo, lookit! My house! I've forgotten my backyard was the forest itself! I rejoice happily and bounced up and down.

If only I didn't hear any twigs behind me. I screamed my ass off.

I also ran my ass off and went to the driveway.

But stopped.

There…

Was a….

Silver….

Car.

I froze and couldn't move. I gaped as the passenger side opened. I held my breath in.

Out came a leg.

Then another.

And a…

White bun? No, two white buns.

"Sakura!" said a white-bun lady and closed the door. I slumped to the ground.

"Meiling?" I questioned, not believing my eyes. Tomoyo appeared behind me and Eriol came out of the car too.

"Wait, you remember Meiling?" Tomoyo was panting. She must've been the one behind me.

I could not speak.

"Why were you running?" asked Eriol. He seemed to have been laughing, seeing left over tears in his eyes.

I still wasn't speaking.

"Sakura?" Meiling came over and nudged me. I was looking straight ahead.

"Meiling…" my voice croaked," Were you in the car the whole time?"

She slowly nodded her head. I blinked.

I ran all the way from Tomoyo's house to here…

Because I thought HE was in the car?

For some reason, I'm kinda disappointed.

And, of course, being so much like the girl I am,

I fainted.

"Is she okay?" asked some random voice. I realized it was Touya's.

"Yes, it seems she overworked herself," said another person. It sounded like a doctor. I groaned and tried opening my eyes.

"What happened?" I sat up and saw Tomoyo, Meiling, Eriol, Dad, Kaho, Touya, and a white coated guy.

"You blacked out," Dad said, and he thanked the white-coated guy and escorted him out Touya's house. Kaho sighed in relief and walked out with Dad.

Tomoyo came over and took my hand," Don't ever run like that again!"

"Yeah, you, uh, worried us there," Meiling bit her lip. I shook my head.

"Why? I only fainted," I stood up and stretched.

"Oh, sure, like that time when you 'fainted' when the lighting struck you?" Eriol pounded his fist on a table.

I gaped at him," How did you know about that? I've never seen you in my life!"

" I was ther-" Eriol started to say, until Touya knocked on his head.

"Quit talking. All of you have to help out, now," he ordered, and went out.

Everyone stayed quiet, and I knew they were hiding something from me.

Once we were all outside, Eriol, Touya, and Dad went to the fallen trees. Meiling, Tomoyo, and I went to the road and started picking up huge branches. The town was a real mess.

"Hey, Sakura," Tomoyo was holding a bag," you remember Meiling?"

"Yeah! She came over a longgggg time ago, right Meiling?" I dropped all of the branches I had in my hands in the bag.

Meiling nodded," You've changed, Sakura."

She spoke softly.

Weird.

"Meiling, are you okay?" I walked over and went up to her face.

"I'm fine!" she snapped. Now, that's more like her.

But something's eating her. Something's troubling Tomoyo too.

"Okay, spit it, you two. What's up?" I crossed my hands as I said that.

Meiling and Tomoyo glanced at each other. They were saying something and they didn't let me hear it.

"Um," Meiling started, unsure.

"Sakura, you don't know Eriol?" Tomoyo asked. I shook my head.

"No. I don't think so," I said, trying to think," Since when did you two go on a first name basis?"

Tomoyo looked down," I've…seen him a couple of times."

"That don't explain nothing. I've met the guy twice and I still call him by his last name. I think Touya and Dad know him too." I muttered and went back to picking up the long sticks.

Meiling and Tomoyo looked at each other, again! Why is everyone hiding stuff from me?

"Tomoyo, I'm gonna crash at your house. I'll just walk back," I decided, since it seems these two really need to talk.

"No, wait. I can drive you back," Tomoyo offered. She had Eriol's keys, which I thought was funny.

We rode the car in silence. When I arrived at her house, I stretched to make her believe me," I'm gonna go to sleep. See you later?"

"Bye," she nodded, and drove off. I stared at the road before going in. Just this morning, that girl forced me to work. Now, she lets me sleep?

I sigh as I went up the stairs.

Normal POV

When Tomoyo came back, she slammed the door of the car shut as she went out.

"Hey, don't hurt my car!" Eriol shouted while smiling. He was carrying a tree trunk over to a big truck. Meiling was sitting on top of the other trees that were already put there, staring.

"What's wrong?" he asked. Tomoyo sighed.

"Do you think she should see him?" she asked. Eriol put the trunk down and ran his hand through his hair.

"Why do you ask that?"

"I just dropped her off my house," Tomoyo replied. Meiling stared at Tomoyo.

"WHAT? I THOUGT YOU WERE GOING TO TAKE HER HOME!" Meiling shouted down.

"Her house is right there! She's staying at mine because there's no electricity. Didn't I tell you that?" Tomoyo yelled back.

Eriol blinked," Does she know we're staying at your house?"

Tomoyo slapped her forehead," Great."

"Thought so," Eriol mumbled.

"I hope Mother can handle them," Tomoyo put her head in between her legs. Eriol patted her back.

"Actually, I hope your house will still be standing when we get back," Meiling growled as she climbed down.

Tomoyo laughed at the joke, then laughed some more. Eriol and Meiling stared at her.

"Tomoyo?" Eriol raised a brow.

"It wasn't that funny," Meiling scratched her head. Tomoyo kept on laughing.

"Wow, I am so good," Tomoyo told herself," I just remembered that the time you guys showed up on the road, my mom has a conference on the other side of Japan and wouldn't be back 'till tomorrow."

Her words sunk in to Eriol and Meiling.

"WHAT?!"

Back to me

This house is a big house. It's a huge house.

It's a creepy house.

I ran all the way to my room once I heard some rattling in the kitchen. I also locked myself in.

Coming back to Tomoyo's house is a very bad idea.

I thought all the maids and servants were off today! They're supposed to be helping Tomoeda!

And it can't be Sonomi. Her car's not here.

So, who is it?

Well, I'm not about to find out, I'm too scared to go out there!

I leaned against the door and panted. I closed my eyes when I heard nothing and sat down, still leaning.

Footsteps echoed as they went up the stairs. I shivered and goosebumps appeared on my arms.

Something clicked above me. I looked up.

SOMEONE WAS TRYING TO OPEN MY DOOR!

I growled and went over to the bathroom. There was a long, metal stick sitting in the corner.

This guy is so gonna die.

Yay, that rhymed!

Just when I had built up confidence, the door rumbled. I yelped and ran to the farthest corner in the room.

Come on! I have a metal stick! I can beat the guy up!

I walked slowly to my door, which had stopped shaking. Taking a deep breath, I unlocked my door and swung it open.

My stick fell to the ground.

There was no one there.

My heart was beating fast; I dropped to the ground beside my stick and placed a hand over my heart.

"Is someone there?" a deep voice said from the other side of the hallway.

Um…

I screamed.

Normal POV

"Did you hear that?" Meiling looked out to Tomoyo's mansion.

Tomoyo sighed," Yep. Definitely Sakura."

"Come on!" Eriol went out of the car and so did the other two. They ran to the front door, only to find it locked.

There was another scream coming from inside.

"That was Sakura's again!" Tomoyo ran to the backyard and found an open window.

Meiling followed Tomoyo inside," He is so going to get it when I see him," she threatened.

A scream came from upstairs, and Sakura ran down.

"TOMOYO!"

oh, dont forget!! you guys are allowed to guess who it was!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
