A/N: I know this is short, but the story is finally at an end :) It probably seems a bit rushed though.. Please give some feedback on how I could improve!
Chapter 10:
Sakura stared at the Syaoran look-alike in front of her. "What seal?" she asked curiously.
He stared at her, seemingly dazed, but then shook his head. "There's no time." He said, and rushed off. Sakura hurried after him, her legs struggling to keep up with his longer ones. They ran through the hallways: left, right, right; Sakura was soon lost in the maze of hallways. Finally, Syaoran stopped next to a set of familiar doors. It was where Fei Wang Reed was.
Instantly, she knew something was wrong. It was quiet… too quiet in fact. Syaoran burst into the room with Sakura right behind him. In the few seconds that their surprise entrance created, Sakura observed several things at once. First of all, Satsuki was clutching Elizabeth and cowering in a corner of the room. In the middle was the whole Tsubasa gang along with Tomoyo (with her video camera of course), Shaoran, Kero, and Yue. And lastly, there was something severely wrong with Syaoran. He was bent over with his hand on his face.
Suddenly, he straightened up and Sakura jerked back in horror. His eyes had an oddly blank look in them, as if he had no soul. He stared at them dully with no recognition on his face. Distantly, she could hear Fei Wang Reed laughing in the background.
"Finally, my plan is coming together." He smirked. A portal appeared in the space in front of him. "Well? Get to it." He ordered Syaoran.
There was a cry from the middle of the room. Sakura-hime stumbled forwards and grabbed Syaoran's arm as he was about to walk into the portal. Was it just her or did she see something flicker in his eyes? But the moment passed and he wrenched his arm out of her grip.
"And you, Sakura-hime and Sakura," said Fei Wang Reed, "You'll be coming with us."
He reached for them, but in the same moment Satsuki ran forwards and knocked into her father. Startled, he staggered a few steps. His face filled with fury. "You!" he yelled. "You worthless thing! I care for you and this is the repayment I get?" Without any further thought, a gleaming sword appeared from the folds of his shirt.
Blood splattered the walls. Sakura froze in horror as she watched the now lifeless body of her friend pitch forward in what seemed like slow motion. Fei Wang Reed turned towards her. In that same instant, she felt Shaoran grab her arm as Mokona transported them forwards, to wherever they were going next.
The next thing she knew, she had tumbled onto the concrete. Shaoran wrapped an arm around her and she sobbed into his chest. This was too much, after everything that happened. Sakura felt a hand on her shoulder. It was Fai.
"We still need to search for Sakura-hime's feathers." He said gently. "Are you staying here?"
The girl looked around her: she was in Tomoeda. Sakura nodded mutely and gave the older man a hug to show her appreciation. Kurogane came over and ruffled her hair. "Don't over stress yourself, kid" He said gruffly. Sakura gave him a watery smile. And that left Syaoran and Sakura standing there.
"Good luck." She said, to both of them. Without further notice, they were gone. Sakura stood there for what was ages until she felt a gently tugging on her arm. It was Shaoran.
"Come one." He said. "Let's go home."
"Home." She agreed.
The story is finished! Please review, for the last time~ ^^
