Sorry for the wait....I'm not dead, but my internet connection probably is.....

"What time is it?" Sakura wondered out loud as she got out of bed that morning. Her whole body was in pain, but not as bad as last week had been.
She walked down the stairs, dressed in this world's clothes, which were pretty normal, to find her traveling companions eating breakfast.
"Sakura's awake!" Mokona announced. "Yo," Kurogane acknowledged the princess. "Good Morning," Fye muttered. "Morning," Syaoran waved. Sakura smiled weakly and sat down. She helped herself to some coffee (decaffeinated, you don't wanna know how Sakura gets when she's caffeinated).
"The contest is in two days. The preliminary is early in the morning, so we have to wake up really early. The actual contest starts at 8:00 PM and ends pretty late," Syaoran explained, reading the entry form.
"How early?" Kurogane asked. "We should wake up at 6:30. The prelim starts at 7:30," Syaoran said.
Sakura frowned. She usually slept in. "And, we have to do costume preparations and figure out who's singing," Syaoran said. "Costumes?" Mokona asked.
"Yeah, I don't think anyone will walk up on stage wearing sweats," Syaoran said logically.
"What's wrong with what I'm wearing now?" Sakura asked. She was wearing a knee-length black skirt and a long sleeved black shirt with long black boots. The country's clothes were mostly black.
"Nothing, really," Syaoran didn't want to anger the princess. "But we want to make a good impression on the judges right? We could wear what we're wearing right now, but we could add belts, studs, chains, stuff that would make us stand out," Syaoran offered.
"Were would we get chains and all that stuff?" Sakura asked. "We'll do some shopping, tomorrow, and we'll do some serious practicing today," Syaoran started picking up his bass from the closet.
"That means it's Sakura's turn to sing!" Mokona bounced onto Sakura's shoulder. She grimaced, but it turned into a smile as soon as she came in contact with Mokona.
"Sakura, I've got two songs for you, which do you want to sing?" Mokona held to sheets of music up. One read 'You are My Love,' while the other one read 'Amrita.' "Are you sure there aren't any others?" Sakura asked.
They were too gentle for the way she was feeling now (wow, that made no sense).
"Mokona has a song called 'Jasmine,'" Mokona held up the sheet music for it. "That one sounds nice, I'll sing it," Sakura read over the lyrics.
She positioned herself with her guitar in front of the microphone.
Jasmin
Jibun ga kuyashikute kuchibiru kamu toki wa

"Sakura's voice is so pretty!" Mokona kissed the Princess' cheek. "Nice," Kurogane grunted. Fay nodded. "Yeah," Syaoran shrugged.
"Sing another!" Mokona held out another paper. "This one has a gentle voice! It's called Amrita!" Mokona said.
"Why do you want me to sing another?" Sakura asked. "You could be the singer for our band!" Mokona lifted her paws.
"Well," Sakura pondered. "Pweeeaasse?" Mokona whined. "Sure!" Sakura said. She repositioned herself and heard violin. She looked over and saw Mokona holding a violin.
"Moko-chan, you can play the violin?" Sakura asked surprisingly. "Yep! It's one of Mokona's 108 Secret Skills!" Mokona said.
The group retried that.
Amrita

Sakura took a deep breath.
"We have our singer!" Mokona started clapping, followed by Syaoran and Fye. Kurogane was too 'cool' to clap/
"Gee, thanks, Moko-chan," Sakura said tiredly.
"So, what are we gonna play for the contest?" Kurogane asked. "This! Yuuko said we just gotta play this!" Mokona held a paper out with its stubby paw.
"Synchronicity?" Syaoran asked. "It fits the theme of this world! The clothes and styles are gothic, and this song is awesome! Perfect match!"
"Well, let's try it out!" Sakura said, gaining some of her old peppiness back.
Syaoran, Kurogane, Fye, and Mokona smiled. 'She's smiling, that's good,' Syaoran though to himself.

Two or three more chapters than it's done! C!Syaoran will appear later on in the story! I don't know why, but I love that clone! (Even if he did eat Fye's eye). Yeah, Fye didn't speak much, but that was because I was trying to balance things out. Fye already had a huge back-story in the last chapter.
