Like I said before, don't worry there will be a happy ending, if not in this story but in the sequel and I am not saying this because of the numerous death threats that I received because i could take all of you on… but you know If you really hate me that bad and persist on sending me these death threats, hehe, then I could always just end this story and kill both of them… hehe Sometimes I couldn't really tell which ones of you were joking when you said you wanted to kill me!

Oh yeah! And thanx for the flames guys I really fucking appreciate it.. This is my story I can do what I want. Personally I like how it is going. I'm not really talking about anyone in particular :cough:lazinlonelyrei:cough: It's reviewers like you that authors wanna kill!

I know that I said you can review and take your anger out on me but I didn't expect this much hate mail! I mean I went from 0 to 40 flames over night!

On the happy side thankyou to the one or two reviewers that actually liked the chapter you know who you are.

And yes I am an S+S fan! Why do people keep asking me that?

For the people who still want to read this chapter: Here it is.

Chapter23: The Awakening…

My eyes shot open as I awoke from my dream. Once again it was of Sakura waking up and everything was ok. But I knew it would never be ok.

She had been on the verge of consciousness for just over a week now and I hadn't left the hospital once for that whole time in fear that she could wake up and I wouldn't be there.

I had to lie to the staff at the hospital and say that I was her husband so that they would let me stay.

It's funny, most of my life I had dreamless nights and I hated it. Now that I actually do dream, I don't want them. You see, seeing Sakura in my dreams gave me what seemed to be false hope and the doctor made me well aware of the fact that Sakura may never wake up again. He told me that there was a 30 percent chance that she would wake up, but even if she did wake up she could suffer from amnesia.

I didn't care. I just want her alive. I will love her no matter what happens.

Flashback.

"You are going to pay" I hissed, sending a chilling glare at him. OOHH! If looks could kill.

'It's go time' I thought as I stood up still letting the tears run down my cheeks.

I took out my sword and got into a fighting stance.

He did the same. At first it was just a glaring contest but then I was the first one to attack.

I moved forward, swiftly, yelling all the way.

I struck at him with my blade and he blocked it. He turned around and I was now stuck between the guy and the wall, so I took a quick corse of action and ran up the wall and flipped off so that I was behind him. Then he took me by surprise and stabbed in my left arm without turning around. Luckily I'm right handed.

I groaned in pain as he took out his sword as he backed away. I held my wound.

I ran up to him and we then clashed and neither of us backed down. We each kept taking swing after swing. We both gave each other little cuts but nothing major.

Many emotions were rushing through me; sorrow, anger, pain but most of all anger. I couldn't explain how I felt. I mean how did you explain to someone how it feels to lose the love of your life? Your one true love. Many words come to mind.

He took a huge swing at my head but I blocked it with my sword.

"What do you want? Why are you doing this?" I asked, anger surging in me.

"Oh, it's not what I want." The man said and pulled his blade away. With both stepped back and began to fight once again.

"What do you mean by that?" I boomed.

"I'm just doing what my master tells me to do"

"Who is your master?"

"Oh? You don't know yet?" He asked tilting his head.

"If I knew I wouldn't be asking now would I?" I asked sarcastically.

He lunged forward and I did a forward block. He then twisted my sword out of my hands and I was left weaponless.

But then I remember the gun I had. I got it out and pulled the trigger.

CLICK.

Ah crap there was no ammo!

I thew the gun away and turned to plan b. I got in a fighting stance. He swung at me but I dodged it. I kept dodging all his swings, he then took a stab at my head so I bent over backwards and did a backwards handspring away from him, in the process knocking his own sword out of his hands.

So it was now a weaponless battle. We went on for another couple of minutes. I hit him about 10 times and he hit me once it seemed that I had the upper hand until I noticed that we were near my sword.

I noticed him about to pick it up but luckily it was closer to me so I stamped on the handle of it so it flung up into the air. I caught it with ease and stabbed him in the chest.

He stumbled backwards and fell to his knees.

I held the sword under his chin. "Tell me who is he?" I yelled forcing his chin up.

"I will never tell"

"If you tell I will…not spare your life" I bargained.

Blood trickled out of his mouth and he gasped a bit. "Tana.."

He fell to the ground and suspected that he was dead. But I stabbed him once more in the heart just in case.

I ran over to where Sakura was and held her. I then noticed her hand twitch.

My eyes widened in shock. "OH MY RA! SAKURA ARE YOU AWAKE?" I asked shaking her slightly.

She didn't answer but if there was any hope for her survival I knew that I needed to get her to a hospital soon.

I looked around the room for a way out, There was only a metal door and the trap door that was a long way above me.

I chose to see if I could break down the extremely hard looking metal door

I slammed into it with my shoulder but it didn't budge so I walked over to the man that I had just killed and checked to see if he had anything that would help me.

'BINGO!' I thought. 'He has dynamite'.

I got the explosives and the matches that were tucked into his belts and lit it, dropped it and ran to protect Sakura.

I ran over to her and covered her body as I heard a large BANG!

I picked her up honey moon style and carried her out of there killing a few guys on the way out.

End Flashback.

I felt a pain in my chest as I remembered the recent events. I heard the door to the hospital room open and someone entered.

"Anything?" Tomoyo asked, with hope in her voice.

"Nope. Still the same as every day" I sighed resting my head on Sakura's bed and looking at the angelic beauty lying before me. She really was truly beautiful.

"Look, Syaoran, she'll be fine, I'm sure of it. Sakura's a strong girl" Tomoyo reconciled.

"I'm just so frustrated. Why did it have to take Sakura nearly dying for me to discover that I loved her. I am so stubborn" I clenched my fists in frustration with myself.

"It's not your fault. It's the bastard that did this to her's fault. (AN: DUDE! That is a really screwed up sentence!) Tomoyo tried to reassure me.

I didn't answer.

"Well I'll be back in a second. I am just going to get some coffee. Do you want some?"

"Nah. I'll stay here"

Tomoyo left the room with a worried expression on her face. I sat in silence for a few minutes until Sakura's hand clench. My head popped up and I held her shoulders. I shook her lightly, calling to her softly, hoping that my eyes hadn't played tricks on me.

To Be Continued…

What did you think? You probably hated it. Who cares…
