Unfortunately for both of them, a group of tourists brushed past them pushing Syaoran into Sakura against the wall. Both flushed at the close contact. But then Sakura pushed Syaoran away.
"Sorry about that Li." She apologized. He merely nodded, making the tint of pink fade away quickly in seconds. They stood there in silence not knowing what to say.
"Am I interrupting something?" A sweet melodic voice spoke out. Sakura and Syaoran turned around to face…Tomoyo. And in her hands was none other than her precious camcorder.
"Tomoyo-chan…what are you doing here?" Sakura asked with a question mark hovering about her head. Syaoran sweatdropped at her naivety while Tomoyo hugged Sakura within seconds. (She was almost smothering poor Sakura)
"Of course, to film kawaii Sakura!" Tomoyo exclaimed as she raised one of Sakura's hands into the air. The people around them sweatdropped. Syaoran sighed and was about to excuse himself before Tomoyo whirled around to face him with a devious glint.
"Where do you think you're going Li-san?" Tomoyo said as she went in front of his face.
"I'm…" Syaoran started to say before Tomoyo quickly whipped something out of her pocket and around his neck. It was a collar with a wolf on it.
"Sorry Li-san, but you'll be accompanying us throughout the mall. Thanks for the offer!" Tomoyo said pleasantly but with devious eyes. Syaoran felt as if the temperature just dropped several degrees. As Tomoyo cheerfully started to lead the way into the mall with Sakura in her hand, Syaoran was forced to follow (since he tried to walk away but an electric shock went through him causing him immense pain, plus the collar had a lock on it and Tomoyo waved the key at him). He growled lowly on how a girl had power over him.

A black-haired male smiled as he saw Syaoran, Sakura, and Tomoyo walk into the mall. His aquamarine orbs shone brightly behind his glasses as he walked into the shadows of the trees.
"Time for the reincarnation of Cherry Blossom, to arise once again." He muttered to his two companions that were behind him.
"Yes master!" Both chorused as they transported into the mall. He drew out a pendant in the shape of a key with the sun and summoned his staff.
"Arise, Dark Fiery and Sleep." On his command, a black fire emerged as well as a little person on a black cloud as smoke cleared.
"Let's get this show on the road. Go cause trouble for the trio." He commanded. His summons obeyed.

Sakura gasped as another outfit was shoved towards her to wear. She already tried on what felt like a trillion outfits, and Tomoyo didn't seem to get tired at all.
"Come on, Sakura-chan! Next one!" Tomoyo chirped. Sakura sweatdropped as she walked out in a string tang top that was decorated with cherry blossoms, jeans, her hair in curls with a pink ribbon securing a braided part of her hair, boots in white. Tomoyo squealed with pleasure. In the other fitting room next to her, Syaoran emerged in a green trench jacket, jeans, and brown boots. Tomoyo jumped up with joy as she took a picture of the two next to each other.
"HEY!" Both of them exclaimed in horror and surprise.
"This picture was a masterpiece! Let's try on…" Tomoyo started to say before she was interrupted quickly.
"Tomoyo, why don't we have lunch?" Sakura said as she stopped her friend from saying any more. Syaoran gave a quiet sigh of relief as Tomoyo agreed reluctantly. As the two were about to take a step back into the fitting room, Tomoyo's statement made them stop.
"I'll agree to have lunch IF…" Sakura and Syaoran turned around with a feeling full of dread of what she would say next.
"…you two wear those outfits for the rest of the day! I already brought them by the way. Oh, and Sakura, your stuff's over here" Tomoyo said cheerfully as she just handed cash to the salesperson next to her. Both of them quickly agreed in fright of what she might say next. As the three arrived at the food court, Sakura excused herself to go to the bathroom leaving Syaoran and Tomoyo to decide on what they want to eat. But just as she went into the bathroom, Syaoran whirled around to see the Dark Sleep and Fiery float down from the ceiling. As the people around them fell to sleep, Tomoyo and Syaoran hid safely under a nearby table.
"What's going on?" Tomoyo whispered as she saw the Dark Sleep and Fiery float around; Dark Sleep letting flakes fall on the people making one by one fall asleep, Dark Fiery causing flames on the trees in the mall or some of the lights. Syaoran bit his lip as he gazed at his opponents quickly before holding out a hand towards Tomoyo who looked back confused. Dark Sleep decided there was no one else to fall asleep and drifted off to the bathrooms.
"Give me the freaking key NOW." Syaoran growled each word coldly. Tomoyo took out the key from her pocket handing it towards him. As the collar was unlocked, Syaoran knocked her out calmly. As she fell down, he took out the sword pendant that was handing on his bracelet. It transformed into a sword as he chanted some words. Dark Fiery swirled around to face him, noticing that he didn't fall asleep.
"Thunder!" He yelled as he started to run towards Dark Fiery. He was stopped however by a blast of dark thunder. As he got up after he avoided the attack, he saw besides Dark Fiery was what looked similar to a lion but was black with black wings. On the forehead shone an amber jewel.
"It feels good to shoot thunder again." The creature growled.
"Who are you?" Syaoran exclaimed as he held his sword ready for any attacks.

Sakura was just coming out of the stall when she saw Dark Sleep emerge through the door. She leapt avoiding its flakes of sleep and Kero appeared in a poof in his stuffed animal form.
"Sakura! There's something dark…" Unfortunately he was unable to continue because a pink piece of ice was whirled towards him which he managed to dodge. Sakura and Kero looked up to see a girl with pink hair and eyes with pink butterfly wings wearing a black dress laughing at them amusedly.
"So you're the reincarnation of Cherry Blossom?" She asked. Kero transformed into his beast form.
"Who are you?! And what do you want with her?!" Kero exclaimed as he flew over Sakura protectively. The female instead smirked and replied back in a singsong voice, "I don't have to tell you anything Kerberos!" Kero growled and shot a ray of fire towards her which she dodged.
"Let's settle this outside you two!" She said as she grasped Sakura by the waist and flew out the door with the Dark sleep and Kero hot on her trail.
"Sakura! Transform you idiot!" Kero yelled as Sakura struggled to get out of the unknown female's grasp.
