Chapter Fifteen: Ill Fated Meetings

He was lying on the ground with his head on someone's lap. Whose lap he was resting on was something Yue wouldn't know, he wasn't about to open his eyes. He felt weak, warm, and shivery and his body was aching.

"Open your eyes judge."

Yue opened his eyes and found that his vision was hazy. He couldn't see the face of the person he was laying on, however three figures stood over him.

"Well, you're in rough shape," The figure in the middle said and the other two snickered, "Eliminating you would be so easy right now, unfortunately there is someone protecting you." She paused, "You'll be meeting my servants soon, judge and they can't wait. Just remember judge, I will cause your death."


Tomoyo knelt in front of Yue. She had been drawn to him by his slightly labored breathing. His face was lighter than usual and damp with sweat. She placed her hand on his forehead and frowned, it was slightly warm. She wanted to check for a temperature but she didn't have the heart to wake him. She gently covered Yue with a blanket and went to bed.


For the second time that night Yue found himself aware but not awake. He still felt weak and slightly feverish but unlike the last time his vision was clear. It was rather dark but he could see the lights from Tokyo Tower in the distance. He slowly started walking to see if he could find anyone. As he walked he heard a young boy's laughter then a scream of pain that sounded very much like his. As the laughter ceased he came across a sight that greatly disturbed him. He came across the sight of himself pinned to a tree, impaled by a jet black blade and left to bleed to death. He was forced to shut his eyes; the sight of himself bleeding to death was making him feel sicker than he already felt.

When he opened his eyes the scene had changed. He could hear a girl talking and giggling while someone else gasped in pain. He walked few paces and saw a shadowed figure brutally beating him. The girl laughed as she punched the beaten and battered Yue into a rock wall and the real Yue could have sworn he heard the sound of a skull being fractured. He saw the body fall face-down onto the ground and lay unmoving on the grass. The girl snickered as she walked up to the inert figure and jumped on his back. Once again Yue shut his eyes to try and wan the nausea he felt and once again the scene changed.

Yue once again found himself in the clearing where he witnessed his first 'death.' There was a woman cloaked in shadows standing in front of Sakura.

"You're all alone, girl," The woman said, "Your judge and beast have been eliminated."

"I will never be alone," Sakura said, "Yue-kun and Kero-chan maybe dead, but their magic still protects me!"

"That's a laugh girl," The woman answered, "I absorbed most of their powers." She scoffed, "Now stand still and allow me to become the most powerful sorcerer in the eastern world!"

Yue could do nothing as the woman's hands became beach ball-sized spheres of pure magical energy. She glanced in Yue's general direction and released her attack, "This is what I will do judge."

Yue did not want to witness Sakura's hypothetical death, even if he knew it wasn't real it would still sicken him. As much as he willed his eyes shut they remained open as the attack hit its mark. Sakura's small body was launched into the air and landed with a sickening thud. The woman then laughed as she absorbed Sakura's magic. Yue, finally able to move, squeezed his eyes closed, willing his stomach contents down and hoping to wake. He slumped to his knees as the laughing continued. Then amidst the maniacal laughter was a sweet, soprano voice calling his name. As the scene faded a cool hand laid itself on his clammy forehead and the voice became louder.

"Yue-san, please wake up!"


Tomoyo knelt by Yue for the third time since he had come over. She sighed as she placed her hand on Yue's forehead again and this time it was much warmer. She removed the blanket that was covering him and gently wiped some of the sweat off his face.

"Yue-san, please wake up," She called. Tomoyo bit her lip, Yue's breathing was rather harsh and ragged and it worried her, "Yue-san, wake up, Please! Yue-san!"

Yue's breathing calmed a bit and he opened his eyes, "To…Moyo…" He muttered then shivered, "I'm… cold…"

"May I check for a temperature, you feel warm," Tomoyo said as she gently replaced the blanket. Yue nodded and she placed a thermometer in his mouth, "I was worried about you, you were slightly warm before I went to bed last night. I left my door open just in case and I'm glad I did." She smiled gently and Yue put his arm over his forehead and shivered a bit. A few minutes later the thermometer beeped and Tomoyo read it, "Thirty-seven four, I'm going to guess and say that you have a fever." Yue nodded, his breathing was still erratic and he shivered a bit more. "Hold on I'm going to get you some ice and another blanket."

Tomoyo left the room and headed for the kitchen. She got a plastic sandwich bag and put some ice in it.

"You're up early Tomoyo," Somoni said as she walked into the kitchen, "What's the ice for?"

"Yue-san," Tomoyo said gravely, "He's got a slight fever. He spent at least an hour in the rain yesterday."

"Poor Thing," Somoni said, "He must have caught a cold. Does he want any medicine?"

"No," Tomoyo said, "Just ice and water."

"Oh alright," Somoni said, "I'll be home around eight tonight, have a good day Tomoyo. Tell Yue-kun I said hello and I hope he feels better."

"Hai," Tomoyo said, "Itterashai!" Took the ice and a glass of water and went back into her room, "I'm sorry to keep you waiting Yue-san. I've brought you some water and ice."

"Thank you," Yue muttered his voice was hoarse. He took a sip of the water and coughed a bit.

"You caught a cold after all," Tomoyo said as she put the ice on Yue's head, "Do you need anything?"

Yue shook his head slightly, "I'm going to go back to sleep," he muttered.

"I understand," Tomoyo said, "May I tell Sakura-chan?"

"No…" Yue said, "I don't want her to know…tell oniisan…"

Tomoyo nodded, "Sleep well Yue-san." Tomoyo stayed in the room until Yue had fallen asleep then she started her day.


A few hours later as Sakura was woken by the sound of a cell phone, "That must be Syaoran-kun!" She jumped out of bed and answered the phone, "Moshi, Moshi!"

"Sakura-chan,"

"Ah Tomoyo-Chan!"

"Sakura-chan, could I talk to Kero-chan?"

"Yeah," Sakura said, "Here Kero-chan, Tomoyo-chan wants to talk to you."

Cerberus took the phone from Sakura, "Hey Tomoyo," He said in a rather loud voice, "Are you calling because you have sweets for me?"

"No, I didn't," Tomoyo said, "I called because Yue-san's not well."

Cerberus flew out of the room and into Yue's, "Is he alright?" He asked, "What's wrong? Can I talk to him?"

"He's asleep," Tomoyo said, "His temperature is thirty-seven four."

"That's rather high," Cerberus said, "He must have caught a cold. Ironically, Yue doesn't faire well in the rain or snow. He hasn't figured that out yet and I hope he does soon." Cerberus paused, "Sakura's going out with the baka kuzo today, so I'll get over there as soon as I can. Tomoyo just please try to keep him comfortable."

"Hai, I'll see you later then Kero-chan."

"Bye Tomoyo." Cerberus hung up the phone then went back in Sakura's room. "Sakura could you use Illusion on me so I can go to Tomoyo's?"

"Kero-chan I hope you're not going over there to be a pest," Sakura said, "What I have I told you about stuff like that?"

"Hey she asked me," Cerberus said, "I'm not gonna cause trouble."

"Fine," Sakura said, "Illusion, hide Kero-chan from view until he gets to Tomoyo-chan's house."

"See ya Sakura." Cerberus said as he left.


Tomoyo removed the bag from Yue's forehead, the ice had melted but there was no change in his temperature. As she picked the bag up some of the water dripped onto Yue's face and Tomoyo held her breath; she didn't want him to wake just yet it had taken him a while to fall asleep. Yue stirred slightly but did not wake and Tomoyo sighed in relief. She walked down to the kitchen and replaced the ice.

When Tomoyo returned to her room there was a rather loud tapping on the window. She looked towards the window and saw the one whom she wanted to see the most.

"Kero-chan!" She quietly called as she opened the window, "You got here quick."

"I was worried about Yue," Cerberus said, "Has there been any improvement?"

Tomoyo shook her head sadly, "None," She said, "There's been no change in his temperature."

Cerberus nodded and placed his paw on Yue's forehead then both guardians where shrouded in Cerberus' sunny gold aura. As the aura faded Cerberus removed his paw and Yue's eyes opened.

"Oniisan…"

"I sorry for waking you," Cerberus said softly, "but it was necessary. I've trapped your magic. Your fever won't drain you of your magic now. How are you feeling?"

"Tired," Yue muttered, "I'm just tired."

"Why won't you tell Sakura?" Cerberus asked, "She can help you, she helped you the last time."

"…I don't want to pester her," Yue said, "I don't want to have to rely on her so much…"

"Yue," Cerberus said, "Your existence depends on Sakura. You rely on Sakura everyday; a little extra magic won't hurt."

"A little extra magic that I'm not willing to take from her," Yue said, "I don't want her to put her social life on hold because of me."

"Do you need anything Yue-san?" Tomoyo asked sensing that the two guardians needed some time alone.

"Just some water," Yue muttered, "I'm not hungry."

"Yue I'm not going to criticize you for what you did yesterday," Cerberus said, "I fact I'm proud of the decision you made." Yue sighed, "You're really not feeling well, are you?"

"It's like I said earlier oniisan," Yue muttered, "I'm just tired."

"Stop lying to yourself Yue," Cerberus said, "You're sick and you know it. You just don't want to admit it."

"I'm not sleeping very well," Yue said, "Last night I saw myself die twice last night. It sickened me oniisan…I can't stand it any longer. I'm exhausted oniisan, physically and mentally taxed. I want to sleep undisturbed for just one night. Oniisan my magic is down and I can't bring myself to burden Sakura-chan like that." Yue sighed and coughed a bit, "I don't know…what to do…anymore oniisan…I'm so tired."

Cerberus sighed, "Yue, you really need to speak to Sakura about this," He said, "There is nothing I can do to help you. I wish there was something I could do but there is nothing I can do."

"Oniisan, please!" Yue said his voice childishly high pitched, "You need to help me!"

Cerberus sighed again, Yue had reached the stage of exhaustion where his thinking became irrational, "Yue, when Tomoyo come back I want you to finish the water she brings and then I want you to get some sleep." He said in an effort to calm his brother down, "You're sick, you're exhausted and you're not thinking clearly. We'll talk when you've slept a bit, okay? Just try to relax as best you can."

Yue shut his eyes and nodded.

"Sorry to keep you waiting," Tomoyo said as she walked back into the room, "Here Yue-san I've brought you some water." She handed him a small glass of water.

"Thank you…" Yue muttered as he took a sip of the water, "I'm sorry for all the trouble I caused…"

"Don't worry about it," Tomoyo said as she brushed Yue's silver hair out of his eyes. He than handed the now empty glass to Tomoyo, "How about you try to get some sleep."

Yue nodded again then shut his eyes.

"Tomoyo I'm going to stay in here," Cerberus said, "I want to monitor his condition. I doubt that it will get any worse but I that's not a chance that I am willing to take."


A few hours later Yue could hear bits and pieces of a quiet conversation as he started coming to.

"I'm worried about her Tomoyo," Cerberus said, "Baka kuzo doesn't call for nearly two years then he randomly shows up at our door. He's up to no good, I know he is."

"I don't like it either," Tomoyo replied, "I just hope she doesn't get back with him."

Yue opened his eyes and sat up as Tomoyo said this, "No she can't get back with him!"

"Yue-san!" Tomoyo exclaimed

"Yue calm down," Cerberus said as Yue slumped against the pillow, "That's not going to happen, not if I can do anything about it, alright?" Yue nodded, "How are you feeling now?"

"A bit better oniisan," Yue said as he sat up again.

"Do you want anything Yue-san?" Tomoyo asked.

"Just a piece of fruit or something," Yue said, "I'm not very hungry."

"I'll be right back," Tomoyo said as she left the room. She then went into the kitchen to prepare something light for Yue. She was just about to head up the stairs when the phone went off.

"Daidouji-desu…ah Sakura-chan…eh, the park…? Hai…I'll be there soon…bye." She then neglected the freshly cut fruit and ran up stairs, "Sakura-chan needs us at the park," She said.

"Is she alright," Yue asked as he stood, "I swear if he hurts her…"

"Yue stay here," Cerberus said, "You're not well and it could be dangerous."

"Oniisan, "I'm feeling better," Yue said, 'I'll be alright."

Cerberus sighed, "Yue…" He muttered, "Please, I don't want your condition to get any worse. I know that you are feeling a bit better but you're still not one hundred percent yet. Please stay here."

"No oniisan," Yue said, "Sakura-chan needs us and I want to make sure that she's alright."

Cerberus sighed again, "I can't stop you," he said gravely, "but please don't push yourself to the point where you pass out."

"Are you two ready?" Tomoyo asked.

"Yes," Yue said, "Let's go."

Cerberus sighed, 'Please Clow-sama protect both of them, Sakura and Yue.'


Yue's head was swimming by the time they got to the park.

"You're pushing yourself much too hard Yue," Cerberus said, "You should have stayed at Tomoyo's."

"I'm alright oniisan," Yue muttered, "I'm just a little lightheaded."

"The last time you said that you passed out not even two minutes later!" Cerberus said.

"I'll be alright if I sit down for a minute." Yue said as he leaned against a tree.

"Tomoyo-chan, Kero-chan, Yue-kun, what are you doing here?" Sakura asked.

"You called me and told me to meet you at the park," Tomoyo said.

"No, I didn't," Sakura said as she walked over to the tree where Yue, Cerberus and Tomoyo were standing, "I didn't call you."

"Tell her," Cerberus whispered in Yue's ear, "tell her that you're sick."

"Stop it oniisan," Yue murmured, "I'm alright."

"Then who called me?" Tomoyo asked.

"That would have been me!" A girl called in a sing-song voice, "I was the one who called you!" The group looked in the direction the voice called from and a girl with blue hair emerged from the trees. "I can't believe that you all fell for it!"

Yue gasped it was the girl he had seen brutally beating him in his dreams. His head swam even more, his breathing worsened and he slumped to his knees.

"Yue-kun!" Sakura called as she knelt down next to him, "You're not feeling well are you?"

"That girl…is dangerous…" Yue muttered, "Please Sakura-chan…be careful…"

"Don't worry judge I'm not today's threat," She said, "He is." She pointed to a cluster of trees and a boy walked into the clearing.

"Syaoran-kun!"

"Kuzo!"

"You…"

"I can't believe that you trusted me," Li said, "You're such an idiot!"

"Take that back!" Yue growled as he attempted to stand.

"Make me," Syaoran said as Yue slumped to the ground again, "Oh wait you don't seem to have the strength or energy to do anything to stop me."

"Yue take it easy," Cerberus said as Yue shut his eyes, "you're not well."

"Stay out of this Yue-kun," Sakura said as she brushed some of Yue's hair out of his eyes, "You're in no condition to be fighting. Just sit here and rest."

"Please be careful…" Yue muttered, "I can't protect you…"

"Don't worry about it," Sakura said as she put her hand on Yue's forehead, "Just rest." She stood up "I don't know what you want Syaoran-kun but I am willing to fight you."

"Good, good!" The other girl said, "Now we need a judge" she said as looked towards Yue.

"You know he's in no condition to judge this battle!" Cerberus yelled.

"Oniisan, I can do this," Yue said.

"No, you can't do this, you can't even stand!" Cerberus said

"Tomoyo," Yue muttered, "You'll have to do it…I…I can't…"

Tomoyo nodded, "I accept," she said, "I will be the judge of this battle."

"Alright!" The girl yelled, "Let's do this!"

"Neither contestant will be allowed to kill or maim the other," Tomoyo stated, "Neither contestant will be allowed aid by any no participants. The first contestant unable to fight for thirty seconds will merit defeat. Participants may commence battle!"

"Sword!" Sakura yelled as Syaoran lunged at her.

"What no stupid little twirls and chants?" He asked as he clashed swords with Sakura.

"No, I got over those when I got over you," Sakura said darkly as she knocked Syaoran's sword aside.

"You've gotten stronger," Syaoran said as he recovered his sword.

"Of course a girl is always stronger when she is not relying on a man." Sakura shot back as she lunged at Syaoran who side-stepped to avoid it. "I have someone new in my life now."

Syaoran clashed swords with Sakura, "This new person must not be much of a man then." He said as Sakura broke away then back flipped to avoid Syaoran's sword then charged.

"He's more of a man than you will ever be." She murmured in a low and dark tone. She then quickly glanced at Yue.

Syaoran smirked, "Yue," He scoffed "Yue is the new person in your life? Are you serious? Yue is more like a lost boy than a man."

At this remark Sakura knocked the sword from Syaoran's hand and pinned him against a tree her sword centimeters from his neck, "Unlike a certain little boy that I have had the misfortune to meet, Yue doesn't run from his problems." She growled.

Syaoran pulled a piece of paper out from his robes, "Water!" he called as a jet of water hit Sakura in the chest then threw her back several meters.

"Sakura's got the upper hand," Cerberus said softly, "but the kuzo could be hiding something."

"She can win…" Yue muttered.

"Shield, keep my opponent from retrieving his weapon!" Sakura called as she stood up again.

"Ah so now you want a battle of magic?" Syaoran called as he too got to his feet, "Lightning!"

"Shadow!" Sakura called. The shrouded figure materialized in front of Sakura and swallowed the electrical attack.

"So we know the cards better now do we?" Syaoran smirked.

"Kero-chan and Yue-kun have been teaching me more about the cards," Sakura said, "There isn't more that I need to know."

"So you really do like Yue, don't you?" Syaoran said, "I almost feel bad, your great protector seems to have been done in by a simple cold." Syaoran shoved Sakura to the ground then pulled a third piece of paper out from his pocket, "Fire!"

Sakura remained on the ground waiting for the fire to consume her but it never came. Then she realized who Syaoran was attacking, "Shield protect Yue-kun and Kero-chan!"

"Thank you," Syaoran said as the card abandoned his sword to protect the guardians. Syaoran lunged for his sword then pointed it at Sakura, "I hope you know that Cerberus' shields could have nullified that attack. You have just gift wrapped this battle for me."

"I'm not going to let you win that easily," Sakura said, "Bind the one who stands before me, Windy, Wood!"

Syaoran did everything he could to avoid the two restraint cards but he could not out maneuver both at the same time. "Dammit!" He yelled as the two cards got him. He tried to break free of the cards' grasps.

"Sakura-chan is the winner of this battle," Tomoyo said, "Li-san will be released and then he will leave this area. Should he remain, there will be severe consequences.

"Humph, what a disappointment," the girl with the blue hair said, "Come on Li boy let's go." Then the two left the clearing in silence.

"Sakura-chan…" Yue called out as loud as he could and he attempted to stand.

"Yue-kun, don't get up," Sakura said as Yue swayed on his feet. She then gently helped him sit again. "I need to apologize to you Yue-kun, what I did yesterday was stupid and I can understand if you're angry with me."

"I'm not angry," Yue said as he mustered up a smile, "You did well both of you."

"Thank you," Tomoyo said, "But at the beginning and end of the battle I didn't know what I was saying."

"I was telepathically telling you what to say," Yue said as he coughed a bit.

"You where doing what!?" Cerberus Yelled, "Yue, you shouldn't have done that. You're at a deficit for magic and you're sick! What the hell were you thinking!?"

"Oniisan…," Yue said softly, "please lower your voice, I have a terrible headache."

"Sakura will you call your brother," Cerberus said, "We need to get him home."

"Hai," Sakura said as she got her cell phone out.


Yukito was reading on of his college textbooks when the phone went off.

"Tsukishiro desu."

"Yukito-san is oniichan there?"

"No, he just left for work."

"Does he have the car?"

"No he walked," Yukito answered, "May I ask why you need To-ya and the car?"

"Yue-kun, Tomoyo-chan and I are at the park and…"

"What am I chopped liver?" Yukito heard Cerberus say.

"Kero-chan…ah sorry Yukito-san, and Yue-kun isn't feeling very well…ano…"

"You need a ride home, don't you?" Yukito said just guessing what the girl was going to say.

"Could you, Yukito-san? Yue-kun isn't feeling well enough to walk."

"I'll see you in a few minutes Sakura-chan."Yukito said as he went to the kitchen to get the car keys.


"Yukito-san is going to pick us up," Sakura said, "But we're going to have to go to the entrance of the park." She looked at Yue, "Do you think you can manage?"

"Yeah I'm alright," Yue said as he stood up but then once again fell to the ground.

"No," Sakura said softly as she helped Yue to his feet, "You're not alright. Take it easy."

Yue sighed and leaned heavily on Sakura, "I'm sorry…"

"Don't worry about it," Sakura said as she led Yue to the park's entrance, "Please Yue tell me if you need to rest."

"Sakura-chan…" Yue muttered as the reached the entrance to the park, "I need to sit…"

Sakura nodded then led Yue to a park bench. She then placed her hand of Yue's slightly clammy forehead, "You don't really feel warm Yue-kun," She said, "But you look sick. What was Kero-chan taking about when he said that your magic was at a deficit?"

"It's nothing Sakura-chan," Yue muttered as he put his hands to his head.

"We talked about this Yue-kun," Sakura said quietly, "What's wrong?"

"Sakura-chan!" Yukito called.

"We'll talk about this later, okay?" Sakura said as she helped Yue stand again and then led him to the car.

During the car ride Yue rested his head on Sakura's shoulder while she stroked his hair. He had a lot on his mind and he found himself thinking about the people in his dreams. 'Who are these people and why do they want me dead?' Yue thought, 'Am I really going to be killed by these people? What will happen to Sakura-chan, oniisan and the cards if I do die?' The car hit a bump; Yue's headache worsened and was now accompanied by nausea.

"Yue-kun," Sakura whispered, "We're home." Yue opened his eyes and raised his head, "Here let me help you," She said as she got out of the car. She then tried to pull Yue from the car but he wasn't moving, "I know you don't feel very well but you need to help me out a bit."

"Here let me help you," Yukito said as he and Sakura finally got Yue out of the car, "You don't like car rides very much, do you?"

Yue shook his head and shut his eyes.

"He gets carsick," Cerberus said, "And he's not feeling well to begin with."

"Tea would help to settle you stomach," Yukito said, "and it will help the cold you have."

"I don't want any," Yue muttered.

"Yue, please you need some kind of nourishment," Cerberus said.

"Please Oniisan," Yue snapped, "I'm not a child anymore! I can make my own decisions! I don't want anything to eat or drink right now, I just want to sleep!" Yue's eyes then slid shut and he leaned against Sakura.

"Calm down Yue-kun," Sakura said, "Let's get you to bed."

"Yue I…"

"I want to be left alone," Yue murmured.

Cerberus sighed, "Alright," He said as he went into Sakura's room.

Sakura and Yukito led Yue in to his room, "Sit down Yue-kun," Sakura said, "I'll get the thermometer."

"Do you want anything?" Yukito asked as Sakura left the room.

Yue put the heel of his hand to his forehead and shook his head, "I lashed out again, Yukito," Yue said, "that's the second time today that I've lashed out at oniisan."

"You're feeling a bit under the weather, Yue," Yukito said, "I don't think he'll mind."

"Demo…"

"No buts Yue," Yukito said, "Talk to Kero-chan when you're feeling better. He'll understand Yue, don't worry."

"Am I interrupting anything?" Sakura asked from the hall way.

"Not really," Yukito said with a smile, "He's worrying about what happened with Kero-chan."

"Don't worry about it," Sakura said, "He wasn't angry the last time, was he?" Yue shook his head, "Then you have nothing to worry about," She handed him the thermometer, "Here, I don't think you have much of a fever, but let's check it anyways, just to stay on the safe side." She sat down next to Yue, "Tomoyo-chan thinks you're a wonderful musician." Yue didn't respond, he just leaned his head on Sakura's shoulder. And the thermometer beeped. "Thirty-six four, it's not very high."

"But it's high enough to make me feel sick," Yue muttered.

"I'll get dream and sleep," Sakura said, "You need to sleep well tonight. I'll be right back."

"Sakura-chan I have to get going," Yukito said.

"Aw, can't you stay for supper?" Sakura asked.

"I guess I can stay for supper," Yukito said, "I'll even help make it."

"No you don't have to do that!" Sakura said.

"Tomoyo-chan has already started making supper," Yukito said, "I'll go and help her."

"But you're a guest it impolite to have you make supper." Sakura said.

"I don't mind, Sakura-chan," Yukito said, "Now I'm going to help make supper whether you like it or not." He said as he headed down the stairs.

Sakura then headed into her own room to get the two cards she needed then went back to Yue's room, "Yue-kun may I come in?"

"Yeah," Yue said as Sakura entered the room, "Sakura-chan about what you asked me earlier, I have not been sleeping well. I've been having nightmares nearly every night. I just can't take it anymore. Last night I saw myself die two times. The first time I was pinned to a tree, impaled by a black sword and left to die. The second time that girl from today threw me into a wall and fractured my skull then to make sure I was dead my back and ribs were broken." He paused as a knot formed in the back of his throat indicating that he would break down soon, "Then you were killed…and oniisan too…I just want to sleep without these dreams…"

"We'll figure something out Yue-kun," Sakura said as Yue cried into her shoulder, "Don't worry." Sakura sighed, "Come Yue-kun, your energy and magic levels are low. Do you need anything?"

Yue shook his head, "I'm sorry," He muttered.

"Listen Yue-kun, you don't have to apologize every time you cry, alright?" Sakura said as she ran her fingers through Yue's hair, "Just relax now; Yue-kun needs to sleep sound and undisturbed tonight, Dream, Sleep!" She tossed the two cards in the air and watched as Yue succumbed to the effects. "Dream-san please stay here with him, I'll be back later to check on him."

"Alright Sakura-sama," The card replied as Sakura left the room.


"I'm sorry to keep you waiting," Sakura said.

"Is Yue-san asleep?" Tomoyo said.

"Yeah,"

"That's good," Tomoyo said, "I had to wake him twice yesterday."

"Yue doesn't sleep very well," Yukito said, "His past haunts him at night."

"This time it's not just his past that's haunting him," Sakura said as she helped serve the dinner Yukito and Tomoyo had made, "This time it's might happen in the future that has him. He keeps seeing himself die along with Kero-chan and me."

"We won't let that happen," Yukito said, "Don't worry Yue will be alright."

"Tadaima,"

"Otou-san's home!" Sakura called.

"Konbanwa Sakura-san," Fugitaka said, "Well hello Tsukishiro-kun, Tomoyo-san."

"Konbanwa Kinomoto-san," Tomoyo said.

"Konbanwa," Yukito said, "Sakura-chan invited us to dinner."

"You're both always welcome in this house," Fugitaka said, "Where's Yue-kun and Kero-chan?"

"Yue-kun is asleep already," Sakura said, "He didn't feel very well today. I'm worried about him otou-san, he's been sick a lot and he nearly died because of it."

"His health will improve Sakura," Fugitaka said, "Don't worry, now let's eat."


After a quiet dinner Sakura entered Yue's room to check on him. His face was more flushed and clammy than before and his breathing was slightly irregular.

"Dream-san…"

"His fever is breaking Sakura-sama," Dream said, "But he is sleeping sound. Do not worry I will inform you if his condition changes for the worse."

"Thank you Dream-san," Sakura said, 'Sleep well Yue-kun." She then left the room, leaving Yue to sleep undisturbed.


Things will get better for Yue-kun I promise! This has been my longest chapter to date. I'll try my best to get chapter sixteen up as soon as I can. Keep me inspired by reviewing!
