Chapter 8: Sakura-san, meet Sakura-san…
 
The quiet chill of a cool breeze came thought the entire house at about 4 that morning, the cold winds blew from the east and slowly clouds rolled over mountains, Sakura rolled over in her sleep a few times and woke up, slowly she arose to see a open window, somehow it had opened as the breath of a cold wind blew at her, Sakura shivered as she closed the window again and looked outside, dark clouds rolled over a clear night sky, the movement of the breeze sung a ghostly roar as the clouds moved ever so closer to the town.
 
Sakura decided to get my sleep for her long day ahead. Sakura moved down towards and turned onto her stomach, she looked at Syaoran. He had appeared to have been fighting in his sleep, the blanket he was under had completely been moved away, Sakura moved again and grabbed the blanket and placed it over him, suddenly Sakura lost the grip with the ground her body fell on top of Syaoran. Syaoran didn’t move much, expect it properly hurt him in his sleep. Suddenly Syaoran spoke, “I won’t let you hurt Sakura!!”
 
Sakura quietly removed herself from her position and slowly moved back to where she was sleeping; slowly she placed herself on the ground and laid there to sleep. Syaoran then woke up, he was in fact sweating a lot. Sakura wasn’t to much asleep when he jumped up. Syaoran turned quickly over to Sakura, his glare immediately awoke Sakura.
 
“Are you all right?” Sakura started to whisper softly
 
Syaoran breaths for a second and looks towards the window, we gets up and opens it again, the only thing that Syaoran sees is a spray of light rain in a almost vertical position. The closes the door and goes back to Sakura.
 
“Its nothing, I had a weird dream” Syaoran starts to explain,
 
Sakura and Syaoran walk to the sofa in the video room, slowly they move closer to each other and both then think of things past and future. Sakura holds a picture on a side table, on are the four of them before the attack the, photo was a still frame of them in the mountains, Sakura looked for a minute. Syaoran then looked closer to Sakura and then at her in the picture. Sakura began to cry.
 
“What’s wrong Sakura?” Syaoran whispered,
 
“Don’t you get it, if I didn’t ever get the book of clow, none of this would of ever happened”
 
“Sakura, I did not here that from you!”
 
Sakura looked at Syaoran, instead of an anger glare, he was calmer.
 
“Sakura, those cards belong to you, once we get this all out of the way, you will be able to live with them and me in peace” Syaoran explained “besides, you would of never of known me”
 
Sakura quickly saw that he was right and stopped crying, Syaoran then stood up, as did Sakura, both of them then hugged each other, Syaoran and Sakura could only be happier as there relation meant even more. Syaoran then thought otherwise, was it only because of that he stopped to smile, Sakura then looked at his face.
 
“Is something else wrong?” Sakura spoke.
 
“No, nothing seems to be wrong” Syaoran concluded.
 
Both of them walk to the place they were sleeping, Sakura and Syaoran looked at each other for a minute, both starring at each other and weakening each other eye sight at the same time. Finally Sakura spoke,
 
“What do you think would of happened if we never meet?”
 
Syaoran looked stunned, and finally answered “I woulden’t be the person I was today”
 
Sakura hugged Syaoran, Syaoran turned over, Sakura on top of him, once again she made a comfortable weight to have on top, but this time he was comfortable below. Sakura eventually fell asleep,                 Syaoran had no problem with her and went to sleep as well.
A glint of light came through the window of Tomoyo’s bedroom. The Tomoyo of the future was sleeping very close to the edge of the bed, eventfully Tomoyo fell off, not hitting the floor hard, but so to hit the floor with a loud noise. The past Tomoyo awoke from the noise, she worriedly turned over to see a strewn of bed sheets towards the side of the bed, on the bottom Tomoyo was awake, and lifted herself up.
 
“Are you ok Tomoyo?” Tomoyo’s past self said
 
“I’m fine Tomoyo-Chan; I’m just not use to sleeping on the right side”
 
“Oh, I’m sorry” Tomoyo past self spoke again,
 
Both of them walk towards the door of the video room. As they do they discover a unique sight, Syaoran and Sakura sleeping together. Slowly they pay there attention away from them and to the outside. Tomoyo past self walks out to the balcony followed by Tomoyo. The ground is still wet, the water is banked up where the surface is dipped, over the wet grass the mew of a new day beckons, the clouds of rain are broken up now, the sun now starts to rise in the east, towards the sea. The bright blue sky of dawn gives life to the life on the ground, birds fly out of old trees, there singing in tune with the feeling of the new day, the clouds are more of issue the large white clouds inflate into huge balloons of snow white moisture, there colours shine by the sun create a vast gold stream on the top of each cloud, below the grey darkness of the rain it brought still lingers. Tomoyo and Tomoyo-Chan then sat down on two chairs underneath a shelter.
 
“So what is the plan? You did have one right?” Tomoyo-Chan spoke.
 
“We just have to alter the future” Tomoyo said formally.
 
“Then what will happen?”
 
“Then we go into hiding, commit suicide maybe”
 
“You can’t! What about me and everyone else”
 
“Tomoyo-Chan, I don’t belong here, and Eriol-kun can’t have us both” Tomoyo says looking at the ring on her hand. Only looking at it more Tomoyo began to cry.
 
Tomoyo-Chan then looked at the ring as well and held her hand,
 
“It’s a beautiful ring, who gave it to you?”
 
“I can’t say. It wasn’t Eriol-kun though, it was someone else” Tomoyo lied to her past counterpart.
 
Tomoyo-Chan didn’t think herself would lie, and believed her. Tomoyo got up and look at Tomoyo-Chan. At the same time Tomoyo-Chan got up and looked directly at her. For some time both of them stared at each other, they both couldn’t believe what each other were saying. In that Tomoyo-Chan spoke,
 
“Don’t worry, maybe Eriol-kun is able to do something to stop that” Tomoyo-Chan assured her future self. “there is always an answer to these things…”
 
Tomoyo-Chan hugs her future equal, so does Tomoyo in return, the return inside to discover Yamazaki and Meilin awake. Both are quietly waiting for there day to get underway, slowly they are looking at their papers in a professional military fashion. Both Tomoyo-Chan and Tomoyo pause going in and watch them both doing there work.
 
“Tomoyo, tell me again; are Meilin and Yamazaki actually in the Soviet Army?” Tomoyo-Chan asked
 
“It seems odd, but yes”
 
“I’ve never seen Meilin work that professorially in her life and never with anyone else together this way, and Yamazaki is completely different. He never lies anymore, I wonder if Chiharu will recognise him, in that uniform?”
 
“I think you can remember a person, no matter how much they have changed” Tomoyo said finally.
 
Both agree with a nod and walk inside. From there they use Tomoyo’s mini kitchen to make breakfast
Sakura and Syaoran awake with the sun spilling through the ends of the curtains, Sakura realises were she is and turns over, as She realises that she is on Syaoran still, Syaoran awakes again.
 
“Oh…um morning Syaoran, sorry for falling asleep on you…” Sakura says in a simile.
 
Syaoran just smiles, in his rare fashion and speaks “I didn’t mind Sakura, I don’t mind at all”
 
“About me sleeping on you? I thought I was a little heavy maybe…”
 
“You weren’t, and you’re not too heavy at all…” Syaoran carefully picks his words.
 
Sakura amazingly understands what he said and similes. Sakura gets up full of energy, Syaoran was getting up as well but not as fast as Sakura, both head for the door, inside the group watch as Sakura and Syaoran emerge from the room. Sakura starts to think of what scene that they had left to the others to see. Without fortune Naoko begins to rally questions,
 
“Sakura, were you up earlier?”
 
“Yes” Sakura replied.
 
“And Syaoran, were you up as well?”
 
“Yes?” Syaoran replied.
 
“Was it something important?”
 
“No” Syaoran spoke “It was personal”
 
“Ok”
 
“Naoko; why are you asking me these questions?”
 
Naoko answers with ending “because we all thought that too, you and Sakura looked like you have gotten up earlier”
 
“What’s that meant to mean?”
 
“Nothing, we know that you and Sakura both had a close bond, we were just wondering thought what you were up for”
 
Syaoran and Sakura both looked at each other and then blushed.
 
“Never mind Syaoran, you don’t have to tell us!” Rika said.
 
Syaoran and Sakura begin to blush even more. Tomoyo-Chan and Tomoyo giggle in the background. Yamazaki and Meilin then get up and started to both speak,
 
“Ok, today we have to complete our first objective, all of us must find our past-self’s and start to hunt down the spy, his next notice will be in 2 days when he starts to investigate us, now we have the upper hand because we know about him. Now Sakura, You past self will be at home until 12 noon, after which she will meet up with Tomoyo-chan, Tomoyo I want you to follow your past self at a distance, ring if trouble occurs” Yamazaki said to everyone.
 
“Now, Syaoran and I will head off for both of us, my past self is visiting today and tomorrow, I have to catch up with her, from there we will be able to start to help ourselves.  Finally Naoko, Rika and Yamazaki will head for there past equals, everyone understands?” Meilin finished,
 
“Yes”
 
“Let’s go!”
Sakura and Syaoran are lead by Tomoyo to the tunnel and to the outside, Naoko and Rika follow Yamazaki as soon as they exited the tunnel way, Syaoran and Sakura with Meilin started to walk in the direction of there houses. Respectively they split up at the slide and went of looking for there past selves. Sakura walks slowly down the row of cherry blossoms, they were not in season yet, the spring day was still very chilly, Eventually Sakura was at home, well her past home as it to be speaking, Sakura climbed the branches beside the window, and looks inside, the curtain immediately blocks the view, but the sides show Sakura-Chan still sleeping in, it been Sunday meant that she wouldn’t be awake for another hour at least, Sakura got an idea, she muddle through her small army bag and found he phone, she rings Tomoyo-Chan…
 
“Tomoyo-chan, when I hang up, ring me again”
 
“Why? You just…oh right, got it!”
 
Sakura hangs up and looks at herself, Slowly Sakura-Chan awakes as the phone starts to ring on the desk, Kero-Chan comes out of his room and notices that Sakura isn’t answering  the phone, then out of the notice of his master, picks the phone up and float on top of Sakura, using his tail he starts to annoy Sakura-Chan’s face, Sakura-Chan tries to hit it, eventually she hits kero like a fly and reveres into the other side of the room, slamming into the bag. This woke Sakura-Chan up
 
“Oh…um, Tomoyo-chan? This early? Why? Well as long as it is important…no, no I just woke up, bye” Sakura-Chan puts the phone on the bed and looks at kero.
 
“So…what was that about?” Kero-Chan speaks up.
 
“Nothing much, Tomoyo-Chan is calling me early, she has something this afternoon. Like a form class, of some kind” Sakura-Chan spoke slowly,
 
“On Sunday?, she’s mad!”
 
“Oh well, I better go. Kero-Chan, no one is at home, but that doesn’t mean you can snack about, what if someone saw you?”
 
“Relax, who is going to find out?”
 
“Just be careful then, bye”
 
Sakura watches her counterpart leave the home and down the street, Sakura slips in the house and looks around her room, Sakura can’t remember the a thing on what here room looked like, Slowly she opens the window, it makes a loud creak and splinters the metal bars, Sakura stops and hears something, the frigde door was being opened. Sakura sneaked down the tree again and looked from the kitchen window, Kero-Chan had indeed gone inside, as he went deeper the fridge door started to do back, Sakura looked in clear view that he had found a block of chocolates at the back as he lifted the box to the door, he’s escape closed on him. Sakura watched in horror as Kero struggled to open the door from the inside, Sakura Climbed up the stars and inside, meanwhile Yukio-San was walking by and noticed Sakura was climbing inside, and wearing some weird uniform. It quickly cam to mine that she was being robbed and changed to Yue-San, he rushed to the door and opened it, as he did Sakura ran down the stairs and entered the kitchen, Sakura opened the fridge door, Kero looked around in horror to discover Sakura, this time dressed differently,
 
“Sakura, I thought you?”
 
“I’ll explain, you see…”
 
“Hold it!!” Yells Yue with his arrow at the ready,
 
“Hold it!, its me Sakura!”
 
“I don’t believe you, why are you wearing that uniform?”
 
“Listen Yue, I’m Sakura, ring Tomoyo and she’ll tell you,!”
 
In the oddest sense, Yue puts down the arrow and waits, Sakura pulls out the phone and dials a number, Sakura starts to speak to Tomoyo and asks to come over to her house, quickly. Yue then hears the conversation by Tomoyo
 
“…Don’t they believe you? Listen; I’ll ring my past self and tell her to hang on, then I’ll come over quickly”
 
Sakura mumbles softly into the phone
 
“Kero in the fridge, why is that odd?”
 
Sakura turn of the phone and asks everyone to sit down, she sits down and takes out the papers and reads, Yue invades her mind for a minute and sees what she is thinking, then he speaks
 
“Your Sakura right? I feel the presence of the cards mistress, but it is something else”
 
“Your right…” Kero-Chan examines the uniform she is wearing
 
“Your both right, I’m Sakura but I’m a different Sakura”
 
“The mirror card!...dam it, how many times do we have to tell you, no joking around, Sakura is not going to be pleased with you now”
 
“I’m not the mirror card, I’m Sakura, but I’m the Sakura from the future!!”
 
Both look at each other and then look at Sakura again, they start to become aggressive. Sakura gets up and runs for her room, She goes into the room and looks for the cards, forgetting where they are exactly. Yue and Kero both slowly walk up stairs and open the door, Sakura turns around backed against the desk, she feels the draw there in and opens it.
 
“Look, I’ve prove it!” Sakura scans for the mirror card and can’t find it, she panics as she drops one card at a time, eventually there are no cards left. Sakura feels like she’s about to die when a window slides from behind the curtain, enters Sakura.
 
“What?” all say together.
 
“Oh no…I just wanted to…Sakura, what is going on?”
 
Yue and Kero can’t figure out whom to kill, the Sakura in the army uniform or the Sakura in the plain clothes. Both looked confused, Sakura hugged the other Sakura and pleaded that she return to the card form for a second, the card did just that and returned before  Sakura could let go, Sakura fell as the card glowed back into card form, it then dropped softly onto Sakura’s back. Turning over, Sakura picked the card off her back and showed it to Yue and Kero-Chan.
 
“See! I told you, I’m NOT the mirror card!!”
 
“Can you forgive us?”
 
“Of course! Ok mirror you can return to my form”
 
The card did as she commanded and started to reappear as Sakura, the card looked at Sakura and then at the Uniform and then spoke “I mean no offence when I say this but; what is Going on?”
 
“I’ll explain now, everyone find a seat” Sakura asked everyone.
 
“Now you said you were from the future, who much?” Kero asked from his mini easy chair.
 
“Yes, in about a day or so, a spy from American C.I.A will start looking for clues of magic, when he does, we will catch Sakura-Chan and everyone else, and the powers of the cards became weapons of war and destroyed all the freedom on this earth. You and Yue have died, from the experiments that you were given”
 
Yue and Kero turned white, kero especially, who went from orange yellow to plain white. The mirror card turns to Sakura and asks “then if you were in a lab, why re you here”
 
“a few days ago, the Soviet Army helped us to our freedom, and in return gave us the power to go back in time, believe it or not, Meilin and Yamazaki were the people responsible for our capture, they worked for them to help us out, it is alos the uniform I’m wearing its Soviet Special units”
 
“You mean the little girl…she…did something smart for a change?” Kero-Chan joked.
 
Sakura looked at him angrily, they kept quiet.
 
“Anyway, the Russian, or I mean soviet president, got us a few cards, but I didn’t have the staff”
 
“you what?”
 
“I’m sorry, my staff was destroyed by gunfire, but don’t worry I had Eriol-Kun’s, showing his staff”
 
“But why would you use his?” Yue questioned
 
“he also died”
 
“I see”
 
“So all 7 of us went back to alert ourselves and others, so we could alter time for the good.
 
Sakura looked outside, and then back at the group,
 
“I got Tomoyo to ask Tomoyo-Chan to Ring Sakura-Chan to get her out of the house so I could enter unnoticed, then here we are…”
 
“Ok, now what do we do?”
 
“A spy is taking pictures of me, kero and Syaoran as well as my friends, we have to destroy the information, with luck, the Americans will not believe him anymore and drop the matter”
 
“Now what?” the mirror card asked.
 
“Tomoyo-chan will go shopping as I would of, expect 3 hours earlier, when that is over, Tomoyo-Chan and Sakura will come here, then Tomoyo and I, as well as you 3 will help me convince Sakura-Chan about what I just told you.” Sakura told them all.
 
Sakura looked out the window and saw Tomoyo walk in the door, Sakura and Kero-Chan walked to the door and opened it. Tomoyo entered the room and hugged Sakura unexpectedly.
 
“Thank god you’re alive!”
 
“It was thanks to the mirror card over there” Sakura commented,
 
The group waited a long time before it was 1, Sakura remembered how to cook and made sandwiches for all, Kero enjoyed them as did Yue, who didn’t say he was going to eat, he gave a taste anyway. Finally Tomoyo thought it was time and walked to the telephone and rung up Tomoyo-Chan, meanwhile Tomoyo-chan and Sakura –Chan were carrying out bags of stuff, because of there earliness they managed to pick up good deals. Tomoyo-Chan was in the park and picked up the phone
 
“Hello”
 
“Tomoyo-Chan its me, Tomoyo. Come to Sakura’s house we are here and waiting, the practice was cancelled”
 
“Practice cancelled?” Tomoyo-Chan said back.
 
“Yes, remember?”
 
“Oh. right then, thank you” Tomoyo turns of the phone.
 
“Was choir practice cancelled?” asked Sakura-Chan.
 
“Yes, you want to got to your house?”
 
“Ok, I’ll make lunch?”
 
“Sure”
Sakura and Tomoyo looked from Sakura’s window and paused a view of Sakura-Chan and Tomoyo-Chan, slowly the heated sun brought the time closer, finally they enter the house, Kero leaps up and flies down to the front entrance and greets them both. Sakura-Chan then goes to the room followed by Tomoyo-chan. Sakura enters the room and sees Sakura at the desk with Tomoyo standing next to her, Yue, and mirror are behing the door.
 
“What the? Mirror I told you, no forming unless I told you.
 
“But we are not the mirror card, now listen to us carefully”
 
“no mirror, no jokes”
 
“there not joking” Yue starts
“But?”
 
“There not who you think they are” the mirror card adds
 
“What a second, Mirror? Yue? Kero? Tomoyo-Chan? What is going on? Who are these people?”
 
“Sakura-san, meet Sakura san…from the future” Yue announced.
 
Sakura-Chan fainted.
 
 
5 minutes past before Sakura-Chan awoke to the face of Kero. Frightened Sakura moves back and bumps into Sakura. She fearfully looks at her future self and uniform, then at the future Tomoyo. This time she doesn’t faint but gets up and looks at the very person she will be. Trying to rest she sits on the bed, and checks her head, realising that she not ill, she looks at them and talks,
 
“Why did you come?”
 
“To prevent to bleak future…”

I KNOW, SHORTER. IT WILL GET FUNNY SOON.
COMING SOON ON “Sakura’s Chance in time, the only chance in time”
