Chapter Three: The Letter
"Sakura what is this?" Sakura poked her head around the corner and
looked at Tori's face and smiled
"Oh that, well um you see I forgot that it was only lunch and I went
home early and when I realised that it was only lunch it was too late
to go back to school,
" So you see." Sakura stopped as Tori looked at her in exasperation.
"Not that squirt, this." Tori held up a note that had newspaper
clipping stuck all over it, it was a letter like those ones bombers
send the police. Sakura narrowed her eyes at it and came forward to
take it from Tori. "Well?" he asked peering at her.
"I don't know, it's not mine, but ill keep it." Sakura poked her
tongue out at Tori and ran back to her room.
"So what's this about skipping school?" Tori yelled.
"Oh never mind Tori, you'll know soon enough." Sakura yelled back, she
jumped on her bed and started reading the letter.

Sakura dropped the letter and ran to her drawers and pulled the bottom
one open, Kero was in there asleep she picked him up and started to
shake him.
"Wake up!!!!!!" Sakura yelled
Kero woke with a start and yelled angrily at Sakura to let him go, she
did and ran back to her bed to the letter.
"Look, look at this" Sakura yelled stuffing the letter under Kero's
nose. Sakura watched intently as Kero read the letter finally he
turned to her.
"Who sent this?" He asked, Sakura looked at Kero exasperated.
"I don't know, that's why I'm showing you." Sakura said through
gritted teeth. Kero looked at Sakura and smiled.
"It's a Card" He said, Sakura looked at Kero, funny the way he always
knows if it's a card, she thought as she sat on the bed.
"What card?"
"I don't know, but it is very crafty, you'll have to watch out." And
with that Kero went back to his draw and fell to sleep instantly.
Sakura sighed and put the letter on her desk, Li would know Sakura
mussed, and I am just as good as him, ill find this card and I will
capture it.
Li Syaoran's home
Urg I hate Sakura, Tri stomped around her room, the picture of that
girl with Li, her Li in her head. He is mine and she will not get him
back, to think that she tried that bump into you on accident stunt
while I was there, Tri had these thoughts flying around her head. Tri
knew the only reason Li broke up with Sakura was because of the elders
and her, Tri smiled; well at least I could do one thing to get her out
of the way. Tri looked at her maths work and smiled, I wont have to do
this for much longer.
"Tri, are you coming down for tea?" Tri turned around and looked at
Li,
"Yes, come in here." Li was about to say no when Tri grabbed at him.
Li cried out and tried to get away as Tri shut the door behind them.
Meilin looked at Tri and Li as they came down for tea, Li looked
different his eyes were blank almost unseeing. Li looked at Meilin and
smirked but said nothing. Tri was looking happier then ever and she
smiled warmly at Meilin.
"I am looking forward to tomorrow," She said, her eyes twinkling.
Tuesday
Madison noticed how bland everyone looked the next day at school, none
of their usual spark was in them, they all had a blank look about
them, which scared her. The schoolyard was alive and noisy as always
but it was without its usual life.
Madison watched as Sakura walked into the schoolyard.
"What no skates today?"
"I couldn't find them" Sakura said smiling, "Tori drove me, and
Madison never and I mean never get in a car with Tori, he can not
drive, who ever gave him a drivers licence has no brain."
"That's a bit harsh Sakura." Madison said trying not to laugh.
"Sakura, do you notice anything odd, about everyone else I mean."
"Yeah I do, its like..."
"Like they have no life, like they have no spirit."
"Shhh, don't say things like that." Sakura said and giving a wavering
smile Sakura walked off to class.
End of School
"Madison bring the outfit later on tonight," Sakura yelled as she
walked past and out of the school gates. Madison yelled that she would
and waved goodbye.
Well that was a weird day, Sakura said to herself recalling all the
lifeless people walking around the school, they had their usual
personalities but..... They were lifeless inside, like they were being
controlled. Sakura shivered and stopped walking. Sakura hadn't
realised that she was at the penguin park and looking around she
sighed, no one visited it anymore, ever since people had been sighting
ghosts. Sakura smiled at the thought, she hated ghosts as much as the
next person but she walked over to it and sat down on the bottom of
the slide.
"Sakura, I thought id find you here." That voice... Sakura turned
around to face Li, he was in his battle costume, unchanged from the
very first time she had seen it and he had his sword out. "Now you
will die" Sakura stood ready to defend herself, but Li was much more
skilled and came at her as quick as lightning, his hand fastening
around her neck forcing her to her knees, Syaoran flashed his sword in
the sun light ready to plunge it into the smooth flesh of her neck.
"Li please, please" Sakura pleaded but seeing his lifeless eyes she
saw no hope, tears streamed down her cheeks, Li grabbed Sakura's hair
to expose her neck forcing her head back, he smiled evilly and got
ready to strike. He swung his sword
"SYAORAN!" Sakura screamed and he stopped, his sword pressing at her
neck drawing a little blood that dripped onto the sword and ran down
Sakura's neck. Li looked down at Sakura and pulled his sword quickly
away from her and sheathed it.
"Sakura?" He asked in a hoarse whisper, it had taken all of his
strength to brake through the barrier that had held him imprisoned in
his mind. Sakura had pulled herself into a ball as soon a Li had let
her go, she was trembling uncontrollably. Syaoran looked at her then
realising what he had almost done turned and ran away, trying to out
run his memory of almost killing his love.
Tri stomped her foot in exasperation, I almost had her. She screamed
inside her head. She turned her cold eyes toward the parks direction
and cursed, next time she wont be so lucky, Tri promised punching her
palm with her fist, next time.
