(Author's notes) *Thoughts* ~time or place change~

Beautiful Minds Ch.2

As he placed Sakura back on her bed, Syaoran was fuming! *This Woman Is Impossible!!! Here she is, trying AGAIN to make the situation seem better than what it is. She could be...she...No! I won't think like that! Sakura is the most powerful person there is! She can't die from a sickness...can she?*

Tomoyo video taped from afar. She slightly smiled as she saw the many expressions cross Syaoran's face. *He must really be worried about Sakura...this sickness was so sudden and unexpected! But...no matter what happens, I'm sure she will be alright.*

Tomoyo turned to see the nurse. "Ummm, excuse me"

Syaoran jolted a bit from surprise.

"...visiting hours are now over...but please come back later ok?"

"Thank you very much. We will make sure to return." Tomoyo walked over to Sakura and hugged her unconscious body and whispered, "Bye Sakura. We will be back. I promise." Then she turned to Syaoran. "Ready to go?"

Syaoran was still looking at Sakura. "Yeah..."

Tomoyo turned and left the room.

Syaoran began to feel odd as if someone was whispering to him. *Who...* All thoughts in his mind seemed to disappear as a powerful wave of desire over took him and in his passion, he bent over Sakura and kissed her deeply on the lips.

"Syaoran..." Sakura whispered before sighing as she continued to slumber.

Syaoran quickly stood up blushing.*WHAT WAS I THINKING?!?!?!WHY DID SHE SAY MY NAME?!?!?!*

Tomoyo began to giggle silently. *I'm so glad I brought my camcorder! I absolutely MUST create a tape of this for Sakura when she gets better.* "Li? Are you coming?"

Syaoran went ridged and blushed even harder. "Y-Yes! I'm coming!" Just before he exited the room, he turned around to look at Sakura one more time. *I promise you Sakura...I will find a way to cure you.*

~Touya and Fujitaka~ *My dear Nadeshiko...what can I do? I know I promised to not cry of sadness after you died but...with Sakura in this condition, it's hard not to. Please help Sakura get better. I can not lose her to.* Fujitaka was currently kneeling by Sakura's bed praying with all his might that Sakura will pull through like she always does.

Touya walks in looking at his father. *Never, in the years since Mother passed, have I ever witnessed father like this...please...Kami...mother...help Sakura get well.* He then moved towards his father and placed a hand on his shoulder. "Sakura WILL get better father. I just know it."

Fujitaka jerked up in surprise and looked at his son. "Oh Touya...thank you."

Touya just nodded.

*In a deep dark place unknown to the world* A little creature of darkness kneeled before a great throne carved from black pearl in the shapes of serpents creating it. "Master Ryou...your plan is working! The young girl seems to be weakening greatly, just as you predicted."

The man sitting in the throne looked down at his messenger. "Very good, Nagurad. Are you sure you did everything as I have instructed?"

The creature now named Nagurad, nodded his head enthusiastically. "Yes, Master! I gave it to her as she slept, and the dreams have now begun...thanks to that kiss of the future Li clan leader. But Master...are you sure that this plan will work? If she defeats her nightmares like Lady Nadeshiko...-"

"ENOUGH!" bellowed Ryou. "She may be considered the most powerful sorcerer, but this spell is fool proof! My only concerns are with that infernal Li. I know that we needed him to begin the most deadly part of the spell, but he may also be the undoing of it as well...watch him...make sure he doesn't find anything. Understood?"

"Yes, Master." Nagurad bowed and then vanished into the shadows.

"Young Kinomoto shall me mine yet...her mother may have foolishly fought me at the cost of her own life...but this child shall not escape." He began to wave his hand around in small circles as a small collection of energy began to gather around him. "Now for the second part on my plan...to have her trust, I must become someone close to her..." The energy around him covered his body completely as it began to morph and glow into a smaller form. "HAHA! Perfect! Watch out Young Kinomoto, daughter of Nadeshiko, the time for your enslavement is at hand!" The dark light surrounding him slowly disappeared to reveal...

(Hmmmmm... to leave a cliff hanger or not to leave a cliff hanger... that IS the question isn't it... hehehe Awww come on! Y'all should know I'm not THAT mean...or am I? =^.-=)

The dark light surrounding him slowly disappeared to reveal... Syaoran?!?!?
