A/N: Sorry that it has taken this long to update this story and Trusting a Slytherin. I kind of last some steam, and then some medical problems came up. Did you know that it is possible to have the lower half of your twisted to the left, and the rest of your spin in the right position? And might I add, my band is going to nationals and I had finals and that I hate my english teacher and it's not because I'm a bad student, I actually won a national award. Sorry about the rant. It just kind of appeared. Anyway, I'll try to keep updating. If you want to review, please leave this bewilderd, beleagered author a crumb of support. I'll will give away virtual Kuro-tan plushies!!!

Disclaimer :This is my sandbox. You don't like the way I build my castle, leave and get your parents to buy you your own sandbox. Don'r ruin mine. And I do not own anything that Clamp owns. And Come to the Dark side, we have cookies!

Chapter 5

Tengashi tilted his head. "A tattu. I have never heard of those, but that is the same thing Oni-san described, but in different words."

Sakura smiled. Most others would be terrified of the thought of a boy whose body contained the spirit of a powerful combat sensei, but not Sakura. She was used to add things like this. One of the reason her brother had been so protective of her was because of that. She smiled at the new memory.

Flashback

Eleven year old Sakura, dressed in the clothes she had bullied ----------- into giving her, snuck down the palace corridor. Quietly, so as not to wake her brother or Yukito, she opened the side door to the palace. Taking a breath of the desert night air, she slipped out the door and right into her brother.

"Toya-sama!" she gasped, surprised and a little petulantly. "How did you catch me? I was so sneaky, and quiet, and now I can't go and check out the ruins that ----------- and his father just found!" She pouted, upset that she now wouldn't be able to spend time with her best friend.

Toya smirked a bit, "Well, it might be because you basically told me when I asked if you wanted to play a game of go, and you pleaded a headache. Little sister, you never have headaches. So, it was reasonable to assume that you wanted me to think you were in bed sick."

Sakura sighed. "Well, if you would just let me go out, I wouldn't have to sneak out. --------- and I were planning on investigating the tombs at the ruins." She sighed. "There was something about one of them. It was almost…unhappy."

Toya pinched the bridge of his nose. "That is why I am so reluctant to let you go out alone with just -----------. You have no fear of things that would terrify others. An angry spirit could come at you and you would walk fearlessly up to it and try to hug it." He shuddered. "Why don't you go with --------- and Yukito-san tomorrow and go see what that spirit wants."

Sakura hugged her brother, then scampered away down the steps away from her brother. "Well, I'll just go spend the night at-------- house with his dad. They said they were going to make me an apple dessert that --------- father picked up on his travels." She ran down to the village before he could stop her.

"SAKURA!!!!!"

She remembered all the villagers trying to hide the laughter as she came pelting through the village to ---------- house.

End Flashback

Sakura smiled at the memory, but was bothered by the fact that she couldn't remember that one name. She was sure that it was the same name she couldn't remember from all her other memories. She looked at Kurogane. "Big-Puppy-san, do you know anything else about tattus'?"

Kurogane wasn't sure if he should tell the two children sitting in front of him the rest of what he knew. He decided that if Tengashi's brother hadn't told him the rest of information, it wasn't his place to interfere. It wasn't his job to interfere with the politics of the village that the blind man lead. He assumed that the other man knew the other piece of knowledge about a tattu soul. Kurogane looked outside. "When do you think they are going to be back?"

Tengashi shrugged. "It could be a few minutes, hours or days. I think it won't be the days this time, though."

XxXxX

Fai shrugged. "Well, if that your price, then you have to pay it. Debts are bad, especially when they concern someone else."

Syaoran nodded. "I know. That's why I am going to be going with you, as well as Tengashi. I'll be leaving Rancaru in charge."

Fai nodded, then asked the question that he had asked the young boy earlier when they entered the caves. "You're young friend is Magi?"

Syaoran shook his head. " Not really. He is a tattu. He has two souls. One if them is the soul of my sensei on this world. His other soul is unflawed, pure, and as his age increases and he doesn't sully it, power will be attracted to him, and all the worlds elements will allow him to manipulate them, because that one soul is close to his own, like the soul of the world, because it is good and bad co-existing."

Fai rubbed his head. "Not getting it."

Syaoran shrugged. "Just be assured, he needs someone who can train him, and you can, and that is the only one of the reason why he is traveling with us that I am telling you."
