Hi! This is my first TRC ficcy, so don't go too hard on me, okay: D This is sort of a prologue so don't expect too much…

"Mister Seishoru!"

"Syaoran! Don't come any closer!"

"No!" Syaoran began running towards Mister Seishoru.

"Stay beck, Syaoran!" Mr. Seishoru told him firmly. He held his hand back and Syaoran felt a burst of magical energy knock him backwards.

"Mister…" Syaoran said weakly. The rain was beating down hard on his back. He had to save Mister Seishoru. Without him, there would not have been a Syaoran walking on the face of this earth. And Syaoran would not have met Sakura.

"I'm coming!" Kurogane ran up and forced away the attackers. The fresh bout of energy enabled him to pick up Mister Seishoru and Syaoran and flee. In the heavy rain, his figure soon disappeared…

"Mister Seishoru?"

"S… Syaoran…" Mister Seishoru raised his hand weakly for Syaoran to grasp.

"Don't worry, you'll be fine…" Syaoran tried the best to fight back his tears.

"Syaoran… I know my time is up… I know you want…" Mister Seishoru drew out a Tsubasa. The final Tsubasa they needed. Then all of Sakura's memories would be recovered… without Syaoran.

"Sir!" Syaoran pushed the hand back. "You'll die without it! You need its energy to keep alive!"

"Not for long," Mister Seishoru sighed. "I will die all the same, why not sooner, to rid myself of this pain?" he smiled weakly at Syaoran, the boy he saved, the last sight he was going to see before he entered his eternal sleep…

"Mister Seishoru died." Syaoran announced dryly as he walked out of the room.

"Poor thing," Sakura was crying. Even though she didn't know him well, it was always a pity to see a life slip away.

Syaoran showed her the Tsubasa. "We have it, Sakura. At last."

Sakura shook her head disbelievingly. "I never thought… he's such a good man… he sacrified himself for me to get my Tsubasa…"

"It was fate, Sakura," Fye comforted her gently as Sakura received her Tsubasa…

"--- look at those pretty birds!" Sakura could see herself pointing at the sky to someone… who?

She clasped her hands together happily as she sat with the person beside her, admiring the pretty white birds. They were so carefree, so happy… Sakura was in total peace.

"Don't you like them?" she asked the anonymous person.

The person made no response. Afraid that he was displeased, Sakura repeated the question.

"Of course I do, Sakura!" the person smiled at her..

Sakura jolted back to reality. Who was the person she was talking to? The voice was so familiar, but she just couldn't place it. Who could it be?

She told her memory to everyone there, pondering the question in her mind. She just didn't notice Syaoran slowly slinking out into the pouring rain, trying to hide his tears…
