Tomoyo shot up in bed and looked around as she heard the Security alarm blaring in the halls. She woke her sleeping beauty and ran for the living room while Sakura looked for some clothes. She came out just as Tomoyo flipped to the Security Channel to see what was going on. ATTENTION ATENTION: A BREACH OF BUILDING SECURITY IN THE NORTH LOBBY HAS BEEN DETECTED. ALL RESIDENTS ARE ASKED TO LOCK THEIR DOORS AND REMAIN INSIDE. A VIDEO CLIP OF THE SUSPECT WILL BE SENT TO YOUR SCREENS SHORTLY. The screen switched and Tomoyo and Sakura were frozen with fear. It was Li. Somehow, he had escaped from prison and tracked them down. Tomoyo looked at the time the clip was recorded and started to panic. "Sakura! Quick, go hide in the bedroom! I'll call the Police!" Sakura did what she was asked and ran back to their room. Tomoyo ran to call the police as she heard him pounding on the door. She picked up the handset and tried to dial, but she was to scared to get the number right. Two more loud bangs, and the door gave way to Sayoran's strong legs. Tomoyo dropped the phone and tried to run to the bedroom, but was grabbed by the arm and spun around to see a furious Li staring at her with pure hatred in his eyes. "Where is she!?" Tomoyo was too afraid to answer. "Where the fuck is she!?" Tomoyo looked away as she said nothing. Li backhanded her, and she fell to the floor, hitting her head on the table leg. He pulled out his sword and started looking for Sakura. She cautiously made her way into the living room, clutching her staff tightly to her chest. "How dare you! Who do you think you are, leaving me!" He looked at her stomach and grew even more angry. "You bitch! You think you could keep being pregnant with my child a secret from me!?" "She's not yours! This child belongs to Tomoyo-chan and me!" Sayoran was shaking with fury, and lost control. "GOD'S OF THUNDER! ANSWER MY CALL!" He threw his sword against a scroll to call forth a lightning bolt to kill Sakura. But before it struck, Shield came to Sakura's rescue and protected her from death. He used all his stregnth, and kept on attacking. Shield couldn't take much more and he knew this. He stopped the lightning attack and pulled out another scroll. "GOD'S OF FIRE! ANSWER MY..." He was cut off as he felt vines wrapping around his arms. He looked back and saw that Sakura wasn't commanding the Wood card to do anything. It was acting on it's own! Before he lost all of the movement in his legs, he kicked Sakura and knocked her to the ground. The rest of the cards flew into the room and were floating in front of him. In the other room, Tomoyo stirred and started to regain conciousness. "You stupid clow cards! You're supposed to be mine! Not some dense, useless womans!" Shouted Sayoran. "What makes her so great? Why do you protect her!?" Tomoyo overheard his comments and struggled to walk over to him. "Because they love her." She said. "That's stupid! They're cards! They don't love people!" Tomoyo looked around and saw Sakura laying on the ground in the doorway. She walked over to her and kissed her on the forehead as she whispered into her ear. "Sakura-chan... I'm sorry." She stood up and walked over to the still struggling Li. She stood directly in front of him and picked up his sword. She grasped the heavy object in both hands and placed it on his chest. "I'll never, ever forgive you for hurting Sakura-chan. You have an evil heart. You don't deserve to live." Sakura started to wake up and was listening to Tomoyo's words. She stood up, walked over, and hugged her tightly from behind. "Tomoyo-chan... don't. Please don't kill him. I'll be alright." She leaned in and kissed Tomoyo with all her love. Tomoyo started to cry as she turned back and looked straight into Sayoran's eyes. She pushed the tip of the sword into his flesh, causing him to wince and moan in pain. A trail of warm, red liquid trickling down his chest and seeping through his shirt. With cold, emotionless eyes, she said: "I want you to leave. If you ever, I mean ever come back, call us, or bother us or our families again, I'll spend every last bit of money and stregnth to hunt you down and kill you." Her words echoed over, and over in his head. Never had he heard such words from the usually calm, dark haired woman. For the first time in his life, he was scared. Really, truly scared. He managed to mutter a pathetic 'Yes' and actually begged her to let him go. She looked to Sakura, and she nodded. Sakura asked Wood to release him. He looked at Sakura with a hateful look and Tomoyo yelled at him to get out. Police sirens could be heard in the backround as Li bolted out of the apartment and down the stairs. Tomoyo dropped the sword and threw herself into Sakura's arms. "Sakura-chan... I'm so sorry. I couldn't do anything." "Don't be sorry Tomoyo-chan. You did everything you could. You risked your life for me." Sakura looked at her glassy blue eyes and gave her a slow, tender kiss, running her fingers through Tomoyo's long, black hair. She broke the kiss and pulled her hand away when she felt something warm and wet on the back of her head. "Tomoyo-chan! Are you ok!? You're bleeding!" "I'm fine Sakura-chan. Are you ok?" She asked, as she wiped away some blood that came from Sakura's cut lip. A police officer came in and asked if they were ok. Even though they said yes, he asked that they go to the Hospital just in case. With Sakura being pregnant, Tomoyo thought it was a good idea and helped her downstairs. A forensics team was called, and they combed through the apartment looking for evidence while the girls were at the Hospital being treated for their injuries. The doctor said that Sakura would need stitches, so Tomoyo was fixed up first. She asked if she could call their families before Sakura was treated. She wanted to be with her for support. Tomoyo called her mother and Sakura's family while the Nurse prepared everything. Tomoyo returned and held Sakura's hand for reassurance. The nurse was very gentle, and finished in no time.
