Author's notes: Thanx to all those people out there who reviewed! And I would also like to thank the two reviewers who told me that the Lord of Nightmares is a female. (I didn't know since I only watched the first season of Slayers. I got almost everything from websites and stuff) Anyway, here's the next chapter. Please R and R!

Disclaimer: I don't own CCS or The Slayers. CLAMP own CCS and someone else out there owns Slayers. I do own Arisa, though.

A Twist of Personalities

Chapter 5: The dream

(They are at Sakura's house)

"So that's what happened!" Tomoyo exclaimed excitedly.

"Yeah, more or less…" Sakura muttered.

"And now you're capturing the cards? Oh, Sakura? Do me a favour?"

"Huh? What?"

"Please let me videotape you capturing the cards!" Tomoyo pleaded, looking at Sakura through puppy dog eyes, camera in hand.

"Errmmm…Yeah…I don't see why not?" Sakura stammered, sweat-dropping.

"YES!" Tomoyo shouted gleefully.

"Oh boy, the situation here is getting weirder and weirder." Arisa sighed.

"Isn't that great? I'll be able to see myself on TV! I'll be so handsome!" Kero said proudly. "Oh yeah! Why do you seem so quiet all of the sudden, brat?"

Syaoran, who was sitting in a corner watching them, or rather, daydreaming, was startled by the sudden appearance of a tiny yellow stuffed animal in front of him.

"Ah! Don't do that!"

"Well, seems that the brat is daydreaming!"

"No I'm not!"

"Quit it! You two!" Sakura suddenly shouted. It made everyone freeze on the spot. Sakura can be deafeningly loud sometimes.

"Err…sorry." She added, seeing the results of her scream. "But I think that everybody should go home right now if we have nothing better to do then quarrel or speak nonsense."

"That's a good idea." Kero murmured angrily before flying away into his drawer.

~*~*~*~*~*~ LATER ~*~*~*~*~*~

'Can't Kero find anything better to do than play videogames, eat and quarrel with that Li jerk?' Sakura thought. It was nighttime and she was lying in her bed. She glanced outside. There was a full moon that night.

"It's beautiful…" she whispered before she fell asleep.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Sakura woke to find herself in an empty void of space.

'So, you've finally came.' A voice spoke into her mind, yet she could almost hear it.

"Who!" Sakura shouted, trying to neglect the fact that the voice sounded haunting in a way, and also, familiar.

'Afraid, are you?' It came again.

"Who are you?" Sakura shouted again.

'You have no need to know. At least, not now.'

"Why?" She asked suspiciously.

'You do not need to know. And I cannot tell you."

"Than when can I know?"

'When the time comes, my lady, when the time comes.'

"When will that be?"

'You shall know. Be patient, my lady, be patient.'

"Lady?"

'Yes.'

"Why?"

'You shall know when the time comes.'

Sakura shivered, though not from the cold. Something about the voice seems unsettling.

'You need not be afraid. I mean no harm. I've only came to warn you. To alert you of your destiny.'

"My destiny? What does that mean?"

'You shall know in times to come, my lady.'

"Why do you always say that?" She asked, annoyed, yet nervous.

The thing laughed.

'Where have all your temper gone to? Blown away by the wind? You are actually frightened by something you do not know. You have gotten soft, my lady. Yet, it may be for the better.'

"Soft? What do you mean by that!" Sakura exclaimed.

'That is more like you.'

"What do you want? Why are you here?"

'As I said, you shall know when the time comes.'

The voice was getting fainter. A new, more familiar one was taking over.

"Wait! Don't go!"

'I shall come again. Next time.'

"Hey!" Sakura shouted before the sound of someone shouting took over her thoughts.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

"WAKE UP! SAKURA!"

"Huh…AHHHHHH!"

"ARGHHHH!"

"KERO! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"

"Alright! Just don't shout! I just want to tell you that you're almost late!"

"WHAT! Why didn't you tell me sooner!?"

"I tried…" Kero watched as Sakura threw on her clothes, grabbed her bag, and rushed out.

Kero sweat dropped.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Well, it's not very often we get to see you late." Arisa teased as Sakura dashed into the classroom split seconds before the bell rang.

"That's not funny! And anyway, I had a weird dream."

Arisa raised her eyebrows. It was one of those rare days when she did not wear her sunglasses.

"Tell you later." Sakura whispered as the teacher walked in. It wasn't exactly the wisest thing to communicate by mind when you have a test unless you want to cheat.

"Alright class! Settle down." The teacher said as he started to give out the test papers.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"So, there's this weird person who went into your dreams and calls you lady." Arisa asked when Sakura finished telling her about the dream.

"Yup. Exactly."

"What did he say to you, if we assume that it is a he?"

"Why don't to refer to it as an it." Sakura muttered.

"Whatever. But what did it say to you?"

"Something about telling me about my destiny."

"Weird."

"Like I said."

"Any idea who it could be?"

"I would have told you if I did. The problem is that I didn't."

"Not a clue?"

"Nope. The only thing it will tell me is that I will know when the time comes."

"Know what?"

"Dunno. It used that as an answer to almost every single question I asked."

"That's irritating."

"As if I said it's not."

"Do you think that it's someone's idea of a joke?"

"If it is, than it's not funny!"

"Especially when that person gets killed…" Arisa muttered.

"Did you just say something?" Sakura asked with her eyes narrowed.

"Nope."

Author's note: This chapter's finished at last. I'm sleepy so forgive me if it's short and stuff. I may change this chapter next time but this is it for now. I just escaped from what the school call 'life skills camp' (Which, in simpler words, a torture camp) and haven't got proper sleep for two nights (Had to sleep on the floor. Spent the time counting the tiles on the ceiling.) so I'm out of any new and good ideas for my fic and have to stick with this thing. Well, please r+r.
