*A Spark In The Dark*

Sakura walks in the dark forest, there's no stars, moon or any other light 'Where are my?' wondered Sakura. 'Is this a dream?' Then suddenly she saw a bright yellow light. And then Sakura saw a figure standing in a clearing, she walks towards it. Sakura couldn't make out whom the person is cause the lights too bright.

"Who are you?" asked Sakura

The figure didn't reply.

"What are you doing here?" asked Sakura again.

Then a flash of lighten hit the ground, suddenly the forest was on fire.

Sakura could felt fire burning around her, "What's happening? Help…Help..!" Soon she couldn't speak anymore, the smoke had surround her. Then everything turn black…

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

Sakura waked up on her bed. "Is only a dream.." she muttered.

She looked out the window and saw the sun's shining on the trees and birds are singing. The sky is blue with puffy white clouds. ' Is Morning 'thought Sakura as she get out of her bed. She took out a white dress with a blue star pattern and get dressed.

Sakura walked out the door expecting Syaoran sweeping the back yard but he's not here. Sakura guessed that she had waked up too early. With nothing to do Sakura decided to take a morning walk to the forest.

The Morning's quite, the birds singing are the only sound. Sakura walked towards the forest that Syaoran, Meiling and herself had passed earlier .Ten minutes later Sakura arrived at the forest, then she thought she had been to the forest. 'Is probably because she had seen the forest earlier.

Sakura entered the forest, she walked deeper and deeper into the forest until is too dark to see. For a moment Sakura thought she better be heading back then she saw a person's watching her from behind a tree. Mai, Mai had been watching her. Sakura waved but Mai disappeared to the other direction. ' Umm…that's weird.' Sakura thought. She followed the direction Mai had disappeared, but Mai's too fast. Sakura just about to head back when she saw a clearing, she had saw it somewhere, but where? Sakura wondered.

When Sakura arrived at the Li family shrine the breakfast had started.

"Where had you been Kinomoto? Aunt Yelan made us wait just because you weren't here and I'm starving!" grumbled Meiling.

"Is okay, don't blame Sakura" said Yelan

"I went for a morning walk." Sakura explained. She didn't tell the part when Mai watching her from behind a tree and then she disappeared.

Sakura notice Syaoran had been awfully quite during the breakfast So when she had finish helping Wei to wash the dishes Sakura hurried to Syaoran.

"What's wrong Syaoran?" asked Sakura

"Oh…is nothing, is just that I had a strange dream…"

Then Meiling comes running up to them and said angrily" Why are you talking to Sakura, especially alone!"

"Oh is nothing."

"Where should we go today?" asked Sakura as she changed the subject.

"Umm…I know! We could go for a picnic in the park!"

"Great idea!" smiled Sakura.

So they packed a big basket of food for the picnic. ' I'm sure Kero would like to come along.' Sakura thought happily.

Sakura, Syaoran and Meiling walked to the park, but just when then arrived at the park, they heard a scream.

"What happened?" asked Meiling

"Let's go and found out." Syaroan said.

Then they saw a lady running around screaming. As they get closer they saw smokes on the lady's expensive looking dress. The lady's dress is on fire!

"Watery, release and dispel!" whispered Sakura under her breath.

A stick of water appeared from the fountain and splashed on the lady's dress.

"Oh! My dress is ruined!" cried the lady with water dripping from her dress. She runs out the park complaining about her dress.

"Wow! That was a close one." Meiling said.

"Uh huh, but how did the dress got on fire?" Sakura asked.

"Hmm…Let's go and ask someone." Syoaran suggested.

They walked over to a man beside the fountain.

"Uh, excuse me sir? Did you happened to see how the lady's dress caught on fire?" asked Sakura politely.

"Well, I was reading and then I heard the scream, it seems the fire appeared from no where." the man said.

"Thanks"

"Sakura did you sense it?" asked Syaoran.

A familiar aura hit Sakura.

"A Clow Card!"

Syaoran nodded. " Is coming from the forest!"

They arrived at the forest.

"Is so dark!" shivered Sakura as they entered the forest. Is the second time Sakura went in the forest and Syaoran and Meiling are with her but she's still afraid, not the dark, but something else…

Suddenly Sakura saw a spark.

"What's that?" asked Sakura. She walks towards it, the spark grow into a small fire ball and it suddenly surrounded her. Once again she saw the burning flames and smelled the smoke. Just like… In her dream! She had sees the forest in the dream and the flames and smoke.

"HELP" Sakura shouted though the burning flames.

"We have to find some water!" yelled Meiling.

"The fountain is too far away and there's no lake or beach near. By the time you get help the whole forest would be gone." Syaoran said " Sakura! Use the watery card!" He shouted.

"I …can't…" coughed Sakura. " I can't…even see!"

"You have to Sakura or the whole forest would be burning down" yelled Syoaran as he watched the fast spreading fire.

"Key… that hides the force of darkness, show… your true form before me, I,… Sakura command you under contract, RELEASE!" said Sakura in the burning flames and smokes. The Clow key turns to the sealing wand. " Watery card, release and dispel!"

The watery surrounded the fire, and in a blink of an eye the flames turn to a small spark.

"Now Sakura!"

"Return to your power comfined!" said Sakura as she hold the sealing wand in her hand.

The small spark turns to a card and once again it flied away behind the dark shape of trees.

"Sakura! Are you okay?" asked Syaoran and Meiling.

"Yeah, I guess." Sakura muttered, she looked at a blurred figure behind the dark shadow of the trees.' Who's that?' she wondered. Then everything turns darker and darker.

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

When Sakura wakes up she find herself in the her bed. Syaoran, Meilng, Yelan and Wei are all looking at her worriedly.

"What happened?" asked Sakura weakly.

"You fainted, probably because all that smokes." Yelan explained. "Common, we better let Sakura get some rest." She said as the everyone went out the door.

"Sakura, Hmm… did you had a strange dream?" Syaoran asked just before he close the door.

"Yeah, Did you?"

"Uh huh, and its exactly what happened in the forest."

"Did you see anyone in the forest?" asked Sakura

"Nope and the Clow Card disappeared again." Syaoran said with a frown. "I better go now, you'll need some rest."

"Okay, Good night Syaoran."

"Night Sakura" said Syaoran as he closed the door.
