AN- Finally done with this year of college. I really want to have the entire story
written before I graduate next May.
Sorry this chapter took so long to get out to you, but on a good note, I
got chapters 8 written, but chapter 9 is only 3/4ths complete. I�m sorry if these chapters aren�t as good as
previous ones, but I had writers block like you wouldn�t believe. Compile that with school and work and it�s
not a pretty picture. Let me know if
you like it!

A big
thanks goes to everyone who replied, and a huge thanks goes to Dr. Megalomaniac
for her review. My CCS fanfic idol
wrote me a reply!
WAIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Disclaim-I lay claim to nobody that CLAMP can lay claim to

�So your
Uncle had you betrothed to some other guy?� Meiling interrupted.

Millicent
held the magic projection in freeze frame.
�He did.�

�Are you
sure he wasn�t a Li?�

The spirit chuckled. �I�m positive. He was very much French, and very greedy. The family of the man he betrothed me to
paid him handsomely to secure me.�

�No>�No
offense,� Xiao Lang spoke up, � but what�s so special about you?�

�Hey! Watch your mouth Gaki, that�s my mother.�
Kero exclaimed.

�Calm
yourself Kero, I was not offended by his question.�

�I would be.�

�Yue,
you�re offended by everything.� The yellow guardian snapped.

�Urusai
Keroberos.� Yue shot back.

�Please
stop this.� Millicent demanded.

The
squabbling guardians quieted down.

�Thank
you. Now I shall answer my descendant�s
question. It all comes down to money,
influence, and magic. As the last of a
long line of French nobles, my family had quite a lot of money. We preferred country life to that of the
city, that is why my family escaped the Terror with all our possessions, long
before the people of Paris thought to come for us.�

�Didn�t
your tenants or peasants sell them out?�
Fujitaka asked, historically interested.

�They would
not do that. My family was good to our
people. When we left, we left the land,
the house, and a sum of money wthe the chief steward. They were happy, I�d assume.
As to the other aspects that made me a prime catch, my family attached
itself to the Reed�s, a powerful and influential family, not just in the
magical world.�

�We were
cool like that.�

�Sure
Eriol.�

�They were
though. The Reed name carried clout,
even though the official title had been lost decades before.�

�What title
did you have?� Sakura asked Eriol.

�Viscount
Westmoreland.� The young reincarnation replied.

�Not a Duke
or something fancy?� Meiling asked in that snooty, �I�m better than you� tone.

�No,
nothing that fancy in the Reed family, though if the Supinel�s had stayed in
France I would have been a Duchess.�

Xiao Lang
poked Eriol in the arm, �She had a better title than you.�

�Millie was
better in nearly every way.� It was
Eriol�s voice that spoke, but Clow�s eyes that stared at Millicent.

�What about
the magic?� Tomoyo asked. �Why didn�t they have a daughter or sister
marry Clow Reed themselves?�

�No, they
wouldn�t do that because not every magical family liked the Reeds. They wanted to take me away from him.�

�Not like
that would have happened.�

�Indeed
Kero.�

�What magic
do you have?� The current card mistress asked.

�Lunar
magic. It balanced Clow�s solar
magic.� The spirit said, fading
slightly to conserve magic.

�Like Kero
and Yue, and Ruby and Suppi balance each other.� Eriol stated.

�Yin Yang
theory.� Xiao Lang pondered.

�Exactly.�

�Mother
talked about it, but she said I�d understand when I took my destiny.� The
little wolf said, deep in thought.

�And do you
understand it?� Millicent asked.

�Aa,
wakatta.�

�Good.�

�Hoe?� Sakura was confused; Xiao Lang had said the
cards were his destiny, but she was the card mistress, what other destiny could
he have?

�You�ll
understand soon child.�

�Oh.�

�Were there
any other questions before I continue?�

�Actually,
yes.� Fujitaka spoke up.

�What are
they?�

�Why did
Clow have himself reincarnated into two souls?�

�I don�t
know the answer to that. Clow�s mind
was a curious place.�

�Mother,
that means that To-ya and Sakura are Clow�s children, right?�

�That is
correct Yue. Li Xiao Lang is from my
son�s line, and Sakura is from Clow�s new line. Just as any children Eriol has are also from Clow�s line.�

�If I�m
from Clow�s line, that makes you my mother as well?� Sakura asked, her mind torn with indecision.

�In a
fashion, yes. However, Touya, I would
not presume to take the place of your real mother.�

The
brooding young man nodded his head in acceptance of the statement. He would accept no one that would try to
replace his mother. Though he couldn�t
see her anymore, he could feel her presence, her love, and nothing could take
that away.

�Yue is
having a relationship with Clow�s son?�
Mei Ling asked.

�It
wouldn�t be the first time. Creepy
bastard.�

�Keroberos,
that�s quite enough from you!�

�Sorry
mom.�

�What did
Kero mean by �It wouldn�t be the first time�?�

�It will be
explained in time Sakura.�

�If the
stuffed animal was created before you came back into Clow�s life, why does he
call you mother?� Touya pondered.

�I am not a
stuffed animal!� A fuming Kero interjected.

Just as you have your own magic Xiao Lang, you also carry traces
of your parents magic.�

�So magic
is like a stream. s"> It flows but is
different.�

�Very
intuitive Tomoyo.�

�But Mom,
if I recognized Clow�s magic in Sakura, how come Yue didn�t?�

�Because
Yue had already recognized it in Touya.
He refused to accept Sakura because he had already accepted To-ya.�

�That makes
no sense though. If Sakura is card
mistress, Yue had to recognize her.�

�No he
didn�t. You see, To-ya is first born
and his magic more closely resembles Clow�s, so he was immediately drawn to
him.�

�Clow
really messed everyone up seriously.�
Mei Ling said, still rather confused.

�Clow was a
very odd man, I�ll give you that. I
don�t know why he did what he did.�

�If you
died, how come you know so much about things that happened afterward?� Xiao Lang asked with a hint of
suspiciousness.

�When I
sealed myself in the book, part of my consciousness went with my magic. I could hear and understand what was going
on, but my magic was weak, that is why my sons and Clow didn�t recognize it,
and couldn�t feel it.�

�Just
because you�re sealed away doesn�t mean you don�t know what�s going on around
you.� Kero interjected, munching a
cookie.

�You didn�t
know a lot when you came out of the book, Kero-chan.�

�I was
asleep for 30 years.�

�But that
doesn�t exp how how you knew about my family line.� Xiao Lang said.

�It�s in
the magic, little wolf. You don�t just
carry Clow�s magic, but my own. I know
everything that happened to my son�s line.�

�You keep
saying my son, my line, my family.
Why?� Fujitaka asked, not having
all of Clow�s memories, and was generally curious.

�My son
disinherited himself from Clow about ten years after my death.�

�So that
explains the decade gap in the library, the elders never could explain that.�

�What do
you mean Xiao Lang?�

�There�s a
gap in Clow�s library that starts after her human son turned four, and picks up
after he left at fourteen. No
explanation or anything. His journals
don�t even mention you or anything, just brief mentions of a woman making him
happy and giving him a son.�

�Clow was
very private, even in his writings. He
only ever wrote me three letters that expressed his feelings for me.� The
spirit smiles softly. �He preferred to
express with actions rather than words, considering he frequently said the
wrong thing at the wrong time.>
>

�But why
would he do that? Why would your son
disinherit himself from the Reeds?� Mei
Ling demanded.

�If you are
patient, I will tell you. Now to
continue my story.� Millicent said as
she unfroze the magic movie.
