Description
It was midnight, and Syaoran was sleeping in Kamejya's room when someone entered the house. The noise of steps woke him up. Kamejya got up and went to the entrance, and Syaoran followed him.

A boy entered the house. He looked like Kamejya, but he was younger and his appearance was more formal. He held a thick red book, and smelled the air with a disgusted expression on his face.

"It stinks here." He said simply.

"Welcome home." Kamejya said. Syaoran noticed Linone wasn't there.

The boy looked at Syaoran, and his expression became more disgusted.

"My… my name is Gudamera." Syaoran hurried to say.

"Oh… So it comes from you." The boy replied. "I can't believe… no, I actually can believe you brought here that cursed boy again." He spoke to Kamejya. "You know the king is looking for him. He can't hide here too much time, even with a fake name."

"He isn't him, Taldnaen!" Kamejya protected Syaoran. "You know that the origin…" He stopped when he saw the confused expression on Syaoran's face.

"They should kill her soon." The boy said, and entered the other room.

"Please, forgive Taldnaen." Kamejya added. He turned around and went to his room.

"Are you coming?" He asked Syaoran.

Syaoran shook his head. "I'll stay here for a while." He sat on Linone's bed and hugged his knees, thinking.

And before he noticed that, he fell asleep.

Syaoran found himself in the hall of an elementary school. Lots of students were there, and none of them seemed to notice Syaoran.

Syaoran looked around, and saw a familiar boy leaning against the wall. Another Syaoran. He talked to a young man, who looked familiar too.

"I want to start… from the beginning." The man said. "This is for you." He gave the other Syaoran a thick book in a brown hard cover with the English letters TRC on it. The other Syaoran opened the book. It was empty. Nothing was written in it.

"What is this?" The other Syaoran asked.

The man smiled. "This is… your story. The story of a big dream. Your dream."

Syaoran went to them. They didn't notice him. Am I… in a dream?

"But it's empty." The other Syaoran said.

"Don't worry. As soon as your story will begin… this story of yours will be written." The man said, and smiled.

His story? Syaoran asked himself. Or maybe…my story?

The man walked away.

"W… Wait!" The other Syaoran cried. "Wait! Taldnaen!"

Tald… Taldnaen!

Taldnaen. Just like Kamejya's brother...

"Syaoran…"

A feminine voice woke Syaoran up.

"Syaoran… wake up…"

Syaoran opened his eyes.

"They came to pick you up."

Syaoran found himself in Kamejya's bed, lying next to him. Linone stood in the room's entrance. Kamejya woke up too.

"Get up, Syaoran. I'm sure you want to see… that girl."
