Spinel : Because I've been following you for a long time. Eriol : It will be ending soon. Eriol : Sakura's magic has become considerably stronger. Eriol : From now on, I'm sure... Nakuru : Hey! The stew is gonna get cold if you don't hurry up. Eriol : Okay. I'll be right there. Nakuru : Geez. And I worked so hard at making dinner too. That Eriol and Suppi even. Nakuru : Look! Look! Look! Title : Sakura, the Past, and Clow Reed Kero : What's goin' on with this snow?! Yue : Arrows don't work... Sakura : I can't just keep running away. I've gotta do something to these snowmen. Sakura : This is enough! Sakura : O Card created by Clow, Sakura : discard thine old form and be reborn, Sakura : under the name of Sakura, thy new Mistress. Sakura : Snow ! Sakura : O Snow, retrieve them! Nakuru : Sakura somehow came through it again. Eriol : It will be very soon. Please keep it up, Sakura. Tomoyo : Sakura! Sakura : Tomoyo! Shaoran! Li : Are you all right? Tomoyo : What a pity I was unable to put on my new battle costume for you. Tomoyo : When the next mysterious event happens, please put it on for me, okay? Sakura : You know, it's not a good thing if mysterious events keep happening. Tomoyo : It will be okay. Tomoyo : If it's you. Kero : Right, right. One after another, you were able to change the Sakura Cards. Kero : Maybe Sakura's gonna become a sorceress like Clow. Sakura : No way... Kero : Say, don't you agree too, brat? Yue : No, not quite yet. Yue : She still has a long way to go to reach Clow's level. Kero : Don't make such a harsh comment. Yue : I'm just telling the truth. Sakura : Clow... Sakura : What's wrong? Can't fall asleep? Sakura : Hey Kero, what kind of person was Clow? Kero : Why all of a sudden? Sakura : It's just bothering me... Kero : See, you guys were just saying, if anything happens, it'll be okay with my magic now. Sakura : But Yue said I wasn't quite there yet, and... Kero : Well, Yukito still thinks about Clow all the time. Sakura : Kero, you don't think about Clow anymore? Kero : I guess. It's true that I can't forget him. Sakura : You're right. Kero : But that's a long time ago. Kero : Right now, you're our Mistress. Sakura : But I'm still far behind when it comes to Clow's level of magic. Sakura : Even when strange things were happening, I was only barely able to get through them. Sakura : I thought if I were Clow, things wouldn't turn out like this. Sakura : That's why I thought, was it really okay that I'm the new mistress... Kero : What are you talkin' about? Isn't that well decided already? Sakura : But... Kero : Clow is Clow. Sakura is Sakura. Kero : It can't be helped you are bein' compared to him. But you guys are incomparable. Kero : Now, stop thinking about that kinda thing and go right to bed. Kero : All right. Kero : Snow's fallin' today... Just like that day. Sakura : That day? Kero : What... You could hear me? Kero : Well, you keep mentionin' Clow, and that reminded me of the day he died. Sakura : The day Clow died? Kero : Yeah... Kero : It was around this season, on a snowy day just like this... Kero : He showed us absolutely no signs of it until that one day. Kero : And all of a sudden, he said his life has come to an end. Kero : He was a self-centered guy till the end. Kero : Maybe if he's still alive, he'll be making fun of us even now. Kero : What's wrong? Your eyes wide open like that... Sakura : You said maybe Clow is still alive... Could it be... Kero : I was just kiddin'. Kero : Yue and I saw Clow's death. He couldn't have been alive still. Sakura : Then why do we keep sensing Clow's aura when strange things were happening? Kero : That... Kero : Could Clow have done something before he died? Sakura : I'll go find out myself. Kero : From who? Sakura : From Clow! Li : What? With the card, Return ? Sakura : If I could go back to the past and ask Clow directly... Sakura : Maybe I'll understand what's been going on. Li : But Return will heavily use up your magic! Li : What if something happens in the middle of it?! Sakura : If I could borrow some power from the cherry blossom tree in Tsukimine Shrine, Sakura : Kero said it might work. Li : But that's still dangerous! Sakura : Thanks for worrying about me. Kero : Are you ready? Sakura : Return ! Sakura : I'm going! Tomoyo : Please be careful! Sakura : I'll definitely come back. I promise. Sakura : If you don't keep your promise, I'll make you swallow a thousand needles. Sakura : Then, I'll see you later. Sakura : Please, take me to the time before Clow passed away. Sakura : Clow... Sakura : Where am I? Sakura : That's Kero... Yue : What's wrong, Kerberos? Kero : It's you, Yue. Kero : It's spring already. But this cherry blossom tree alone just won't bloom. Yue : It'll bloom soon. Kero : Like how soon? Yue : Soon. Kero : What're you sayin'? Kero : Is it really gonna bloom... Sakura : I wonder what Kero and Yue are doing. Clow : They are waiting. Sakura : Excuse me, Clow, I... Clow : Thanks for the help. Clow : Are you pleased now? Kero : Geez, mind your own business. Sakura : Kero and Yue seem to be having a good time. Sakura : Both of them looked so happy. Clow : Did you sleep well? Sakura : Clow! You know, I... Clow : This is the best place for quietly taking afternoon naps. Sakura : But I... have something I need to ask you... Sakura : Hmm... About... Hmm... Clow : You came from the future. Sakura : Yes. Clow : So what is it that you want to ask me? Sakura : Hmm... Strange... Strange things are happening around me. Sakura : On top of that, I always sense your aura when these things happen. Sakura : So that is why I thought you might know something about this... Clow : What I know is already known. What I don't know is yet unknown. Sakura : What do you mean by that? Kero : Clow, you've used Bubble card on me for a long while... Kero : Stop it already... Clow : Oh dear. Sakura : This is pretty nice. Sakura : I'm a little jealous. Clow : How about you? Don't you like them too? Sakura : I love them! Kero, Yue, and the cards too... Sakura : But... But after all, I'm not you. Sakura : Please wait, Clow! Clow : Even summer is over... Clow : Seasons come and go naturally. Clow : Have you ever thought about their briefness? Clow : I have. Clow : Because I am just like fallen leaves that had experienced the changes in seasons. Sakura : Clow! Sakura : Huh? That chair... I'm sure it was the same as the one at Eriol's house... Yue : Explain, Clow! Yue : What do you mean... Clow : That was exactly what I meant, Yue. Clow : Today, I shall depart from this world. Kero : That's not a funny joke at all. Clow : I am sorry, but this is not a joke. Yue : Why?! Clow : It's the end of my life. Kero : The end of your life? Kero : You may be stubborn, but you're the world's most powerful sorceror. Kero : That is something we know very well. Clow : But even so, every living being must end its life at some point in time. Clow : That is why I must make preparations as well. Kero : Preparations for what? Clow : For the person that both of you will love after I die. Yue : I don't need another master! Clow : Then Yue, you will decide whether this person will be worthy of being the master. Yue : There's no one who can be worthy of it! Clow : It's not fair if only Yue gets to decide. Clow : Kerberos, you will decide on the candidate. Kero : Are you serious? Clow : Yue, Kerberos, and the Clow Cards are created from my power with all my heart. Clow : That's why, even if I no longer live, I want you to be happy with your new master. Clow : That is my last wish. Clow : Just like seasons which change without breaks, people change as well. Clow : That is the proper form of all living things in this world. sakura : What will happen to Kero and Yue? Clow : That is why I am giving them a new master. Clow : I believe they will be truly glad about it. sakura : But I... Clow : No. You will be fine. Clow : Please look after them for me. Clow : Please, Sakura? sakura : I am not able to! Because I... sakura : I can't become like you! sakura : I love Kero and Yue no less than you do. sakura : But after all... sakura : ...I'm not you... Clow : Of course you are not I. Clow : You are you. You will never be I. Clow : Therefore, you should live your own time to the best of your own ability. sakura : My time? Clow : The past cannot be changed or erased. Clow : But the future is always ahead of you. Clow : Now, even winter is over... Clow : A new spring has begun.

Song : Mienai chizu hiroge ikisaki sagasou Song : Let's open the invisible map and search for the future. Clow : It will be okay. I am I. You are you. Sakura : Only you alone can create your own future. Li : Are you all right, Sakura? Tomoyo : You did not get hurt, did you? Kero : So, how was it? Did you find out anythin'? Kero : Did you not see Clow? sakura : I did see him. But lots of things happened, and I don't remember... Kero : How could you have done that?! sakura : But come to think of it, why were Clow and you guys living in Eriol's house? Kero : Eriol... Isn't that your classmate? Kero : Hey now, Clow's dead already! Kero : Where did he die? Tomoyo : Do you not remember? Kero : Well my memories around that time... sakura : Yue didn't say anything either even though he's been to Eriol's house. Li : Your memories have been erased?! sakura : But by whom? Eriol : It was done by Clow. sakura : Eriol! Li : Who in the world are you... Eriol : In my present life, I'm Eriol. Eriol : And in my previous life, Clow Reed.
