We're chasing dreams without end in a world without a guide.
These overlapping feelings pierce the beating of my heart
as the unwavering verse quietly goes on.
From far away in the sky, our shadows blur together
as our memories are recorded amid inevitability and whimsy.
Even if the whirlpools of time we pass through,
were to waste away, I'll still believe in your voice.
We're chasing dreams without end in a future without a guide.
And even if I lose my light, someday,
with the twinkling flame you lit in my heart,
these fragments of hope will change into wings
I haven't gotten back much of my memories,
so I'm not used to being distrusted by others...
It'll be all right.
I... believe you, Princess.
Thank you.
Once, the people who lived here valued silence as a virtue.
They kept important things to themselves, without putting them into words.
You need not hesitate, for that is originally yours.
You were the mastermind of all the incidents, weren't you... Dr. Kyle?
Syaoran-kun...
I've finally found the truth.
Tell me where the children and Sakura are.
Are you saying that I kidnapped the children? You're mistaken.
I followed that child because I was simply worried.
You mean this kid?
This kid is...
One of Mokona's 1 08 Secret Techniques; Super Transformation!
Way to go, Mokona.
Doctor, the children you hypnotized are being protected
by the town's vigilance committee.
Hypnotized? What are you talking about?
Everyone in town knows that you use hypnotherapy, Doctor.
I checked your medical records against the missing children's list
compiled by Glosum-san.
The children who disappeared had all undergone hypnotherapy with you...
...several days prior to their disappearance.
Black birds...
When I saw him, the child was pointing at the sky, but there were no birds to be seen.
Come away...
You were hypnotizing the children, so that on snowy nights,
when their tracks would be covered over,
the children would chase an imaginary bird,
and vanish on their own.
Wait just a minute.
How credible is that missing children's list to begin with?
I will vouch for its credibility.
Glosum-san...
I compiled that list by going door to door, visiting all the victims' homes.
I then lent it to these people, along with a copy of the historical records.
Glosum-san, you had a copy of the historical records, too?
Why are you so surprised?
Well, that's a problem, right?
After all, you ripped out the pages
you didn't want us to see from your copy you gave us.
Yeah, what a scum.
It's not true, right, Doctor? You kidnapping the children is a lie, right?
That's not true, right? Say it's a lie, Doctor!
It's true. I gathered up the children.
Doctor!
Why would you do such a thing?
There is something I want in that castle.
And the only ones that could retrieve it were the children.
Just for that?
Just for that? You can say such idiotic words
because you don't know how powerful this thing is.
You're... talking about Sakura's feather, right?
Where is everyone going?
It is time for them to rest.
At one time, this was a facility to protect the children,
so they are well taken care of here.
Then... I must take everyone back.
You cannot do it alone.
Then... I'll go get Syaoran-kun and the others.
I will lead you out of the castle.
--All right. --Come, this way.
What made you suspect me?
It's because...
Apparently, Glosum-san is after Sakura-san's feather,
which appears in the legend.
Even though no one talked about it, Doctor,
somehow you knew that the feather belonged to Sakura.
Please tell me where the children and Sakura are.
And one more thing...
Tell me who told you about... Sakura's feathers.
He's running on the water!
No, look carefully!
Let's go.
Princess, I'm coming!
Syaoran-kun!
What on earth?
It's the children!
Hey, there are kids over here, too!
Come on, you guys, take them outside the castle!
Okay!
Please take care of them.
Sakura-san!
Dr. Kyle!
Oh, I'm so glad you're okay.
Syaoran-kun and the others are waiting for you over there!
Come, let's go.
No, you mustn't!
Huh?
The one who was trying to get the feather is... this man!
What's wrong?
Come on, Sakura-san.
Sakura-san?
So you figured it out, huh?
Hand over that feather now.
No! This is mine...
Give it to me!
Run!
Princess Sakura!
Stay away!
Come on, hand over the feather.
No!
Give it to me!
No...
Give me the feather!
Syaoran!
Syaoran-kun!
Princess Sakura...
What's that sound?
Is it an earthquake?
No! This sound is...
What!?
How did the water...
Maybe the water gate that was stopping the flow of the river broke!
Come to think of it, Kuro-rin had...
So it's Kurogane's fault?
Pretty much.
Yeah, whatever...
Syaoran! Sakura!
Go on ahead!
But!
Let's go!
All right.
You're gonna desert your friends?
He'll be okay. If he says he's going to do it, then he'll do it.
That's how Syaoran-kun is.
Let's go, Princess!
Yes!
I'm not gonna let you get away!
The path splits up.
I've memorized the map of the castle.
If we go straight, it should lead us to the surface.
Stop! Give me the feather!
I'll take care of the Doctor. In the meantime, take this path.
It's a longer way, but it'll lead you outside.
I can't.
Syaoran-kun, I can't leave you behind.
Princess...
But if you don't, then...
I found you!
Princess Sakura...
Princess Emeraude!
Come, this way.
Syaoran-kun!
Princess!
Princess Sakura,
there's a secret door here that's not on the map.
Thank you.
Princess...
There's a door here.
Princess Emeraude told me.
Please believe me.
I would never...
...doubt your words, Princess.
Syaoran-kun...
What's that?
If the flow gets any faster, they won't be able to cross!
Are those two okay?
Here they come.
Come on!
Whoo!
You did it, Syaoran-kun.
What happened to Kyle?
That man...
You can say he went down with the castle...
Is Sakura okay?
She's fine. She's just passed out.
Well done, Syaoran-kun.
It wasn't me.
The one who found the feather was... the Princess.
Princess...
Princess Emeraude!
I wonder if Sakura-chan can see the golden-haired princess.
There's not a thing there!
No, I'm sure she's there...
The legendary princess...
I'm so happy I was able to return the feather to you.
Thank you so much for saving the children.
And now, I can finally rest.
Princess Emeraude.
Be careful.
Someone is always watching you.
Princess?
What does she mean?
She said that someone's always watching us...
But what was this Princess Emeraude that Sakura-chan saw?
So you think she was hypnotized too?
No, I don't think so.
Then is it the power of the feather?
But if that's the case, then the white manju bun would know.
What Princess Sakura saw may have been Princess Emeraude's spirit.
Like a spook?
So you're talking ghost?
Ever since Princess Sakura was little,
she has been able to talk to or see dead people and creatures.
Do all the people of Clow Country have that power?
No. As far as I know, the only ones are Princess Sakura and the High Priest.
But... Princess Emeraude is no longer here...
Yuko said that once the worries are gone, then the spirit leaves.
In other words, the soul can go and rest in peace.
The golden-haired princess must have been really worried about the children.
I wish Mokona could have seen that princess.
Oh, you can't see or sense ghosts, Mokona?
The only Mokona that can see ghosts are the black ones with the blue earrings.
Oh yeah, we saw that black manju bun-looking thing.
It looks like the white manju bun is really useless.
But Mokona worked hard! I was a big help!
Thank God!
You're okay?
Uh-huh.
I was so worried!
Mom!
Calm down now!
Mayor, why didn't you tell us
that Glosum-san was walking around every night looking for the children?!
It's not something I need to advertise...
You may not know this, but long ago,
people of this town considered silence to be a virtue.
Besides... I wasn't able to find the children by myself anyway.
Is that right? So we owe it all to those people?
Although, they certainly looked suspicious.
But the children owe their lives to them. I'd like to formally thank them.
Where did they go?
What does it say?
It's about Princess Emeraude.
"Please hand down the true legend of Princess Emeraude..."
They were an odd bunch of travelers.
I hope I see them again.
We're off to the next world!
Just hurry up and do it!
What's wrong?
Well...
The case may have been solved, but there's still an unsolved mystery, right?
An unsolved mystery?
What did Princess Emeraude mean when she said to you, Sakura-chan,
"someone is always watching you"?
There's one more thing that remains a mystery.
Who told Dr. Kyle about Princess Sakura's feathers?
Maybe it's the same person. The one who's watching and the one who told him.
I think so too.
In either case, it seems that there's someone meddling in our journey.
"Someone," huh?
Looks like that doctor failed.
The feather that fell in Jade Country
has been returned to the princess of Clow Country.
It is frustrating that there's only so much that I can meddle in,
but I take comfort in knowing that it's all for the powers I will be getting.
They're taking off.
We'll have our next hand ready too.
You know, when this town is bathed in twilight,
there will be a little seed that drops from your hand.
If you can call this trodden-down dirt a road,
does closing my eyes count as love?
If this world had been flat,
the two of us would never have met.
We were both running to keep our distance.
But now, without reducing speed,
no matter how far apart we are,
as the miracle repeats itself,
we will come face to face again.
We will come face to face again.
Puu! I'm Kurogane. It goes without saying that I'm the tough guy.
The next world is perfect for someone like me.
After all, it's a country where guys with strange masks battle each other for power.
Huh? Who am I going to fight? Just wait until you see!
Tsubasa Chronicles, Episode 16, "Strength and Kindness."
Next time, your heart will pound over the ancient god!
Come on, don't make me say that!
