There's no going back to those days,
but I swear that now, I'll beat out your sorrow
I may not overcome it unharmed,
exhaustively marking the footprints
of the journey to meet you again
You once taught me that
the pounding of the heart is what drives us on
They haven't taken our future away,
and knowing that, I can go on
Just go on
As long as you smile, as long as you can sing,
that becomes everything that I desire
Wow
The courage you've given me, the kindness you've shown me,
gives me the strength to look forward and walk on
We've arrived in the next world!
This land is fairly urban, huh?
And it looks like the season is winter.
Thank you.
Mekyo!!
Syaoran! Sakura! There's a feather, right over there!
Princess...
Right.
Princess, your feather...
...is being sold in a store.
That is...
...the real thing, right?
No doubt about it. But the feather's wavelength is very low.
I thought that feathers had an incredible amount of power in them.
I don't know why, but it appears that in this world,
the feather's power gets weaker.
Oh, might you be customers?
I found this feather... yes, it must have been three years ago now.
As I was walking through the park one morning,
I found it caught in a tree. It was very pretty,
so I made it into a broach in my studio.
How much does this cost?
100,000 yules.
Yules?
That's the unit of money in this land, right?
Um, we just arrived here from a foreign land,
so we're not very knowledgeable about the value of money in this land.
Let's say this was a coffee shop. How much would this drink cost?
One cup of coffee would be about 350 yules, I'd say.
So then, 100,000 yules would be...
Quite a high price, huh?
Hey, this is something you just picked up, right?
Why is the price so high?
There is the processing cost, but also,
the jewels arranged around the feather have their costs, as well.
Then, just give us the feather.
I'm afraid I can't.
Please... sell it to me.
Easy for you to say, but what about the money?
I will work.
I will find a job in this land, work, and make some money.
So pretty...
I'll refrain from selling it to any other customers, but only for three days.
Well then, what do we do now?
First, let's get some money for this land ready, like we always do.
We first need to use that money to secure a place to stay.
I suppose we can't very well camp out here, huh?
Wow!
Each one of these are treasures!
Aren't they? They're all things that you'd rarely come by anywhere else.
If you take them to a store, I'm sure you could sell them for a high price.
All right. In that case, I'll buy this one, and this one, and this one.
Come to mention it, you said earlier
that you were looking for jobs here in this land, huh?
If so, I'll let you in on some valuable information.
That's the information broker for you.
Huh?
Nothing, it's an inside joke.
If you want to find work, there is a facility
called a Work Introductions Center near here,
but maybe you shouldn't expect too much.
Why is that?
This land may look like it's flourishing...
but there isn't much work.
They want to work, but they can't, so they're hard up.
Good morn...
Good morning.
What's with those outfits, guys?
Fai-san found them for us at the morning market.
There was this nice used-clothes shop there.
I prepared some clothes for you, too, Sakura-chan,
so you can change into them later.
Thank you very much.
Then again, you'd best not leave your room.
How come?
I heard at the used-clothes shop that this land isn't all that safe.
We're going to go look for jobs.
Princess, please wait here with Mokona.
But...
Mokona wants to work, too!
We do have a job for you.
Puu?
Mokona, can you stand guard over this feather,
which we obtained not long ago?
Aye, aye, sir!
This is the Work Introductions Center, right?
I hope we can find some good jobs.
In any case, nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Mokona is on guard duty.
Sakura! Come here a minute!
What's the matter, Moko-chan?
Nothing gained, all right.
More like crumbled to pieces.
I thought that we would be able to find at least one job.
What do we do?
At this point, we'll have to hoof it to find something.
It might be more efficient for the three of us to split up.
The hijutsu's power wore off!
Princess Sakura, this is the town's market.
Wow!
Take a good look, Sakura.
This is how the people of Clow Country live.
Princess! Wait!
Why, that little...
There's no meaning for us to sneak around if she does that!
Here you go.
Princess!
Thank you very much.
You know what? I have a favor to ask.
What is it?
Well, you see, the thing is...
Are you awake?
Did I fall asleep?
Mm-hmm.
I wonder what favor I asked her after that.
Moko-chan, let's go.
Go? Where to?
Welcome to the Work Introductions Center. First, tell me your name.
It's Sakura.
Do you have any previous work experience?
Let's see... I worked at a cafe once, called "Cat's Eye."
Also, she once entered a race in a land named Piffle World.
Understood. Now then, please wait just a moment.
Times have been pretty hard lately, and there is hardly any work.
Ah, here's something.
How about this one?
Your name is Sakura-chan...
Experience waiting on customers...
Yes.
If you've gotten an introduction from the center, there's no mistake.
All right, let's put you to work right away.
When you say work, where will that be?
This is our stand, here.
It's named "King of Bistros," or alternately, "King's Bistro."
Does this look right?
Not bad at all.
No, it looks very good on you.
Thank you very much.
Sakura, show them that thing we practiced earlier.
Thanks for coming! Welcome to King's Bistro!
--Thanks for coming! --Thanks for conjuring!
I'm sorry, but we don't have any seats right now.
Please wait for a little while.
Sakura-chan, clean up table 5.
Right!
Hey, Sakura! Two King's Lunch, order up!
I'll be right there!
It's not nice to drop name-suffixes.
Oh, quit your whining, we're too busy for that.
I really don't mind.
Thank you for waiting.
This is bad.
Think you can fix it?
I hate to say it, but there's no way.
Sakura-chan, sorry about this.
King's Bistro will have to close down for a while.
Oh, no...
Syaoran-kun, find any work?
Not really.
Kuro-sama said he didn't have any luck, either.
Neither did you, did you?
At this point, we take final measures.
Final measures?
What would that be?
That was disastrous, huh?
Did you get the money for the work you did today?
Yes.
They made sure to pay us.
Then, let me introduce you to a new job.
Sakura-san, I recall you mentioned that you have experience entering races, right?
Well, more or less.
Sakura was the one who won the Dragonfly Race!
In that case, you must be skilled at driving automobiles.
Here, take this one.
You have experience winning races, huh?
That's a big deal. You wouldn't guess by looking at you.
Y-Yeah...
So, what kind of job is it?
Over there.
Please get yourself accustomed to the way it handles.
It's pretty easy, so I think you'll learn right away.
What do I do?
You were able to pilot a Dragonfly, so I'm sure you'll do fine.
But that's because Syaoran-kun showed me how.
I wonder how hard this is.
The brake! Step on the brake!
--Where is the brake?! --Watch out!
Sakura, you're not cut out for this job.
I don't think so, either.
There is one more job remaining,
but to be honest, I can't recommend it very much.
Why is that?
The truth of it is...
Are you, by any chance, the girl that wants to work here?
Y-Yes.
I got a call from the center.
Well, don't just stand there. Do you want to change your clothes for me?
Yes.
Not that room. The one next to it.
R-Right.
I'm done changing.
Looks good on you. Okay then, how about you get cracking?
Right.
T-Thank you for waiting.
Thanks.
Sure.
The customers here are not at all as scary as we thought, huh?
Mm-hmm.
Well, of course. That's 'cuz they're all folks that I,
the manager, have been working on.
Listen to you!
Pardon the intrusion.
You guys!
Okay, this place is going out of business today.
It'd be in your best interests to leave, now.
Caldina-chan, I trust that you'll have a favorable answer for me today.
If you turn over your shop to me, just the way it is,
then we can settle this nice and amicably.
Of course, I'll pay you money for--
That's my answer!
Why, you...
How dare you do that to the boss!
Fine, then. If you won't listen to words,
then we'll just have to twist your arm by force.
We won't lay a hand on you. Instead...
She doesn't have anything to do with this!
Syaoran-kun?
Princess, what are you doing here?
Who do you think you are?!
A special guardsman that I hired to take care of the likes of you!
He's incredibly strong!
You've got some nerve! Get him!
Kuro-pon... Fai...
Good evening.
Hey, you guys!
S-See you all later.
Don't leave me behind!
That probably taught them their lesson.
You guys outdid yourselves. Here's the guardsmen pay I promised.
However, I'm deducting some to pay for the chair that you broke.
Oh, no...
And as for this sum,
Sakura-chan, this is your wage for working here.
Take it.
Thank you very much.
That's 100,000 yules, to be sure. Wait here.
Imagine, you even going to work, Princess.
I'm sorry.
There's nothing to apologize for.
If it wasn't for you, Sakura-chan, we wouldn't have had enough money.
If only someone hadn't broken that chair.
Oh, so it's my fault?!
It looks like you worked hard for this, too, huh?
No, just a little bit.
Sakura had a really hard time of it.
I see.
Still, it was fun, wasn't it?
Yeah, but we had some terrible things happen, too.
Which is what makes it fun, doesn't it?
Isn't that right, Sakura-san?
Yes.
Syaoran-kun, hurry and tell Sakura-chan...
I-It looks very good on you, Princess.
Thanks.
Come, step right up. The apples are very cheap here today.
Princess, you have to speak louder, or nobody will buy them from you.
Okay.
Come, step right up!
That Sakura, stepping out on her own...
Then again, a princess that loves the way people live
is in turn sure to be loved by everyone.
Yeah, you're right.
Thank you very much!
You haven't yet realized
that the two of us have the power to change even yesterday
For no reason, I'm lonely (lonely)
with tears streaming down my face
I'm missing my one and only (only)
the one I trace out in the sky, and that's you
Take my, take my hand, and let's go on together,
reach out, reach out your hand, and catch hold of the wind,
take my, take my hand, and do not be afraid,
hold my, hold my hand, and I can fly,
when I'm with you
Puu!
This next world is a place where a great, almost godlike king reigns.
They say that when you enter this land,
you gain a mysterious power, called senriki.
As a result, Syaoran, Fai, Kuro-pon, and even Sakura...
What happens to everyone, you ask? Just wait until you see!
Tsubasa Chronicles, " Feather-King Chaos."
Next time, your heart will pound over a momentary cosplay!
