Sakura getting used to transforming the Cards never gets sleepy even if she transform a Card, said Sakura. Tomoyo said as long as she's beside Sakura, she'll be safe no matter what danger would happen. It's in the PE class, students play one-to-one bascketball game, and Syaoran and Eriol happen to be opponents. When Syaoran is about to shoot Eriol took the ball of him and scored a goal. Even though getting the ball, Syaoran is distracted by Sakura who is watching how the game goes on. Eriol whispers an advice to him not to be distracted, so he succeeds in gettiing a goal. At this time the class ends.
Sakura and Syaoran drop by Tomoyo's house after school. He is still thinking about Sakura while she is changing into one of those costume Tomoyo made. Tomoyo suggested he should tell Sakura he's in love with her provided he cares for her. Sakura coming out in the costume, at the moment he is about to confess, Sakura senses Clow Reed's aura. The gang come back to school after dark, when Kero was mad at Syaoran who knew the incident before he could know it. Syaoran is questioning himself if he does good to Sakura like Tomoyo does.
There comes a backet bascketball bouncing before their eyes in the hall, when Clow Reed's aura graws stronger. Following the ball, they enter their classroom, but they can't find it. When openning the door, Sakura sees a different room adjoining beyond the doorway. Every time they open it, they see different rooms. They decided to plunge into the adjoing room, but the door shuts up before Tomoyo walks across the doorway. With the space continuum gong strange, no matter how hard they thought, not an idea do they think of to find Tomoyo. Syaoran encourages her when she's nearly crying, and they hear Tomoyo singing a song. Realizing that they're in the control room, Sakura has Syaoran and Kero turn on every light in school, then she transforms the Shadow Card. The tranformed Card leads the gang back to the classroom where Tomoyo is stuck inside. Then Clow Reed's aura disappered, and the space continuum gets back to normal.
On their way home, Sakura talks to Tomoyo about the encouragement from
Syaoran when she was about to cry. In fact, she is thanful to Syaoran
who has been helping her every time she's in trouble. Unfortunately,
when Syaoran is about to confess his feelings, Kero interrupted them
ruining the mood.
Syaoran watches Sakura talking to Eriol as he recalls the night before that he almost confessed his feeling to Sakura. Tomoyo asks him when he's going to tell her his feeling, but he replies he has something to do before it. In fact, he phoned Meiling to say that he has a news to tell her in his Christmas break. To his surprise, Meiling impatiently rushed to Japan on that day. Sakura too is surprised at the unexpcted reunion with joy. Hearing she has to go back to Hong Kong the next day, Sakura asked her to hang around together after school.
Sakura, Meiling, Tomoyo, and Syaoran was walking together after school, when Sakura was so happy about being with Meiling that she was beaming at Meiling all the way. Mysteriously, when they come in front of Penguin Park, the penguins made of stone fly to attcak them. Syaoran fights back at the penguins with his magic, while Meiling blocks their attack by her kung fu. Nevertheless, the King Penguin slide hovers with the penguin ornaments floating around it, shifting into its combat mode. Sakura is frightend as Meiling advised that she use the Freeze Card. Sakura transforms the card and froze the penguins, and Syaoran gave them the final blow with his lightning magic. Unfortunately, Meiling turns depressed at the moment she hears Syaoran call Sakura by her first name. Noticing the change on Meiling's look, Tomoyo reassures Meilin that they are good friends to rely on.
Back in Syaoran's apartment, before Syaoran could thoroughly tell the news to her, Meiling knew Syaoran had fallen in love with Sakura. She declares the break-off of their engagement as she desperately goes out to Tomoyo's house. Wei holds Syaoran back when he was about to follow her. Getting to Tomoyo's house, Meilin cries her heart out on Tomoyo's lap that she cannot hate Sakura because she knew Sakura was a good girl. But it has nothing to do with the tears she cannot hold back.
Next morning, Meiling acts as if she didn't mind the break-off of their engagement, and tells Syaoran to get along with Sakura. Then she takes a flight back to Hong Kong. A few days later, the three kids receive a letter for each from Meilin. They feel the heart of their precious friend away in Hong Kong when they read the respective letters.
The Mirror Card was talking to the deck of Cards. Sakura comes back home after transforming 4 Cards that night, then Mirror let her in through the window. Mirror wanted to say something, but a knock on the door interrupted; she has to return to her card form.
Next morning, on the way to school, Sakura is beginning to think about what present she can give to her family, but she feels as if she was forgetting something. Sakura and Touya decided to buy a new wallet for their father, and promise themselves to meet at the school gate at 4. Yukito is wearily sleeping in the classroom when Touya comes in, because he is running out of powers. Anxiously, Touya is trying to say something, but Nakuru interrupted. On the other hand, when Sakura on day duty comes into her classroom, Syaoran is already there. When he is trying to confess his feelings Takashi interrupted with one of his untrue stories, which turned Syaoran literally white.
After classes, leaving Syaoran to write a class journal, Sakura went to the music classroom, where Eriol is practicing piano. He is playing a hymn that includes gratitude to God send like water and grass. When Sakura runs out to the school gate, she sees Syaoran standing there. At this time, they sense the presence of Clow Reed. Sakura asked the Mirror Card to meet Touya in her place. Sakura and Syaoran take off to the scene before Mirror can say anything she wanted to say. Touya comes to the place in a few minutes, and knows the girl he is meeting isn't Sakura. Although he knows everying, he tells the Mirror to go shopping together.
Meanwhile, Sakura and Syaoran are fighting. The enermy is a guradrail that turned alive and attaks like a snake. Sakura has the Mist Card corrode it to soil. The moment she picks up the transformed Mist Card, she figures out what she has been worrying about. Touya and Mirror stop at a coffee shop after they bought a wallet. He gave her ribbons as the sign of appreciation for supporting Sakura all the time, and Mirror felt very happy.
Sakura comes home when Mirror is wating for her in Sakura's room. Sakura places and plays the tape in which she recorded the piano piece she played, and says the gratitude to the Sakura Cards. In response, Mirror says the appreciation to the mistress of the Cards representing all the Cards. When she turns back into her card form, she wears the ribbons given by Touya.
On the new year's day, Sakura wearing a kimono humming happily, goes downstairs to greet Touya “Happy new year,” but he begins teasing her as usual. At this time, Fujitaka walks into the room for greeting, though he has to walk back to his room because he has work to finish. Sakura enjoys reading the new year greeting cards she received from her friends; being naive as ever, she was fooled by Takashi's untrue story written in the card.
When Fujitaka has finished his work, Sakura, Touya, and Fujitaka go out to make a new year visiting to Tsukimine Shrine. Touya says Yukito will join them, but he never shows up. Then Touya goes to his house to see if he is OK. Besides, Sakura and Fujitaka happen to see Tomoyo and Sonomi in the shrine. Tomoyo starts videotaping as usual, while Fujikata says thanks to Sonomi for the meeting with his grandfather in law last year that she had arranged. Soon Sonomi had to leave for her company to attend the conference, and Fujitaka leaves too as he has to finish housekeeping chore. Sakura and Tomoyo stop by a fortune booth, where Eriol is working because there's no shrine maiden in the shrine. In giving them fortunes, Eriol secretly set a magic in Sakura's fortune. Tomoyo's fortune says “Daikichi” (Excellent) like ordinary fortune lucks, but Sakura's is different. It says, “Your new year's dream will show you the way to the truth.” Eriol explains to Sakura in a puzzled look that it's a special fortune.
Meanwhile, Touya stepping in Yukito's house finds his friend fade at the front door. Yukito wakes up a minute before losing consciousness in lack powers. On the other hand, Sakura and Tomoyo drop by Syaoran's apartment for new year's greeting, and Wei let them in. Sakura enjoyed the cakes shaped like a peach which were made by Syaoran.
On getting back to her room, Sakura told Kero that Yukito could not come to the shrine, when he notices Yue is nearing the critical moment of his existence. As soon as Sakura fell into asleep, the fortune she drew that day began glowing, and then the Sakura Cards glowed in response. Sakura hears someone calling her name in her dream, and as the voice guides her, she releases the key of the seal, and transforms the Dream Card into a Sakura Card. She finds herself flying above the town, but suddenly a darkness splashes out of Tsukimine Shrine covering the sun and the moon. She could see someone standing on the gate arch of the shrine, accompanied by someone with butterfly wings and a beast with wings on either sides. Kero wakes Sakura up because he worried to hear she was groaning in her dream. Like what she did in her dream, the Dream Card was already transformed. Listening Sakura about what she saw in the dream, Kero tells her it could be a prophetic dream.
