Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE
Chapitre 224: A Circle Without End
[Insert text: Memories of dreams revived / The destiny of their most precious person...]

4-5
Clone!Syaoran: Was it... / ...of the things that are to come?
Clone!Sakura: ...Yes.
Clone!Syaoran: Is there any way for that future to be changed...?
Clone!Sakura: ...The Syaoran upon whom you were originally modelled. / For him to be born as your own son... // ...should not be possible.

6-7
Clone!Sakura: Even considering the time that we once experienced... / If that child grows up, travels across dimensions, / visits Clow Country... / ...meets the other Princess Sakura, and is captured... / ...so that you and I can be created once more... // ...then this world...
Clone!Syaoran: ...will be repeating the same thing over and over. / Like a circle without end.

8-9
Clone!Sakura: The dream that I saw... / ...is the one moment... // ...that "did not exist", amongst all of the things that we have experienced.
Clone!Syaoran: Is that to be the way out of the endless circle?

10
Clone!Sakura: That is how I dreamed it. // And the two of them went their separate ways, never to meet again. // No matter how long they might wait... / Or what worlds they might visit...
Clone!Syaoran: That's terrible... // After making such a long and painful journey... / ...all that awaits him at the end of it is to be parted with the Princess...?
Clone!Sakura: I don't want them to have to go through that. / Not our son, and not my own "other self" either...
Clone!Syaoran: ...And you're absolutely sure that in your dream... / ...it was "Syaoran" and "Sakura" that you saw?
Clone!Sakura: ...Yes.

11
Clone!Syaoran: And even if they were you and I...
Clone!Sakura: ...that would not amount to having changed the future.

12-13
Clones!Syaoran/Sakura: Because we, too... / ...are also... / "Syaoran" and "Sakura".

14
Clone!Sakura: There was one more thing... // ...that I dreamed. // I met... // ...with a version of myself... / ...no... / ...of us, from another world.

15
CCS!Sakura: Take this. // This is a very precious thing to you, isn't it? // Even without the staff, the cards will still be right here with me. // I believe in them. // So you, too... / ...should believe. // Because no matter how your life may have begun... / ...you are still you.

16
CCS!Sakura: Your happiness is the happiness of the people who are precious to you. / So always believe. // In yourself... // ...and in the people you love. // That everyone... // ...will be all right... / ...for sure!
[TN: Screw you, CLAMP. >______< HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KEEP CONSISTENCY IN MY TRANSLATIONS OF THESE LINES WHEN YOU MIX AND MATCH THEM AND CHANGE THE MEANINGS EVERY TIME THEY APPEAR?! ...In other words, yes, this is the exact same conversation from chapter 217, only with extra lines added in to put everything in a new context. Gah. I'd go back and edit my trans of that chapter to make the lines match, except that it's physically impossible because they now mean completely different things. (I kind of want to check out the official English versions when they come out to see how the heck they're going to work their way around this ~~)]
