Chapter 1- New enemies. What could this mean?

By: Star Angel

It's the middle of the night in Tomoeda and everybody is quiet in the Avalon house. Everyone is seeping peacefully, even Kero, well almost everyone, Sakura is tossing and turning thinking about Li. Almost three years had passed since Li had left for Hong Kong, and had been not able to visit Tomoeda, more accurately, Sakura. 'Phone calls and writing is all well and good' Sakura mused but it's not enough

With a groan she turned over and looked at her clock. It read 1:30 a.m. 'it seems like the same time I looked at last time! I really should get some sleep since its first day at Senjiu High.' She thought 'but thinking about it is not going to get me to sleep any faster.'

With a sigh Sakura sat up and tossed off her pink sheets and slipping on her wolf like slippers and robe started heading towards the purple door of her pink room. (She likes pink very much don't you think? Ok sorry, will get on with the story now.) " Sakura?" came a sleepy voice from the bottom drawer of her purple desk. "Where are you going?" said Kero to his mistress.

"Oh, to have some tea. Go back to bed Kero."

"Ok" he said so sleepy not even comprehending what comes with tea that he likes so much. (FOOD! 0o)

Kero closed the drawer and went back to bed. Sakura smiled faintly and continued on her way. When she came down stairs Sakura found her father Aiden Avalon had had the same idea.

"Hi Sakura, Aiden said with a smile, couldn't sleep either?"

" Hi daddy, yeah" Sakura said pouring herself a cup of tea.

"Worried about anything?" came a soft voice out of nowhere. Then the figure of Sakura's dead mother and Aidens dead wife began to fade in.

Aiden and Sakura jumped.

"My goodness don't do that Natasha! Its very unsettling" said Aiden.

Natasha just smiled "sorry, I can't help it. Its just one of those annoying things that come with being an angel" she said cheerfully.

Sakura after recovering from her shock said "yeah, some what, but its nothing really."

(Aiden started seeing and talking to Natasha when Eli split Clow Reed/Eli's magic between himself and Aiden. Sakura can see her mother because she's the most powerful sorceress in the world after recapturing the lost Clow cards and then turning them into Star cards with the power of her very own star. Aiden knows all about the Star cards and everything else that went on under his nose for the past two years when he accidentally caught Kero in the refrigerator eating the pudding Aiden had made for desert. Sorry had to get that in and to straighten out a few things.  Now back to the story. )

"Ok then, said Aiden, you better get to bed don't want to miss the first day of high school running late as usual?"

"No" Sakura said laughing then yawned hugely.

Then went back to bed.

Julian 's dream- Julian was in dream that he couldn't get out of. He suddenly sat bolt up right in bed sweating and heaving for breath. "Hey are you alright?" came a concerned sleepy voice from the bed next to him. (Ok for future reference I don't like Tori and Julian being together so if you don't like it tough. But keep reading if you feel like it. They both end up with someone. So don't worry.)

"No I'm not alright Tori." Julian said. He was breathing more easily now but his voice slightly shook.

"What is it?" Tori also sat up in his bed.

"It has to do with Sakura"

"What about Sakura?" Tori said more sharply than he intended too, but he was very protective of his little sister.

"A great danger is coming towards her and I need to, or at least my other half, has to go and protect her."

Julian said. His eyes briefly changed silver when Julian said my other half.

"Well, said Tori slowly, thinking, break is tomorrow, so why don't we hop on a plane and go to Tomoeda."

"Good idea Tori."

Tori smiled and put his hand on Julian's shoulder. "Hey that's what friends and big brothers are for right?"

"Right. Thanks Tori."

"So go back to sleep." Tori commanded his best friend as he himself went back to bed.

"Ok" Julian replied and lay back down in his bed. But didn't return to sleepdum (just made the word bare with me I do that often.) instead, he waited until he heard Tori breathing in deep sleep in the next bed did he get up out of bed and walk to the apartment window he and Tori shared to stare out at Big Ben that stood out above the British skyline. (Cool huh?) Without warning Julian changed into Yue. Soon he would be back to protect his mistress Sakura. But what was this strange aura? 'I think we will all find out before long.' He thought.Tori made a noise in his sleep. Yue turned to look at his other self's best friend and waited until Tori quieted down again. He turned back to the window. 'Soon.' He thought and changed back into Julian, then went back to bed.

The next day turned bright and sunny, as Sakura got up and changed into her new school uniform. Sakura was just about done brushing her long chestnut hair out when she heard a squeaky noise. She turned to see Kero sleepily poke his head out and teasingly ask, "Is the sun out this time you got up?"

She laughed her laugh sounding like a wind chime. "Yes, Kero, and if you don't hurry up you won't get any of Dad's good homemade waffles."

"WAFFLES!" shouted Kero "I'M IN!"

"Ok, ok said Sakura laughing again, come on." With long hair flying Sakura raced down the stairs, with Kero not far behind her, to the kitchen and skidded to a stop. "Tori, Julian! What are you doing here? I haven't seen you in ages! How is college life going? How do you like your apartment and classes and…"

"Slow down, slow down Sakura one question at a time." Julian said laughing.

Tori just looked at his little sister and at Kero hovering just below her left ear and just raised his eyebrow. Julian said, "Come have some waffles Sakura and Kero."

"Alright! Don't mind if I do!" exclaimed Kero.

" Oh, Julian said listening as if to the wind, Yue says hello too." His eyes again changed silver and his voice dropped deeper for a few seconds then he was himself again.

Sakura saw this change and filed the new piece of information into her brain to be used when she and Julian were alone. She acknowledged Yue's greeting with just a smile and put a little magic into it. Yue sensed it and sent it back to her. All this a silent exchange between very good friends, as Sakura sat down to eat. Soon Sakura left and everyone just sat and looked at each other with only the sounds of Kero scarffing down his breakfast. "Sakura has changed a lot since the last time we've seen her." Julian said looking at Tori wanting to know what had made his friend so quiet during the meal.

"Huh?" Tori said, "Oh, yeah she has." Tori again lapsed into his own little world.

Julian just shrugged and started talking to Aiden. What Julian didn't know was that Tori's thoughts were indeed on how much his little sister had changed or rather grown-up. 'She didn't have long hair when I last saw her and when did she get so beautiful? Oh man, she's probably had to beat the boys off with a stick I bet. Also she really isn't my 'little' sister anymore.' Indeed Sakura had grown several inches and now the top of her head reached Tori's shoulders. Tori sighed at what he had missed in the year and a half that he had been away. 'Well, now I'll be there for her.' He thought furiously. "Now then Julian you better tell Kero some not so good news."

When Kero heard the seriousness in Tori's voice he stopped eating, looked at Julian, then flew off the table and almost at the same time changed into his true form along with Julian. "Now what is this urgent news you need to tell me but not Sakura?" Kero said in his low, rumbling, voice.

"Because I did not want to burden her on her first day of high school." Yue said in his somberly, shadowy, voice. "What I needed to tell you Keroberous and family is that I had or rather Julian and I had a dream about a new danger and enemy that might be a thing to worry about."

"Hmmm… Kero mused, there hasn't been any trouble since Eli went back to England four years ago."

"Eli has come back because he has had the same dream too. So is someone else that is coming back as well." Yue said quietly almost to himself.

"Hmmm? What did you say? Yue is it?" (Nod) Aiden asked.

"Nothing" Yue said.

"Well everyone will keep a closer eye on Sakura for a while until we know more got it?" Tori asked everyone at the table.

They all agreed. Yue looked at Kero and said, "We should change back so that, Mr. Avalon is it? (nod) can get to work."

"Fine"

Shine shine

Julian opened his eyes and said "so? Did my other self say what needs to be said?"

"You could say that." Kero said glumly. "I'm not sure I'll be able to keep this secret from Sakura for very long though."

"Well try so as not to make her worry. If you let it slip and she worries, I'll make your life a living hell." Tori stated glaring at Kero.

Kero gulped.

"Well, I'll leave you three now." Aiden said and left.

Tori looked at Julian and said, "lets go and unpack in my room Julian." They went up the stairs heads bent. Tori explained what was going on to Julian. They started making plans as how to protect Sakura.

Kero was then left by himself. 'I wonder how Sakura is doing her first day back at school.' He suddenly had a thought. ' I wonder…' he then flew up to Sakura's room to check out his hunch.

(Well? What did you think? Hopefully you all liked it and will tell me what you think.)
