One day after school we see Max and Zoe, walking home form school, now it may have only been six mouths days sense Rex left, but there relationship has become very awkward.

Zoe rubbed he back of her neck as she tried to brake the awkward silence, "So Max's how's are things at home?"

Max rubbed the back of his neck and looked down as he answered, "not, good my mom is mad about dad not telling him about the dinosaurs tell the black T-Rex event, so they have been fighting, a lot and my dad's started drinking."

Zoe looked away sadly as she said, "Sorry I asked."

Max blushed looked at her not believing how hard it has become to talk to Zoe, the girl he's had a crush on for as long as he could remember, hell he might even be in love with her as he said, "it's ok you didn't know."

Zoe looking down and tapping her index fingers together, "anyway I have a history report do tomorrow so I'm going to the library to get a book, want to come with?"

Max rubbed the back of his right arm as he said, "sorry my parent's told me to come straight home after school Zoe."

Zoe looked at her feet and said, "Well then see you tomorrow then." Max then replied with, "See you tomorrow." The two of them then walked went their separate ways, unaware, that this would forever change their lives and bring them together at long last.

When Max got home he gasp in shock his mother and father on the floor bleeding, not knowing what happened, Max closed the door and ran away as he called the corps, with tears streamed down his face.

Meanwhile with Zoe.

We see Zoe looking at books on the library shelves, when she heard something coming form behind an old closed door. Zoe unconsciously pushed on the door making it open she then walked down the stairs into this old part of the town library, the more she walked the darker it got, so she felt for the light switch and when she found it, she saw a strange old looking book on the floor, opened.

Zoe bent over and picked up the book to see it was filled with cards, she had as strange sense of déjà vu, as she picked up the first one and read it's name "Windy" and out of no where a storm of wind shaped like a woman appeared blowing all of the other 50 cards out of the book and throw the open window and across the winds. Zoe then fell down onto her but and dropped the now glowing book as what looked like a little plushy lion with wings popped out of it, and stretched, as it said "man that was a good nap," he then looked down to see the book empty so it freaked out put it's hands on it's face and screamed "WHERE ARE THE CARDS?"

Zoe held out the windy card still in her hand, as she was screaming on the inside and the talking plush "where's the other 50?"

Back with Max.

We see Max walking in the woods as he cried, he informed the corps, and they said they where on the way to his house but he could go back he just couldn't bring himself to it, So he decided to hide tell his tears ran out, and like an omen it started to rain.

Max now broken walked into a cave to get out of the, as his tears continued to fall, making it impossible to tell the difference between his tears and the rain that fell on him.

Max sat down on the cave floor and unknowing grabbed what was a buried Katana's handle, making the blade hidden beneath the ground glow with a black light. Filled with shock Max covered his eyes as the light engulfed him.

He then heard laughter, making him look to see, a site that would scare the young broken boy, beyond any human's believe, it was a man with blood red hair he had fangs for teeth the whites of his eyes where black, he had 3 scares on each side of his face that looked like whiskers, his fingers had claws, his toes had talons, he had fox ears, and nine blood red fox tails with black tips, he wore a black samurai pants, with a black samurai style coat, with the sleeves ripped off, and in his hand was a pure black katana, and lastly you could see right throw him.

Back with Zoe we see Zoe having a silent freak out as the living winged Lion plush grabbed her shirt and started yelling, "DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT YOU'VE DONE?" Zoe simple nodded no. The plush then flow to the book and said "this book was made to hold the Clow cards, by my creator clown reed, a wizard who combined, the magic of the east and west together in each of the 51 cards, even the weakest one can destroy countries, and you've sent them, out into the world with nothing to contain or control them." Zoe gasped as she pinched her self to make sure she wasn't dreaming, and once she know this was real she asked, "So what do we do."

The plushy looked at her "what do you mean we I'm only a living detector made to tract down any cards that are lost or stolen, but seen you let them out of the book only you can put them back." Making Zoe gasp again, as the plushy asked "what is your name?" Zoe sacredly said "Zoey drake."

The plushy then cleared his throat and be came to say "key of the seal I this girl will carry out your scared promise, her name Zoe drake, I command you to bestow onto her magical powers, Zoe drake take the staff I Cerberus name Zoe drake Card captor." A glowing yellow magic ring then appeared around Zoe as the book glow blue, making in zoe's right hand appear in a flash of blue light a staff 2 foot long that was pink it's tip was shaped like a birds beck, and had a white wing on both sides of it. The ring then disappeared as the now named Cerberus said, "this is the staff of sealing it allows anyone who holds it to summon, control, and seal Clow cards, when not in use it well take the form of a charm, and well be released when you speak the release command." the wand then changed into a small key version of it's self.

The sound of what had to be a giant bird flapping its wings was then heard so the plush made Zoe sneak the book out of the library in her back pack, and head to the roof, and there in the now night sky was a giant bird made of wind.

Meanwhile the Max and the see throw man.

The man looked at Max who was trying, and the man just looked at him and said, "I am Yoko Kurama, form Demon lord, 3000 years ago, in your human's shinobi area, we demons ruled the lands, tell a young up start wizard named Clown Reed came and sealed our kind away below the earth, and me and my brothers the demon kings within our blades, and you just so happened to luck across my sword, child." He then snapped his fingers bring Max to what looked like the inside of Zeta point and he was no longer see throw, "now by the rules of living swords, I most now test you child, pass you become my new master, and gain parts of my power, as I see fit,"

Max's tears stopped as he stood up, upon hearing power, power he could use to protect everyone he holds dear tohimself, so he dried his tears and said, "If it means being able to bring back my mother and punish my bastard father, I'll play your game."

Kurama smiled as he held out his katana and said "return with vegans Yoko Kurama" his katana then transformed into a new blade, it's blade had become a doubled edged katana blade that was 4 inches wide 4 foot long, it's normal katana hand guard grow to make it's size, along with it's handle now being blood red 3 foot long and having nine peaces of blade chain connected to it, so the demon added "this is my blade's true form, this area we are in is your soul," the sword then vanished and the demon finished with, "now find my blade within one hour and draw it form where ever it may rest, and here's a hint, this all may end where it all began, and if you don't find it in the hour you will die, good luck to you." he then disappeared leaving a freaked out and panicking Max behind.

Max freaked out but realized noun of this would have happened if Dr.Z never took over Zeta point, then he snapped his fingers and ran off, to the control room it took him 55 minutes to react it but once there he saw the sword with it's blade buried in the ships controls, so Max grabbed it's handle but no matter how hard he tried he could pull it out.

Kurama appeared again laughing, out " you weak fool you came all this way, just to fail, you saved time and space, but you could save your parents, you can save yourself, and now your sure as hell can't protect Zoe the last person you have in life, you truly are nothing with out you're a your lizard by your side." Max became filled with rage, as he pulled out the sword and swung it at Kurama shocking the demon so much he was frozen as Max slashed his chest. Kurama held his bleeding chest and fell to his knees and said, "you've beaten me, a human child, who's never fight on his own a day in his live has done what no demon, half breed, or human warrior has done, before, it is with grate respect for you and even grate shame of my self that I say this but my power is yours" max's right hand then burned as a tattoo for the Japanese symbol for Fox appeared on it.

Kurama, "1/9 of my power and wisdom is now yours, prove your self worthy and I well bestow upon you another 1/9 tell all of my power and wisdom is yours, to call upon this power and to transform into a demon whip your blood across the tattoo, and say return in flames the demon king, to return to normal do the same, but say rest in your bed of flames demon king." Max then found him self back in the cave his hand still hurting as he removed his glove and looked at the tattoo. He then bite his thumb making it bleed, the pain helped prove this all really happened. Max shipped his blood over the Tattoo and with tears in his eyes he said, "Return in flames demon king" and with that Max was engulfed in black flames as he screamed in pain changing him, he was now 2 foot taller looked to be 15, he had gained Kurama's claws talons fangs ears eyes, and scares, his hair had become red with brown highlights, he now had a red fox tail that was white at the tips he's outfit looked like Kurama's but his coat still had it's long sleeves and on his hands wear fingerless black gloves, around his black samurai pants was a red sash, upon his back was a sheave, 3 foot long 3 inches wide attacked two his back by a blood red chain that raped around his chest twice forming an blood red X, and finally in his hand was Kurama's sword he placed his blade in the sheave not even thinking of how his sword could fit into a sheave to small.

Max then stepped out of the save as he cried tears of blood, and walked throw the rain, back to town to go check on Zoe.

Meanwhile with Zoey

Cerberus looking at Zoey and the bird "the release the wand, that it's charm in your hand and say 'Key of Clow, power of magic, power of light, surrender the Wand, the force ignite. Release!' and also this card is the fly card, it is under the control of windy."

Zoe held her hand the had the charm open and said "ok, Key of Clow, power of magic, power of light, surrender the Wand, the force ignite. Release!" the key then transformed into it's true wand form, and Zoe asked" now what?" as the bird made of wind flapped it's wings trying to blow Zoe Away.

Cerberus "use the windy give it an Order to hold fly still then tap the card with the wand and say release and dispel." Zoe then took out the Windy card and tapped it with the wand and said, "Windy hold fly still, release and dispel." the woman made of wind then appeared and rapped her self around, the fly card holding it still.

Cerberus, " now tap the fly card with the wand and say Return to your power confined."

Zoe then hit the fly card and said " fly card return to your power confined." the bird made of air then transformed into a card and fly into Zoe's hand as the rain stopped. Zoe then smiled and said " 2 down 49 to go."

Unknown to her Max was on a higher building looking down on her in his demon form shock he then hide in the shadows as Zoe used to fly card to give her staff wings so she could ride home witch style.

Max couldn't help but smile after all both his and Zoe's lives have both changed, forever and something told him, it would bring them together.

To be continued.
