"Hi guys!" Tomoyo grinned at the three in front of her. It had been a
long time since the four of them had gotten together in this manner: her
best friend; Kero her ever faithful guardian and Syaoran another friend.
Syaoran sat opposite the emerald-eyed beauty that had dominated his thoughts for the past six years. Sakura remained, as always, blissfully unaware of his growing infatuation. It was part of her appeal. She simply smiled when she caught her friend's gaze. It was a wonder to the young sorcerer that she, the object of his little obsession, that such a sweet and gentle exterior was the shell for a tremendous magical power which could potentially become a destructive and deadly force.
However he was soon pulled out of his thoughts with a violent smack to the head courteous of Kero, the single most annoying being he had ever met. "Are you gonna keep that geeky look on your face all day brat?" A yellow countenance shouted in his face.
"If it bothers you then I will!" Syaoran replied, grabbing hold of Kero's foot and shaking the guardian aggressively. Some things would never change and despite everyone's best efforts this long-standing feud was one thing that would remain between them forever.
"Sooo...." Tomoyo turned to her best friend so the two girls could ignore the squabbling. "What do you think-" The teenager was interrupted by the sight of Kero finally getting fed up enough with Syaoran and pouncing on him as Keroberos. The sorcerer was powerless against the stronger side of Sakura's guardian.
With a sigh Sakura turned her attentions away from her friend, "Keroberos would you please get off Syaoran and let him breathe?" she said trying not giggle at the sight of someone so powerful looking so helpless under Keroberos.
Keroberos grinned as he realized that he had won over his rival and turned back into his much less intimidating form. Syaoran sat catching his breath whilst glaring at the yellow creature that caused him so much grief.
"Carry on Tomoyo." Syaoran hissed through gritted teeth, trying as hard as possible not to launch an all out magical offensive against the obnoxious animal.
Tomoyo and Sakura exchanged amused glances before she continued, "I was just going to ask whether or not we expect suspect that this," she emphasised her remark with a accentuated jab at a newspaper article which had been laid out in the middle of them, "might be true, you know, magic related?"
The piece of writing in question had the headline "Witchcraft takes hold over unsuspecting town!" and referred to a series of mysterious events happening in a small town in southern China.
"Come on, it's probably just a hoax. If we were supposed to do anything then fate would have intervened." Kero said dismissing the paper and returning to thoughts about pudding.
"But Kero I've had these powers for a long time now, don't you think I should be using them to help people?" Sakura asked, she was concerned because the reports already told that two people had already been hospitalised.
"You're not responsible for the world's problems." Syaoran stated remembering how guilty his friend got whenever some disaster hit the world.
"If it is magic related surely she can help though," Tomoyo said, backing her friend like Sakura knew she always would.
"I'm going to go." The Mistress of the Cards declared, she was now set on the idea. "I mean; I have a couple of months before my final year at college begins, and I won't need Yue to come, although I could use your support." She said trying to win her friends over, giving them a look, which could melt the coldest of hearts.
"How do we get there?" Syaoran asked, obviously having been won over, but staying as practical as ever.
"That's where I come in! Except for the costume design and the official camera work!" Tomoyo's purple eyes glittered with joy. "Leave the planning to me." She said with a grin that seemed to suggest something cunning to Sakura and Syaoran making them both apprehensive about exactly what her plans were.
This is my first fanfic, I know this chapter is a bit boring, but its just setting the scene ( Please review, good or bad!!!
