6 Chapter 1



Tomoyo searched around in her cupboard for her video camera. She had promised to help Sakura make a film all about her Sakura cards. They were to film it in an hour, Sakura was briefing her Sakura cards at that moment and Tomoyo was searching for her video camera.

Tomoyo ran her fingers through her hair frustrated. She did not want to disappoint Sakura. She was absolutely certain she had put it in her cupboard. She lifted a pink piece of material she had bought to make a dress and found her camera there. She smiled happily and took it out.

As she started to close the cupboard door she suddenly spotted something inside which she had not seen before. Curiously, she picked it up and examined it carefully. It was a small key about the length of her fist. It was dark blue in colour with a white shape fitted on the top. Tomoyo looked closer and discovered that the shape was of two white hearts between a lemon yellow diamond.

Strange, thought Tomoyo, this doesn't belong to me, it might be mummy's.....Tomoyo was going to give it to Sonomi when she saw her digital clock and let out a cry, she was late in meeting Sakura! I'll give it to mummy afterwards thought Tomoyo to herself. She put the key carefully back into her cupboard before grabbing her video camera and rushing to Sakura's house.

Tomoyo arrived home exhausted but happy. She and Sakura had had a hard time controlling the Sakura cards but the film had turned out really well with the Windy card making a dramatic introduction.

Tomoyo went to put back her video camera in her cupboard and she saw the key and remembered that she had forgotten to give it to Sonomi. Oh mummy's already asleep I'll have to return it tomorrow. Tomoyo put the key onto her table so she would not forget about it the next day.

As she Tomoyo lay on her bed asleep, the key stirred from its position on her table. Silently, it floated into the air towards Tomoyo. It hovered just above her face for a few minutes. Suddenly it flashed and disappeared into her dreams.

Tomoyo looked around her confused. She was could not feel any solid ground under her feet so she assumed that she was floating. It was completely dark all around her and she was unable to see anything. Just then she spotted a bright light above her. It looked like a star twinkling. She reached her hand out towards it and it drifted towards her. Slowly it went, so so slowly. Tomoyo longed to make it speed up but it just floated oh so slowly towards her. Finally it was floating in front of her and she reached out cautiously. Her fist closed around it and she brought it nearer to her. She realized that she was holding the key she had found earlier on. She gasped, startled as the key slipped away from her hand and floated in front of her. It started to grow longer and longer. As it grew longer it wrapped itself around her body. Then there was a flash of light and it disappeared. The darkness had lightened a little and when Tomoyo looked down she was able to see herself. She was wearing some kind of strange costume of a dark shade of blue. The exact same shade of blue as the key in fact.

The costume looked like one she might have designed herself. It had a short pleated skirt with golden lining and her top was sleeveless with a lemon yellow sailor's collar. Around her waist was a translucent sort of belt that wound itself around Tomoyo twice. Her hair flowed down around her shoulders and she had a white and blue headband. Her feet were bare except for a pair of translucent stockings.

Tomoyo opened her eyes as she woke up. The dream was still vivid in her mind. She looked at her glow-in-the-dark clock, it was 4:00a.m. Tomoyo realized she was holding something in her hand. It was the key! Tomoyo got out of bed and turned on her light. She held out the key in front of her. She was unsure if she was dreaming or awake. The key floated in front of her and grew longer just like in her dream. Only this time it was much faster and in 10 seconds Tomoyo stood wearing that strange costume again. She ran over to the mirror and examined herself carefully. The she realized she could not run. She was floating towards the mirror! Her feet were suspended about 5 inches of the floor. Then she discovered she could fly! She flew up to her ceiling and around her room enjoying the sensation of freedom.

Soon she calmed down and got back on the ground. It was 5:00a.m already. She willed herself to change back and she did quick as a flash. She ran over to her phone and dialed Sakura's number. Luckily Sakura answered though she was still very sleepy.

"Sakura?" said Tomoyo, "Do you think you could come over to my house as soon as possible?"

"Tomoyo, of course I can if you really want me to, luckily its holiday now so there's no school later. I'm coming now." Sakura put down the phone feeling puzzled. Her best friend had seemed excited about something. She pulled on a T-shirt and skirt and sneaked out of the house. She ran to Tomoyo's house where Tomoyo was waiting for her."

"Tomoyo what's the problem?" asked Sakura, surprised to find her friend so excited. Tomoyo demonstrated what had happened just know with the key.

"Oh Tomoyo!" gasped Sakura, shocked, "Do you...do you...???" she was unable to complete her question but Tomoyo knew what she meant.

"Yes Sakura! I think...I have some kind of magical power!" Tomoyo answered.
