Chapter One: An Adventure Begins

Beep Beep Beep. Beep Beep Beep. An emerald eyed girl woke up to the sound of an alarm clock. However, instead of throwing it against the wall like she usually did, she opened it welcomely.

"What a great day it is today!" She got up and started to get ready for school. Once she put on her uniform and opened the door only to find a bug thrown at her and screamed.

She glared at the person laughing in front of her and picked up the rubber bug. "Touya!" The boy who was laughing finally stopped.

"Good morning Sakura. You're up early." The girl named Sakura simply huffed and stormed down the stairs.

When she got downstairs, she saw two gifts on the table next to her dad. "Happy Birthday, Sakura." She squealed for joy and hugged Fujitaka.

"Thanks Dad!"

"Wow, for a monster, you actually sound like a girl for once."

"Touya, I'm not a monster!"

This is the life of Sakura Kinomoto. Her mother died when she was three and now she lived with her older brother Touya and her father Fujitaka. Due to the fact that she grew up with only men, she is a bit tomboyish but she always has the same bubbly attitude.

Today was a special day for Sakura. It was April 1st, or in other words, her birthday. She has now turned twelve. Now as she had breakfast and opened her two gifts, Sakura had no idea what was truly in store for her.

She opened the first gift to find a pink teddy bear with a blue ribbon tied around it. Sakura hugged it close to her and smiled. "Thank you so much, Touya!" Touya just grunted in response.

Sakura then looked at the gift from her father. It was light blue with a white bow. The size of the bow was fairly. So, who knows what's in it.

Sakura was excited to find out what was the gift her dear father gave her. When she finally opened the gift, after admiring it, she was amazed of the item in the box. It was a necklace with a blue star and a black ring around it.

Sakura was at awe of the necklace. Touya then looked over to see what the gift was. He was surprised to see the necklace. Seeing Touya's expression, Fujitaka said, "It belonged to your mother. She told me, before she died, to give you that necklace when you're ready."

Sakura couldn't believe this necklace belonged to her mother. She was so overjoyed that she jumped into her father's arms and said "Arigato otou-san" with so much happiness.

"Sorry to interrupt, but Sakura if you don't hurry up you're going to be late for school…again" said Touya with a smirk of his last statement.

Sakura screamed at the realization and quickly put on the necklace. She gave her father a hug and her brother a swift kick in his shin and smiled at his pain. "Bye!" she said as she sped off.

When she reached the gate she met her cousin and best friend Tomoyo. Her long purple coloured hair flew behind her as she ran towards Sakura and gave her a tight hug.

"Happy Birthday, Sakura! I can't believe you're a year older today. They grow up so quickly." Sakura sweat dropped.

"Moyo, I'm only twelve!" Tomoyo let her go and smiled.

"I have a gift for you right hear but you won't get to try it on til you get home."

Sakura looked at her knowingly. "It's another one of your outfits, isn't it?"

Her cousin's eyes went glittery. "Ah, yes. Another one of Daidouji's designs. It'll look so cute on you!" The auburn haired girl fell anime style.

Suddenly, Tomoyo looked at her watch and gasped noticeably. "My goodness! We better get to class or we'll be late!" She grabbed Sakura by the hand and started to run causing Sakura to stumble due to the skates. Once they reached inside she exchanged her skates for shoes and walked to class

Sakura opened the door to hear party horns blown and confetti thrown in the air. "Happy Birthday, Sakura!" Emerald eyes widened in shock and the fainted.

"Um, did we over do it?" The class simply looked at Takashi.

"This party is great! Thank you guys so much." Sakura had awoken a few minutes later, more cheerful than ever. Then suddenly…

"Did you know that in the 1800s that when the poor people celebrated each others' birthday, they were so poor, they couldn't have sweet and delicious cakes? So, instead they had cakes filled with worms and bugs and…" BANG.

Chiharu, with her famous mallet, gave a swift blow to Takashi. "You and your stupid lies. Stop filling Sakura's head with your lies," Chiharu said while dragging Takashi on the other side of the room.

Sakura, as gullibly as she was, believed every word. "Umm…Tomoyo,"

"Yes, Saku?"

"Do you know if there are any worms and bugs in the cake?" asked Sakura, looking at the cake in front of her with a nerves smile.

"Don't worry, Sakura. I made this cake especially for you. So, you can guarantee that it is not filled with bugs and worms." Tomoyo said with a smile.

Sakura was excited now. Since Tomoyo made it, she knew this cake was going to be delicious. She couldn't wait to sink her teeth in one of Tomoyo's famous cakes.

School was out for the day and Tomoyo was walking with Sakura home. The emerald eyed girl was staring at the sky smiling. "Today was a great day; don't you think so, Tomoyo?"

Tomoyo looked at the auburn haired girl next to her and said, "Yea, it was. Especially since we have no homework at all for the weekend."

Sakura and Tomoyo reached Sakura's home when she went to the mailbox. "It's my turn to check the mailbox." She found a package and brought it inside.

The package caught both Sakura and Tomoyo's attention for all it had was a note attached to it for Sakura and nothing else. The note read:

To: Cherry Blossom

Everything shall be known

in due time. The pieces

shall be place together

Enjoy the gift.

Silver Moon

"I wonder who this 'Silver Moon' person is," said Tomoyo saying what Sakura was thinking. Then suddenly, the necklace, around Sakura's neck, started to glow. That was when Tomoyo realize there was a necklace around Sakura's neck.

"Where did you get that necklace, Sakura?" Tomoyo asked admirably.

"Oh, I got this from otou-san for my birthday. It belonged to my mother," Sakura said with a smile.

"But why is it glowing? Was it glowing like that before?"

"I don't know. I just got it today, I don't know if it glowed like this before," answered Sakura looking at Tomoyo.

"Do you think it is connected to the package?"

"Maybe. Let's go upstairs and open it," suggested sakura, pointing upstairs towards her room.

The two girls went to Sakura's room upstairs. "Otou-san won't be home tonight and Touya would be late so it's just us," Sakura stated.

Tomoyo nodded. "So, let's see what is inside this thing."

They opened up the package to find a special book inside. It was dark purple book with golden staff border and a strange looking lion with a set of blue wings behind it. On the creature's forehead was the star similar to the one on Sakura's necklace. The girls were filled with awe. "Do you think it's related to the necklace somehow?" Tomoyo asked.

Sakura looked at the necklace which was still glowing and back to the book. "It just might be. Let's find out."

She opened the book to see that a hole was cut in the pages to hold a deck of cards with the same design as the book's cover. Sakura picked up the first card and looked at it curiously. "Great, it's in English. I'll have to try and sound it out then."

As soon as Sakura started the necklace's glow grew stronger and Tomoyo started to get nervous.

"F-R-E-E-Z-E. Hm. I wonder what this spells." The necklace glowed even brighter and Tomoyo was now frightened.

"Um, Saku?"

Not now, Tomoyo. Free…ze. That's it! Freeze!" The minute she was done, her necklace gave a near blinding light. An icy blast of wind appeared and all of the cards were blown away in the wind.

As soon as it started, it stopped and a small creature with a blue star in it's forehead. "Ladies and gentlemen! Boys and girls! I now present the one and only…ME! Purachino!" (A/N: Let's just say we didn't know what name to give him so deal it.)

Everything went silent as the two girls stared at the creature when…

"KAWAII!" Sakura and Purachino sweat dropped at Tomoyo's outburst.

"You are so cute!" So you said your name was Purachino, ne? Hmm…So we shall call you Pla Pla-chan." Both Sakura and Purachino fell down anima style at Tomoyo's nickname. (A/N: Pla Pla is pronounced as 'play play'.)

After Sakura and Purachino, now known as Pla Pla-chan, recovered from Tomoyo's sudden outburst, Pla Pla-chan asked, "So, which one of you opened the book?"

Sakura nervously raised her hand. "I did. Am I in trouble?"

Purachino put a paw on his chin and said, "No, not really. It just now you have to seal the cards that you just released."

"You mean the cards that just flew out of the book. How does Sakura seal these cards?" asked Tomoyo looking at Purachino.

That was when Purachino noticed the necklace around Sakura's neck... "Where did you get that?" asked Purachino pointing at the necklace.

Sakura looked down at the necklace, seeing that it had stopped glowing. "Oh, my dad gave it to me as a gift. It was my mother's at first."

"Ah, I see. I wonder how she got it…anyway. You have to seal the cards but first I must make you a cardcaptor."

Sakura looked at him confused. "A cardcaptor?"

Purachino looked at her surprised. "You don't know what a cardcaptor is?" She shook her head.

"Well, the cards you released are magical cards." Sakura was shocked to here those cards, that flew out of the book was magical.

"So you mean this card hear is magic?" asked Sakura, as she showed the card that said FREEZE to Purachino.

"Yes, that's the Freeze card. It is able to freeze any target. But you have to say an incantation to use it and to seal other cards. Also you need to use a magical item."

"But where can I get a magical item? asked Sakura.

"Well, I sense a magical aura around that necklace of yours." Sakura was surprise to hear that her mother's necklace is magical.

"Something tells me that will be your sealing staff."

"You mean to seal the cards?"

The creature nodded. "Exactly! When you seal the cards, they become yours, making you a cardcaptor." Sakura and Tomoyo nodded as if they both understood. "I must make you an official cardcaptor first."

Tomoyo jumped. "So what are you waiting for, Pla Pla-chan? Get started!"

"Grr. Don't call me that!"

Meanwhile in Tomoeda's City Park, something strange was about to happen. It was peaceful afternoon there and a couple was sitting on the edge of the fountain in the center of the park. They were simply talking when water started shooting out of the fountain like a geyser and sent them flying several feet.

They immediately got up and started to run. The water then started to overflow and sweep everyone out of the park. As quickly as it came, it left. It was as if nothing had happened with the exception of the now frightened people. Something strange was happening indeed. But what did it all mean?

"Master of the Dark Clow Cards.

I ask for your strength.

On behalf of Sakura Kinomoto

I declare her cardcaptor

Unlock the magic from within

RELEASE!"

A circular symbol glowed under Sakura's feet and a gust of wind blew in the room. Her necklace glowed brightly along with the symbol on Purachino's forehead. Soon it stopped and everything returned to normal.

Purachino smiled. "And now, a new cardcaptor has been born."
