"A haunted house?" Sakura asked curiously.

Her innocent eyes of green turned into eyes of shock, and wonder. Swishing her schoolbag in her hand like she did not seem scared, she kept on wondering about the haunted house. A ghost came into mind, and Sakura shivered from head to toes. Tomoyo giggled, and smiled at her friend's reaction. To Tomoyo, Sakura was the fire to her wood, and kept her going.

"They say once you go in there, a ghost follows you for eternity. Not to mention that it goes beyond walls, doors, or anything. Isn't that amazing?" Tomoyo asked, then smiled.

Sakura's face turned pale. Her thoughts of going into the house... She ponders around the living room, into the kitchen. Then hears a mysterious cry, Sakura whipped around, and sees a ghost. Sakura screams her usual hoe, and runs. The front door is locked, the ghost coming nearer. Sakura runs and faces a dead end, and then the ghost comes nearer and nearer…

WHAM!

Sakura slammed right into a tree. Tomoyo asked if she was unharmed of splinters, or needed to go to the nurse. Sakura just explained of daydreaming. After Tomoyo did many deductions of what she was thinking about, she just concluded that she was scared of a house. That Sakura thought was completely cursed by a ghost. It slightly amused the black-haired girl, and as they both sat down in their rightful seats in school, Tomoyo kept telling Sakura about many rumors about the house.

"Yamazaki told me everything about it." Tomoyo explained.

"Did I hear my name?" Yamazaki piped into the conversation.

"Oh, Yamazaki good morning. Can you tell Sakura about the other stories about the haunted house?"

"Oh yes, there once lived a woman who loved listening to people sing there. She was almost forced to marry many grooms, but denied them all. It was because the grooms could not sing to her standard. Her family got really mad. They told her she was getting old, and should find someone to marry soon." Yamazaki started with his index finger in the air, making him strike a pose of an elder telling their life's story.

"What happened?" Sakura inquired, with a naïve look on her face, "Did she get married?"

"Well, in a way. You see there was this man locked in a shed that everyone hated. He had the most beautiful singing voice. That woman would spend most of her leisure time listening to him. But never dared to speak to him, for you see, he had the most ugly face in town. Everyone was ashamed to see him in that state. But the woman did not care. She tried everything to be with him, but legend says…. That she somehow went into the shed with the ever-lasting love for the man." Yamazaki held a puzzling look, with his hand on his chin.

Chiharu Mihara soon barged up to Takashi Yamazaki, and pulled him by the ear back to his seat. Yamazaki simply winced an ouch. While Mihara was lecturing him about how he should not be telling legends that are lies. But then Yamazaki retorted that legends could be anything, it could mean that pig could fly. But Mihara was really irritated that she left a noticeable mark on Yamazaki's face. Then Mihara forced Sasaki and Yanagisawa to come with her to the bathroom. The three left the classroom, Mihara leaving a last angry look at Yamazaki.

The door slammed open, and Syaoran and Meiling walked in. Since Mihara was not really in the classroom and could not yell at him telling lies. Yamazaki told Syaoran about the haunted house. Immediately Syaoran knew it was a CLOW CARD. Meiling kept daydreaming in her thoughts…

Her and Syaoran going into the haunted house. A ghost comes and surprises them both. Syaoran gets a frightened and clings onto Meiling. Meiling, letting go of Syaoran, says not to worry. Then beats up the ghost in one single kick. Syaoran admires her with heart eyes, while Meiling boasts over herself. Then they go into an embrace, and their lips come nearer…

"Meiling Li?" Kaho Mizuki asked, waving her hand in front of her. Hoping that she would come back down to earth.

"Hm?" Meiling then lost her trains of thoughts of her imaginary kiss, "AHH!!!"

She stood straight up, and then looked around. Mizuki repeated Meiling Li again. Meiling replied with a here, and sat down embarrassed. Mizuki smiled, and walked backed back to his podium, and continued with attendance. After a long day of school, the children scrambled out of class. The day was more boring than it could have been, and they have to go tomorrow.

"Sakura." Tomoyo said, handing her notes of math.

"Thanks Tomoyo. I really don't get those equations…" Sakura sighed, "If there is anything I could do as a return favor…"

"I got the perfect one," Tomoyo smiled, "We are going to the haunted house, and you are going to wear the most perfect outfit I'll give to you tomorrow. Not to mention the cutest video recording!"

"Okay…" Sakura said dazed from school, then wondered what she just agreed to, "Wait what?"

"Tomorrow we are going to the haunted house. And you are going to wear the most cutest outfit and recording of you wearing it!" Tomoyo said again, but just day dreaming what Sakura's outfit could be.

"HOE!" Sakura yiped.

(Li household… like around 8)

Syaoran stopped writing and looked out his window. He felt a presence of a CLOW CARD. Quickly he took out the lazin board, and said aloud an incantation,

"Imperial king of gods, your divinity watches over the four corners. Metal, wood, water, fire, earth,
thunder, wind, lightning, whirling blade of light, I summon thee!"

The middle of the lazin board flashed with a ball of light, and then sent a stream of light in a direction out of the window. Syaoran walked to his window. The door slammed opened, and Meiling was there looking like she ran a race. She barged right up to Syaoran and stared at him really intensely.

"You were going to go to a CLOW CARD without me?" Meiling exclaimed.

"No, I just figured out that there was one activated!" Syaoran retorted, "I guess you are going to come so hurry."

(Kinomoto household, same time.)

Sakura felt a presence of a Clow Card, and stood up from her chair in her room. Keroberous, who was ravenous eating all the pastries that Sakura brought for her, looked confusing up at her. Then he realized what Sakura was mentally talking about. Sakura quickly called Tomoyo on her house phone, explained how a card was activated, and dash back in her room. Toya asked what was the monster up to, and Sakura just stomped on his foot for a response. Then Sakura took out her key, and said an incantation aloud,

"The key, which hides powers of the dark. Show your true powers before me. I, Sakura, command you under our contract. RELEASE!"

The key grew longer and bigger, after the growth, Sakura grabbed it. Then did a couple of spins with the wand. Sakura then took out THE MIRROR. After saying an incantation, a clone of Sakura appeared where the card was. THE MIRROR greeted with a smile, and Sakura explained just to stay here and look like doing homework. THE MIRROR nodded, and then Sakura climbed out of the window, said an incantation for THE FLY, and flew off with Keroberous.

After flying for a few minutes, they landed at Tomoyo's window. Tomoyo opened the window, and they were gladly invited. Sakura was dragged to Tomoyo's clothing's and was put on a lovely outfit. It consists of a light pink dress with frills at the end of the sleeves. The front of the dress was up to Sakura's knees, and the back was up to her foot. There was a big red heart woven on the chest part, and the hat was just like their schools hat, but only pink, with the rim red. Knee-high red socks and white shoes were there too.

"Wow Tomoyo, you really outdid yourself this time!" Was Keroberous response to the lovely outfit.

"Thank you." Tomoyo smiled, and then took out her camcorder, "Now Sakura if you would just pose a little."

"Um, Tomoyo, there is a CLOW CARD…" Sakura tried to explain.

"Oh the main recordings are all about the captures!" Tomoyo put her hands on her own cheeks, "How could I ever miss Sakura capture the cards in such a beautiful matter?"

"Well, let's hurry! The kid and brat might have beaten us to it!" Keroberous sounded competitive.

Sakura climbed out the window and did the incantation for THE FLY again, and helped her best friend on the wand. They all flew to where the presence was coming from.

"Oh Sakura, that is the haunted house I was telling you about." Tomoyo said.

"HOE? That was the haunted house with the ghost?" Sakura inquired, looking scared.

"Sakura, you are a card captor, nothing can scare you!" Keroberous encouraged by imitating a left hook.

"So you guys finally decided to come." Meiling walked to them with a sneer smirk.

"Back off brat!" Keroberous retorted.

"What was that plush toy!" Meiling screamed.

Syaoran in the background was rubbing his temples. Every time he tried to get a CLOW CARD there had to be a fight with Keroberous. Then a chill went through Sakura and Syaoran spines. They both looked at the house. It was rickety, and looked like it hasn't been repaired since ever. The tops of the windows were thin, and the bottoms were thick. The door opened and closed when the wind blew hard enough. In a nutshell, it was a really good Halloween house to go trick or treating.

"Come on, let's go." Syaoran commanded, walking towards the creepy house.

"Coming Syaoran." Meiling cooed, running after him.

Tomoyo, Sakura, and Keroberous looked at each other and nodded. They all walked into the house, and there was a chill going through everyone's spine. Spider webs in every corner, broken items randomly, and dust everywhere. Sakura, Keroberous, Syaoran saw a transparent person poke her head out from a painting, and then dig her head back.

"HOE!" Sakura screamed, grabbing Tomoyo as a shield.

Syaoran gripped his sword more firm, and walked up to the painting. The card wasn't there. Keroberous flew over and patted the painted. Then Syaoran finally said something,

"Remember how Yamazaki was telling us the legend of that lady that liked the guy singing?"

Sakura nodded, and took out THE SONG. Saying the incantation, THE SONG started to sing for a few minutes, but nothing really happened. The unknown card to them was not appearing.

"So Yamazaki's legend really was a lie." Tomoyo whispered.

"Yeah, too bad it couldn't get the card." Keroberous folded his paws and pouted.

"Which card is it?" Sakura asked.

"Judging how it just appeared and vanished…" Keroberous posed a thinking face, "THE THROUGH."

"That means it can go through things like walls right?" Meiling inquired. Since she practically failed English translation's class.

Syaoran took a moment to translate it, and then nodded. Meiling had a confused face, and put her index finger in the air.

"So how are we going to catch this?"

"Oh so you don't know how to catch it brat?" Keroberous boasted his chest, with a smirk of satisfaction on his face, "Well, using THE LOOP is the best way. THE THROUGH cannot penetrate THE LOOP 's space continuum. But true fully I would use THE LOCK and corner it in a room, but since you don't have it… you have no other choice."

Sakura nodded, it seemed to be the best strategy, and snatched out THE LOOP. Then said aloud an incantation. The whole mansion was looped. (And I don't mean it as a pun). Quickly Sakura and Syaoran saw THE THROUGH, Sakura quickly was about to seal it back to a card, but it vanished and reappeared again. Whenever it tried to run away it popped up in a new place. Syaoran gritted his teeth, either they were going to play 'Whack-A-Mole' all night, or get the card. Then Syaoran got it, and took out a card of his own and said aloud an incantation,

"TIME stop THROUGH from moving!"

THE THROUGH froze as it's head was emerging from the wall. Sakura quickly dashed to the wall and said the sealing words,

"Return to the guise that you were meant to be in." Sakura raised her wand, "CLOW CARD!"

THE THROUGH disbursed and formed a card. Sakura gave thanks to Syaoran but he blushed, and didn't say anything. Keroberous flew over to a quill and dipped it with ink that was nearby. Then gave it to Sakura, whom wrote her name on it.

"THROUGH." Sakura said aloud, then smiled at her accomplishment.

Next time: Sakura, Toya, and friends go to the ocean for the absolute spring vacation. A peaceful ocean, which no danger, scientifically, could happen. But tidal waves are very frequent for the last 3 days. Then Sakura and her friends go figure out what is wrong

Author (esses) Notes: If you have any suggestion how I should do the other cards feel free. I'll try to update next week… so you'll have time to say any ideas.
