The beginning:

Sakura was in her room talking to the cards on a sunny Saturday. It as the start of her holidays and she was ecstatic of the prospect of a long holiday.

"I love the new dress" exclaimed Sakura.

Her father bought her a dress as a present for her birthday.

"I wish Syoran was here to see this" Sakura said, her face fell at the memory of Syoran leaving her.

It had been almost a year since her epic battle against Eriol and she managed to transform all the cards into her own. Yukito went away on a holiday with his friends and Touya. That left Sakura pretty much alone in the house with her father at work.

Kero jumped onto her lap and said "You still got me!! Who needs that annoying gaki anyway?" "Thanks Kero…for trying to comfort me" said Sakura. "I still wish that Syoran was here to see the dress." As if on cue Syoran appeared beside her.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" Screamed Sakura and she promptly fainted. Syoran looked confused and said "Sakura?"

Kero looked as shocked but quickly recovered and poured a glass of freezing water onto Sakura's face. Sakura stirred and sat up. "for a moment there I thought Syoran popped out of nowhere.." "I did" Syoran said. Sakura stared at Syoran and said... "Is it really you?" "Yes I'm here!! But why?? I was about to take a shower…" he then realized he was clad in nothing more then a tower round his waist. Sakura fainted again.

By the time everyone got orientated and gave Syoran clothes and informed his parents where he was, it was already lunch. Tomoyo was informed and they meet at her house. "Kero do you know why Syoran just suddenly popped out of nowhere?" asked Tomoyo. "I'm not sure but if I had to guess I would say that it would be the influence of some sort of powerful magical force to have teleported Syoran all the way here. Who did this? I don't know but our best bet would be to call Eriol."

CCS

"Hello? Sakura I was expecting you ?" Eriol said immediately asked after picking up the phone

"How did you know it was me?" Sakura asked suspiciously?

"I have my ways. Anyway I know the reason for the call. Something weird happened and You suspected something with great power caused it and you called me to find out what it could be and no I did not do it."

"If you knew why didn't you bother telling us?" said a frustrated Sakura

"Because I knew you would call. Anyway I know what's going on. The 4 cards have appeared." Eriol said mysteriously.

"4 cards? What are they? And stop using that annoying mysterious tone. Its giving me a headache" Sakura snapped

"Sorry… it's just that I'm alone in the house and suddenly Syoran pops up of nowhere wearing a bathrobe and…arghhh I'm just plain freaked out ok?" Sakura said

"Ok I understand. Anyway back to business. You know that in a deck of cards there are 52 cards right? Not including the void card which balances the power of the cards. Well I never mentioned these 4. You might call them the 'joker' cards. They were sealed because of their extreme strength and you did not have to transform them because they are what you can call 'extra' cards. They have lain dormant for years since clow died and it seems now someone has released them." Eriol said seriously.

"So what you're telling me is that some mad, sick, repulsive, retarded, brainless, hopeless idiot released cards of extreme power in the middle of Japan and now they are causing havoc AND I'M SUPPOSED TO STOP THEM!!" Sakura screamed.

"Yes… I'm afraid that you would have to stop them but don't assume that they are all in Japan. Only 1 of the cards is in Japan. The other cards are scattered in around the globe. I know where they roughly are. 1 of the cards is in Africa. Another is in the North Pole. The last is found in America. I hope you like traveling." Eriol said

Upon hearing the cards were so widely spread out, Sakura screamed and said "Where am I going to find all the money to travel that far!!!"

"You don't have to. You can use your cards. The move card would come in useful. Although it alone can only move small objects but in conjunction with other cards it can move big objects in great distance." Eriol said. "Think hard and you will know which other cards to use."

Sakura thought hard and said "The Loop and The through card"

"Very good. You figured it out. Now I will tell you more about the cards you will have to capture. They are the Life, Death, Sun and moon. The sun card is found in Japan. The sun rises in the East thus the location of it being in the east. The moon is found in America as it is in the west. As the sun sets in the west the moon rises thus the location is in the west. The life is found in Africa due to the great amount of life found there. Animals, plants. Africa has both summer and winter and supports them both. The death is found in the North Pole due to the fact that few live there and its barren and cold conditions causes death to most who dare walk its icy plains. If you noticed, they are located at opposite ends of the Earth and the places they are in are complete opposites. This is to balance the cards. These measures sound extreme but they are needed to support the extreme power of the cards." Eriol said in a grave tone.

Sakura took a while to digest the information and asked "When do I start?"

"Immediately"
