Warnings: Shonen ai and Shojo ai. And some violence, but nothing too bad!
Under the Cloak of Night
Prologue:
Two armies faced each other, black and white wings distinguishing them. Angels and Demons.
Once again, a fight was starting. The leader of the Demons raised his staff, to make the first move.
Hiiragizawa Eriol, grey eyes flashing, shouted a spell, aimed for the Angels leader, Daidoji Tomoyo.
She raised a shield, negating his attack. Now the real fighting began.
One of the few boy warriors of the Angels darted by Eriol, to slash at a brown haired boy's wing. He stopped. The wings were feathered, not like the bat wings most male demon's had. This was no girl either; girls and animals had black butterfly wings. This was a half-breed.
Yamazaki smirked. Half-breeds were rare. It would be an honor to kill one. He focused his energy in his hands, aiming at the spot between the half-breeds wing blades.
"Yamazaki-chan!" Chiharu screamed. A moment later, Yamazaki found out why. Something sharp slashed his arm. Blood welled up from the cut, seeping over the black haired boy's sleeve. He clutched his arm and flew up, to hover over in the air over the Demons.
Eriol had struck him with one of the spikes on his staff. The magician was now standing protectively in front of the half-breed.
"No one hurts my little wolf." He growled. Syaoran stared over Eriol's shoulder at his attacker. Yamazaki had hidden his aura well. Syaoran hadn't felt it.
"Arigatou, Eriol-chan," Syaoran breathed. Eriol lovingly stroked the other's cheek, while slightly nodding to Ruby Moon.
Ruby Moon grinned, forming the lethal red crystals in her hand. No one hurt Eriol-sama's koibito and got away with it!
Yamazaki screamed, a crystal ripping through his wing. He fell, flapping futile with his good wing, when someone caught him. He could feel the blaze of Yue's energy as the other flew him back to Angel grounds.
Ruby Moon laughed, her aim had been perfect! She knew her next job. She would find this Tomoyo's weakness. And she would use it to their advantage.
Syaoran used the teleporting technique Eriol had taught him to appear over one of the Angel's heads. The girl looked up, and screamed. 'K'so,' he thought. Why hadn't he remembered to hide his aura?
He drew his sword, slashing, but the girl dodged it, barely.
Sakura flew over to where she had heard Rika shriek. She landed and drew her staff, ready to injure Syaoran, if not kill.
Syaoran-chan, she can repel physical attacks, and your magic's not as strong as hers! Eriol's voice rang threw the little wolf's head, Teleport, now! Syaoran obeyed, appearing infront of another girl, when someone grabbed him from behind, clamping a hand over his mouth and laying a dagger across his neck.
Tomoyo smiled down at her captive. This one was very important to Hiiragizawa-san, she'd been watching. She knew the look the Demon leader had had on his face. She had the same look on when Sakura-chan was around. If she had the Demon leader's koi, victory for the angels was assured.
Eriol stared nervously at the Angels. Syaoran's attacks were quick, he should have been back by now! What was taking so long? Was he hurt?
Tomoyo quickly moved through the Angels, dragging her captive along.
"Eriol-chan will get you!" He hissed, "Just you wait!"
"He won't make a move if he wants you in one piece!" She giggled, " What's your name anyway, half-breed?" She asked, genuinly curious.
" Li Syaoran."
Eriol whipped around, feeling Syaoran's approaching aura. There was Daidoji, and she was holding Syaoran! Eriol's knees felt weak. He knew what had to be done. "We'll surrender!" He cried, "Just give Syaoran back to us and we'll surrender, we'll do whatever you ask!"
Tomoyo smiled, finally, a victory over the Demons! The God's were truly on their side tonight!
"Master, there is no need to surrender!" Ruby Moon's voice rang out. She had a prisoner of her own. Kinomoto Sakura. This was Tomoyo's weakness, of that, the guardian was sure.
'Oh no!' Tomoyo thought, 'They've got Sakura…what if they hurt her?'
Syaoran inwardly grinned. Ruby-san had really struck gold this time! He mentally took back all the times he'd called Nakuru a baka. Tomoyo's dagger slid closer to his throat.
Eriol relaxed slightly. The Angels no longer had the upper hand.
"Give us Syaoran, and Kinomoto-san goes free." He stated. Tomoyo nodded, dropping Syaoran.
Eriol darted over and scooped the smaller boy up.
Ruby Moon flew over and released Sakura as soon as Eriol had made sure Syaoran was okay.
The little wolf was shaking.
"Shh…" Eriol whispered soothingly, wrapping the amber-eyed boy in his overcoat and hugging him close, " It's alright now." Eriol flew away, carrying Syaoran, and motioning for his warriors to do the same.
The fighting was over. For the night, anyway.
