Hello! I hope you enjoy this fan fiction. Just to remind you all, it's slight AU and there will be S+S, and maybe some E+T, if I can figure out how to get Eriol into this story. Enjoy!
~~~~~~~~~~~~Chapter One: Sakura and the Second Book of Clow~~~~~~~~~~~~
'What's going on here?' thought Sakura Kinomoto. 'Is this a dream?' In her dream, there was only a blue book, with a girl about her age on the cover. Sakura felt a chill as she read the books title-The Clow. 'How could this be! I captured all the cards already didn't I?' She looked at the book, and saw that it was opening. Blue-backed cards flew out and disappeared. The cover of the book started to glow, and all of a sudden, the girl came out from the cover. She had chocolate-colored hair and amber eyes. 'Just like Syaoran's.' She realized. The girl's outfit was strange. She wore a blue cap, similar to Syaoran's only it had silver details and cream-colored stones on the sides. Her out fit was almost identical to Syaoran's as well. Except that hers was blue where his was green, silver where his was yellow and light purple where his was orange. She even had the same black and white symbol on the front. She was staring at Sakura. 'Who are you?' said Sakura in her dream. And then, it was over, and Sakura was treated to both her alarm clock going off and Kero yelling at her to wake up. She yelled and jumped out of bed, not giving the dream another thought.
**At school**
Sakura sighed. She hated geometry. But then again, there was a very good reason she had signed up for this class. Syaoran. They had agreed to call each other by their first names a while ago. Plus, it was the only class where neither Tomoyo could video tape them or where Meilin could make a fuss. Not like there was any thing to tape or fuss about. Sakura liked their friendship far too much to risk losing him just in case they didn't get along as a couple. And she didn't even know if he liked her back. Oh well. Toya wouldn't let him within three feet of her anyways. She looked at him and blushed, oh so slightly. And then she remembered her dream.
Syaoran Li was paying attention to the class, but then he looked over at Sakura. She was so exquisite, like the flower she was named for. He looked a bit more, then turned back to the teacher, thinking about how he wished that she would be his for all of time. But she didn't love him, he was sure. How could she love him after all? She always treated him like a friend and nothing more. He sighed and returned his attention to the teacher. Just then, Sakura sent him a note. It read: (Syaoran, I had a very weird prophecy dream last night. Please meet Tomoyo and I at our usual spot. - Sakura). She was watching him, waiting for his reply. He nodded, and was presented with a small smile from Sakura.
**At Lunch Time**
Sakura sat down underneath a sakura tree with Tomoyo. She hoped that Syaoran remembered that this was hers and Tomoyo's usual spot. Sure enough, there he was, with Meilin in tow. She smiled and waved. He nodded and he and Meilin walked over and sat down. "So Sakura-chan, are you going to tell us your dream now?" asked Tomoyo. "Hai, Tomoyo-chan. In my dream I saw a blue book with a girl about my age on the cover. I couldn't see the title of the book at first, but then I was able to read the title." She paused for a minute to take a breath, and continued. "The book was called The Clow. And then, it opened. All of these blue-backed Clow Cards flew out and then the girl came out of the cover, like Kero-chan did. She had dark brown hair, like yours Syaoran and amber eyes. She had on a battle outfit from the Li clan too. Except hers were light blue, silver and light purple. Do you know her Syaoran? And I thought that we had captured all the Clow Cards already? Syaoran?" She had said his name because he was staring off into space. Meilin was too. And then Meilin started laughing. "Ohhhh Kinomoto, are you ever screwed! That was Ceres, and she's an omen of death! Did you look her in the eye Kinomoto? Because if you did, kiss this world good-bye!" And then she laughed some more. "Oh no! Li-kun is that true?" said a very upset Tomoyo. "Hai." Was all he could say back. "Oh no! Sakura-chan!" and Tomoyo started hugging Sakura and crying. Meilin was smirking, and then, seeing Sakura's terrified face, she stopped smirking and asked the dumbest question of all time: "You are joking, right Kinomoto?" "No." was Sakura's terrified answer. Just then, Syaoran sighed. "Meilin, you know that looking Ceres in the eye won't kill you. It improves your chances of, but you only die if you speak to her. Did you speak at all during the vision?" Sakura only nodded. "SAKURA-CHAN!" yelled Tomoyo, hugging Sakura tighter. Just then, a shadow fell on the group. "Hello Sakura, Syaoran. How is my favorite card-capturing duo?" said a cheerful Kaho Mitzuki, who had often helped the duo while they were capturing cards. "I thought that you all would be happy, seeing as you've captured all the cards." Syaoran gave her a look and then said, "Sakura had a prophetic dream last night. She saw a second Book of Clow, with Ceres on the front. The cards in that book were released, and Ceres came out and presented herself to Sakura. And yes, Sakura did talk in the dream." Mitzuki-sensei thought that over and said, "What did you say to her Sakura? Ceres has her moods. Did you insult her or were you kind or were you just clueless?" "I just asked her who she was." Sakura said haltingly. "Well, cheer up. I doubt that she's going to kill you. If you had freaked out and started babbling about death, she would have killed you already. She dislikes being called an ill omen. If you see her, just treat her like you would any normal person. All right?" every one just nodded, and Tomoyo hugged Sakura very, very, hard.
**Sakura, Tomoyo, Syaoran and Meilin are walking home after school**
"So what will we do if we run into Ceres, Syaoran?" whimpered Meilin. "Like Mitzuki-sensei said, Meilin. We just treat her like a normal person." Said a very exasperated Syaoran. Meilin just nodded. All of a sudden, one of their classmates ran across the road, sobbing. She then ran down the sidewalk and into Syaoran. "I'm sorry!" she said in between sobs. The hair on the back of Sakura's neck stood up. She was sensing a Clow Card from her classmate, Kasumi! "Syaoran. I'm sensing a Clow Card from her." She whispered. He nodded and grabbed Kasumi. She was too busy sobbing to care.
"The key which hides the power of the dark
Show your true form before me!
I, Sakura command you under our contract!
Release!"
Her staff came out. It was a bird-headed thing with pink and gold and white. "Clow Card! Show yourself!" she shouted. Instantly, Kasumi collapsed and the Clow Card showed it's true form. It was a woman, with a sad face and dressed in a simple gown. The dress was blue and the woman was a darker blue. "Hoe? This card looks almost sad." Sakura said. The card made no move to attack; it just stood there and cried.
"Clow Card!
Return to the shape you were meant to be in!
Sad Card!"
Nothing happened. And then, they heard laughing. "So this is the famed Cardcaptor Sakura and her posse. My, my, well Sakura, you're not going to catch any of these new Cards with that." Syaoran detected movement. Before anyone could react, he did a flying kick towards what ever was moving. He managed to hit . . . Ceres! He pulled back, staring. Meilin started to whine, but stopped herself in time. Ceres was looking at him with narrowed eyes. "Syaoran Li. My goodness, you are protective of your little cherry blossom, aren't you, little wolf? I like that anyone else from your clan would have been asking for forgiveness and not to be killed. Poor things." She was regarding him and then she turned to Sakura and she . . .
