In one unknown part of the world, where all kinds of magicians have only live, hiding away from normal humans and animal alike. The town is quite large, split in between levels of magic from creating guardians to a simple spell of making teas. For the tale would be first start from the most powerful sorcerer, we had all known him as...

...Clow Reed...

With a heavy sighed, Clow adjusts his glasses as he slumped onto his chair, looking at the card he had finished today.

...Bubble Card...

"Maybe this card would give Keroberos a good bath for once," Clow mumbles, waving his hand as the card silently flown over to the glowing red open book, joining in with the others before it closes tightly, automatically gone to the bookshelf. "A few more then I'm done..."

He looked up once hearing soft knocking from outside before it opens, revealing his new butterfly guardian he had just created. With a gentle smile from her red lips, looking at her master with deep rubies eyes as she bowed, having her long red hair falling over her shoulders, looking down at the tray with a cup of tea and some biscuits. "I made this for you, Clow-sama."

"That's quite generous of you, Ruby Moon," Clow said with a smile.

Ruby Moon nodded, walking up to him as she puts the tray on his table. "It's...my first time that I have done this in the kitchen. I wanted you to tell me how it tastes like in your opinion."

"Fine," He chuckled, grabbing one of the biscuits as Ruby Moon looked at him patiently. He took a fairly large bite, hearing loud crunches inside his mouth as he did so.

*STUN* Silences...

"It's...quite sweet," Clow managed to say with a forced smile, swallowing it with some difficulties. "It has a little too much sugar, I have to say."

"I should have listened to Keroberos by not putting the whole pack of sugar into the dough," Ruby Moon said with a pout, crossing her arms over her chest.

He sweat-dropped.

"I'm sorry, I'll do my best on the next try," Ruby Moon murmured with a bow before bouncing back outside. Hearing a soft 'click' as the door closed, Clow immediately dived for the tea. Swallowing a gulp, he somehow choked and began to cough, putting the cup back on the tray, looking a bit green.

"Too...sour..."



~*~*~*~*~



"So...what did he say?" Keroberos asked with a smirk on his lion face when seeing Ruby Moon's arrival.

She scowled, "Too much sugar..."

"Ha! I knew he'll say that!" Keroberos said with a laugh, shaking his head as he looked at the large tray of leftover biscuits. "Now what are we going to do with these? You made too many!"

"Can you blame it on me who is just enjoying the meaning of life here," Ruby Moon said with a frown.

"Why don't you just cool off by taking a walk toward the market? Since you used most of our food for practices, we're almost out of them and supplies."

She turned around, facing her back toward him, "I'm a warrior...not a maid nor a servant of yours."

"Then I'll go," A voice said behind them while they both blinked.

"Clow-sama?" They chorus in surprised.

"I needed some fresh air anyways," Clow said, sensing another presence in the kitchen as he turned around, meeting a pale white angel. "You will keep this place in order for me, Yue."

"Yes, Clow-sama," Yue said in a monotone voice as he bowed before Clow walked away.

Ruby Moon held back the urged to rolled her eyes at his tone. "Really, Yue. Do you always have to be so serious in everything?"

"That is not any of your concern, Ruby Moon," Yue replied in the same tone, looking at her calmly.

She glared, "I think it would be YOU that needs to be in the outside world more often!"

"Hey now, don't even start," Keroberos said with a sigh, before looking at the biscuits. "So...about those..."

Ruby Moon smiled, "You can eat them! I heard you like sweets and everything, even if you don't really need food at all."

He sweat-drop nervously, "Sorry, but I'll pass."

"What about Yue? He never tastes any of my cooking before," Ruby Moon suggested, turning around, "So how about...it...?" She trails off, looking at the empty spot where Yue has once stood, "Where did he go?"

"Gone, and for a good reason at that," Keroberos grumbles, before his eyes widen with an idea. He took the plate of biscuits by the mouth as an evil smirk crawls on his lips when he's out of the door. Ruby Moon raised a thin eyebrow in confusion before she grins when hearing his voice. "Oh SUPPI-CHANNN!"



~*~*~*~*~



Walking toward the town garden for a walk, after he has done ordering the things he wanted, Clow looked around at the flowers naturally with a smile always on his face. Hearing a distant sound, Clow suddenly stopped as he listened to the voice as if someone was...

...singing?

He blinked, closing his eyes in concentration before he teleported toward where the voice would be. Stopping at a few feet away, his eyes widen in surprised at the site that greets him, froze solidly at his steps under his black robes.

Standing before him was a young lady he has never seen, dressing in a flowing amethyst/black Chinese tradition clothing that hugs every curve in her body, thick dark-purple ribbons tied from around her waist that flows around with her curly violet hair like waves that flow behind as if in water from either magic or the wind, he can't really tell. Her eyes were both closed, singing in a tone so softly and merrily from the song.

Clow Reeds, for once in his life, was left speechless...

He looked at her with no expression after she stopped as she turned around to face him, finally opening her eyes that show the color of deep violet. She smiled, "It was a pleasure meeting you here in the most unexpected place, Clow-sama..."

Clow finally gets control over his legs as he walked up to her and held her delicate hand to his lips, a bit surprised that she doesn't show any sign of embarrassment or even nervous by his action. He smiled warmly, "Would you please give me the honor of knowing your name?"

"Xia..." She whispered, closing her eyes as she bowed politely. Clow was then immediately enchanted by her beauty and mind as the glories sunset shines behind her, making her glow like a goddess. "Qian Xia..."

You do not know how LONG it had taken me to find a good Chinese name for her. Those of you who already know who she is in this story, well good for you! If not...then wait until the end I guess. Qian is a really popular last name, beside Li of course. And Xia means 'Glow of the Sunrise/Sunset' and it matches perfectly for her. Others with beautiful meanings have very weird names so I'll stick with this. R/R PLEASE! ONEGAI! The more the better, so I can continue this faster ne?
