Hi everybody it's been a long time since I've posted anything. This is my first Card Captors fan fic but for those of you who read Inuyasha fics as well you know I'm not so hot at finishing them. Don't worry though this story has been prewritten from start to finish so I won't leave everyone hanging. I'll eventually finish my other two but don't get your hopes up on them.

I do not now nor have I ever owned Card Captors but I do own this story line so please don't rip it off.

Of War & Prophesy

Prologue

In ancient history the forces of light and dark were locked in a continuous war for dominance. For centuries the conflict raged on broken by short lived periods of restless control by on side or the other, but rebellion soon renewed the turmoil. This continued until the people of light and darkness, weary from war, finally formed a truce.

The truce lasted for many years with those of darkness keeping to their cities and the light to their hidden villages in the forests. This arrangement worked for a long time but it was unstable for light and dark were not in harmony.

Each nation had a prophesy that foretold peace, but they did not match. The only point that was agreed upon was that a great evil would hurl the land back into war before peace would truly come.

The Dark Prophesy

Darkness cannot exist without light for it casts the shadow in which we flourish. We need light as much as night needs day. A time will come when the evil will become too strong for darkness to smother and night's children will seek the day for shelter and alliance. In this alliance the Prince of Night shall meet a warrior of light with a strength to match his own. Fighting side by side will forge a bond stronger than steel and together they will heal the rift between the nations.

Prophesy of Light

Light has always been considered pure and good while darkness appears tainted, but both are necessary for peace and balance, and neither is purely good or evil. One day a group of power hungry beings will spring from darkness' womb shattering the fragile peace. In the middle of this conflict love will blossom between the Lady of Light and the Shadow Wolf. Their love for one another will create true harmony between our nations and the combined strength will force the evil back and give the world true peace.

Both prophesies were met with utter confusion. Who ever heard of a simple friendship forging true peace? A love was more probable but their hadn't been a Lady of Light in centuries and no one had ever heard of a Shadow Wolf. The prophesies were soon reduced to jokes among the people and they thought the war they spoke of would never come. But come it did!

Just as foretold in the prophesy of light some creatures of darkness became power hungry. They sought not only to rule the light but their own kind as well. They were many and strong and soon able to rise up against the Dark King and Queen. And so the world was thrown into a new war and the rebels soon came to be known not as darkness but as evil.

The war continues still between those of night and their evil counter parts. The children of light remain in their hidden cities, for it is not their fight. They wait in silence and prepare for the day when they must join the fray for the prophesies are coming true, and they must be appeased.

AN: so how do you like it so far? This story was in my mind for weeks before I finally started writing it and then it took about a month to finish, then several months to get the drive to type it up. I'd like to give a special shout out to my beta reader Yum because without her encouragement and the fact that I had to finish the story before she went insane with curiosity then you people would not get to read this.

Please give me reviews I don't like to type much and comments help to motivate me.

Until next time have a nice life.
