Silverfox: Greeting everyone. I have another story up and running. I was attacked by the plot bunny. So I had to write it.

Angel: Greetings and welcome to a brand new story.

Shadow: Oh joy, a new story.

Silverfox: Smarten up Shadow. So what if I have a new story.

Shadow: Another incomplete one that is.

Silverfox: The others will get done.

Shadow: Yeah right.

Silverfox: Shut up Shadow.

Angel: Here is the summary and Silverfox does not own Card Captor Sakura or any of the characters.

Summary: Dark forces have been on the rise, recently. They want the cards and will do anything to have them in their grasp. It has three years since Syaoran left back home to Hong Kong and Sakura misses him a lot. When these dark forces begin to attack, Syaoran makes a surprise return. Together they must stop the dark master, before he plunges the world into darkness, by guarding the cards. Along the way, Sakura gets a new guardian to help her out, through the challenges thrown her way. So Sakura, her friends and her guardians with the help of a new one, are the only thing that stands in the way, of the world falling into eternal darkness. Can they prevail, or will they fail and evil takes over?

Silverfox: There you have it, the summary. Enjoy chapter one and please NO FLAMES.

Chapter 1

In a secluded area, not too far off from Tomoeda, Japan, a group of people were gathering, in preparation for something. The whole area was suffocated with strong dark magic. This could be felt everywhere and the group didn't even bother trying to hide it. They wanted everyone that is good, to know that things were going to change from peaceful to disaster in no time. Anyone who would dare to oppose them will face the ultimate consequences because of their rebellion. Things were going to change and not for the better. Anyways they gathered and plans were thrown at each other, trying to plan a way to take the cards from their current mistress. With the cards in their possession, they would rule the world and plunge it into darkness. But the first thing that needed to be done was getting the cards, which was the hard part. That was why they had the gathering.

All the way in Hong Kong, a fifteen year old boy woke up with a start, panting. He looked around his room, trying to gather his senses. He felt a huge and ominous power surge. He let his senses spread, sensing that the power was coming from Tomoeda. He quickly got out of his bed, knowing that he had to go back. He packed up his things and was ready to leave, when a beautiful woman, named Yelan walked into his room, "Syaoran, my son, you sensed the power too."

Syaoran nodded, "Yes mother. It woke me up. I must go back to Tomoeda."

"Yes. You must protect the young card mistress," replied Yelan.

Syaoran nodded, agreeing with his mother, "And that is why I must go as soon as possible."

"You can take the early flight tomorrow morning, and be in Tomoeda by the early afternoon," replied Yelan.

"Thank you mother," bowed Syaoran.

"Now get some sleep. You have an early flight tomorrow," responded Yelan as she walked out of the room.

Syaoran watched his mother leave, feeling a sense of relief. At first he didn't think his mother would ever let him go back, with training and all. He crawled back into bed, but had a sneaking suspicion that he won't be getting any more sleep tonight. Syaoran smiled as he thought of his little cherry blossom, knowing that he would see her again very soon.

Morning came soon enough and Syaoran was up and ready. He and Wei left and headed to the airport, after a quick good-bye to his family. They arrived at the airport and boarded the plane, heading to Tomoeda. They lifted off from the ground and were soon on their way. In Tomoeda itself a certain card mistress sprinted out of the house. It was summer break and she promised that she would meet up with her friends and she was already running late. She skated to the park and arrived, not to long after. She spotted her friends and raced over to them, "Hey there Tomoyo and Eriol. I'm so sorry that I'm late."

"It's ok Sakura. We weren't waiting to long," replied Tomoyo.

Sakura smiled, "That's great. So what's the plan?"

"Don't know. Anything really," replied Tomoyo.

"Ok. Than let's head to mall or ice cream parlour. Or just hang out," suggested Sakura.

"Sounds, like a plan," replied Eriol.

Sakura nodded. They left Penguin Park, ready for a great day, just with friends. They didn't even notice that someone, with gleaming red eyes, was watching their every move.

A little bit later, a plane landed in Tomoeda airport, Syaoran and his trusty guardian Wei boarded off. They grabbed a taxi and headed back to his old place to unpack and rest up, because they were suffering a little bit from jet lag. They arrived, heading inside. Syaoran walked to his old room, quickly unpacked and headed straight to his bed. Syaoran decided to take a little nap, before he went to surprise Sakura on his return. He knew that she would be super excited, because he had a feeling that she missed, him just as much as he missed her.

He landed on his bed, falling straight to sleep. While Syaoran slept, Wei finished unpacking.

The rest of the gang left the mall and were now hanging out in the park, just having a grand time. A dark figure watched the group through a couple of trees. His red eyes gleamed as he spotted the card mistress. He grinned evilly and let loose his aura. He was ready for a fight. He was going to take the cards from the card mistress and give them to his leader. The gang felt a sinister aura, they stepped back, scanning the area.

"Do you feel that Eriol?" asked Sakura.

Eriol nodded, "Yes I do. It's very strong."

"Yeah and it's very dark," replied Sakura.

Eriol nodded, "True. Show yourself."

A cold laughter filled the area, causing the whole group to shiver in its presence.

"If that is what you want," replied a cold voice.

"Yes," replied both of the sorcerers.

"If that is what you want," repeated the same cold voice.

A figure stepped out of the shadows from behind a couple of trees. The sunlight hit the figure, showing him to have black hair and pale skin as well as red eyes. He looked at the prepared sorcerers and grinned, "Hand over the cards."

"Who are you?" asked Sakura.

The figure smirked, "Name's Shade and I'm your worst nightmare. Now hand over the cards."

"Never," replied Sakura, "You'll never get them."

"Well than I have to take them by force," responded Shade.

"You will never take the cards from me. I won't allow it," replied Sakura.

"We'll see about that," replied Shade, "I will have those cards."

"Over my dead body," said Sakura.

Shade grinned, "That can be arranged."

Shade smirked as he pulled out his weapon of choice, which was a pair of twin daggers. Sakura summoned her key as did Eriol. Pretty soon a fight broke out and Tomoyo whipped out a camera, which she had stored somewhere. She began to record the fight, but she was a little upset that she didn't get to design Sakura a battle outfit, but she knew there was going to be other chances.

Yue and Cerberus transformed into their guardian forms, heading to the area, where they sensed the strong and dark presence. They had a feeling that their mistress was going to need their help in this fight. They arrived at the area, landing nearby, just as the fight began. Eriol and Sakura vs. someone they didn't recognize or know. The fight had just begun and the dark figure stepped back, he smirked, "How would you like to meet some of my friends?"

"We're not afraid," replied Eriol.

"Oh you should be," responded Shade.

As he said that, more shadows stepped out from behind the trees. They all grinned and right away entered the fight. Sakura and Eriol were outnumbered, when the two guardians noticed, they got right into the fight. A massive battle took place, as the attacks began. Eriol, Yue and Cerberus fought off the minions, while Sakura faced off against Shade, who wanted the pleasure of defeating her himself, as well as the cards. Tomoyo recorded the whole thing, not wanting to miss anything.

Not too far away, Syaoran shot up, panting. He just had a strange dream and he didn't like the way it turned out. Syaoran tried to calm down, relaxing his breathing and calming himself down. He slowly collected and organized his scattered thoughts. Once he was calmed down and could think more clearly, he sensed a strong and powerful presence coming from the direction of the park. Syaoran knew he had to help Sakura, because he could feel that she needed him there. He got out of the bed, changing into better clothes. Before he left, he grabbed his things which he needed, rushing out of the door, without saying goodbye to Wei. The door slammed shut behind him as he left the apartment and was now racing through the streets. Syaoran wanted to get to Sakura and quickly. As he got closer, the presence could be felt and it felt much stronger as well as darker. About halfway there, Syaoran became lightheaded and dizzy.

"What the hell is wrong with me?" wondered Syaoran.

Of course there was no answer. He stumbled down the sidewalk, before the dizziness became too much and he passed out, landing hard onto the cold ground. Blackness overcame him and he knew no more.

Sakura and the rest of the gang were getting beat back. They were all seriously outnumbered and outmatched. Even Sakura and Eriol were having a problem keeping up with their enemies. Yue pulled out his light bow and began to shoot at the dark forms. While Cerberus fought with teeth, claws and fire. Eriol fought with his magic, while Sakura fought with her cards.

"Windy, release and dispel. Form a chain and trap Shade," shouted Sakura.

Shade laughed, "Do you honestly think that can stop me?"

"We'll see about that," replied Sakura.

Shade continued to laugh as he broke Windy's chain and charged at Sakura swiping his blades at her. Sakura summoned sword and parried his attacks.

"You think this will stop me. Is so than you're sadly mistaken," replied Shade.

Sakura stepped back, "Fiery, attack Shade."

Shade grinned, "Oh another attack. I'm so scared."

Fiery attacked Shade, head on, who was soon engulfed in flames. Sakura hoped that was the end of Shade. But sadly she was wrong; Shade stepped out of the flames unharmed. She cursed, knowing that she had awful luck.

Shade tilted his head, "You're going to have to do better, little card mistress."

Sakura cursed again and tried to summon three cards at once, which all attacked Shade. Once again Shade came out unharmed and threw a fireball attack at her, which she shielded herself from, using the shield card. Sakura cursed again and attacked, wanting to know how he kept coming out unharmed, no matter what she threw at him.

Above the sky and speeding towards Penguin Park a cloaked figure moved steadily, towards its destination. What led it on was the massive power that intoxicated the whole area, with its dark magic. Not too long after, the figure swooped down and landed beside Tomoyo. The others were still fighting all out against the enemy or enemies. Eriol and Sakura stopped fighting for a moment, when they sensed a new presence. Even Shade was a little bit curious about the newcomer. The sunlight bathed the newcomer, in its brilliant light. The figure had long silvery white hair tied in a ponytail, with silvery gold eyes. Its skin was a pale white with a slight tan and there was a blue crescent moon on the right side of his face, underneath its eye. It wore a back sleeveless shirt and black cargos with a gold chain, around its neck, down its arms and across his waist. On one side of the chain was a wing, while the other side was a crescent moon. On both arms there are purple bandages, with black fingerless gloves. Around the waist was a gleaming sword, with wings coming on either side of the halt. In the middle there was a symbol, which had an eclipsed half silver moon, with a blue star in front of it, with a golden sun behind it. What really got everyone's attention were the massive feathery wings. The figure grinned, "Name's Eclipse and let's get this party started."

Eclipse unsheathed his sword, smiling eerily. The real fight has just begun.
