Author's Notes: I am going to give another try at writing romance. If it's corny or anything like that, let me know what I can do to change it or just tell me to quit entirely.

Preservers of the Dreamscape
Every once in a while, a mishap occurs in a parallel world and the love and innocence of that world would slowly diminish. It is up to the Preservers of the Dreamscape to preserve the love and innocence to some degree. This is the tale of one particular Preserver and an emerald-eyed girl.
The Defender looked at the beautiful plane where the thoughts of innocence bound themselves together to form harmony. This was one of the few places his chaotic counterpart cannot destroy. He moved to Crothus' workplace where he was busy trying to assign duties to the Preservers. "Tough day?"
Crothus looked up to see Strider. "Oh, it's you. Do you mind giving me a hand with assigning everything? I tell ya, it's getting harder each day to get by." Strider picked up a paper and looked through it. The name of the child haunted him when he read it. It was the name of his mother, the same mother who was mercilessly slaughtered by Tsabo Tavoc one week ago, Sakura Avalon.
"Hey, you!" An amber-eyed boy flew up to him. "Yes?" Strider handed him the assignment. "Your assignment will be to guide this girl. There is a possibility she will be corrupted by her recently discovered magical power." The boy studied the status report while the entity continued to speak. "You will go under the name of Li Syaoran. Here is all the data you will require."
As the boy flew off to that world, Strider started to ponder if his presence will set that world straight. After all, there is no Li Syaoran in that world. Who knows what could happen if Sakura was in danger and no one was around to help? The Defender silently prayed that his action by creating a Li Syaoran for that world could save it from the dark future that it would eventually encounter.
'The target is in that classroom.' The boy had finished establishing necessities for himself. He created false records and memories. According to those records, he was raised in Tibet. One of the monks even accompanied him to Readington so Li didn't have to worry about having a guardian.
"Everyone, please welcome Li Syaoran." He stepped into the classroom and carefully scanned for magic auras. "Li, why don't you take the seat behind Sakura?" The boy did not reply. He simply took his seat behind the girl. 'She's giving off an aura. So far the report is accurate. I better check with the Lasenboard.'
The morning had come and gone. The students had just gone off for lunch. Li silently climbed a tree and took out his Lasenboard. Unlike normal ones, this Lasenboard was made in the Dreamscape. Rather than pointing a beam, it would show an image in the user's mind that will tell him or her what is being asked. The boy gave a quick thought to the Lasenboard. 'Confirm my suspicions about Sakura.' He began to chant.
"Source of light in ancient spin
Send forth the magic power within
Oracles of gold, wood, water, fire, earth,
clouds, wind, rain and electricity
Force, know my plight
Release the Light!!!"
A small ball of light came out of the board and scanned the school perimeter and an image of the Clow mistress came up in Li's mind. 'How is it that some one as innocent as her become involved in the ancient arts of sorcery? What am I to do with you?'
"Li!" He turned and saw Sakura with Madison below him. He leaped off the branch of the tree. "Is there someting I can do for you?" Sakura gave a smile. "Uh...no. I just want to welcome you to Readington. My name is Sakura and this is Madison." The black haired girl smiled.
'This is the one who could get corrupted? According to the report...now I understand. Her mother died the same day when she opened the Clow. She has a huge burden on her shoulders. Perhaps I can relieve some of that burden.' "You're the one chosen by Kerberus?" Sakura gave a startled look. "What...?"
Li narrowed his eyes. "I am fully aware of the incident with the Clow. I assume that Kerberus has chosen you to be the cardcaptor." Sakura knew that it was no use denying it. "Kero gave me the task of capturing the Clow cards." Li nodded. "The task is a rather large one. I will assist you." With that, he walked away, leaving a stunned Sakura and Madison.
I don't know if I should continue with this fic. By the way, I decided to alter Li's personality to a more analytical and logical one. I guess I've been watching too much Voyager. Give me a review and let me hear your thoughts.
