The Neo Generation

She walked down the hallway, into the library, where her husband was working on a magic seal.
"It's okay hunny, we'll be alright." He said.
"But will they be okay." She asked, pointing down to her overly large belly.
"Yes dear, they will be just fine." He stated.
"Good, but will we be able to help them if we need to?"
"I don't know, but we have to do this, or there won't be a world for them to live in."
"Okay, lets do this." She stepped into the magic circle next to her husband, and held out her staff. The small wings grew large and the star in the center started turning in circles. Her husband held up his sword and the jewel on it started to glow. The room filled with light and the two lovers passed out in the magic circle. Her staff fell to ground and disappeared slowly into a pile of feathers.
Hikari
I ran down the hall, anxious to get to my classroom. I knew I was late, but I was hoping the teacher wasn't in the classroom yet. I pulled the door open and a group of people applauded.
"You made it in time," my friend Akane said.
"Well, I wouldn't have been this close to being late if my idiot brother had woken me up." I stated, glaring in his direction.
"Well, Hikari, you should wake up on time in the morning, you can't blame me." My evil twin brother, Tatsuya mentioned.
"Just ignore him," my other friend, Usagi, said.
"Do you want us to stop by in the morning to wake you," Akane asked.
"No, I can manage. I'll just ask my mother for help," I replied.
"Class, it's time to start," our teacher, Mr. Oyasumi, said. We all sat down in our assigned seats and started the day.
Tatsuya
I walked in the door, with my sister close behind me. She's such a pain, acting like everything is my fault, but I can deal with it, nothing really matters anyway. We walked into the kitchen and I went straight to the fridge for a snack.
"Your such a pig, Tatsuya," Hikari said.
"Deal with it," I replied, with a piece of toast hanging out of my mouth. As we argued my mom walked in the kitchen.
"What are you doing home mom, shouldn't you be at work?" Hikari asked her.
"Yes, I should be, but I forgot something." She smiled back at us. "I've got it and I wanted to say hello to you before I headed back to work."
"Well, see ya mom." I replied.
"Don't be rude Tatsuya. Love you mom, see you later." My sister said.
"See you kids." Our mother replied.
After mom left my sister yelled, "What is wrong with you, why are you so rude all the time?"
"Why do you care?" I answered, and then I ran up the stairs to my room. I pulled out a picture of my mom when she was a kid. Wow, her hair was so short! Now it's long, like her mothers was.
My sister is popular at school, everyone loves her, but I have no friends. I guess I'm just not good enough for them. Our 14th birthday is just around the corner, and I'm sure all the people who show up will be her friends. The only thing I wish is that I had some friends. That's all I want, friends.
Bang! A loud noise came up the stairs.
"What did you do?" I yelled down to Hikari.
"It wasn't me," she cried. "Come check it out Tatsuya, I'm scared."
"Fine." I yelled. I ran down the stairs and found my sister standing outside of the library door.
"It came from in there." She said. She had a baseball bat clutched in her hand, ready to defend herself if need be.
"Don't be a scardy cat," I said.
"Just open the door!" She demanded.
"Fine, fine," I replied. I grabbed the doorknob, totally unarmed and shoved the door open. We didn't see anything so I walked in.
"Look around," Hikari said.
"But I'm scared to go alone," I mocked. "Come with me."
"But, I don't wanna." She complained.
"Just come."
"Fine." She snuck into the room and we started looking around for what had made the mysterious noise. We had almost finished looking around the library and nothing was suspicious at all, but as soon as we turned the corner, we realized what had made the noise.
"Oh, it was just a book that had fallen, hehe." Hikari said.
"What, I've read every book in this library and I've never seen that one." I replied, confused.
"Maybe mom brought it back with her and put it in here before she left. Don't worry, it's probably nothing." My sister said. I wasn't so sure, so I went over to the book. It was pink and had a lion on the front and some complex designs on the back.
"This doesn't look like a book." I said.
"Who cares, just put it back," my sister pleaded. But, I didn't listen to her, and just opened the book.
"They look like cards." I said.
"How cool!" My sister exclaimed. She took the top card off. "What does it say? I can't read English."
"It says Windy." I replied.
"Windy, how cool. I didn't know you knew English." She said.
"What do you think I do when you hang out with your friends?"
"I thought you just read."
"No, I study other languages, I also know a little French."
"Windy what a strange name. What does it mean?" When Hikari said Windy again the air in the room started to move about and the books started falling of the shelves. The cards in the strange book started to move and flew up and out of the roof.
"What the heck?!" I screamed.
"Ahhh!" My sister yelled. As quick as it started, it ended and all the cards in the book were gone, but one floated to the ground by our feet. The name was Wood. I picked it up and looked at the strange book. It started to glow faintly so I threw it to the floor.
"What the hell?" I said. My sister and I looked at the book and a small stuffed animal floated out of it.
"Hello, my name is Keroberos, but you can call me Kero." The creature said in an Osaka accent.
"Ummm…hi." Hikari said.
"Hello," I replied.
"Who opened the book?" He asked.
"I did, but Hikari made the cards go flying." I replied.
"Hey, don't blame this on me." Hikari yelled.
"Whoa, your name is Hikari? I assume your Tatsuya, aren't ya?" Kero asked.
"Um…yeah, how did you know?" I questioned.
"He, you two are just like your mother." He replied.
"What do you mean?" Hikari asked.
"I knew your mother, Sakura. She owned this book after Clow Reed." Kero said.
"Who now?" I asked.
"What, you mean your mother didn't tell you?" We both shook our heads. "Do you still have any of the cards?"
"We have this one." I pulled out Wood.
"Hmm…who held it?" He asked.
"It fell in front of me," I responded.
"Well then, right your name on the card so it won't cause havoc." Kero ordered. I did as he said. "Good, now you can put it back in the book. Also, since you two scattered the cards, you have to collect them." After he said that, a staff and a sword keychain came out of the book.
"Wow," I said.
"I have chosen you two to become the new Cardcaptors, so Hikari, please step forward." Hikari stepped up next to Kero, with a nervous look on her face. "Key of the seal. Someone wishes to make a contract with you. A girl. Her name is Hikari. Key! Bestow your power on her! RELEASE! Now Hikari, grab the staff." (A.n the stanza thingy that Kero said actually comes from the book, so don't sue me for using it.) As a light swirled around Hikari, she reached out and grabbed the staff. It grew to its full length and the light vanished.
"What the?" Hikari asked, then she fell to the floor.
"Hikari!" I yelled.
"She'll be fine, she just used to much magic." Kero responded. "Now, for you."
"What?! Me?!" I replied. The sword flew in front of me and was also surrounded by a bright light.
"Now reach out and grab it kiddo." Kero said. I reached out and grabbed the hilt of the sword and the light resigned. The world started going dark and the last thing I saw was Kero as I fell to the floor.
That's all for now. Please R&R. And for those of you who don't know, A.N. means authors note. And when you review, tell me if you think I should only use the cards they have in the book, or all 52 of the ones they have on the TV show. Thank you. Bye.
