Authors Note: Hey guys and gals! This is my first fanfiction, so I hope you like it! All of my stories will end in S+S because that is the only couple I write about. Sometimes I'll hint at some E+T but not much. I will never set a review limit for the next chapter to a story because I think it's mean to leave people hanging for a long time like that. I promise to always finish my stories. There are only three circumstances in which I won't: 1. Over half of the reviews I've gotten are flames 2. I haven't gotten a single review by the fifth or sixth chapter and 3. I hate the plot or don't like the way the story is going. For another thing, I always let my reviewers/fans choose the next story I will write. At the end of a story or when I am getting ready to write a new one I will list three story titles and their plot and have people send reviews telling me which story they want me to write first and why. Then I'll write the one that gets the most votes! Sounds cool huh? Well, on with the story!

"…….." = speaking

*…….* = thinking

(…….) = the author (me) saying something

Disclaimer: I do not own CCS….yet! HA HA HA HA HA, *smiles evilly and rubs hands together* No seriously, I don't own it, Clamp does. The only things I own in this story are the Wish Card and the idea of Cloud Cards.

Syaoran's Three Wishes

Chapter 1

The Cloud Card

Syaoran frowned uneasily. All of the Clow Cards had been had been captured and transformed into Sakura Cards, even the Hope Card and the Void Card. So what was this strange aura he felt? If only Sakura were here! She had gone to visit some relatives for the weekend. She had left Friday night and was returning this afternoon. In two and a half hours to be exact. He had been counting down from the moment she left. He missed her terribly, although she had only been gone for two days. If only she were here with him! He was sure that she would know what to do. And even if she didn't, her smiling emerald eyes would encourage him and somehow, he would find a way.

Suddenly, Syaoran's eyes snapped to attention. The aura was getting stronger! He whipped out his lasen board (I hope I spelt that right) and murmured something under his breath. A bright erupted from the board and pointed in the direction of the Penguin Park. (Everything seems to happen there!) Syaoran's eyes narrowed and he bolted in that direction. Four minutes later he skidded to a stop right in front of the huge, blue, penguin slide. Syaoran closed his eyes and concentrated. Silence filled the park as the birds and squirrels all stopped their noisy chatter and eyed the boy carefully.

A flash of brilliant white light exploded eight feet away from where Syaoran was standing, but he did not flinch (duh). Before you could say 'Look out' Syaoran had grabbed a card and shouted a chant. A blast of lighting shot at the light and surrounded it in a cage of sparks. Then the light began to take it form. It became a beautiful woman with long shining, misty white hair in a loose robe. Her skin looked like a smooth cloud, but her large, silver eyes gave her away to be a Card of some sort. Recognizing this, Syaoran reached for his sword and yelled, "Return to your power confined, Card!" The woman remained emotionless as her body swept like ribbons into the shape of a card.

It flew into Syaoran's hands and he looked at it curiously. Although it reminded him of a Clow Card or Sakura Card, he knew it couldn't be one. He looked at the back and saw, not a star, sun, or moon. It was a cloud. A white cloud with pale purple tinges. A lovely silver eye was located just above the cloud and thin gold stripes fell loosely off the edges of the cloud. Rather than being red or pink, this card's background color was light blue. Syaoran was mystified. He slowly flipped the card over so that he was looking at the front. There was that beautiful woman again. Even though the card was captured, he could still see a faint shield of light glowing around it. His eyes quickly darted down to the bottom part of the card and saw the words 'The Wish' written in flowing letters.

Syaoran was stunned. The elders had informed him about the Wish Card, but he had thought that it was only a legend or myth. Supposedly, it was created by Clow Reed, but he had not wanted it to be part of his 52 Clow Cards. So he had made it a Cloud Card. It was the first and last of the Cloud Cards, for Clow Reed never made anymore. The Card became lonely and ran away from Clow Reed in search of a new master or mistress. Whoever captured it would be granted three wishes. After the Wish card had granted it's master/mistress, then the card would be useless because that was all it could do. The card wanted nothing more than a master/mistress who cared for it and didn't just want her for the wishes. That is why you got only three wishes and not and infinity amount. It was a type of test to see whether or not the card's master/mistress was kind-hearted or greedy. That's how the story went. Syaoran wondered whether or not it was true. Obviously the part about the Cloud Card was true, but what about the rest of it?

Syaoran couldn't wait to tell Sakura! But wait, if he really did get three wishes then they would all most likely involve Sakura. Maybe he shouldn't tell her after all. It would be fun to surprise her with things she had always wanted without knowing how Syaoran was getting them for her. He wasn't sure whether or not she liked him, so this would be a perfect way to make sure that she did! Syaoran was giddy with excitement; he couldn't wait for Sakura to return from her trip. But while he was waiting he had a few things he wanted to ask the Wish Card! Syaoran quickly ran off to his house.

Authors Note: So what do you think so far? I know it was probably a short and boring chapter but I had to get the beginning out of the way. This isn't going to be a very long fanficion, but the other ideas I have for you to vote on are going to be very long, well at least compared to this. I promise to have at least one of new chapter up once a week. Like I said earlier I won't set a review limit per chapter but the more reviews I get the faster I update. Praise, constructive criticism, and flames are all welcome! Thanks for reading!
