Chapter 1: The Letters and Explanations

A typical day in the peaceful town of Tomoeda. It starts with the normal citizens waking up early in the peaceful and quiet town. Soon after the citizens in a seemingly normal house starts waking up and in occasion a black haired boy calls up, "Oi! Kaijuu time to wake up!"

A pair of green eyes peeked out of the blankets and answered with a, "Sakura kaijuu janai!"

A scramble then came and in a few seconds the light brown haired, emerald eyed girl is down for breakfast. After gulping down her breakfast. She hurries to go to school in fear of arriving late.

Today though it is a special day. On a Sunday when (for once) Touya doesn't have a part time job and is sleeping late. A scream came from Sakura's bedroom and in a few seconds her father and Touya were in her bedroom wondering what was wrong.

"What is it kaijuu?" came Touya's question. Whimpering a little Sakura pointed to the owl sitting at the foot of her bed. It was carrying an official looking letter and it looked a bit annoyed.

"Hmm..." Fujitaka said, "Nadeshiko-san said it was supposed to come when you were eleven. Why is it coming now, when you're already twelve?

"Otou-san, you know about this?" Sakura asked.

"Yes." He answered, "Umm... How should I say this? Well... You see Nadeshiko-san is a witch."

Surprisingly the response he got wasn't what he expected.

"Is that all?" Touya said, "No wonder I used to feel weird around her"

"Hoe..." was Sakura's only response.

Suddenly Fujitaka felt worried for his children's sanity. I mean, how often do you get told that you're mother's a witch?

"Umm... How about opening it Sakura-san?" he said

"Okay" Sakura said. She opened the letter and read the contents.

'Ms. S. Kinomoto, (the letter said)

We are honored to inform you that you are hereby accepted to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Due to certain circumstances we weren't planning to enrole you in the school stated. Now, after other circumstances we have decided it would be best to enrole you in the school stated. Because of, again, special circumstances, you will be joining the school as a second year.

Attached to the letter is a list of the supplies you need for school. We are currently awaiting your reply.

We have been informed that you come from an all muggle family. Therefore to help you buy your things we shall send someone from the school.

Sincerely,

Minerva McGonnagall

Deputy headmistress

"Show's what they know." Sakura uncharestically scoffed.

"What do you mean Sakura-san?" Fujitaka asked.

"Err... Well you see otou-San. I'm a sorceress."

Fujitaka suddenly looked absolutely confused.

"Ehh... So you didn't blow the secret and tell the whole town yet?" Touya teased. Unfortunately for him Sakura took it as an insult and stomped on his foot. Hard.

"I started learning when I was 10. Kero-chan taught me." Sakura continued pulling open a drawer revealing a yellow plush toy snoring loudly, "It all started when I released the Clow Cards. Those are extremely strong cards with HUGE power. They were created by Clow Reed-san who was an EXTREMELY strong sorcerer."

"Kero-chan made me into a cardcaptor, I had to capture all 53 cards. And then Syaoran-kun came and he helped me gather the cards. Soon after Kazusa-chan came and we thought she wanted the Clow Cards but in truth she wanted to find the Sea Cards, but Kazusa-chan didn't tell me the card's history yet, oh well. After the cards were captured Yue-san judged me and Syaoran-kun. And that's how I became the Cards Mistress!"

"But then Eriol-kun came and strange things began to happen. I had to change the Clow Cards into Sakura Cards so they didn't become normal cards and Kazusa-chan had to do the same with the Sea Cards, she changed them into Water Cards. Unfortunately I didn't have enough power to maintain Yue-san and by default Yukito-san." Seeing her father's confused face she said, "Yukito-san is Yue-san's false form, but they have completely different personalities."

"Then onii-chan gave Yue-san all his powers and Yue-san didn't die. I managed to change all 53 Clow Cards into Sakura Cards and Eriol-kun revealed why he caused all that trouble." Sakura finished triumphantly.

"Why?" Touya asked.

"Ehh..." Sakura said.

"Why did he cause that trouble?"

"It's sort of awkward..." Sakura said looking at her father, "Here goes. Before Clow-san died he created two reincarnations of himself, the first was Eriol-kun who had to make situations in which I have no choice but to change the Clow Cards... And the second is otou-san"

"Huh?" Touya said.

"Is that why I can see Nadeshiko-san sometimes?" Fujitaka asked.

"Iie." Sakura answered, "Thats because Eriol-kun made me split half of his powers into you."

"Then why can I also see ghosts again now?" Touya asked.

"Kazusa-chan said that was because you're magical core is still developing so you're magic grew again. It was stunted for a while though because you gave most of it to Yue-san and all."

"Then why does this Kazusa kid know a lot about magic?" Touya asked again.

"I think she has a SUGOI amount of magic, but she hides it too well I can't really tell. So otou-san can you tell me about this magic school?" Sakura asked.

"Ummm... Basically it's a school that teaches magic. It's in Scotland but to get there you have to go to England first. You send letters using owls and that's about it as far as I know." he answered.

"Hoee... I wanna go! Can I go? Can I?" Sakura asked.

"No." Touya answered.

"Of course you can." Fujitaka said.

"YATTA! Arigato otou-san." Sakura said, "I'm so happy I'll make breakfast!" Just like that she left her bedroom.

"When do you think the stuffed toy will wake up?" Touya asked. That toy being Kero's greatest insult made him wake up faster than a heartbeat.

"WHO ARE YOU CALLING STUFFED TOY. I AM KEROBEROS GUARDIAN BEAST OF THE SEAL." Kero bellowed.

"Beast of the seal..." Touya said.

"You don't believe me do you Sakura no niichan... (trans: Sakura's older brother) Let me show you my real kakkoi (cool) form" Kero said before suddenly changing into 'cool' form leaving no doubt in the two men's heart that he is the beast of the seal, until he said, "See I told you it was cool."
