"Yuki! Where are you!?"
It's Leon, my concerned brother, running towards me as I became unconscious after a tiresome battle with the "Fly" monster.
"Thump!" I crashed on the ground.
When I woke up, I found myself in my own bedroom, seeing Kerberos right beside me, being concerned, "Star! Are you alright!? Are you alright!? How come you suddenly faint?"
Before I could even mutter a word, a knock on the bedroom door was heard.
Immediately, Kerberos dashed to a corner and became "lifeless" into a plush toy.
When the door opened, it's Leon!
Concerned like Kerberos, he asked the same question, "Monster! What happened to you? Are you alright? I found you unconscious on the ground with that… plush toy… you're holding."
"I SAID STOP CALLING ME MONSTER!" I exclaimed as I lift my body up from the bed to converse with my brother.
"Hey! Don't get up now! Get back to bed! You have been unconscious for 2 times in the last 24 hours and you are constantly making me worry over you!" my brother exclaimed softly. "Just get some sleep. I'll make your favourite fish porridge later."
I asked my brother about the hospital. I sneaked out of it and I believe that my father must be worried sick for me.
"Don't worry. I called dad about what happened and everything's OK. Just get some rest." he replied as he walked out of the room, shutting the door behind him.
Kerberos then broke out of his odd character, screaming softly "Ahhhhh! I can move again!" as it stretched itself from the stiffness.
Kerberos then flew towards me, repeating the same question, "Are you alright?"
"I… I…" I muttered
"DON'T YOU SAY "I… I… I…"" he screamed. "Say something!"
I regained my composure as I told Kerberos that I'm fine. "I saw a creature, looking like a chicken and a dragon together… Is that a dream?"
"Of course it's not a dream!" Kerberos said as it held out a card from the Sakura's Book
It's that creature! Fly! It wasn't a dream after all!
Kerberos then changed the topic, asking "So… Star, what is this place?"
"This is my home. And I'm not Star! How many times have I told you!?" I exclaimed as I shook Kerberos's body back and forth.
As Kerberos was dizzy from the shaking, it exclaimed "But… but you are Star…"
Being angry over repeating my name, I shook Kerberos even harder, yelling at its ear, "I'M NOT STAR!"
Suddenly, another knock on the door was heard. Kerberos again limped its body in a lifeless state, looking like a plush toy again.
The door opened. It was my dad. He came in worried, telling me not to yell at the doll.
"Are you alright now Yuki?" he asked. "Don't worry about the hospital. I… made sure that they say that you're discharged from it."
"Yeah, I am alright. Just exhausted…" I said with a weak smile.
Then, my brother Leon came in with a great smell of my favourite fish porridge. "Here. Your favourite fish porridge made with brotherly love. Have it while it's hot", he said.
"Yeah, thanks." I said while I take the bowl from him and began to eat.
When I finish about half the bowl of the porridge I gave it back to Leon and I lay back down to bed.
"Have an early rest and don't go to school tomorrow alright?" Leon said and he walked out of my room. My dad patted my head and told me to have an early rest and went out of my room as well.
Then, Kerberos stretched itself again "This is really getting nowhere! Star, who are those people?" it asked.
"I already told you that I am not Star. My name is Yuki! Those people are my father and my brother." I replied.
"What? That is your Dad? Well since you have been reincarnate you will have a new father." Kerberos said while nodding to itself.
"Anyways, why are you doing here?" I asked.
"I need your help to seal all the cards again, even though you are not Star as you claim you are still the one who set the cards free." Kerberos explained.
"What?! I am just a normal girl! How can I seal all the cards there must be at least 30 over cards in that books." I exclaimed.
"Actually there are 52 cards of Sakura's Cards or should I say Clow's Cards," it exclaimed.
"Clow Cards? Sakura Cards? So which is it?" I asked.
"Actually it was Clow Reed who created the cards and after 50 years, Star killed him and the cards itself selected the new mistress named Sakura and now, you will be the new mistress of the cards." Kerberos explained.
"But how can I be?" I asked curiously.
"You already found and sealed "Fly" back to a card. You can do it with other cards too. Besides, the staff already linked together with you and no one else will be able to seal the cards now and if you unable to find all the cards and become the new mistress, a disaster will happen to Japan putting the population's life in great danger." Kerberos explained in great detail.
"W…What?" I was in a total shock right now. If I unable to do it, I will put people life in great danger? I thought to myself.
"Please Yuki… becoming a cardcaptor is an awesome thing to do! Many people don't even have their own life to do it." Kerberos begged with its puppy dog eyes.
"But you said that I may be Star, do the cards even want me to become their new mistress when I may be the one who kill their own master at the first place?" I said.
"Actually when Clow first create the card he wanted you to become the next Mistress at the first place… now it just got back to square one." Kerberos said.
"But...I..."
"Just accept it." Kerberos interrupted in before I can finish what I wanted to say.
"O...Okay, I don't want to put anyone's life in danger in the first place. I just accept it for now." I sighed.
"Okay! Thanks Yuki. Let's hope the Cards will appear one by one starting tomorrow as last time when Sakura using almost all her summer vacation to find all the Cards!" said Kerberos happily with its eyes sparkling.
"Last time? How long ago?" I asked.
"Well, when I see the calendar just now and last time ago I can say it about 60 years ago."
"What? You mean these Cards must be at least 110 years now?!" I shouted while lowering down my voice wanting to let Leon or my dad to hear me shouting again.
"So what have you been doing for 60 years?" I asked.
"I am supposed to be guarding the Cards while I wait for the new master/mistress to open it I have fallen asleep since I was getting too bored and I had been attacked by someone wanting the Cards." Kerberos explained.
"Someone attack you?" I said.
"Yuki! Let's just work hard together! I hope that guy will not kill you when he meets you." Kerberos whispered the last part.
"Huh? Who?" I asked.
"Oh, nothing! Let's just find all the Cards alright? When you are feeling better I teach you how to use the "Fly" Card. You look exhausted right now, just get some sleep alright? I will just be sleeping right beside you." Kerberos said while he "Float" down.
"Kerberos..."
"Call me Kero. Star always called me Kero! I want to relieve some memories from you as you look like Star."
"Okay, I guess." I replied.
"Now, Let us get back to sleep." Kero said while switching off the lights and laying beside me.
"Good night Yuki."
"Good night Kero."
I entered a deep sleep. Strange images danced before my closed eyes. None of them made sense. Finally my subconscious settled on the image of the city. An old city centuries in the past. I could sense the magic of this place.
"Where am I?" I thought to myself.
"Star, come here. Fly will not hurt you." A voice sounded.
Who is that? Someone is calling Star. This doesn't look anything I dreamt before. I thought to myself as I walked towards the source of the voice.
To my surprise, I saw an exact duplicate of me with a man holding my hand and walking towards the creature I sealed yesterday.
Is that girl… me? I thought to myself. She looked exactly like me!
The man with long hair tied up wearing spectacles and wearing a long black blue robe.
I stared at the creature that is looking at the duplicate of me. She looks frightened when she looked at the creature. That creature looks like it wants to eat her up.
"Star, come on. "Fly" is nothing to be feared about. Go ahead and ride on! You will find it enjoyable." The man said while pushing Star towards the creature.
Star shakes her head and started to struggle. She is trying to get away from here.
"Come on Star."
"Master, maybe young Mistress is not ready for the ride on "Fly" you won't get her to ride on it. She is too frightened." Said a tall man with long silver hair touching the ground by his bare feet.
"Yue. Maybe you can talk some sense to her. She doesn't even want to touch "Thunder" "Fly" or even "Firey" But other cards such as "Light" "Dark" "Windy" seems to be getting along fine with her. She must get along with the cards as she is becoming the new Mistress some day and she hasn't said a single word since she arrived here" The man said.
"Master, Young Mistress still needs time. Even though she gains power from you, she is still young." The silver hair man say with any emotion.
"Yeah! Clow you should get her to get some time to get used to it. There is no use rushing. Now she is too frightened." A large-winged yellow mountain lion said to the robe man.
When Star saw the large-winged mountain Lion she immediately hid behind the man who is holding her hand.
"W...What? She is afraid of me more than she is afraid of Yue? This is so unfair!"
"Kerberos, young mistress is still getting used to this. The Clow cards and even the both of us." Yue said.
"But it is still unfair for her to be afraid of me and not you." Kerberos whined.
Feeling the unfairness, Kerberos walked over to Star. When Star saw that the lion is walking towards her, she turned around and ran away. She didn't see where she was going and smacked at Yue.
When Star realized what she did to Yue, she blushed and walked away.
"Young Mistress…" Yue said while staring at Star.
Star looked up at him and looked back down without saying anything.
"Young Mistress please forgive me on what I am going to do." Yue say while he appear his wings from his body.
Yue lifted Star while Star held his neck as he lifts off to the sky.
Being frightened, Star screamed in fear.
"LOOK! Star has finally said her first word!" Clow said excitedly.
"Erm... this doesn't really counts as her first word. She is only screaming." Kerberos said while sweat dropped from his head.
"Star, look around you what do you see?" Yue said it to Star.
Star being frightened doesn't want to look around just holding tight against Yue with her eyes closed.
Sensing Star is nervous about the flight, Yue calmly said
"Don't worry, I will not drop you. Just take a deep breath and look around. The view from flying is amazing."
Star took a deep breath, opened her eyes and looked around. She could saw an entire reigon and the sky is closer to her as she thought.
"Woah!" Star looked around with excitement.
"Now, do you want to try to ride on "Fly"?" Yue asked.
Shaking her head when she looked at the creature again.
"You know that "Fly" is very depressed now?"
"Why?" Star asked with a low-toned voice. Clow was excited that his daughter had finally spoken her first word.
"You are the future mistress of the Clow Card… "Fly" is disappointed that it cannot serve its mistress well." Yue explained
"Oh... I am sorry." Star said with a sorry tone.
"Do you want to ride on it?" Yue asked.
Star nodded as Yue flew towards "Fly". Yue then mounted Star to its back.
When Star was on its back, she is still nervous and frightened as what would happen if she fell.
"Don't worry. I am sure that "Fly" won't let you fall off right?" Yue glared at "Fly" with his glare to warn it not to drop Star.
"Fly" nodded its head and Star took off to the skies with it, while Yue flew beside her.
"See! Today, Star is able to ride on "Fly" and she is able to speak now." Clow said with a tear in his eyes.
"Yeah, she still prefers Yue than me. It is so unfair!" said Kerberos jealously. "I hope that Star falls of "Fly" so that she may hate Yue."
The two figures saw Star riding on "Fly" with Yue beside her all of them smile even Star made Yue having a smile on his face.
Mischievously, the jealous Kerberos summoned and threw a fireball at "Fly", making it fly about. Without noticing, Star lost her balance and fell from it.
"Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" she screamed in fear of heights as Yue swept down to catch her.
"I've got you, Star" said Yue as he calmed her down from the frightening fall as Star fainted from the loud scream.
Then, Yue glared at Kerberos as Kerberos pretended nothing had happened.
Yue then "returned the favour" by throwing a moon spear at Kerberos, and again pretending that nothing had happened.
Then, I heard a man in black and blue robes with a familiar voice yelling at Kerberos.
With that, I woke up finding myself in my room the whole time… and it is 8 am in the morning! I clearly remembered what a strange dream I had. It looks so real and it look it must've happen long time ago.
I stretched and pulled myself out of bed, with Kero beside me.
"Hey! Have you got a good night sleep?" Kero asked.
"Yeah, thanks for asking. Can I ask something?" I asked.
"Sure, go ahead."
"Who is Yue?" I asked, having the strange feeling that Kero is the mountain Lion that I saw in my dream.
"Woah! Where you hear that name from?" Kero asked shockingly.
"I have dreamt where a sliver hair man with wings helped me to ride on "Fly". I think you are there. There is another person who wore the rope with spectacles is there." I said as I recall what happened.
"That is you, Star!" Kero exclaimed "Where you first came to live with us! You were so afraid of the Clow Cards let alone speak with other people." Kero continued.
"So that person is Yue, Clow and you?" I said.
"Yup! You were so afraid of me! I don't know what to do and then Yue took the chance to fly with you to get rid of your fear." Kero said.
"Why I suddenly will remember these things? I didn't remember any before." I asked while I looking at Kero.
"Well, maybe as you unlock the book, you also found "Fly", they are showing you their memories of them with you so you will be able to remember everything from your past life!" Kero explained.
"But a lot of things I don't get it. How did I die in the first place? Did I really kill my own father?" My eyes are full of tears and misery now.
"Don't cry now! If sealing all the Clow Cards or rather Sakura Cards let you recall what happen to the past, let find all the Cards to regain your memories!" Kero said while trying to cheer me up.
"Okay." I agreed. Now I really need to know what happen to me in the past. I must get the Cards back. To figure out what is going on and what killed me and Clow at the first place. I thought to myself.
Suddenly, I feel a huge amount of power coming downstairs and Kero immediately looked serious.
"Yuki, there is a Clow Card here in this house." Kero explained.
This is the next chapter of the story! Looking very interesting now? Any suggestion of what Yuki is gaining back now which part of her memories? And also what is the next Clow Card or Sakura Card is in with them? You can review to find out! And suggestions are welcome!
