Sand Storm
Sora woke up early and got ready for school.
"Sora you're up early," Kero
"I promise Maddy that I'll help her out with the video-room," Sora said, "We would of done it yesterday after school, but I had Kong Fu lessons."
"Yeah I know," Kero said. He remember watching Sora and Li trained.
"I hate to admit it, but Kong Fu will come in handy," Kero said.
"I better go," Sora said leaving.
Once at school Maddy and Sora work on the room.
"Thanks," Maddy said.
"No problem," Sora said.
Sora carried boxes not noticing there were sand in the room.
"So Sora, has your dad gave you any magical stuff that'll help you catch the cards," Maddy asked, "I watch some of my mom's videos hopping to think of the best costumes for any of the cards. Like a rubber suite would have been best for thunder."
"Okay," Sora responded.
After school Maddy pulled Sora to her house to try some costumes out then Sora came home.
"Sora come in here, I have something to give you," Li said.
"Okay dad," Sora said entering the study.
Sakura was sitting next to Li.
"You want to give something to me?" Sora asked.
"Yes, actually its something your mother and I think would help you catch any card you couldn't see even though you can sense it," Li said.
Li gave her an old board.
"What is it?" Sora asked.
"Its called a laser board," Sakura said remembering it, "With the right enchantment which your father can teach you, it can find any card you can't find even though you can sense it."
"It was actually passed down from head of Shoran clan to next in line," Li said, "And since you're our daughter, and you're catching the star cards, we thought its time for you too have it."
"Thanks dad, thanks mom," Sora said.
After learning the enchantment Sora showed Kero it.
"I was wandering when your parents will give you that," Kero said.
"You know already?" Sora asked.
"Don't forget I was there when your mother caught the star cards, back when they were clow cards," Kero said.
"Oh yeah," Sora said remembering.
Sora barely knew her family from the Shoran clan. Only one she knows that were close to family, was Meilin from her visits.
"This will come in handy if there is a star card around," Kero said, "You be surprise how well some cards can blend in with their surroundings."
"Like thunder around electricity," Sora said.
"Exactly, sometime sensing a card isn't enough, so expect the unexpected," Kero said, "And don't forget that even though I'm suppose to aid you in catching the star cards, your parents can still help out."
"Right," Sora said.
The next day Sora got ready for school when the phone rang.
"Sora come to the video room when you get to school something happened," Maddy shouted.
"Okay I'll be there," Sora said.
Once there Sora saw that the room filled with sand.
"This sand just came out of nowhere," Maddy said, "I think it's a star card."
Sora closed her eyes and tries to sense it.
"It was a star card, but it seems to have left the room," Sora said.
"Oh this is great," Maddy said, "I have a costume all ready for you."
Sora sweat drop hearing her."Shouldn't we be cleaning the sand out of here?" Sora asked.
They cleaned the sand up and headed to the room.
Afterwards they went to homeroom.
"I heard about the sand incident. Better be more careful with the sand," Julian said.
"Ah yeah, okay," Sora said. She went to her seat next to Maddy.
Most of the day Sora was thinking about the star card.
"Maybe this is a good time to use the laser board," Sora thought.
"Sora Shoran," her math teacher called.
"Yeah," Sora said.
"Solve this problem," the teacher said.
Sora did so having not much trouble. Unlike Sakura, Sora had no problem with math.
Sora and Maddy went back in the video room after school.
"So what's the plan?" Maddy asked.
"This," Sora said taking out a laser board.
"What is that?" Maddy asked.
"A laser board, I can use it to find any active star card," Sora said.
They open the door to see piles of sand falling down on them.
"I'm really getting tired of this sand," Sora said.
"I just wish I brought that costume with me," Maddy said.
Sora barely climb through the sand into the room and took out the magic key.
"Key of Star, power of magic, power of light, surender the wand, and let force ignite," Sora inchanted, "Release!"
The key turned into a staff as Sora grabbed it.
"Sand Card, reveal yourself," Sora shouted.
A sand storm formed into the room.
The sand card appeared in the storm but disappeared.
"I can't see a thing," Maddy said.
"Don't worry," Sora said taking out the laser board, "Source of light with ancient spin, send forth the magic power within. Oracles of Gold, Wood, Fire, Earth, Cloud, Wind, Rain, & Electricity. Force know my plight, Release the light!"
Laserboard fired a beam into the sand storm.
"Now that we found it how do we catch it?" Sora asked.
The sand storm suddenly stopped.
"Hey it stopped," Maddy said.
"Yeah but I don't think we're done yet," Sora said.
Just then the sand under their feet became a whirlpool pulling them in.
"Jump," Sora shouted hitting the card with her staff. Wing appeared on her feet as Sora jumped out of the whirlpool, saving Maddy while at it.
Maddy open the window as Sora jumped out. Of course Sand fallowed her.
"Now I got you where I want you," Sora said. She took out Earthy.
"Earthy create creater of earth trapping sand," Sora ordered hitting the card with her staff.
Earthy appeared and dived into the earth. A crater appeared deep and wide enough for sand to be trap in it. The Sand card emerge from the crater.
"Thunder strike Sand down while its appeared," Sora said.
She hit the card with her staff and Lightning fired and hit the Sand Card.
"Sand Card, return to your power confine," Sora shouted throwing her staff down, "Star Card!"
The Sand Card and its sand was drawn by force forming a card. It landed in Sora's hand.
"Caught it," Sora said. "And a nice catch two," Maddy said.
"Hello there," someone said.
They turned to see Julian standing there.
"Mr. Star," Maddy responded.
"You didn't see anything did you?" Sora asked.
"I saw a sand storm, but that was it," Julian said.
He look into the crater still there from earth.
"Looks like someone needs to cover that hole," Julian said.
"Ah right, we'll get to it," Sora said.
As soon as it was clear, or to Sora and Maddy, they use Earthy to fill up the hole.
Julian was watching in hiding.
"Sorry Sora, but I promise the other me and your parents that I wouldn't reveal the conection between me and him until the final judgement," Julian said.
"Next time we'll try that costume with your catch," Maddy said.
"Maddy aren't you worry about the risk?" Sora asked, "You saw how powerful Sand and Thunder is, aren't you worried of about how dangerous the other cards can be?"
"Well a little, but the way I see it, as long as I'm with you, it'll be fine," Maddy said.
"Still, I can't help but shake this feeling that it'll just get harder from here on," Sora thought.
A/N: I hope that was longer than the rest. Anyways I thought that I made the laserboard appeared now since Sora now knows about her partent's magic. Sora gained magic from both her parents, so half of her magic is from the Shoran clan's magic. Which is why the Laserboard work for her.
