Returning Home Chapter 3
(Revised version)
A/n: Ok, someone said this was confusing. I reread it and discovered it made no sense. Even to me. So I sorta redid the ending to make *some* sense. ^_^
**************************
Sakura looked at her outfit. "Sharon, it's *beautiful*!" In the background Sharon beamed.
Sakura was wearing a pink flowered, chinese like shirt with a white long sleeve shirt that looked like it
was only meant to button at the waist, and black skintight pants. Sakura turned to Sharon. "Did you say
your sister owned this?" Sharon's eye's turned sad. "Yes."
Sakura being the person she was saw it. "What happened to her?" Sharon shook his head. "I
don't want to talk about it." Sakura nodded accepting it. Sharon suddenly stood up. "Well, if your
ready, I guess we can go." Sakura nodded again. "Just one question." He asked.
"What?"
"Where are we heading?"
Sakura blinked. "Japan."
Now Sharon blinked. "Japan?"
Sakura nodded. "Do you know where that is?"
For a while Sharon just stared at her. Then- "Yes, I do," he began slowly. "But it will take a
while to get there." Sakura sighed. "That's because," he continued, "We can't go by plane."
"Where are we?"
"A place other wise known as America."
"...America??" Sakura stared. How on Earth had she gotten that far away from Japan??? Sharon
blinked, then shook his head. "Come on. We can catch a bus, which will take us out of town." Japan....
Sharon thought. Home....
***********************
Everyone stood there for a moment. Then: "Nani??" Nakuya blinked. "I said Niyama is trying
to enter the Card Mistress's dreams." She replied. Kero flew in front of her. "What do you mean?"
asked Kero "And who's 'Niyama'?" Li added. Nakuya looked at them, then took a deep breath.
"A long time ago, there was a man who seemed to only exist to protect his home…
*flashback*
"Sharon!" A young man turned in the direction of the person who had called him. (Yes he's the same
Sharon. You'll see why this is important later on....) A ten-year-old girl was running towards him.
"Sharon! It came back!" She yelled. Sharon cursed. "Come on. I need you to tell everyone to get out
town, now!" The nodded and ran off. Sharon looked up, and said something VERY... colorful...
On a near by tree stood a woman who looked like Nakuya, only with pinkish hair and a
mixed purple/silver colored eyes, with no pupils. "Numasi! Live the villagers alone, it's me you want."
Numasi grinned. "Your right, but it's not fun just attacking you." She held up her hand, and the little girl
from before appeared.
Sharon gasped. "Nikkei!" He gritted his teeth. "Let her GO!!!" He suddenly started to glow.
Numasi watched in interest. Sharon was whispering something.
"Opposite of good,
Symbol of hate.
By my power
Unto you I separate!"
Numasi screeched as a blue beam hit her. She lost her balance and fell from the tree, releasing Nikkei.
Numasi started to get up. "And you Magician I trap in the dream realm til a kind heart releases you!"
*end flashback*
(Nakuya) "Just before she was separated, Numasi trapped Sharon in another realm, along with his sister
Nikkei. Numasi herself was split into two people. One evil: Niyama." She looked up. "One good: Me."
***********************
Eriol stirred, moaning. ::Where am I?:: Slowly he sat up, looking at the room around him. He
was lying on the stone floor of a huge (I'm talking about HUGE!) room. The only light in the room was
coming from the setting sun. There were four lit candles. Only these candles where lit with a flame that
gave off no light, and absolutely no warmth. Barely noticable, right in front of the candle pillars was a
shield. Lastly was the figure who had attacked him.
"Who are you?" The figure smiled at his question. "For now, it is now it's Niyama." the
figure- woman- responded. Eriol frowned. 'For now?' "What are talking about? Why did you kidnap
me?" The firgure laughed, a warm laugh touched with cruelty. "My we're full of questions, aren't we?"
The woman reached out touching one of the pillars. It started to glow. When the glow disappeared a
staff was in its place. Niyama started to chant.
"What was once one,
But now is two.
The powers that seperated
your power,
I copy and return them!"
Eriol, who had realized what she was doing, clutched his stomach in pain. After a few painful
minutes it stoped, leaving him breathing heavily. Niyama was standing up from where she had fallen after
the chant. "You can't copy someones powers." He weezed. She smiled. "I can copy some and give
them to someone. I can not copy a person's true powers. But that's not of my concern." She turned to
leave.
"Why?"
"Nani?" She turned back to him. He was stareing at her.
"Why are you doing this? What do you want?"
"I need a power strong enough to allow me to enter the dream realm. I must keep the Card mistress in
the dream realm, long enough for me and my other half to rejoin. If she is allowed to exit it, she will help
join us the other way. She turned away from him. "I do not like that option." Then she was gone.

A/n: Ok, I know what you're thinking. 'death to the author' and all that lovely stuff. I just wnat to say I
really, REALLY don't know where this is going. And sorry it's so short. I have never beeen known
for... long stories before. I'll *try* (keyword: try) to make a longer chapter next time.
Another thing to TINA: this isn't the type of magic isn't anything like what Sakura would be able to sense.
At least not unless she knew what she was looking for. That's all.
