It's five in the afternoon. Syaoran has skipped classes and stayed inside his apartment the whole day. He was very exhausted.

He lied in the bed and rest, but he cannot sleep. He keeps having his dream in mind and he knows Sakura is in danger. He thinks it'll be his fault of that, so he decided to stay away from her.

Suddenly, a knock came from his door. It was Wei, and he was very worried.

"Syaoran-sama, are you all right?"

Syaoran nodded faintly. He doesn't seem to be.

"Please, Syaoran-sama, if you continue doing this recklessness, your mother will be very angry and worried."

Syaoran closed his eyes. Yes, his mother. His mother, along with his sisters, were all living in Hongkong. The whole Li clan is a descendant of the powerful Clow Reed, and most of them had multiple powers. Syaoran's mother is a very powerful magician herself, and she was able to help Sakura back in Hongkong. But even with her calm and charming appeal, she is very strict overall. She hates even the most little mistakes, that's why Syaoran grew so aggressive and quiet. He was never able to play when he was young, and even he was living his life with women, he was never able to deal with them. His life was very quiet and strict in his ten years of living... until he met Sakura.

Wei seemed to be knowing what Syaoran is thinking. He decided to leave Syaoran to cool his head over. But just before leaving, a very powerful aura surrounded the house. This alerted both Wei and Syaoran.

"H-here it is again..." Syaoran grabbed his sword. "That annoying aura!"

"Syaoran-sama!" Wei rushed over Syaoran. "It's dangerous! Get out of there!"

Syaoran's room window glowed very brightly, and it began to open by itself. A woman walked inside.

Wei pulled Syaoran out from the bed just in time the woman strikes. Her hair was covering her face that makes it a little unclear, but Syaoran and Wei knew who it was.

The woman smiled very eerily, and she has been holding some sort of a key. She suddenly casted a familiar spell.

"O key which hides the power of darkness, reveal thy true form before me. Revealed under the contract, I, Cheiyou, command you: Release!"

The key suddenly turned into a wand-a moon-like wand. Syaoran realizes this is the stick she was holding in the dream.

The woman smiled. "It's been a while, Wei."

Syaoran, confused, stared at the shocked Wei. "Y-you know her?"

Wei closed his eyes in disappointment and nodded. "Yes."

The woman walked closer to the two. She stared at Wei, then turned into Syaoran. She smiled again. Then her fingers suddenly run over Syaoran's cheeks. She rubbed his hair and touched his face.

Syaoran shoved the woman's hand away then he draws his sword in defense. "Don't you heck harass me and introduce yourself!"

The woman stormed in laughter. "So they still haven't told you about me yet, have they? Is that how they've forgotten about me?" She turned to Wei. "Is that how, Wei?"

Wei bowed gently, but his expression is full of disappointment. "That's not how it is, Cheiyou-sama. We still haven't forgotten about you."

Syaoran was now very confused. "What are you talking about, Wei? Who is this woman?"

The woman waved her wand over Syaoran. "Don't worry, Li Syaoran. You'll know who I am soon." She showed Syaoran the Clow Cards she have. "Look at these, my boy. Am I or am I not powerful?"

"T-those are..."

"Clow Cards, yes. These are the Clow Cards I changed from the Mistress's Sakura Cards." Light, Dark, Firey, Watery and Shield came floating in front of them.

"B-but how...?"

"Whenever I'm surrounding the both of you inside the Dark, I'm not just devouring her powers, but gathering all the Sakura Cards she's using as well. Then I'm changing them into Clow Cards."

"Why?"

"Because all of the Clow Cards belong to me." Then she waved agin her wand to Syaoran. "And you belong to me."

Just before the woman hypnotizes Syaoran again, Wei came rushing over to protect him. "No, stop!"

"Don't get in the way!" The woman uses Watery and shoves the both of them outside the room.

"Wei!" Syaoran whined as he saw Wei fighting for his life. He suddenly gets angry and grabs his sword again.

"God of Thunder, come forth and hear my command!"

Thunder appears from Syaoran's sword and tried to attack the woman. But the woman uses a Clow Card, Shield, to protect herself.

"You disobeyed me, Li Syaoran! Because of that, I'm going to hurry and end the Mistress's life!"

When the woman was about to cast a spell on Dark, Syaoran rushes over her and puts his arms around her body.

"No, please! Don't! I'm not going to disobey you again anymore... So don't hurt Sakura!"

The woman, thinking he'll still be of use to her, forgives him. "But if you disobey me again, I'm not just going to make her weak. It'll become the end of her!"

She lets go of Syaoran's grip, and disappeared.

Syaoran rushes over the unconscious Wei. "Wei! Wei! Are you all right?"

Wei opened his eyes. "S-Syaoran-sama... W-where is she...?"

"She's gone. How about you? Are you all right?"

"Y-yes. This is just a fracture. Please don't worry about me."

"You saved me. I'm so sorry." Syaoran tried to carry Wei into his room. "But Wei, who really is that woman?"

When they both managed to walk towards Wei's room, Wei lies in his bed and breathed deeply. Then he explained everything to Syaoran.
