LAST, TIME.......
'' Now....'' Kero says '' Who are you and what do you
want.....and why do I sense Clow reed's energy''
His eyes grow wider, as he coldly stares at Kero. Softly he says
''That is because I AM Clow Reed.....'' __________________________________________________________________ ___________________________ Sakura stares at the stranger, as Kero cautiously backs away.......
''Bu-bu-but you can't be Clow Reed, he died hundreds of years ago.......'' Sakura whimpers.
He turns to face her, but lowers his sword as he again collapses to the ground.
'' Hundreds......of years.....'' he whispers.
His face is confused and riddled with pain, as he stares up towards Kero. The small beast hovers in the air above him. Golden light surrounds Kero suddenly, as he bends over and lightly touches him with his paw.
'' You are Clow Reed......'' he announces finally, as he turns to face Sakura.
'' But how? I don't understand.......'' Sakura exclaims
Clow Reed groans in agony, but somehow manages to whisper......
'' The jewel......quickly while it still has ......power''
The jewel lies on the floor, but instead of the once deep red glow it had, it now only faintly glimmers with a soft pink light. Quickly Sakura reaches for it, but hesitates.
''He tried to kill me.....why should I help him now?''
Clow Reed's anxious pleas fill the room with sorrow, forgetting the past she rushes forward and gives the jewel to him. Grasping it firmly in one hand, he recites an ancient spell;
When light is darkness, and Darkness is light,
Help me now, in my ancient plight,
As Shadows flicker in your heart
When glowing fires slowly part,
Shadows waiting, for the light
Help me now in my ancient plight.........
A blaze of light sparks up, as Sakura shields her eyes. When she turns to face him again, he is completely healed. The jewel in his hand has now turned to cold stone.
'' Thankyou, I -I -I'm sorry........'' He reluctantly stammers, his eyes focused on the ground.
''It's okay........'' Sakura faintly replies '' but how did you get here.......i mean you are Clow Reed but it's just so hard to believe.........''
His eyes seem to cloud over with sorrow, as he says
'' My story is centuries long, but I know I can trust him......''
He points towards Kero, who glides over to him and rests on his shoulder.
''I'm glad to see you again, Clow Reed........'' Kero happily replies
'' I know I can trust you........even though I don't remember you.........''
Kero stares up at Clow Reed '' I don't understand.......you created me and the Clow Cards''
''I may have created you......but that would be when I'm older.......you see I've been trapped inside that jewel, when I was betrayed by.......her.......''
He coldly stares at Sakura, but then softens his glare
''But your not her.......i think I'll trust you with my secret........but only if you'll help me.....''
Sakura nods her head slightly in response. Clow Reed smiles widely and then continues
'' Hundreds of years have passed since I've been locked in my enchanted prison.......you see long ago I was chosen to be a wizards apprentice.....everyone said that I had no power, that I could never learn magic, but he said that I was Destined to be the greatest...... For years I studied, learning simple charms and spells, nothing much, until he came........''
Here he stopped suddenly, as if holding back painful memories, then swallowing his hurt he continued,
'' He was the leader of the wizards Guild.......his magic was powerful, we all thought he would never betray us......but he wanted power, and he wanted to destroy me...... My teacher and friend who had cared for me died trying to protect me......i was too weak then......if only I could of done something!
His eyes swelled up with tears, but he continued......
'' I ran far away......never wanting to come back again.....hiding in the shadows until I almost became one......but she helped me.....then she betrayed me.......
He said this bitterly, grinding his teeth in spite and anger,
'' I thought she cared for me.......she was my only friend, and rival. We used to challenge eachother at magic, see who could levitate the longest, Change day into night, Cast the most powerful illusion.....But she always wanted more......more power......but then she'd smile at me and we'd just laugh....... Then one day we decided to overthrow him......the wizard who destroyed my teacher......so together we travelled to Maze Castle...... It was hard for me, but we used our powers to finally get to him..... He was stronger than I ever imagined......I wanted revenge.......blood for blood.......and I didn't care who got in my way......... I fought a fierce battle and was about to deliver the final blow when she.......sent a blast from behind that hit me in my back........and the next thing I knew I was trapped with no-way to get free.......until today........
Choked with tears of betrayal and pain he stopped and whispered
''Will you help me.......destroy him......''
Sakura stared at him in disbelief, and pity he'd been through so much........and when he was so close to victory had been betrayed by his one true friend.
'' Sure Clow Reed we'll help you''
'' you can just call me reed for short.......that's what she used to call me......''
Suddenly a loud knock on the door interrupted them. Sakura gasped as the door suddenly swung open......
