The Triggers of Fate
Earth

----------------
I run up, reaching the light. It was that white gem again. Whatever I do, I shouldn't pick it up. Suddenly, I feel a ping in my head, followed by the presence of a familier aura. I turn to see Syaoran coming up next to me.
"Sakura, I'm gonna pick up the gem. I want you to watch my back and tell me if something is coming."
"Right." I reply.
I see my dear Syaoran go over and pick up the white gem. I turn around, making sure nothing comes. I turn to look at Syaoran, and suddenly, a black figure comes in between us. It quickly knocks down Syaoran and I jump out of the way of it's weapon, a cross between an Axe and a sword. I quickly summon the wand and Syaoran takes out his sword. We both charge, and we both miss, I turn around and charge at the figure, only for it to disappear. There was a good 15 feet of distance between myself and Syaoran. I look at him.
"SAKURA!!!NO!!!" Syaoran drops his sword and makes a mad dash at me, then I feel extreme pain go right though my back, and out though the front. I look down in horror, the end of a sword though my body. I look back at Syaoran, as the figure pulled it's sword out of me, and then I fall limp, too weak to stand. Suddenly, I feel the figure stab me again, and I looked up to Syaoran's face, to see him in horror also.
"SYAORAN!!!"
"SAKURA!!!"
What if...the Card Captor crew came to live in America, and had to fight off a new force of evil? This is what could happen...
"WAKE UP!!!!" Syaoran's aunt yelled, waking the two up, whom which both were still laid together on the couch.
"Sakura." Syaoran said, holding Sakura tightly.
"Syaoran, that one felt more real than all the other ones." Sakura said.
"I know, stay strong, I wouldn't forgive myself if you died."
"Me too."
"Dont you guys have to go meet with your friends? It's already 9:30 AM."
"Not right now, Sakura, lets go to the basement, we got to get you used to that new gem in you."
"Yeah..." Sakura replied, as the two got off the couch, and went in the basement.
****************
The two got out of the basement, when suddenly, Syaoran's aunt showed up, with two towels, and various other clothes.
"Hey you two. Maybe you should stop worrying about being the Triggers of Destiny for a second and take a shower. You guys smell like rotten fish." Syaoran aunt said, with a clothespin clamping her nose.
"Oh yeah, it must have been from the battle last night, when all that salt water drenched our clothes."
"And Syaoran must have been so tired bringing me here, he must have fell asleep."
"Anyway, get to the showers before you smell up the house."
****************
Sakura came out of the guest room wearing a plain red shirt with the Quiksilver logo on front, and Quiksilver in japanese on back. She wore blue jeans with Syaoran's belt wrapped around her waist just to keep it up, as even as Syaoran wore it, it had a tendancy to wriggle it's way off, and got "pants" from someone earlier in the year as he wore those same pants. (AG: Think someone coming up behind someone, and pulling their pants down, that's "pants") Undernearth was what killed Sakura. She wore a thong underneath, because Syaoran's aunt's underwear couldn't fit her. The only thing that did fit was this thong that was going to be be sent to Meilin.
'Geez, with my luck with clothes, I'll be surprised if im wearing anything at all by the end of this week. First, I had to put it at best, "Flash" Syaoran just so we can figure out how to use the fire gem, then came the tube top from hell, which thankfully is now in the trash can, and then I just had to be attacked by really cold water, right when I wore a tight pink shirt, which I thought wouldn't reveal too much. The others think im dense, but im not THAT dense to see Syaoran looking at my "assets" instead of paying attention to what was going on. But that's okay...' Sakura thought, as she walked out the room, and headed down the stairs.
'He's the one I truely love, and he can see me in any kind of way he wants to.' Sakura thought to herself, as Syaoran came out of his room, in a yellow shirt with the same designs as Sakura's (or rather, Syaoran's) red shirt. Syaoran also wore the same type pants as Sakura's, wtih a belt to hold it up. (Just to let you know, the buckles have "S" on it. (o^.~o))
"Wow, you two look like you can be twins!" A familer voice said from the front door.
"Tomoyo! What are you ding here?"
"Well, I just wanted to drop by, after that battle last night and all. But really, you two look so...so...Kawaii!" Tomoyo said, behind her new camcorder.
"I agree." Eriol added, coming up from behind Tomoyo, and embracing her from behind. (AG: Hey, if you wanna know how Eriol ended up with Tomoyo, that's a story to be told later.)
"So lets go?" Tomoyo asked, as the 4 were going to park. Unlike the parks of Japan however, the parks here were small. (Hey, this is America, and the parks here are really small!) The four talked about recent stuff, from normal teenage stuff to the gems and the Trigger of Destiny legend.
Sakura and Syaoran went down the path in front of Tomoyo and Eriol, and held each other's hand.
"Eriol, so how do you think we are going to celebrate the Cherry Blossom festival if their isnt any cherry blossoms here?"
silence...
"Eriol?" Syaoran turned around to see the other couple not there. Sakura's face turn to concern.
"Tomoyo? Where could have they gone?" Sakura asked, letting go of Syaoran's hand.
"I dont know? Any suggestions?" Syaoran asked, and looked at Sakura...or where she was at. Instead of seeing the happy-go-lucky teen, he was only seeing thin air, and a hole in the ground that just closed up.
"Sakura!" Syaoran yelled out knelling to the ground. Syaoran took out his sword and looked around.
"I'm the decendant to Clow Reed, and a Trigger of Destiny, I dare you to show yourself!" Syaoran yelled out. Out of nowhere, a big brown Golem appeared. This Golem then charged toward Syaoran. Syaoran set himself.
"Power of wind! Release the Clouds! Air!" Syaoran pointed his sword upward. "Slash!" Syaoran with one deft movement, and a trail of wind guided along the ground and hit the golem. The golem just stood there, then bursted open into a pile of rocks.
"That was a fake!" Syaoran exclaimed, and looked back at the spot where Sakura fell. He concentrated on where Sakura could be, and sensed her to be...behind him? Syaoran looked behind him to see the pile of rocks, and under them was Sakura!
"No! I...I...It...It tricked me!" Syaoran yelled out, and dropped his sword and ran to Sakura's side. He carried Sakura then to a nearby bench.
"Sakura, wake up." Syaoran said repeatedly. Syaoran quickly saw a fountain, he went over to it, and turned the facuet. He returned with a wet hand, and placed his fingers on Sakura's lip. Sakura started to stir.
"Sakura."
"mmmm..."
"Sakura."
"huh? Syaoran?" Sakura said, coming to.
"Sakura, are you okay?"
"Syaroan, why did you attack me?"
"..."
"Syaoran, please, tell me."
"When I saw you, you were a big golem. This gem is smart, it tricked me into attacking you. It was pure luck that you didnt get extremely hurt."
"No wonder why I felt so heavy..."
"Well, right now, we have to get Tomoyo and Eriol back."
"Right."
At the mention of the two, two golems appeared.
"Syaoran look!" Sakura pointed at the two golems. The two started to head toward them. Sakura quickly got up.
"Power of Water! Release the floods! Ice--"
"Sakura, no!" Syaoran interupted the spell.
"Why?"
"It's Tomoyo and Eriol in those golems, just like you were when I accidentally attacked you."
"But we have to get them out of there Syaoran."
The two golems, not being attacked, instead attacked, destroying the bench Syaoran and Sakura were just using.
"We have to do something Syaoran!"
"Earth...earth...Water!"
"Of course, the Jet Stream attack!" Sakura yelled out, running in front of Syaoran.
"Power of Water! Release the floods! Jet Stream!" Sakura yelled out, as a powerful jet stream, like the one used against Sakura and Syaoran last night, hit the golems, and the rocks began to disappear, until it was only a soaked Tomoyo and Eriol.
"Alright, I think they'll be okay."
"Let's do this. Earth gem, im Sakura, mistress of the clow cards, Trigger of Destiny, show yourself!"
Suddenly, a brown boy appeared from the ground in front of Sakura and Syaoran. His hair was spiked, and it smiled.
Syaoran, descendant of master mage Clow Reed. Tell me your purpose in life.
"It...spoke..."
"Telepathically Sakura, but what do you mean my purpose in life? I dont know what you mean."
Syaoran, descendant of master mage Clow Reed. Tell me your purpose in life. It is thy written in thy heart.
"I...I dont understand."
Syaoran, descendant of master mage Clow Reed. Tell me your purpose in life, as it twas the same as your intents to wish to become a Trigger of Destiny.
"My...wish..." Syaoran repeated slowly.
**************
Syaoran is looking out the window, as a shooting star passes by.
"I, Syaoran Li, wish to become a Trigger of Destiny. I wish for this so I have the power to protect the one I love dearest..."
**************
Syaoran, descendant of master mage Clow Reed. Tell me your purpose in life, as it parallels with thy soul mates.
"Soul mates?" Sakura asked, in a blank look.
"My...I cant say." Syaoran faultered.
Syaoran, descendant of master mage Clow Reed. Tell me your purpose in life, and confess thy heart.
**************
"Syaoran..." Sakura said to the man lying next to her under her blanket on the couch.
"Syaoran..."
"Hmm...?"
"Syaoran, make me this promise..."
"Whatever it is, I'll agree on it."
"Promise that you will always give me your heart, as I will mine."
"I, on my family's honor, promise that I will always give you my heart, as you will yours."
The two then went silently to sleep, the atmosphere between the two, though smelly salt water, was inviting and intoxicating, and the two quickly went to sleep.
**************
"I...Syaoran Li, descendant of master mage Clow Reed, say that my purpose in life is to use all the power I can to protect and cherish, to serve and honor, and to love the one I love, Sakura Kinamoto." Syaoran blushed a crimson red, and looked down, trying to hide his blushing face.
'I should have expected this...but why am I blushing?' Sakura thought, blushing just as red, though still looking at the figure in front of them,
I shall join you then, Syaoran, descendant of master mage Clow Reed, for thy purpose is true. Know, that as long as you hold back, the more chance thy dream will come true. Be warned, but now, prepare to receive me, Crono, the earth of energy and envioments, within you.
Crono, the brown boy, turned into a brown gem, and entered Syaoran though his back, though it wasnt painful at all. It was because the gem wasnt infected by Lazarus. Tomoyo and Eriol woke up suddenly, and Tomoyo was happy as the camcorder she was holding managed to catch every word said, except for those said by Crono.
*************
Syaoran escorted Sakura to Sakura's front door.
"Sakura, I hope you had a fun time."
"Of course I did. Thank you Syaoran, without you, I dont know If I'd be living." Sakura said, embracing him.
"Aishiteru." Syaoran said.
"Aishiteru, my dear Syaoran." Sakura said, closing her eyes, as he did his. The lips came closer, and were a fraction of a second away from locking when a sudden explosion from the door bursted out. This caused Syaoran and Sakura to jump away from the door, and break their embrace.
"You! Who are you! Scram!" An angry older brother said.
"Touya!"
"Go! I dont care if your my sister's boyfriend, just get your sorry butt out of here!" Touya said.
"Geez, still the same, isnt he Sakura?" Syaoran said, walking away.
"Unfortunately, yeah." Sakura replied.
"Okay Sakura, how does that genki know me?"
"It's Syaoran. Of course he would remember you."
"The Chinese boy back in Japan? You got to be kidding me, that GENKI would never have the balls to show up here."
"But that was him! And what is going on between him and me is none of your business!" Sakura yelled back, and slammed the door, leaving Touya locked out.
