Chapter 8- Double Team

After their marvelous captures, everyone was exhausted!
"Hey monster! You and your friends wanna go out for lunch?" Touya asked Sakura.
"Nah! I'm too tired! You and Yukito go!" responded Sakura as she yawned.
"Why are they all tired?" Touya asked himself as he left.

Sakura, Syaoran, Ling, Tomoyo and Eriol took a nap and didn't wake up until 2:00 P.M. They were all refreshed. Ling practiced her kung fu in the garden. Eriol was telling Tomoyo about his life in England. This left Sakura and Syaoran all alone. Sakura and Syaoran decided to go for a walk, hoping that a Ling Card wouldn't come out. They walked hand in hand in the peaceful park while talking about what has happened to them recently.
Sakura said, "I think that it's so amazing that we have a chance to be friends with Ling! Anyone who knows about Clow Reed would love to be her friend. She's real special.".
"Ya, I guess she's pretty cool!" Syaoran said.

Just as they were going to sit down on a bench, Sakura saw something odd. It was a sword in a stone.
"Oh look! Doesn't that remind you of that story about the sword in the stone?" Sakura said excitedly.
"Um… I don't think that you should touch that! It seems a bit weird, don't you think?" Syaoran said back.
"Well, a little! I just wanna see if I can take it out! Maybe it requires magical powers!" Sakura told Syaoran. As soon as she touched the sword, she vanished.

"Sakura! NOOO!! Sakura! Omigod! Where the hell did she go? Sakura!!!!!" screamed Syaoran. Syaoran felt like he was about to cry and like he was on the verge of having a mental breakdown. He didn't want to lose his 1st love! "Sakura!!! Come back!!" he screamed again. Then it hit him. LING! She could help him! He ran home (at his record top speed).
"Ling! Ling! I need your help! Sakura! She's gone! Vanished! Help!" he said.
"Whoa! Slow down! Say that again." Ling said calmly.
"Me and Sakura were at the park, and she went to pick up this sword in a stone. As soon as she touched it, she disappeared!" Syaoran said.
"Well, it seems that the Teleport Card and the Sword Card have teamed up! We've got to start looking! She could be anywhere!" Ling said.
"We've GOT to find her! I'm not going to stop looking until we find her! I don't want to lose her! She's my everything." Syaoran said sadly.
Ling hugged him. "Don't worry. We'll find her!" she said assuringly.

Right when they were about to leave the door, the phone rang. Syaoran can't let a phone go on ringing, so he quickly picked it up.
"Hello?" he asked.
"Syaoran!! Omigod! I'm soooo happy to hear your voice! I love you!" It was Sakura!
Syaoran just about fainted from happiness. "I love you too! Me and Ling are coming to get you. Where are you?" he asked.
"I think that I'm downtown! By the old movie theater!" she answered.
"We're on our way!"
"Please hurry!"

Ling and Syaoran took a cab there. In the cab, Syaoran told Ling, "Thanks for being there for me! You really helped me."
"No problem." She answered a bit sadly.
"What's wrong?" He asked her.
"Oh nothing!" she assured him.
As soon as they got to the old and deserted movie theater, Syaoran ran (faster than his record time) to Sakura. They hugged and kissed as if they had been separated for years. When they finished, Syaoran looked at the sword in the stone, with fire in his eyes. He used fire to weaken it. He had no idea how much power he had used; he weakened both the Teleport Card and the Sword Card. The sword popped out of the stone, and a little girl in blue (with a remote control teleporter in her hand) popped out of the sword. She passed out. Ling sealed both cards. Before Sakura and Syaoran could thank Ling, she had already left.
