Sakura woke up. 'Ugh. I'm tired. Why the h*ll did I wake up? I think I'll go back to
sleep.'

She had just finished that pleasant thought when the sun streamed into her eyes. "Ugh!
Close those f*cking blinds!"

"I see someone woke up on the wrong side of bed this morning."

Sakura turned her head to the door. "Eriol-kun! When did you get here?"

"A few minutes ago," Syaoran answered from the window. "The stuffed animal's here too."

"So you opened those blinds." Sakura narrowed her eyes.

"Hey, don't let him have all the credit. I woke you up." Eriol waved his hand to let some
magic dust fly around.

"You two are going to get it later. You see, I found these things called Sakura Cards in my
suitcase last night." Sweat drops appeared on both Syaoran's and Eriol's heads.

"He he, uh, *gomen* Sakura-chan."

"Yeah, you'd better be sorry. Now get out while I change. You too, Syaoran."

"*Demo*-"

"Whatever you're gonna say, you should have thought before you acted. Now get out."
When Syaoran shut the door behind him, Sakura laughed herself to tears. {HA HA HA HA
HA! Sorry, couldn't resist.}

--------------------------------------------------

"I brought a few books for us to study. It might help us find out who we're dealing with."
Eriol pointed to stacks of about 100 books on the floor.

"That's a FEW books?? How in the world did you get them here?"

"Magic, what else?"

"*Hoe*..."

--------------------------------------------------
About 10 hours later...

"I'm hungry!!!" Kero cried.

Sakura looked up from the book she was studying. "It's 7 o'clock. We're not getting
anywhere doing this, and we can't research on empty stomachs. Why don't we go out and
get dinner?"

"You're right Sakura. We're not any closer in finding the villain. We also haven't eaten
since breakfast." Syaoran's stomach rumbled, showing what he wanted to say.

"All right. Let's get some food." Eriol shut his book, put it on a stack, and magically made
all the books disappear.

"Hoe? Where did they all go?"

"To my house."

"Oh."

"So, where should we go to eat?" Syaoran butted in.

"There's this great new place that opened downtown," Eriol suggested.

"Then let's go!"

"Don't forget to bring me back something!" Kero called after them.

--------------------------------------------------

During the drive to the restaurant, Sakura, Syaoran, and Eriol discussed the evil force.

"How are we going to find out about it if it isn't in any of your books, Eriol-kun?"

"I don't know, Sakura-chan. We'll find a way though. Everything will be all right in the
end, right?"

Sakura smiled. "*Hai*!"

"We're almost at the restau-"

Syaoran was cut off when a huge "boom!" sounded and the road in front of them was
blasted away. Syaoran swerved the car just in time to keep from falling in the newly
formed crater.

"What just happened??" Sakura screamed.

"I don't know. I'm going out to check." Eriol jumped out of the car and headed towards
the smoke and damage. "Damn it, I can hardly see anything through this smoke!"

"Windy! Clear the smoke so we can see!"

Windy came out and cleared the smoke, and the trio got the surprise of their lives.

"Yoki??"
