Searching for the origin of
this voice, Sakura let out a confused, "Hoe....?" as she stumbled through
the cluttered plants. Sun light broke through the foliage, making the Card
Mistress block it with her hand. The sound of splashing water could be
heard in the distance, Sakura uncontrollably ran forward towards the sound.
When she reached the water,
it was very incredible, it stretched for miles in every direction. scattered
with rocks and large leaves that grew in the water. Looking over the horizon,
something didn't feel right, it wasn't a Clow Card of any kind, but it
felt familiar to the Mistress' magical senses. Calm, strong, protective,
yet bold, like Syaoran's aura, but there was a large amount of gentle kindness
and tears, rarely seen in his aura, so it had to be different.
Light rain sprinkled down from
the glassy sky, "Oh great..." she thought breaking into reality, the rain
showered down quickly soon the Card Mistress was chilled to the skin with
freezing water, "This rain won't hurt you," the voice responded, it was
still a female voice, that didn't give Sakura much comfort but it was something
to think about.
"Please, come out..." Sakura
offered trying to talk in all directions. The Mistress of Cards closed
her eyes and searched for the magical aura more carefully. Although she
concentrated with great ease she couldn't find it, it was equally spread
out in every direction probably to make her confused. A shadow formed in
the shallow part of the massive lake, a woman's figure arose from the water.
It had long wings like Yue's and equally long hair. Her eyes were completely
blank, as the rest of her body formed.
"Are you the one I sent for?"
the voice asked again, the rain came down harder as a bolt of lightning
shattered the sky. Sakura tried to reply over the rumble of thunder, but
she seemed to be unheard. A white flash erupted from the ground causing
the Card Mistress to shutter with a sudden fear.
The water-covered figure stepped
forward and looked down at the crab scar, "You are the one burnt with the
sign of Crab, Mother of all signs, Water yet cardinal. But you are not
the one I seek!" the voice shouted back, with a flash of lightning the
woman disappeared. The water in the lake splashed violently on the shore,
a large transparent hand grabbed the Card Mistress around her waist and
dragged her underneath the rough surface. The pain that had longed to unleash
from the burn exploded in red-hot pain. Sakura screamed at loud as she
could under the water, but the hand kept going. Her eyes blurred under
finally she passed out again.
-----
"SAKURA!!" Tomoyo screamed,
running from her hiding place in a nearby tree to her fallen friend. Syaoran
jumped to his feet and stared at the raven-haired girl who with her video
camera sat Sakura up and tried to revive her. Tomoyo looked more excited
then worried, she'd be able to record Sakura, and the emerald-eyed cheerleader
wouldn't be able to run away. An evil grin creased up her face as she adjusted
her video camera to eye and hit record.
"What are you doing?!?" Syaoran
suddenly burst out tearing the black camera out of the eccentric girl's
hand. The Chinese boy didn't realize his mistake until it was far to late.
Tomoyo slowly got to her feet, straightened her uniform with a brush of
her hand, turned to the Chinese boy and glared at him. Syaoran was on his
guard, he could sense that there was a disturbance in Daidouji's normal
energies, he nearly gasped as suddenly he felt a hint of dark magic, Tomoyo
ran at him grabbed his throat before Syaoran had a chance to blink. Normally
the amber eyed Card Captor would fight back, but if Sakura ever found out
that he'd hurt her best friend he'd never be forgiven. It was getting harder
to breath, Tomoyo didn't speak throughout this ordeal, but his weak struggling
cause a bright smile to crease up her face.
Loud footsteps began running
down the sidewalk, Tomoyo turned to see another raven-haired boy coming
closer. Dropping the Chinese boy she snatched her video camera out of his
hand, glaring quickly at her best friend's love and ran through the fountain
towards the school.
Black shined shoes stopped in
front of the fallen cherry blossom, and the Chinese wolf, sapphire eyes
looked at them in concern, "You ok?" Eriol asked offering his hand to the
gasping boy. Syaoran glared at the raven-haired boy and got up to one knee.
"We're fine," he said speaking
for the unconscious Sakura. Slowly getting to his feet, the little wolf
lifted the limp Card Captor, she was light but it would still take some
effort to carry her. Eriol walked along side of him silently opening doors
occasionally until they got Sakura up to the nurse's office.
They placed her gently in one
of the unoccupied bed, the nurse was out to lunch but there didn't appear
to be any serious trauma on the cheerleaders skin, "She just needs rest,"
Eriol said patting her head, Syaoran growled deep within his chest but
he kept it contained before striking out at the British boy. Eriol didn't
seem to notice his descendant's reaction although he knew that he was jealous
of his relationship with Sakura, he didn't try to rub it in, unless of
course the mood struck.
The two men watched over Sakura,
checking for even the slightest bit of movement, any sign that she was
coming out of what seemed to be a coma. The crab like burn was still flaming
on her chest. Being able to see Sakura's magical aura Syaoran was confused,
not glowing it's normal healthy pink but a blue mixed with swirls of white
invaded the cotton candy dome surrounding the Card Mistress.
Almost as if she'd been sent
back into their time, Sakura's eyes snapped open and she screamed a shriek
of terror. Syaoran and Eriol feel out of their chairs, and recovered before
standing back up, "Water... water everywhere." Sakura stammered looking
around for the H2O. Syaoran and Eriol gave her a rather confused look but
listened carefully to her tale.
"Do you remember a girl who
loved the sea..." Eriol repeated trying to confirm, "Sakura-san was their
only one figure that you saw in your dream." She nodded and shivered lightly.
Syaoran ran over to one of the other patient's beds and threw another blanket
over her. Sakura smiled at him and snuggled in the sheets taking a short
rest.
-----
"Why'd he collapse?" Yukito
thought stroking Toya's hair, "It's because of me.... he shouldn't have
given me his magic." Yuki had always been beating him up since that day
when Toya agreed to give him his magic so he'd remain in this world. Even
though Toya always denied any problems with giving up his magic, the Snow
Bunny was having a hard time excepting it.
"Demo..." Yuki thought after
a moment, "Toya doesn't have any magic, then how did Nakuru..." Turning
quickly into Yue, he closed his eyes and searched for magic. There was
a strong source on Toya's left hand. Slowly pulling off the small gold
band Yue glared at a small arrow burnt into his skin.
"An arrow.... ," Turning back
into Yukito he frowned at this new found evidence, "Sakura has her work
cut out for her." Slowly moving forward Yuki kissed Toya carefully on the
lips returning him to consciousness.
"Yuki.." Toya muttered attempting
to get up, refusing his attempt Yukito sat on the edge of his bed and pushed
him down into the pillows.
"You're going to stay here,
until I think you can leave." he said calmly getting up to his feet, "Now
I'm going to make you some soup, you rest." The Snow Rabbit left the room
and headed downstairs, entering the kitchen he was more concerned about
Toya then ever, "Why an arrow, why'd it have to be an arrow.." Unable to
control himself anymore he stabbed a carrot with a knife and sat down on
the Kinomoto's kitchen floor.
"I can go upstairs by myself
Syaoran." Sakura's voice broke through Yuki's thoughts, he used the counter
to lift himself to his feet and stepped into the hallway.
"Sakura-chan?" Yukito questioned
looking up at his Mistress who was being carried up the stairs like a baby,
"What are you doing home?"
Something came over Sakura,
she jumped out of Syaoran arms, leaped over the guardrail and the stairs
and shouted, "YUKI!!" hugging the surprised Snow Rabbit with all her might.
She kissed his cheek and snuggled up against him. Syaoran shot daggers
at the Rabbit with his eyes, he flushed weakly and tore her away harshly.
Sakura looked hurt, but something didn't seem right. Her eyes were glazed
over light blue, and she started crying.
"What's wrong with her?" Syaoran
asked, turning and expecting to find Yuki he jumped seeing the stern Yue
crossing his arms.
He waved his hand over Sakura's
head putting her into a magical sleep. Kneeling down Yue uncovered the
large crab burn, and stared at it weakly, "The crab and the arrow..." he
concentrated for a moment then turned the Chinese warrior, "Bring her upstairs
to her room, I'll make them some soup." Reforming his disguise Yuki walked
back into the kitchen and cropped the carrot up into little pieces.
"When did she start calling
me Yuki..." he thought heating up a pot of water, "If she calls me that
again I'll correct her.." he said out load.
"Why correct her, she's called
you that in the past.." a voice echoed through the kitchen. Yuki looked
around glaring
at every corner, the voice came back, and spoke
directly in his ear, "You do realize that your Mistress is being possessed
by Le'fay."
"I thought so myself, it's not
a surprise. But leave Toya out of this!" Yuki said quietly to where ever
the sprite was
residing.
"I'm afraid not Yue, he is also
part of out plan..." the magical sprite disappeared, Yuki tried to ignore
her words but he grew worried for Toya and darted up the stairs to see
him. Running down the hall he opened his bedroom door and looked around
for magical energy. There was none to be found, and once again his love
was asleep peacefully. Smiling weakly he shut the door carefully and continued
cooking.
::Note it's kinda a rough draft, there might be
some changes to be made, please give me some suggestions. And those of
you who think that Toya and Yuki aren't a couple feel free to e-mail me
and I'll send you translated manga proving you wrong =September 6, 2001

one of my best friends.
Card Captor Sakura
Altantis
(Al-tan-tiss)
Sakura blinked to an assertive state and
looked around strangely, all the plants and trees that surrounded
her were unfamiliar, they had sharp pointed needles, and others had massive
soft pointed leaves. A small blue light wafted around her head, it seemed
to speak to her…
"Do you remember a girl you loved the sea?"
Searching for the origin of
