Me: well, I've decided that YOU should pick.
Foxie: yea! send your votes to Memory at Neko8642@homestead.com
Me: okay, well, when there are these little things *...* around quotes, that means they are talking in English, kk?
Foxie: good, Memory...they'll REALLY understand that.
Me: well it's not like YOU DID! *Towers over Foxie menacingly*

The two creatures gawked at each other, Kero with his face a few inches away from the others. Sakura glanced at Kero questioningly, and for the first time looked at the other. It was a dark red color, while it's mane (of sorts) and large bushy tail were made out of flames. It had large orange eyes, which were now staring a Kero. On it's hindquarters was a black moon shape, and on it's forepaws were four black stripes - two on each leg. It was no bigger then Kero It's eyes were wide, and in a light voice, it spoke.
"Kero?" They watched his golden head nod.
"Kirei?" Kero asked in response. It nodded. There was silence for a while, then at the same time, they shrieked, "I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S YOU!!!!" And embraced each other in a hug.
"You...KNOW each other?" Syaoran asked. They nodded "Oohhhh...my life couldn't get any worse..." he sighed.
"Of course it could!" Kacie said. They looked at her questioningly. "Erol could send some more stuffed animals after you all..." she said smartly, causing everyone but her and Kirei to sweatdrop. "What?"
"Nevermind...he TOLD you about that?" Tomoyo questioned as the four of them sat down. Kero and Kirei talked in a corner, occasional laughter erupting from where they were.
"Yeah. He left for a while, and when he came back and I asked him WHY he left, all he said was something about sending stuffed animals after 'my warrior and his friends'." Syaoran blushed when hearing Kacie's pet name for him - "my warrior."
"Hoe, he couldn't keep his mouth shut for more then a minute, could he?" Sakura smiled.
"Well of course not. He's Erol!" Tomoyo chuckled.
"So, Kacie, what have you been doing over these past...what is it? Ten years?" Syaoran asked.
"Nothing, of course. Brushing up on the usual 'magic skills'...and then, of course, there's the whole deal with the unknown clow cards..." she said nonchalantly. This got their attention.
"Unknown clow cards?" Sakura said, raising an eyebrow. Syaoran looked as if cold water had just been thrown in his face and Tomoyo just kinda looked at them. Kacie raised her eyebrows.
"You DON'T KNOW about the unknown clow cards?!?" (A/N: ironic, ne?) she asked, as if it was the most horrible thing in the world. They shook their heads 'no'. She sighed. "Aah, well, Clow reed actually made a second set of clow cards in case one set was destroyed. Makes sense so far, yes?" they shook their heads 'yes.' "Well, my cat found it and managed to paw opened the book. As you can guess, the cards escaped. The guardian spirit Kirei entered my cat, you remembering me telling you about Kirei, right, Syaoran?"
"Yes, you told me that your cat looked like that..." he motioned to Kirei. "and that he could...TALK... but you never told me HOW or WHY he was how he was..."
"Well I didn't KNOW whether to tell you or not...anyway, he named me captor of this set of cards. Well, you can imagine how hard it was for us to keep this little secret from Erol, so Kirei managed to find a way to change from my cat to himself and hide his magic. This is my sealing wand." She showed them a necklace with a whitish gem at the end. "So far we've got forty-five of the fifty-one cards (A/N: is that right? Fifty-one cards? Eh, you know what I mean, right?). That's one of the reasons we're here. The rest of them have come to Japan." She dragged off, finishing. Sakura let out a small "hoe" before speaking.
"They are EXACTLY like the clow cards?"
"No, actually, they have twice as much power...I think...that's right, Kirei? Twice as much?" She looked at her little guardian, both of which had just joined them.
"Not quite as much, but there are different as well as the same cards, and they have very different ways of attacking."
"Like how?" Asked Tomoyo.
"Well, for example, the sleep card enters peoples bodies to put them to sleep, and there is no "lock" card. Instead there is a "love" card. Both of which we have yet to catch..."
"I think I remember clow saying something about a second set of cards once...he said he couldn't duplicate some of the cards, so he just made new ones..."
"That makes sense..." Tomoyo said...they all agreed.
"Yeah, well...Hey! How bout we have a decent lunch!" Syaoran suggested.
"Yeah! I could make my specialty!" Kacie giggled. Meling looked a Syaoran. Syaoran looked at Meling. They both looked at Kacie.
"Oh no, blondie. You're not cooking MY food!" Meling said. Kacie sweatdropped.
"That's all right. Me and Tomoyo will cook." Sakura suggested.
"Oh thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou!" Meling called after them as they walked into Syaoran's kitchen. Syaoran sweatdropped.
"HEY! I'm not THAT bad, am I?" Kacie asked, with mock annoyance. The two cousins just looked at her.
"FFFIIIIIINNNNNNNNEEEEE!" she groaned. Then, back to Syaoran, "*So, Syaoran, you still know your English?*"
"*Like I could forget days of training 'in that English category'. Besides YOU were teaching me! You would beat me into the ground if I forgot.*" she chuckled, then seeing Melings confused look, went back to talking in Japanese.
"Eh, maybe we should stick to this language." Kacie sweatdropped. Meling nodded.
"Hey guys!" Sakura called from the kitchen. They all looked up. "Dinner's ready!"
~*~*~*~*~
"Wow, Sakura. You still know how to make the BEST disserts." Kero sighed, leaning back against a pillow.
"Kero-chan, it's always disserts with you, isn't it?" she asked, not really expecting him to answer. Out of nowhere, a sudden chill filled the air. She rubbed her arms, then looked across at Kacie, who suddenly seemed very interested in the closed windows.
Suddenly, the windows flew open, and a large gust of wind filled the room. Some sort of force pushed Sakura from her seat, and into the closet, locking it behind her. Everyone stood up, unsure of what just happened. They heard a bit of rustling, then an ear-piercing scream that could only be from an injured Sakura. Sobs of pain came from the closet, and each of the five not in the closet attempted to open it. Another scream, another crash, then all was silent.
Sayoran stood in shock.
"SAKURA!!!"
