The Quest of Floreata

1 By: Blazing_Angel

"Where are we?" asked Tomoyo as they found themselves in a very confusing dimension with many shapes and colors of every size. There were books, guns, clothes, Barbies, and several other things that they, the Card Captor Sakura team, recognized. There were several other things, such as humongous amoboeia things or rocks that looks like diamond and amber mixed together which smells like perfume and yucky gym socks both at the same time, that the team didn't think could ever exist anywhere or just didn't think about. They were staring for half an hour at the weird place..well, except for Eriol and Meilin.

"We," announced Eriol slowly, "are in Dimension Zero. It is a place where the Big Bang has not reached yet. Only ideas exist in here. Do any of you see a rose petal?"

"No," was the reply from everyone else, besides Meilin who was putting something on her hair.

"Well, keep looking! We can't get to Floreata without one!" said Eriol who had been busy looking for the rose petal.

"Wacha doin' everyone?!" said Meilin after 15 minutes.

"WHAT IS THAT THING IN YOUR HAIR?!?!?!?!?" growled Eriol, who usually never- wait, NEVER- got angry.

"Do ya like it? I found it in this place! It was floating past me and I thought it was really pretty so I put it in my hair," replied Meilin, oblivious to Eriol's "unusual" tone of voice.

"WHY YOU LITTLE--#%&$@*!" growled Eriol as he pounced on Meilin and started punching. Everyone else sweatdropped.

"What he is TRYING to say is that that rose petal in your hair was what we have been looking for, for the past 45 minutes," said Sakura calmly.

"Oops," said Meilin in a VERY small voice.

"You know, you should really try to pay more attention to what other people do," said Tomoyo.

"Well, SOME people pay TOO MUCH attention to what other people do," replied Meilin between ducking and blocking punches while giving Tomoyo a glare indicating that what she said meant HER. Tomoyo sweatdropped and grew little beady eyes.

"Whatever," she huffed.

"Okay everyone," said Eriol as he finished TRYING to beat Meilin up. He had only hit her once on her lower arm. "Just touch this rose once and say 'transport' and you will be in Floreata. WAIT until all of us gets there. Do NOT go off anywhere by yourself. It'll only take 5 minutes to get everyone there so just be patient. Remember, wait for the Guardian Beasts too. I will go last. Sakura, you're up first."

After everyone got a turn, including Eriol, they started the journey that will change their whole life. Who knows what will happen next, but somehow, some way, they WILL pass this test. For their hearts were filled with determination just like Heaven is filled with love.

"Ouch, Ouch, OUCH!!!!!" screamed Meilin as they passed through a thicket of thorns.

"Shut. Up. Mei. Lin," said Syaoran as he pit his lip on each syllable, fighting the pain his own way.

The Guardian Beasts were flying overhead. They did not talk since they got here. They merely looked down to see if the four people were doing okay. Except Kero. He asked for pancakes. Yue gave him a death glare and Kero shut up.

"What's up with the silent treatment?" said Tomoyo to the Guardian Beasts. She was worrying about them, especially Ruby Moon and Ceroberos, who usually can never shut up. Ruby Moon replied.

"We are afraid that if we talk, something might slip out. We are forbidden to say anything about this quest, only to help you get around and use our magic to get roses and protect you."

"And I just have nothing TO slip out. I have an erased memory. Remember? Or did they erase your memory too?" said Ceroberos sarcastically.

"You did say you can help us get around. Why didn't you, HELP US GET AROUND?!?!?!?!?" Syaoran practically screamed.

"Why didn't YOU tell us, Eriol?" said Meilin. Her little beady eyes glittered with wickedness.

"Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....I forgot?." replied Eriol nervously.

"YOU ARE SO DEAD!!!!!!!" yelled Sakura. She was covered with scratches and Eriol was not on her good side right now.

"Key of the Star,

with powers burning bright,

reveal the staff,

and shine your light.

Release!



Fight Card,

Release and Dispel!

Give me the strongest fighting ability you've got!

Power Card

Release and Dispel!

Give me power!"

"Payback time," said Meilin as he launched a super kick at Eriol.

"I'M GOING TO GET YOU!" growled Syaoran. He was also covered in scratches and his lip was bleeding from his biting.

"Sources of light

With ancient spin

Send forth the magic power within

Oracles of gold, wind, water and electricity

Force, know my plight

Release the light!

Fire!

He released an energy card and sent a blast toward Eriol.

"Well sorry. I didn't mean to forget. Geez, its only been about one hundred years! How could I EVER forget ANYTHING in that time period!

"I call upon the powers of the day and the night.

Sun and darkness, unleash your might.

Release!

Shield!"

A big shield surrounded Eriol as the attacks came. Tomoyo blinked and a sweatdrop appeared.

"Uh, shouldn't we be moving on instead of fighting Eriol? I mean, we only have seven months." said Tomoyo. When no one listened, she yelled, "HELLO!!!!! SHOULDN'T WE BE SAVING OUR ENERGY ON THE QUEST INSTEAD OF EACH OTHER?!?!?!?"

"You know, she has a point there.." said Sakura. They all broke away from Eriol's shield. He had his "innocent" grin back. Syaoran and Meilin sighed in regret and Tomoyo sighed in relief. Sakura sweatdropped.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * *

They are now FLYING on a Guardian Beast. Though not after a big argument over who gets who. See, Syaoran had this thing on making enemies. He has a list:

Yue- Final Judgment

Spiniel Sun & Ruby Moon- Eriol's Guardians

Ceroberos- Death Glares

Finally, Sakura let Syaoran use the fly card. Not the one where he uses the wand but the kind where he grows wings. Since Kero didn't need to carry anyone, he helped himself to some pancakes in Sakura's backpack. Eriol is riding on Spiniel Sun, Tomoyo is riding with Yue, and Sakura is riding with Ruby Moon. Finally with the arguing resolved, the team prepared themselves for a ride, not knowing that the carrying Guardians were preparing themselves for a LOOOOOOONNNNGGGG ride. Or, at least until the team figured out and got the rose so that the thicket would end. They knew that the thicket would never end unless they got the gray rose. That was the rose of Illusion.

Review!!!!!!!!! I think that I will be writing 20 or more chapters so.Read On!!!!!!!!!
