The Battle For The Cards
Revelations Revealed
Li watched in horror as Sakura screamed in pain. None of them were successful at breaching the force field. Sakura was kneeling, head thrown back. He felt as helpless as Meilin and Madison.
Suddenly, there was a swirl of mist and beside him stood five people wearing long black robes. They wore equal looks of horror. One girl with brown and slightly bushy hair ran up to him.
"What did he say to her?" she asked frantically.
Not caring whom the strangers were, Li replied. "Something like 'crucio'."
"We have to stop him," she replied, determinedly.
She brought out a wand and pointed it at the figure.
"Wingardium Leviosa!" she cried.
The figure lost concentration and rose high into the air. Li realized that she needed help so he pulled out an element.
"Element Wind!" he yelled, pushing the scroll with his sword. A whirlwind emerged and projectilled the figure far away. Li ran forward to catch Sakura. She was still weak from the attack. Meilin went forward with three boys to lift Sakura to the park bench. Li looked over to see Madison talking to the two girls.
Li turned back to Sakura. "Sakura. Are you still in pain?"
Sakura struggled to speak. "I'm not in pain any more."
Li put his arms around her and closed his eyes. He nearly lost his most dear girlfriend. Someone tapped his shoulder. It was Madison.
"Uh, Li?"
"Yeah, Madison?" he replied
"Let me introduce the Nine," she said as she gestured to the whole group.
"You mean…they fill the prophecy?" he asked, still holding Sakura.
"Yes," Sakura whispered. She turned to the one with messy brown hair and green eyes. "Hello Harry."
"Hello Sakura," he replied with unusual recognition.
The brown-haired girl came up to Sakura and waved her wand. Instantly, Sakura sat up with ease.
"I guess we should all be introduced," Madison said, stepping into the circle around Sakura. "These are the five other members of the Nine."
"I am Hermione Granger," said the brown-haired girl.
"I am Virginia Weasley, but call me Ginny," said the young red head.
Another boy with red hair, probably her older brother, stepped forward. "I am Ron Weasley."
"I am Draco Malfoy," added the tall white-blonde haired boy.
"And I am Harry Potter," the green-eyed boy said as he extended a hand to Li. He shook it and introduced himself.
"I am Li Shoran," he introduced, "This is my cousin Meilin Rae," he continued, indicating the black pigtailed girl.
"I am Sakura Avalon," Sakura uttered.
"And I am Madison Taylor," Madison said as she sat down at Sakura's feet.
"Anyone care to explain what we are doing here?" Draco remarked in slightly drawling voice.
"The Prophecy," Li replied.
"What prophecy?" Hermione asked, concerned.
" 'When the youngest Card Captor finishes the Final Judgement, time will accelerate till the Chosen Four number 15 years of age. Nine will defeat the Darkness, Ten will bring peace at last.' That is why you are here. We are to defeat the darkness," he explained.
"This is all a bit much," Meilin confessed, "Maybe we should sleep on it."
They all nodded. Sakura talked next.
"We will all meet at Madison's tomorrow morning, okay?" she asked Li.
"Where are we going to stay?" Ron inquired after being silent all the while.
Sakura scratched her temple in though. Then her face brightened.
"Li, can you house Harry, Ron and Draco?"
"Yeah, sure," he answered.
"Ginny and Hermione can stay with me!" Sakura finished brightly.
At first the five were a bit skeptical about splitting up but eventually said goodbye. Harry and Hermione gave each other a quick peck on the lips. Draco gave Ginny a long pash while Li and Sakura hugged tightly.
"Goodnight!" they called as they went their separate ways.
Two hours later…
Sakura led Ginny and Hermione up to her bedroom. Her dad was okay with them staying over for a few days. He was a bit suspicious of their robes though. Up in Sakura's room, Sakura rummaged around her cupboard for some suitable clothes for the two other fifteen year old girls. The three fell asleep getting to know each other.
*~*~*~*~*~*
Li was in his room after explaining to Wei about the Nine being united. Of course Wei was fine with it. Li was now rummaging around his cupboard for clothes for the three boys. They would be staying in his room. The four boys also fell asleep talking to each other.
*~*~*~*~*~*
The next day at Madison's house, they all got their questions sorted out. They found out that the five could understand Japanese because of their role in the Prophecy. They met Kero properly and were informed about the Clow Cards and the figure.
The Chosen Four found out that the other five were witches and wizards that go to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in England. They were informed about Voldemort and Harry's past.
*~*~*~*~*~*
Albus Dumbledore sat in his office, terribly worried. Five of his students had disappeared suddenly and the families were very worried. Albus began to pace around his office.
'They could be hurt or dead,' he thought tiredly, 'What shall we do?'
There was a pop and a letter appeared on Albus' desk. Carefully, he picked up the letter and began to read.
Dear Albus,
It has been a long time since we have talked but this letter is on business.
Do you remember many years ago, I made a prediction about the Chosen Four, the Nine and the Ten? Well, I believe that you are missing five students. Make up the Nine with the Clow Mistress and the rest of the Chosen Four.
Do not be worried. They will return once the second part of the Prophecy is fulfilled.
Regards.
Clow Reed
Albus felt an enormous wave of relief was over him.
'Japan, eh?' he thought to himself, 'Now that would be an interesting change. I must contact their families immediately. But I cannot tell them about Clow Reed. No.'
