Chapter 2: Morning Strolls for Contemplation
Sakura strapped on her rollerblades and went skating under the cherry trees.
"So Mitsuki-sensei's the figure in my dream. I knew I recognized her. I wonder if I should talk to her in person about it. I want to know whether she has any ties to the Clow Cards and Clow Reed or whether she just has visions. Maybe I should ask Li-kun..." Then Sakura remembered the previous night's events. "Why would I want to ask him? I don't have any powers, right?" Sakura wiped away the hot tears that formed in her eyes. She was glad Toya had to leave early because she didn't want him to worry about her.
Syaoran walked down the sidewalk by the waterway. The sun was just rising and very few people were awake and driving, so it was still pretty quiet. He was trying to uncover the meaning of his dream.
"I know this is a premonition, it has to be. I never have dreams that aren't. If that's true, Sakura's in trouble. I've got to keep an eye on her. She's still probably going to be mad at me...I really was rash with her last night. I can't believe I let my temper get away from me again!" Syaoran banged his fist against the wall of the walkway. His fierce temper often flared high when he was worried. It caused him to say things he really didn't mean.
The card they faced the night previous, the Drain Card, was an extremely powerful card. It could have drained all of Sakura's magical powers, or worse, all of her life energy. Its true form varied from a gigantic leech to a house-sized vampire bat, depending on the amount of energy it required to sustain itself at that time. It appeared as a leech to Sakura and Syaoran. Sakura had made a few careless mistakes around it, mistakes that could have given the Clow Card an opening to attack. In fact, Sakura fell fast after a jump, and Syaoran had to dash in front of her and defend her with his sword. She finally managed to seal the leech by using the Shadow Card and Thunder Card simultaneously. That was when Syaoran started spouting off and yelling at her. The part Syaoran regretted.
Syaoran realized that it must have been getting close to time for him to be at school. The traffic was getting heavier and the sun had risen. Syaoran turned around and headed home to change into his uniform.
Please respond! I love feedback, positive or negative! There are several more chapters to come.
