Fun with the Clow Cards!!

Sakura and Tomoyo stopped looking over the Cards and over at Kero. "What did you say Kero?" Sakura asked, looking over at the floating creature. Kero looked at her. This has happened before. This is not the cards were made for. They were made to help their master, they create havoc." Kero said, sitting on the bed, looking at the cards, which were like twice his size.

"Kero? Can you tell us what you are talking about?" Tomoyo asked, looking concerned at the little beast. "It's a long story. Maybe you are going to be to scared. If Sakura's afraid of ghosts." Kero said, looking over at Sakura. Tomoyo stifled a laugh. "Just tell me." Sakura groaned, flopping back down on the bed.

"It's a long story. It was around 1996, when the cards got released from the book, in a university just like your dad's university. Her name was Chondra Ward. She was a normal girl, until she touched the book, and her magical powers were founded. She managed to capture all the cards, just like you did. She became the Clow Mistress and Yue and I protected her, until the unthinkable happened. She took the Clow Cards to school, and had some fun that you had with Tomoyo. The cards got used to this and escaped at night, and created havoc. It caused the destruction of her town, it went under that night and everyone went down, into the ocean. A few people survived the cards and us. We went back into the book and your father found us and took us to the library." Kero explained.

Sakura and Tomoyo sat there, in shock. "This happened… to Chondra? The destruction of her town?" Sakura asked, dumbfounded. Kero shook his head gravely. "Do you still think that we should do this, anymore?" Tomoyo whispered into Sakura's ear. Sakura shrugged and looked out the window. "Maybe." Sakura replied, and put the cards inside her pocket.

"Tomoyo? Do you want to watch some TV? We can watch it downstairs. I need a new TV, because Kero was mad at a video game and I need to fix it." Sakura asked. Tomoyo nodded, and got off the bed. She walked over and opened the door. Sakura followed her; "Kero. Be good, and we'll bring you some food back." Sakura said, and closed the door.

They flopped down on the couch and turned on Much Music and Sakura took the cards out. Her and Tomoyo looked at him. "Do you still think that we should do this? I mean, do we really want to have Readington pulled under, because of a few pranks?" Tomoyo asked. Sakura shook her head, "Nah, Kero's probably just making this all up. So that we wouldn't go and do this anymore." Sakura replied, making two piles of the cards. One with all the cards they had already used, and the other one containing the cards they were going to use.

"I hope your right. I don't want to be responsible for destroying the town. But…OK. I'll go around with you." Tomoyo said. "Which cards do we want to use tomorrow?" Tomoyo continued on. "I think that we should make a big storm." Sakura said, picking up a few cards from the pile and putting them onto the table. "We'll use these cards. Later on, we can use the others." Sakura replied. Tomoyo looked down at the cards.

The cards that were laying there, where…the Bubble, Cloud, Earthy, Mist, Rain, Shield, Storm, Windy, and Thunder. "A really big storm, of all the stunts." Sakura said, winking at Tomoyo. "I guess that we should be getting out early tomorrow morning before everyone gets up, before Kero gets up and squashes our plan. Also what are we going to use the Shield Card for?" Tomoyo asked, looking confused at the one card.

"Shield Card will protect us from the storm that we are creating." Sakura replied. Tomoyo smacked herself. "Duh. Why didn't I think of that." She said, and started to laugh. Touya then walked into the living room, and looked at Sakura and Tomoyo. "Dad say's if you guys want a snack you can have one, but if you don't want to, he says to go to bed." He said, and walked down the stairs and into the basement.

The two girls shook there head and walked up to their room and closed their doors. They changed into their pajamas and got into bed, and went to sleep within minutes, from their 'busy day' at school.

*~* Midnight *~*

"Tomoyo? Are you awake?" Sakura whispered, getting out of bed. "Yeah. I'm awake. Is it time yet?" She whispered back. Sakura nodded, and turned on a flashlight. Tomoyo grabbed the cards from Sakura's desk, while Sakura grabbed two housecoats from her closet. She tossed one to Tomoyo; they put them on, and opened up the bedroom window. The wind came howling into the open window. They quickly climbed out the window, and shut it.

Now this was an odd scene. Seeing it was the middle of the night and seeing two girls in pajamas standing on a roof. "Alright, so how do we get down?" Tomoyo asked, lowering herself until she was kneeling on the ground. Wind whipping around the two girls. Sakura said a phrase and the key turned into the staff. "FLY!" She shouted, and pink wings then formed on her back. She grabbed Tomoyo's arm, until they were on the ground. The wings disappeared. They ran down the street and out of sight.

*~*

They ran for awhile until they were downtown. A big seven-storied apartment was in front of them. "FLY!" Sakura shouted again, and the pink wings appeared again, and flapped until they were standing up on top of the building. The wind was still whipping around them, like it was almost trying to knock them out of the way. "What should we do now?" Tomoyo screamed over the howl of the wind.

"Shield Card!" Sakura shouted, and threw the cared up into the air, and touched her star to the card. The one wing appeared and made a shield over Sakura and Tomoyo. "That's one card down." Sakura said, and they started to laugh. Sakura then fished out the Cloud Card, and the Rain Card.

"Cloud Card! Rain Card! Cover the sky in clouds and Rain Card make Rain fall from the cloud, and don't stop until a command you." Sakura called, and touched the cards to her star. The two forms shot out and circled around each other and shot up into the sky, the starting of the storm.

Tomoyo, who was standing by the sidelines, was muttering a bunch of stuff to herself. She was taping this, like she had taped all the other mishaps so far, and she thought that this was the best yet. "This is great footage. A keepsake for when we are older." She muttered, and taping everything in sight, the beginning of the storm, down to Sakura, who was deciding which card to use next.

"Hmm… maybe the Thunder card to use next, to finish of the sky. Followed by the Mist Card and Earthy Card that can create things down on the ground. The Storm card to finish of the storm, and the bubble card to create bubbles falling from the cloud. That will make the meteor men go crazy." Sakura said. Tomoyo laughed. "Good touch Sakura. That'll be good for the tape. Sakura looked over, and realized that Tomoyo was taping this. She gasped, she hadn't seen that. But Tomoyo was obsessed with taping Sakura, who she didn't have a big problem.

"Thunder Card! Draw your power from my light, make Thunder from up in the clouds!" Sakura shouted, and touched the card to the star on her staff. The Thunder form (that looked like a wolf) appeared and jumped up through the clouds and landed on the clouds. Every time that it roared, Thunder was heard.

"Alright, now that was cool to see." Tomoyo said, filming the scene that the Thunder Card had just made. Sakura nodded. "What cards are you using?" She continued on, taping Sakura. "I was thinking maybe the Mist and Earthy Card. The Mist card can make everything Misty and the Earth Card can make some damage to place, by making extra mountains and things." Sakura said into the camera.

She then turned so she was facing out into the downtown of Readington. She took out the Mist and Earthy Card from the pile and held them in front of her. "Mist Card! Make everything Misty, so no one can see, and Earthy Card, go around making mountains." Sakura called, and touched the cards to the star. The two figures shot out, a light blue and a ground brown and went around the town. Everything was soon into a misty fog and mountains were starting to spring up all around.

"Last but not least, Bubble Card!" Sakura called into the black night picking the card up. "Bubble Card! Go up into the sky where Thunder is. Make Bubble's fall down with the rain card." Sakura called, and touched the star on the staff to the card once more. The figure shot out and into the sky, and soon bubbles were starting to come down. The two laughed, and brought the shield back in, while the sun was starting to rise.

"That was a great night. And that sun won't be up for long." Sakura said, pointing up at the sun. Tomoyo turned herself around, camera in hands, and taping the sun and the clouds. "The clouds will soon be big enough to cover up the sun. That will make for a real storm. I hope." Sakura continued on. Tomoyo nodded, and turned her tape off. Sakura called upon the Fly Card, the pink wings appeared and they flew silently down to the ground, and ran off back towards Sakura's house, only to be stopped half way.

Kero was flying over. Once he reached them, he stopped flapping his little wings and resting on Tomoyo's shoulder. He looked over at Sakura. "What are you playing at Sakura? Do you want Readington to be destroyed? This could destroy it, you never know… till it's too late." Kero said, looking up at the storm that Sakura had created. "It was too late…to late. No one could save Chondra or anyone in that city. They all perished when the city crashed into the water, and the water took over. The city now lies in the bottom of the ocean… unknown and forgotten." Kero said, shaking his head.

Tomoyo heard Kero say this. It worried her. "Is this true, Kero? What was the place called?" Tomoyo asked, in a concerned voice. "It was called Rivendell." Kero replied. Tomoyo looked confused. "I've never heard of that." She replied. "Of course you wouldn't. It went under when you were six years-old." Kero replied. "That is the fate of Readington. We must stop all these cards, before they get out of hand, and wander around, by Sakura's free will." Kero said. "Or else… Chondra's fate will await you." He continued on. Now this scared Tomoyo. She gasped. "I'm too young to die." She shrieked.

Kero looked at her. "It does not await Readington yet, but the time is coming." Kero said, in a dark voice. "I hear things." He replied. Tomoyo felt like she was going to faint. She had taped what Kero had said. Sakura then tuned into what they were saying.

"Ah. You mean that Chondra's fate will await us as well?" Sakura said, looking from Kero to Tomoyo. Kero nodded, gravely. "I have to stop those cards!" Sakura shouted into the howl of the wind, and turned around, fscing the wind, and ran off to where she had been, before.

TO BE CONTINUED…

Will the cards listen to Sakura, or will the town be destroyed like Chondra's? What will be the fates or everyone, to die or to live? Please R&R!!!
