Returning Powers or Not?

Chapter 8: Eriol's Magic Plan

I opened up the library door and saw Eriol along with Sakura waiting for us. The two had been talking about something but had looked up when we had entered. Sakura had looked slightly sad while Eriol had a secretive look. I was unsure if I should ask them what it was about but I had a feeling they would tell me soon.

"Are you two ready to proceed?" Eriol asked quietly.

I looked at Yue and he nodded.

"Yes we are ready."

Eriol turned around and grabbed one of the books on the shelf. The bookcase opened up to reveal a secret door that led to another room. He motioned for us to follow him and we entered a room that had a magic circle with the sun, moon and stars in the center. There was strange symbol on the walls that appeared to be in Chinese, English, and Japanese.

Sakura looked over at Eriol and asked, "What is this room?"

"This is the place were I practiced my magic and did research. It's a shield room so whatever I did in here did not get out to the outside world."

"So is this were you are going to find out what is wrong with Touya?"

Everyone glanced over at Yue and I noticed he had that cold look in his eyes. I had a feeling that he was hiding his emotions behind that mask of his and I bet everyone else knew as well.

"Yes Yue this is were I will begin. Touya if you could kneel in the center of the circle we will began. Yue and Sakura please do not step into the circle nor interfere in anyway."

They both nodded in agreement. I walked into the center of the circle and watched as Yue and Sakura stood against the wall. Eriol slowly walked up to me and smiled at me in reassurance.

"You may feel slightly odd at first but everything will be ok. I just need to check your powers and see what is up with them."

I nodded slowly and closed my eyes. Eriol hand felt cool when it touched my forehead and I felt his magic slide into me. It felt oddly pleasant and warm. When he removed his hand I felt slightly odd and slowly opened my eyes. Everything glowed slightly and it was just weird. I looked up at Eriol and noticed that he had a worried expression.

"What is it Eriol?" Sakura asked.

Eriol let out a tired sigh before resting his hand on my shoulder. He glanced over at Sakura and Yue.

"Its just as I thought, Touya's powers have grown and are unstable."

Yue walked to just the edge of the circle and was gazing at Eriol.

"What do you mean by that?"

"It means that the spell you used on him to have his powers to live is causing his powers to go out of control. If this continues then Touya might die."

I let out a slight sigh and finally understood what my mother meant when she told me I would figure out what was up with my powers.

"No I won't let him die!"

My head shot up and I glanced over at Yue. His wings were half opened and there were tears sliding down his face. Sakura had gripped on one of his hands and was looking at him worriedly.

"Everything will be okay Yue, right Eriol?" she asked.

Eriol was silent for a moment and appeared deep in thought. I felt him grip my shoulder and then release me. He glanced down at me and his blue eyes twinkled slightly.

"Yes Sakura everything will be fine. Yue please come here and kneel in front of Touya."

Yue looked confused but he walked over to us. He knelt in front of me and looked into my brown eyes. There was so much pain in his silver eyes and guilt. I raised my hand and cupped his chin gently.

"Yue don't you dare blame yourself. It was my decision to give you my powers and I don't regret any of it."

I watched as more tears spilled from Yue's eyes and he slowly nodded.

"Okay Touya I know it's just that I feel so responsible."

"Well don't."

Leaning forward I kissed him softly on the lips and wiped the tears from his face. When I pulled away Yue was smiling at me and I smiled back. We both glanced up at Eriol when he placed his hands on both of our shoulders.

"Let's begin ok. Sakura stand at the edge of the circle and raise your star staff."

Sakura nodded her head and released her staff. She raised the star staff in the air and waited for Eriol to tell her what to do.

"Sakura as soon as I start I want you to repeat everything I say."

"Alright."

Eriol released his sun staff and looked down at us.

"I want you two to cross your arms and hold each other hands. Close your eyes and relax. It may feel odd at first while I fix Touya's power problem."

"Will Yue still be okay?"

Eriol smiled at me and nodded.

"He will be more then fine and you will be able to support him and also use your powers again."

I felt excited and looked at Yue. He was watching me but still seemed unsure. I winked at him and watched as he slowly smiled. Yue and I closed our eyes and waited for it to begin.

I listened as both Sakura and Eriol began to speak.

"Oh sun and moon and stars hear me. I wish to help the ones who kneel before me. Please help me with this task at hand."

Soon I could not hear them anymore as magic began to fill me and I felt Yue tighten his hands. Everything soon grew quiet and I felt myself slip into darkness.
