Chapter 2: Gone...
"What's that?" asked Sakura, still looking right through the wall.
"I have no idea what's that thing. Another, where did this book come from?" said Syaoran as he bent down and examined it closely. The inscriptions are still shimmering but now, it turned to crimson. "Looks like it is a spell. I've seen writings like this in my mother's Book of Shadows." Syaoran added.
"We better ask somebody." Sakura suggested.
"But who?"
"Who else but Eriol-kun. I think he knows a lot about spells and stuffs." advised Sakura.
"Good idea! So where should we start?"
Just as Sakura started to speak, the phone rang from the living room. Sakura immediately went up to answer it while Syaoran is still examining the text.
"Moshi moshi. Kinomoto Residence." Sakura answered politely, "Who's this?"
"Sakura-chan, what happened? I felt something wrong happened!"
It was Eriol, his voice a little bit shaky.
"Nothing's wrong, I'm just cleaning our basement and found a strange book." Sakura replied.
"What book?" he retorted, which made Sakura confused.
"Is there something you want to tell?" Sakura said as she made her way through the staircase toward the basement.
"Quick! Look at the book."
"OK! The book's shabby, covered by faded, brown leather, and-" she looked intently on the cover.
"And what?" Eriol asked in an exaggerated tone.
"There are figures stamped on the cover. Four triangles, two inverted, two uprights, and the two seems to have a tail. In the middle, there is a star- no, it looks more like two trialngles, yes, a star of David!" Sakura described in detail.
Eriol whispered something. It's about the book or something, but she was startled when Eriol suddenly spoke.
"Hurry, go find Yue-san, bring the book with you, and I'll meet you all in my house."
*Beep-beep*
Eriol hang up. What's the matter with him?
Syaoran stood up, "Is there something wrong, Sakura-chan?"
"I think..."
They immediately called Touya to inform Yukito on what happened, but Yukito already left, maybe he sensed it like Eriol did.
Then the doorbell rang. Sakura said goodbye to his onii-chan and put down the phone. It is Yukito standing on the doorsteps, panting and looking very tired. "Yue- san-said I- have to be- here."
The three, looking extremely confused, marched toward the corner and got on to Syaoran's car. Sakura clutched the book in her hands. They made their way through the winding steets towards Eriol's house on the hill. Sakura's still totally puzzled. What's wrong?
Eriol already arrived when they got there. They went in. Nothing much have change in the house.
They went inside a room, found the familiar-looking wingback chair. The fireplace instantly lit up with a swish of Eriol's hand.
"Yue, come here." Eriol commanded. He was already seated on his chair.
Yukito, having heard these, went unconscious and in less than a second, Yue was standing amongst them.
"Do you still remember that book?" asked Eriol pointing at the book Sakaura was holding.
"Yes, it was the same book Kitsune used eighty-two years ago. He's practicing Dark Magic, but was shortly killed by human witch hunters." Yue narrated.
Sakura is still confused. So was Syaoran.
"Then where is this book used?" Syaoran inquired.
"For calling on the Sleeping Child, the one who gives eternal life and power to the one who awakes it, if they want to." Yue responded. "Let me see that book."
Yue placed the book on the antique center table. He examined it closely. He touched it and it automatically opened to the page of the passage written in shimmering red.
"You two have already read this?" Yue asked, demanding for an answer.
"Y-Yes." The two answered in unison.
Yue and Eriol were flushed with terror. Their shadows are flickering across the room. Syaoran and Sakura are still perplexed; they don't know how to react.
"So what we read it, nothing's wrong." Sakura pointed out.
"Nothing's wrong? Now Kitsune, the High priest is reincarnated. The spell you read is the counter-spell for the Imprisonment Spell the witch hunters cast on him. We have no idea who can be the new High Priest." Said a trembling Yue.
"One thing is for sure, he returned to continue his plan, destroying the world." Added Eriol.
"We're very sorry. We didn't mean to." Syaoran pleaded.
"Yes, we'll do anything to stop that from happening." Sakura continued.
Then, Sakura's cell phone rang. From the caller ID, she knew it was Chiharu. She answered.
"Hai, Chiharu-chan?"
"S-Sa-Sakura-chan? H-Help me! Ta-Takashi-k-kun i-is g-gone..." Chiharu was sobbing so hard that it was difficult to understand what she was saying.
"Chiharu-chan, calm down, what's wrong?" Sakura said with her coolest voice.
"I-I w-was w-walk-king w-with Ta-Takashi-kun in t-the pa-park, then I-I s-saw t-the b-black wi-wind l-lifted hi-him, th-then h-he d-disa-appeared!" Chiharu recounted, then her tears burst out.
"What, Yamazaki-kun is gone?" Sakura nearly shouted off.
