Chapter 5 - The Big Appearance

~Tonight, tonight is the night~ Taeia looked into the mirror as she brushed her long dark blue hair. She couldn't help but smirk evilly ~Tonight is the night Ming and I would make our big appearance. Look out Cardcaptor gang, your going to be in for a big surprise ~

"Breakfast's ready" Ming's head popped into the doorway

"Coming" she replied
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Sakura, Syaoran, Eriol, and Tomoyo are walking to school as usual. It was a Friday, with the sunny weather shining through.

Ever since the Little Wolf and the Cherry Blossom confessed their love to each other two weeks ago, they cannot stand to be apart even for a minute. Tomoyo is currently busy with taping the couple.

"Kawaii!!" she shouted as she watched the couple through her camera lenses.

Everyone sweat dropped anime style.

Suddenly a silver blur shot pass the gang and imbedded itself in the trunk of a nearby tree, missing Sakura by half an inch. The 'silver blur' turns out to be a silver colored arrow with a message tied to it.

Almost in union, the four people turn to gaze where the arrow flew form, but no one was there.

Eriol pull the arrow out of the tree. Syaoran, Sakura and Tomoyo gather around him to read from it also.

"It said 'To the Card Mistress, the Little Wolf, the Reincarnation of Clow Reed, and the Amethyst-eyed girl," Eriol read out loud "Penguin Park. Six o'clock sharp. If you want to know who we are and our purpose here, be there."

"Who ever wrote this know exactly who we are" Syaoran's got his usual scowl back once again.

"Should we go?" Sakura asked, a frown settled on her brows

"We should, just to find out who they are and what do they want from us" Eriol replied

"I don't want to see you hurt, Sakura," Syaoran took his love's hands into his own "but I think he's right for once"

"Finally, some action to tape!" Tomoyo exclaimed, "I haven't tape those since Eriol-kun's big appearance"

Everyone sweat dropped once again.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The four friends wasn't aware of the two figures on a near by rooftop.

"That shot is just perfect! It landed near Sakura enough to be threatening and get their attention, but not near enough to hurt anybody" Taeia complimented Ming who shot the arrow

"Thank you" the brown-haired replied

"I do love being mysterious" Taeia acquired her evil smirk once again

"You know you look just like your Otousan (father) when you do that" Ming shuddered, that trademark smirk of hers always give him the creeps.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
"Konnechiha, Sakura-chan, Syaoran-kun, Eriol-kun, Tomoyo-chan" the blue-eyed girl and the green-eyed boy greeted the four when they came into the classroom.

"Konnechiha, Ming-kun, Taeia-chan" Tomoyo replied smiling to her new friends as she sat down in her seat.

Over the past couple of weeks, they had become quiet close with the two new exchange students, all except Syaoran that is.

"I can see why that the four of you are such close friends," Taeia said "your always doing things together"

"You and Ming-kun always doing every thing together too" Eriol piped up, almost with a teasing under tone in his statement.

The two teenagers looked at each other, then smiled

"I guess that's true" Taeia realized

"Yeah, we're practically brothers and sisters" Ming filled in.

"Do you think Taeia-chan and Ming-kun look¡­ somewhat familiar?" Tomoyo quietly said to her three friends so that the two exchange students couldn't hear

"Now that you mention it, they do," Eriol replied "but I couldn't quiet put my finger on it"

"If you ask me, Taeia look a lot like Hiiragizawa here," Syaoran join the conversation "even the same blue hair and eyes. Are you sure you don't have a imouto(younger sister) you didn't know about?"

"Yes, I'm pretty sure the last time I checked," Eriol replied, "come to think of it, Ming-kun looks a lot like you, cute descendant"

"Me?" Syaoran frowned at the thought

Before he can reply the teacher walked in and started the lesson.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syaoran checked his watch, it shown 5:45PM.

Sakura was wearing the custom that Tomoyo made for her when she turns the last Clow card to a Star card. The amber-eyed boy was in his green traditional Li Clan ceremonial robe. Eriol, of course was wearing his sorceress robe and boat hat. Tomoyo made sure she took plenty of tape and batteries for her camcorder. The band of four made their way to the park.
--------------------------------------------------------------
"Are you ready?" Ming and Re waited for Taeia in the doorway

Taeia tucked a strand of loose hair behind her ear and walked down stairs.

"You look¡­stunning" Ming gave her a lopsided smile

"Thank you" the girl blushed a little and gestured to her sorceress robe. "Okaasan (mother) made it for me, she said to wear it on special occasions."

"It's show time" The two shared a smile before heading out the door.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Syaoran checked his watch again, it reads 5:59PM. Almost time. They had arrived a few minuets ago.

Suddenly, he sensed two magical auras. The boy turns to tell everyone, but they all sensed it. A powerful gust of wing start to blow, when it was over, it revealed two figures in the shadow.

"Who are you?" Eriol spoke up

"We don't mean harm to anyone" said one of the figures

"How can we be sure of that?" Syaoran grabbed the hilt of his sword fearing of a sudden attack.

"If we want to hurt any of you," The figure said as she step out of the shadows "then we would have done it two weeks ago"

Ming, Taeia, and Re stepped out. Ming was dressed in a green robe much like Syaoran's. Re is fully transformed; her true form is a white tiger with amber eyes. She has snow-white wings like Cerberus and a turquoise colored stone rests in the middle of her fore head. Taeia wore a navy blue robe that matched her hair; it has silver stars sewed on the collar and edges. She has her hair up in two buns (picture Meilin's hair without the tails) tied with a white ribbon.

"Taeia-chan? Ming-kun?" Sakura cannot believe what she saw

"I knew they cannot be trusted" Syaoran pulled his sword out of its scabbard

"Before you decided to chop us to pieces, Syaoran-kun" Taeia put her hands up in a gesture of peace "Can we please explain?"

Syaoran reluctantly put the sword back into the scabbard.

"How about we go back to our apartment, and do the explaining there?" Ming suggested "Don't worry, it's not a trap"

The group followed Ming and Taeia to their apartment
