Chapter 15 - A Girl Like Me

~Ming-kun¡­I miss you, you know that?~ Taeia sat on the ledge of the balcony, glancing at the stars that hung in the inky sky ~Even though you don't love me in that way, I'll still love you¡­no matter what~

"Taeia, don't worry" the sun guardian spoke softly behind her "he'll come back"

"I know" The girl smiled lightly "Good night, Re"

"'night" The little animal clicked the lights shut

Taeia climbed into the bed and pull the covers to her chin. She snuggles into her pillow and slowly let gentle sleep over take her.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
(Plalace)

The Mage sat poised on his large armchair. He leaned back and folded his hands together in an I'm-thinking manner. The corner of his lips quirked to form a leer upon his face.

"Sleep tight, dear girl" The Mage mused "because tomorrow¡­a surprise will be waiting¡­and I will have my share of laughs"

Just then, Ming knocked on the door "You requested tea?"

"Ah, yes" The Mage took the cup filled with jasmine tea

It was then that Ming noticed the image of Taeia by the Reflection Pool. The pool was a water surface which the Mage use as an outlook to the outside world.

"Missing your beloved?" the silver-eyed young man chuckled "go ahead, look if you wish"

Ming silently gazed to Taeia's sleeping form.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
(Taeia's room)

Unknown that anyone is watching her, Taeia shifted in her slumber. Her has her hair fanned out in disarray and eyebrows set in a slight frown. The blanket lay in a chaotic bundle by the foot of the bed, exposing her lithe form. A thin sheet sweat covered her creamy skin and her breathing came in laboriously.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Palace)

"Don't you dare hurt her" Ming wheeled on the black-haired boy

"Don't worry, I won't do anything to your precious" the Mage answered, "She's only part of the plan. A mere pawn, you could say"

"You think this is all a game?" the amber-haired boy narrowed his eyes

"Precisely, and I'm after the king" The Mage smirked "Go now, you've irritated me enough today."

With a last threatening glare, Ming left.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Hiiragizawa Manor)

~I feel kind of different today, in a strange way~ Eriol has gotten out of bed ~maybe I'm still half asleep~

He stretched a little put on his glasses and went down stairs.

"Good morning, master" A little black panther-like animal greeted him, before its eyes went round as a saucer "m-m-master?"

"What is it Spinel?" Eriol inquired at his guardian's strange behavior "What's the matter?"
------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Syaoran's apartment)

~I'm so glad that today's Saturday~ the Little Wolf opened his eyes and sat up in bed

He ran a hand through his untidy long hair ~Wait a minute! Long hair? I don't have long hair!!~

With this thought, the amber-haired youth raced to the bathroom. What he saw send his jaw to the ground and eyes popping.

(Sakura's)

The phone rang loudly

"Moshi, moshi, Kinomoto residence" Sakura picked up the phone

"Sakura?" A voice on the other line answered

"May I ask who this is?" The card captor inquired

"It's Syaoran" The voice answered

"Syao-kun, your voice-" The girl began

"I know. Sakura you have to come right away." Syaoran's voice filled with urgency

"Is something wrong?" The cherry blossom became worried

"We'll talk"

"Alright" Sakura hung up the phone and proceed to her boyfriend's house.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Tomoyo's)

There was a knock on the door.

One of the servants open it.

"I'm here to see Tomoyo-chan" Outside stood a young girl. Her long navy blue locks hung loosely around her shoulders. Her indigo blue-eyes filled with confusion lay hidden beneath her wire-framed glasses. She panted a little, obvious to the fact that she was in a rush to get here.

"Who is it?" Tomoyo walked down stairs, once she saw who it was, her hand flew to her mouth "Oh my¡­"

"I was hoping you would recognize me" The stranger sigh in relief

"Of course I would" Tomoyo approach the girl "Why don't we talk in the kitchen, Eriol¡­um¡­chan"

"Not funny" She gave the violet-eye girl a glare
---------------------------------------------------------------------
(Syaoran's)

Sakura knocked on the door and was quickly grabbed by a hand into the apartment.

The cherry blossom was momentarily shocked.

A teen girl stood in front of her. She has chocolate brown hair up to the nape of her neck and amber eyes.

"Who are you and where is Syaoran?"

"I'm right here, Sakura-chan" the girl waved sheepishly

"Syao-kun?" Sakura's eyes widen "Why? How?"

"Those are the same thing I like to know. All I'm responsible for is waking up in the morning"

The card captors thought to themselves silently

"Perhaps Eriol-kun might know something about this?" Sakura suggested

"Maybe" was the answer "I won't be surprised if he's responsible for all of this"

"Oh, Syao-kun" The cherry blossom sighted as they head of towards Hiiragizawa manor.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
(Tomoyo's)

"So, that's what happened?" Tomoyo inquired after hearing the story "All you did was wake up?"

Eriol nodded

"How strange?" The violet-eyed girl pondered

"I highly suspect the work of another at this" The blue-eyed girl added

"We should call Taeia and Sakura-chan, to see what they know" Tomoyo suggested

"Good idea"

---- 2 phone calls later ----

"Kinomoto-san said Sakura-chan went to Syaoran's house" The girl came back "and Taeia is on her way"

"All we need to do is wait" Eriol replied
Suddenly the doorbell rang

Eriol and Tomoyo went to answer it

Outside stood Sakura and Syaoran

"So they got you too, ne?" Eriol was the first to speak

"We went to your place first," The Little wolf explained "but Spinel said you were here and that it happened to you too"

"We called Taeia, she's on her way" The dark-haired girl said "We'll get to the bottom of this"

----- 10 minutes later ----

"I'm here" Taeia stepped into the house "What's the big emergency?"

"In here" A voice called from the kitchen

Taeia was speechless when she entered the kitchen and saw what was suppose to be two teen boys

"How¡­ Did this happen?"

"We were hoping you know"

"I'll bet it's The Mage, up to one of his tricks again" Taeia answered "Um, Sakura-chan, did you try to use the Change card to switch them back?"

"Yes, but it didn't work"

"Then they probably has a sealing spell on them"

"Hoe? What's a sealing spell?"

"It's a spell that prevents other magic from affecting the one on Syaoran and Otousan"

"Oh, that's it! Once I get my hands on the guy I'll kill him with my bare hands!" the amber-eyed girl threatened

"Syao-kun, calm down" Sakura said

"Calm down? Calm down!? You expect me to calm down in a situation like this? How exactly am to calm down when I'm not even the same gender I was last night, huh? Well? You have no idea what's it like, so please don't tall me to calm down!" She shouted the response

"I'm sorry" The card mistress' voice was just above a whisper

"No, Sakura, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have yelled like that" was the reply "I'm just not used to all this you know?"

"Don't worry, we'll get through it" Sakura smiled reassuringly

Syaoran nodded

"How about we take the day off? Do what we want. Take our mind off of things. Just the five of us girls?" Taeia piped up "We can stop by the ice cream polar and do a little shopping"

"Why not? We're stuck in this body anyways" Eriol joined in "I'll go"

"Oh, fine" Syaoran gave in
----------------------------------------------------------------------
(Palace)

"They can be quite amusing sometimes" The Mage chuckled
