Chapter Five:
Tame Little Wolf
and
Smiles were graced upon their faces as they came closer to them. Xiaolang couldn't help but blush at the sight.
"Yukito Tsukishiro, Lord Eriol and Prince
Xiaolang of the Li Kingdom," Yukito smiled at Prince Touya.
"It is nice to see you again," Xiaolang
stated.
"It is nice to see you as well," Sakura
said.
"So this is the Prince Touya and Princess
Sakura of the Kinomoto Kingdom, it is nice to meet you," Eriol stated.
By this time they had dismounted their
stallions. They didn't know what to do,
or what to say. How was one supposed to
act with an enemy that you trust and like? Just as Sakura was going to say something Kero popped out of the saddle
pouch on her white stallion. It brought
Eriol by surprise but Yukito and Xiaolang only smiled at him.
"Nice to see you, again, Kero," Yukito
stated with a smile.
"Yue, is that you," Kero said as he flew
to Yukito.
Yukito nodded at him then he changed to
his true form Yue.
So she is the other cardcaptor, Eriol
thought.
"Hey, how come you can change into your
true form, Yue?" Kero asked his old companion.
"Xiaolang has enough magic within himself
so I can transform into my true form. I have thought him since birth so he is
quite powerful," Yue stated.
"Oh, I found Sakura only five years ago,
not as much time as you with Xiaolang," Kero sighed.
"So you have been with Xiaolang since
birth?" Touya asked.
Yue looked at him and nodded. Touya noticed the cold look in his eyes,
they were no longer a soft hazel but an unsympathetic yet beautiful sapphire.
Only when he looked at Xiaolang did his eyes seem to turn gentle. It was obvious that he cared deeply for the
young boy. But to what point? His change of thought was broken when Yue
asked Sakura of the Clow cards.
"Have you found any of the Clow cards?"
Yue asked.
"No, we thought that maybe you had them,"
Sakura stated.
"If we haven't found the Clow Cards, that
means someone has them," Xiaolang sighed.
"It doesn't necessary mean that," Eriol
stated. Kero for some reason kept
looking at Eriol. Then Kero looked at
Yue and he just nodded.
"What?" Eriol asked.
"Are you related to the Li Royal Family?"
Kero asked him.
"No, I was brought up as Xiaolang's
cousin but I am really not," Eriol.
Xiaolang looked at Eriol then to Yue.
"Yue, you know something you are no
telling me. It has something to do with
Eriol," Xiaolang stated at his guardian.
"He knows you well, Yue," Kero smiled.
"So?" Sakura asked.
"Yue has always been some what of a
mystery, so it strikes me interesting that Xiaolang knows him well," Kero
answered.
"I have been with Yue since birth, he not
an enigma to me," Xiaolang stated. That
comments made Yue smile.
"Back to the subject, what is it that you
are not telling me?" Xiaolang continued looking directly at Yue.
"Look at him Xiaolang, concentrate on
your power. Close your eyes what do you sense," Yue said as he placed his hands
on Xiaolang's shoulders and turn him to Eriol.
Xiaolang did as he was told. He sensed a faint power, but a power
nonetheless. Then the image of an older
man with blue hair looked like Eriol. Then older image flashed in front of his eyes. The same man only different with light brown hair like Sakura's
and her eyes. Eriol, the two other man
seem to replay themselves in his mind as if the were trying to tell him
something. Then it came to him, the man
with blue hair was Clow Reed. He
quickly snapped open his eyes. He
smiled at Eriol confusing him.
"You are the reincarnation of Clow Reed,"
Xiaolang smiled.
This came as a shock to everyone but Yue
and Kero.
"But there is another," Xiaolang
continued.
"What?" Touya asked.
Xiaolang turned to him, and explained.
"There is an other I saw him. Clow Reed was reincarnated in two. His mind and his soul, very uncommon, but it
happened nonetheless. I saw his image,
a man, I have never seen before. He had
a gentle smile with brown eyes and light brown hair like Sakura's. He sort of look like Eriol in a way,"
Xiaolang stated.
Sakura sighed and Kero flew to her and
said," Don't worry Sakura, you will be able to do that when you get the hang of
it." Sakura just smiled then turn to curious looking Xiaolang. She smiled at him, that maybe him blush. Touya was in deep thought; he couldn't help
think of his father when Xiaolang talked of the other man. No, father
couldn't be the other reincarnation of Clow Reed, could he? Touya thought.
"But where are the cards?" Xiaolang
sighed.
"I don't know, but they are safe," Kero
said.
"How?" Eriol asked.
"Well, only people with magical powers
can open the Clow Book," Kero stated.
"What if someone has the Clow Book, but
just hasn't opened it yet?" Touya asked.
"It is possible," Yue answered.
The wind was picking up causing Sakura to
shiver. Xiaolang looked around, he
sensed something, something he did not like.
"Sakura do you sense something?" Xiaolang
asked.
Sakura closed her eyes, and then quickly
opened them she nodded in respond.
"Someone is here," Touya stated.
The group looked around trying to find
the person Xiaolang, Touya and Sakura sense. But they couldn't find anyone.
"We should leave," Kero suggested.
Everyone agreed and before they said
their goodbyes Yue turned back to Yukito. They agreed that they would meet each other again in two days at high
noon. As they rode off in different
directions, a mysterious man dressed in back jump out of the trees near where
the group once stood. It was the same
man who attacked Sakura and battle Xiaolang. His eyes turned in to direction Xiaolang went in.
"It seems the young boy, is better then
the girl. Oh, Prince Xiaolang, it seems
that in two days you will be mine," he told himself. In two days, Prince Xiaolang would by in his hand. He laughed to himself this would be very
interesting.
