The sun did not shine in the cold winter day as two figures were riding on their white steeds along the riding path to the neighboring kingdom, which was cover in crisp and fresh snow. The soft snowflakes fall from the sky and causing peaceful scenery. On the two figures was a young man with amber eyes and chestnut color hair. He was listening to the elder man beside him. He had blue eyes with blue and a gentle smile.
"Father, what is the vision you wish me to know?" the young man asked.
"Patience, my Little Wolf, patience," he answered.
Just as he had answered a lone rider had came a cross the snowy bank. He was an elderly man with dark red eyes. He wore a serious expression on his face as he appeared in front of them.
"King Clow, young prince, I wish to have a meeting with you at noon tomorrow before the young prince's wedding, if it is possible," he asked.
"Yes, Lord Lin, we will see you tomorrow," Clow Reed answered with a nodded.
Lord Lin nodded and rode off, leaving only father and son.
"Father?" Little Wolf was about to ask his father.
"Little Wolf, listen to me, I have seen the future and it is not one I am pleased with," Clow Reed stated.
"But father, then maybe there is something you can do to change it," Little Wolf stated.
"No, my son, I have learned long ago that I only have the gift or curse to see into the future but not the right to change it," Clow Reed told his only son.
"But a mist all of the sorrow there are some things I am proud of and even if a could, my son, I do not know when just an event will happened to cause this. For some reason my powers fail me, I have always been able to pin point what causes this but this time, I can't." Clow Reed said.
"There must be for a reason my father," Little Wolf stated.
Little Wolf looked up at he sky and saw two figures flying above them.
"Father, look," Little Wolf smiled as two mythical figures appeared before them. The moon god in all of his glory, with a serious expression upon his face, beside him the sun beast with a smile spread across his.
"Hello Yue, hello Kero," Little Wolf smiled.
"Hello, Little Wolf," Kero and Yue, replied with a bow.
"Master, we have some disturbing news, there has been several small fires along the eastern border," Yue stated.
"Fires?" Clow asked.
"Yes, sire, I believe it is wise to go to the people of the small villages, to see how they are and to show they have a support," Kero stated.
"I agree," Yue said.
"Yes, in a time like this it is go to know you are not alone," Clow Reed stated and started off to the eastern borders.
In the distance a small group of men were watching the minute assembly leave. Their blood red eyes followed them as they disappeared along the snowy white trees.
"Has the trap been set?" one of the men asked, by appearance he seemed to be the oldest of the men.
"Yes, father, the trap has been set. The have no idea of what kind of danger they are in," the man known as Lord Fredrick Lin. His father, Charles Lin nodded in approval. The Lin family would have everything they want: both kingdoms and all the power in the universe. They rode away to their estate were they would wait, like a viper insight of it's prey.
In the other kingdom stood two girls in a grand bedroom with a white dress in between. The girl with emerald eyes and honey hair wore a smile that would light up a dark room.
"Violet, the dress it's beautiful," she stated as she walked around the wedding gown she would wear tomorrow.
"Why only the best for, the famous Princess Cherry Blossom," her friend, Violet said. She was a lovely girl with violet eyes and purplish-black hair.
"I can't believe your wedding is tomorrow. To Prince Little Wolf none the less," Violet, sighed.
Cherry Blossom smiled and turned to her window to see a blanket of snow covering the vast land before her and in the distance stood the castle, in which the love of her life lived.
"I can't believe it, either. I'm finally going to be with him. I fell in love with him the first time I saw him," Cherry Blossom said as she turned back to Violet.
"Have to you told him of your powers?" Violet asked.
"I didn't have to. He sensed my magic like I sensed his. Among all the people that were at the ball he sense my aura above all. He told me, that when he first felt my aura, he felt complete. Like he had found his soul mate, and I told him, that how I felt too," Cherry Blossom said.
"How romantic," Violet smiled.
"I can't wait for tomorrow," Cherry Blossom stated.
The next day, both kingdoms were in just excitement they thought time had slowed down to make this day unbearable. They wanted to see the Prince and Princess marry and happy like they should be.
A few minutes before they're meeting with Clow Reed and his son, the Lin family stood before a cauldron filled with a red bubbling liquid chanting a spell.
In the empty land filled with snow two figures once again could be seen waiting. The knock had just struck noon and the man they were going to meet was not there yet. Little Wolf and Clow Reed could not shaken this feeling of dread that happen been upon them every since the minute they woke up. Cherry Blossom had been sensing a horrible feeling as she awoken in the morning. Not until the clock struck noon did she know the he love was in danger.
"Violet, I must go," Cherry Blossom said.
"But, Cherry Blossom, your wedding," Violet stated.
"I have this feeling Violet, Little Wolf is in danger," Cherry Blossom said as she ran out of her room.
Violet was left in shock. Cherry Blossom left the castle in a blaze, no one not even her brother even were she was going. He ran to the window. He blue eyes followed her through the amaze of trees below and ran out to follow her but she was gone, he tried to remember which way she went but everything looked so different from up her. Like if something was blinding him from following her.
Cherry Blossom rode and rode, not knowing where she was going but she knew she had to be there. She rode to an empty place in between the forest around the river near by. She saw two figures in the center and she knew who it was.
"Little Wolf, Clow Reed," Cherry Blossom shouted.
"Cherry Blossom," Little Wolf shouted wondering what she was doing here.
Once she reached them, they had already dismounted their horses. She jumped off when she stopped and ran into Little Wolf's arms.
"Little Wolf, you must get away, I have this terrible feeling, that both of you are in danger," Cherry Blossom said as she rested her head on Little Wolf's shoulders.
Before Little Wolf and Clow Reed could react, a group of hooded men roe of horse back towards them swords and crossbows in hands. One of the men, shot at Cherry Blossom but Little Wolf stepped in front of her taking the arrow in his heart.
"Little Wolf, no!!" Cherry Blossom shouted as Little Wolf fall to the ground.
"No!!" Clow Reed shouted as he ran to his fallen son's side. He fell to his knees as he saw the blood soak the snow cover ground.
"I love you both so much, I couldn't bear to see either hurt," Little Wolf whispered as his heartbeat gradually slowed down until it stopped.
"No, please don't leave me, please," Cherry Blossom, cried.
"No this is not happening, he can't be gone, no!" Clow Reed roared.
They were so rapped up in their lost that they didn't see the nameless riders came fore. One of the men seized Cherry Blossom from behind. She screamed and scratched her assailant right above his left eye causing him to cried out in pain. Before she could have ran away, he took hold of her arm and with dagger in hand stabbed her in her stomach. She in held she the dagger pierced her flesh. She looked up to see the face of her attacker, and saw Fredrick. She fell to the ground as he pulled out the dagger. With what little strength she had she crawled to Little Wolf side and took hold of his lifeless hand and whispered," Do not worry, you are not alone."
Then she was gone. Clow Reed in total chock of want had happened found out why he didn't see what would cause the downfall of the union between kingdoms. It was their death that would cause it, and if he had known he would have done everything in his power to stop this.
Clow Reed looked up and stared into their eyes with sorrow and pain and in held a breath and chanted a spell. A blue glow surrounded them and slowly faded.
"What have you done?" Fredrick shouted.
"I have cast a spell bind you and your descants from using the unholy and holy magic. You will have no power, no magic and nothing you can do, will shatter the prison your greed has placed you in," Clow Reed stated.
He placed his hand on the fallen lovers and chanted what would be his last spell. The spell so that they and only they could release the powers of the Clow Cards, Yue and Kero had sensed the masters help but they arrived to late. The rides fearing want might happen rode off. The guardians stood over the follow cared ones, never to know what really happened.
During the time that followed the kingdoms had blamed each other, for the death of Princess Cherry Blossom, Prince Little Wolf and King Clow Reed, with some assistance from the Li family. Generation after generation the kingdoms fought each other until they forget why they were fight just remembered that they were fighting.
