Chapter 10 - Back... Here





I would never come as a child. Teen is as young as I will go. I'm planning to be nineteen this time, not much older than my last "life" as a human. I miss Touya-kun very much. And the Card Mistress. And Kero-chan. And Yue-san. Maybe it's because I've seen them more recently than the other people I've met before. I sighed. But not in sadness. I'm actually very happy; it's very peaceful here. ^_^


I looked around at the beautiful scenery around me. I absolutely love the ocean; the deep blue sea, the sand under me, and the palm trees all around me. Their shadows covering my regenerating body. I prefer to look the same, but I do know how to change my looks to make myself look older or younger. Thank Kami-sama for that.


I lay in the warm sun in a place I cannot identify. But it does not matter. I usually find my way around. I decided to stay here until I have a normal human body once again. Then I shall look for a place to go, perhaps away from the Kinomotos and Clow's guardians... maybe I can forget... I frowned, my lips almost formed, yet still having a misty look. I do not wish to completely forget them. But maybe it'll be easier if I can forget some things...


Which is why I almost consider it to be a half curse. My being able to be able to communicate with my fellow Clow Cards I mean. I can communicate with them wherever we are. It does not matter how far away we are. My short life knowing my new found friends, that I was determined to forget for a while until my emotions are dulled, is not a curse at all. But my best friend called out to me...


'Love!' her voice rang in my head. I sat straight up, my just newly made body feeling the sun's intense heat. I stood up and walked to the shade. Then I answered back. 'What is it Mirror?' Of course I spoke in my mind. I do not think it is possible for us to be able to hear each other. Besides, she does not have a human form. And I believe she is still inside her card home. I can just feel constriction. I would have felt glad in hearing her but how she yelled my name kind of... I don't know... it made me a bit nervous...


'We've... all changed...' she replied to my question. My eyes widened. 'All of them? The Card Mistress is quick...' Mirror laughed and my shoulders, that I didn't know were tense in the first place, relaxed. 'It's been three years.' Hmm... she's right... I must have forgotten while I was in the battlefield. And it's probably also because it takes me a little while for me to generate a body for myself. Yes, I am very slow. Hush. Now anyway, if all my fellow Cards have been captured... then soon my power will diminish... As a card of Clow I will lose my power... I must get to the Card Mistress. I told Mirror my message and I could hear the smile in her voice as she said, 'I'll see you soon.'


I must get there quickly. And since there does not seem to be any way for me to be going back with a craft of some sort, I assume I have to go there myself. I went to the sky. Since, I am like a spirit in a fashion, I can fly. I can go easily with the wind to help me.










I wandered around, high in the air, gently floating through clouds. Did you know that flying with the birds are fun? ^_^ I just found that out. I followed the birds for some way, until I remembered that I have a destination of my own. Well, little birds, thanks for making me feel better for a while.










Oh... I see land again. I looked around on the ground first to make sure that no one would see me and wonder why I was up in the air. I gently landed on my feet in the clearing of a forest of some sort. I'm glad that at least my flying abilities do not come short when I am in my spirit-like form and in my human form, though the human qualities fade out. I sighed. I must learn to walk again. I walked carefully with my tender feet. At least I remembered about clothing... hmm, I can't make myself shoes now... someone might see... "Uh... Ahh-"


"Oof..." Uh... heh heh... what happened was I tripped over a branch. But something caught me before I could hit the ground. I looked up to see a confused face of a young man with short, gray hair, and glasses. My eyes widened. "Yue-san!!" I yelled and hugged him. Mistake. Darn. I just realized what I said and blushed as I tried to redeem myself. "Gomen nasai, gomen nasai, gomen nasai, I thought you were... I mean... Konnichiwa, Yukito-san!" I waved nervously.


He didn't seem to really understand what I was saying until... his eyes widened too. "Uh... You know... Yue... san?" he asked me. Oh darn. Kami-sama what do I say? I started stuttering as I tried to buy time to think up a story but then he smiled brightly. "Oh I remember you! You're the person I ran into a while ago!" he smiled. I raised an eyebrow. He made it sound like we met yesterday. But then... I could remember it like yesterday. I smiled. "Hai... we've met."


"What's your na-" he started but then stopped talking. "Oh, hi Hinako-san!"


How does he know my name? I do not believe I have told him before. I guess I must have looked confused because he laughed and said, "Oh Yue told me. And he told me that you two know each other." he added, obviously seeing my scared face. I nodded. Thank you Yue-san, I said silently. Suddenly there was a wind around Yukito-san. And in a moment Yue was standing in his place. "Yue-san!!" I hugged him fiercly. I guess I alarmed him; he tensed up for a moment. I just thought of how I felt. How forgetful of me! Of course Yukito-san must know about Yue-san... Yue-san transformed in front of Touya-san too... and... I stopped thinking, and let go of Yue, embarrassed. "Gomen..."


Yue chuckled then patted my shoulder and assured me that it was alright. He told me that everyone knows everything now. And one other thing... Sakura's already been transforming the Clow Cards into her own Cards... oh no... I hope it will not be late...


But for now... I'm here! Once again... I'll be able to see everyone again! Wai! ^_^
