Seiryuu: The Mirror of Mystery
Chapter 18
Syaoran's shack was only a simple, cheap hotel. As soon as we got the keys to
Syaoran's room, we immediately went in there.
The room was pretty shabby only having a single bed for one at the far left
corner from the door. There was a small drawer beside it and on top of it was
vase with dandylions. To the right was a small table with one chair and there
was a single window with worn, old cloth for curtains beside it. That made up
all the furnishings. The walls were poorly painted with dark green and the
wodden floor was rotten at some parts and at some points, creaked when stepped
upon and.
"I'm sorry if it's quite poor. I don't have enough money." he told us as he
got the book he borrowed from me and laid on the table.
"iz quite alright." Rika replied, "it iz definately much better zan staying at
ze mansion right now."
We entered the room and Syaoran bid Lucas to sit on the chair. Rika and I sat
on his bed. "Sakura," he started to say, "I'm afraid that we'll have to tell
our stories later. We'll have to hear the old man's story first."
I nodded my head.
Syaoran faced Lucas and gave a nod.
Lucas nodded back and started to speak. "well, it all started like this: I was
staing in my room, as usual when I heard a knock on the door. Thinking that it
was Lady Sakura and Rika, I opened it. To my surprise, ten men in black robes
and their faces were covered with their black hoods were standing by the door.
Sensing danger, I went out and closed the door behind me. 'what do ye want?' says
I, 'is the Lady Tomoyo at home?' the man before me asks. 'She's asleep. I'm afraid
ye has to go back later' I told them then I turned my back and was 'bout to go
inside when I felt something pointy at my back. 'take us to her' says them, 'I'd
rather die' I replied. You see, no one can enter that door if I didn't allow it.
But they had powers of their own."
Lucas stopped for a breath.
"they bent my will to follow them. 'twas a nasty feeling, ya hear? very nasty.
I wasn't strong enough to defend myself against their magics, so I was forced
and they entered. But we were all surprised. The Lord Eriol was there, standing
with his hands raised for a spell. 'cast your spell and the old man dies' says
the man, 'you think I care' Lord Eriol tells them. At that moment, me heart
almost stopped - thinking that I'd die right then and there. But then, the man
with the pointy object threw me aside. 'run Lucas!' shouts Lord Eriol to me,
bit I was scared stiff. Theys battle but Lord Eriol was out numbered. There
was a bright flash that hurt my eyes and when I could see again, Lord Eriol
was inside a crystal-like shard, big enough for him to fit in."
Lucas sighed and looked down.
"do continue." Syaoran said, his brow was knotted with what I guessed to be
anger.
"The leader, I guess.." he started, "..the man who spoke to me, ordered two
of his men to tie me up. Then they went up the stairs. I heard the screams of
the servant-girls and the butlers as they met with the evil group. Then, I
heard Lady Tomoyo casting her spells in a loud voice. Then, ther was a loud
'bang!' then silence."
"OH NO!!!" Rika shouted, suddenly standing up with tears filling her eyes,
"you zon't tell zat ze lady....ze lady was caged into ze crystal like zing az
vell??"
Lucas nodded slowly.
Rika sat back on the bed in disbelief. Tears ran down her cheeks. "zat iz
'orrible!.." she muttered to herself. Knowing that I should comfort her, I
embraced her and carresed her back comfortingly. She cried openly.
"there, there... we'll save them don't worry Rika." I told her, then faced
Syaoran "we WILL save them, right Syaoran?"
Syaoran nodded. "Lucas, is there any other thing that you noticed about them?"
he asked.
"well," he started to say, "now that yous says it, they did wear this round
gold medallion 'bout their necks. It was held by a thick chain of gold."
"was the carving on the medallion a skull with snake heads comeing out of the
eyesockets and the skull was surrounded by lightning?" Syaoran asked.
"yes...yes... that's exactly how it looked like!" Lucas said, nodding his
balding head.
"Darn it!" Syaoran shouts, slamming his fist on the table.
I stood up and went over to him. "what's wrong?"
"those are the members of The Order, a group of Witches and Wizards under my
father's command. They must be here to capture me. THE VILE SCUM!" he shouted,
walking around, fists clenched.
"iz zere anything ve can do?" Rika said, wiping her tears.
"I'll admit that they're a though group to beat wheh they're in groups."
Syaoran said, causing another sob from Rika, "but, there is a way. Are you
all willing to go through it? We all have to act on this one, even you Lucas.
what do you say?"
"I'll go if you go." I told him, clutching his hands in mine.
"I'll go too! I'm no old man!" Lucas said.
"'ey! zon't leave ve vehind! I'll go too!" Rika followed.
Syaoran smiled. Determination was clearly seen in his eyes. "We'll have to
discuss the floorplan of the house first."
"zat's vat I'm good at! I know every nook and cranny ov zat vansion!" Rika
suddenly said.
"Good. Then, we'll make a plan. We'll attack at dawn. I'm sure they'll love
to see me again!" he said, looking out of the window and smiling evily.
