The Wolc Cards



A/N: Hey everyone!! Thanks to those who reviewed!! Here's chapter 1!! If is anything you don't understand, please ask!! (I'm learning Japanese as a third language, but I'm BAAAAD at it =( ) By the way, this fic takes place a while after all the Clow Cards have turned into Sakura Cards, and Eriol and Syaoran haven't left. Hmm, I loved the second movie, but let's just say it doesn't happen ='( Syaoran confessed in the second last episode of Season 3, right? What if he hadn't, and the last episode (in which he left) didn't happen? (Ohohohohoho ^O^) I'm gonna have fun!!

Disclaimer: I do not own Cardcaptor Sakura, Clamp does. I do not own Pokemon, Nintendo does. *sob sob* But I do own this fic. =D

"Hoe!! I'm going to be late!!" Sakura yelled, dashing around the room, changing her clothes hurriedly. (Typical day…=D)

"I DID try to wake you up, you know," Kero said, floating cross-legged somewhere above Sakura's bed. "I don't want anyone to think that I didn't try."

"Yeah, whatever. Bye, Kero!! See you after school!!" Grabbing her bag, she ran down the stairs and arrived, panting, into the kitchen "Ohayo!!"

"Ohayo, kajuu," Touya replied, grinning maliciously. He was making breakfast. "I bet that they heard you coming down the stairs in Africa."

"Sakura is NOT a kajuu," Sakura said, storming to the table. "Ohayo, mother. Where's dad?"

"He had to go to work early today," Touya replied, bringing a plate of pancakes to the table. "He already left." Taking off his apron, he walked off. "I'm going. I need to meet Yukito at school to finish up our project."

"Hoe?" Sakura said, blinking. "What about your breakfast?"

"I already ate," he replied. "See ya."

Looking at the time, she quickly gobbled up the pancakes. "Hoe!! I'm going to be late!!" Buckling on her roller blades, she skated off quickly, nearly falling down in the process of getting up.

In the room, Kero watched her leave. Floating to the drawer where the Sakura Book was kept, he glowed with a golden outline, and the drawer slid open. He wanted to have a chat with some of the Sakura Cards. It WAS lonely being in the house with no one around. The Sakura Book floated out, and to Kero's shock, he saw a green-coloured book lying in the drawer. Flying over to the drawer, he peered at the new book and saw the words inscribed on it. There was also a silvery wolf with a pair of wings wrapped around it on the front of the book, and turning it over in his paws, there was a small sun with wings on the back of it. Kero frowned. He would discuss this with Sakura when she got back.

Meanwhile, Sakura had arrived in the classroom. Tomoyo, Rika, Naoko (is that right? =S), and Chiharu were applauding her.

"That's the record time for getting from the school gate to the classroom!!" Chiharu exclaimed, holding a stopwatch in her hand.

"Good-thing-Sensei-isn't-here-yet," Sakura panted, sinking to her knees behind the door. "Ohayo-everyone." She crawled on her hands and knees to her seat and climbed into it. "Ohayo, Syaoran-kun."

"Ohayo," Syaoran replied, looking very gloomy, though he blushed slightly when Sakura greeted him.

"What's wrong, Syaoran-kun?" Sakura asked with a concerned look on her face.

"I'm going back to Hong Kong soon," he mumbled.

"WHAT!?!?" Sakura exclaimed. "When? Why?"

"This weekend, and because since the matter of the Clow Cards AND the Sakura Cards have been resolved, my mother wants me to go back home."

Beside them, Eriol smiled and murmured under his breath, "You won't be going anywhere, my cute descendant, after you discover it."

"What did you say?" Syaoran turned to Eriol and asked suspiciously.

"Did I say something, my cute descendant?" Eriol replied with wide, innocent eyes.

Sakura giggled at the use of 'my cute descendant', while Syaoran growled. Sakura turned back to Syaoran with worried eyes. An idea was half-forming in her mind.

"All right, sit down everyone!!" The door slid open suddenly, and Terada- sensei strode in. Sakura turned and sat in her seat, but threw a concerned glance at Syaoran before preparing for the lesson.

Everyone hurried back to their seats. During lesson time, Tomoyo noticed the thoughtful look on Sakura's face. Thinking back to the glance, she immediately guessed what she was thinking about. She smiled.

During break, Sakura turned to face Tomoyo and asked, "Tomoyo-chan, do you want to come over to my house this afternoon?"

"Sure!!" Tomoyo replied. Leaning over, she whispered into Sakura's ear, "Are you going to invite Syaoran-kun as well?"

"Yeah!!" Sakura exclaimed naively. "How did you guess?" Turning to Syaoran, who was just leaving his desk, she asked, "Do you want to come over to my house today, Syaoran-kun?"

"W-what?" Syaoran said in surprise. "Go to your house today?"

"Are you busy today? Can you come?" Sakura asked, with tears in her eyes (for those of you who read the manga, this is like the scene in book ten where she invites him to go to the festival at the shrine to thank him for comforting her the previous day and making her back to her old self—where she suddenly rushes in while Syaoran is changing the water in the vase).

"N-no, I'm not b-busy t-today," he stuttered, blushing furiously. "I-I'll come."

"That's great!!" Sakura said happily. Turning to Eriol, she asked, "Do you want to come too, Eriol-kun?"

Smiling, he nodded. He had a reason for going to her house; he knew what was going to happen there.

"Can all of you stay for dinner too? I'm cooking tonight." Sakura said. All three of them nodded, Syaoran blushing furiously, not realizing the danger of staying at Sakura's house for dinner. (Namely--Touya!! Ohohohohoho ^O^)



***************************That afternoon…*******************************



"Come on, you guys!!" Sakura shouted over her shoulder. She was pulling Tomoyo's hand and half-running, the guys were trailing behind. It was a good thing she wasn't using her skates. Her roller blades were slung over her shoulder, because she knew that the other three would not be able to keep up if she roller-bladed.

Finally they arrived at Sakura's house. She ran up the front steps and flung the door open. "Kero!! I'm back!!" she shouted.

Kero came flying out of her room. "Hey Sak…" He looked at the three people behind her. "You've got company, I see. Why did you invite the Chinese gaki?"

Syaoran stomped past Sakura and stood in front of Kero. "How dare you call me a gaki, you stuffed animal!!" Syaoran yelled in front of Kero's face. Kero got blown backwards by the force of the yell, and he hit the wall, hard. When he got up, he was VERY angry, and his wings started to grow.

Sakura, recognizing the signs of transforming, yelled for Kero to stop, while Tomoyo was busy recording the scene on her trusty video camera. Kero's wings stopped growing and started to shrink back to their normal size. "He called me a stuffed animal," Kero grumbled sullenly, rubbing the back of his head where it had hit the wall.

"But you called him a gaki first, Kero," Sakura said sternly. Syaoran stood there, embarrassed by his outburst, but looking triumphant at the victory.

"Oh yes," Kero said, still rubbing his head, "This morning while you were at school, I found a Book in your drawer, under the Sakura Book."

"A book? Maybe it's the one I lost last summer," Sakura said, climbing up the stairs with the others behind her.

"No no no, I meant a Card Book, like the Sakura Book and the Clow Book."

"What?!?! A Card Book? Where?" Sakura asked curiously, hurrying up the stairs, the others not far behind.

"Like I said, it's in the drawer," Kero repeated exasperatedly. "Why doesn't anyone listen to what I say?"

"Probably because you're not worth listening to?" Syaoran replied sarcastically, coming level with Sakura. "This is interesting, though. I don't know that there were other Card Books around."

Reaching her room, Sakura flung her bag down in a corner, indicating to the others to do the same. Walking over to her drawer, she opened it and took her Book out. Putting her Book on the table, she saw that Kero was right, there WAS a Book there. The others crowded round, Eriol smiling a knowing smile, Tomoyo busy recording it, and Syaoran looking at it with avid interest, thinking, *Maybe I don't have to go back to Hong Kong after all.*

Sakura picked up the green Book carefully. Seeing that it didn't 'explode' like the Clow Book did when she held it the first time, she examined it. "This must be 'The Wolc Book'. It feels empty…" She shook it gently, and then tapped it lightly. The Book sure sounded empty. She tried to open it, but found that it was locked tightly with magic.

Kero looked disappointed. "This must mean that you're not the 'official' Cardcaptor for this set of cards.," he muttered. "Who could it be?"

"Maybe Syaoran should try to open it," Eriol suggested softly.

"Huh? Err…okay," Syaoran said dubiously, but excitedly. Sakura handed him the Book.

When it touched his hands, the Wolc Book gave a shudder, and started to glow bright green. It floated in front of Syaoran, and suddenly gave off an intense flash of green light. Something rose out of the front of the Book.

It was small, puppy-like, and had long pointy ears with a tuft of fur at the tips, like a rabbit's, except that the tips were pointed and had tufts. It had a sort of fluffy mane of fur around its neck. It also had a long, bushy tail, much like a wolf's. Its fur was a light green; the 'mane' around its neck, tufts of fur at the tips of the ears and the last one- quarter of its tail luminous silver. It had wings much like Kero's, except that it was also silver. Its eyes were closed.

(For those familiar to Pokemon, what I have been describing for the last five minutes—or for the last paragraph anyway—is a small, light green and silver Eevee with tufts at the ears and wings. =D)

It opened its eyes. "Hello," the green 'beast' said sleepily in a distinctly feminine voice. "I am Shiromidori, guardian beast of the seal of the Wolc Book." (Sound familiar? ;P)



Whoa!! That was some chapter. Who is the mysterious new guardian beast? Will Syaoran go back to Hong Kong? Wait till the next chapter!! I'm going to take a break on this fic for a while while I write the next chapter of my other fic. =P

*Yawn* It is now 11.50pm. Shiromidori sort of means "white-green" in Japanese, I think. I just made it up with my Japanese textbook/workbook. I didn't know what 'silver' was in Japanese, but heck. Well, remember to r+r. Till next time, ja ne!!
