Five hundred years ago, we - the Clow Cards - were sealed in a special book. Our guardian fell asleep and a young girl released us from our confinement. Now we are being recaptured one by one. These are our stories.

+Episode 2 - The Ultimate Capture*+
The Shadow of a person reflects their darker personality sides and their true willingness to do dark things. If Shadows are allowed to separate from their owners, quite a good deal of chaos could ensue.

I'm not quite sure why I am here at Tomeda Elementary School - or why I am able to read the sign that tells me it is such. All I know is that I feel drawn here. The Cardcaptor is close by. I blend myself in with a student's shadow and watch a couple of girls in the corner of the schoolyard. Using the shadows of various bugs and birds, I slip closer to them. One girl, called Sakura, is showing her friend, Tomoyo*, her "magic". So it is Sakura who is the Cardcaptor. But she cannot sense me yet.
*****
I had been yearning to cause some mischief anyways, so I collected the shadows of most students at the school. That night, we had fun. We piled up a bunch of desks in the schoolyard and in several classrooms. Just enough to cause a school holiday. The next day was fun too. Some adults were really angry about what happened (hehehe). The students helped clean up and then got to go home early. The girl called Sakura did not even think about Clow Cards at all. I was beginning to wonder why Kero had chosen her to be Cardcaptor. I would have to be difficult to test her abilities.
*****
That night, she showed up at the school with her friend and a plush toy looking thing that turned out to be Kero in fairy form. Her friend seemed intent on filming her every move and Kero, well Kero was just ridiculous looking. Apparently he did not have power beyond flying...and that ribbon!....
Ahem, anyway..... With all the students' shadows with me, Lady Sakura was unable to beat me. Eventually, she used the Fly card to hover just beyond my reach. I extended a shadow and grabbed the Sealing Rod, pulling Lady Sakura down. Then all of a sudden the lights came on. All of them. There wasn't supposed to be anyone here. Looking up I saw Tomoyo waving at Sakura from the window.
"I may not be able to catch Clow Cards, but I *can* turn on the lights!" she said.
I turned to leave; I did not wish to be captured yet. The next thing I heard, however, was "WINDY!" and suddenly I was bound - held down by the Windy Card. There was nothing I could do, so I submitted and allowed Lady Sakura to capture me. Even a powerful guy like meknows when he is defeated. And besides, nobody I'd known in Clow Reed's day would have been able to catch me with only Windy and Fly.

Authors Notes: *Ultimate Capture...get the pun...Shadow Card Capture...Shadow the Hedgehog = Ultimate life form...... **blank stares** um hehehe....next item...Tomoyo is the name of Sakura's friend. If you only have seen the dub they called her Madison....sorry about changing tenses in this chapter...its probly gonna happen again so I apologize in advance, ok
