Chapter 7-You want me to WHAT?
Crystal woke up in Sakura's room. A yellow creature was floating around. "Spinel Sun! What happened? You're...yellow." The yellow creature puffed out his chest. "I am not Eli's guardian beast. I'm Sakura's. My name is Cereber-mmf"
A flying pillow made him crash land on Sakura's bed. Li smiled as he entered. "Score!" He whispered. Cer-Ker-whatever he was flew at the boy's head. "Brat! What are you doing in here?" Li retorted, "What are you going to do about it, stuffed animal?"
Kero's wings began to grow, but a tall couple walked in. The man lifted the creature by his neck, and shook his head. Li walked out, smiling, and the yellow creature sulked on the bed.
Crystal recognized Anomalous, (after all, she had been part of Anomalous for how many years?) but the tall winged man was unfamiliar. He spoke kindly to her. "It's nice to see you awake, Crystal Glass. I believe it's time to speak to Eli Moon. You were correct in your assumption that Anomalous would be a perfect guardian for you. I share your opinion." Both blushed, but it went straight over her head.
"Okay. I do need to thank him." She added an afterthought for Anomalous. *Properly. I'm not sure Eli Moon understood the thank you. I didn't quite get to speak.* Anomalous blushed again. I know I didn't let you speak much, but Eli Moon is clever. That's why we're going with Yue. He'll help me keep an eye on you AND Eli. Crystal smiled. "What harm does Eli intend for me?" Yue answered, and Crystal remembered she had to be careful to be distinct about thoughts and words.
"Eli Moon doesn't intentionally plan on harming creatures, just testing them, to see how powerful they are. And from what Anomalous has told me, she didn't clarify herself from you clearly. He may think you are a Clow card turned human, and try to capture you." Anomalous blushed. I didn't mean to confuse him, but you know what a hothead he'd been that day... Crystal refrained from replying, whether it was because she was unsure of how to answer, or avoiding an argument, I'm not sure.
Instead, she turned to Yue. "So I can expect him to be confused. So you watch Eli, Anomalous will watch me, and I'll explain."
Yue sighed. Such an innocent child, Anomalous. The card smiled. She's never been human before. Pretty soon she'll gain memory of her parents, and her innocence will be gone. A tear dropped from her eye, which Yue caught with his finger. He let it drop into an open vial. You'll still have your hands full. Anomalous smiled. I can hardly wait until she meets her parents.
Yue turned to her. You're being sarcastic? The card grinned. You have to be to survive a meeting with them. He turned from her. *Such an odd creature. I'm used to sarcasm in humans, not cards.*
