Chapter 3   "Sacrifice"

Only two cards were left now… two cards… Sakura and Li chased the two flying cards to the ferries wheel. Li suddenly came to a halt staring grimly at the girl who was on one of the cars.

"Syaoran-kun do you think it would be possible if…" Sakura turned around as she realized that she was alone. "Syaoran?" she shouted. "No! Please don't leave me!" She thought as she ran looking for Syaoran.

"Sakura, please forgive me but… maybe just maybe I can defeat this thing…" Li Syaoran thought to himself. "It seems that the powers of the card captors and its guardians don't work against this card. But I'm not one of the card captors! I'm only a trained sorcerer!" He exclaimed as he jumped on one of the cars working his way up to the girl. Jumping from one roof to the other. The girl was on the top of the ferries wheel still surrounded by the ominous blue aura. Li reached the top and faced the young girl.

"Dammit! Go back to your card form!" He exclaimed. "I will seal you!" He shouted. "Force hear my plight, release the light!!!! Thunder!" He chanted as the golden light burst forth from his sword and attacked the girl.

"Leave me alone!!!" she shouted in the corner of the ferries wheel car.

Surprisingly, the force of his 'Raitei Shorai' deeply affected the girl.

"SYAORAN!!!" Sakura shouted as she saw the light from the ferries wheel. "That light…"She thought "Syaoran… wait for me!" She thought as she ran towards the light.

"Why wont you leave me alone?!" The girl shouted eyes beginning to fill with rage.

"Return already! Force know my plight, Release the LIGHT!!!" He chanted yet again as he pointed his sword towards the girl "Wind… come quickly!!!" The wind along with the thunder surrounded the enraged girl who was still inside the car.

"I SAID LEAVE ME ALONE!!!" She finally screamed as her aura flared all over the place.

"SYAORAN!!!" Sakura screamed as Li was engulfed in the blue aura that seemed to be a black hole.

"Sakura…" Li thought as he disappeared

"Syaoran… now everybody is gone…" she stepped back as she watched the blue light containing the girl fly away. "NO! I won't give up!" she exclaimed face full of hope as she remembered the words of Li. "yes!  I won't give up! I'll die trying!" she exclaimed. "JUMP CARD!" with those words she jumped up and followed the card to the clock tower.

Sakura stood outside of the tower as she stared up. She ran up the winding steps as a black hole came her away only missing her by an inch.

"I need to make it! I need to… for everyone's sake." Her head was pounding now as she avoided another one of the cards' attacks. Sakura now stood at ledge of the final step and was about to jump up on to the final ledge where the Clow card was.

"Jump… please… don't fail me now!" she begged deep inside her heart as she stepped back and jump. In the middle of her jump the little wings on her feet started to glow an ominous blue glow as it returned to its true form and flew up as Sakura fell down.

"NO!!!!" she shouted as she desperately flung her arms around looking for something to hold on too. Silence… the only thing that could be heard now was sakura slowly falling… and yet again pure silence. The 'clang' of a sword on the cold steel blue floor was suddenly heard. The boy in green tried to stand up slowly as he raised his sword and pointed it to the falling girl. He closed his eyes and chanted "Force… hear my plight…" he broke off as he almost fell back down on the floor "stand up Li! Sakura's counting on you!" he told himself as he slowly stood up from the ground and went back to finishing his chant. "Release the… LIGHT!" he shouted as he used what was left of his powers. A light illuminated from his sword as he stepped back to keep from falling. "WIND! Come forth and lend me your assistance!" he said as a strong gust of wind came and carried the falling girl to the ledge.
