Masterful!

Last time. . . .

Oh My God! They confessed! Sakura and Syaoran share a romantic moment under the stars and so do Tomoyo and Eriol. Isn't that completely, completely sweet? Unfortunately, Meiling remembers the problem with the Li Clan. She decides that she'll work it all out. Will that happen? In this chapter, Kero will explain what these new cards are and why Clow Reed created them. Will the news be good or bad? Oh no! They get interrupted by another card. But which one is it? Will the results be good or bad? Hope everyone likes! Ja!

Also, if anyone here reads "Switching Lives", I just want to say that the next chapter might not be out soon because I have writers block for that story. Okay?

To Reviewers: Thanks for reviewing everyone! I still can't believe that people actual like this story and are waiting for chapters. . . . . *grins* Thanks for the feedback!

Disclaimer: I don't own Cardcaptor Sakura or any of its characters. Kay? Now shoo people!

Part Seven

Sakura and Syaoran returns to the hotel room to find Tomoyo and Eriol kissing on a bed. Sakura sweatdrops. Tomoyo and Eriol stop and see that Sakura and Syaoran's hands were intertwined.

Eriol smirks. "I see you've finally done it, dear descendant."

Syaoran blushes and nods, "Yes, Hiiragizawa. I did tell her but you don't have to stop what you were doing just to see us."

Eriol blushes and Sakura giggles.

Syaoran looks at his watch and gasps. "OH no. . . I have to get home."

Sakura turns to him and nods. "Sure, Syaoran. I appreciate what you've done for me today."

Syaoran blushes. "Anything for you." He whispers in her ear.

She giggles. "Aishiteru Syaoran." She gives him a slight kiss.

Syaoran smiles, "Aishiteru Sakura." He was about to say bye to Tomoyo and Eriol but he turns to see them kissing. Syaoran sweatdrops and sighs.

He turns to Sakura, "When they're done, tell them I said bye."

Sakura giggles and nods, "Sure, Syaoran."

In Li Mansion. . .

Yelan paces, waiting for Syaoran to arrive. The door opens and Yelan expects to see Syaoran but instead sees Meiling.

Yelan snaps, "Where's Xiao Lang?"

Meiling blinks, "Um. . . I don't know where he is at this moment." She explains.

Yelan fumes, "Get to your room!"

Meiling jumps back in surprise and rushes up. 'Boy is she in a bad mood.' Meiling thinks.

Yelan continues pacing and the door opens again. She stares at it to see whom she was expecting.

Syaoran enters, humming. He looks up to see his mom. "Mom?"

Yelan glares at her son. "Where were you?" She asks.

Syaoran sweatdrops. He couldn't say that he spent the whole day with Sakura. She would explode. "Um. . . I was showing my friends around Hong Kong."

"You mean that Clow Mistress?" She says with a cold attitude.

Syaoran sweatdrops even more. "Yes. . .well, Sakura's a friend of mine too." He states.

Yelan glares at him. "Did you even remember that we had a meeting with the Li Clan to discuss your leadership?"

Syaoran sighs, "Mother, just leave me be. You know that even though I'm preparing for leadership, I cannot gain the leadership without marrying Meiling. You know that I will not marry Meiling no matter what." He explains.

Yelan growls, "Just. . . Go to your room! You, now, have punishment!"

Syaoran gasps, "What? What did I do?" He asks.

Yelan glares and walks out, "There's no debate. You WILL have punishment for what you have done."

Syaoran glares at his mother's back. 'She won't keep me away from Sakura.'

Next morning. . .

Sakura opens her eyes to see Kero floating in front of her. She sighs and mutters to him, "Don't do that."

Kero just floats there with his little arms crossed.

Sakura sweatdrops, "What's wrong, Kero?" She asks.

Kero points to the two new cards that she had captured, The Flame and The Nightmare. "Why didn't you tell me that you captured new cards?!?!?!"

Sakura sweatdrops, "Gomen, Kero. I forgot to tell you with all thats happened."

Kero pouts. "And you forgot to get me pudding!!" He blurts out.

Sakura sweatdrops. "Kero!" She looks around for Tomoyo and Eriol to see the room empty. "Where's Tomoyo and Eriol?"

"They went to get food." Kero says staring at the cards.

Sakura notices Kero's actions, "Kero? Do you know about these cards?" She asks.

Kero sighs, "The uncompleted book's been opened."

Sakura blinks in confusion, "Nani?"

Kero sits down, "Sakura, Clow Reed created another book but he never had the time to finish it."

"And I'm guessing that it's almost the same thing as the other book?" She asks.

Kero shakes his head. "This book was more powerful than the original book. The cards inside were mostly the same as the original cards except that some names were changed. The Flame and Firey are the same except that The Flame's more powerful."

Sakura sighs, "But what about The Nightmare card?"

"The Nightmare Card is one of the other cards. He made some of the cards be the opposite of the original. The Nightmare's the opposite of The Dream Card."

Sakura nods, "Do you know which cards did he use?"

Kero shakes his head, "He never told me what cards he used. All I know is that he used 20 cards."

Sakura sighs, "Looks like this was only the beginning."

At those words, Tomoyo and Eriol enter.

"Ohayo, Sakura!" Tomoyo greets.

Eriol smiles, "Ohayo Sakura."

Sakura grins, "Ohayo Tomoyo. Ohayo Eriol."

Eriol sighs, "What are you going to do today, Sakura?"

"I'm going to visit Syaoran." She grins.

Tomoyo giggles, "Are you just going to visit, Sakura?"

Sakura blushes, "TOMOYO!"

Eriol chuckles, "Be careful, Sakura. There are still those cards on the loose."

Sakura nods, "It's okay Eriol. I'll be okay."

In a few hours. . .

Sakura knocks on Syaoran's door. Meiling opens the door.

"Ohayo Meiling!" Sakura greets.

Meiling smiles slightly, "Ohayo Sakura."

"Can I talk to Syaoran?"

A voice is heard in the back, "No you may not." Sakura hears.

Meiling slightly moves back to show Yelan.

Sakura bows in respect. "Thank you for telling me. I guess that I'll see him at another time."

Yelan glares, "Actually, you can not see him for a while. He's on punishment."

Sakura blinks in confusion and turns to Meiling. Meiling sighs and nods.

"What. . . .What for?" She asks politely.

"He missed a very important meeting with the Li Clan yesterday." Yelan says coldly.

Sakura gasps. 'It's all my fault.' She thinks mournfully.

"Um. . . Arigato. . ." She mumbles. "Bye." Sakura bows respectfully and leaves.

Yelan stares at Meiling. "Never. . . NEVER let her in here again."

Meiling rolls her eyes and walks out. "You can't stop the inevitable." She mumbles.

Yelan glares at Meiling's back. "She knows something." She mutters then walks out.

With Sakura. . .

Sakura walks around a park that she had found. Out of nowhere, a piercing noise fills the air. Sakura covers her ears in pain. Everyone could hear the noise. Sakura closes her eyes quickly hoping not to cry from the pain. She quickly called her wand and called on Shield. She opens her ears to hear nothing. She exhales and walks around, checking to see what damage there was. Tears fall on her face as she sees people sprawled all over the place, all fainted.

"Oh no. . . It's another Clow Card." She mutters.

"Correct!" Sakura hears someone say beside her. She turns to see Kero.

"Kero! When'd you get here?" She asks.

Kero sighs, "That doesn't matter right now Sakura. We have a Clow Card on our hands."

Sakura nods. "But which one is it?"

"Concentrate. Is there a type of card in the original deck?" Kero asks.

Sakura shakes her head, "None of the cards represent noise."

"Could it be the opposite of another card?"

Sakura closes her eyes. 'Noise. . . Noise. . .' She opens her eyes quickly as she blurts out, "The Silent!"

Kero smiles, "That's correct. This card's the opposite of The Silent Card. Now you have to concentrate on its main point is."

Sakura nods and closes her eyes again. She turns slowly as she tries to pinpoint the location of the card. She stops suddenly and opens her eyes to see a radio tower. She points it out to Kero.

Kero chuckles, "Of course, that makes sense. Now are you ready to capture another card?"

Sakura nods and quickly runs in that direction.

With Syaoran. . .

Syaoran hears a piercing noise and he quickly calls up a shield to protect himself. He walks out of his room to see that everyone had fainted. He closes his eyes and calls on his sword. He runs out to find Sakura and help her.

Yelan watches her son run out. "It's too late son. She's not going to be able to handle this card." She smirks and turns around.

Radio Tower

Sakura enters in caution. Kero tries to enter but there was something blocking him.

"Kero? What's wrong?" She asks.

Kero pounds on the shield. "I'm sorry Sakura but I can't come in. Only you can."

Sakura exhales and nods, "I'll be back soon. With the sealed card." She says in confidence.

Kero smiles, 'I hope so Sakura. I hope so.' He thinks

Sakura walks up the stairs to the very top. She cautiously stands on the last floor to see the visible form of the card. Sakura blinks as she notices that the card looked exactly like the Silent except that she seemed older or maybe even darker.

The card takes Sakura's entrance into mind. It smiles as it sends out sound waves towards her. Sakura stands in place trying not to fall. Unfortunately, the card's power was too strong and Sakura falls back. The Shield card returns to card form and Sakura holds her ears to avoid the pain. The card notices that Sakura was vulnerable and makes the sound stronger and louder. Sakura scrunches up her eyes to avoid crying.

"God of Lightning!" She hears someone yell out. The attack hit the card and the sound stops for a while. This gave Sakura enough time to call out Shield again. Sakura pants in exhaustion. She turns to see Syaoran smiling back at her.

"Seal it!" Syaoran yells.

Sakura nods. "Clow Card! Return to your power confined!" She yells out. Sakura watches as the Clow Card forms in her hand.

"Blare Card. . . Opposite of the Silent. . ." She mumbles. Syaoran smiles and hugs her.

"Great capture, Sakura." Sakura hugs him then she gasps.

"Syaoran! Aren't you on punishment?" She asks.

Syaoran blinks. "You heard?"

Sakura nods.

"Don't worry, Sakura. I'll come ever time you're in trouble."

Sakura blushes. "That's sweet. . ." She gives him a short kiss.

With Yelan. . .

Yelan growls as she realizes that Sakura had captured another card. "You won't get away, Clow Card Mistress. I will get you!" She exclaims angrily and walks away.

With Sakura and Syaoran. . .

The Master watches as the two kiss. He/She chuckles, "Another card. Congratulations Sakura. At this rate, you will show her that you can win. . . With both the Clow Cards and with the heart of Syaoran." He/She turns on his/her heel and walks away with a smile on his/her lips. (That's getting annoying!!!)

To Be Continued. . .

Another chapter done! I know that the card capture was kinda bad but I can't write action scenes really well. . .*sweatdrops* Well Ja! Please Review!
