Littlewolfalex: The reason why they could feel four auras and instead of one. . . Is because the elder had split himself into 4 different people and with that. .. His magical energy split too. . .

Last thing that happened. . .

The man smiles. "I knew you'd see it my way. . . Mistress. . ." He throws down Touya and Yukito. He walks towards Sakura and grabs her. "Let's go. . ."

Syaoran lunges towards him. "Come back here!!" He yells. Suddenly, he was wrapped around by a vine of some sort. He falls back.

"I don't think so. . . Xiao Lang. . ."

Syaoran looks up to see his mother with a figure beside her. It looked like a counter part of the Wood only darker and sharper.

Sakura stands with her eyes closed. The man smiles, "Destroy him. . . and the other two. . ." Sakura gasps.

"NO! You guaranteed their safety!" Sakura yells.

The man laughs, "Never trust anyone. . ." She bangs against him. "Let go of me!!" He grips on to her and they disappear.

"NO SAKURA!!!" He yells.



Part Fifteen

Syaoran smashes his fist against the table. "DAMN IT!" he yells. "HE TOOK HER! AND I LET HIM!!!" Tears start to form in his eyes. "She's gone. ." He slightly whimpers. Tomoyo walks over to him and hugs him.

"Syaoran. . . It's okay. . ." He closes his eyes and holds onto her.

"They took her. . ." Syaoran moans sadly. Eriol sits in front of him with a sad look. Yukito and Touya were asleep, recuperating from their experience.

"We. . . . We have to go get her. . ." Meiling says softly from the wall. She stands straight from leaning against the wall. "We don't know if anything's wrong. . . We. . . Should go rescue her. . ." She ends.

Everyone looks at her, even the teary Syaoran. Syaoran stands up and nods, wiping away the tears. "I agree. . . We should go."

The other two look at each other and nod. They stand up. "Then let's go!"

Tomoyo squeals, "Before we go, put on the clothes I made for all of us!"

Everyone face faults. A small comment comes from Meiling's lips, "Tomoyo seriously hasn't changed. . ."

~*~

Sakura opens her eyes to find herself stuck in a prison. She groans as she sits up and holds her head. There was darkness everywhere and she couldn't see a thing. She runs up to the bars to find no one there except a small figure in the distance.

"Hello? Hello!!" Sakura yells out. The figure disappears and Sakura sighs. She slumps on the ground. "Syaoran. ." She mumbles sadly. "Onii-chan. . . Yukito. . ." Her eyes start to form tears which she brushes away. She looks for her key but only to find nothing. Her Sakura cards were also missing. "He took them. . ." She exhales in a panic, trying to calm down. "This is not good. . ."

The figure reappears in front of her. Sakura looks up in surprise. "Who. . . Who are you?" She asks as she stands up.

The figure smiles gently and quietly opens up the prison she was in.

Sakura gasps. "I-I. . . Thank you. . ." Sakura notices the figure was the same card that Syaoran's mom had used against Syaoran. "You're. . . . You're a Clow Card, aren't you?"

The card nods. She swiftly turns around and starts moving. Sakura blinks. 'I guess. . . . I guess it wants me to follow it. . .' Sakura thinks.

The card leads Sakura to an empty room except for something in the middle. Sakura looks around in amazement. 'Where am I?' She looks up to see a lone window where sun streamed into the room. 'How long have I been asleep?' She thinks. Suddenly, there was a smash. Sakura looks up in a hurry only to find that the card had broken the barrier around Sakura's items. The card hands Sakura the items and closes its eyes.

Sakura smiles, 'It wants me to capture it. . .' Sakura nods as she releases her wand. "Return to thy true form, Clow Card!" She exclaims bringing her wand down.

Before being captured, Sakura saw a small smile on the card's lips. Sakura takes the new found card into her hand. "The Thorn. . ." She mumbles.

"So I see the Thorn card helped you out?" Sakura turns around to find the man who had taken her and right behind him, Yelan.

Sakura steps back and grits her teeth. "Don't come near me. . ." She says glaring with her wand tightly in her hand and her cards tightly in the other hand.

"Now, now. . . We'll calm down as soon as we get the cards back. . . So. . . If you wish to get out of here safely, you'll hand over the Clow Cards."

Sakura glares, "IIE. . . They're not Clow Cards anymore. . . They're called Sakura Cards since they take their energy from me." She backs away, standing right below the window at the top.

Yelan smirks. "I don't think so, Clow Stealer. . ." She pulls out a Clow card. "As the true founder of these deck of Clow Cards, I command you, The Reflection, to make reflections of me surrounding Sakura!"

Sakura gasps as she watches Yelan's figure make duplicates surrounding her. She bites her lip as she grips onto her wand. Quickly she pulls out a card. "Fly card!" Wings appear on her back as she pushes off from the ground and flies towards the window. "Through card!" She yells as she closes her eyes hoping to make it out safely. From her position, she hears the Yelans' chanting something. She screams in pain as bolts of lightning hit her from all directions. She smashes to the ground. The two cards return to their card form. She groans as she tries to sit up, not being able to move at all.

The Reflection card returns to its card form as Yelan walks up to her. "Hmm. . . Any last words Sakura?"

Sakura moans as she tries to move. "Syaoran. . ." She mumbles.

Yelan smirks as she repeats her chant to call on lightning. A smash of the window brings on her attention. Yelan stops her chant as she steps back. Four figures land in front of Yelan. From behind them, the golden beast lands behind them, scooping up Sakura.

In the light, Yelan identifies them as none other than Syaoran, Eriol, Meiling and Tomoyo. She scowls, "What are you doing here?"

Syaoran turns to face Sakura. "What else. . . To rescue Sakura. . ."

Yelan growls. "You will not take her!"

Sakura groans as Syaoran helps her up. "I will beat you . . . .You can't stop that. . . I am the holder of the Clow Cards. .. You can't change that. . . The only thing you can do. . . Is accept that and understand. . ."

The elder puts his hand on Yelan's shoulder. "Come. . . I have another plan. . . Do not worry. . . We will get the Clow cards back. . ." Yelan slightly fumes.

"We will be back!" Yelan growls as smoke covers the two figures and they disappear.

Sakura falls to the ground weakly. "Syaoran. . ." She mumbles as she faints.

Syaoran catches her before she hits her head. "Come. . . She needs some rest. . ."

Eriol nods. "Yes. . . I think that would be best. . ." He turns around, 'I wonder. . . Was it really best to create this second book?' He sighs slightly, 'The best way to help Sakura is to get the second half of Clow Reed. . . Sakura's dad. . . But will he come?' He closes his eyes. 'We need to get the second book. . .'

Tomoyo turns around, "Eriol! Come on! Keroberos will leave us if we don't go!"

Eriol turns to face Tomoyo. "Sure. . ." 'It's settled. . . I must go back to Japan and retrieve Fujitaka Kinomoto. . . He still obtains some magic and along with that. . . the key in finding the second book. . .' He runs towards everyone else as he ponders how he will tell Sakura.
