"Uhhhhh, maybe not Tomoyo." Sakua stood in front of the very familiar
mirror situated in Tomoyo's bedroom. The dress consisting of pink ruffles,
bows and alot of glitter and Sakura was blinded by the brightness of the
yellow. "Its too, uhh. Contstricting."
Tomoyo looked up "Aww it looks so good though! Umm, how about this?" She sifted through her closet and found a dress of dark green silk trimmed with gold.
"Its beautiful Tomoyo! Wow. " Sakura tried the dress on, it fitted her perfectly. Tomoyo tied the neck ties up and smiled at Sakura.
"It does look good on you! Shame I dont have any jewellery that goes with it."
"Maybe this would look okay." Sakura reached into the pocket of her jeans (that now lay upon the floor) and withdrew the Pendent.
"Oh my god Sakura thats gorgeous! Put it on!" Tomoyo's eyes sparkeled with a hidden greed. "Perfect. Now lets finish getting ready!"

"Its working Master, Its working!"
"Strike at the boy, then the girl. And kill the possessed."
"Certainly master!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Syaoran paced outside the restaurant nervously. "Its 6;31 they were supposed to be here a whole minute ago. What if something's wrong or Sakuras been hurt or..." the anxious male put his hand to his head in fustrated worry.
"Relax Syaoran, they'll be here." The cool voice of Eriol calmed Syaorn minimally. "What I want to know is, why the hell is there an Indian restaurant in the middle of Japan?"
Before Syaoran could answer a stretch limo pulled up infront of them. Sakura and Tomoyo hopped out, Syaoran flinched as he felt the power surge and was surprised that Eriol didn't.
Tomoyo and Eriol led the way into the restaurant, allowing Syaoran to question Sakura.
"Whats with the Pendent? Some one could notcie."
"I know Syaoran, Tomoyo wanted me to wear it, she is acting strangely."
"So is Eriol, he didnt even notice the power of that."
"Weird"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (meanwhile at a table in the restaurant)
"Are you ready?"
"Yes Mas...er Devon."
"Remeber the guy first then the girl. I suggest you do it someplace, quiet."
"The rest room?"
"Yes you'll need a lure."
"The possessed?"
"Brilliant."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Uhh Ill have the...... chicken curry!" Sakura tried to sound enthusiastic, when realistically all the food on the menu made her feel sick.
"Same here. " Syaoran studied Sakuras face. "Are you okay?" He whispered softly.
Sakura nodded look sideways at him "I think so, I just feel something draining my energy."
Syaoran frowned and looked around the crowded restaurant. 'Thats funny, I didnt think Indian food was popular in Japan.' His thoughts wandered as did his eyes. They all fell upon a girl sitting at a table with an elder man. An elder man with a necklace? And why did that girl look familiar....
'Stephanie? What's she doing here?' It clicked. "Sakura we have to go."
"Now?"
"Now. It all makes sense. We have to go." He stood up suddenly, scraping the chair against the wooden floor. The mysterious man looked at him and muttered quiet words the the girl.
"Well, we'll come too I just need to go to the toilet first!" Tomoyo grabbed Sakuras arm, "Come on!"
Sakura smiled apoligetically at Syaoran, "We'll be right back."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sakura drummed her fingers on the restroom sink impatiently "Come on Tomoyo we have to go!"
The toilet door swung open and Tomoyo stood, watching Sakura out of empty black eyes.
"Umm, Tomoyo are those new contact lenses?" Sakura backed away from the evil grin of Tomoyo.
"No. I have found power Sakura. And I want more!" Tomoyo lunged for the Pendant, only to be shot back by an invisible blast of power. Sakura turned to see Syaoran standing in the doorway, his arm outstretched.
"Syaoran!" Sakura ran to him wrapping her arms around his waist. "Whats going on? Why is Tomoyo like that?"
The tall male held her close, but before he could answer the were blown apart by a dark whirlwind. Sakura was slammed against the wall, and fell to the ground, Syaoran stopped himself from flying anywhere by creating a forcefield to rebound off.
Syaoran ran to Sakura, helping her up. A figure stood in the doorway blocking any hope of escape. "Hello Syaoran, Sakura."
"Stephanie, what do you want?" Syaoran held Sakura up, his arm firmly round her waist, her head rested on his shoulder.
Steph looked at him, her eyes no longer the cold brown, instead a sickening black. "Isn't it obvious? The Pendent." She held out her hand. "Give it and you will not die."
Sakura held up her head "You will never have the Pendent, you are evil." Steph laughed.
"There is no good or evil, only power and those to weak to seek it. ((Guess where from))"
"No."
"Do you wish to fight for it Sakura."
"If it must be so."
Sakura stood up, facing the dark haired maniac. She thought back to Keros words. 'The cards are inside you Sakura, call upon them from there.'
She held out her hand in the direction of Stephanie. "Lightning!" A blast of pink electricity hit Steph but appeared to do no harm.
" The cards wont work this time Sakura." Stephanie laughed, "Maybe you need a lesson in pain." She pressed her palms together and muttered a few untranslatable words. A icy blast of dark shot towards Syaoran, straight towards his heart........
!!~!!!
It went slow motion from there, I was face with a dark power I was prepared to die. But I didnt, I should have. Instead Sakura dived infront of me, throwing me something in the proccess. SHE took the blast. SHE fell to the floor. I did nothing but watch. A cold silence filled the room. I just stood there. I could have stopped that.
!!~!!
Stephanie fell to the floor as soon as Sakura did, a black cloud rose from out of her body and entered Sakura. What happened next shocked Syaoran. A card rose from Sakuras back, through a portal of light. He reached for the faint pink light it emitted, but it flew back. Slowly the pink light died, replacing it with a aura of darkness. The card itself spun racingly in circles, shedding its coat of light and replacing it with an evil ebony cape. One by one, all the cards did this, and Syaoran could only watch....
A/N longest chappy so far? I fear this is near the end of the story, sorry!
