The Forgotten Magic: The Stars

Section One; Chapter Four - The First Star

After yesterday's experience, Sakura immediately telephoned Syaoran and Tomoyo to tell them what had happened. Sakura knew she would need their help capturing the star that Sunnie had said was at the zoo.

They decided to go at night, so that no one would see. Nymn and Doulg came along with Sakura, Tomoyo, and Syaoran. They were experienced in magic too. Touya had decided to stay with Kero and Hui to watch over Sunnie.

Everyone walked together except Syaoran, who was busy being jealous that Sakura was talking with Doulg.

"Where did Sunnie say it was again?" Tomoyo asked Nymn, "Where in the zoo?"

"She said something about seeing a giant penguin in her dream."

"The penguin's slide?"

"That must be it."

When they arrived at the near empty zoo, Sakura had some last minute questions, "How do I capture the star again?"

Syaoran crossed his eyes, "They've told you about fifty times already"

Doulg ignored Syaoran and answered Sakura's question, "All you have to do is find out what the star's name is, say it out loud, and command it to return to it's original form."

"That's sounds easy enough." Tomoyo was sure that Sakura could do this.

Doulg held up his index finger, "Not so fast, Sakura also has to make the star believe that she is strong enough to capture it."

"Oh, well, okay" Tomoyo looked at Sakura, "Good luck Sakura!"

Sakura had a sweat-drop fall down the back of her head, "Thanks Tomoyo."

Tomoyo gave her a big smile, "No problem Sakura!"

Syaoran pointed at the penguin slide, "Look!"

They all ran towards the slide, Syaoran got there first. A yellow light filled the area, Nymn gasped, "I know that one! It's from our homeland in Australia!"

Doulg took a few seconds to compose himself from the sprint, "Ithat's knowledge!"

Sakura ran to the light, "You're knowledge, I command you to return to your original form!"

The light shaped itself into a bright yellow star. It sprouted wings and flew through the air. A loud booming voice called out form it, "Why do you believe yourself to be strong enough to capture me, the star of all knowledge?"

"Knowledge! I understand the legend of the stars!"

Syaoran was puzzled, "How did she know what to say?"

Nymn closed his eyes, "The words, they come from her heart."

Sakura grasped the star necklace as the star spoke to her, "You have proven yourself worthy by your knowledge of the stars, because of this you are ready."

The star shot into the necklace, as there was a blinding yellow light. Everyone shielded their eyes.

When the light dimmed, Sakura looked down at the star necklace and saw a bright yellow charm on the necklace.
