Ch2 Cat Guardian

" We are gathered here to say good-bye to a very good friend and daughter, Sakura Avalon." The preacher continued on to say how she died so young, and how she could have such a wonderful life. Why you, daughter ? Why not me?thought Aiden, Sakura's father. Sakura, why did you die? We knew each other for a long time, why now? We said we would live our life to the fullest. Yet you died. Madison thought to herself. The service was over and everyone was saying their good-byes. "Funny, we could never find her body and we are saying good-byes to an empty coffin. I just wish I said everything I wanted to say to you." Li said to himself. " Sakura, this is Meilin, I just wish we became better friends, now your gone." cried Meilin.

After the service they went out to the graveyard to bury the coffin. They stood there while the tombstone was put in place. It said May you be remembered for all the wonderful things you left us. Everyone left except her family and the gang. They stood there quietly looking at her grave. " We should head home now. I don't think she would want us to be sad for her." said Tori breaking the silence. " Your right," added Li.(A.N He actually agreed with him!!). They left the site, with a feeling they were being watched. Two cat eyes followed their every movement. "Don't worry. Everything will be right soon." said a voice.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Next day at School~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Class, as you have heard Sakura Avalon is no longer with us. To settle the rumors that have being going around school I will say this, Sakura died in an explosion near the park. Her friends and family were taking a walk with her when she ran ahead, when suddenly there was the explosion. They ran to help her, but they were too late, she was dead. They could not find her body." stated Mr. Terada. If you only knew... Meilin, Madison, and Li were thinking. If you were there. They were still sadden that others don't really know what happened that night.

Luna said to them, " I can't believe this happened. I barely even knew her, but it hurts. I just wish there was some way to bring her back. I wanted to be friends but look what destiny chose for us. We get to live while she died, why must life be this way?"

The day continued on with people coming up to them and saying how sorry they were to hear that she died. Once the day was through the gang was heading home when a voice rang out, " Wait! I'm coming with you!" They turned around and saw Luna running up to them. " Luna? Why do you want to go with us?" asked Meilin. "Because I want to get to know you guys and well, I'm new to here and need help getting around." " I guess you can come with us. We are heading to my house to talk about... hey! Why did you do that?" demanded Tori. "What he meant was yes you can come with us to Sakura's house and we will introduce you to her father. Follow us." said Madison. They made their way to her house. It feels just like old times, us walking g to her house expecting to see her. thought Li. I feel like I have failed mother, I let harm come to my sister. thought Tori. They are sadden every time I mention the Cardmistress. Luna was thinking.

Soon they reached HER house. " Dad! We're here! We brought a friend along if you don't mind." Shouted Tori. " Not at all! In fact it would be great to have another young one in here, since she's gone....." trailed off Aiden's voice. The house it self went under a transformation. It was once light and cheerful, but now it was dark and gloomy. They had never realized how lonely it would be without HER. They all sighed and went up stairs past HER room and into Tori's room. " This is Tori's room, sorry you have to see this." giggled Meilin. " It's alright, but I want to ask you something. Who's room was the one we passed? Was it her's?" asked Luna. " It WAS her's." Responded Julian. " You know.... maybe I should leave, I mean you guys need sometime alone to get over this tragedy. I know how to get home from here." said Luna. " I think" she said to herself. With that she left the room. Luna saw that the Cardmistress's room was open so, out of curiosity, she went in. So Sakura, this was your room. Where would you hide it? In the drawer? The bed? Hmm? What is that sound? I must leave or else they will ask why I am in here. Luna left without a word.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Back at the room~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Alright. We know why were are here," began Eli, "We need to talk about the cards. Since Sakura did not chose a new Cardcaptor, I must find one. That one is in this room. Li. You are the one I chose, I am sure Sakura would have wanted it this way. Now we need to go to Sakura's room to do this ceremony. Lets go."

"Li you must stand in the middle of the room. Yes right there. No! Were you were before. Now Stay there!!! Alright now the Star cards please," Instructed Eli, " Here we go, Li, you were chosen to take the cards and protect them from harm do you agree with this?"

"Yes."

" Do you promise to do good with them?"

"Yes."

" Do you promise to meet any challenge that comes up?"

" Yes" said Li getting angrier by the minute.

" Do you-"

"YES TO ALL THE QUESTIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!" Screamed Li.

" Alright. You don't need to kill me you know!" shouted back Eli.

" Yes I do," muttered LI under his breathe.

" Now, lets continue. Oh Cards of the stars I ask you to leave your mistress behind and except your new mater. Star card I, Eli, command you to accept Li as your new master. Now Li you must raise the seal and put your own on."

" Alright. I, Li, your new master, command you drop your seal and except mine, Sword cards." commanded Li.

A bright light surrounded both Li and the cards. Soon the light settled, but the cards still had their old seal, the star seal.

"Why didn't it work? We both did our parts right unless Li messed up."

"Huh? What did I do wrong?"

You did nothing wrong. We must wait for the Cat guardian. She will be with us shortly.

"W-w-who said that?" asked Madison.

We did. The cards began to float above Sakura's bed.

" H-h-how c-can this b-b-be p-p-possible?" stammered a very shocked Kero.

We always be able to talk. We just didn't know what to say. Besides why waste such wonderful gift that make you look so funny?

This is just weird thought Tori.

Like we said we must wait for the Car guardian.

" But who is the Cat guardian?" Asked Li.

She was created after Sakura turned all the cards into star cards.

"Stop. I sense a presence. It comes from the park!" said Kero.

" Let's go now. We have no time to waste." yelled Yue.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The Park~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

" I see that you are here, but not with the Cardmistress. This will make it even easier." said a figure in cloak.

" I thought we got rid of you! Why have you come back? Why were you meant to live while Sakura was meant to die?" Demanded Aiden.

" You fool. Don't you see that I was going to ask you why you killed my sister? You killed her and now I will have my revenge. I will have you pay with your life!" cried out the figure.

IT was gathering energy into a ball getting ready to launch it. Li stood his ground ready for the attack. " Stay back," shouted LI to the others, " Don't come any closer."

" Just like her aren't you? Just like her will you die!!!"

IT launched the energy ball right at Li. He knew by one look that he was not going to make it. Suddenly he felt a tug ob his clothes followed by a pull. He was pulled just in time! One second longer and he would have been history.

"What? How can this be? You! I should have know! How could I be so dumb? Oh well, I'll get rid of you too."

" No you won't! I will protect them with my life! As for you I will destroy you." shouted a voice.

There was a beam of light and a scream. " I am weak. but I will come back to finish what I began. Mark my words." The figure vanished into thin air.

You are here now. What took you so long?

" I was a little sidetracked, but I'm here now." explained the voice.

" If you are who we think you are please step were we can see you." said Eli.

" Very well."

They could see a paw and a leg. Soon it's face and body ending with a long tail. IT looked just like the dash card except the ends of it's paws, ears, and tail was pink and it's body was purple.

" I am the Cat Guardian, protector of the cards and Sakura's friends. I know of my maters death. This is why I am here. I was to awaken when she died. Now I wish I got to know her better."

" Umm... do you have an other name? Beside Cat Guardian?" asked Meilin.

" Yes I do. It is..."
