Chapter 3 (Finally up!)

***Reader's P.O.V***
"Urgh! That was SO humiliating!" Heather screamed out in frustration.
"Yeah! But look on the bright side, my dear. Those idiots don't know what we're doing right now. With Syaoran's temper, Sakura is bound to fall," Micheal smirked.
"I guess so... but isn't there a way you could fast forward the spell?" Heather asked, anger flashing in her eyes.
"We must be patient. 40 years ago, the mistress nearly lost the war on the dark side. We were lucky and are able to escape from fighting that magician, Clow Reed. However, to protect our powers, our mistress had given up her life. She had managed to conceal the powers in your bracelet. She made us sleep, so we wont age. Now that our powers are concealed, Sakura and her gang won't be able to tell that we have powers. With that, we have the element of surprise," Michael muttered, fingering with the bracelet.
"Yah, and to make things easier for us, she had also managed to cast a spell. Everytime a fight breaks up between you nad Syaoran, Sakura's powers will decrease. When more than half of her powers are gone, the bracelet will activate and we will have our powers back again," an evil laugh escaped from Heather.
"Sakura had already lost almost a quarter of her powers, looks like it won't be long till I can once again control the power of wind and fire!" Michael smiled.
"And me, the power of Earth and water!" Heather grinned, watching, as the bracelet glowed pink with Sakura's powers.

***Reader's P.O.V***
"So, that's basically it!" Sakura finished, smiling wearily. Eriol was wearing his usually calm, cool expression, while Tomoyo looked worried. Syaoran was scowling whilst both Rika and Chiharu wore expressions of awe on their faces. However, Kero wasn't paying attention to all these. He had something else on his mind.
"Sakura, you were able to use your magic without fainting since you've converted all the cards. What made you faint this time?" Kero asked, concerned.
"I'm not sure! Do you have any idea, Eriol?" Sakura turned to him.
"Well, I'm not sure either. If there's any magic present, I would know! We're able to sense magic around this area. Or it could be that you haven't been using your powers for so long that it sorta wear off," Eriol said doubtfully.
"I doubt so. Sakura's magic is strong, so even though she hasn't use it for a long time, that shouldn't explain the fact that she fainted," Syaoran replied, voicing Sakura's thoughts.
"I can't believe you guys kept this from us all this time! It must be so cool to have magic powers!" Chiharu exclaimed. Rika nodded in agreement.
"Well, I guess you won't believe me if I told you that Eriol had put my life in jeopardy before, huh?" Sakura smiled.
"What? Is it true, Eriol?" Rika asked, turning to look at Eriol, who gave them an innocent look.
"Oh, well. Now we need to figure what's happening to Sakura first...," Syaoran mumbled.
None of them know that Nadeshiko was listening in all this while...
****~~****~~****~~****~~****~~
*** Reader's P.O.V***
'My dear Cherry Blossom,' Nadeshiko thought worriedly. Something was definitely up, but she did not know what.
She had a suspiscion, but she wasn't so sure. Suddenly, Nadeshiko had an idea. It was risky, but circumstances called for it...
****~~****~~****~~****~~****~~ (At school)
***Reader's P.O.V***
The word about Heather's and Michaels's little 'incident' had spread around. While the gang was sitting at their usual table, people were crowding around them to see if the story was true. Just then, the cafeteria hushed.
Michael and Heather were walking in hand in hand, chatting about something. At that moment, they seemed to have found that something was amiss as the usual noisy cafeteria was dead quiet. They looked around and their faces flushed as they noticed people were staring and pointing. When they glared at them, the students avoided eye contact.
With that Michael and Heather marched towards Sakura's table, anger showing on their faces.
"What have you told them?" Michael demanded.
"The truth," Eriol answered simply, an amused expression on his face. Syaoran chose to ignore him.
"And I guess that you are blowing things up, huh?" Michael questioned, ignoring Eriol and turning his attention to Syaoran.
"Why should I? I do not wish to humiliate you further. And if you don't mind, I think your ego is too big for out table. Besides, your breadth is ruining my appetite," Syaoran smirked, dipping a fry into his ketchup and popping it into his mouth.
"You'll pay, Li Syaoran," Michael threatened, and with that, he stomped off, with Heather trailing after him.
"Well done, my descendent. Didn't know you had it in you. Kinda thought you guys were gonna fight," Eriol said cheerfully, neatly ducking Syaoran's fist.
"For starters, I don't wish to get detention because of him. Secondly, I_am_NOT_your_descendent!" Syaoran shot Eriol a dirty look.
Seeing this, Sakura quickly changed the conversation. "So, are you prepared for this afternoon's debate?" she asked, taking a bite into her sandwich.
"Yep! And I got some info on the opposite's team from a reliable source. So, at least I know what points to counter," Yamazaki nodded.
"Glad you won't waste your story-teling talent after all these years," Chiharu answered dryly.
"Just make sure you keep your promise about spending the night at your house," Yamazaki joked, earning a playful punch from Chiharu.

"I can't believe he didn't fall for it," Michael seethed, pacing around the dungeon.
"Yeah, and I thought we could get some of Sakura's powers. That incident at Burger's Place was SO not worthwhile!" Heather agreed, pursing her lips.
"Well, then, maybe we should push him past his limits," Michael smirked, an evil glint in his eyes.
"What do you have in mind?" Heather asked, rubbing her hands gleefully.
"Well, it's like this---- Wait! Do you sense it?" Michael asked, looking around.
"Sense what?" Heather asked, confused.
"There was a pink aura in this room," Michael narrowed his eyes, looking around.
"Must be your imagination. The only person who has a pink aura is Sakura. And no homan can break through the shield around this dungeon. Now get on with your plan," Heather tapped her foot imaptiently.
"We'll start a rumour about Sakura. Those two may be too dense to know it, but I can tell they like each other. With Sakura's reputation ruined, Syaoran's bound to come looking for us to settle scores with us," Michael grinned.
"Hmm... I like this plan already. I can't wait till tomorrow," Heather laughed.
****~~****~~****~~****~~****~~ ***
***I Think this whole story will be in Reader's Point Of View. -_-;;***
Nadeshiko listened worriedly. This confirmed her suspicions. With Syaoran's temper, Michael and Heather were on the winning side. The angels had allowed her to come down because they thought that she could help Sakura. But she wasn't allowed to reveal herself. So how was she going to let Sakura know what was going on?
Besides, Michael and Heather's powers were definitely getting stronger. The fact that they were able to sense her was enough to prove it. Unless...
****~~****~~****~~****~~****~~
And I finally finished! I hope this is enough to satisfy you... *sweatdrops* Cuz I'm gonna be busy updating 'Secrets and Being New'. As you guys can see, I haven't been updating that since July last year. *ducks eggs* But this time, I promise you that Chapter 4 of 'How Do I tell?' will be up with 6 weeks, at most. So, pls R+R!!!
Luv ya lotz,
