Dear Yume,
I caught my first card today! It was the Sand card, and it caused a bit of trouble today during my seiten* lesson. It filled the courts with sand, and we had to stop playing halfway through one of the matches. I couldn't do anything about it until night fell, unfortunatley, because I don't want anyone to discover the fact that I am a CardCaptor. Oshuro was so worried about me being recognized he made me wear an outfit I wouldn't usually wear! It was basically a bathing suit and one of my old shirts that is too short for me now. He said it would be easier for me to move about in the sand that way. It looked a lot like my old uniform I had to wear for P.E.
We got there a while after the Sun had set, and everything was so dark. The courts were closed and locked, but so much sand had flowed out of them through the fences so that all I had to do was walk up one of the sand mounds and then I could hop the fence. Oshuro told me I had to figure out where the main body of the card was before I could capture it, so I began to look around the courts.
I didn't see it at first, so I tried to focus more, and then I felt this sudden burst of energy and I knew where the card was. It had been right in front of my own eyes, but I hadn't been tyring to sense it, so I couldn't see it. It looked like a lady and had on a tankini-like top and funny, puffy looking pants. And it was glowing a yellowy-green color. I foolishly tried to run to it, and ended up sinking in the sand up to my waist. I had to go very slowly after that, and it took a while to reach the card.
Oddly enough, the card didn't seem to notice me until I shouted out a challenge to it. It attacked, as I thought it would, since it's not supposed to be a gentle card, and I was buried in the sand. But this was my plan, because then I thought it would go after Oshuro and I would have the element of suprise. I burst out of the sand when the card wasn't facing me, and cast the Dimesnion card to make all the sand in the courts and in the area disappear into another dimension, and then when it was distracted I sealed it away.
Then we heard someone coming, and they were carrying a flashlight so I had to leap in the bushes in order to hide. The person saw that all the sand was gone and ran to get help, but I'm not sure why since there really was no reason to. Oshuro suggested that we use the Dimension to get home more quickly, and to get into my room undetected, so I did. Once home I changed into my bedclothes and put the cards away in the Neo.
Oh, I also met a new neighbor today. She and her family moved in while we were away on a trip overseas, so I haven't had the chance to meet her yet. She's a year younger than I am, and she's going to be attending a different school than I do. Can't say I'm overly suprised, since no one from this neighborhood goes to the stupid boarding school I go to. She actually is going to another boarding school, though, but hers is an all-girls' school. She seems mighty stuck-up and I'm glad she's not going to my school. Not like I need another person to deal with.
But my Mum wants me to be friends with her. What a drag. I'm not sure she likes me either, so I can just point that out to my Mum. The girl's name is Momoko, and she kept going on and on about how an all-girls' school is clearly superior to a co-ed school, even if the co-ed one is a private school like the all-girls' one. I would actually hate it very much if I had to go to a school with only females, since the only friends I've ever really made in my life from the school have been boys. And one of them is dead. The other one had a crush on the one who is dead, so he's perpetually depressed now. Their names are Shiroyuki (alive) and Sotaru (dead). Sotaru died two years ago. It's hard to talk about it even now. Maybe I'll tell you more about them and what happened later, but right now it's too late to get myself feeling nostalgic and upset over something I just cannot change.
I love looking at the Moon when it's out. It's interesting how our days work here. Because our star (it's name is Marusei, after the original royal family of Tokei) revolves around us we have regular days like planets in solar systems do, and nighttime is like nighttime in solar systems too. The Moon is so pretty when it's out. It's very white right now, which is odd for the summer. Usually in the summer it's either yellow or pink, and in the winter it's blue.
It's late, and I'm sure Oshuro is getting bored alone up in my room. He's such a nice guy! Well, err, not really guy, but Guardian Myth. Well, nevertheless, he's good to have around. I told him today how I love having him around, because now I have someone to talk to on a regular basis. He was very worried earlier when I got buried by the sand, and he said he had begun to have second thoughts as to whether or not I was fit for the job. I can understand this fully, and it's good to know that he cares. I think if we're going to be around eachother all the time that we should care for eachother.
Truly,
Iyoneru
