Disclaimer: We do not own CCS, Beyblade, Digimon… NOTHING!! We only own the computer and the computer desk.
Extra notes from Cassidy: It has come to my attention that this fic is a little bit confusing and that could be the main point to why we're not getting any reviews (or flamers).
Dilandau: FLAMERS?!?! MOOOOEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRROOOOOOOO!!!! *barges in with flamethrower*
O.O EPP! Dilly-chan! Go back home! I still need ya for my search for serebii fic!
Akira: -.- no way. He tried to toast me 5 times today.
Neo: you deserve to have some 'sun tan' anyways. Anyways, have you ever noticed that Akira and the other Guard Tamers NEVER get tan in the Digimon world 2 games after 6 hours of squad training everyday under the hot sun? And Akira's hair changes from red to blond while his eyes changes from silver to blue randomly like Cass?
-.- duh! He's my lil bro! *whaps Akira with paper fans*
Akira: x.x'''
T.K: HE COPIED MY LOOK!
Anyways, as I was saying before these psychos came in. This is a major freestyler RPG based fic so REVIEW! Not that I care but Natasha loves reviews. I don't care if anyone reviews it because I write for the sake and fun of it.
Hoshi: *drunk on pepsi blue* BOW TO ME! I OWN BEYBLADE, DIGIMON AND CARDCAPTOR SAKURA!!!
Kai: you don't even know how to pull a ripcord in a Beyblade battle.
Hoshi: I'M LIKE A BIIIIIIIIRD! I DUNNU WHEREEEE I AMMMM FLLLLLYYYYYYIIIIIIINNNNNNNNGGG!!!!! *jumps out the window*
Yue: o.O *pops heads out the window* hey Hoshi, remember to send us a postcard when you are in your afterlife ok?
Hoshi: FWAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAH *falling down*
…..while I deal with my insane guardians…the disclaimer Hoshi was trying to say is that we don't own Cardcaptor Sakura, Beyblade or Digimon. If I did, the world shall end and die a horrible death.
In the previous chapter…..
"So… they have arrived… I hope you are there too Yue… I will be awaiting your challenge…" the boy smirked evilly as he placed his headphones back on and made his way towards the park, with the beats of 9 inch nails music blaring into his ears…

Chapter title: One more addiction
Done by: Natasha Peterson
Edited by: Cassidy
~~ Penguin Park ~~
As the group made their long awaited descent, the whole park is now made of metal, from the slide of the playground to the trees and to the luscious dew coated grass beneath their feet.
It's the Metal Card…
The strong tingling sensation of that particular clow card caused the heads of the Cardcaptors to jerk up upon the strong burning forces of wild magic running free around the area they were all in.
…All except for Daidouji Tomoyo who doesn't possess any forms of magical powers and therefore – she couldn't sense that particular feeling like her other friends.
"This is gonna be sooooo cool!" she squealed for the 100th time that day. She focused the camera lenses onto the gang, trying to get a rare shot of the group by the shining blue light of the moon. Secretly, in her heart, she was really enjoying the way Eriol's posture was, the way the gleaming rays of the moon was reflecting his hair….
"…..I wonder what in the world we do ISN'T exciting to her…" Taichi sighed, glancing at the violet haired girl who was attached to her video camera.
"Oh….that will be VERY hard…" Sakura smirked playfully. "For you see…Tomoyo-chan here finds everything and everyone interesting."
"………scary….."
The group laughed but their laughter and happy moments-
(((Impmon: HAPPY MOMENTS?! **note: Impmon is Cassidy's hentai muse**
Everyone: O.O;;; AHHHHHHH
Cass: AWWW SHUT UP! I AM BOUND TO MAKE MY APPEARANCE IN THE NEXT PARAGRAPH! *whaps Impmon and locks him up in a Digimon dungeon for interrupting the holy-yet not so holy- authoress…*
Taichi: …..scary…
Hoshi: Is that the only thing he says?
Taichi: …scary….
Hoshi: ARGHHH!!
Cass: NOW BACK TO THE FIC!!! -.-' *Shoves the muses out*)))
"Did you feel that Taichi?" Natasha asked, shivering with fear but brushed it off as soon as she remembered to be brave at all times and showing fear while Cardcaptoring isn't acceptable for fear is what the enemy takes advantage of.
"Yes I do, he can't be back right?" Taichi asked, looking around 360 degrees, trying to detect where the enemy's location was by its strong magical presence.
"No idea that he has… But still, is he on to the challenge?!" Natasha nervously asked as the sensation grew stronger.
'He IS here, and he isn't alone. He has a partner with him!' Eriol thought silently to himself as he braced himself for the impact of battle.
The reincarnation of Clow was right! The sudden change of distance and strong increase in sensation of magical powers made the captors heads turned towards the North-west direction where two figures were seen, sitting on top a high lamp post. Through the dark binding shadows of the night, Eriol's foresight could make out the figure of a girl and a figure of a boy sitting …snuggling …closely against each other, balancing so perfectly on that steep small line of metal the lamp post had to offer.
"It's…a girl?" Natasha gasped in awe at the girl hidden in the shadows.
Taichi sweatdropped. "There goes the whole of woman hood."
"Great…we're probably gonna have to deal with an old witch." Eriol groaned, suddenly thinking of Madoushi.
"Or an old bat." Tomoyo chimed in.
"Either that or we're gonna end up dealing with a total bitch face." Syaoran glared at the figures.
"So you've finally showed up." replied the female figure. "I must thank you all for the compliment you have on me. First of all, I am not old and I am not a witch."
"Oh…you're so welcomed." Syaoran shot back sarcastically.
Natasha and Eriol was right, it was a girl!
Slowly, the girl stood up with her partner and placed her hands on her hips. "I was beginning to think that you were giving up on catching the metal card."
That was when an obvious fact smacked Taichi in the head. How could Natasha be so dense not to notice it? Ok, so it wasn't Natasha alone, but everyone!?
"CASSIDY!" Taichi yelled. "Holy Jeebus! Tell me that, that isn't really you?"
"Now that you've mention it, she does look a lot like Cass." Said a random individual from the group.
True enough to Taichi's words; their enemy had long flowing red hair with twisted red locks dangling from a tight and high ponytail on her head. She wore a gothic long strapless black dress with high parting splits on the middle of the skirt, high enough to see a bit of matching denim black shorts she was wearing underneath. On her waist was a dangling chain belt with a small icon of a skull. All in all, metal chains were wrapping this dark card mistress around as if it was a shawl of some kind. (A/N: Think, LadyDevimon who has chains all over her outfit.)
Her partner on the other hand, had dark blue hair that somewhat resembles those of Eriol's hair if it weren't for the spikier way it was styled in. To top off the differences, the enemy's partner had silverish blue fringe that framed the front of his hair.
"YOU!" Eriol pointed out.
"Yes, ME!" Cassidy pointed out, fiddling with the ends of her long red ponytail. "I am who you think I am. The magical force that you've sensed came not from me but from him." She pointed to the male beside her. "Don't ever underestimate the knowledge of the Black Illusionist."
The male drew back from the forbidding shadows of the moonlight and held out a fancy pocket knife and chanted something under his breath. Almost instantly, the small harmless pocket knife transformed into a huge gunblade with a small symbol of a phoenix carved in blood red Ruby at its trigger like hilt.
Taichi gulped as he found Cassidy's partner in crime aimed his weapon towards the group.
"Run while you can." Said the male in a monotone voice.
"….I'll give you my university money if the one standing up there with the gunblade isn't Kai Hiwatari."
Kai smirked. "Ok, I am not Kai. Happy?"
"No?" Taichi hid behind Natasha in anime style and huggled her until she was out of air. "WE'RE GONNA FUCKING DIE!!!!!!!!"
Natasha was fighting to get out of Taichi's grip. "CHILL!!!!"
Eriol swept gracefully over to the front of the group and held his staff in a defensive combat manner. "Everyone on earth dies after a certain amount of time. That's just a natural life chain. But one thing for sure – I am not going to die being killed by this blue haired Russian bastard and his bitch here."
"Oh really, Eriol?" Kai conked his gunblade so that its nozzle was RIGHT at Eriol's forehead.
"ERIOL!!!!" Tomoyo screamed and ran up to his side.
"Stay back Tomoyo!" Eriol yelled and tried to shove the purpled haired girl aside.
"No! I am going to fight with you!" Tomoyo slapped Eriol across the face causing the young the magician to recoil in pain.
"That's gotta hurt in the morning." Taichi muttered, glancing at their direction.
"If you're dead, what am I going to do?! I am nothing without you!" Tomoyo screamed, shaking the boy by his shoulders. "Think carefully Eriol!"
"….you'll get hurt…"
"Then let's get hurt together…." Tomoyo threw herself into the boy's arms and together they held each other in a tight and unbreakable embrace.
"Awww…how sweet…I think I am going to be sick." Cried the Black magician, shifting a gloved arm from her hips and over her chest to cross her arms.
"So get out of here if you are going to be sick!" Tomoyo glared back at Cassidy. "Personally in my opinion, I think YOU are the one who's sick."
"Oh really?"
Natasha was starting to hate the new transfer student already. She was a total different girl in battle. For once, her voice was low and deep (A/N: Think, Renamon's voice which is low and deep.) and its sound waves were kept at monotone level and each words were sugar coated with calmness. It was like the cry of death for any Cardcaptor who dared to step in her line of tasks.
The Black Illusionist's glance then shifted from the reincarnation of Clow and his girl towards Natasha and Taichi. Taichi could feel the ends of his hair rise as the older girl casts them one of a look similar to those Kai always wore on his face – that eerily calm look. The two watched as Cassidy's blue no, cold silver eyes pierced through Taichi's warm brown and Natasha's gentle green ones.
'I thought her eyes were blue in colour.' Natasha thought silently. She had knew Cassidy from childhood, that happy bouncy red head girl who was always picked on by the other kids in their small neighbourhood town, That gentle girl with a terrible weakness for Maths…somehow or rather, Natasha felt that this wasn't the old Cassidy that she knew. 'Just like her eyes…it changed from a shade of blue into a cold shade of grey…just like her personality now….'
While Natasha & Taichi, Tomoyo & Eriol are busy dealing with The Black Illusionist and her partner, Sakura, Syaoran, Kleo and Kero sneaked off quietly to search for the Metal Card.
"It's around here somewhere." Kero murmured. "The Sensation is extremely clear around this area."
Kleo nodded in agreement. "It could be because this card is attracted to Dark and negative energy and we have two Black Magicians in this area."
"We could use her as the bait." Sakura suggested.
"Yeh…when done, we could dispose her into the ocean and make her into a REAL fish bait." Syaoran crossed his arms. "Oh and we could make that Kai guy a bait for the blue whale. He's blue right? So he would make a tasty treat for the whales."
"Or for the Piranhas, hopefully." Sakura giggled and lightly whap her boyfriend's messy brown head with the edge of her staff.
"That is if the Piranhas, whales or sharks don't swim off upon their sight of those two." A different voice boomed behind the two lovers…er….4 lovers (Count in Kero and Kleo please?!).
"Who the hell may you be?!" Kai yelled into the pitch black.
'This should be an interesting sight…' Eriol thought, scanning the pitch blackness with his violet eyes. 'Whoever this fellow is, he must have no fear of the Black Illusionist. Obviously she is distracted. So is her partner.'
A teenager about the age of 17 stepped out from behind Sakura and Syaoran. He didn't wore any fancy battle outfits or carry an AK -24 loaded gun like weapon like Kai. Instead, he had a headphone set slung over his neck and he wore loose clothes. Under his left arm was graffiti decorated skateboard.
Any normal passer by could've regarded him as those badass no rule, no mercy skaters that hangs out in the endless rows of alleyways of streets, practicing stunts on their skateboards to the tune of rock hard metal or hip hop music.
Skaters as they might call it.
But what in the world was THIS skater doing in the middle of THEIR battle!?
"…Hoshi." A surprised word from Cassidy's lips broke the night's cold and uneasy silence.
"At your service," Hoshi's notorious grin and voice seemed to put the Black Illusionist at an uneasy pace.
"Oh great.....we're only here to catch a clow card. We're not here for some sort of reunion day!" Kleo grumbled and shot a dirty look at Hoshi.
"I'd rather go through Yue's final Judgement Day all over again then this Reunion Day." Sakura replied back in an uneasy and shaky voice.
"You can count me in on that." Syaoran wrapped an arm protectively over Sakura's waist. "Even though Yue could whip my butt in magic and martial arts any day, I'd rather be up in that Radio Tower fighting him over for the judgement of the cards."
"HEADS UP!" Eriol yelled, snapping the group back to reality.
A blue beam of magic rays shot through a nearby bush and headed straight towards Sakura!
"WATCH OUT!" Natasha screamed. "… Tear Card, refrain from your previous fears and accept raw powers from my tears! FREEZE!"
Calling upon the Freeze Card, Natasha managed to freeze the magic that came from the bush for some time.
"…holy Clow Reed….that was too close!" Kero panted and flew over to comfort a badly shaken Sakura.
Syaoran couldn't agree more with the 'stuff animal'. Drawing out his Lasen Board, Syaoran could clearly confirmed that the source of that magic did came from the area behind the large rose bush.
Natasha gestured for the 'good guys' to follow her quietly. Together, they crept into the thorny rose bush and true enough; the Metal card was standing right before them.
"Easy does it, this baby here's a negative card." Taichi warned the group as Natasha got ready to seal it.
The metal looked just as eerie as its name sounded. The spirit wore a long coat made out of aluminium metal that goes down to her feet, metal tank top inside and metal pants. In her left hand, she held a weird metal staff and on her face was an emotionless expression. No one could tell if it was a happy card or not.
"Sakura! Come here!" Natasha called out, loud enough for Sakura to hear. "We'll seal this card together!"
Sakura nodded and walked beside Natasha as she listened to her sister's instructions carefully.
"What we're supposed to do is chant our own chant in unison so that the Metal card when sealed, divides into two!" Natasha explained.
"…geez…splitting yourself into two upon sealing? That's gonna hurt." Sakura giggled as she got her staff out ready.
"Hurry up with ya?!" Eriol called out. "The Black Illusionist is gonna seal this one herself if you don't!"
"Sides, I think that Metal card's getting away!" True to Tomoyo's words, the freezing effect on the Metal Card was starting to wear off and Metal Card was already gaining more muscle movement.
"I call upon the strengths of love, ancient grace from distant above, Clow Card, release all your former fears, and accept new powers from my tears, under the name of Natasha! Rebirth! Tear Card!" Natasha chanted.
"I call upon the powers of my star, ancient forces near and far, Clow Card, discard all your former might and draw your power from my light, under the name of Sakura! Rebirth! Star Card!" Sakura chanted at the same time.
Instantly, the magical circle of Clow appeared beneath their feet as positive energy sealed the Metal Card. The group could feel the warmth and comfort of the magical circle as it drew out within the area they're in.
When both mistresses ended their respective chant, Metal spirit returned and divided itself to two and both returned to the mistress's hands.
"My first card capture… It was a blast!" Natasha danced in joy.
"You can say that again." Eriol grinned as he playfully patted Sakura's and Natasha's head. "After all, these two are the world's most powerful magicians-"
"That would never happen." A low voice caused them to spring out of their celebration mood. "It is I who will be the most powerful magician…soon…" The Black Illusionist spoke calmly but firmly. There wasn't even a hint of anger or irritation in her voice.
"Aren't you angry?" Taichi asked bluntly.
"….what is the point of getting all so worked up?" Questioned the Dark magician. "Being hot headed when you are a cardcaptor isn't a very wise thing to do. Furthermore, Metal Card is being captured already by those two midgets-"
"HEY! I BET IF YOU TAKE THOSE HIGH HEELS OFF, YOU'RE JUST AS SHORT AS I AM!" Sakura clenched her fists and gritted her teeth even though she knew that Cassidy would probably stand a good 2 feet above her; barefoot.
Cassidy ignored Sakura and continued her sentence. "And on top of that, as much as I hate to admit it, I am growing tired and the night is getting old and my powers are growing weaker. If I cannot capture the metal card….I will make an exception."
"…a what?!" the group exclaimed.
"Exception…" Cassidy repeated. "I cannot get home empty handed."
"MATTE NE!" Before Natasha could even finish her sentence, she heard a low chanting from The Black Illusionist.
No one could make out what she was chanting but all they knew was that she was talking directly to a small black choker with a small skull symbol in her hand. The chant was short yet dark but very soon, Cassidy unleashed a large scythe.
"……May death roam upon the heads of thee?" Taichi gulped upon the sight of the Black Scythe their enemy held in her hands as he hid behind Eriol. "WE'RE GONNA-"
"Fuckin die." Eriol calmly finished off his sentence for him as Taichi clanged onto the back of his blue robes so tightly to the point that Eriol thought that the garment would just gave way. ((Editor: DROP THE ROBE! DROP THE ROBE!!!!!! O.o; *sweatbeads* lalala…)) "And I thought Death card was scary looking in the tarot decks."
"You're telling me that. At least the pictures of death in the tarots don't have an illustration of an old bat." Natasha muttered sarcastically.
Cassidy didn't seemed to pay attention to whatever they were saying though. Sakura gazed up at the large Scythe – deadly it may seemed but she couldn't help thinking how well it suited the Black Magician. It was long like Eriol's staff and the head of the scythe was made out of pure sharp steel. The unforgiving look of the cold, grey steel head was sharp and curved; fit to slash the heads of humans and animals with great ease and swiftness. Metal chains wrapped around the handles of the scythe. It seemed that metal chains was now part of Cassidy's body now, every movements and steps she took seemed to be accompanied by the faint yet mysterious sounds of clinking chains.
Sakura couldn't contain the shiver that ran through her little spine, violent images of her and her love one being slashed and dissected by the Black Illusionist's scythe was just too vivid. Each imagined scene was generously coated by fresh red blood and clear screams of agony, the horrible melody of death and destruction. Distorted images of her friends began to cloud her mind as she tried her best to look away from the scythe.
"SAKURA!" Sakura snapped back to reality upon Syaoran's voice. Blinking, she found herself on her knees, sweaty and pale. A tall shadow loomed over her petite frame.
Stumbling, Sakura edged away from Cassidy as she drew nearer. Chains clinked as she swept over towards the sweaty little girl.
"SAKURA!" Syaoran yelled and took a step forward but found his pathway blocked by Kai who was heavily armed with his gunblade.
Helpless, the group could only watch as Cassidy raised her Scythe up. "Upon the dark forces of doom, through shadows of distrusted gloom, upon our foresighted agreement, I hereby declare under the name of the Black Illusionist to roam back into the darkness!"
"What is she trying to do?! Seal Sakura?!" Syaoran was confused.
"Heh…you'll see soon." Kai smirked.
"RETURN! FLY CARD!" commanded Cassidy to her raised Scythe.
Sakura gasped as the Fly card zoomed out of her clow book and towards Cassidy who strike it with her Scythe. Upon the cold steel's touch, the card undergoes dramatic changes.
The once familiar red background and Clow symbol was gone, it was just a black and dark purple card now and the name 'Sakura' was changed to 'CASSIDY'.
"Thanks a lot; I hope you don't mind FLYING WITHOUT WINGS." Cassidy smirked.
"Hey you old witch! You can't just take Fly card away from me!" Sakura screamed.
"Oh yes I can." Cassidy replied calmly. "And for your information, I am not old."
"Have you forgotten me so easily in the midst of your excitement?"
"Hoshi.." Cassidy's voice suddenly lost its calm edge.
"Oh man…I forgot all about that skater peep who was barging into my topic of piranhas and sharks earlier." Syaoran said as Hoshi made his way towards the dark magician.
Silence swept over the group and tension was high in the surrounding, forming a thick layer of uneasiness over the air. A faint mental cry of mystery hung over the thick layer of uneasiness and high tension.
"…Hoshi…how did you return..?" Cassidy slowly backed away from the skater. "I thought I sealed you in the dungeons, far away from the cries of magic…"
"Yeah Hoshi…spill it…How'd you ever managed to get your ass out of there?" Kai interrupted, lowering his gunblade from the 'good guys'. "I mean…the dungeon is guarded by one of the strongest magic ever, probably stronger then those of Clow Reed's."
"Hah! I have my own ways… like, Cassidy here; place a spell that magic from the inside cannot destroy…" Hoshi smiled evilly.
"No…" Cassidy replied, silver eyes widened in shock.
"I summoned YOU in your sleep to get me out…" Hoshi said, casually.
"NO WAY!"
"WAY!" Hoshi smirked.
'How could I ever let my guard down like that!?' Cassidy scolded herself silently deep in the shadowy conscience of her mind.
"I'm not buying that piece of junk." Kai shot a questioning look at Hoshi. "Even if you did manage to escape, your energy level would be down to those of an ant. You came in here without a single scratch."
"Simple. Both of us created a bond…an agreement when we first met, which was in the laboratory after her reincarnation that all her magic will not be against me in any ways, though my magic from inside the dungeon couldn't destroy it at all." Hoshi explained, remembering the bitter bits of memory from the past.
Fresh thoughts and facts crashed into Kai's head, hitting his brain and mind painfully like a large metal hammer.
"…You don't suppose…" Kai drew back in horror. "Cassidy met you first before she did with me, and created an agreement in magic?!"
"…yes Kai.." Cassidy hung her head down and leaned her slim body against her Scythe. "What you said was true…the first person I met and trusted wasn't you…It was Hoshi….That was why I couldn't create a bond in magic through you because my original magic is bonded through Hoshi here…and unless he breaks that bond….I am powerless when It comes to magic bonding…"
"One thing confuses me though." Cassidy interrupted the silence. "How can my magic STILL be against you!? Are you stronger then me?"
"I know you are more powerful then me Cassidy, speaking in terms of power, you are like 10 notches above me but the reason why your magic refuse to act against me even if I wanted it to is because you're in love with me and if a mistress falls in love with her guardian…"
"Voltaire never told me the consequences of falling in love with a guardian…." Cassidy replied surprised.
"Guardian!?" Kai screamed, almost crushing Hoshi's spinal cord. "Whose Guardian might you be?!"
"…Cassidy."
"…..Please tell me that I am dreaming." Kai groaned.
"..w..w..why didn't you tell me that y..you're my guardian!?"
"Voltai-"
"Don't use that old fart as an excuse!" Cassidy clenched the handles of her Scythe tightly.
"I didn't mean not to tell you either because, we shared so many things together, shared our secrets and we were honest to each other. I didn't tell you I was your guardian because; I didn't want to hurt you… Until HE came that changed OUR lives till' now…" Hoshi pointed out accusingly at Kai who was startled.
"You were head-over-heels for him, and you can't even stop talking about him when we're on our walks… Then, came the day that really broke my heart, that you two were arranged for marriage and a mission you two have to accomplish… together…" Hoshi sighed, feeling a tear trickling down his pale cheek.
"Hoshi…" Cassidy felt like kicking the lights out of Voltaire for doing this to her but then again…She loved Kai even more and Hoshi was..no….IS her guardian!
But slowly…her sadness turned into anger. Fresh waves of violent intentions swept over her body as she took on a new firm tone.
"Demo, you hurt me for not telling and you lied to me about everything you told me about yourself! How could you!" the upset magician position her staff in a manner that instantly told everyone that she was going to cast a spell upon Hoshi. A spell that would really affect him…inside out…
No one could distinguish the powerful spell that she chanted either. Eriol's best guessed was that it was in another language.
In the process, Hoshi grinned evilly but accept the spell. What he's not aware of is that Kai was watching him and he knew what's going on when Cassidy chanted out the last sentence. Then, immense lights surrounded them and Hoshi was now stunned, whether fake or not, but to them, it was more then enough prove that it was real. Upon the sight of the Black Illusionist, he somehow knew what he was supposed to do. Instantly, he got down to his hands and knees and bowed down to her the way servants bowed down to their emperors. He was to be her guardian in her twisted quest for all the Sakura and Tear cards.
From the beckoning backs of dark shadows, Kai stood still and watched silently. Somehow or rather, he didn't trust the new Hoshi. He didn't want to trust him and he never liked him in the first place anyways.
"How could you do that to him?" Natasha cried, in the arms of her admirer, a blushing Taichi. "He had to keep you knowing from the truth! He didn't mean to hurt you either!"
"She's right, though he's your dark guardian now; he is still the Hoshi that we all know from inside…" Taichi defended.
"Whoever he is, you have no right to do it…" Eriol shouted.
"How mean of you to do it too." Tomoyo cried
"I was never nice to begin with." Cassidy replied in a flat tone.
With another swift turn, she faced Eriol. "I have my own rights to do whatever I wish. You might be the reincarnation of Clow Reed but you're powerless now that you're stuck in a kid's body."
"And so are you." Eriol smirked calmly. "I bet without that Scythe, your magic is comparable to those of an ant."
"Oh really? I guess you do not know the REAL me yet so don't you dare jump to conclusions." Shot the dark magician back.
"Real you? What the hell do you mean by that?" Eriol frowned and scanned the red head. "You meant to say that you're a reincarnation too?"
"No duh," Cassidy gripped the handles of her Scythe tightly.
'A reincarnation…..but who is she in her previous life?!' Syaoran thought.
"…Remember how we used to argue back at the well in Hong Kong long ago..?" Cassidy broke the silence.
Eriol's head almost rocketed into the night air above. "…Madoushi."
Cassidy nodded silently. All cried in disbelief, excluding Natasha, Taichi and Kleo.
"No wonder your presence felt familiar…" Kero said.
"I can't take this shit anymore…" Natasha released a card, "Tear Card! Refrain from your previous fears and accept raw powers from my tears! MOVE! Send us to Sakura's abundance!"
In a blink of an eye, the group disappeared in thin air leaving a not-surprised Cassidy and Kai…
Eh? Wait... Where's Hoshi?!
"Where's Hoshi?" Kai asked, wincing at the mention of his name.
"I sent him to follow the brats in a form of a bug…" Cassidy quickly replied.
Time seemed to freeze between the two as Cassidy revert her Scythe back into a choker which she wore on her neck.
"…Let's go home…" She said slowly, looking at Kai's crimson eyes.
"…..fine…..let's go." Kai shrugged emotionless and strode forward, past Cassidy.
The Dark magician girl stared ahead at the setting moon. Daybreak was approaching soon and the once proud, glittering moon began to fade. She watched as Kai went on walking without another walk, leaving her to trail along behind…alone and guilty.
First
the good news
it's gonna feel very nice
then the bad news
you gotta pay a heavy price
rip tide, we slide we ride on a deep forbidden sea
under we go - o so slow
and you're hanging onto me
and I say
oh oh one more addiction in my world
oh one more connection to let go
oh flowing down the river
out of sight forever (from my world)
it's the only thing I know how to do
I reject you
but I can't follow through
I'd forget you
but you'd end up tappin' on my back door
somehow I lost myself
in a tunnel long and black
somewhere, at the end, I pretend
there's a way of turning back
take a breath
let it out
all the things you frown about are meaningless of course,
unless you're doing this for real I guess
I meant to but
I don't know what
is in the way and could I say
it's you I bet
I won't forget
maybe I'm not ready yet
To be continued….
