A/N: Thanks you to all who have been reviewing!!!! You don't know how much
that means to me!! Sorry I haven't updated in a long time! I've been out of
town and I've had writers block for forever!!!
"Damn, I can't ever get it right!!!" yelled Clow Reed as he knocked down some of his spell books in frustration.
"I don't understand what's wrong," mumbled Clow Reed "I...I'm doing everything right!"
"Wait, could it be, only certain people can confine magic in one place?" wondered Clow Reed
Clow Reed's thought were then interrupted by a familiar voice, "How can you see in this place?" asked Tao as she stumbled into the dimly lit room "It's no wonder you can't ever get that spell right, with this much light you can't see the words in the book!"
"First, of all I'm not reading from a book, what I 'm working on is a whole new kind of magic!" scolded Clow Reed "And Second, I don't need advice from a stupid girl who doesn't know the first thing about magic!"
Tao left the room. It had been like this for weeks. Clow would wake up early and go straight to his studies, trying to figure out what he was doing wrong with his magic. He would stay up until the middle of the night doing that same spell over and over again. He wasn't getting much sleep and it was starting to show. When Tao tried to help him he would give her that same speech on how a great magician like him didn't need help from a stupid girl who didn't know the first thing about magic.
"Tao?"
"Huh. What is it Enlai?"
"Well you were looking so serious....By the way what is Clow-san working on?"
"It's supposed to be some new kind of magic that allows him to control different elements of magic whenever he chooses," Tao explained.
"Wow, no wonder he's having trouble with it" awed Enlai "It sounds complicated."
"Judging by how many failure speeches I've listened to I would say the same thing" said Tao "I've heard him mumbling something about having trouble summoning the magic into..".
"Into what?" earnestly asked Enlai
"Cards..," answered Tao.
Tao then went to the front door and swung it open.
"Tao where are you going?" asked Enlai
Tao looked at Enlai as the front door stood open, "To market." simply answered Tao.
"Why?"
"If I have to stay here and listen to more of the old man's speeches I swear I'll go mad and besides we're out of tea leaves, I thought that maybe some green tea might calm him down," explained Tao
"Do you need anything Enlai?"
"No, but what should I tell Clow-san if he asks where you are?" questioned Enlai
Tao thought for a moment and said, "Tell him I'm going on a walk."
___________________________________________________________________________ __________
As Tao walked though the busy streets of Hong Kong she breathed a sigh of relief. She then started to look for the tea leaves she was looking for. When she finally found some it was from the same cart she had stole from on Enlai's birthday.
"You" yelled the owner "You're that brat who stole from me!"
Tao handed him 200 yen "Here, I think that covers for those tomatoes I stole."
Tao put on a smile.
The owner of the cart eyed her suspiciously, "What's wrong with you?"
"Nothing I'm just doing a bit of shopping" assured Tao handing him 100 yen for the bag of tea leaves.
As she was on her way out of the market Tao saw a fortune teller tent. Tao took out her money that was left over, "Oh why not!" replied Tao as she walked inside the dimly lit tent and sat down at the table that had a crystal ball on top.
"I've been expecting you"
Tao squinted her eyes and barely made out a woman with long dark hair and many bight colored robes. The woman sat down at the table and because of the light from the crystal ball Tao could see that she had lots of make up on, the thing that caught her attention first was her bright red lip stick and eye shadow. She then gently took Tao's hand and solely read the palm.
"Something's about to happen to you that will determine your destiny." the fourtune teller slowly informed
Tao raised an eyebrow. 'I guess these fortune tellers are just a bunch of liars after all, 'thought Tao.
"Something that you will do will change the lives of many gifted magical creatures and people..."
Tao rolled her eyes. She teen noticed a strong light peer through the tent; it was the light of the setting sun.
Tao panicked. She frantically searched the pockets of her new robes that the "old man" gave her. She just gave the fortune teller all of her remaining money in her hurry to leave. "Keep the change!" Tao yelled out to her after she had run a ways from the tent.
"Where the hell have you been!?" yelled a very angry Clow Reed, he obviously had failed again with his magic attempts.
"What's the matter old man?" sarcastically asked Tao "Was that magic too hard for you?"
Clow faced fumed.
"I've had it with your comments!" Clow yelled.
"Same here!"
Tao then charged at Clow Reed with incredible speed. She took every chance she had at hurting him. She punched furiously left and right, she was blinded by her anger. She felt as if her whole body was surrounded by a powerful force that was all converting to her fist. Finally, one of her attempts hit him.hard.
Tao couldn't believe what she just did; she didn't think that she would actually hit him that hard.
Clow was limp on the ground. Tao walked over to him, he was just unconscious.
"T-Tao.." Tao looked behind her, Enlai was standing in the doorway, crying.
"How much did you see?" asked Tao, terrified of what the answer might be.
"Well, in case there was a good part, all of it"
Tao felt like she would rip apart. She promised her mother that she would protect Enlai.
"Enlai, I .."
Enlai then ran off .
"Enlai, wait!" pleaded Tao.
She then ran after him.
Hours later...
Clow finally opened his eyes. Slowly he got up. Immeadiately , a shot of pain went through out his entire body. He got back on the ground limp with pain.
He then noticed something beside his feet. It was a card.
Clow strained his eyes to see the writing on it. He barely made out power.
His eyes widened.
A/N: So was it exciting, interesting, or did it just suck?! Review if you want to, but I will greatly appreciate it.
