A/N: Hey, I'm back. It took an e-mail from one of my readers to get me typing this. Writer's block can't stand in the way of a determined writer. Oh, wait, yes it can. *Blush* Ok, so maybe it went away.
Disclaimer: Don't own it. Yuri's mine, and so is Rainbow Falls, so don't go looking for it on a map.
Chapter Nine-
Naoko ran in through the main doors, ignoring the looks she got from the many people in the hall. She tore up the stairs and ran down the hall till she reached a dead end.
The others were right behind her and wondered if Naoko had gotten lost. That is all but Yuri who was watching with a knowing smirk.
'I wonder whether she remembers how to get into our wing.' She thought.
Naoko was staring at the wall in confusion, then the look lifted. She smiled brightly.
"Thought you could trick me, huh Yuri?" She asked.
Everyone looked surprised at Naoko's words.
All except Yuri, who's smirk grew. "Nope. Wanted to see how long it would take for them to surface again. It took longer than I thought it would, considering how strong you were. It's the same with Meiling."
Meiling looked even more shocked at Yuri's words. She was about to say something, when she heard Tomoyo gasp. She turned and looked at Naoko, who was glowing a cheery, bright yellow.
Naoko placed a hand on the wall, and it too began to glow. When the glow receded, the wall was no longer there.
Yuri applauded Naoko. "Well done." She said simply as she stepped forward, and bowed down in front of Naoko, her arm extending into the dark hall. "After you."
Naoko took a step into the dark hall, then walked to one of the walls. Seeing a torch hanging there, she raised her hand again, and a small spark of fire flew out of her palm, igniting the torch.
Meiling looked at what Naoko had done, and before she had time to think about it, she had walked up to the opposite torch, raised her hand to it, watched as her hand glowed ruby red, then as a small flame jumped out of her palm and ignited the torch.
Yuri looked at Meiling, a happy smile on her face. "So you too have realised your powers."
Meiling nodded happily.
"That's everyone so far, except for you Tomoyo." Yuri said, smirking at Tomoyo.
Tomoyo looked down at the ground. "Uhhh…. Not really. You see, every now and then, when I was taping Sakura's adventures, I couldn't keep up, so I uh…I would do something, I'm not sure what, and I would be able to tape all of what she was doing."
Everyone laughed at Tomoyo's statement.
"Tomoyo san, you will do anything to see your kawaii Sakura chan in your costumes or with Syaoran, huh?" Eriol teased.
Tomoyo blushed.
"Ok, enough teasing Tomoyo, Eriol." Yuri did a double take. "Eriol? How did you get back into your body?"
Eriol smirked. "I made a request to your Change Card, asking it to return us to our bodies. It complied."
Yuri frowned. "I'm going to need to have a talk to that card. It always did give in too easily." Yuri shrugged. "Oh well, let's see where Naoko wanted to take us." Yuri said, looking at Naoko.
Naoko nodded and began to walk down the hallway, the torches igniting as they went, lighting their way.
Naoko stopped in front of a door, about halfway down from where they all started from. She opened it, and everyone gasped. The room before them was simply stunning. The walls were painted in a delicate light purple, with tiny, intricate gold markings on them. A closer look at the markings would show that they were actually delicate cherry blossoms, or lilies. The furniture was still in terrific condition, the delicate feminine chairs and love seats covered in a light lilac material. There were three writing desks, and an elegant coffee table. The writing desks each had a flower engraved on them in gold. There was a cherry blossom, a lily and a tulip, one to each desk.
Suddenly, Meiling gasped and pointed to the walls.
The males of the group spun around, looking for danger, while Yuri laughed.
"Calm down. There's no danger. I think Meiling just found out what all the gold markings make." Yuri said, still giggling.
Yuri was right, Meiling had found markings made. On the wall in front of her, the gold markings, when one looked at the entire wall, and not just parts of it, made a picture of Yuri and Sakura in beautiful, yet simple morning gowns, picking flowers. It was like that on the other walls. There was a picture of Yuri and Sakura's faces, both with nearly identical smiles. On another wall, the picture was of Sakura and Yuri. They were wearing beautiful gowns that one would wear to a ball. On the opposite wall, there wasn't a picture of Sakura or Yuri, no, there was a picture of Syaoran and Jamie, wearing suits. They both were bowing slightly, obviously to the twins on the other side of the room.
Everyone looked around in awe.
Tomoyo smiled. "KAWAII!" She screamed.
Yuri winced. "Ok Tomoyo, we get the picture. You like it. No need to make us deaf. Of course, Mother did the same thing when she first saw it, after Papa was finished." Yuri smirked, then eyed Tomoyo and Eriol. "She then proceeded to cover Papa with kisses. Sakura and I found it so funny. I wonder if we'll have a replay."
Both Tomoyo and Eriol blushed, then Tomoyo got a sneaky look in her eyes. She looked at Eriol then screamed. "ERIOL KUN!" She rushed over him, covering his face in kisses.
"KAWAII!" Sakura and Yuri screamed in unison. Tomoyo stopped what she was doing to see that Sakura and Yuri both had video cameras in their hands, and they both had a starry-eyed expression.
Everyone sweatdropped.
"What?" Yuri and Sakura demanded.
Syaoran and Jamie looked at each other, then walked up to their loves, placing their arms around them.
"We're semi used to Tomoyo doing that, but from you Sakura, it's just scary." Syaoran said.
"So? Tomoyo is the half reincarnate of my mother, or half mother, however you want to say it. Of course something like this is going to be passed down."
Jamie was about to say something to Yuri, when she burst out laughing.
Everyone looked at Yuri, who had fallen to the floor helplessly.
"Look, *gasp* at *gasp* Eriol." She managed to gasp out, before her laughed completely overtook her.
Everyone turned to look at Eriol, then they joined in the laughter, except for the guardians.
The reason why they were laughing was because Eriol, after Tomoyo's exuberant attack, looked like he had been severely sunburned. His face was bright red, his glasses were awry and his hair was mussed.
Eriol sniffed then turned away. "Children."
"Oh, come on Eriol, no need to be such a sook. If it had happened to Syaoran or Jamie, you would have been laughing like a maniac, just like they are." Meiling said, pointing to the two boys who were collapsed on the floor. Meiling then winced as a loud "KAWAII" echoed through the room. She turned to see that Tomoyo, Sakura and Yuri all had identical expressions on their faces, (you know, the whole hand on cheek, head tilted to the side, camera near face, starry-eyed look?) and they were holding video cameras.
"Ahh…. Sakura, where did you get that video camera?" Meiling asked hesitantly.
Sakura lost the starry-eyed expression. "I don't know. All I know is that I wanted one, and it was in my hand."
Just then, Naoko let out a small shriek. "I found it." She cried. Everyone turned to look at her. In her hand she held a letter addressed to her in neat handwriting. Naoko carefully opened the letter, and with trembling hands she began to read.
Hey, it's Amber Dream here. This is just a short note to explain some things about the continuance of my story 'Sister Found'. Now I don't really plan on ending it soon, or at least not the plot line. You see, recently I've been reading so many stories about CCS/HP that I thought it might be a good idea to bring the CCS group, including Yuri, Naoko and Jamie, to Hogwarts. That's why the story has stopped momentarily. What I want to know, is what you readers think of my idea. Tell me if I should put them going to Hogwarts as a sequel, or still part of 'Sister Found' in your reviews or e-mails. Oh, and their whole going to Hogwarts would have a reason. The reason is…..I can't tell you, it would ruin the story. But please, tell me what you think.
