Two Heart Combine
By Net
Chapter 17
The group was
sitting around the huge table of the city center's meeting room. They
concentrated all their attention to the boy who's sitting at the head of the
table. The Emperor Eriol. The ruler of the Empire.
"Everyone must
have been curious about what I'm here for." The Emperor began.
"That's
right." Said Touya. "Even there're so many thing that I want to ask
you but that's the thing I want to asked you the most. Why are you here?"
"That's what I
want to know too, your majesty." Said Terada. "I had received the
call from you a week ago and you told me that you want to meet me and
Mr.Kinomoto to discuss about something that's very important but you never told
me what is it."
Eriol looked at both
Touya and Terada. "I want you to help me change the world."
That sentence
stunned everyone. Sakura, Syaoran, Tomoyo, Meirin and Rika jaw dropped by what
they just heard whiled Touya and Terada had the serious look on their face.
"Could you
explained the thing you just said?" Said Touya.
Eriol smiled at him
then continued. "The Empire ruled the world for over 15 years but the
outcome was not pleased, so many problem had happen and after we studied it we
found that it has two things that cause problem. First thing is people don't
like having someone force them to the thing that they didn't want to do. And
the other thing is people have the feeling that they're not belong to the
Empire. Their nationality still run deep within them as many of them refused to
be under Empire's rule. They had formed the rebel force to work against the
Empire all over the world." Eriol looked at Touya. "Like you
did."
Touya looked at
Eriol coldly. "What is your point?"
"I'm thinking
about the way to solved those problem. To make people think that they're not
being ruled. To make them feel this is where they belong. The thing that
Imperialism couldn't do. I talking about changing the way of politic. I'm
talking about transformed Empire into "The World Government" "
Everyone was jaw
dropped by what they just heard. It's like they're being muted all the sudden.
"That why I
want you to help me." Said Eriol Smiling.
********************************
At the same time
outside the city center.
A guard was on
inspection when he was ambushed by a bunch of men in black. After they hide his
body in the nearby bush they looked up at the city center.
"The signal
came from here, sir." One of the men in black informed.
"Good, then
we'll go in there to get it." Said Colonel Hawk grinned.
********************************
"The World
Government!?" Muttered Terada, couldn't believe what he just heard.
"Is he
serious?" Whispered Sakura to Syaoran who sat next to her.
Syaoran, on the
other hand, just keep staring at Eriol like he wants to look deep inside the
boy's mind, to know what's he thinking.
"Are you sure
about what you just said?"
Everyone looked at
the owner of that voice. It was the boy with amber eyes whose now looked at the
Emperor straight into his eye.
"What's your
problem?"
"Talking about
changing from Empire into the world government. That's mean you will have to
change almost everything of the Empire and there're gonna be many people who
doesn't like the idea about losing their power they're used to have.
Especially, the high rank officer. You can expect many more problems to come.
So, I want to ask you again. Are you sure of what you're thinking?"
Eriol stared at
Syaoran. His emotion was hard to tell. He's not frown or smile. He's just
staring. Then, a smiled appeared on the Emperor's lip. "You're impressed
me Syaoran-san. To answer your question let's say that I know too well that it
wasn't an easy thing to do. I know that there's gonna be a long way to go which
we can expect more problem that thousands time harder than we could imagine
here but this is the thing that I had planned for long time and I won't stop
for anything until it finished.
"And what do
you want from us?" Asked Touya.
"That's the
pointed that I came here for." Said Eriol. "Because if I'm gonna mess
up with almost all the high rank officer of the empire. The help from the two
of you was very important. For Mr.Kinomoto, you're the leader of what could say
the best rebel force trooper in the world and you're gain trusted and respected
from the others leader of the rebel force all over the world. And the most
important is you're the most reasonable and easiest to talk to."
"You're extol
me to much" Said Touya with a little grinned on his face.
"And for
Mr.Terada as the mayor of the biggest trading cities in the world, you have
connection with all the trade cities all over the world which you earns credits
and trust from them as well as the money power. If we combine the man power
from Mr.Kinomoto and the financial power from Mr.Terada we'll have enough power
to converse with all the high rank officer."
"Why you have
to make it so complicated why don't you just tell them and let them do it.
You're the Emperor, you have the power to do it." Asked Meirin couldn't
hold back her curious any more.
"I think I can
answer that." Said Syaoran, looking at the Emperor. "Even you're the
Emperor you still have to depend on the high rank officer because they're the
people who actually runs the empire. To mess up with them especially with their
right and power, it might cause the problem and it might leads to chaos within
the empire and it so many innocence people, is that right?"
"Yes."
Replied Eriol. "And that's the thing that I will prevent it from happen at
all course. That's why I need your commander and Mr.Terada's help."
"I have a
question." Said Touya. "Why you want to do this so badly? Are you
gonna have anything from doing this?"
"Let's say that
this plan is what I want to do for a long time and I have my own purpose for
doing this but it wasn't the point here but from what I said until now,
there're noting that will be bad on your terms, doesn't it commander? Because
it was your goal from the first place that to change the Empire to something
better. This is your chance if you joined me."
"That's true.
" Said Touya. " Then we have the agreement here. My people and I will
support you for making your plan become true in the way we could but you'll
have to keep in mind that don't thinking of betray us because if you do we'll
make you sorry for that. You under stand?"
"You can kill
me by then if I do such thing." Said Eriol smiling then he turned to
Terada. "Mr. Terada, what are you going to do?"
"I had thinking
of what you said and I think it will be good for me and the rest of the trade
cities in the world, so your majesty, I'll join you too." Said Terada.
Eriol smiled in
satisfaction, as the meeting was successful. "Now as we finished with
that, now I'm gonna talk about the other reason that I came here."
He then signaled
Nakuru as she walked up to him and handed him something. It was a set of cards.
"That was the
card I found in Nakuru-san's bag." Sakura exclaimed as she realized what
it is.
"Yes, and this
is the reason why those men were after you." Replied Eriol, his expression
became serious at the moment.
"That's what I
had been curious from the beginning." Said Touya. "Why those men were
after those cards? I think it has to be some secret within, doesn't it?"
"These card is
the key to control the power that can move the world. It is the Clow
card."
"Clow
Card!?" Muttered Tomoyo. "Is it has something with "the
Clow"? The main host computer that controlled everything in the Empire as
well as the whole planet from the electricity to the military systems."
"You know well
Daidouji-san then you must know about the security system that was protecting
"The Clow" from outer invasion."
"Yes. I heard
that because of how important it was, there're thousands of protect that will
guard the Clow from anyone who wants to invade the system. I heard that
there're many people who tried to hack into the system but no one ever succeed.
It have to use a specific code to take down all the protect before you could
entered the system." Suddenly, Tomoyo stopped as something hit her mine.
Her face grew paled as she asked the question. "You means those cards
are…….."
"Yes,
Daidouji-san. These card is the key." Said Eriol. "And that's the
reason why those renegade want it so badly."
To be continued.
