Chapter 10
Shadows on the horizon
Part One
The sun light shown through the heavy pink drapes revealing beautiful auburn haired girl, with jade green eyes. Rolling over to face her chocolate haired lover, smiling as she looked at him. Finally remembering what she must do her face fell it was quite early. The sun was just raising it was time to leave. Sighing she rose form the bed and walked to the closet pulling the cloths that she would wear for the battle. Pulling out a black halter top, followed by a pair of black shorts the shorts had a picture of a wolf. The woman sighed looking back at her lover 'Syaoran I'm sorry but I have to leave without saying goodbye you must know that I love you.' pulling a leather coat that feel to the ankles out of the closet the woman walked to the bathroom to have a shower and change.
The woman reentered the bedroom and wrote a short note to Syaoran.
My Little Wolf,
I'm sorry that I did not say goodbye. I knew that it would be too hard and that you wouldn't let me go. Remember your promise, no matter what remember I love you. If I don't return please remember who I was not who I pretended to be. You broke my wall and made me fly thank you.
Love, Your Cherry Blossom
Sakura walked over to Syaoran and left the letter on the bed and she kissed him goodbye. It was too hard but she knew that it's what she must do. So pulling on her coat she left the room closing the door silently behind her.
Sakura felt her cards in her pocket, they were anticipating the battle to come. Ready to fight with vengeance, to take down the one that had destroyed their mistress's life. The cards were to make sure that no one stopped her in her trek. The cards felt around the mansion to check if everyone was asleep and most were beside some of the maids. Lastly the cards felt someone in the living room but it was too late to warn their mistress because Sakura was at the living room.
"Sakura it's good to see you up early unlike my son Syaoran who always sleeps in."
"Ms Li." Sakura stopped she was surprised to see her awake but did not show it on her face. Today was the last day that she would be emotionless she needed to be for the battle.
"Please Yelan not so formal." Yelan paused. "Sakura are you going somewhere?"
"Yes." Sakura headed for the door her back to Syaoran's mother.
"Sakura today is the day isn't it the one that Syaoran has been dreading along with everyone else." Sakura only nodded. "Yet you go alone. Like my son would. Sakura you are not meant to be alone." Sakura looked over her shoulder.
"Your son never told you much about me not that he needed to it was enough for you that he was in love. I am a loner I have been most of my life. It might not be who I am or who I was raised to be. but I am because I took on a job no one should take. a killer of killers and because I'm such I can never sleep the way I used to peacefully without a care. Like so many people can, Tomoyo sleeps peacefully and so does Eriol. I envy them." Sakura took a deep breath then continued. "Please don't be angry with me, or fault me if I die leaving your son brokenhearted. I have put it out of my mind at least for now. Please know that whatever happens I loved him with all my heart." Sakura started to walk to the door when she felt a hand on her arm.
"Sakura I will not stop you, I know how you feel and I would not change it my son has had the worst luck with girls." Yelan laughed and despite herself Sakura smiled. "I want you to have this I was going to give it to you at Christmas but I can see that you might need it now." Yelan handed Sakura a box, Sakura looked at the woman and was about to say something but Yelan stopped her. "If you do not take it I will consider it as an insult." Sakura nodded and opened it. Within the box lay a simple butterfly, the wings where the color of rainbows. It was small and unhindered in the form. Sakura looked up at her parent's friend a woman whom had helped her parents in the most dangerous situations.
"Thank you." Yelan smiled. Sakura was special and would one day change the world this Yelan knew deep down in her heart.
"This is a very ancient artifact no one really figured out what it did exactly. yet its very powerful so." Sakura nodded pulling it out and but the necklace on.
"I must be going thank you Yelan." Yelan stopped her.
"I know you are a kind of adrenalin rush person there's a bike outside waiting for you." Sakura nodded. Yelan sighed the girl was so powerful, the shadow of her past was she strong enough to defeat it.
Sakura stepped outside to stare upon a midnight black motorcycle with cherry blossoms swirling around it. The helmet matched it, Sakura pulled it on and started it up. The motor purred as she let it in gear and followed the drive to the gate. She sped up calling the Through card within seconds, she drove right through the gate without even a hesitation.
Sakura loved to feel the wind flying over her body it was just like when she was flying. Sakura rarely ever used her key anymore, not that it was trouble just that it was less obvious using her hands to direct the cards. Sakura smiled it was going to be awhile before she reached the docks. Sakura did not slow the vehicle as she came to a light. It was so early no one would be out. For the more powerful spells she would use her wand, like today. She flew through the red light without a backward glance. Suddenly Sakura heard a siren, she cursed under her breath she forgot about the cops. Oh well. Sakura pulled over and waited for the cop.
"License and registration please." Sakura pulled off her helmet.
"Are you sure that's it?" the officer looked at her with an annoyed glance then in surprise.
"Oh I'm so sorry Sakura it's just that well you did run a red light." "I did oh I'm so sorry it's just that I need to get to the docks in a hurry. I have to meet Meiling's cousin and if you know him he hates it when someone's late." The officer nodded and allowed her to go without a ticket. As she drove away she murmured.
"Stupid idiot, I swear if he messes it up I'll kill him myself." Sakura pulled the motorcycle into the next gear. Giving it a burst of gas, and flying through the empty streets. Sakura turned down a street finally looking over the bay it was beautiful at sunrise. 'This might be the last sunrise I ever see.. No don't think that way... I have to live.' she pulled up to the top of the hill and stopped.
"Yes you have to live it would be a shame not to fight you." the voice was harsh to her ears she had heard it many times. He was waiting for her expecting her.
"I'm coming," Sakura hissed. "I will destroy you."
"Come to me Avalon it's such a pretty name you have Sakura. they both fit you. You should become a vigilantly (here's a hint of the next story) Call yourself Avalon." Sakura hissed again.
"Bastard." Sakura revered her vehicle and raced down the hill towards the docks, she was angry and she wouldn't wait to fight him she would do it now. She watched as many people started to leave the buildings heading to work. Many more cars started to travel the road. She whipped by them at an extremely fast speed scaring many. Within minutes she pulled to the docks. Sakura turned off the vehicle and turned to face the way she had come. From here she could barely see the mansion, by the time that Syaoran realized she was gone and arrived the battle would be over.
Li Mansion
Syaoran stood at the balcony and watched as the motorcycle speed toward town, towards her final battle. He remembered the promise and he could not leave he knew that. Syaoran sighed, she would be home soon. All he had to do was wait, he changed. He took the stairs two at a time finally entering the kitchen. He grabbed an apple and stepped outside. The cold weather assaulted his senses, it was very windy. He sighed he didn't want Sakura to fight alone. Yet he couldn't ask anyone to go because well he didn't want anyone to fault him for their death. Syaoran sighed sadly.
"Your worried about her aren't you?" he only nodded. "You shouldn't be she can handle herself." Syaoran turned to face his mother.
"That's not what I'm worried about I know she can handle herself I'm worried that she will return. different." Yelan smiled.
"My son no matter how she returns she loves you. She told me that before she left. So don't worry, she will return." Syaoran nodded taking a bite of his apple.
Tomoyo and Eriol
"She's gone isn't she?" Eriol nodded and watched as Tomoyo's face fall. Tomoyo was worried about her friend over the short period that Sakura was here Tomoyo had learned that Sakura had a good heart.
"Don't worry she'll be fine I mean she will return." 'I hope, I mean I am the reincarnation of Clow Reed and I don't even know what the outcome of this battle will be.
Touya
"Danm it she's gone why didn't I get up earlier." Touya sat in the living room his head in his hands wishing that there was something that he could have done but he knew that there was nothing he could have done to convince her but he wished he had.
"Touya you and I both know that there was nothing that you could have done to convince her I mean she has a will of steel." Touya looked up to see Makiko.
"Makiko I don't know are you sure that there is nothing I could have done she is my sister." Makiko smiled.
"And when was the last time she listened to you?" Touya nodded.
"Your right." Makiko walked across the room and sat down next to him. "Makiko why did you leave."
"I was needed. as a matter of fact the reason I left had a lot to do with your sister. I was there the day that she really became Avalon I gave her that name because I knew that she was not going to give up the fight." Touya looked at her and sat back in the couch. "Touya what else is bothering you?"
"Are you sure you want to know?" Touya said looking straight in her eyes. She was taking aback by the truth in his eyes, Makiko could only nod. "I think I still have feelings for you and not just a simple crush I still love you." Makiko's jaw dropped she couldn't believe it after all this time he had finally admitted it.
"Touya I. love... you too." Touya smiled and took Makiko face in his hand and kissed her without hesitation. Makiko allowed him to deepen it.
Meiling's Room
Meiling woke up to find that Nasai was gone. She searched her room and then in her nightgown bounded down that stairs. She ran through the living room where Touya and Makiko were making out. Meiling continued on not stopping. Into the kitchen where Yelan and Syaoran were talking about Sakura, and through the den where Eriol was sitting with Tomoyo. Meiling finally stopped in the library Meiling knew where Nasai was she knew from the day she met him he would go she didn't know why but she knew that he would leave her.
"Meiling what's wrong?" she recognized her cousin's voice it was filled with worry.
"I knew he would leave. I just didn't think. I guess I didn't. did you ever think that I would fall in love that fast. did you ever think that you would you see your great cousin the chief, crying on the floor for some guy that broke her heart." Meiling was really crying now, tears were streaming down her face.
"Meiling its okay, I'm sure that." Meiling shook her head.
"Don't give me that bull shit. You know as well as I do that he went after Sakura. he wont come back. that will be his grave." Meiling felt hands grab her shoulder and lift her from the floor. She felt the sharp pain on her face, and the other sharp intakes of breath around the room, as she realized her cousin had slapped her.
"You've already given up now that's the Meiling I thought I'd never see. You never gave up no matter what it was about. Most of all you never gave up on me when I became cold and mean. You brought me back don't make me your savior." Meiling smiled through her tears.
"Thanks Syaoran. I think that we should all go to the living room. it might help if we all talked about the past." Everyone nodded.
12 Hours Before Close to Midnight
A brown haired brown eyed woman walked towards gate 3-A. She had one carry on suitcase, the woman didn't except to stay long so she had only packed for a few days.
"The 12:00 midnight flight to Hong Kong, China is boarding now please proceed to gate 3-A." the woman continued toward the gate handing her ticket and boarding the plane. Within a few hours she would be in Hong Kong waiting for the battle. 'Soon it will be over.' The woman thought as the plane started to take off.
Docks
The sun was now well over the horizon, but the sky was still filled with many different colors. It showed over the water with beauty. A motor was suddenly silenced as a motorcycle engine was turned off. A woman removed her helmet and revealed her auburn hair. Leaving her bike she headed to the warehouse, the windows cracked and shattered, the doors were barely even there. The woman in her black cloths stood out in the morning light. The woman pulled a pair of daggers from her boots. The daggers were jagged to make a deeper wound. The woman slowly walked to the doors, she listened intently before finally deciding that no one was waiting for her. The woman whispered a word under her breath "Mist" and mist suddenly started to rise from the ground covering the floor in a thick watery vapor. As it rose above the woman's head and continued to veil the whole of the warehouse. The woman spoke another word "Silent" when she walked her feet made no sound leaving the way quite as night. The woman made her way inside looking around seeing the faint outlines of crates and boxes.
"Avalon it is nice to see you on time for once." A voice rang out over her making her skin crawl and her heart turn cold once again. "I might not be able to see you but I know you are here you are the first presence for a week." She heard a malevolent laugh.
"Jack come out its time to end this." His laugh ended immediately.
"What does the flower not want to play?" She heard a second laugh.
"Good idea Flower should come out to play but first its time for us to come to an end." She called flower under her breath, making her hide in the ground for the right time.
"Very well we will fight my pet but lift the veil there is no reason to hide." Sakura nodded lifting the veil that hid the warehouse. She looked over and across the warehouse to the opposite side directly across from her. In the darkness she could see blue eyes piercing through the shadows. "Good girl now tell me are you sure you wish to fight me. I mean you could come with me and together we could rule the world." Sakura smiled it wasn't an innocent smile like many people where so used to. She laughed without humor in her voice.
"Jack. tell me do you really think that I would spend my life training just to come here and give it over to you. Are you that stupid to think that I would ever even consider doing that? Oh wait I guess you are considering you thought that I wouldn't kill you for what you did to my parents." She heard a growl from the darkness and watched as the eyes hardened.
"I saved you from them do you know what you would have become living with them. Who they were going to marry you to. I am a prize compared to him." she heard herself growl and the cards in her pocket shake with anger as she thought about what he just said.
"Saved me saved me. Ha you never even considered how I would feel you just killed my parents for your own selfish needs. I was just a side token well this one you wont get. By the way you are in no way a prize compared to him your shit." She heard him roar in anger. "Getting to you am I. well come and fight me you bastard, and then we will see who is stronger." She stood in a fighting position and faced her daggers up ready and waiting for his first attack.
He jumped clear across the room coming down on her with such power that she could barely hold off his long sword with her daggers. He came at her again and again cutting her flesh and creating deep strategically placed wounds on her body. Sakura blocked most of them but she could feel her power slowly seeping away. That's when she felt the dip in his power.
"Flower now." At her direction flowers fell from the sky and vines shot from the floor stopping all moment in the room. Sakura smiled it had worked but it wouldn't last for long it was time to call her wand.
"Do you really think that you can beat me?" She heard his voice coming from the strengthening vines. She turned to face him her staff in her hand. "With your pathetic cards and magic do you really think that you can defeat me?"
"Jack you might be powerful and you might be strong, but I am fast and adapt at using magic. So you can either release me now or I will kill us both. Though I want to live it is a sacrifice I am willing to make so that you hurt no one else." There was no reply so she thought for a moment trying to think of the best card to use Libra for truth. "Libra I call you forth make him tell me the truth to the quest." her voice was cut off as Jack pulled himself from the vines and through fire at her. "shield." It came up just in time to stop the attack.
"Do you really think that I would give up that easily?" Sakura smiled and pulled out thunder.
"Thunder." Suddenly thunder streamed over the warehouse causing the place to light up and for that brief moment Sakura saw what she needed to see. Sakura circumvented Jack as thunder continued to attack. "Return." Both of the cards she used returned leaving jack to fall to the floor.
"Sakura you can't hide I know this place inside and out." She heard his voice 'he's searching for me he can't see in the darkness good. Now I should use sand to really trap him and.' she stopped her thought. "Sakura what are you going to do what would you like to know come on ask me." Sakura sighed this was not the Jack she remembered he seemed different almost as if he was a..
"Different spirit why Sakura I'm glad you noticed. You do know that Jack is here by the way he says hi. so tell me can you really destroy me without destroying an innocent soul huh. come on you can tell me." Sakura stood there finally realizing what she had to do to make it out alive sacrifice her own life. What a combination, give up your life here to survive somewhere else. What card would pull it out would make it so that she could destroy it..
Dragonia: sorry about the short chappy I wish it was longer its just with school and all I really want to finish this other story so the updates will be a little bit longer before I do.
Makiko: so what card is she going to use.
Dragonia: your back what happened to your make out scene with Touya.
Makiko: oh he had to go to the bathroom.
Touya: would you stop bothering her I'm sure that she has other things to do.
The two leave together.
Dragonia: anyway I really haven't had anyone say anything about the death scene well that's okay cause I know who's going to die. No one choose so I will do it enny meeny minny mo... oh sorry I can't say who it is. But you will learn soon.
Sakura: are you still teasing them about the death scene.
Dragonia: yes who wouldn't?
Sakura: it's the next chapter isn't it?
Dragonia: yes don't worry it will be a shocker at least I think it will be.
Sakura: you think everything's a shocker.
Dragonia: of course I do.
Syaoran: come on when do I get to have my scene with Sakura.
Dragonia: you had one already.
Syaoran: not what I wanted I woke up and she's gone what fun is that.
Dragonia: well sorry but I don't know maybe you will never be able to have it.
Syaoran: you're not going to kill her are you?
Dragonia: now why would I do that?
Sakura: because your mean and you are the author.
Dragonia: true but I have to do what the people want.
Syaoran: they will be at this for a while hope you like the story and please read again when Dragonia updates have fun.
Makiko: I heard that you were deciding on whom to kill.
Dragonia: oh hi Makiko. (Gets nervous)
Makiko: so who are you going to kill?
Dragonia: still haven't decided.
Makiko: good cause I thought that you were going to have me and.
Dragonia: WOULD EVERYONE PLEASE STOP GIVING AWAY MY STORY.

Dragonia: thanks.
Chapter 10
Shadows on the horizon
Part One
The sun light shown through the heavy pink drapes revealing beautiful auburn haired girl, with jade green eyes. Rolling over to face her chocolate haired lover, smiling as she looked at him. Finally remembering what she must do her face fell it was quite early. The sun was just raising it was time to leave. Sighing she rose form the bed and walked to the closet pulling the cloths that she would wear for the battle. Pulling out a black halter top, followed by a pair of black shorts the shorts had a picture of a wolf. The woman sighed looking back at her lover 'Syaoran I'm sorry but I have to leave without saying goodbye you must know that I love you.' pulling a leather coat that feel to the ankles out of the closet the woman walked to the bathroom to have a shower and change.
The woman reentered the bedroom and wrote a short note to Syaoran.
My Little Wolf,
I'm sorry that I did not say goodbye. I knew that it would be too hard and that you wouldn't let me go. Remember your promise, no matter what remember I love you. If I don't return please remember who I was not who I pretended to be. You broke my wall and made me fly thank you.
Love, Your Cherry Blossom
Sakura walked over to Syaoran and left the letter on the bed and she kissed him goodbye. It was too hard but she knew that it's what she must do. So pulling on her coat she left the room closing the door silently behind her.
Sakura felt her cards in her pocket, they were anticipating the battle to come. Ready to fight with vengeance, to take down the one that had destroyed their mistress's life. The cards were to make sure that no one stopped her in her trek. The cards felt around the mansion to check if everyone was asleep and most were beside some of the maids. Lastly the cards felt someone in the living room but it was too late to warn their mistress because Sakura was at the living room.
"Sakura it's good to see you up early unlike my son Syaoran who always sleeps in."
"Ms Li." Sakura stopped she was surprised to see her awake but did not show it on her face. Today was the last day that she would be emotionless she needed to be for the battle.
"Please Yelan not so formal." Yelan paused. "Sakura are you going somewhere?"
"Yes." Sakura headed for the door her back to Syaoran's mother.
"Sakura today is the day isn't it the one that Syaoran has been dreading along with everyone else." Sakura only nodded. "Yet you go alone. Like my son would. Sakura you are not meant to be alone." Sakura looked over her shoulder.
"Your son never told you much about me not that he needed to it was enough for you that he was in love. I am a loner I have been most of my life. It might not be who I am or who I was raised to be. but I am because I took on a job no one should take. a killer of killers and because I'm such I can never sleep the way I used to peacefully without a care. Like so many people can, Tomoyo sleeps peacefully and so does Eriol. I envy them." Sakura took a deep breath then continued. "Please don't be angry with me, or fault me if I die leaving your son brokenhearted. I have put it out of my mind at least for now. Please know that whatever happens I loved him with all my heart." Sakura started to walk to the door when she felt a hand on her arm.
"Sakura I will not stop you, I know how you feel and I would not change it my son has had the worst luck with girls." Yelan laughed and despite herself Sakura smiled. "I want you to have this I was going to give it to you at Christmas but I can see that you might need it now." Yelan handed Sakura a box, Sakura looked at the woman and was about to say something but Yelan stopped her. "If you do not take it I will consider it as an insult." Sakura nodded and opened it. Within the box lay a simple butterfly, the wings where the color of rainbows. It was small and unhindered in the form. Sakura looked up at her parent's friend a woman whom had helped her parents in the most dangerous situations.
"Thank you." Yelan smiled. Sakura was special and would one day change the world this Yelan knew deep down in her heart.
"This is a very ancient artifact no one really figured out what it did exactly. yet its very powerful so." Sakura nodded pulling it out and but the necklace on.
"I must be going thank you Yelan." Yelan stopped her.
"I know you are a kind of adrenalin rush person there's a bike outside waiting for you." Sakura nodded. Yelan sighed the girl was so powerful, the shadow of her past was she strong enough to defeat it.
Sakura stepped outside to stare upon a midnight black motorcycle with cherry blossoms swirling around it. The helmet matched it, Sakura pulled it on and started it up. The motor purred as she let it in gear and followed the drive to the gate. She sped up calling the Through card within seconds, she drove right through the gate without even a hesitation.

"Oh I'm so sorry Sakura it's just that well you did run a red light." "I did oh I'm so sorry it's just that I need to get to the docks in a hurry. I have to meet Meiling's cousin and if you know him he hates it when someone's late." The officer nodded and allowed her to go without a ticket. As she drove away she murmured.

Li Mansion
Syaoran stood at the balcony and watched as the motorcycle speed toward town, towards her final battle. He remembered the promise and he could not leave he knew that. Syaoran sighed, she would be home soon. All he had to do was wait, he changed. He took the stairs two at a time finally entering the kitchen. He grabbed an apple and stepped outside. The cold weather assaulted his senses, it was very windy. He sighed he didn't want Sakura to fight alone. Yet he couldn't ask anyone to go because well he didn't want anyone to fault him for their death. Syaoran sighed sadly.
"Your worried about her aren't you?" he only nodded. "You shouldn't be she can handle herself." Syaoran turned to face his mother.
"That's not what I'm worried about I know she can handle herself I'm worried that she will return. different." Yelan smiled.
"My son no matter how she returns she loves you. She told me that before she left. So don't worry, she will return." Syaoran nodded taking a bite of his apple.
Tomoyo and Eriol
"She's gone isn't she?" Eriol nodded and watched as Tomoyo's face fall. Tomoyo was worried about her friend over the short period that Sakura was here Tomoyo had learned that Sakura had a good heart.
"Don't worry she'll be fine I mean she will return." 'I hope, I mean I am the reincarnation of Clow Reed and I don't even know what the outcome of this battle will be.
Touya
"Danm it she's gone why didn't I get up earlier." Touya sat in the living room his head in his hands wishing that there was something that he could have done but he knew that there was nothing he could have done to convince her but he wished he had.
"Touya you and I both know that there was nothing that you could have done to convince her I mean she has a will of steel." Touya looked up to see Makiko.
"Makiko I don't know are you sure that there is nothing I could have done she is my sister." Makiko smiled.
"And when was the last time she listened to you?" Touya nodded.
"Your right." Makiko walked across the room and sat down next to him. "Makiko why did you leave."
"I was needed. as a matter of fact the reason I left had a lot to do with your sister. I was there the day that she really became Avalon I gave her that name because I knew that she was not going to give up the fight." Touya looked at her and sat back in the couch. "Touya what else is bothering you?"
"Are you sure you want to know?" Touya said looking straight in her eyes. She was taking aback by the truth in his eyes, Makiko could only nod. "I think I still have feelings for you and not just a simple crush I still love you." Makiko's jaw dropped she couldn't believe it after all this time he had finally admitted it.
"Touya I. love... you too." Touya smiled and took Makiko face in his hand and kissed her without hesitation. Makiko allowed him to deepen it.
Meiling's Room
Meiling woke up to find that Nasai was gone. She searched her room and then in her nightgown bounded down that stairs. She ran through the living room where Touya and Makiko were making out. Meiling continued on not stopping. Into the kitchen where Yelan and Syaoran were talking about Sakura, and through the den where Eriol was sitting with Tomoyo. Meiling finally stopped in the library Meiling knew where Nasai was she knew from the day she met him he would go she didn't know why but she knew that he would leave her.
"Meiling what's wrong?" she recognized her cousin's voice it was filled with worry.
"I knew he would leave. I just didn't think. I guess I didn't. did you ever think that I would fall in love that fast. did you ever think that you would you see your great cousin the chief, crying on the floor for some guy that broke her heart." Meiling was really crying now, tears were streaming down her face.
"Meiling its okay, I'm sure that." Meiling shook her head.
"Don't give me that bull shit. You know as well as I do that he went after Sakura. he wont come back. that will be his grave." Meiling felt hands grab her shoulder and lift her from the floor. She felt the sharp pain on her face, and the other sharp intakes of breath around the room, as she realized her cousin had slapped her.
"You've already given up now that's the Meiling I thought I'd never see. You never gave up no matter what it was about. Most of all you never gave up on me when I became cold and mean. You brought me back don't make me your savior." Meiling smiled through her tears.
"Thanks Syaoran. I think that we should all go to the living room. it might help if we all talked about the past." Everyone nodded.
12 Hours Before Close to Midnight
A brown haired brown eyed woman walked towards gate 3-A. She had one carry on suitcase, the woman didn't except to stay long so she had only packed for a few days.
"The 12:00 midnight flight to Hong Kong, China is boarding now please proceed to gate 3-A." the woman continued toward the gate handing her ticket and boarding the plane. Within a few hours she would be in Hong Kong waiting for the battle. 'Soon it will be over.' The woman thought as the plane started to take off.
Docks
The sun was now well over the horizon, but the sky was still filled with many different colors. It showed over the water with beauty. A motor was suddenly silenced as a motorcycle engine was turned off. A woman removed her helmet and revealed her auburn hair. Leaving her bike she headed to the warehouse, the windows cracked and shattered, the doors were barely even there. The woman in her black cloths stood out in the morning light. The woman pulled a pair of daggers from her boots. The daggers were jagged to make a deeper wound. The woman slowly walked to the doors, she listened intently before finally deciding that no one was waiting for her. The woman whispered a word under her breath "Mist" and mist suddenly started to rise from the ground covering the floor in a thick watery vapor. As it rose above the woman's head and continued to veil the whole of the warehouse. The woman spoke another word "Silent" when she walked her feet made no sound leaving the way quite as night. The woman made her way inside looking around seeing the faint outlines of crates and boxes.
"Avalon it is nice to see you on time for once." A voice rang out over her making her skin crawl and her heart turn cold once again. "I might not be able to see you but I know you are here you are the first presence for a week." She heard a malevolent laugh.
"Jack come out its time to end this." His laugh ended immediately.
"What does the flower not want to play?" She heard a second laugh.
"Good idea Flower should come out to play but first its time for us to come to an end." She called flower under her breath, making her hide in the ground for the right time.
"Very well we will fight my pet but lift the veil there is no reason to hide." Sakura nodded lifting the veil that hid the warehouse. She looked over and across the warehouse to the opposite side directly across from her. In the darkness she could see blue eyes piercing through the shadows. "Good girl now tell me are you sure you wish to fight me. I mean you could come with me and together we could rule the world." Sakura smiled it wasn't an innocent smile like many people where so used to. She laughed without humor in her voice.
"Jack. tell me do you really think that I would spend my life training just to come here and give it over to you. Are you that stupid to think that I would ever even consider doing that? Oh wait I guess you are considering you thought that I wouldn't kill you for what you did to my parents." She heard a growl from the darkness and watched as the eyes hardened.
"I saved you from them do you know what you would have become living with them. Who they were going to marry you to. I am a prize compared to him." she heard herself growl and the cards in her pocket shake with anger as she thought about what he just said.
"Saved me saved me. Ha you never even considered how I would feel you just killed my parents for your own selfish needs. I was just a side token well this one you wont get. By the way you are in no way a prize compared to him your shit." She heard him roar in anger. "Getting to you am I. well come and fight me you bastard, and then we will see who is stronger." She stood in a fighting position and faced her daggers up ready and waiting for his first attack.
He jumped clear across the room coming down on her with such power that she could barely hold off his long sword with her daggers. He came at her again and again cutting her flesh and creating deep strategically placed wounds on her body. Sakura blocked most of them but she could feel her power slowly seeping away. That's when she felt the dip in his power.
"Flower now." At her direction flowers fell from the sky and vines shot from the floor stopping all moment in the room. Sakura smiled it had worked but it wouldn't last for long it was time to call her wand.
"Do you really think that you can beat me?" She heard his voice coming from the strengthening vines. She turned to face him her staff in her hand. "With your pathetic cards and magic do you really think that you can defeat me?"
"Jack you might be powerful and you might be strong, but I am fast and adapt at using magic. So you can either release me now or I will kill us both. Though I want to live it is a sacrifice I am willing to make so that you hurt no one else." There was no reply so she thought for a moment trying to think of the best card to use Libra for truth. "Libra I call you forth make him tell me the truth to the quest." her voice was cut off as Jack pulled himself from the vines and through fire at her. "shield." It came up just in time to stop the attack.
"Do you really think that I would give up that easily?" Sakura smiled and pulled out thunder.
"Thunder." Suddenly thunder streamed over the warehouse causing the place to light up and for that brief moment Sakura saw what she needed to see. Sakura circumvented Jack as thunder continued to attack. "Return." Both of the cards she used returned leaving jack to fall to the floor.
"Sakura you can't hide I know this place inside and out." She heard his voice 'he's searching for me he can't see in the darkness good. Now I should use sand to really trap him and.' she stopped her thought. "Sakura what are you going to do what would you like to know come on ask me." Sakura sighed this was not the Jack she remembered he seemed different almost as if he was a..
"Different spirit why Sakura I'm glad you noticed. You do know that Jack is here by the way he says hi. so tell me can you really destroy me without destroying an innocent soul huh. come on you can tell me." Sakura stood there finally realizing what she had to do to make it out alive sacrifice her own life. What a combination, give up your life here to survive somewhere else. What card would pull it out would make it so that she could destroy it..

Syaoran: you're not going to kill her are you?
