Chapter 2 Strangers

Sakura and Kero landed slowly on a clearing, they had flown throughout the night, and Sakura is tired beyond words. Using her magic to keep Fly throughout such a long period of time is hard. As they landed The Fly card turned back into card form and went into the Sakura Book (A/N I know I'm being annoying but for people who don't know: the Sakura Book is where all the cards are kept, before when the cards were still Clow Cards the book was called Clow Book, with the symbol of the Sun and the Moon, now it's the Star) instantly Sakura dropped down onto the grass, too tired even to keep herself up. Kero immediately flew over to her with a look of concern clearly written on his face.

"Sakura, are you all right" he asked worriedly.

"I'm fine, thank you Kero," and with that Sakura dropped down onto the grass fast asleep (A/N if you remember when Sakura was turning the Clow cards into Sakura Cards, she falls asleep after because she is so tired, well this is the same situation).

Kero sighed and looked at his mistress, then said quietly "you've done well mistress, you've done well" and with that he curled up beside her staying on guard incase there is danger.

*~* Syaoran's POV *~*

Syaoran walked to the clearing near his home muttering to himself "stupid, crazy, good for nothing people! I'm not a toy they can throw around you know? Can't they just leave me alone for one second!" just as he was about to enter the clearing a sound above him made him jump. Syaoran looked to the top of a large pine tree, he saw someone about his age with dark blue hair and eyes sitting on a tall branch chuckling quietly.

Syaoran quickly glared at the figure and said "what do you want now, Eriol!"

Eriol looked down at Syaoran with a smirk on his face, he loved seeing Syaoran annoyed "nothing, my little descendant, nothing at all" he said casually and smirked again.

"How many time do I have to tell you not to say that!" Syaoran glared up at Eriol again who just looked amused, "what are you doing here anyways?"

"Oh, nothing, just, wasting my time and waiting for you."

"Great!" Syaoran said sarcastically "Just what I need, another person to annoy me with!"

Eriol just chuckled "so, I heard you got a new case."

"Yah, so what?" Eriol just looked at him, "Alright, alright, in the north of here, there is a small town, not really someplace really important I guess, but they said that they had a powerful witch escape from their prison last night. Said something about her killing a few innocent citizens and now they want me to investigate."

"Well," Eriol said after a few moments, "You are one of the best witch- hunter there is in this place, I'd say, if they looked you up, then this is probably something big. So what dies this 'witch' look like?"

"That's what's annoying about all this, is the fact that they didn't give me a damned description of what she looked like, just said that her mane was Sakura Kinomoto." And with that Syaoran started to walk towards the clearing again.

At the edge Syaoran stop, him dead in his tracks, a girl about 17 or 18 laid there, I seemed like she is sleeping. Syaoran looked at her again, she had long honey brown hair that grew till her mid-back. She looked so peaceful while sleeping that Syaoran didn't want to disturb her, just as he was about to leave the girl stirred from her sleep and woke up, he was once again frozen in his tracks, when he saw two emerald globes looking back at him.

*~* End of Syaoran's POV *~*

Sakura turned over and opened her eyes, it's been a long time since she had used this many magic, and she was dead tired, she around and saw a shadow stretching over her. Quickly, she jumped up and away from the shadow, then she looked up to see a young man with piercing amber eyes and messy brown hair looking at her with raised eyebrows.

The two of them stood there gazing at each other in silence, Syaoran with amusement in his eyes and Sakura with a worried expression. The silence was broken by a muffled sound coming form Sakura's pocket.

"Oh my God!" she exclaimed before turning around, she walked a few steps away form Syaoran and searched her pockets, to find Kero in one of the larger ones in her cloak, quickly, she looked back to make sure that the stranger is out of ear shot before turning back and whispering urgently to Kero, "What are you doing!"

"What?" Kero asked baffled, "Oh, I was just taking a nap, I was tired alright? But I wanted to guard you, so I slept in your pocket."

Sakura blinked, stunned, Kero actually guarding her? "you wanted to guard me?" she repeated.

"Well, yah, what!? Don't look so stunned!"

"Sorry," Sakura looked sheepishly "I just ..erm ..never mind. Kero, just please keep out of view, there's someone's here, and you don't want to be seen."

Sakura waited for her words to sink in, after a few seconds Kero flew back into Sakura's pocket and she could hear his muffled voice saying "I'll stay with you, in case you need me for anything."

Sakura sighed and turned back to the stranger, he was still looking at her, but this time, she felt another presence here in the clearing, nearer to the woods. She looked around quickly, the magic aura of this person was very strong, on top of a large pine tree, she saw a figure sitting there on the top most branch. Her eyes quickly darted back towards the amber-eyed man so he wouldn't get suspicious; she backed up a step or two and prepared to escape.

Syaoran was surprised how quickly this girl with emerald-eyes changed. One second she was just worried and a little curious but now she was all guarded and cautious. What made her attitude change so quickly, he wondered.

Before he could say anything Sakura spoke up, loud enough for the person on the tree to hear as well "Who are you?"

Syaoran raised an eyebrow "I might ask you the same, a young lady like yourself should not be here."

Syaoran studied her expression, she looked a bit worried, her eyes kept darting around looking for the best way to escape. 'Well' he thought to himself 'you won't get away so easily, not before you answer my questions."

Then to his surprise she turned to the tree where Eriol was sitting, "Can you tell your friend up at that tree to come down and join us? Because I don't like having someone behind me all the time. It's very nerve raking." Eriol slid down form the tree and smiled to her.

He walked over to where Syaoran and looked at Sakura with interest, "You're the Card Mistress aren't you? Your Aura is very strong and I sense the cards on you."
