CHAPTER 4 ~ A NEW DANGER

"Kinomoto Sakura, will you marry me?"

Sakura started at him for a moment then said, "Yes, I will marry you, Li Syaoran"

Syaoran smiled, stood up, looked deeply into her Emerald pools and said, "Thank-you my Cherry Blossom, I promise you I'll never leave you again" "I believe you Syaoran" "Good" and he kissed her passionately on the lips.

What's the time Tomoyo?" Sakura asked when they broke apart a few moments later. "12:15" "Ahh, I'm late!" "What's wrong Sakura?" asked Syaoran. "I promised Touya I'd help him make the casserole for tea tonight" "Oh, well would you like me to walk you home?" he asked, a bit bitterly from hearing the name 'Touya'. "No it's ok" "You sure" "Yep" "Alright, but be careful then" he said seriously. "Don't worry I will"

"Hey, aren't you forgetting something?" Syaoran asked when she was about to open the door. "What?" she asked. "This" and he kissed her again on the lips, then traveled down her neck, placing little butterfly kisses on her as her went, finally coming back up to meet her lips once more. "Mmm, yummy" he mumbled in the kiss making her laugh. "Ok, I really have to go" she said through giggles. "Ok" he said then giving her one last kiss. "I'll see you all tomorrow and thanks for the party!" "Bye Sakura" said Melin, Naoko and Chiharu together. "Bye" said Sakura and closed the door.

"Don't worry my cute little descendant, she'll be fine" "Yeah and Eriol, can you do me a favor?" "Anything my cute little descendant" "STOP CALLING ME YOUR CUTE LITTLE DESCENDANT!!" "What ever you say..my cute little descendant" "ERIOL!"

"How long do you think this will go on for?" asked Rika. "A while" said Melin as she watched the 2 boys argue.

Sakura.

I can't believe I'm engaged to the guy who once hated my guts and said I was a pathetic Card Captor" Sakura said smiling, remembering when they met.

# Flash Back #

Mr Terada: "Today I will introduce a new transfer student, Please come in." Tomoyo: "How strange, to get a transfer student at this time of year."

The new student enters. Sakura looks frightened. He stares at her angrily. She sweatdrops.

Sakura: "Hoe? Hoeee.." Tomoyo: "Sakura is he staring at you?"

Mr Terada has written the boy's name on the blackboard.

Terada: "Li Syaoran. He is from Hong Kong. Everyone get along with him, now. And as for your seat..there, the desk behind Kinomoto's is empty." Sakura whimpers. Syaoran walks back to her desk and glares at her.

Tomoyo politely: "Your seat is right here, if you please."

He lifts his chin disdainfully and sits down. He continues to glare at Sakura.

The bell rings. Sakura rubs her forehead. Sakura: "So tiring.."

Someone puts their hand on her shoulder.

Syaoran: "One minute."

She grimaces.

Sakura and Syaoran are standing in a secluded corner of the schoolyard near a fence.

Sakura: "Ummm..what?"

Syaoran is holding a board with Kanji on it.

Syaoran: "Gyokuten yuujkoku shinken shiho. Kinmouku suikado. Daifuu laiden shinchyoku. Gyokuten yuujkoku shinken shiho. Kinmouku suikado. Daifuu laiden shinchyoku. Keima hekileki denkouden. Kyuu kyuu ryoumitsuryo!"

A light bursts out of the board and shoots toward Sakura.

Syaoran: "I knew it! You have the Clow Cards, don't you?!" Sakura: "How.?" Syaoran: "This Rashindan was made to find the Clow Cards. Out with them!" Sakura: "What?"

He holds out his hand.

Syaoran: "The Clow Cards." Sakura: "I can't! I promised Kero..that I'd capture all the cards!" Syaoran: "Kero? Do you mean Keroberos, the guardian beast?" Sakura: "How did you know..?" Syaoran distressed: "If Kerberos is here, why is he letting this kid keep the cards?" Sakura: "Kero doesn't have enough magic. He can't transform. That's why.." Syaoran: "The cards with Kerberos' sun symbols of fire and earth power him. You don't have either of those cards?" Sakura: "No.." Syaoran: "How long have you been searching for them?" Sakura: "Since September.." Syaoran: "You've been looking for them for two months and you still haven't captured all of them?" Sakura: "That's true, but..Hey! How do you know about the Clow Cards?!" Syaoran: "That's none of your business. I'll capture the remaining Clow Cards! Hand them over!"

Sakura puts her hand on her pocket to protect the cards.

Sakura: "No! I can't! This is between me and Kero."
Syaoran: "I see. So they're in that pocket."

He walks toward Sakura. Tomoyo comes around the corner looking for
her.

Tomoyo: Sakura?"

She gasps when she sees Syaoran trying to take the cards out of Sakura's pocket against her will.

Tomoyo: "Sakura!!!!" Syaoran: "Hand them over!"

Touya leaps over the fence.

Touya: "You! What are you doing to my sister?!" Sakura: "Touya!"

Syaoran leaps away from Sakura and goes into a fighting stance. Sakura sinks to the ground. Tomoyo runs to her.

# Flash back #

Sakura is wearing a pink and black outfit with cat ears.

Tomoyo: "Since today we are dealing with thunder, I made it with all rubber- based material so you wouldn't be electrocuted."

Kero indicates the pink material.

Kero: "And this fabric?" Tomoyo: "That is also non-conductive fabric." Kero: "And why the cat?" Tomoyo: "Because it's kawaii."

A bolt of lightning moves across the sky and lands on rooftops.

Kero: "That's Thunder!" Tomoyo: That seems appropriate, doesn't it?"

Sakura: "Fly!"

She and Kero fly after the bolt. Tomoyo films her.

Tomoyo: "You look so heroic!" Kero: "That boy you were talking about earlier..you said he has the Rashindan?" Sakura: "Yeah, a wooden board with a lot of writing on it." Kero: Clow told me that he left the Rashindan with his mother's relatives. That kid might sense Thunder and come here too. Let's make sure we capture it first, all right?" Sakura: "Yeah! I'll do my best!"

They both gasp as the bolt heads straight for them. They narrowly avoid it, and it turns around and tries again. Sakura and Kero land on a rooftop.

Sakura: "What do I need to do to turn it back into a card?" Kero: "First, we have to get it back into its previous form, or.." Sakura: "A previous form?" Kero: "Here it comes!" Sakura: "Jump!"

She jumps from rooftop to rooftop just ahead of the bolt. She finally lands on the school clock tower.

Sakura: "But what is Thunder's pervious from?" Kero: "Thunder is really.." Syaoran: "You're pathetic! You don't even know something as simple as that?"

Sakura and Kero gasp. Syaoran is standing just below them on the tower. He's wearing green robes, just like the ones Sakura saw the boy in her dream wearing.

Sakura: "Li?!"

He draws his sword.

Syaoran: "Thunder shorai kyuu kyuu ryoumitsuryo!

A blast of electricity comes from Syaoran's sword and stops the bolt before it reaches them. It falls onto a rooftop, howling and screeching. Syaoran leaps gracefully down to the rooftop. Sakura gasps.

Sakura: {Just like in my dream} she thought.

Thunder has returned to its previous form: a glowing, bear-like creature.

Sakura: "It's scary-looking!" Syaoran: "You have to return Thunder to its form as a thunder beast before you can capture it. You didn't even know that?" Kero: "I was just about to explain that"

Sakura takes out a card.

Syaoran: "Baka, you can't fight Thunder with Windy" Sakura: "But Windy's restrained cards so I could capture them before" Kero: "Because I was in the Clow book for so long, it's ok to call me silly, but I will not be called a Baka!" Syaoran: "Do you have the Shadow card?" Sakura: "Yeah" Syaoran: "Thunder shorai kyuu kyuu ryoumitsuryo!"

He zaps the beast again. It howls.

Syaoran: "Now!"

Sakura takes out the Shadow card.

Sakura: "Shadow!"

It wraps up the thunder beast.

Sakura: "I command you to return to your true from, Thunder!"

Sakura picks up both cards off the ground.

Syaoran: "So that's the wand of capture.? But you really don't know anything, do you?"

Smiling she turned the corner to head into her street, but stopped abruptly. {Something doesn't feel right} she thought.

Syaoran.

Syaoran and Eriol, who were still arguing, also stopped, and stood silent and still. "What's wrong guys?" asked Melin who had noticed the sudden change in the noise around them. (Meaning it wasn't as noisy as it was when they were arguing)

"I'm sensing a very powerful aurora" said Syaoran. "It won't be long now" "What won't?" asked Tomoyo. "I'll tell you later, but right now we gotta find Sakura...she's in danger"

Sakura.

"I'm sensing something very powerful, and it's not far away" "Sakura!" "Hoe? Oh Kero, what are you doing here?" "Looking for you, when you didn't come back at 12 I came looking for you" "Thanks Kero, I was just on my way home and I felt this strong magic.do you feel it?" "Yeah, it's strong, very strong" "What could it be Kero? I've got all the Clow cards and transformed them, so.?" "There's more magic then just the cards Sakura. It's not just us who posses it" "How many people posses magic?" "I don't know, but a lot I can assure you" "Oh" "Sakura?!" "Hoe? Syaoran!" "What the-?" said Kero "Sakura, are you ok?" asked Syaoran, his voice full of worry. "Yeah I'm fine" "Good-" "GAKI?!?" "Look what the cat dragged in" said Syaoran in a bored tone. "What the hell are you doing back here?" "For your information stuffed animal, I'm here for two reasons-" "Yeah? And what might they be?" "One is to propose to Sakura and two-" "TO WHAT?!?" yelled Kero "To propose to Sakura" said Syaoran in a triumphant voice, seeing how he got Kero all worked up. "I won't let you!" yelled Kero more angrily now. "Your too late stuffed animal" All three of them turned around to see Melin, Eriol and Tomoyo. (They had just got there) "What?" asked Kero. "Syaoran has already proposed to Sakura, and she has accepted his proposal" answered Melin. "Anyway, what was number two?" asked Sakura before Kero could respond. "Number two was to protect you with this new threat that's coming" said Syaoran seriously. "What new threat?" asked Sakura, slightly scared. "I don't know, all I know is that my mother got some warning of this new evil and said I had to come and help" "Ok, so then why is the little girl here?" asked Kero, more calmly now. "Because I wanted to come baka" said Melin. "Is that you Sakura?" came a male voice. "Huh, Gaki?!?" "Touya" said Syaoran under his breath. "What on earth are you-?" but stopped when he saw the serious expression on Syaoran's face. He paused for a minute just staring at Syaoran then said, "All of you get over to Sakura's house now" "What?" asked Sakura with astonishment. "You heard me, now hurry up!"

All of them looked at each other with confused faces except Syaoran who was watching Touya very closely.

"What's Touya up too?" asked Sakura. "I don't know but we better hurry, come on" replied Syaoran and they all headed towards Sakura's house.
