Hey everyone. How are you? I'm ok. I'll try to get this up ASAP but can't promise much. But I'll try.

Also you all know most songs and things like that don't belong to me. The one in here belongs to system of a down.

The wind blew wildly as a green dressed girl floated across the vast ice lands of Antarctica. Her hair blew around but she didn't look cold and she didn't seem bothered by it at all. Behind her floated a statue of ice. A girl on her knees. Sakura.

Her body motionless and frozen but inside the layers of ice was the frightened and extremely cold card mistress.

"Where am I going?" She thought to herself. She couldn't move. So she couldn't call on the cards to thaw her out.

The card turned around as if to hear her and only smiled. Sakura was unable to see the action but she felt the essence of the card and shivered. Not from the cold but from a fear she had never felt before. Not even for the void card.

They kept floating for a while. The cold night of Antarctica swam around them and all that could be heard was the occasional animal that was curious, but that soon disappeared once they saw greed's eyes.

Their journey ended at a large pool of ice-cold water that was covered by large pieces of ice that floated around them.

The greed card placed Sakura down on the ice and proceeded to create a wall out of snow by just waving her hands. The wall went around Sakura and once the task was completed the card called forth the dog from her card and placed the vicious animal with Sakura.

The card began to vanish into the night. No doubt to go after the missing half. The dog waited patiently for it's comrade to return from the task at hand and had a careful eye on the statue.

Sakura was unable to see anything around her and was barely able to move at all. She tried to move her arms around but she didn't get very far with that because the dog heard the noises coming from the statue and started growling and circling her.

Sakura heard the noises and stopped moving. Her breathing became harder and she closed her eyes. Her mind feeling for what was out there. She could hear the growls and movements as someone or something walked around her.

All the effects of the card had vanished and she was starting to remember everything that had happened. How her own jealousy got the better of her and it turned her against the people who cared for her.

"What am I going to do?" She thought. All alone in the middle of nowhere with something guarding her was not the best of situations. Especially when you have no clue of what's out there.

Her mind started to get fogy and she tried desperately to withstand the cold but it was no use. Her body was exhausted and she had no choice but to fall into a deep sleep. Maybe if she slept she'd wake up and realize this was all just a dream.

Maybe, just maybe.

Meanwhile outside the guardian dog paced around the statue making sure it's prisoner was not trying to escape.

His ears became alert when he heard the sound of the green dressed woman returning with the second statue.

It was in the form of a young man. Syaoran. She traveled to china and retrieved his frozen body. It had been a difficult task since all the members of his family with magic had tried to attack her but it was no use. The cards power was stronger than theirs. If Sakura and Syaoran had been in a more stable state of mind then perhaps she would have been sealed but the great sorceress and her soul mate had been the victims to the harsh reality of man's instincts. Greed was something that everyone had to deal with.

Syaoran was almost free when the card had come for him. His family had tried to thaw him out with magic but the card had come for him before they could finish and she froze him again. Now all he could move were his eyes. All he could see was ice. His body was frozen solid. He was so cold that even his training was beginning to feel useless.

'Sakura' He called out in his head but no answer came back. He could feel her aura right next to his but she wouldn't answer.

She was alive he knew that much but other than that he couldn't tell if she was hurt or if she was even conscious. His mind was fading already and he'd loose consciousness very soon. The ice was digging into his flesh making cuts.

'Sakura' He called out again before he too lost all consciousness.

The card watched on knowing that the two card captors where now unconscious. She started to release them from the ice and watched them fall to the floor like puppets with cut strings.

No one was going to seal her. Clow read didn't create her so he had no power over her. She was free and no one would change that. Freedom was the one thing everyone would envy once she finished with them.

*****

There was a lot of noise being made in the house of Eriol as he paced around the room looking for useful books.

"Why are we all sitting here? We should be out their looking for my little sister." Touya exclaimed. Everyone who knew about the cards was there.

"Touya we told you before we can't go look for her because we don't even know if she's even in this dimension." Tomoyo said for the tenth time. She couldn't blame him though. Her best friend was out there. Frozen solid.

"I spoke to Yelen and she said that Syaoran is also gone." Fujitaka said. "She said that a woman with a green dress came for him."

"Yeah she came for Sakura too." Kero said. He tilted his head to the side and looked at Eriol. "Who was she? She's a card but I know Clow Reed didn't create it."

"No he didn't." Eriol said still looking through volumes of Clow Reeds old writings.

"Then who did?" Yue asked. "Why couldn't we sense it?"

"We couldn't sense it because this card seems to be a lot stronger than any we've ever had." Eriol said. Sitting down on his chair, opening a thick book.

"What did you find?" Suppi asked his master.

"These are old diaries. Perhaps we can figure this all out." He said

Nakuru now carried more of the books in and placed them on the table. Everyone grabbed one and started reading. It was an hour before anyone found something. It was Touya who found some sort of information.

"Hey. What's a destroyer?" He asked. The others looked at him. Especially Eriol and Kero.

"Destroyers were three ancient demons. Why?" Eriol asked putting down the diary.

"There's something written about cards in here." He said. Eriol got up and walked across the room to where Touya sat and looked through the pages.

Indeed there was a lot of writing about them. These books Clow had kept hidden from any of his family, even his two guardians. Everything in them was to be read only if necessary.

Eriol looked at a very brief sketch of a female with immense wings. He closed his eyes and remembered the day it was drawn. He'd only seen a destroyer once. It was a full moon and he'd been watching the stars when he'd seen the deadly demon watching him with her silver eyes.

He couldn't remember how long they'd stared at each other. He didn't know how long she'd watched him. He just knew that she'd given him a strange look and held out ten cards that looked similar to his clow cards. After that she'd just disappeared.

"Oh no." He said holding his head. All the memories came flooding back to him and he the thought of what it could mean finally sank in.

"Eriol what's wrong?" Tomoyo asked in a worried tone. Her love seemed very anxious and worried.

"I just remembered something and it's not good." Everyone looked at him waiting till he continued.

"When clow Reed first made the cards he had ten left over. Ten that still held some magic in them. Unfortunately they escaped and mingled with the essence of the dark realm. Clow tried to catch them but they were stronger and had a will of their own. One day Clow felt a new presence and suddenly the cards energy seemed to disappear. They just stopped appearing."

"What was it though?" Kero asked floating with his paws crossed.

"Clow only saw her one. A destroyer. The strongest. Nisha. She found the cards and took them back into the dark realm. I can't tell you what cards they are because not even Clow knew that. All I know if she has them in her possession then we're all in very great danger."

"Wait if you seem to know so much about these 'destroyers' why aren't they written about in any of your other books." Touya said.

"Clow knew because he'd been taught about them. Most sorcerers are taught about the dark realm at a young age and the destroyers are the most dangerous. Now there are two left. Unfortunately for us they're the strongest two. Elsu the master of the dark realm would be the strongest but I'm getting this very bad feeling that something more is going on there." Eriol said holding the book in his hand.

"But Eriol if Clow knew about them why don't I and Yue remember much about them? Why can't we sense them?" Kero asked.

"Because they're hiding their energy very well. Kero you have to remember that these demons are far older than Clow Reed himself. They've had most of eternity to perfect their magic."

"So what can we do?" Fujitaka asked.

"I'll need Kero and Yue to help but I think a tracking spell will at least give us a location. Hopefully the card hasn't hidden their aura. The rest is up to Sakura and Syaoran."

Everyone stayed silent for the first time in that day.

*****

The wind blew in the blizzard that surrounded the two frozen card captors. The card sat watching her two victims. The cold didn't affect her. She watched carefully. There was only one way to escape this spell. She would be ready if they figured it out.

Wish I was too dead to cry

My self-affliction fades Stones to throw at my creator Masochists to which I cater

Syaoran had just woken up from his long state of unconsciousness. His muscles ached and his mind was still fuzzy. What was affecting him more though was the turmoil. Did everyone really hate him or was it him that believed it so.

You don't need to bother; I don't need to be I'll keep slipping farther But once I hold on, I won't let go 'til it bleeds

Sakura was still asleep. Her mind racing as her body tried to rest. There was so much guilt in her. She'd told everyone she hated them. She didn't mean it. Her insecurities had blinded her so much and now she was trapped. Maybe if she'd never existed then no one would have suffered.

Wish I was too dead to care If indeed I cared at all Never had a voice to protest So you fed me shit to digest I wish I had a reason; my flaws are open season For this, I gave up trying One good turn deserves my dying

'Maybe if I was dead no one would care. No one would worry. No one would suffer.' Syaoran thought as he struggled. It seemed that his hope was starting to fade. His whole life seemed to be making others suffer. His family. His friend. Sakura. Oh no. Sakura. If he'd died how would she handle it. If he'd never existed he'd never have met the love of his life. NO he had to live for her sake. For the love they shared.

You don't need to bother; I don't need to be I'll keep slipping farther But once I hold on, I won't let go 'til it bleeds

'If I never existed I wouldn't have met the cards. I never would have met Kero or Yue. Or Syaoran. Kami Syaoran. I have to get through this. I have to see him again. I can't just abandon him. No I won't give up. I never gave up before and I won't start now.' Sakura screamed in her head as she regained consciousness. She immediately felt Syaoran next to her and her confidence stated to build.

Wish I'd died instead of lived A zombie hides my face Shell forgotten with its memories Diaries left with cryptic entries

The card began to panic. None of her other victims had ever figured out how to get out of the ice. They'd died in it consumed by their guilt. None had ever regained their hope.

And you don't need to bother; I don't need to be

I'll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on, I won't let go 'til it bleeds

Sakura started to struggle against her prison, the ice started to crackle under her forced movements. Her senses became clearer and she felt the star key in her hand. The cards she'd forgotten she had them with her.

You don't need to bother; I don't need to be I'll keep slipping farther But once I hold on... I'll never live down my deceit

Syaoran had broken through the ice and saw Sakura doing the same thing. The card tried to freeze him again but she no longer had the element of greed on her side. He transformed his sword and called upon the elements.

"Element. Fire." He called out. His body was weak but he tried anyway. The card dodged the attack by only an inch. Sakura was now out of the ice with the key in her hand. As cold as she was, her eyes held the fire in them.

"Sakura." Syaoran called, holding out his shaking hand. Sakura slowly walked over to her as he continued to throw attacks at the card that was now fearful.

Sakura reached him and began to call out her staff.

"O key which holds the power of my star

Reveal thy true form

I, Sakura, command you under contract

Release!"

"We have to weaken it first." She said looking at Syaoran and the fire element.

"Sakura your too weak to use fiery." He said in a concerned voice.

"If we use them together we can beat her." She protested. She called out fiery and the card's eyes went wide. The only true attack it had involved ice and they where using something that could combat that.

"We're not under your influence anymore. You think we can't realize how to beat you?" Syaoran tormented calling out to the elements again. Fiery attacked at its mistress's command and the card started to run. Unfortunately for her not fast enough.

Fiery and Syaoran's fire element attacked. The card was trapped and it was just enough time for Sakura to seal her. Only Sakura couldn't do it by herself.

"Return to your power confined." She called. The card was too strong for her alone though. It's power kept it safe from her chants.

"Syaoran I need your help to seal it." Sakura called to her boyfriend. Syaoran got behind her and held onto the staff.

"Do you know what card it is?" He whispered weakly.

"Yeah I know." They both lifted the staff and green ribbons appeared on the sides of the stars along with a green emerald. "Greed card I command you to return to your power confined. GREED CARD."

The card tried with all its might. It began to become a card and floated into Sakura's card. Its form was pink and green. Sakura and Syaoran.

"Our first card together." Sakura said before passing out. Her body falling limp in the little wolf's arms

"Sakura." Syaoran said but he too passed out. Falling onto the cold snow with the cherry blossom held tightly in his arms.

Fiery went back into its card form and returned to Sakura's hand. All of a sudden both card captors disappeared leaving nothing but snow and ice behind.

*****

"They've come out of the influence of the card." Bahul said looking into the mirror.

"I know. They figured it out." Nisha said proudly.

"You knew they would didn't you?"

"Of course." She said walking away grabbing the cards. "I think I'll give them some time to bond. Before I send another card. Don't you think my sweet?"

A large cat like creature purred at his master and rubbed against her leg. Nisha picked him up and watched it's spiky tail wag.

"That thing is a pest." Bahul said. He didn't like anything that even resembled a cat. The thing acted like one.

"Your just jealous. But for now go check on the master. He must worry for the card mistress." Nisha said.

"Yes. I will go." He said leaving the room not very enthusiastically.

"Soon precious. Soon. He doesn't understand but when he sees what will happen when my plan is complete. Elsu won't be destroyed but he will no longer be our master."

The 'cat' made a sound that would be the equivalent of a meow and she lifted him into the air.

"Yes. Once this is over Elsu will be gone and our rein will be forever victorious. The card captors won't be able to stop us then because their power will be nothing compared to the power they will give us."

Bahul stood at he door watching his mistress. He didn't know what she was talking about but he smiled at her act of innocence.

'Emotions are weak Bahul. Always remember that. You are their master not the other way around.' His mind reminded.

"We found them." Eriol called out. He had just found the card captors. Amazingly. In Antarctica.

"Can you bring them back?"" Tomoyo asked anxiously.

"Yes." He said. "I'm doing it right now. He began to chant a spell with Kero and Yue's help. Suppi and Nakuru stood behind them lending their energy.

(I can't be bothered making up a spell.)

Slowly the Clow circle surrounded Eriol and his staff began to glow. He began to chant louder and faster. The same line over and over again till his eyes glowed. Everyone stood back and watched as a body formed in the circle.

Auburn hair and a beautiful body. Sakura.

Eriol stopped the spell and looked down at the card mistress. He smiled and let Yue pick her up.

"Sakura." Touya gasped and ran to his sister's side.

"Eriol where's Syaoran?" Yue asked with Sakura still in his arm.

"I sent him back to China. His family will be worried. Sakura will see him soon.

"Xiao Lang." Sakura whispered still unconscious.

"She'll be angry." Kero said. Eriol shook his head.

"No. She won't. I have a strong feeling that she will be fine."

"She can stay at my house till she recovers."

"Daddy?" Sakura mumbled when she opened her eyes and saw her father. Fujitaka ran his hand through his daughter's hair nodding his head smiling.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to tell everyone I hated you. I'm so sorry." She sobbed.

"Shh. It's ok Sakura. We know you didn't mean any of it." He said. With that she went back t sleep.

Kero looked outside sighing in relief. His sense of relief was cut short though. Four sets of eyes watched in the darkness of the night.

"Destroyers." He said fearfully. He looked back to his friends and then back at the window. The eyes were gone again. Just like every other time. "Sakura."

Again I'm not happy with it but I couldn't think of much more. Next few chapters will be better I hope. Sigh. Well review please.
