Disclamier: I don't own CCS. But I would be SO happy if I had Eriol. (~^_^~)

Chapter 5: The meeting.

**At Syaoran's House***

~ Ding Dong~

"Syaoran! Look in the kitchen! Well how many I-- ~Gasp~" Yelan's eyes widened to see the reincarnated Clow Reed was on her doorstep.

"Konnichiwa, Yelan Li. It's Eriol Hiiragizawa. May I please come in? Your son invited me over, for a little meeting."

Without hesitation, she led him to the living room, where he found Sakura, Syaoran and Tomoyo sitting on the couches, waiting for him to begin his meeting.

"I guess that you've told everyone about the meeting that we're supposed to have huh?" Everyone nodded.

Suddenly, like a beam of light. There were 4 figures behind Eriol, one shaped as a tiger, another an angel, one as a butterfly and the last one as a butterfly/panther. Kero, Yue, Ruby and Suppi had come to join us.

"Yes, Hiiragizawa-kun. Including us." Kero and Yue flew aside to their new master, Sakura. Although Ruby and Suppi just stayed where they are.

"We are ready to begin Master Eriol. " Ruby announced. He closed his eyes and hesitated. After Eriol opened his eyes, he glanced at Syaoran and gave him a smile. Syaoran nodded.

"Very well then, we will begin."

'Oh! I hope that this is a kawaii story!'

'I hope that it's not a story with ghosts in it.'

'Tomoyo and Sakura won't believe their ears.'

Eriol sweatdropped at this, once he read everyone's mind. 'Geez, they are really interested.'

"It started at least a thousand years ago. Everything was going perfectly fine. The villagers loved Clow and would always give him happiness and respect. Once he was learning magic, he knew that he would not last as long because he had an illness, a very powerful illness that has spread throughout half of his body, during that course. So he had an apprentice, named Tashi Moto. He was very happy that I was his master, but weeks later he was gone missing. We never knew what had happened to him except on the last week. He came to my house on the last week of my deathbed. We had a little talk in the garden, but I assumed that he didn't listen to me. He did the exact opposite. He took the 2nd pair of Clow Cards and took Ruby and Suppi prisoner. "

"I had thought that no harm would come since Tashi didn't know how to change the Clow Cards into the Dark Cards. But it was my mistake. he had figured out a way to change them. Ever since that day, he had been giving his soul away to the Dark Lord; in earth he is called. the Demon or Devil of Hell." Eriol stopped. This was the point that he shouldn't keep going on. His heart couldn't bare that fact, and his mind couldn't control what he was about to say.

Ruby noticed this and started continuing.

"Since Suppi and I were held prisoner. we used our magic to escape his lair, but Tashi's magic was too powerful to escape freely. He had overwhelmed us greatly. But luckily, he had abandoned us and we reversed his spell. "She said sadly. Heads lowered and eyes filled with sadness were filling the room.

'Master, looks hurt. Tashi did this to him. He was the one that ruined Master's love life.' Ruby thought. 'Master is getting weak. His powers. his powers are.. Fading.' Her eyes shot up with shock. ' That must means. I have to contact Kaho.'

Ruby walked up to Eriol and whispered in his ear " Master, May I go use the phone?" He looked at her and smiled ever so lovingly. Eriol was in a deep thought again. ' My powers are getting weak. The time has come to set them into Destiny Hikari, before it's too late.'

"We can't GIVE UP! The people in Destiny Hikari need our help!!" Sakura shouted breaking Eriol's thoughts. She glanced at the 3 people and 4 guardians. They looked at her as if she was crazy. Eriol however calmed.

"She's right. The people in Destiny Hikari need your help. That's why they have entered all your dreams. Saying the same exact thing. The 'seeker' had called for The Faithful cherry blossom, the brave Warrior of the Wolves, and The Angel of Light. " Eriol grinned. All three of them were in shock. He knew those names were familiar to their ears.

"But what does that mean? Who are they? Were we the people who are supposed to protect Destiny Hikari?" All these questions were asked, at once. He held up his hand and said,

"Silence, There is a certain legend in this world. But I am not the correct person who you should be asking. It's not my time to tell you. "

"Hiirigazawa-kun is right children. You must have the patience." Yelan spoke. Gasps were heard about the house. Standing ever so still, beside Yelan were Kaho Mitsuki and Ruby.

Syaoran stood up giving Kaho a glare; She looked at him and smiled. He calmed but he still held his ground. "What is SHE doing here Eriol? What does she have to do with this?" he coldly replied.

"Relax Syaoran. She, as a matter a fact has a part in this. She is the Messenger of the Sun, and the protector Of Destiny Hikari's most powerful/precious item, The Destiny Crystals." Eriol replied.

"Tomorrow, after school, you are going to Destiny Hikari." Kaho announced.

"But why and how Mitsuki-sensei?!" Tomoyo asked.

" You are who the people who have been chosen by the Kings and Queen of Destiny Hikari. You are their protectors and you will go there with these. " Kaho took out 4 crystals, one pink, one green, one lavender and one navy blue.

Everybody's eyes sparkled and they all stared in awe. Except for Eriol. He was just smiling at Kaho, in which she winced at the look of him. ' He breaks up with me and yet he smiles to me like he still loves me. Eriol. no Hiirigazawa-kun, I'll never loose you. Even if you do love someone else.' She thought looking at Tomoyo, who was videotaping Sakura and Syaoran! (A/n: SHE KNOWS! KAHO KNOWS!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Who in the world would do, ano. ah! It was I. Never mind ^^;;)

"The Pink is for you Sakura. The green is obviously yours Syaoran." Kaho looked at him and smiled gently.

"Sure, Arigato Mitsuki-sensei." He replied still giving her the glare.

"The lavender is for you Tomoyo and the last one.." Kaho walked up to Eriol and handed him his crystal. He looked at her in an confused expression and questioned,

"What is this for Kaho?"

"For you of course. This one is very special, a genuine crystal that hasn't been found for years, or decades. Someone must have lost it on his way home." She mysteriously said. He looked into her eyes with shock, but seconds later his deep blue eyes softened.

"Arigatou Kaho." He took the crystal from her and smiled at it.

'Welcome back, my friend. It's been quite a while.' Eriol thought.

"Now, what the crystal does is that when your magic increases and has gotten stronger, it will take a form. Along with whatever weapon you have. Remember 3:00 pm, at the Penguin Park. Be sure to bring your crystal's there." Kaho proclaimed.

"Hai." The students exclaimed.

"We better get going everyone." Eriol announced. The two girls nodded and waved bye toYelan, Syaoran and Kaho.

By the time they went their separate ways, Eriol stopped walking and took out the crystal from his pocket.

' The time has come, Tashi Moto. This is our battle. I'll fight you till the end. But I won't give you my Angel.' He thought looking at the sky.

He then walked and headed straight for home. Far off in the distance, there was a shadow of a figure on the corner. A hoarse whisper was only to be heard.

'Yes, Eriol I agree. You will die after I defeat you. You're powers are draining quickly my friend. I WILL make sure you give me Tomoyo, Eriol. And she'll fall for me. Not you. I don't want to loose her like last time.'
