"Tomoyo-chan! Over here!!" Sakura waved, trying to get her best friend's attention. Tomoyo ran right into her friend's arms and gave her a hug. Once she approached Syaoran, all he did was say Hi and took out his hand for a good old fashion handshake.
Tomoyo giggled at the sight of this, leaving Syaoran blushing.
"You know Syaoran, We're not strangers. We've been friends since 4th grade, no need to do the well-mannered nonsense. Friends give friends hugs, love, care, and all sorts of good things. So since we're friends, can I give you a hug?" Syaoran was touched by Tomoyo's words that he gave her a smirk, and opened his arms for a friendly hug.
'Friends are what I need now. I need everyone's support. Maybe I do need to soften up a bit' He thought. Sakura was surprised at how he accepted Tomoyo's hug.
"Syaoran, I know how much you like Sakura. So please give her a hug, not because I said so. It's because I know you want too. I don't belong in your arms Syaoran and you know it." She whispered. He was shocked at how she found out, about him liking Sakura. So many questions were popping in his head that he didn't feel Tomoyo slip out of his arms.
Next thing he knew, Sakura was already running into his arms. Syaoran moved back, trying to run away, but Sakura was just too happy that she outran him. Both of them collapsed on the concrete floor, leaving Sakura and Syaoran on top of each other, looking deeply into one another's gaze.
"C-Can y-you get off of me Kinomoto?" he stuttered. Sakura shot right up and apologized several times, her heart was beating so fast she couldn't control it.
'Why is my heart beating so fast whenever I look at him?'
But once Syaoran got up, he took her in his arms, causing to break Sakura's thoughts. Shocked, but content, Sakura wrapped her arms around his waist and thought.
'I'm glad that I have Tomoyo, Syaoran and Eriol to be my friends.' She looked straight at Syaoran, smiling with happiness. Syaoran looked at Sakura and gave her a smirk. He too, whispered in her ear.
"Kinomoto. Can you promise me this one thing?" She nodded in response. He looked at her and whispered gently.
"Destiny Hikari is a dangerous place, I've heard about it and seen it. I don't want you to get hurt, so can I. err. protect you?" Sakura blushed and didn't respond. Syaoran panicked saying,
"Uh. I . was. Err .Eriol is protecting Tomoyo isn't he? (A/N: ^^ I feel like a matchmaker!) And I just thought that." He looked away blushing madly.
"Sure Syaoran, I'm glad that you want to can protect me." She whispered slightly blushing, but eyes filled with joy.
"Kawaii!" Tomoyo whispered while video taping them from a far distant cherry blossom tree. She felt a hand on her left shoulder. She swiftly turned around, causing her to gasp in fear.
"I didn't scare you did I?" Eriol chuckled.
"ERIOL! You Baka! . You scared me half to death!! And why are you here 5 minutes before Kaho is?" Tomoyo whispered, in a shouting kind of manner.
Eriol sweat dropped and chuckled, "Gomen-nasai Tomoyo, but I couldn't help watching what you were doing with couple." He pointed. She turned around and saw that they were so close to each other. Close enough to kiss.
"KONNICHIWA Sakura and Syaoran!!"
Sakura turned around and Syaoran looked above her shoulder, Kaho Mitsuki were waving to them. Once Tomoyo saw this, she gritted her teeth in anger.
'Why that little.'
"Now, Tomoyo. No need to get angry with Kaho Sensei. You'll get many video shots of Sakura and Syaoran later." Eriol smiled.
She looked at Eriol in shock and confusion, "Kaho Sensei? Eriol when did you ever call her Sensei??"
'Oh damn, she's unto me. Quick Eriol, think of a good excuse.'
"Oh! Um. well since everyone called her sensei, I just thought I would too. Anyway, that phase is stuck to my brain, since I've been hanging out with you guys so much."
"Oh, I see." Eriol gave out a sigh of relief and saw Tomoyo running towards Kaho, Sakura and Syaoran.
"Hey. Daidouji! WAIT UP!"
"Konnichiwa minna-san, did you bring your crystals?" The 4 students nodded. "Very well, Now, Eriol. May you open the gate?" Kaho continued.
"What's with the formal gestures?" Tomoyo whispered to Sakura and Syaoran.
"I know, weren't they going out?"
"Beats me"
Eriol took out the little icon out from his pocket and suddenly like a flash of light; the little icon became the real thing. The golden staff had the symbols of the Sun and the moon. Kaho shooed everyone to take a step back, while he uses his powers to open the gate to Destiny Hikari.
He chanted, "I call upon the powers of the day and the night, Sun and darkness, unleash your might. Release! Open the Gate to DESTINY HIKARI!"
Whirlwinds came about. Shielding their eyes from the light, dust, and powerful wind, they saw the opening, which looked like a hole in midair.
'Damn! My Powers are too weak. I need Sakura's help, Syaoran get Sakura here!' Eriol thought.
"Kinomoto! GO help ERIOL!" Syaoran shouted. She gave him a nod and struggle to get next to Eriol saying her own incantation,
"Key of the Star. With powers burning bright. Reveal the staff and shine your light! Help Eriol open the gate to Destiny Hikari! Release!" Sakura tapped the opening and within seconds, everyone noticed that the opening was getting bigger and bigger.
"JUMP IN!" Eriol shouted.
Tomoyo was the first one to jump in, then Syaoran. Eriol looked over his left shoulder and shouted
"SAKURA! GET IN THERE!"
"ARE YOU SURE ERIOL?!?!"
He gave her a satisfied smile and nodded. She ran and looked back,
"C'MON ERIOL! WE NEED YOU!" Sakura shouted, extending her hand,
"ONLY THREE PEOPLE CAN GET TO AN OPENING AT ONCE! I'LL GO FIND A DIFFERENT ENTRANCE! "
"NO, ERIOL-KUN!" Kaho shouted. The shocked navy blue haired boy stared at Kaho as If he did something wrong.
" ERIOL-KUN! YOU HAVE THE CRYSTAL! USE THAT TO OPEN THE PORTAL A LITTLE BIT LONGER!" She continued. 'Oh, right.'
"Guardians of the Sun and the Moon, with this crystal, shine your power forth the portal, for I am the Master of Darkness. I command you to open the gates of Destiny Hikari, for one more person!"
Suddenly, like the tidal waves of an ocean, Eriol saw the opening get wider, and jumped in. He was gone. All of them were gone. The portal closed and Kaho was standing there, with tears streaming down her face.
'Aishiteru Eriol-kun.'
' Take good care of her'
******* Destiny Hikari*******
"Lilly! Have you gotten the preparations yet?"
"Iie" A Girl dressed in a yellow and green kimono was picking berries off a bush. She was thought to be at the age of 14. She had long brown hair and glittering brown eyes.
"Ok, I'm done, now, have to give this to mama."
Lilly was distracted by a loud noise, it sounded like 4 kids were near by. She stepped little steps, and got a tree branch clutching it tightly over her shoulder.
"Huh? Who's there? You better come out or else I'll beat you up with a bamboo stick!" As she stepped closer, she heard whispers of 2 females and a male.
"Ow, that hurt. Syaoran get off of me!"
"Eriol, I'm going to kill you for this."
"Shut up you two! Someone's coming."
"HIYAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Next thing they knew, a pretty girl had gotten Syaoran out cold with a tree branch. She looked around and saw 4 kids in weird clothing, lying on the ground, tangled in vines.
"Oh, Gomen-nasai. I didn't mean to hurt your friend here." Lilly hurriedly untangled them and lifted them up by giving them a hand.
"Hoe? Where are we?" Sakura asked, looking around at new environment.
"You're not from here are you? This is Destiny Hikari. Well, the east side of it. What are you doing here?"
"We're on a little mission." Tomoyo gladly said. "Tomoyo!" Eriol whispered.
"M-mission? What's that?" She tilted her head in confusion.
"Uh- we'll tell you later. Can you please help our friend here?" Sakura asked.
"Oh right. Gomen-nasai about that." Lilly dragged him all the way across the field and when they reached their destination, the house looked like those houses in the olden days of Japan.
**** Lilly's room*****
"My name is Lilly, I'm 14 years old. I live in Shishiro, with my mother and two brothers. What about you?"
"Konnichiwa Lilly. My name is Sakura Kinomoto. We're all 14 years old. This is my best friend Tomoyo Daidouji, Eriol Hiirigazawa, and the guy that you knocked out cold is Syaoran Li."
"Sa-ku-ra, To-mo-yo, E-ri-ol, Sy-ao-ran. Interesting names, where are you from? Are you travelers?"
Before Eriol could reply, a little groan was coming from Syaoran. "Nani? Where am I?"
"Why, you're in my house." Lilly answered with a bright smile.
"AHHH! YOU'RE THE CRAZY GIRL THAT WHACKED ME WITH THAT PIECE OF ---- Wait, are we in Destiny Hikari?"
"Hai. Demo, But your on the east side of Destiny Hikari. This is Shishiro."
"Huh?"
"Shishiro. You never heard of Shishiro before?"
"No, But I've heard about Destiny Hikari." Everyone sweat dropped (excluding Syaoran, who was giving glares to his friends).
"Where are you from then?" Eying all 4 teenagers with curiosity.
"Earth" All four replied.
"Ea-rth.." She jumped at the word Earth in shock and disbelief. "Wait a minute! EARTH? YOUR FROM EARTH!??"
She hugged all three people so tightly that they couldn't breathe.
"Let go of us Lilly!" Eriol choked gasping for air.
"Ah! Gomen-nasai! But the legend has come true! You're the Guardians that they legend seeks."
"H.o.e" Sakura said chokingly.
"Gomen. I'm just so happy. There is a legend that has been passed down to each country and it starts with a little something like this. Far far away, in the temple of Yushimara, were 5 guardians sworn to protect the people within Destiny Hikari. The Wind guardian was from the East, the Water guardian was from the west, the Sky guardian was from the north and the Earth guardian was from the south. But the fifth guardian was from the pits of where the Dark lord was born, he was known as the Guardian of Fire. Before the guardians passed away, they wrote a letter to the Kings and Queens of each part of this world to choose 5 people from earth.."
"But now, since all the guardians are gathered here today, the people of Destiny Hikari don't have to worry about the danger that caused us many deaths."
"Whoa, whoa, Slow down Lilly, you said 5 guardians right? But there are four people here. Where's the fifth one?" Syaoran interrupted.
"He's been here ever since."
"Nani? Lilly what do you mean 'He's been here ever since'?" Eriol questioned.
Lilly ignored the question and sensed a keen aura; she stared into look deeply into Eriol's sapphire eyes. She then saw a spark of Clow's face flickering in the middle of his eye.
'Clow..' She thought.
"Clow Reed? Is that really you?" Lilly questioned. She moved closer and closer. She touched his pale cheek and asked in a whisper "Eriol are you the reincarnated of Clow Reed?" He smiled gently at her.
"CLOW REED! YOUR BACK!" She hugged him once again, causing him to have the same effect as before.
"AH! Gomen!"
"Call me Eriol, Lilly. Now what did you mean 'He's been here ever since'?" Eriol repeated.
"Clow- I mean Eriol, It's Tashi, but he too, passed away, now he's reincarnated and more powerful then ever. He's name is Tashiaki Moto, but he calls himself Tashi."
Eriol's eyes were in shock. "You mean to tell me that Tashi is the fifth guardian?"
Lilly nodded and said " But there are more than just Tashi Eriol, Tashi is being used for a different purpose. He's been controlled by the Dark Lord, and the Dark lord is wanting someone from earth."
"Who is it?" they asked in unison.
"The Dark Lord wants The Guardian of the wind." Lilly looked awfully sad, but continued, "The Guardian of the Wind is called Hikari Yagami. Which in your language ----"
"Means Angel Of Light." Eriol finished her sentence.
Tomoyo covered her hands over her mouth and gasped.
To be continued.. DID YOU like it? I hope you did. REVIEW!!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!! Ah! My hands are getting tired.. Sorry if you were into it. Do you know how long this chapter took me?!? . I'll allow flames. But please don't be too harsh on me. ^^;;
