~*Hello again. Welcome to chapter three. I would like to thank those who
came back to review my story from chapter 1. I got kinda scared with one of
them, but oh well. I didn't get as many reviews as I would have liked, but
it's all good.*~
(Oh yea, I almost forgot the disclaimer: blah blah, CCS is not mine, blah
blah.)
"What is your idea Sakura?" asks Eriol. He still has a little smirk on his face from when Syaoran and Kero went flying out the room because of the Silent Card.
"Well, I believe we all agree that we should try to get an answer from the cards?" they all nod. "Then, I'll ask mirror. She has spoken to me before so maybe she can tell us what is going on." Again, they all nod their head in agreement.
Sakura, with star wand in hand, gets out of bed. She stands in the middle of the room and her magic circle appears at her feet. "Mirror card! Reflect my image and become another me!" Mirror appears in front of Sakura. She travels through her mirror and comes out looking exactly like Sakura.
"Hello Sakura." She says.
"Hi."
"What is it you need of me?"
"Do you remember earlier today? You and the rest of the cards flew around us and we felt some strange aura. Why did you fly around us?"
"We were worried about you."
A shocked expression crosses everyone's face. Kero immediately transforms to his true form. "Why? Who's after Sakura?" asks Syaoran anxiously.
"We are not sure who it is exactly. But we do know that he or she is ancient.and evil. Someone who was around long before our former master's time."
Before anyone can ask any more questions, the cards start flying around everyone's heads as they did earlier that day. "What's going on?" asks Tomoyo.
"It's happening again, that presence is here." answers Mirror.
"Sakura stay back!" yells Syaoran, moving in front of Sakura to protect her. Mirror turns back into a card and joins the other cards around them. Kero and Yue look around, ready for an attack.
"AHHHH!" Sakura and Tomoyo scream as all the windows to the room break. Glass is flying everywhere and big pieces are about to hit them. Kero and Yue go to protect everyone, their wings extended. "Shield!" Sakura yells and a sphere forms around everyone just before the glass hits them, reflecting it back to the ground. "Is everyone all right?"
"Yes, thanks to you Sakura." Says Tomoyo.
"Your reflexes are fast." Compliments Eriol.
"Are you ok Sakura?" asks Syaoran.
"Yea, I'm fine. Thanks." She gives him a smile and he blushes.
Just then, a very strong wind enters the room almost picking all of them up. After a minute or two, the wind slows to a stop and they all look to where the wind came from. A scared and surprised look is on their faces as they look up to see a tall, cloaked person in front of them. The person is floating about two feet into the air, but is still taller than them even without the floating. The four grew over the years. Syaoran is now 6' tall, Eriol is 5'10", and Sakura and Tomoyo are both 5'9". But this person can easily surpass Syaoran in height. The person is wearing a long, black hooded cloak, their face blocked from view. Kero and Yue immediately put themselves between the mystery person and the group.
"Ha ha ha ha! You cannot protect them from me!" says the person. It is a woman's voice.
"Want to bet?!" growls Kero.
"Ha ha ha." She laughs with pure amusement. With a 3wave of her hand, Kero and Yue are thrown to the wall, knocked unconscious.
They all gasp in fear. "What do you want?" yells Syaoran.
"Why, I want you, all of you." Another wave of her hand and Tomoyo shoots up into the air towards the woman.
"NO!" screams Sakura. With very little trouble, Sakura summons the Erase card. "Erase that woman!"
The woman shrieks with shock as Erase starts to erase her legs. She drops Tomoyo, but Eriol catches her. In anger, and terrifying power, she deflects Erase, sending it to the ground hard. "You have more power than I gave you credit for." She says, her composure back together.
"Are you ok Tomoyo?" asks Sakura, rushing to her side. But Tomoyo is not awake. Sakura tries to wake her up but it's no use. "Tomoyo? Tomoyo? What have you done to her!?"
"The same that I'll do to the rest of you." She waves her hand again, catching Sakura off guard, and sends her flying out the window.
"Sakura!" yells Syaoran as he tries to get to her.
"Oh no you don't." says the woman. Syaoran and Eriol get knocked into Tomoyo's dresser, unconscious. The woman advances to them. "There's no one to stop me now."
"Stay away from them!" yells Sakura as she comes flying in. She used the Fly card to give her wings and fly back through the window, putting herself between her friends and the woman.
She tries to send Sakura flying her own way, but Sakura's anger toward the woman kept her feet firmly on the ground. Sakura's power is radiating from her as she prepares to use Firey. "Stop!" the woman says. "If you want your friend to wake up."
Firey, already summoned, stops in mid-attack. "What did you do to Tomoyo?"
"All in good time my dear, but I wish to play with you more. You intrigue me. I want to learn more of your powers before you loose them forever. Ha ha ha."
"What do you mean?"
"Oh you will see. But for now, your friend will remain asleep, and you shall die!"
It is now that Sakura realizes her deceit. She had no intention of telling Sakura how to help Tomoyo. Sakura is bleeding heavily from her fall outside, and the woman knew it. She was just biding her time until Sakura dies of blood loss. At that moment, Sakura collapses, unconscious because of the blood loss. She is completely vulnerable to the mystery enemy.
"Ha ha ha. At last."
~*Hehe. Sorry to leave it in a cliffhanger, but I didn't want to make the chapter too long. What's going to happen? What will become of Sakura? Who is the mystery woman? You'll have to find out in the next chapter. Please read and review.*~
