Umm yeah so here's the next chapter and I hope you enjoy it!!! :) I love you all and thanks for reading and reviewing!!

" Well, well…I had not planned on the third guardian returning…"

" Well what do we do now?"

" As you know Ruby, there is only one thing we can do," said Eli as he stood up from his chair and walked over towards the window.

" I think it would be unwise to summon him here until we are sure that she will stay," said the small black cat lying on the couch.

" Hmm it seems that she has already chosen a master Spinner, so she will be around when the time comes. And when that time arrives, we will need someone…like him."

-----------------------------------------------

" Julian, wake up. Come on Julian wake up! I have to talk to you," said Tory as he tried to shake his best friend awake.

" Uhh Tory is that you?" whispered Julian as he slowly lifted his head from his desk.

Tory knelt down and looked Julian in the eyes. " Look I know why you're so tired all the time. It's because-"

" TORY!" cried a young brown haired girl as she jumped up, wrapped her arms around Tory's neck and squeezed him tightly.

" Ruby, get off," said Tory as he tried to pry the overly exuberant girl off of him.

" Morning Julian, good morning…Tory?" asked Ayama as she tried to find Tory under the mess of brown hair.

" Yeah morning," said Tory as he sat down in his desk finally free of Ruby.

Ruby slammed her hands down onto Ayama's desk and looked her straight in the eyes. " Stay away from my Tory, got it?"

" Eh?" said Ayama as she watched the girl walk over to her desk and sit down. " What's with her? All I said was good morning? I didn't mean to piss off your girlfriend Tory."

" She's not my girlfriend," snapped Tory.

" Alright class, listen up. We have yet another new student. Please welcome uh…I'm sorry I don't seem to have your name here."

A tall young man with shoulder length blonde hair stood at the front of the classroom. " Fai. Fai D. Flowright."

" Ah yes, class please welcome Mr. Flowright to our homeroom."

The young man walked towards the back of the classroom and headed towards the free desk next to Ayama. As he walked past the white haired girl she felt a chill run through her body. Her eyes widened as she snapped her head around to look at him.

" I'm sorry, is someone already using this desk?" asked Fai as he looked down at Ayama. His voice was rather soft and gentle, almost hypnotic.

" Uh n-no, it's…it's um…n-no one's using it," stuttered Ayama as she watched him sit down and search through his bag for his notebook. Ayama turned her eyes to her own notebook as her mind began to race. Something was different about this new student of that she was sure, but what it was she couldn't exactly figure out.

---------------------------------------------------------

Ayama was seated underneath a tall oak tree as she ate her lunch. She stared up into the cloudy sky as she continued to try and figure out just who this new student really was.

" I know who you really are," said a voice from the other side of the tree.

" Is that so…Tory," replied Ayama, her gaze still fixated on the cloudy sky above.

" How come Julian's always tired and you aren't. You're just the same as him aren't you?" asked Tory as he sat down next to Ayama.

" So you know do you? I had a feeling you might, but I wasn't entirely sure, otherwise I would have spoken to you about it sooner. As you know, Julian has another form, as do I."

" Are you protecting my sister too?"

" Not exactly. I protect the one that protects your sister."

" You protect Julian?"

" No."

" You mean to tell me that you protect that little twerp?"

" That little twerp happens to be my brother, and yes, he is the one I protect. In both this, and my other form."

" So why is he always tired if you aren't?"

" Julian's true from draws his powers from your sister. I, however, draw my powers from the stars. Since there are a limitless number of stars, my powers are limitless. Julian's are not."

" Is that why he's-"

" Disappearing? Yes, that is why. And I know that you want to tell him about what's going on, but now is not the time Tory. Hey umm Tory…would you maybe like to-"

" Come on Tory I want to show you something!" said Ruby as she ran up to Tory and grabbed his hand dragging him off towards the schoolyard.

" Would you like to see a movie with me sometime…" muttered Ayama as she watched Tory being dragged away.

" Can I sit here?"

Ayama looked up at the young man now standing directly beside her.

" Umm…yes you may. It's Fai, right?"

" Yes, Fai D. Flowright," said the blonde haired man as he sat down and held out his hand.

Ayama reached out and shook his hand. As she did, she looked into his eyes and felt the same chill run through her body that she had earlier.

" W-what does the 'D' stand for?" asked Ayama as she tried to settle her nerves.

" You know I'm not exactly sure really," replied Fai with a laugh.

" So uh, where are you from?"

" Very far away. So you are from Hong Kong yes?" asked Fai in an attempt to change the conversation towards Ayama.

" How did you know that?"

" Ruby told me."

" You know Ruby?"

" Not really, I spoke to her after homeroom and she mentioned that you had also just transferred here."

" Oh, well yes I did, just a couple of days ago."

" Hmm, well us new people should stick together," said Fai as he got to his feet. " You never know when something unexpected might occur."

" Unexpected?"

Fai turned back and smiled at Ayama. " People like to pick on the new students right?" And with that he walked back towards the school.

-------------------------------------------------------

" Aya! I'm home!" called Li as he closed the door behind him and slipped off his shoes. " Aya? Are you here?"

Li walked into the living room to find his sister staring out the window. " Do you sense it Li? It's faint…but I think Sakura may need us. Hey! Where are you going? Wait for me!"

Li ran as fast he could towards Sakura's house with Ayama following as best as she could behind him. They had almost come to her street when they found her standing on the corner with Yue and Keroberos. Within seconds Ayama had transformed into Akira and joined the group.

Akira leaned up against Yue and hugged his arm tightly. " It's getting closer, I can feel it."

" You're right Akira, it's coming towards us," replied Yue as he tried to wriggle his arm out of her grasp.

" And it's coming fast," added Kero.

" Umm…guys is it just me or did it get really cold all of a sudden?" asked Sakura as she clutched her staff close to her chest and shivered.

" Here," said Li as he handed Sakura his jacket.

" Oh thank-"

" Ow!" cried Akira as a large fluffy white snowball hit her in the side of the head and fell to the ground.

" A snowball? But it's too early for snow," said Li as he dodged another flying snowball. Soon the group was dodging snowballs left and right. Akira released her staff from her ring and within seconds the group was surrounded in a large silver shield..

" Well, someone better come up with a plan fast otherwise we'll be up to our necks in snow!" said Akira as she concentrated on keeping her shield active.

" Sakura, if it were to get really hot, all this snow would melt right?" said Li.

" Okay, but where are we going to find a giant heater? Oh I get it!" cried Sakura. " I call upon the power of my star, ancient forces near and far, Firey, discard your former might and draw your power from my light. Firey! Use your heat to melt this snow!"

The Firey card flew out of the shield and began to melt the snow around the group. Akira released the shield as the snow melted around them.

" Is that it?" whispered Akira as she playfully hid behind Yue holding him tightly around the waste. " I don't want to get hit again."

" I'm pretty sure you'll be safe," snapped Yue as he slipped out of her hold.

" Ah!" cried Akira as she quickly turned around and looked down the empty street.

" What is it?" asked Sakura.

" I know this feeling…I sensed it at school today. That…the new student. He's here, he's close," said Akira as she looked around.

"What the heck is she talking about?" asked Kero as he transformed back.

" I knew there was more to you then you let on Fai. But what do you have to do with all this…" whispered Akira as she continued to stare down the empty street looking for an answer.

-------------------------------------------------

" I knew he shouldn't have come with us," sighed Ruby Moon as she gazed over at the tall blonde haired man on her left.

" Sakura has almost changed all of the cards now, it is imperative he be here so that he knows what he will be up against. So do you think she will present a challenge for you Fai?" asked Eli as he glanced at the young man standing behind him.

" Perhaps," said Fai as he glanced over at the staff in his right hand. It was long and silver with a giant blue diamond adorning the end of it. " But I've always loved a good challenge."
