Nakoruru: Hello everyone! I guess everyone liked the last chapter. Thank you and sorry for the wait, I lost my concentration for this one. And had to have a little help.
Blazer: Last chapter was definitely interesting.
Nakoruru: Yay. Well, I don't have much to say for this chapter. Just that it's nice and even got an appearace that I have to thank Lady Love for helping me think of and the support she's now giving me for this story. You have to be my favorite helper in all of the world next to "the little devil". ^_^
Blazer: Okay, we would like to thank everyone for reviewing and hope that you enjoy the next chapter as much as you liked the last.
Nakoruru: Oh yeah, Bunny, if you need my help for anything towards your story, just email me and I'll get back to you as quickly as possible. Okay, now we get to the story. Everything in "// //" marks is telepathy of sorts.

"Serena?" When no response came, Mina and Amy looked behind them to find that Serena had stopped. Her head was bowed to them. "Hey Serena, are you sleep? Transforming two cards at once must have really tired you out, huh?" Mina walked back to her friend, but discovered that the Sword card was in her hand. "Serena?"
Serena raised her head to the girl. Her eyes were blank as she raised the Sword card up and ran at Mina. The blonde jumped out the way of the attack.
"Serena, what are you doing! Stop playing around!" Mina shouted as Serena went after her again.
"Mina, I think the Sword card possessed her. Now it's lashing out!" Amy yelled, as she dodged out the way as Serena went after her too.
"What?!" Mina said in disbelief. "What do you mean that it possessed her? It shouldn't! She sealed both it and Shield, aren't they suppose to obey her?"
"I thought so, but it seems they aren't," Amy said as she dodge another swipe from Sword.
"How in the world are we suppose to help her without hurting her. Man I wish Kero was here right now!" Mina said. "I'm sure he would know how to stop Sword." Just then, one of the cards that Serena had appeared in its card form before taking shape. The card was known other than Dash. The little elemental squeaked at her, trying to make her stop her actions. The possessed girl looked down at the little elemental for a long minute before she tried to attack it. Dash easily jumped out the way of the attack, way too fast for the other card.
"Dash!" Amy shouted. "Don't! You're going to get hurt!" The little elemental squeaked at Serena again, trying to get her to come around, but it was no such luck. Sword had Serena attack Dash once more, but the little elemental got away safely.
"Dash, return to your card form!" Mina said. "Don't be foolish, I know you want to help Serena, but getting hurt won't help her any!"
"My, my, my, look what we have here, one possessed card captor. How very interesting," the silky voice of Kaiousei brought the attention of two individuals. She was seated on a lamp post, watching the events play out. Tennousei was no where to be found this time. "I can't believe the card captor allowed such a thing to happen. Maybe she isn't as strong as we thought."
"What do you want bimbo!" Mina shouted.
"My, is that any way to speak to someone older than you?" Kaiousei remarked, dropping gracefully to the ground. Her eyes flickered over the two, then the captor herself. "What would Sakura think of her student I wonder?"
"Leave her alone!" Mina said.
"You know, I could destroy you all with a flicker of my hand," Kaiousei remarked with a short glance over them. You may have the protection of one card, but it must have its master's power to strive. And you have so very little magical abilities that would stop me from doing it."
"They may not have the power, but I do," a voice came. Everyone turned around to find a raven haired girl standing behind them. In her hand was a very tall staff. Her eyes focused on Kaiousei, then the possessed captor who stopped her frantic attacks, sensing the strong ability in the new arrival.
"You again," Kaiousei growled.
"Like I wanted to see you again either," the girl said, walking towards the possessed captor and rose her staff. "O power of light, imprison the power within this body, surrender to me your power, by the moon and stars above!" A powerful light erupted from the staff, surrounding Serena. Before Sword had a chance to lash out, Serena was trapped in a magical prison. The card tried to break out of the power that the raven haired girl casted but to no avail.
"That's amazing," Mina awed. She thought Serena was the only one in the world that could use magic, that was still alive. She wondered where this new girl came from, and where she got the staff. Could she also be a card captor? Kaiousei was also very impressed.
"Your power seems to exceed that of the captor," Kaiousei clapped.
"She's the captor?!" the raven haired girl turned her eyes to the blank eyed blonde. Was this a trip that this evil woman had done? Or was it that the card had possessed her because it was afraid?
"The frantic Sword took possession, lashing out at everyone and everything in order to escape the new captor. Isn't that such a same she wasn't strong enough to tame the card?" Kaiousei cackled.
"Shut up! That's not funny!" Amy shouted.
"I agree. You have no idea how much that card must be feeling," the raven haired girl said. Raising her staff once more to the sky, she closed her eyes. "Power of sun, power of light, power of moon, let the force ignite. Hear my call, come to my aid, strike my enemy with your anger!"
"I don't--" Before Kaiousei could raise a shield, an invisible force struck her square in the chest. She was sent sprawled back to the ground.
"Last time I was playing around with you. But this time, I won't hesitate to destroy you," the raven haired girl remarked, walking up to where Kaiousei was trying to catch her breath. She glared up at her opponent. "So...you are...I figured that much."
"You know what?" the girl smirked. "You have no idea about nothing. Now die!" Just as the girl was about to strike another blow, shadow ravens appeared in front of her, blocking Kaiousei. The raven haired girl covered her face, while the birds allowed Kaiousei to escape. Once the woman was gone, the birds disappeared. "Dammit! She got away. There's always next time."
The raven haired girl turned to see what she could do for the new captor, but found that the girl was not where she left her. In fact, her magic had been dissolved and the girl was floating in mid air. The two girls with the captor were staring in pure amazement also. The little elemental floated with the girl, nuzzling her face. But that was not what everyone was gaping at. Holding the young teen was a woman with wings on her back and long flowing brown hair. Her soft green eyes staring down into the soft blue eyes that filled with tears.
"That can't be..." the raven haired girl whispered. Could this lady be...the previous mistress of the cards?
The two figures in the air paid no attention to the figures below as the brown haired figure strokes the young girl's hair. //It's all right Serena, stop crying.//
Serena looked up at the figure that gave her heart calm. She had a feeling she could trust this lady. //But I nearly hurt my friends and Dash.// Serena looked down at the little elemental trying to scrub away her tears. A gentle smile came to her face. //I'm so sorry Dash, I wasn't strong enough.//
//It is not you're fault, Serena. Sword was afraid of your power, that's why it did what it did. It is calm now and understands you want to help it.// The woman replied, wiping away Serena's tears. //You are wrong about yourself. I believe in you, my angel of hope. You will be the one that will do what has not been done.//
//But...// Hesitation filled Serena's mind, but the woman's calm settled her once more. A smile appeared on the woman's face as she opened her hand, flashes of light appearing in her hand. //Do not allow anyone to tell you that you are not the one. You are an angel of light, of hope, and dreams, Serena.//
//I am?// Serena asked.
//Indeed. You will do it. You can, I know you can. I have faith in you.//
//You do?//
//Yes, I have faith in you. I know you can do it. Here.// The woman held out the balls of light to the girl. //You search will be long and almost near impossible, so I am sending these back to you. They tried to go with me, but I brought them back to you. Take good care of these, and remember Serena, you are the angel of hope. Don't ever forget that.// Serena was lowered back to the ground as the figure began to ascend back to heaven. //Please don't forget what I have told you, the world will count on it.//
The figure disappeard from sight, leaving Serena with the small glowing orbs. Who exactly was that? Could that have been Sakura? The previous mistress of the cards? And who was that mysterious girl that had helped them? Serena turned her eyes slightly to the girl. She had a staff too. Could she be a captor?

Nakoruru: Sorry about the short chapter. I have way too many things on my mind.
Blazer: Next chapter will be longer though, right?
Nakoruru: Yah! I just won't be able to update as regularly as possible. So, this is the announcement I have to make for SOTU. I'm getting help for the rest of the chapters on out, and the chapters will be updated once a week. That way it gives me time not to rush things. So that means that the next chapter comes out next week. So, until then. R & R.
