Episode Fourteen: Trapped & Useless

Hehe... did you notice that I changed the censor to PG. The story isn't really family friendly anymore... getting kinda voilent and scary soon... But that means the story's getting even more interesting too!

"Alright, I understand now," Demius announced. "I understand your reasoning behind the wicked storm you all created but I need someone to capture the cherry blossom."

"Ahem... cherry blossom sir? Who do you mean?" One of the council memebers asked.

"Arg! I mean the stupid little girl Sakura! Don't you know that in japanese her name means cherry blossom??" Demius asked, his eyes flashing. The council memeber cleared his throat and shook his head.

"Why you little..." Demius started but he was intrupted when a council memeber stood up and slammed his fists down on the table.

"Let me go and capture her," the man suggested. Demius looked at him angerly.

"Never! I need you here to plan out the storm, Thoreau! You are my advisor! I think... Kikyo will go and get the girl," Demius explained. At the far end of the table a woman sat comfortably in her chair but at the sound of her name she jumped up.

"Yes, I'll go but Thoreau give me your staff, I'll need it to control the storm in order to capture the girl, Saku...?" Kikyo sighed. "I'm sorry, what is this fool's name?"

Demius growled and slowly replied, "Sa-ku-ra."

"Don't underestimate her. My brother chose her to be the Clow master because she has the courage and the power. She even took my brother's cards and made them her own," Demius spat. Kikyo rolled her eyes.

"She's still a little girl... trust me, I think I can handle it," Kikyo assured him.

Sakura eyes widened as she watched three tornados made their way around Reedington and fast towards the hospital. The impact of the tornados was incrediable because even though they were miles away the ground beneath Sakura shook. It was also the wild rain that shocked Sakura. The street was in pure chaos as the water piled high and people were standing on top of their cars to aviod drowning.

All those people are going to die... A voice in Sakura's head whispered.

What is this voice? Sakura thought.

They're all going to die... it said again.

"No!" Sakura cried out. She pulled her key off her neck and summounded the staff. Li was behind her and he was gripping his sword tightly.

"What are you planning to do?" He asked, although it wasn't the best time to ask questions. Sakura ran out of the rooming after saying honestly to Li, "I don't know." He followed after her and she headed towards the elevator. She pressed the buttons hoping it would work.

"Damn it!" She said, through clenched teeth when the buttons didn't light up.

I've got a better idea, Sakura thought. She dashed into an empty hospital room and opened the window. She summounded her staff and pulled out a useful card.

"Fly!" Wings grew out of Sakura's back and fluttered before she flew up in the air and out of the window.

"Please be careful Sakura..." Li whispered.

Sakura flew up into the dark clouds so everybody down below wouldn't see her flying and she couldn't make them sleep because they'd drown. As she passed through the clouds, above the sky was as dark as ever and she was feeling hopeless.

If I don't do something now everybody is going to die... just like the voice told me.

Suddenly she spotted a figure with a staff but she wasn't very frightened because it wasn't the same as the one from her dream.

Perhaps this person is behind the storm, I must make them stop at once! Sakura thought quickly. She flew at lightening speed towards the figure and stopped a few feet away from it.

"So your the little girl..." the figure said. Sakura clenched her teeth.

"I'm NOT a little girl!" She shouted.

"We'll see..." the figure replied. Kikyo used the staff to clear the clouds that stood in her path and when they did she befaced a girl with wings like an angel but her face was twisted in anger.

She doesn't scare me, Kikyo thought. Kikyo raised the staff in the air the same way Sakura saw in her dream. Kikyo then pointed the staff in Sakura's driction and jewel at the top of the staff started glowing. Then Sakura saw one of the three tornados making it's way towards her.

(Imagine how cool that'd look when Kikyo is floating in the air with the tornado behind her making it's way to Sakura.)

Sakura pulled out a Star card and flung it in the air and then raised her staff.

Please work...

"TIME!" She called out. But everything didn't turn yellow the way it always does when Time is used. More importantly time didn't stop the way it should when the card is used.

Watching Sakura look around helplessly made Kikyo giggle.

"Stupid girl, do you really think that you could defeat me?" Kikyo yelled. The jewel on the staff brightened and the tornado approached Sakura so fast that she couldn't escape. It caught her and kept her spinning so fast she knew she wasn't going to live. The pain was unbearable as inside the tornado Sakura was smashing against everything the tornado picked up like cars and houses.

Help me... please some one help me...
