"I can't stand this!" Meilin cried out after a long period of silence.
"The rest of us aren't exactly having the time of our lives." Tori replied. Meilin looked down and stayed quiet. Out of all of them Tori was the only one who hadn't moved or said anything. He just sat.
Inside of his head was another matter. His thoughts would not leave him a moment of peace. His sister was missing, and so was the stupid Chinese gaki. If any of this was his fault... But looking at the boy's cousin and friend Tori knew it was unlikely. Not matter how much he hated the boy he knew he wouldn't put Sakura in danger on purpose, watching them fight had taught him that much. Plus, something was wrong with his mother. Tori had met her once and knew she held a great deal of power. For the first time in his life Tori hoped nothing had happened to the boy, if only for Sakura's sake. It would devastate her to watch her friends get hurt and though he hated to admit it, Tori knew she was close with the Chinese boy.
Madison opened her mouth to say something but a gust blew around the room.
"Would somebody shut the window." Tori snapped. Julian stood up.
"It's already shut." As the others in the room stood the wind grew stronger. "This no ordinary wind."
"This is a magical wind!" Kero stated as the wind grew stronger still. Suddenly the light in the room went out and only a faint glowing in the corner of the room could be seen.
"What's happening?"
"Sakura's summoning the cards!" Kero yelled as the book started to glow brighter. A bright light flashed through the room and the book disappeared in a magical surge. The winds had gotten so strong that everyone in the room had been knocked to the floor.
"Sakura..."

"What's she doing?" Students yelled at each other as the winds in the hall built. With a blinding flash of light a small pink book appeared in the girl's hands. The winds subsided and Hogwarts became silent. The teenager, much to every one's surprise, smiled gently then raised her head to look Voldemort in the eye. Voldemort laughed.
"You think a book can help you? Why don't you use your friends sword, at least that can deflect my spells and of course he won't be needing it any more." A flash of white hot anger shot through Sakura and she had to stop herself from lunging at the evil creature in front of her.
"Well, if you think you can defeat me with a book then I wish you all the luck in the world. Get ready to meet your friend, after you die."
"I'm not going to die, I'm going to live and defeat you!"
"I'd like to see you try!" Voldemort snarled and Sakura snapped.
"Fine!" She threw a card up into the air, like her companion had done earlier, and placed the end of her staff on the front of the card.
"Windy!" Out of the card erupted a woman, all her features cream and with a great sense of magic around her. She flew up to the ceiling then dived down, heading directly for Voldemort. His spells did nothing to the spirit woman and he was swept up and carried to the other end of the hall where he collided with the wall.
"Master!" Several Death eater cried and ran to him while several others ran to confront Sakura. She pulled another card out from within the book.
"Sleep!" A smaller spirit woman came out from this card and out of the tip of her wand came sparkles. Slowly every Death eater fell asleep, Voldemort long gone after being knocked out. The hall was left in silence. The girl pulled another card out.
"Erase!" A clown like figure rose out of the card and spread tendrils out across the room, erasing the teacher's and Harry's chains. Once this was done the spirit returned to the card, which the girl put back into the small book. A moment of silence enveloped the hall and nobody moved.
Then Madam Pomfrey stood and hurried over to the still body of Li. Sakura turned, tears filling her eyes again, when the woman smiled.
"He's still alive!" Relief swept through her.
"He is?" The elderly woman nodded then brought out a short stick of wood. She waved it around the teenage boy and a stretcher appeared underneath him. Meanwhile, the other teachers were busy securing Voldemort and the Death eaters. Harry quickly rejoined his friends, and wondered with all the other students what would happen now.
"Come with me, dear. I think I might need your help." Sakura nodded and followed the woman as she levitated Li out of the large room.
But as they passed, a pair of dark eyes followed them from where they were hidden in the shadows.
Short chapter, I know. But I felt that if I didn't update quickly you would all send me hate mail for killing Li. Well, I didn't! Stay tuned folks!
