I had to start this chapter all over again! My disk suddenly became unformated and then didn't want to become reformated! Well, thanks to all who reviewed The Al Bhed known as Amaria, Tala Mine-Tala Hot, and Starry Sun.
Chapter 10- Cherry Blossom Festival
"I can't wait for tomorrow!" May said, "I heard the Cherry Blossom Festival is wonderful! Full of yummy sweets and fun games!"
"Sounds like fun." Sam said, "And since tomorrow is Friday we woun't have to worry about school."
"And all the fireflys aroung this time of year will make everythind so beautiful!" May said, deamily
"Dreaming of you boyfriend?" Sam
asked, causing May to blush.
"No! He is not my boyfriend!" May
said
"Who's not your boyfriend?"
"VG! Um, no one." May said, "She's just picking on me."
"Okay... Well, see ya." VG turned a corner.
"You knew he was their!" May said
"If you mean I sensed his magic, then yes." Sam said, "And if you mean I tried to get you to say you liked him, then yes." May just glared.
"..." May couldn't think of anything to say. She was angry.
"Sam! I sense a card!" Kero said, poppong out of Sam's bag, "Its on the festival ground."
"Right!" Sam said, as she ran to the festival grounds. When she got there it wal all set up. Everything was set up around Cherry Trees, who's leaves were a bright pink now. Fireflys were sorrounding on of the larger trees.
"Why are the fireflys out, its not dark yet." May asked, when all the fireflys flew to one spot and formed a girl.
"Thats the Glow Card!" Kero said, "She's harmless, this should be an easy capture." When suddenly she flung a glowing ball at them. They all jumped out of the way, as the ball hit the ground where they were standing. It was glowing bright pink.
"I thought you said she was harmless!" Sam said
"She is!" Kero said, "Of she was
when she was a Clow Card. She must have become more powerful when she
became a Star Card."
"Can they do that?"
"If Sakura has grown more powerful than Clow Reed, then yes." Kero said
"She has long been more powerful thatn Clow Reed." Li said, as he and VG came up, "Since she transformed the Light and the Dark cards. And now that the cards are free, we need to seal them quickly, before they take all of her power."
"Then lets hurry." Sam said, and pulled out her Spirit Wand. The Glow threw another glowing ball at her, "Dash! Release and Dispell!" She used Dash's speed to get out of the way, all the while Glow kept throwing those glowing balls. She decided to take a slower target, and aimed for the only one sitting. May. She had her foot tangled in a rope the set up crew left behind. She threw the glowing ball and it was about to hit May. She closed her eyes, and waited for the impact. She opened her eyes when it didn't come. She looked and saw VG standing their his sword holding back the glowing ball. He hit back at Clow and it hit her, and she went down.
"Star Card! Return to your power
confined! Seal! Glow!" VG chanted, and pointed his sword at the
Glow. A blank card appeared at the tip of it, and sucked in the Glow.
He grabbed it and put it in his pocket. "You oaky?" He asked,
turning to May. She blushed fiuriously, and looked away.
"Yes."
She squeeked. He wouldn't have heard her if he wasn'r a Neko-Jin.
"Good." He said, and started walking away. He didn't even wait for Li, who left a few seconds after VG.
"I think VG might be mad at Li." Kero said
"Heck, I would be to if he placed an imobilizing spell on me and left me their all night with a full bladder." May said
"Why would Li do that?" Keo said
"I don't know, but when we went over there to get him to help us with his homework he was frozen. He could still talk, but he couldn't move anything else." Sam said
"Hahahahaha! I wish I could have seen that!" Kero said, holding his sides.
"Imagine how you would feel if that happened to you." May said, and Kero stopped laughing.
"The only reason it would happen to me is if I attacked someone in my true form." Kero said, "So maybe VG lost control of his true form."
"His true form?"
"Yeah, maybe the way you've seen him isn't his true form." Kero said
"And what would that look like?"
"I don't know." Kero said, "Maybe some type of big cat. Or a humanoid big cat! That would be cool!" Sam and May blinked and sweatdropped (o.OU)
"I thought you didn't like VG. Or Li for that matter." Sam said
"I don't, but us big cats have to stick together." Kero said
"But you're a teddy bear." May said.
"I am NOT a teddy bear!" Kero said
"You're not a big cat!" May said, "You're a little teddy bear!"
"Why you!" Kero said, puffing
himself up, trying to make hiself look bigger.
"Is that supposed
to scare me?" May asked
"Stop you two." Sam said, "Lets go."
"Wait!" Kero shouted, "I sense another card! This way!" Kero flew in the direction of the school. They girls followed him. When they got there they saw a girl on the roof holding a bow. "Its the Arrow card!" Kero said, "Watch out for this one!" Then the Arrow raised her bow. She let off a flurry of arrows, which our heroes watched head straight for them. At the last second they all managed to jump out of the way. They landed in a heap and watched as the Arrow readied her bow. She let of another flurry of arrows, which this time could not be dodged. Our heroes watched helplessly as the arrows made their way to them. They would hit in...

Tink Tink Tink Tink Tink Tink. They heard the arrows hit something. They opened their eyes and saw VG blocking the arrows with his sword. When they stopped VG called upon the Shadow Card.
"Shadow! Release and Dispell! Catch the Arrow!" He said, and hit the Shadow with his sword. Shadow came out and sped to the wayward card, who was shoting her arrows at it. But Shadow was to fast, and caught the Arrow. "Star Card! Return to your power confined! Seal! Arrow!" He struck out his sword, and a blank card appeared and sucked in the Arrow. VG grabbed it and the Shadow Card. "Wow, two cards in one night. Hey, why didn't the Shadow transform?" he said. When his sword split in have. The top half of the blade clanked to the floor, while he held the bottom half in his hand.
Everyone: O.O
"My, my sword." VG said, and piched the broken metal piece. Once he had it he lept away, and dissapeared into the evening sky.
"Well, we know he can't tranform the cards." Kero said, "And now he can't seal them either. We have this in the bag."
"Did you see the look on his face?" May asked
"He looked dissapointed in himself." Sam said, "And when his sword broke he looked really sad."
"Are you listening to me?" Kero
asked
"I feel kinda bad for him." May said
"Me too." Sam said
"Hey, your hair is on fire."
"He looked more heartbroken than anything." May said, "I think he really liked sealing the cards."
"And now he can't."
"Nothing we can do." Kero said, "So lets go drown our sorrows in a large bowl of pudding!"
Elsewhere
"Li, my sword broke." VG said, "Can it be fixed?"
"Hm." Li said, and grabbed the pieces of the sword. "Yeah, we can fix it. But we will need something to mend it. And I know excatly what we can use." VG didn't like the look Li gave him.
End of Chapter! Yay! Will VG get his sword fixed? What does Li need? Read to find out. R and R.
