Chapter Six:
Tomoyo and Sakura just sat on the bed. Just a moment ago, they had introduced themselves to each other. Right after that, they both elapsed into silence. Sakura was confused, while Tomoyo had tons of questions to ask. Thing is, none of them knew the answers. They just sat there in an uncomfortable silence, until Tomoyo spotted the pendent around Sakura's neck. Sakura followed her gaze and looked at her pendent. Carefully, she took off her necklace, and tried her pendent/key. Amazingly, it fit.
There was a 'click' sound, and a sudden burst of light. Sakura and Tomoyo shielded their eyes with their arms. When the light faded, they were both quite disappointed that they were still in their room. But on the cover of the pink book, there was now a little figure, yawning. The girls were both taken aback by this. It was like a little bear with wings, which made it seem almost fake. But they both knew that this wasn't a dream. Slowly, the creature began stretching drowsily, all the while staring at Sakura.
Tomoyo couldn't help herself. "KAWAII!!!!!!!!" she squealed. Luckily, she caught herself before she could wake up the whole castle. The "bear-with- wings" flew slowly up to Sakura's eye level, and stared her in the eye.
Finally, it couldn't help itself. "YOU are supposed to be the chosen one? THE mistress of the cards?" He just couldn't see how such a fragile girl could have so much magic. Sakura had no idea what he was saying, but she felt hurt from the way he talked, as if she were very weak and useless.
Tomoyo, observant as she is, noticed the look in Sakura's eyes. "Now look at what you did," she said accusingly at the creature. "At LEAST explain about the situation before you start hurting people's feelings.."
^*^*^*^*^*^*^ Xiaolang ^*^*^*^*^*^*^
Xiaolang didn't know how long he was there, but it seemed awfully long and torturous. Suddenly, he felt the strange aura again. Almost smiling to himself, he got up and followed the aura the best he could.
Wandering around for hours, Xiaolang was just about to give up when he ran straight into something hard with a crash. Uh-oh.
There stood a guard, fully dressed in armor, standing all above him. Uh-oh wasn't the best way to describe the trouble he was in. 1) He couldn't do anything in the maid's dress he was wearing, which leads to 2) he'll probably have his head cut off before the next sunrise, since there was no choice but to surrender. Reluctantly, he followed the guard towards whatever awaits him. Little did he know that it was already past sunrise.
^*^*^*^*^*^*^ Maid's Quarters ^*^*^*^*^*^*^
*Knock, knock* Tomoyo bolted up. If someone was knocking on the door, it would be smart to answer, before you get into deep trouble with the boss. Boss meaning the person looking after their jobs. She was still sleepy from last night's late talk. The animal, or Keroberos (they call him Kero), was explaining to them about everything while complaining that he was hungry.
She made her way to the door, feeling as if she would faint if she had to walk any more than those few steps. Opening the door, she received a note from the maid outside. Of course, the other maid was of higher stature. Tomoyo herself had only been at the castle for half a year or so. Shaking Sakura, she greeted her with a cheerful smile. As cheerful as she could manage, that is.
^*^*^*^*^*^*^ The King's Study ^*^*^*^*^*^*^
They just HAD to be in some trouble. Why else would the king want to see them? Carefully, the girls stepped in. They both bowed and curtsied. You called for us, you majesty? Eriol didn't seem to care of formalities. He merely nodded at them to get up. "I wanted you to come for one reason. One, the other young lady you were sharing a room with-" at this, Tomoyo and Sakura's ears perked up- "the 'young lady' actually turned out to be a young man."
The girls' eyes widened. "HENTAI!!!" they shouted to no one in particular.
But Eriol knew, and carefully explained to them that he was just trying to get in the castle. "And as for the second reason. . ."
By the way, how was it? Please r+r. Also, I have found this great fic. CCS lovers should like it, I think. It's called The Legend of Ometin, by Piggy Ho Ho, in case you haven't read it yet. it's a really cool fic. Anyway, that's all!
