Disclaimer: I do not own Cardcaptors or anything to do with it

I decided not to point out any more important events anymore, I will just let you guys figure it out (laughs evilly)

Also, I would like to say thank you to the following people for taking there time to review my story so far:

Daughter of Water

Also to answer 'Daughter of Water's question about whether or not Sakura will be using magic in the game, and she will also be able to use the Sakura Cards in the second sequel to this story when someone whom I am not going to reveal just yet, actual has the cards programmed as actual game items into the game, just for Sakura. Also, when I said the second sequel, I meant that after this story there is going to be a sequel, and another sequel for that sequel. Here is the order of the stories and there names (please do not find it weird that already have TWO sequels planned for this story):

A Journey Begins

A journey Begins 2: Master Sanctuary

A Journey begins 3: Ultimate Tournament

Anyways, here is the 3rd chapter of 'A Journey Begins'

Chapter 3:

A warrior's job is to kill. A doctor's job is to preserve it. But a teacher's job is to educate these two on how to do their jobs.

The Thoughtful Teachings and the Horrible Happenings (man that was cheesy)

Sakura moaned as she sat up and rubbed her aching head, wondering what had happened. She slowly stood up and took in her surroundings, a dense, dark forest. However, she did not have much time to get her thoughts together because suddenly there was a loud growling sound, coming from right behind her. Startled she looked around and saw a hideous, red-eyed, devil horned, black wolf, staring at her hungrily.

Without thinking Sakura ran for her life as fast as she could, with the demon wolf right behind her. She ran for what felt like an hour when suddenly, BAM! She ran head long into Syaoran, who was also fleeing a pursuer. Before they could say anything to each other, the demon wolfs were upon them and the fight commenced.

The demon wolf lunged at Sakura but Syaoran intercepted it, knocking the wolf down. Sakura then tried calling her star staff, but gasped, realizing that she didn't have her star staff! The two card captors backed up slowly until they bumped into the cliff. More demon wolfs appeared as the cornered us up against the cliff wall.

What appeared to be the leader, stepped towards us. We shivered as it glared at us with bright, red eyes, and then suddenly the demon wolf opened his mouth and let loose a stream of black mist like substance. As the mist enveloped Sakura, her head started to spin, and just simply dropped to the ground with a thud, while Syaoran did the same shortly after. The last thing Sakura remembered before blacking out, was hearing a wolf howl.

Later that night:

Sakura, yet again, found herself sleepily waking up after what felt like being thrown around a lot. What WAS different about her situation was that instead of being cold in a dark forest, she was lying under what looked like some sort of animal fur in a warmly lit cave. She looked around and nearly cried out in shock at what she saw. There wolves of almost every color you could think of. White wolfs completely filled up one section of the cave, making it look like it was covered in snow. Gold and Silver wolves could be seen watching protectively over all the others from atop high perches. Adorable, amber, timber, red, blue, even candy striped wolf pups were playing here and there. The only type of wolf she did not see was those demon wolf things.

She heard a slight groan from a spot next to her, so she turned around slightly to locate the source of the sound, and when she did, she jumped slightly and blushed seeing what it was. Lying under the furs next to her was Syaoran, sleeping peacefully. "Boy, he sure is cute when he's sleeping," she thought as she brushed away a few loose strands of brown hair from his face.

Then she heard footsteps coming from the other direction. Turning quickly she saw a boy of about 14 summers (that was the old way for saying, years old), with unkempt ginger hair, and hazel green eyes. The boy saw Sakura, walked over to her and said, "So you finally decided to wake up huh?"

Sakura looked up at him and replied by asking, "Who are you?"

The boy slapped himself in the forehead and said, "Oh sorry. How rude of me not to introduce myself. My name is David."

She blinked and said, "Ok David, what am I doing here in the first place?"

David explained to her exactly what happened. It turned out that he had been just wandering around in the woods when he had heard the cry of a Devolf (those demon wolf things) which he knew only meant one thing, some helpless newbie got themselves in a situation they could not handle. So he rushed to their aid and when he saw just how many devolves there were he let out a cry to signal his wolf friends (the wolf howling that Sakura heard before blacking out) and then jumped in to drive the devolfs away from them. Afterwards he brought them to this cave where we find ourselves in now.

By the time David had finished his story Syaoran had woken up and Sakura told him what she had been told while David went and gotten them something to eat. David returned after a couple of minutes with two bowls of some steaming substance. Sakura and Syaoran devoured it without even asking what it was, they just ate it. After putting away the bowls, David decided to introduce them to a few of his wolf friends.

Sakura's POV:

David had been showing them around and introducing us to some of his wolf pals for the last couple of minutes, which is when something I found strange caught my eye. It was a lone wolf just sitting by himself, looking as if he was the loneliest person in the world. So breaking off from the group and walked over to the wolf. Up close she just couldn't help but admire his clear water colored fur. She knelt down besides the wolf and asked, "Hey, are you ok?"

The wolf sighed, looked up at her with sad eyes and replied, "Far from it."

Sakura nearly fell over in shock when she heard the wolf talk, but then she remembered that she was in the game, stuck in the game for that matter (David told her during his explanation) so she just asked, "Can all of you wolfs talk?"

The wolf sighed and replied, "No, just a few of us."

"Then why are you all by yourself," Sakura inquired.

"Ok first of all let's get one thing straight, my name is Lyall, and not the wolf. And to answer your question Sakura, all the other talking wolfs were killed during a hunting patrol," replied Lyall.

Startled Sakura asked, "How do you know my name?"

Lyall smiled slightly and replied, "Everyone here knows your name Sakura. David told us about you when he brought you and that other boy here."

"OKKKK… but how did David know who I was," Sakura asked.

David suddenly popped up and replied, "Simple, I just had a look at both yours and Syaoran's character screens."

Seeing the confused look on Sakura's face, David then took the time to explain to her how to bring up the different menus and look at the character screen of other players (the accessible screens are as following: Character, Status, Items, Equipment, Magic/Special Abilities, Mission, & Party the team player is in ). After his explanation, David took Sakura and Syaoran outside where he was going to give them a quick rundown on the basics of the game.

David also explained that the players that registered using the special codes start off at a high enough level of experience that they go straight from Student to the next level of classes. After a moment of thinking, Syaoran decided on Warrior and Sakura chose Mage.

David smiled as Sakura and Syaoran shone brightly for a moment then reappeared wearing different pairs of clothing than they were before. Syaoran was wearing a green tunic, brown hunting pants, black leather boots, a dark blue headband, and a violet cloak. Sakura on the other hand, was wearing a light pink robe with the hood off of her head, light blue leather shoes, and a silver circlet with an emerald encrusted in the center.

After the two were done checking themselves over, David pulled out two long, wrapped packages and handed them to Sakura and Syaoran. In Sakura's there was a finely crafted wooden staff with the stars carved into the handle, and the tip crafted into the sun and moon. In Syaoran's there was a light-weight, iron short sword, sharpened to the point it can cut through stone if used properly. Sakura and Syaoran looked up from there gifts to thank David but he had already disappeared. After a few moments David returned with Lyall. Confused, the two were about to inquire why Lyall was there but David answered before they asked, "Sakura, Syaoran, Lyall here has told me that he would like to join you on your adventure."

Sakura and Syaoran were shocked but finally Sakura answered, "Ok Lyall. You can come with us."

A little later, after collecting some food and copper coins, and putting them away inside some backpacks provided by David, they decided they were ready to head out. Before they left David said to them, "Remember Sakura, Syaoran, no matter how tough things get, you must never give up," and with that, he handed a compass to Syaoran and pointed the way to the nearest town. It is now that Sakura's and Syaoran's Journey Begins.

Again I would like to thank everyone who has reviewed my story so far. There are two things I would like to say: One, if anybody has an Idea for a character please tell me in your review; two, if there is any part of my story that you do not understand then please tell me in your review and I will do my best to make it understandable. This Necromancer Gora signing off.
