CARDCAPTOR CHRONICLE: SUNSHINE ADVENTURE


EPISODE SIX ON THE WAY HOME

The school bell rang, signifying the end of the school day. The students all rushed off, some to friends, some in parent's cars, some in school buses. As for the pair, they walked from school and started home.

"I wonder if Sakura will be all right," Amor wondered. "I mean, she looked terrible."

"I know," Bert answered him. "And her behaviour…"

"What do you mean?"

"Usually Sakura's all cheerful, full of energy and excited about life. But ever since we got here, she's gotten suspicious. She has gotten to the point where she's kind of…paranoid."

"That's what I'm saying," Amor agreed with them. The two went over to an intersection and waited for the light to change. However they were greeted by a voice. "Hey, wait up!"

They soon saw two figures making their way towards them and soon Madison and Sakura where right in front of them.

"Thank goodness we've caught up to you two," she panted.

"What's up," Amor asked her.

"Nothing," Madison answered him. "We just wanted to walk with you."

"Okay," Bert said suspiciously. "You're happy to join us." The light changed and soon the two pairs where walking with each other.

"So, tell me about yourselves," Madison said.

"What's there to know, were from Britain." Amor said sarcastically.

"Yeah, we know that. But we want to know about you more. Right Sakura?"

"Oh…yeah," Sakura said. She was obviously not paying attention and Bert was noticing this.

"Do you know people named Eli Moon and Miss Mackenzie?" Madison asked.

"Who?" Amor questioned her but then Bert intervened. "Ah yes, those two."

"So you do know them," she said happily.

"Yes. Eli was a gifted person. Always helping people and being all gentleman like. As for Miss Mackenzie; she's was good teacher who uses her skills effectively."

Amor whispered to Bert, "When we get home, you tell me who those people are." Bert nodded as he had got it. He turned to Sakura who was silent. "Amor, why don't you talk to Madison for a while. I would like to have a word with Sakura."

"What!" Amor exclaimed. "Why should I…"

"Just trust me, okay!" Bert whispered. Amor turned to Madison and began asking questions like: "How's life in her own world?" and "What's her hobby?" and while this was going on, Bert started to talk to Sakura.

"Hi," Bert greeted her. "How are you doing?" Sakura made a slight grunt noise.

"Would you mind telling me what's wrong?"

"Do I have to?" she asked him.

"What happened to you Sakura? You didn't used to be like this."

"What do you know about me?"

"Well for one, they used to be energetic, active, looking forward to each day…"

"How would you know about that?"

"Well…um…" Bert was struggling to find an answer. "Let's just say I have my sources."

"Yeah, sure."

Bert mumbled to himself, "Hey, don't put your hang ups on me just because Li didn't show you his feelings in the same way you did…" Sakura looked at him.

"What? What did you say?"

"Oh…I said nothing. Nothing at all…"

"You said something," she persisted.

" I said 'it was nothing.'"

She then looked at the ground while walking, "You said something about Li, didn't you."

"ShitShitShitShitShit," Bert's mind was going. "I didn't…well…what I mean to say…"

" How did you know about Li?"

" Did I say Li? What I meant to say was…um…love! That's right! Love!"

" Forget it," she said. "Say, what do you know about love?"

" Hmmm?"

" Well, I think that you're a good listener and big with words. You should know something about love."

" I do know something about the topic love. Let's see…love…a strong positive emotion of regard and affection; "his love for his work"; "children need a lot of love."

"Are you a dictionary," she asked.

"Only if you want me too," Bert said sarcastically. The two pair walked to a crossroads.

"We'll be going this way," Madison pointed out. "And we'll be going this way," Amor said. "Well, until tomorrow."

" Yes, until tomorrow." Sakura said.

" Say hi to Kero for me," Bert mumbled.

" What?" Sakura asked.

" I didn't say anything," Bert said smiling. "Well, see you." The pair separated and as they were walking, Madison and Sakura walked with each other.

" So what did you and Bert talk about?" Madison asked.

" Nothing much," Sakura said to her. "He knows about Li and Kero…How does he know?"

"Shit, goddamn it to hell," Bert shouted.

"What happened?" Amor asked him.

" I just revealed stuff to her," Bert replied. "Why do I have to have an opinion?"

" Because you're a bighead."

" Shut up."
