Chapter 2: First Secret Revealed
A/N: Before we begin I have to say this Meilin has already given up on Syoaran and is now having her fun tormenting him and Sakura. But she does sometime revert to the whole "Syoaran is my to-be husband..." anywho on with the story.
The Old Cherry Tree
Syoaran and Meilin were already there when Sakura and Kero came. Meilin of course greeted her with a comment that some would take as an insult. "So, your still wearing Daidouji's works?"
Sakura blushed," Of course."
It was Syoaran's turn to talk, "Speaking of Tomoyo-san were is she? It's not like her to be late." Sakura then explained why Tomoyo wasn't there.
"HA! I told you I was the superior chef! I would NEVER burn myself cooking!" Meilin said, once again trying to prove that she was superior.
"Meilin that's mean! Tomoyo hurt herself really bad. It's not nice to laugh about it." Sakura said trying to defend her best friend.
Trying to get to the topic at hand Kero asked why Meilin came back. "I came back because of Syoaran's mother. She said that since Sakura transformed most of the card of Clow, that she would be in danger and she sent me back as a reinforcement." After a sigh and sweat drop from the group, Syoaran reminded Sakura why they were there in the first place.
Sakura stood before the cherry tree and pulled out the Return Card and transformed it sending her back to the time of Clow Reed.
(I'm sure all of you have watched the last of the Cardcaptor Sakura episodes right? Right? So there is no need for me to re-write it. Kapeesh? And if you didn't, all Sakura did was talk to Clow Reed and yeah. She saw Kero and Yue in Eriol's house. That's about it. Now just to let some of you people know. The following will somewhat shadow the dub. I have completely tweaked it for my own enjoyment. And I do mean Tweak...or is that "I have taken a mallet to it till it fit my story"?)
About a half-hour later, Sakura came out, falling into the arms of Syoaran. Both blushed in embarrassment and stepped back looking away from each other. Meilin cleared her throat, Sakura and Syoaran turned back towards the group. Trying to conceal his blushing Syoaran started, "Well Sakura, what did you see."
"Well I saw Clow Reed, he was talking to Yue and you Kero. But, the strange thing is that they were all in Eriol's house!"
Kero landed on Sakura's shoulder, "But Sakura, I think I would remember being in that Eriol kid's house."
Syoaran looked from Kero to Sakura, (insert dramatic pause)"There memories have been erased!"
"That is correct!" All spun around to see a shadowy figure standing on the temple arch. "Now Mistress of the cards, face me and show me your power!"
Sakura's face went white, "That's the boy from my dream!"
"Sheesh Kinomoto, I thought Syoaran was your dream boy," Meilin rudely interrupted, and both Sakura and Syoaran were blushing again.
"Mistress of the cards!" Sakura looked up at the boy once again, "Behold the face of the one who will be the undoing of you and the world!"
The boy lifted up his head and revealed his face. The group all gasped. "Eriol!"
Eriol sneered at the group, "Now behold MY power!" With that Eriol called forth Ruby Moon, and Spinnel. But they were different. Their eyes looked soulless, empty. Then he lifted his hands towards the sun and darkness stretched across the land.
Sakura heard a slight gasp and she turned just as Meilin fell. "Meilin! Syoaran, what's going on? Meilin just fell asleep. Do you think it has to do with Eriol making the sky go dark?"
"Of course. It has to be."
"Ah, I see you both are still awake." Eriol almost seemed disappointed. "But that will matter not. For you all shall succumb to my spell."
With that the wind picked up and the sound of soft singing could be heard. Then out of nowhere another figure appeared. This time it was a girl, who seemed to be riding a wolf. The girl wore a purple kimono, her face hidden and her long dark hair pulled back. When she spoke her voice sent a wave of calmness over Sakura, Syoaran and Kero. "Not if I have anything to say about it."
The look on Eriol's face seemed to darken. "And what brings, YOU here Mistress of the Wolves?"
"Syoaran, that's the girl! She was with Eriol, in my dream!"
"I have told you multiple times not to refer to me by that name. And I am here to make sure that you don't succeed." With that the girl pulled out a katana and channeled energy within it and released it at Eriol. Who merely threw up a hand and replied it back at the girl, sending her off the arch. She was caught by the wolf and replaced on the arch. When the girl looked up her face was no longer covered. Sakura couldn't believe her eyes.
Eriol laughed an evil laugh then spoke, "So, is that all you can do. Throw small energy blasts? I knew you had more power than that, Tomoyo."
A/N: Dun-dun-dunnnn... yup-yup that's were I'm going to leave it because I have to really edit the next chapter. Don't be surprised if it takes me a while...I'm sorry. It's just that when I wrote the story I just wrote it, but I left out some pretty crucial stuff. Actually if you read the rough drafts of the first 3-4 chapters and then read the ending of the 5th then you will see a dramatic difference.
After this I have to admit that Meiline kinda gets forgotten about. Out of sight, out of mind, you know? Looks up Damn! I put in another "e" well to bad. As long Luci doesn't get pissed off about something stupid again I will update faster. A girl with black hair walks up in a huff and starts to argue with Anexsis, until a girl with purple hair and strange tattoos breaks them up.
Girl with purple hair: Sorry bout that but like Anne said "as long as Luci doesn't get pissed off" Well since Anne is busy I'll say it: Till next chappie: How Deep do Secrets Cut.
