Chapter 3:
Back to school
Sakura trembled. She quickly transformed her key chain into a wand. She tapped the card with the wand and tried to regain control of the card. A bright light glowed. The light grew bigger and Sakura felt herself getting pulled inside the card! Kero and Yue tried to pull Sakura out but instead they were all getting pulled. All three of them disappeared into the card.
They entered a cold icy valley. Sakura shivered, "So, this is how a card looks like in the inside." Kero shook his head, "No, I sense evil energy." They all walk quietly as the cold wind pushed against their faces and icy snow falling down. Yue quickly pulled Sakura back as a huge amount of snow fell from the sky.
Sakura looked up from where the snow fell. Sakura was freezing from the bitter cold. Sakura had a light weighted jacket and a long sleeved shirt and pants. Her legs soon turned numb. Kero allowed Sakura to ride on him. They traveled for what seemed like hours. Till they arrived to a same temple, Kero and Yue just flew up to the top of the temple. They broke through what seemed to be a window and jumped in. The temple was not any warmer than the outside. Sakura shivered as she scanned the room. She saw a little girl sitting on chair. Sakura hopped off Kero's back and ran to the girl. She lifted her wand and tapped the girl. She instantly got pushed back, but something flew out of the girl through.
The thing was circular and was all black with a blue dot in the middle which Sakura guessed was the eye. The creature turned to Sakura and immediately shot a blast at Sakura. Yue quickly grabbed Sakura, avoiding the blast. Kero quickly blast the creature from the behind but it formed a shield. The creature continues to try to hit Sakura but Yue successfully dodges all the attacks. Yue screams, "Kero, a little help!" As the creature fires another blast, Kero uses his own magic and counters the blast. The creature turns around and starts aiming for Kero.
As the creature was distracted by Kero, Yue flew towards the girl and let's go of Sakura. Sakura tries to tap the girl with the wand again, hoping to free her this time. Unfortunately it did not work but once Sakura tapped the girl she thought she heard it say kill the beast...kill the beast. Sakura looked at the creature and screamed, "We have to kill the creature in order to free her!"
On Earth
Eriol walked in Sakura's room and said, "Sakura, do you want to … Sakura?" He walks around and sees the card on the floor. He picks it up and whispers, "Sakura, what have you done?" Then suddenly someone opens the door and says, "Sakura?" Eriol jumps, he puts the card in his pocket and looks at who came in. Elrojo frowned, "I am sorry I frightened you but where is Sakura?" Eriol shrugs, "She probably went for a walk and won't be back for a while." Elrojo nods, "Then I will wait till she comes back." Eriol quickly said, "She takes long walks besides I need a tour guide to show me around this place." Elrojo shrugs and turns around to leave. Eriol throws the card on the bed when Elrojo leaves the room and then leave also, closing the door in the process. Sakura hurry and come back. I don't know how long I can distract him. Eriol thought.
Back with Sakura
The creature turns to Sakura and starts blasting her again. Sakura closes her eyes waiting for it to hit but it never came. Sakura opens her eyes to see Kero right in front of her. "Get on now!" Kero screams. Sakura obeys and hops onto his back. Kero flies up while managing to dodge all the beams firing at him. Yue charges and starts blasting the creature. When Yue is 10 feet away from the creature, Yue was able to harm the creature but was blasted in the process. Yue flies back to the wall. Sakura screams, "YUE! Kero…" Kero just charges at the creature and blasts him while the creature does the same. When the beam was coming straight at Kero, Kero uses his own magic and blasts right above the creature's blast before it hit him. Kero's blast hit right on the eye! The beast disappears as Kero smashes to the wall; Yue quickly grabs Sakura so she won't be squished by Kero.
Sakura was about to run to Kero but Yue stopped her. "Free the girl, Kero is going to be fine." Yue said. Sakura turned to the girl and use her wand and tapped her. A bright light glowed that filled all their surroundings. When the light was gone a girl was standing and the room was warm. Sakura glanced out the window and she saw that there was snow that was sparkling. (You know when the snow has just fallen and no one stepped on it, then the snow is nice and neat. When you stare at it, it looks like it is sparkling? Well, this is basically like that.) The girl smiled and said in a high pitched pleasant voice, "Thank you." Suddenly Sakura felt herself falling; she closed her eyes. She felt she landed on something soft. She opened her eyes to find herself back in the "hotel" room.
Sakura did not have a time to rest. She heard voices and she quickly screamed, "Change!"
Eriol Pov.
I heard Sakura scream "Change!" Elrojo immediately started to run towards Sakura's room. I stopped him before he could go very far. "Sakura screamed, we should check on her." He said. "She said change. I don't think she is in any trouble." I replied. Sakura what ever you are doing, finish it now! I thought. We reached to the door and Elrojo was about to just open the door. I stopped him and knocked on it. "Sakura?" Elrojo knocked this time and said the same thing. We heard some shuffling then a quick "come in" from Sakura. We stepped in to see Sakura and Yukito holding on a game boy. "Hi!" Sakura said. Yukito waved.
I looked somewhat relieved. Elrojo looked at her suspiciously and asked, "Why did you scream change?" Sakura smiled, "I was playing with Yukito and well, if he didn't change we would have died. I am sorry I was a little too in to the game." I was glad Sakura had gotten better at lying.
"Elrojo, would you mind if I talk to Sakura for a moment? We can meet you downstairs if you don't mind." I said. Elrojo shrugs and leaves the room. I closed the door and turned towards Sakura, "What happened? A clow card was on the floor." Sakura laughed nervously, "Uhh…I kinda got uh sucked into the card. I will tell you the rest when Tomoyo and Mei-ling come back from their sight-seeing." I nod. Sakura thought for a moment and said, "Oh! Did I tell you about Redagen?" I looked at her in shock and shook my head. Sakura told me to the last bit of information even the part about Yue. "I will go ask Ruby what she thinks. Besides that, Redagen could not have escaped without some help. With the stories that were told, he was locked in a world that even he could not leave." When I said that, Sakura looked rather annoyed. "Why does everyone know about him except me?"
Normal Pov.
Tomoyo, Mei-ling, and Touya came back around 6 p.m. Tomoyo popped in the living and saw that Eriol, Sakura, and Elrojo were sitting on the couch. She was so jumpy that all three of them looked at her. "The valley is so beautiful! We have to go around tomorrow!" Tomoyo screeched. Touya shook his head, "I don't know if we can. Dad just called and you guys have to go back to school on Wednesday." Sakura eyes went wide, "Why!" "Well, the snow stopped falling and people will be able to shovel without the sidewalks are all covered up again. But, if it snows on Tuesday then you won't have to go to school because the forecast said that a snow storm is coming but it might miss us." Sakura nodded.
"Uh … okay, Tomoyo, Mei-ling and Eriol can I talk to you guys for a second?" Sakura said. They exchanged glances with each other and more then willingly followed Sakura to her "room".
Sakura took a deep breath as she told them everything about her getting absorbed in the card. Eriol was the only one not staring at her agape. Sakura stared at her snow card. Eriol gave her a suspicious look, "You are not going to use the card to make it snow are you?" Sakura shrugged, "It wouldn't hurt. I mean the reason it was snowing was because of the card anyway." "Let nature determine if it will snow", Eriol argued. Sakura sighed, "But, I want to stay and ski and look at all the sights Tomoyo was talking about." Eriol sighed and said, "Wake up early tomorrow, if it isn't snowing then use the card."
Sakura opened the curtains in her room around 7:30 a.m. Light snow fell from the sky but not enough to end a school day. She took the snow card and transformed her key chain. When she tapped the card she saw the little girl. The girl smiled and tilted her head, "You want no school?" Sakura nodded amazed. "Okay!"
Sakura quickly changed her wand back in a key chain and put her card away. She changed into some jeans and a blue shirt with a polar bear on it. She walked out of the room and in the living to find that Elrojo was already up and was reading something. "Good morning!" Sakura said cheerfully. Elrojo looked up from his book and said, "Good morning, you wake up early." Sakura smiled, "hehe, this is like the only time I wake up early." Elrojo nods and put his book down, "Do you want some breakfast?" Sakura nods and follows Elrojo in the kitchen which was on the same floor.
She entered into an extremely large room. It was like he was running a restaurant or something. A woman looked at them and said, "Good morning Joe and Miss Sakura." "Good morning Elaine, what is for breakfast?" Sakura said, "Uh … good morning Ms. Elaine." The woman laughed, "Call me Elaine and we are have blue berry muffins, waffles, pancakes, coffee, orange juice and milk. Take your pick and if you want more I can always make more."
Touya came down around 8 a.m. He walked into the kitchen and saw Sakura, "Good morning, hey Sakura you actually woke up early?" Sakura gave him a death glare. Before Sakura could say anything Tomoyo, Mei-ling, Yukito, Eriol entered the room. Everyone ate in silent till Touya broke the silence. "It is snowing so school is cancelled again. School is going to be open on Friday so we are going to leave at Thursday." Mei-ling took a bite from the muffin and said, "It is just one day of school before the winter vacation, I don't see why they can't just give us the day off." Elrojo sighed, "They want their money."
Thursday
This was the last day they will be spending with Elrojo. They all got to know each other pretty well and a very comfortable stay.
Sakura packed all her stuffs and dragged her luggage out of her room. Elrojo just happened to past by her room and helped her bring the luggage to the living room. "Thanks", Sakura smiled. Everyone was waiting for Sakura in the living room. Everyone said their good byes and hopped in the car heading back to home. They reached back home around night tiem. Everyone departed and headed for their homes.
Eriol was walking home, it was getting really dark. He passed by the beach and saw a girl sitting down staring at the night sky. Eriol watched her for a while and decided to ask what she was doing here. He walked rather quietly towards her. He was startled when he heard her speak. Her voice was somewhat threateningly but it was high and pleasant, "Hello, what are you doing here?" Eriol walked closer towards her till they were 3 feet apart, "I was going to ask you the same thing." The girl turned around and Eriol saw a skinny Chinese girl around his age. She had long black straight hair down to her waist. Her brown eyes were innocent and yet hurt.
She looked at him. Eriol sighed, "I rarely see people sit on the beach this late in the night especially if it is winter." She chuckled, "Well, where I come from it never snowed and it was near the ocean. Besides anyone can sit here and all their worries will be swept away." Eriol looked up at the starry night sky, "Yeah I guess. I presume you have a problem?" She stared at the night sky and sighed, "You can say that. Do you live around here?" Eriol sat down next to her and nodded, "Yeah, umm … you said some about where you came from. Did you just move here?" She looked at him and nodded. "My name is Celina Chen. People call me Lina." "My name is Eriol Hiiragizawa. Please to meet you."
Celina and Eriol stared at the stars till midnight and chatted. "Wow it's late." Celina says staring at the stars. Eriol nods, "Would you like for me to walk you home since it is late and it will be dangerous for you to walk home alone?" Celina laughs, "That is real kind of you but I can take care of myself. Bye!" She runs off as Eriol waves.
Sakura sighed sleepily as she turns off her alarm. She looks at her alarm and screams. "I am going to be late!" She quickly changes and runs outside grabbing her school bag with Kero inside. She quickly roller blade to school and was glad that she made it before the bell rang. Then to her surprise Eriol came soon after. They rushed to class and quickly sat down. Sakura sat in between Tomoyo and Mei-ling, while Eriol sat next to Tomoyo. Tomoyo looked at both of them confused. "Did you two come here at the same time? Eriol usually is not late." Sakura shook her head taking deep breathes, "No, he came when I came." The bell rand and the teacher step in the door. He put his bag down on the table and said, "I hope you had a good week off because we are going to have a pop quiz." The class mourned. The teacher cleared his throat, "Before we do through, we have three new kids."
Mei-ling bit her lip and leaned over to Sakura. "Sakura I think I should tell you something before it happens. " Sakura looked at her confused.
That is the end of this chapter. It is quite obvious what Mei-ling has to tell Sakura. But I hope you still like the chapter, bye!
