Chapter 6:

Friend or Foe

Eriol flipped through the pages to make sure what he is reading is true. Lucky for Eriol, Celina burst through the door. "Hey, what is taking you so … Eriol what are you doing?" Her voice changed from cheerful to annoy instantly when she saw Eriol holding on to that book. Eriol looked at her angrily, "What the hell is this?"

Celina blinked, "A book, what else could it be?"

"Did you free Redagen?"

"Where did that come from?"

"Celina, you fully know this is one of those magical books!"

"Yes I do, and I believe it would be wise of you to put the book down."

"Is that a threat?"

"Eriol, you don't know anything about me or this book."

"I know you wouldn't hurt me or the others."

"Don't be making judgments … You have no idea who I am. Eriol please put that book down."

"Did you free Redagen? That is all I want to know from you for now."

"Yes …"

Eriol's anger flared. Is she the enemy then?

"Don't tell the others. If you want to know more I will tell you this weekend perhaps."

"Why shouldn't I? You lied to us."

"I did no such thing; I just didn't tell you about this like you left out about the guardians."

Eriol was silenced. He had no idea how she knew.

Their conversation was interrupted when Sakura came into the room."Hey Lina … Eriol what are you doing?" Celina gave Eriol a pleading look. Eriol looked down and realized he still had the book. "I…found…" Eriol paused. Sakura looked at Eriol, "You found what?" Eriol sighed; he knew he was going to regret this, "her diary." Sakura looked at him disbelievingly.

Celina smiled, "Well, its okay. I don't put much in there anyway." Celina bended down and picked up the piece of paper she had asked Eriol to get. "I have to make my speech now." She took the book away from Eriol, "I will meet you downstairs, I need to put this somewhere else where it won't be so easy to find." Sakura nodded and left.

Eriol walked towards the door and before he left he said, "I want answers." Celina closed the door and hid the book.

Celina walked down towards a little stage set out for her to make her speech. She walked up and held on to the microphone. She waited for the room to be silent. She tapped on the microphone to have complete silence. Everyone looked at her. Celina took a deep breath and began.

"Good evening ladies and gentlemen and Merry Christmas. I know you are all anxious to go to the dinner so I won't take too long. I know when all of you look at me you see a teenager, not someone capable to run a business. If I was 10, 20, 30 years older you would not say such a thing. Does age really matter so dramatically? Someone can do something when they believe they can do it.

My parents owned this business and when they passed away, the company was in jeopardy. I could not let my parents loose the company so, I took over. It was probably wasn't the wisest decision, people would have given the company to someone more capable, more experienced. Yes, people treat me like a kid. I would have suspected them to. But, no matter what I would continue to own this company because I know my parents would have wanted me to. I took tutoring courses instead of going to school so I could fit my schedule. I just hope one day, you will be able to see me as someone capable of running a business instead of just another teenager."

Celina walked down and met with her friends. The crowd had disappeared to the dining room to get their meal. They entered the very large dining room. The table cloth was decorated with white snowflakes and a dark blue background. Chandeliers hang around the room to emit a beautiful light. Everyone ate quietly. Soon after the meal was over, everyone had left except for Sakura and her friends.

"They finally left." Celina said collapsing on the couch.

"You were the one who decided to have a party," Mei-ling said.

"They suspect to have a party. I would rather have a normal party. So, what you want to do? You guys could try the virtual game I have."

Celina led the guys to the living room and asked for the game. It took 5 minutes or so to set up the game. She gave the 4 guys a mask and a suit needed to play the game. When they started, she led the ladies up to her room. (Stupid guys … only care about their game lol. jking xP)

They went to their rooms to change because their shoes were killing them and they were a lot more comfortable in jeans and a t-shirt. They flopped down; Sakura's bag began to have slight movements from the inside. Tomoyo bit her lip and nudged Sakura, who was right next to her. Sakura looked at her and followed Tomoyo's eyes and reached her bag. Sakura sighed. Again? Sakura thought. Sakura went over to her bag and heard Kero whisper, "wood". Everyone looked at her, "What are you doing?" Celina asked.

Sakura didn't answer and went through the pile of clow cards. She stopped at wood. She put the cards into her pocket and transformed her key chain. No one said a word. They just simply watched her. Sakura wasn't sure if the spirit would jump out from the card or suck her in, but this time she would be ready. She looked at Nakuru, "Can you come here please?" Nakuru walked over to Sakura. She tapped the card with her staff and felt herself being sucked in. Nakuru grabbed on to Sakura, "You guys stay okay?"

Sakura and Nakuru disappeared into the card before anyone can answer. They entered into a forest. The forest was dark and cold. Sakura shivered, "This is a lot worse then snow. She could barely see anything. Sakura heard soft cries from what she believed were animals.

Nakuru had changed to Ruby Moon and stood next to Sakura examining her surroundings. Sakura brought in some light with the light card. She saw something dash away and chased after it. She soon lost it and was lost in the forest. Sakura looked around and thought what could she possibly do? She looked above her and activated the fly card. Ruby Moon followed Sakura as Sakura reached to go above the forest. A force was preventing her to go above the forest. The harder Sakura tried, the heavier the force got. Soon the force forced Sakura to head straight down to the forest floor. Ruby Moon caught the girl before she hit the ground. "Thanks" Sakura said. Ruby Moon nodded.

"Mistress, try to sense the card's presence." Ruby Moon suggested. Sakura closed her eyes; she felt a faint power that could have been the card. "I feel something but, it might not be the card." "It's the best chance we got."

Sakura walked towards the power but it grew fainter each step she took till she could no longer feel the power. Sakura stopped and looked around. She heard nothing, the silence frightened her. She jumped when Ruby Moon spoke, "Mistress, why did you stop?" "I can't sense the power anymore." Ruby Moon nodded.

They explored the forest for hours, and saying they were lost was an understatement. Sakura felt as if her legs were dead. They were going uphill and the farther they went, the more trees they saw. Sakura began to hate trees and the outside air. She just wanted to find the temple or whatever she was looking for and free "wood". Sakura looked around, the sun was rising. She relaxed a bit with Ruby Moon right next to her. When the sun shined enough light to see her surroundings, Sakura was freaked out. She held her breath to keep her from screaming.

Creatures were surrounding them. They were carefully camouflage in the darkness but the sun showed their dark color and revealed the animals. They all curiously looked at Sakura. "What in the world? Why is there … BUGS?" Sakura jumped away from a tree that the tiny creature was from. All the creatures ran away because of the sudden outburst as well as the tiny creature. Sakura followed them; she activated "dash" so it would be easier to follow. She stopped when she came upon a shrine. It was wrapped in vines.

Ruby Moon destroyed the vines to enter but the vines just wrap around the shrine again. Sakura burned the vines with "firey". Sakura and Ruby Moon quickly entered the shrine before vines blocked the entrance again. They were surrounded by plants and lucky for them, more vines.

"Okay, now where is the wood?" Sakura sighed.

"Well, we can try every room or the farthest down this corridor." Ruby said.

Sakura activated the fly card and soar threw the room to avoid all the vines placed around them. They entered a large room and in the northern wall stood a statue wrapped in vines. Sakura flew up to the statue and faced the spirit of the "wood". Sakura got off her wand and stood right between two vines. She raised her wand ready to free the evil spirit entrapping the "wood".

Vines grabbed her feet and flipped her over. Sakura dropped her wand in the process. The vines brought her 5 feet away from her wand and the statue. She turned her head to see Ruby Moon fighting off the vines. They wrapped all around of Ruby Moon and all they revealed was her head. "Great" Sakura said sarcastically.

Meanwhile ….

Tomoyo, Celina, and Mei-ling walked downstairs to see how the guys were doing with the game. Syaoran and Touya were dark knights, Eriol and Yukito were magicians.

"What kind of game is this?" Tomoyo asked.

"It is a RPG game. People can have that suit and helmet on for hours and would not feel a thing. The game is about saving the world basically. They work to be the best Uhh… in Syaoran case, the best dark knight and Eriol, the best magician."

They nodded. "Let's boot the guys out and play." Mei-ling suggested.

They agreed and when the guys were in a safe house, they pulled off their helmets. The guys were still in the game and took a second for them to realize they were in the real world. "Hey! What did you guys do?" Touya complained.

"Where is Sakura?" Syaoran asked.

"Where is Nakuru?" Yukito asked.

"They are still in my room", Celina said simply.

"Well, I am going to check on SA—"

"Lets continue playing, I want to play!" Tomoyo interrupts Touya.

"But, it's only for four players" Syaoran says.

"Okay then …."

"Syaoran and I have to go anyway." Mei-ling said drugging Syaoran away before Syaoran questions.

"You guys play, I am going to check on Sakura." Celina said.

"I am going with you." Eriol said.

Tomoyo and the others looked at them confused. They shrugged it off and put on the helmet.

"What happened?" Eriol asks.

"Sakura got trapped in the wood."

"Get her out then."

"I can't."

"Why not?"

"I just can't."

"You can't or won't?"

Celina turned to him, "Why would I want to trap her in the card?"

"I don't know, you tell me."

Celina rolled her eyes and went into her room.

She picked up the card, "Sakura is fine, but what is taking her so long?"

"How long has she been in there?"

"Two hours."

"Two hours?"

"Does Sakura know how to release the spirits out of the card yet?"

"What? You mean to fight beside her? Is that even possible?"

"In the world she is, yes that is very possible.

"How do you know all this?"

Celina didn't say anything. Celina turned over a rug on the floor and looked at the wooden floor. She yanked the wood off the floor easily and took out the book.

She flipped through the book and stopped. Eriol took a peak at the book and read the words "Mind Controlling"

"What are you doing?"

"Whose mind do you want me to enter?"

"What?"

"Sakura or Ruby?"

"Uhh, Ruby."

"Okay, hold."

They both spoke in a mere whisper.

Celina sat Indian style and closed her eyes like she was mediating. Celina entered Ruby's mind and kept Ruby from the usual shaking so no one would be suspicious especially Sakura. Celina tried to move but realized that vines were wrapped around her. She shook her head and left the Ruby's mind after she examined the situation.

When Celina opened her eyes Eriol questioned what had happened. "They are in a pretty tight spot, I am going to enter Sakura's mind. Eriol, if Sakura says anything about this happening don't say anything. You can make your theories but do not tell her anything please." Celina said calmly. She entered Sakura's mind and took control of her.

Celina concentrated on "firey" She did a hand motion that it seemed as if she picking something up. As she slowly lifts her hand, a spirit rose. The child's eyes slowly opened and the gem on it's' forehead glowed. Ruby looked at Sakura impressed, Celina left Sakura's mind before Ruby was able to speak.

"They are going to be fine now." Celina said

"How can you be so sure?"

"Well, Sakura is bound to tell you what happens. If she doesn't, you can always bug me later. I have to go", Celina said and placed the book back. She left the room and ignored any words Eriol said.

Back to Sakura D

Sakura opened her eyes and found she was free from the vines. She looked and spotted
"firey" standing right next to her. "Huh? What in the world?" Sakura said looking at the girl. "Mistress, how did you do that?" "I don't know." Sakura ran up to the statue and tried to release the spirit but a force shot her back.

Sakura breathed. What the hell? How am I supposed to free the spirit? Sakura looked around to find the source of the vines. "Firey, can you fly up with me?" Sakura activated the "fly" and soared up to the top of the shrine, Firey followed. There saw an enormous flower. Firey tried burning the flower but it just grew again. Okay the vines are coming from this flower. Every flower has roots, which should be under us. Sakura thought. She soared back down and vines immediately attacked her. Firey burned all the vines before it reached her.

Sakura used Earthy to break the floor and she saw soil. She used Thunder and caused a huge hole in the ground revealing the roots. She allowed Firey to burn the roots.

The vines begin to shrivel up and turn brown. Sakura went up to the Wood and tapped the statue with her wand. The evil round ball appeared and Firey cast a whirlwind of fire which burned it to a crisp. (YAY! ;D) Sakura released the Wood from the entrapped statue. The maiden thanked Sakura and Ruby Moon. Firey returned to her card and Sakura and Ruby Moon left that world.

Sakura and Naruku walked down to see Eriol, Touya, and Celina sitting down watching television.

"Where are the others?"

"They left." Touya said simply.

"Your brother and I were waiting for you to leave. Supi is even tired." Eriol said pointing to his cat.

"Sorry about that, we can go now." Sakura apologized.

"Great, let's go." Touya said getting up.

"Would you like a ride home?" Celina asked.

"Sure, thanks" Touya said.

Friday

Tomoyo walked in extremely joyful into the large building. She walked up to a woman at the front desk, "Hello, I am Tomoyo Daidoujo. I am here to see Celina Chen to explore this business."

The woman looked at her; she was in her mid-thirties. "Do you have a pass to go and visit her?" Tomoyo shook her head. "Then I am sorry miss, I am not allowed to let you visit her." The woman said.

"But!"

"Ma'am, I have work to do unlike you, so please go hang out with your friends and do whatever you teenagers do these days."

Tomoyo opened her mouth to speak but thought of a better idea. She took out her cell phone and dialed Celina's number.

"Hello?"

"Tomoyo?"

"Hey, could you speak to staff, this lady won't let me in."

"Oh, give the cell phone to her please."

Tomoyo handed the cell phone to the woman, she glared at Tomoyo. She took the cell from her and said, "Hello?" She paused, "Oh, sorry ma'am. I didn't know. Yes, of course." She hung up and gave the phone back to Tomoyo.

"You may go, she is at the top floor and please do not tell her I was rude to you. I am sorry about that, I did not believe you were really wanted to see her. And I –"

"It's okay", Tomoyo said. She went into the elevator and rode into the top floor.

Celina was waiting for her and greeted her with a friendly smile. Right after Tomoyo left the elevator another one opened. Sakura, Mei-ling, Eriol, and Syaoran came out of the elevator.

Tomoyo looked at them confused, "What are you doing here?"

"Well, you can't expect us to just let you look around this place do you?" Sakura said cheerfully.

"Uhh … so do you guys want to see clothes, jewelry …"

"JEWELRY!" Mei-ling and Sakura screamed.

The guys looked as if they wanted to run away.

Celina looked at them oddly but lead them to the jewelry department. A couple of people were sitting down drawing something. The three girls peaked at what the people were drawing. "That is SO cute … And looks at that … it's so beautiful! The girls exclaimed.

Sakura went down to find people drawing things. "This is where they make the outfits, want to see some of the outfits that people are currently modeling?" The girls smiled and nodded.

Their eyes shined when they saw the beautiful dresses people were wearing. A woman was walking around, measuring the dresses and making sure everything is perfect. Tomoyo eyed at the woman and at the dress.

The woman looked up and jumped, "Hello, I was measuring and see if this style was um… What are they doing here?"

Sakura wasn't paying any attention to the woman or anyone else. She looked over to the window and she thought she saw a beautiful woman in a white dress. The woman had beautiful curly blue-gray hair. It looked a bit like Tomoyo's. The woman was smiling. Sakura walked towards the window. "Who are you?" She asked quietly almost in a whisper.

"Sakura!" Sakura jumped. She turned her head to look at Tomoyo. "Yes?" "Are you okay?" Sakura looked at the window and the woman was gone. Her eyes darted across the room looking for her. "Yeah, I'm fine", Sakura said softly. Celina looked at Sakura unconvincingly.

Sakura was spaced out the rest of time. Lost in her thoughts. "Sakura …" Sakura jumped again. Is everyone trying to scare me to death? Sakura thought. She looked to see who that voice belonged to and found Syaoran looking at her.

"Hurry up or we are leaving without you." Syaoran said. Sakura muttered, "Rude".

Celina picked up a stick and started to write something in the snow. When she heard foot steps, she erased the words. Eriol sat down next to her.

"How long has Sakura had the cards?"

"Since 5th grade."

"During 5th grade she also changed them to Sakura cards?"

"Yeah. Why are you so interested about Sakura?"

"Sakura has gone through many tests, one more wouldn't hurt right?"

"What?"

"But her test would not be coming any time soon of course. No, she is too weak. I expected the Mistress to have more control of her cards. I did not realize she needed her guardians that much. No matter, she will grow stronger."

"How do you know so much about the clow cards?"

"I was supposed to claim the clow cards but my family declined the offer." Celina said getting up.

"What about Redagen?"

"I am not the one to talk about him. I believe Ruby Moon and Yue are more appropriate to talk about their dear friend."

"Ruby Moon knows about Redagen too?"

"Well, Ruby Moon and Yue did know each other so it was only natural she knew Redagen too. See you in school, Eriol. Good bye."

Eriol looked as Celina vanished. Eriol wanted answers, if Celina won't tell him, then he will get it out of Ruby Moon and Yue.

Celina walked pass a dark alley. "Were you waiting for me?" Celina said coldly.

A figure appeared in the darkness, "Hello to you too. I see that you have told him. You do know things will be more complicated now."

"I know, are you afraid your plan won't work?"

The figure chuckled, "No, I am only afraid you are going to rethink your plan. It is only a matter of time till they found out who you are."

"And you? Are you willing to come out of hiding now?"

"In matter of time, I will. It is getting rather boring."

"I see. Wonderful then, let the games begin."
