Hey Everybody!

Back from the grind of relaxation and work to give you the latest update on our little Cardcaptor. Time for her to face the water card! Thanks for all the favs, follows, and reviews that keep this story alive! Enjoy!~

The Battle of Love! Sky vs. Water!


The aquarium was closed for the day. The security guard was asleep at his desk. On the monitor, two girls and a flying cat zipped through the hallways. Nighttime was the best time to capture a card.


"Is it really gonna be all right?" Happy inquired anxiously. Wendy was hitting a fast pace now, running down the hall for all she was worth. Chelia they left behind, and slipped through an unmarked door to find the reserve water tanks.

"Leave it to me and my waterproof jester outfit!" Wendy smiled as she examined her getup. The outfit consists of 3 colors, which are white, blue and yellow. The main part of the outfit, the white suit, had a split skirt, which allowed Wendy to easily move around in the outfit. Attached to the end of each tail is a small ball and the tails at the front of the skirt are far smaller than the rest of the outfit. The suit is very small although this allows Wendy to move around freely in the outfit. There are two large cuffs, which replace the sleeves on the suit. This outfit also has a high collar with two tails at the front with yellow balls attached to it. There was also a blue hat with golden balls hanging from it. The pointy shoes topped off the whole outfit.

"This is where the magic feels strongest. It's here." Wendy nodded and pulled out her phone, pressing auto-dial.

"Hey Wendy." Chelia answered.

"Did you find it?"

"Bingo. First floor basement."

"All right. Then hide somewhere." Taking one last moment to smooth her jester costume's skirt, Wendy leapt to the edge of the pool with her staff raised. "Juvia! Come get me if you can!"

But nothing happened. Wendy frowned and peered into the tank. She prodded the water with her staff, but nothing jumped out. "I have Gray The Ice Card!" She tried yelling.

Now Wendy could feel the stirrings of power beneath her, of an explosive force getting ready to unleash itself upon her. She stepped back just before a geyser erupted in front of them.

"Now would be a good time to fly!" Wendy felt her wings sprout from her back, and she sailed out of the room and down a corridor, water streaming behind her. Flapping as best he could, Happy tailed them both.


Wendy had never realized how loud water could be. Water was always just there, a quiet and passive substance that she washed her face with, or swam in, or watched flowing in the creek. Before this, she'd never realized how utterly cacophonous it could be, what a terrifying roar it could create. It was behind her she knew, directly behind her as it crashed against the walls and splashed loudly in an effort to catch up with her. Parts of the force behind her was splitting off, raining down around her and trying to slow her down. She couldn't let that happen, and began to fly evasively, darting around the attacks and doing her best to fly in an erratic pattern without losing speed.

She could see Chelia now, waving with one arm while holding the camera steady with the other. Wendy whisked past her and shot through the doorway, zooming down the stairs with water gushing just behind her.

Adrenaline was pumping hard in her bloodstream now, and she wondered how much longer she could keep this up. Then she realized that she didn't have to; she'd reached her destination at last. The huge solid door was a comforting presence, and she screeched to a halt before it.

"Time for a little wind magic!" Wendy summon the wind card and combined her powers to gain her sky form. The water stopped and formed a human body, Juvia.

"So the Cardcaptor thought she could trick Juvia into following her? Juvia will not be made a fool of." She said, before stretching out her hand. "Water Nebula!"

Wendy flew to avoid the water coming at her. A fight was not what she had in mind, however. She positioned herself behind Juvia, surprising her.

"Juvia you need to chill out!" Wendy exclaimed.

Suddenly, Juvia's eyes formed little hearts. "Chill out? Does that mean Gray-sama is nearby?" She turned around in all directions, looking for her icy crush.

"Wind Slash of the Sky Dragon!" Wendy shouted her new move as Juvia got hit with the windy blades. The door flew opened and she pushed Juvia inside. Wendy slammed the door shut again and sank to the floor, breathing raggedly.

"That was great, Wendy!" Happy cheered, as he and Chelia caught up at last. "If you freeze water, it's easy to capture it."

"I'm glad I could be of use to you." Chelia said. She took her eyes off the view-screen long enough to check her watch. "It should be about done."

Wendy nodded and dragged herself to her feet again, pulling open the door warily. But the danger was immobile now; Juvia stood there, frozen with a forlorn look on her face.

"Return to the guise you were meant to be in. Fiore Card!" Wendy struck the air with her staff, and the ice sculpture dissolved in a haze of magic before being sucked toward the beak of her staff.

"But how did you ever come up with it?" Happy pressed, not even waiting until the Card had floated into her open hand.

"It was all thanks to what Jellal told me one day." Instantly Wendy felt as if she were floating on thin air, thinking about Jellal.

Happy waved a paw in front of her eyes and got no reaction.

"Oh man, even Wendy is frozen now. Hey, we even get a punch line this time!"

Chelia giggled, even as she zoomed in on Wendy's expression.

"Show your guts next time, too, Wendy!"


Later….

A cold frost thicken on the windows of the Dragneel house. Wendy curled up in her bed, the air around her chilly and cold. I can't sleep because of the freezing cold weather. And it's only fall! She thought. She tossed over and snuggled against Happy, who flinched slightly.

Meanwhile in the basement, ice covered the entire basement floor. Around the whole area, thick sheets of ice covered everything. two figures stood up in the cold, both having nothing on their chest.

"I believe this is the Cardcaptor house. Not too shabby I suppose." One said.

"Well let's try not to make a big mess. We both may know ice magic, but we can't just freeze her house. Let's just remain in card form for now." The other said.

The air around them froze everything as one of them walked into the moonlight of a window. His dark blue eyes glisten in the light and his raven hair blowing softly in the wind.


Next Time: Wendy's Tiring Sunday! Frostbite Early in The Morning!

Sorry for the short chapter, but I had to wrap up episode three. I promise a long chapter next time though. Can you guess the two cards for our next chapter?

As always review and good night!
