The Mysterious Dream, Awakening
"It's this dream again." Mizuki Kai thought to himself.
"I will be waiting for you…" at the far end of the tower he could see a woman who had long hair, tall and slender. Beside her was a creature that had long ears and had a shape of a Chinese tradition bun. Not to mention, the woman was holding a long staff with symbols of stars, moon and sun. She was in a black cape, a short skirt and long boots. Her long silky hair was blown along with the gentle wind. At the back of her, was the beautiful night sky and it was a full moon night. In front of himself Kai saw a handful of cards floating in the middle of the sky. Beside him was also a strange creature, it had a face of a bear stuffed toy, besides it was flying.
"Ring, ring…" the alarm sounded. Lazily, Kai turn of the alarm.
"Young Master Kai is you awake? Your breakfast is ready and Madam requested that you would be in the main hall within 15 minutes." Kai was still half asleep, he glared at the clock.
"What! It was already this late!" Kai immediately jumped out of his bed. Within 10 minutes, Kai got himself ready and rushed to the main hall, where he saw his family members sitting accordingly waiting for his arrival.
"Kai, as the descendant of the Mizuki's made sure that you are punctual not late every time. Also as a person who possesses sacred magic of the Mizuki family should have knew how to keep ones promises, you just promised to us that you wouldn't be late yesterday and in addition you had always been late for a month… " Kai listened patiently to his grandfather's morning lectures. "Bon Appetite." Kai said loudly, in order to shorten his grandfather's daily lectures.
After finishing his breakfast, Kai stood up and headed straight towards the front door. "When ever would this child grow up, he is our one and only descendant." "Father, you should have realized by now. The dream Kai is having recently, is a future dream, of course it would drain his powers away. That thing should have been in the process of awakening by now. We, as Kai's elders must protect him with all our might." "I wonder what the future would be like and what would happen to the mystical bond Kai and the other girl share." "The future of the world would be in Kai and that girl's hand."
"Good morning, everyone!" Kai said cheerfully.
" We are here, Kai!" Kai's friends shouted.
"Good morning, guys." Kai walked towards his friends-Amamiya Akito and Ayaski. As he walked through he noticed that her seat was empty.
"Maybe that she hasn't arrived" Kai thought to himself.
"Kai, I noticed that you were staring at Ayashi's seat while you were daydreaming, are you…" "I'm not," Kai replied as he was blushing.
"Even if you like Ayashi, you should know that there is a low percentage that she would return your feelings. After all, you had already studied in this school for three years; you should have known that Higurashi Ayashi was a renowned ice queen and a loner. Even though that I must admit that she was a beauty- her slender body, delicate lips, mesmerizing amethyst eyes… "
"Bonk, bonk…" a loud smashing sound was heard. Kai knocked hardly on Ayaski's head to bring him back from his fantasy world.
"Stupid, even if you know his feelings you shouldn't have blurted it out. Our school's princess Ayashi was an ice queen and our prince is also renowned of his fiery temper"
"BONK!!" the loudest bonk had landed on Akito's head. Just then, a beautiful woman walked in. It was Ayashi, and Kai blushed.
"Class dismissed…" the ending of a long week had finally arrived, time flew pass and the day ended while Kai was staring at Ayashi constantly. Ayashi of the Higurashi family, she was the eldest daughter. Her family consisted of both her parents and a younger sister, Ayume and her grandmother who was about the age of Kai's grandfather. Ayashi rarely talked about her family. Kai have been secretly in love with Ayashi since they were freshman. Ayashi had a pair of amethyst eyes, which mesmerizes people, yet so distant and lonely, it also seems to contain sadness which could not be expressed. Ayashi was always quiet, unlike other girls who were chatting along cheerfully and happily.
"I'm home!" Kai said as he stepped into the Mizuki mansion.
"Welcome home, Young Master." Wei, his old butler welcomed him home with a warm smile. Kai dipped himself into the warm bath his family servant had prepared for him.
"Strange, it was already summer yet it was still so cold." Kai thought to himself. After having his bath, Kai laid down lazily on the bed listening to his music.
"Ding, ding" a sound caught Kai's attention. "Come to me, the descendant of Mizuki Matsuya. Come to me and release me."
"Where are you?" Kai said. "The light will direct your path." the voice replied. Just then a path of light appeared, Kai follow the path, and it directed him to his family library.
The light ended on the book, The Clow. Curious, Kai opened the book. Inside the book it contained a number of cards. Kai picked a card out of the mysterious book.
"Windy…" he read. A strong gust of wind surrounded him suddenly. When the wind ended, Kai noticed that the cards were gone. He sat on the floor. Most of the books in the library belonged to his grandfather and he will check them once in a week to make sure none of them were missing.
"I'm done for." Kai thought. A yellow light along with a bear-like stuffed animal with a pair of small wings came out of the book cover.
"Hello!" the stuffed animal said. Kai was shocked.
"Aren't you a stuffed animal? How could you talk?" Kai asked.
"Long time no see, Cerberus" said a voice coming from the back. Kai turned and was surprised, he saw his grandfather standing at the back.
"Long time no see too, old man Mizuki Azukiya." "Grandfather, I'm sorry." Kai begged for forgiveness at once. "There's nothing to be sorry about, my child" Kai's grandfather replied, it was the first time his grandfather did not scold him for doing the wrong thing.
"I have already known that the time for awakening would have arrived sooner or later, after seeing you draining your powers at the dream." "The dream?" "Aren't you having strange dreams recently?" "Yeah, but how did you know?" "I knew it all along." "Hey! How come no one is bothering me anymore?" the stuffed animal asked annoyingly.
"You could talk?" Kai asked once again.
"Of course. Firstly, stop calling me a stuffed animal. After all, I'm the guardian of this magical book. Secondly, I'm known as Cerberus."
"But I think Kero would suit you better." Kai said while he was giggling. "Whatever! You're really exactly the same as her." said the guardian.
"Allow me to remind you, the Chosen One of the Mizuki family, you now have an important mission to complete. You have just scattered the Clow Cards if you did not know and by this time it should have landed into the hands of a judge of the Five Force Knights. You as the Chosen One of the Mizuki family would be responsible on capturing the cards." said Kero seriously.
"Why would I have to capture it when it had already landed on the hands of the judge?" Kai asked innocently.
"Stupid fool! The judge was responsible of releasing the cards in order to let you capture them and for you to pass the final judgment. You better hope that it had not landed on the hands of the Mistress of the Night." Kero replied.
"Why?" Kai asked once more. "BECAUSE THE MISTRESS WAS MORE POWERFUL AND CLEVERER THAN THE OTHER JUDGES." Kero shouted loudly at Kai.
"What's your name by the way?" asked Kero. "Mizuki Kai." Kai answered politely.
"Stand there." Kero commanded.
"Power of Darkness, please grant this Chosen One of the Mizuki clan power in order to complete the quest, the Chosen One, Mizuki Kai should hereby fulfill the contract with you. RELEASE!" Kero said.
"Kai take the staff." "Got it." "After a moment, the contract was completed. Azukiya stood near to see the most memorable moment of his grandson.
"Once you have completed this contract it means that your power had been fully released." Kero told Kai. "Yes." Kai replied.
"Now I know why you are familiar! You are the creature that once appeared in my dream." Kai exclaimed.
"This boy's power is much stronger than I thought; maybe he was the one that could break this curse, after he was a part of it." Kero murmured.
"We would surely become great partners; I'm looking forward to it." Kai spoke after the long silence. "Yeah, perhaps." Kero replied. While the new knight was elected from the Mizukis, they were too happy, they did not even realized that there was a pair of amethyst eyes looking at them from far…
