Disclaimer: I don't own Card Captor Sakura!
Sorry about the really late update. Really busy recently but I hope that I can update more frequently during the Summer Vacation. (WHOOT WHOOT!) Keep your fingers crossed!
The First Capture
"Katsu….Wakey wakey…." A voice called. I opened my eyes saw a yellow face hovering right in front of mine.
"What the freak!" I shouted, causing Kero to tumble backwards. I yawned and looked at the clock of the dresser. 7:15. Lots of time to get ready. I brushed my teeth and put on my uniform. When I reached for my book bag, it was unexpectedly really heavy. I shrugged it on and headed downstairs, where Fumiko was dragging her suitcase to her car. She was moving to Tokyo to attend the university there. Now I get all the food…..aw dang it, I forgot Kero is here. Oh well…
"Ohayogozaimazu Katsu!" Mom greeted me.
"Ohayo Okaa-san!" I replied, devouring my French toast. When my mom wasn't looking, I snuck some French toast into a container which I tucked into my bag, saving them for Kero and Suppi. When I arrived at school, I was once again greeted by a ton of love letters, plus some tacks in my shoes from who is I guess jealous guys.
"Talk about jealous….." a voice said. I looked around wildly, trying to locate the source. When Kero popped out of my bag, I almost screamed but he covered my mouth before I could. I grabbed his tail and hurled him across the room.
"What the heck are you doing here!" I shouted, quickly putting on my shoes.
"Well, we wondered how your school looked and it's possible that there's a Clow card in your school. Then we can sense it!" Kero said happily. I considered his point. I sighed and gestured towards my pocket of my pants. They were probably deep enough for them.
"Hop in guys," I mumbled. Kero cheered while Suppi just kept staring at the door that connected the locker room to the main building. "What's wrong Suppi?"
"Do guys feel that aura? The aura of a-," He started.
"Sakura Card," Kero said, finishing for him. I looked around wildly for the card and spotted Mitsuo by the door. I was about to greet them when I suddenly realized that Kero and Suppi where still floating around.
"Uh…. Mitsuo this is just ahh…..Puppets! Yeah puppets so….." I struggled to explain when I heard Suppi cry out, "Watch out Katsu!" I jumped out of the way as a sword came crashing down into the space I was just in. What surprised me that it was Mitsuo wielding the sword. When I landed back on the ground I realized that his eyes looked hollow. The sword was similar to the European rapier in our textbooks. The tip was a diamond (the shape) and the cross guard was a pair of wings.
"It's the Sword Card. Take out your key and repeat after me! The Key that holds the power of the stars, reveal your true form before me. I, Katsu, under our contract, release." Kero shouted quickly.
"The key that hold the power of the stars, show your true form before me. I, Katsu, under our contract, RELEASE!" the moment the last word left my lips, the magic seal appeared underneath me and the key grew longer. It was five feet long and one of the tips was diamond shaped. The other was a small gold ball. The diamond tip was about 13 inches longs and 4 inches wide at the middle and was gold with a ruby star in the middle. A leather grip was placed in the middle of the shaft, which was royal blue. Two thin gold wires wound their way close around the shaft from the grip to the points the on each side of the grip. I made sure it was firmly in my grip and charged at Mitsuo. Luckily I took lessons on how to use a staff for fighting. I blocked all of the attacks while Suppi and Kero filled me in on information on the Sword Card.
"It uses the user's heart for strength and gives the user the ability of a master swordsman!" Suppi shouted.
"Sakura used the Illusion card but we only have Earthy…." Kero mumbled.
"But maybe we don't need a card," Suppi said suddenly. Kero looked at him in disbelief. Suppi pointed at me. I was thoroughly confused now. I shook my head and focused on the fight. I noticed something earlier and wanted to test it. When Mitsuo raised his sword I ran at him but he swung down his sword just in time. I smirked but he just stared at me. I ran off and he chased me down. He was on the track team with me last semester so I doubt I could beat him physically…. Eventually I led him to the roof. There I dodged his attacks, shivering when he hit and cracked the floor. Then after a long game of tag, I stopped and smiled at him. I pointed at the floor. Kero and Suppi, who by now catched up to us, looked down and noticed a large ring where Mitsuo had hit the floor. I tapped the ground inside the ring twice and watched as the ground crumbled. Thankfully there was only an out-of-order bathroom. But then again the school staff will come rushing up here. Mitsuo, who was in the middle of the ring, had jumped out of the way. While he was in midair, I lobbed a rock at his wrist, causing him to drop the Sword. I ran and caught him and he wasn't exactly a light weight. When I set him down I walked over the fallen Sword and positioned my staff above it.
"Return to your true form, SAKURA CARD!" A blank pink card appeared from the tip and the sword was sucked in. the card then floated into me hand and I looked at the picture that was depicted. A sword was in the middle and was bound by chains. I smiled at my first capture.
"Uhh… Katsu…" Kero whispered. I turned toward him and noticed the destruction.
"Heh heh…. Oops?"
