Forgive me, I forgot to insert this chapter the last time. I am so flipping stupid.

I do not own Card Captors. Card Captor Sakura, or anything that actually belongs to Clamp.

I am not copying myself off of quizilla where my name is WistfulEyes.

Please enjoy whatever you find entertaining in the story.

(Tsukishiro-san's P.O.V)

Tsukishiro-san fell down rather bewildered, he sure as heck didn't see that coming at all. Getting up he saw that a classmate of his had barrelled him over and spilled all of his groceries, which also happened to be his dinner (Yuki eats a lot. Like me. I love food). Sighing, he grudgingly picked up his dinner, along with the help of this certain classmate whom he couldn't recognize at the moment.

"I'm sorry," his classmate's shaky voice breathed out, before sprinting away.

Tsukishiro-san caught his classmate's wrist and was about to thank them before he noticed that she was crying.

"What's wrong?" he found himself asking grasping his classmate's wrist and holding her in place gently making sure she wouldn't run off. Slowly, his classmate brought her head up, as if trying to find the courage to answer. When they locked eyes, Himitsu's lip trembled and she buried her face into Tsukishiro-san's shoulder.

"Daijobu-ka?" Tsukishiro-san asked.

"Iei," Himitsu sniffled. "Wa-wata-ta-sh-shi wa adama conguli Tsukishiro-san," she gave a short gasp before she continued. "I can't remember…remember…anything, w-why is this ha-hap-penning?"

"What happened?"

"I DON'T KNOW DAMMIT! I JUST SAID THAT!"

Tsukishiro's eyes widened before he pushed her away, and she fell on her knees trying to hide her sobbing face. "Let's get you home," Tsukishiro-san found himself saying before he had time to think. Grasping her by her arm, he lifted her up and started towards the opposite direction of his home.

"Where do you live?" Tsukishiro-san asked.

"6 Nia Crescent," she sniffed one last time before calming down.

"Come I'll take you there," he stated before he started to drag her towards her house in an awkward silence. He felt her squirm in his grip and he tightened it afraid that she would run off.

"Please let go of my arm, you're hurting me Tsukishiro-san," Himitsu whimpered out and he quickly let go apologizing just as quickly. Himitsu fell into place beside Tsukishiro-san making small talk with questions such as how Himitsu felt about her new home in Tomoeda, questions that revealed nothing about her personality but displayed her emotions.

"I'm hungry," Tsukishiro-san remarked before Himitsu laughed.

"I'll get you something to eat once we get home okay?" Himitsu offered before the world around the two became pitch black. "Tsukishiro-san…wh-what's happening?"

Glancing around nervously, Tsukishiro-san kept an eye out for anything out of the ordinary, before he felt a small soft hand grasp his firmly, applying an almost bruising grip.

"Hi-Himitsu?" Tsukishiro-san stuttered nervously.

Nervously biting on her fingernail, Himitsu replied, "I'm scared of the dark Yu-Tsukishiro-san," and he couldn't help but smile at the reaction and squeeze her hand back reassuringly while he continued to scan the darkness for any trouble, when the hairs on the back of his neck prickled uncomfortably for a moment before Himitsu gave out a cry before her body suddenly fell forwards, I tried to catch her but Tsukishiro-san beat me to it, having barely caught her around the middle before she hit the ground. Afraid he had seen me; I quickly stepped back far enough so that way his eyes could not penetrate the darkness. Hugging Himitsu tightly, Tsukishiro-san squinted into the darkness to see if there was any danger…

"Let me out," Yue's voice rang through Tsukishiro-san's head. Closing his eyes, Tsukishiro-san felt Yue's personality surface and was mentally preparing himself for the lull of sleep whenever this happened, however…there was something different this time. This time, although he was no in control of his actions, he could see, hear, and feel everything that was happening. He was awake.

Yue was holding Himitsu in his arms with his wings thrown up high into the air defiantly challenging those who dared to defy him. Tsukishiro-san sensed something behind him and Yue whirled around blocking the assault with his arm that was glowing light blue with his own magical energy. Tsukishiro-san could sense Yue's surprise when Yue realized that a girl was wielding a fan of epic proportions. She had short whitish-silver hair with two unnaturally long bangs that hung down past her waist. She had a dark grey kimono on with white flower designs stitched onto it. In her hands were two large wooden fans with plain golden-yellow paper. The darkness that had engulfed Himitsu and Tsukishiro-san was slowly disappearing.

"Who are you?" Yue demanded.

"Umeko," Umeko answered in an even voice, her dark purple eyes betraying no emotion.

"Who is your master?"

"She does not wish to reveal herself to the likes of you."

"Souka," Yue stated while carefully placing Himitsu onto the ground, while he mentally and physically prepared himself for the fight that was about to ensue.

"Don't you dare hurt my mistress," Yue warned before he shot forward with his arm glowing dangerously. When he was about…ten centimetres away from her, Yue put on an extra burst of speed before he slammed his fist down onto the pavement making the bricks fly everywhere before looking up to witness that his assailant had jumped up to dodge the attack. Flying up with tremendous speed, Yue met Umeko head on and unleashed a series of punches and kicks at a frightening speed, only to be aggravated by Umeko when she simply strapped the two humongous fans onto her back and blocked each assault with her hands and arms while she created clouds to stand on.

Guessing that Umeko did not have wings to fly with, Yue flew backwards while he created his energy bow. Creating three arrows at once, Yue flew around gallantly, sending volley after volley of arrows only to have Umeko block them with her fan glowing of red energy, looking stoic and distinctly bored. While firing his arrows Yue distinctly noticed that Umeko needed the support of the clouds in order to suspend herself in the air. Summoning multiple volleys at many different angles before summoning a powerful arrow, Yue carefully aimed the arrow at the cloud before he let the string go, piercing and breaking the cloud before Umeko started to fall. Stringing the bow quickly, Yue rushed down and fired multiple shots at Umeko only to have her summon a red barrier around her while she plummeted like a rock onto the ground. A large boom sounded throughout the neighbourhood possibly waking up the entire world it was that large. Umeko carefully let the barrier down before she swung her fan at Yue, whom having barely avoided the attack, got a few strands of hair lopped off before he set his bow and fired at Umeko in the shoulder and nailed her into the ground. Yue saw her visibly wince in pain before he fired multiple arrows into her body and clothes effectively pinning her into the ground.

"Any last words?" Yue asked before summoning an arrow aimed decisively at Umeko's head.

"Now Ume!" Umeko whispered.

"Roger Will co Umeko!" a familiar high-pitched annoying voice sounded before purple strings sprung up from the grounds and bound Yue to the ground. "Here Umeko, let me help you with that."

Yue stared up at the sky, struggling against his bonds he tried to turn his head to see exactly who had bond him to the ground when to the surprise of both Tsukishiro-san and Yue, they found that they were unable to move their head because the person had effectively bond their body to the ground so that way they could not move a single millimetre out of their position. Yue suddenly saw Umeko come into view along with another familiar person.

"You!" was all Yue could muster up at the moment.

"Yes me. And I finally have a name now! My name is Ume thank you very much and I would appreciate it if you would address me as such," Ume, formerly known as the cat-angel to both Yue and Sakura-chan, royally announced.

Kneeling down, Umeko's hands glowed carmine before Yue felt one of her hands slowly sink into his chest. Her other hand slowly roam over certain parts of Yue's chest before stopping over his heart. Out of the blue both of Umeko's hands plunged into a specific part of his chest and Yue's body shook in pain before he started thrashing his wings, arms and legs desperately trying to free himself from the purple bonds Ume had placed upon him. Within Yue, Tsukishiro-san felt faint, and he was transported into a world of black like he had been before. However, there was one thing that he could see very clearly, he could see cute little Sakura-chan within her room sleeping with the star cards placed upon her desk.

"It's after the star cards," Tsukishiro-san realized. "I have to stop her. I have to stop Umeko."

Click. Clack. Clack. Clack. Umeko's traditional wooden sandals sounded across the imaginary floor of the current plane (or was it dimension?). Tsukishiro-san whirled around while the bow he used in competitions appeared and he took it without a second thought. Loading an arrow into the bow, he aimed it steadily at Umeko. Firing, Umeko merely sidestepped the attack while she continued to trudge forth towards Sakura-chan's room. Not being a magical creature himself, Tsukishiro-san could not put up much of a fight against Umeko, but he did manage to keep her at bay for quite a while before she whipped out her fan and bluntly bashed it against Tsukishiro-san's legs, paralysing him somehow. Marching forward, she placed her hands onto the image before the same procedure began with Yue. Sinking her hands into the image, Tsukishiro-san saw that she was trying to steal the cards by lulling them slowly towards her, Umeko had managed to hypnotize Sweet, Loop, Twin, and Little towards her before Tsukishiro-san had managed to crawl forward enough to upset her balance by painfully swing his arm into her knee. Umeko collapsed onto the ground, and slammed her wooden sandal onto his right cheek. Tsukishiro-san drew back and felt his face, taking his hand away from his face; he saw the sticky red liquid on his fingers before he saw Umeko walking off. Spotting the bow near him, he loaded an arrow before carefully taking aim and letting go. He witnessed the arrow sail through space and when it was about fifteen centimetres away from Umeko's head, she spun around and caught the arrow between the tips of her index and thumb. Umeko shot Tsukishiro-san an icy glare (that effectively sent chills down his spin) before letting the arrow drop. Smirking, she disappeared back into the darkness and Tsukishiro-san was thrown back into reality so suddenly that he swore he felt his mind blur as though he was about to have a migraine.

Tsukishiro-san distinctly heard Yue groan before he heard Umeko remark, "Got 'em."

"About time too! What took you so long anyway?" Ume snottily remarked.

"His borrowed form was in there. Now let's get this done and over with shall we?"

"Right."

Both Yue and Tsukishiro-san felt the wires move so that way they were standing upright, but they still seemed to bind to some thing pole-like object. Then Tsukishiro-san saw that one of Umeko's fans was missing. Moving their heads, both Yue and Tsukishiro-san saw that they were bound to Umeko's closed fan, but their attention was quickly snapped back Ume and Umeko when they both felt a large surge of energy emitting from the two of them.

It was a strange sight. Umeko was chanting while a magic square was beneath her. The square was rotating beneath her while she chanted something in a foreign language that neither Tsukishiro nor Yue understood. At three of the four corners of the square there was a small design. One was the yin-yang symbol, the other looked to be the sun, and the other a moon, and the last corner was blank. Umeko's purple eyes glowed in concentration while the physical forms of Sweet, Loop, Twin, and Little were slowly coming out of their cards. Ume on the other hand was pressing her index fingers to her thumbs forming the shape of the rectangle while she muttered something under her breath and created four glowing green rectangles that hovered in mid-air. When the figures of the cards completely detached themselves from their former cells, Ume's wires came seeping out of the cards before slowly, hypnotically, wrapping themselves around the figures and forcibly dragging them into the glowing green rectangles. The cries that emerged from the cards were brutal. Sweet's voice was no longer saccharine but high-pitched and was obviously in duress. The sounds emitting from the others were in their way showing their own panic.

Tsukishiro-san felt Yue close his eyes in order to block out the sound. However, Tsukishiro-san felt that if anything, it increased the volume in which it was at. After one last ear-splitting shriek from The Twin, Yue opened his eyes to witness what had happened. The figures of the cards were now in purple and red cards that were a burlesque of the Star Cards; even the figures were a mockery of their former forms. Their pupil-less eyes were open and were all in exaggerated fighting poses and all the figures were green instead of white. Yue winced at the sight while Tsukishiro-san noticed that Umeko was slowly but decisively walking towards them with the pink Star Cards in their hands. Yue thrashed about trying to escape the treatment from before, but only succeeded in receiving it but only twice as painful since he could not stay still long enough for Umeko to actually find the spot she was looking for. After Umeko had roughly shoved the cards back to their proper place, Ume removed the binds from Yue, while Umeko retrieved her giant fan. Yue tried to land on his feet but only managed to fall forwards and to Yue's dismay and Tsukishiro-san's understanding, their legs were paralysed. Yue felt a blow to the side of his head from a blunt wooden object and his arms were being wrapped carefully in thick purple ribbon. The last thing he saw was Umeko lifting Himitsu off of the ground before he felt the familiar sensation of flying through the air.

(Hanayaru's P.O.V)

Groaning, you shivered from the cold before snuggling into something warm on your right. Realizing that it was not your blanket, you opened your eyes only to have a blurry vision greet it. You realized it was a person who had a brown shirt on and their arm was draped over you, looking up you saw that it was Tsukishiro-san and he looked rather worse for wear. Checking your watch, you saw that it was nine o'clock, and you decided to wake Tsukishiro-san up.

"Tsukishiro-san? Okiro. Tsukishiro-san?" You beckoned him, gently nudging him.

His reaction was to hold you closer while groaning, "Just a few more minutes…"

"Tsukishiro-san, please wake up," you begged, slightly red in the face.

Groaning, Tsukishiro-san opened his eyes and scanned his surroundings, a look of utter confusion ran across his face before he directed his attention down to where you were, squished between his arm and his body slightly red in the face. Quickly letting go, you saw that he was trying to hide his blush but was failing horribly because he was so pale. Leaving him to deal with his own shenanigans you got up and dusted yourself off, and later offered Tsukishiro-san a hand, you pulled him up, thinking that he would be able to go from there but instead ended up loosing his balance and falling on top of you while your head banged painfully against the pavement. You moaned from the pain while you felt Tsukishiro-san push himself off of you, getting up again, you once again offered Tsukishiro-san a hand but this time, instead of letting go, you draped Tsukishiro-san's arm over your shoulder, and proceeded towards your house.

"Ano…Himitsu? My house is the opposite way," Tsukishiro-san pointed out a few minutes later.

"Yeah, I know, but since you can't seem to move, I don't really trust you to take care of yourself right now. So we're going to mine. My father should be home… I think…"

Reaching the front of your house, you rang the doorbell and heard the sound of your father's heavy rumbling footsteps reach the door. When he opened it, his eyes widened in shock before resizing themselves again. Grumbling to himself he opened the door to let the two of you in before he helped you place Tsukishiro-san onto the couch.

"Take care of him Hana-chan," your father instructed. "The medicine should be in the closet of knick-knacks. I need to get some sleep for tomorrow's meeting, since it's going to be tremendously, tremendously boring…"

"Take care O-toh-san, sweet dreams."

"Sweet dreams Himitsu-gii-san," Tsukishiro-san wished.

"Don't you dare try anything funny with my daughter, bozu."

You sweat-drop at your father's words to Tsukishiro-san before shaking your head and leaving the room to get the first aid kit, and ice from the kitchen. Going back to the room Tsukishiro-san was in; you poured some rubbing alcohol onto a cotton swab before applying it to his right cheek. You saw Tsukishiro-san wince from the sting rubbing alcohol had on cuts before you threw the cotton swab away and applied a band-aid with some medicine onto it. You gave him ice to keep down the swelling on his face and on his knee.

After all this was done, the medicine put away, and you had salvaged an apple for him to eat, you asked, "What happened, Tsukishiro-san?"

You could see him contemplating his answer before he replied, "I can't explain it myself. I wasn't myself a little after you had passed out."

Nodding in understanding, you got up, and without looking at him you said, "Stay here for the night."

"I beg your pardon?"

"Stay here for the night," you repeated once more while turning around to face him this time. "Whoever's out there is still out there, and I don't want to send you back to your house knowing that somebody might harm you."

"You're too kind Himitsu-san," Tsukishiro-san remarked after a pregnant pause.

"Hanayaru."

"What?"

"Hanayaru, please call me Hanayaru."

"Likewise, call me Yukito," Tsukishiro-san offered his hand for the agreement.

Smiling, you took his hand into your own, and you shook hands in agreement. Yukito-san stared at your eyes for moment, making you rather uneasy.

"You have silver eyes."

"What?" "Weren't they brown earlier this afternoon?" you thought to yourself.

"They're unique. I like it."

Using you as an anchor, Yukito-san slowly stood up and stared into your eyes, with a gaze that seemed to spell out that he was admiring the intensity and the colour your eyes held. You flushed red when his face kept getting closer and closer to yours; he was very close now...your noses were almost touching…

"I said don't try anything funny with my daughter kid," your father's deep reprimanding voice reached the two of you before Yukito-san blushed a bright red before jumping away. Trying not to let the colour show in your face, you turned towards your father and asked, "Where are the extra blankets?"

"Let him sleep in the extra room," your father answered. "It's right next to mine so that way I can keep my eye on him."

The next morning you awoke with a yawn and a stretch, getting up, you made your way to the bathroom, feeling quite lousy, while you were brushing your teeth your eyes gravitated towards the mirror. To your shock, your eyes had reverted back to their original colours, your right eye was brown and your left eye was silver. Panicking, you looked around the cupboards trying to find your coloured contacts. Thankfully, you had found them and decided on green contacts for the day. Emerging from the bathroom, you were at first quite confused when Tsukishiro-san greeted you, but then remembered what had happened last night, or rather, what you did not know what had happened last night. Nonetheless, you were thankful that you had arose early because Yukito-san had asked you if you could walk him back to his house, of course you did. You could never turn down a reasonable request from a friend; then again, you did not really ever turn down anyone's requests in the time that I knew you…

Yukito-san and you walked towards his house, chatting about the sky and the earth and everything in between. You were asking him if he had finished last night's homework when suddenly the pounding footsteps of Sakura-chan closed in on you two, breathless Sakura doubled over trying to catch her breath, and it was only then did you notice that she was in pyjamas carrying a strange wand with a star and wings fixed upon one end.

"Ohayou gozailimus Sakura-chan," you greeted. "What's wrong?"

"I-I need, I need to…speak with Yuki-kun," Sakura-chan said breathless.

"Sayonara Yukito-san, I'll see you at school."

You turned around intent on leaving, and when you were far away, you heard Sakura-chan all but shout, "Yuki-kun, I can't use the Sweet, Loop, Twin, and Little anymore! They're gone! Why? What happened?"

"…I think, I can explain…" Yukito-san started.


Souka I see

Bozu kid/squirt.

Gii-san mister. The unstressed version means grandfather.

Watashi wa adama conguli I have/am (not sure) a concrete head. Other words, I'm an idiot.

Ohayou gozailimus overly formal way of saying good morning.

Sayonara If you don't know this, you need to get out a bit more.

Ano um...really. It means "um..."

Dammit I hate editing. I've edited so many times now I think I have sections of this damn ficcy memorized.
