Destiny
Chapter 1: Feeling
"Ring!"
"Darien…" said a sleeping Serena.
"Serena" said the cat. "Serena!"
"Darien…I do…"
Luna was stating to get annoy, so she went up to her mistress and softly pulled her hair out of the way only to scratch her by the jaw and scream in her ear "SERENA!"
"OWWW!," the ondago said, "Luna, that hurt!" she continued soothing the spot where Luna had scratched her. "Why you do that for? Huh?"
"It is almost eight and you promised the girls that this time you would be on time!" Luna threw back at her.
"WHAT! I have to hurry up!" jumping out of bed and racing through her bedroom to the bathroom and then back again. Serena was ready in record time, however she still had to get to Rei's shrine in less than ten minutes. Racing downstairs she picked up a toast and raced out the door.
'I have to hurry up! I can't be late! Rei would kill me if I'm late again!' she thought to herself racing down the street. She was almost at Rei's, she had gotten faster with all her practice as Sailor Moon, but most importantly she always raced to school every morning, she had not changed at all.
"Almost there…almost there…yes I'm gonna make it!' she thought she was so happy she didn't notice a group of teens walking towards her, all to busy talking to notice her. And then Serena clashed with a girl and boy from the other group.
"Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry I wasn't paying attention to where I was going…" Serena trailed off giving a hand to help the girl up. As soon as the girl took Serena's hand, they both felt power, great power at that. Serena suppressed a gasp, as soon as the feeling hit her she was in the defensive. She had to be careful as to not be obvious, but she had to be ready.
"No, no! It's my fault too! I should've seen you!" she said, embarrassment clearly of her face and eyes, however confusion an nervousness was there too. While the girl was apologizing Serena was trying to help the boy but he refused, clear disappointment showed on her face. She wanted to find out if the boy, too, had magic. She then started to inconspicuously look over the group they all appeared to be in their 14 years or so, the girl in the middle, who she had knocked down and was still apologizing, had short brown hair and emerald eyes. The boy next to her, who she also knocked down, had messy brown hair and amber eyes, he looked alert somehow, a way she had never seen. He was hovering protectively around the other girl, so she assumed it was only worry for the girl. Two other were with them, a girl with long dark hair, who had a camera on had and was filming the brunette, she seemed nice and innocent so she doubted that she had magic. The other boy had bluish hair and had glasses, he didn't look Japanese so she assumed he was a foreigner. This boy, however, appeared more older than the others. Even though he clearly wasn't older than herself, the look in his eyes made him look like an adult with wisdom and experience. He was staring right at her, with a look that made her think he knew who she was.
"Is everything okay miss…?" the girl spoke, breaking Serena out of her thoughts.
"Serena, my name is Tsukino Serena, no, everything's fine, I was just…thinking, that's it so don't worry…" she responded with a slight smile.
"Oh I'm sorry, I'm Kinomoto Sakura" she cheerfully replied. 'She kind of reminds me of Chibusa' Serena thought, a warm smile forming on her lips. "This is Li Syaoran" she said signaling towards the boy next to her, "Daidouji Tomoyo and Hiiragizawa Eriol" she finish pointing to the girl and boy respectively.
"Nice to meet you all" she said, her gaze drifting to the side where she noticed Luna staring intensively at the group. She then remember why she was running in the first place. Checking her watch she groaned at loud.
"Rei is gonna kill me for sure this time" she grumbled starting to walk away, "I'm sorry Sakura-chan, I have to go before I'm too late" she said.
"Don't worry worry, Serena-san. We have to go too" Sakura assured her.
"Please call me Serena"
"I-I c-can't, I-I just met you-u"
"Then at least call me Serena-chan, I mean after all we are friends"
"Friends?" the whole group said in unison.
"Is there a problem with that?" Serena asked, feeling like she had hurt their feelings somehow.
"No, there's nothing wrong, we actually like that we made a new friend" the girl named Tomoyo told her.
"Ok, then I really have to g-" she stopped midsentence, while she was talking she was walking backwards and ended up stumbling on something. "What the..? Luna! What are you doing here? Bad cat, the little brat forgot to close the gate again didn't he?" she faked surprisement, while eyeing the cat mischievously. But before explanations could be done a screamed Serena and Luna knew too well broke through the air.
"SERENA!"
"Oh no" Serena mumble to herself, she hadn't realized she had been mere steps from Rei's shrine, "Here we go again" she said more loudly. The group in front of her just stared at her questioningly, but she did not explain herself, knowing she wasn't gonna be allowed anyway. Rei was coming down the shrine steps, looking furiously in the direction where Serena stood.
"You are late AGAIN!" Rei yelled at her.
"Rei, it wasn't my fault, my alarm clock wasn't working and then I stumble upo-" but she never got a chance to finish because Rei had already started with the list of reproaches.
"No, Serena, don't even start with your oh so called excuses, cause I'm sick of them! You are never on time, no matter what! You know we have important things to discuss! But you are never there for them! You need to mature, gosh we are on our third year of high school and you still act irresponsibly! If you are going to be th-" Serena knew where this was going so she immediately cut Rei off.
"Why do you always have to pick on me? What about Mina? She's late too? Why am I the only one who gets yelled at?" she had her back to the group of teens now, and was giving eye signals at Rei who apparently wasn't understanding.
"Stop playing around! You are going to be the fu-" she abruptly stopped finally realizing what Serena was doing, behind Serena stood four teens intensively hearing the whole conversation, she wanted to hit herself for not noticing earlier.
"Oh, I..eh…I'm sorry, I..eh..didn't notice you there…" she trailed off with a shaky laugh.
There was an awkward moment of silent, until a red car pulled up the street, stopping in front of Serena and Rei. In that moment of silence Rei's skills kicked in, and she noticed that the group standing in front of her now were not normal humans they had some sort of magic within them, or at least three of them. A tall man with black hair and deep blue eyes stepped out of the car.
"Darien!" Serena rejoiced, running towards the man. The man received her with open arms, and the two were caught in a deep embrace, both seemingly happy to be together. Rei started to prepare to defend her Prince and Princess, she stared to wander protectively around them.
"I see you two are at it again" he said, followed by a chuckle. Eying the expression Rei had on her face, she was still annoyed.
"But this time it wasn't my fault" she said again, a frown forming on her features.
"Don't worry, love, I understand. Besides I'm late too, so…" he trailed off taking sight that they were not alone.
"Oh, I'm sorry" Serena said, "Let me do the introductions, Darien, this are Sakura, Tomoyo, Syaoran, and Eriol" she said signaling at each respectively, "Guys he is Shields Darien, my..ah..boyfriend" she lamely finished.
"Nice to meet you, Darien-san, but we really have to get going…" Sakura trailed off.
"It's okay, we have to get going to before the others get to impatient," he then took Serena's hand, and after saying goodbyes started walking up the steps.
Eriol just stood, staring at their backs. He could feel great magic coming off all four of them, cat included, and what was worse he could feel others in the shrine with powerful magic as well.
Neither Serena, Darien, Rei, or Luna, for that matter, miss the gaze that was focused at them, but they decided to ignore it, and rather talk to the others about it.
OOOOOOOO
Sakura and the rest of the group were heading towards Yukito's place, Sakura had had a strange dream last night, and had decided to have a meeting to discuss its matter, however, they had not expected to find magic on their path. The girl they had encounter moments ago had an amazing amount of magic radiating from her, and not only her, but her companions as well.
"Don't you think it was strange?" Sakura eventually asked.
"What's strange?" Tomoyo asked.
"The way the priestess seemed to react about Serena" she half mumbled. "She seemed to put many responsibilities on her, like she was expecting great things from her, like a parent child relation"
"Maybe it has to do with the fact that she has powerful magic at her hands" Syaoran replied, "I know you didn't miss that fact, cause I saw your reaction when you took her hand. I also know that you know too, Eriol"
"Nothing escapes by you, my little descendant" Eriol replied with a smirk.
"So you guys noticed too?" Sakura questioned incredulously.
"Sakura, even though I don't have magic, I felt warm and protected when I saw her" Tomoyo said.
"The fact that even Tomoyo was able to feel her power, means that she holds power greater than what we have ever seen" Eriol stated.
"Not only her, but the other two too" Sakura added, "But the sensation was different"
"The question is whether they are the enemy or the allies" Syaoran spoke.
"I don't think she is the enemy, I mean the sensation I felt when she was around was that of protection and warmth, like Tomoyo said, not hatred and malice" Sakura countered.
"That might be her, but what about the others?" Syaoran persisted. When there was no response he went on. "The other girl had an aura of fire and war, both of which are pretty destructive"
"That can mean anything, besides I have Firey, and it is not a destructive card" she argued. In that moment, they reached Yukito's house.
"We'll discuss this after we talk about the dream you had" Eriol said, a slight frown forming on his features. Sakura had not told anyone about the dream, she had only said that it was a matter of life or death, which of course put everyone on the edge.
oOoOoOoOo
(This part is kinda gonna be a mix of scenes, shifting from the CardCaptors to the Senshi, so whenever that oOoO thing appears it means I'm gonna switch back and forth, when the oOoO appears again it means the shifting is over)
**Senshi**:
"So, what's the meeting about this time?" Serena asked as soon as she stepped into Rei's room.
"On top of being late, you don't know what we're here for! Typical…" Rei said shaking her head in disappointment.
"Serena, we are discussing about the fact that Michiru's mirror and Rei's meditation and prayers, have alert us of a new danger approaching" Setsuna explain.
"We need to be alert, since we don't have much information about the enemy" Ami said, while typing data into her Mercury computer.
"What's this new threat about?" asked Darien.
"It came out of nowhere, I was just polishing the mirror when it showed me…"
**Both**:
"A dark shadow of some sort, was slowly making its away over the world. From Tokyo Tower, the darkness emerges. Everything that comes in contact loses light and becomes swallowed by the shadows" Michiru and Sakura explained.
**Senshi**:
"But, how…? We swore to protect the world! There surely has to be a mistake!" Lita exclaimed, refusing to believe what her ears were hearing.
**CardCaptors**:
"A new threat is approaching, fast" Yukito stated.
"We have to do something about it" Syaoran agreed.
"Sakura, was there anything else?" Eriol persisted.
"Well…"
**Both**:
"When I saw the vision none of our familiar presences were there, we seemed to be absent from the fight, only three presences were present" Both Michiru and Sakura said.
**Senshi**:
"I, too, felt three powerful presences. However, I recognized two presences. One of our princess and the other one of the girl you met today, Serena" Rei said matter-of-factly.
"Wait! What? What girl? What are you guys talking about?" Mina impatiently asked.
"Well, when I was in my way here I stumbled upon a bunch of kids. I knocked two of them to the floor, and when I offered my hand to help the girl up, the instant our hands met I felt strong magic emanating from her. I tried to help the other kid too, to see if he also had magic, but he refused to take my hand." Serena paused taking in all the faces around the room. Ami had stopped typing and was now speculating the possibilities, Michiru had taken her mirror out looking for answers in it, Haruka had a deep frown on her brow, Mina and Lita were both staring wide-eyed at me, as if not believing what they heard, the only two that remained calmed were Hotaru and Setsuna, who instead had understanding on their faces.
"Then I examined each one of them, three of them had magic, but…" she trailed off.
"But what?" asked Artemis, who had remained quiet until now.
"But I…" she wasn't sure of what to say.
"But you…?"
"I think I…"
"Just speak already!" Rei snapped at her
"Okay, okay! Jeez!" she stopped to take a breath and then continued, "I felt another presence with them, not human or demonic, but with magic. I think it was a creature created from magic, and also I thought I felt another powerful, but fain presence in the vicinity, but it quickly disappeared" she finished.
"They're others?" Haruka asked bemused.
"It appears so" Ami murmured.
**CardCaptors**:
"One presence was my own, but one of the others…" Sakura trailed off unsure of what to say.
"One of the others, what?" Syaoran asked.
"It was of the girl we meet today" Eriol responded, in a knowing tone.
"How did you know?" Sakura asked, at the same time Syaoran said, "What the hell?" and Yukito, "How can this be?"
"Everybody calm down, I'm sure Eriol will explain" Tomoyo said in a peace-making tone.
"I, too, had a premonition" he calmly responded.
"You had the same vision as me?" she asked incredulously.
"No, dear Sakura, I had a premonition of her"
"Of her? Why would you have a premonition of Serena?"
"Well, Sakura, you see that girl, and many others, have extraordinary magic abilities. But she has the most power at hand, she can even be more powerful than you and me when she unleashes her full power." he told them. Everyone in the room had gone quiet, some were speculating at this new information, others were just to stunned to even think, trying to take in what they had just heard.
"But Clow, there was never someone more powerful than you or Sakura" Kero said, clearly not liking knowing that someone out there could harm his mistress.
"You are mistaken, she has always had more power than I, the difference is that she almost never uses her full power to the extent. Nevertheless, she is very powerful without it, like me or Sakura, but in the past she didn't need to use it." he continued.
**Both**:
"But the question still remains, are they the foes or allies?" Yukito and Ami said together.
"And also, who is the other presence of?" Kero and Darien said in unison.
"There's something else, though." Michiru and Sakura spoke. "At first it appeared that the shadow was being defeated, but then presences were filled with sorrow and were weakened…" Everyone and everything remained quiet at that. Taking a deep breath they finished by saying, "The darkness then, overcame the efforts, and the girls fell, losing all light and hope with them"
OoOoOoOoOoOoOo
Elsewhere, was a girl wearing a green uniform, carrying a large yellow backpack, walking towards a well in the forest. She was walking cautiously as possible, as if to sneak without being noticed. But her efforts were in vain, for a hanyou wearing red robes was now approaching at a fast speed.
"You are not going anywhere Kagome!" he screamed.
Seeing that her escape was now in jeopardy, she started running as fast as she could to the well, but he beat her there.
"Didn't you hear me? I said you weren't going! We still have lost of things to do!" he argued.
"Inuyasha, I have to go, I have test to take, and besides those stuff can wait my tests can't!" she countered.
"I said yo-"
"SIT!"
Splat, Inuyasha hit the ground dead on, which was Kagome's opportunity to flee.
"I'll come back in a week I promise!" she said as she jumped off into the well.
"Ah! I see Kagome has left" came a voice from behind him.
"Shut it Miroku!" he said aloud, and then murmured "Kagome…" he hated when Kagome went back without him, she always came back with a boy smell. Something Inuyasha got very angered at, after all they were married already. But she wouldn't stay with him permanently until she got out of the school thingy. She had told him that it was this boy who wouldn't understand the meaning of the word no, he had almost shot forwards, towards the well to give this boy some piece of his mind, but Kagome had sit him telling him she would just simply ignore him until he left her alone, which he had been against but could not do anything that would upset her. So he now sat in front of the well longing for her to come back. After a couple of hours, though, he had grown tired if waiting and decided to follow after her.
On the other side of the well, Kagome was relaxing on the tub. After this she had decided to go to the library, to study more for tomorrow's test. She had consider dropping out of school because she was barely in it, and besides, she had decided that she would stay and live with Inuyasha and the others. Since her family was okay with this, only asking for her to visit, there was really no objection in the matter. Anyway, school was almost over, just one more month, but instead of waiting she decided to make tomorrow her last day.
Inuyasha was jumping out of the well, he could smell Kagome's scent, but it lead to a room with a very small window, which he could see that he couldn't fit into. So he instead went to her bedroom to wait for her.
Kagome was getting out of the tub, and wrapping a towel around her body, when she felt a demon presence.
'Huh! So he decided to follow' she thought to herself, looking down at herself she knew she could walk like that into her bedroom with him in it, but she didn't have clean clothes with her, so she walked towards her bedroom and open the door a bit she said "Osuwari!"
Splat, Inuyasha immediately kissed the floor, Kagome went to her drawers to pull out a light green knee length skirt, and took out a spaghetti strap white blouse to go with it. She then slipped back to the bathroom to change, and do her hair.
"About time" Inuyasha mumble when Kagome walked into the room.
"Well nobody said you had to wait for me" she replied, a slight tone of annoyance in her voice.
"You know I can't leave" he told her, embarrassment clearly showing on his face. Even though they have been together for more than a year now, he still got a bit embarrassed when he got all sweet and lovely with her.
She sighed, "I know, well I'm going out so stay home and don't leave till I come back," she said.
"Hell! I can't stay here! I going with you!"
"Inuyasha, pl-"
"No wench! I coming with you!"
"Inuyasha SIT!" she said and went to grab her bag, and then rushing out the door. But he was getting up, so he jumped out her window at landed in front of her outside.
"Listen bi-"
"OSUWARI OSUWARI OSUWARI OSUWARI OSUWARI OSUWARI OSUWARI!" Kagome said as she ran off.
SPLAT! Inuyasha felt to the ground, hard enough that it took him a couple of minutes to move again. 'Kagome you little…'
Kagome didn't know how long she ran, but she didn't stop until she was in front of the Public Library of Tokyo. 'Finally…I just hope he doesn't follow me here'
OOOOOOOOOO
"Ami, what are we going to do on the library?" Serena whined, dreading to go to the library, one of her most hated places.
"We are going to see if we can make some research on the new matter at hand. You know sometimes, books are better sources than computers" Ami said.
"Besides we have to study for our upcoming tests, and you, Serena, have to study much more than us" Mina reminded her.
"You shouldn't talk, Mina! You're in the same position as me!" Serena countered, getting a bit offended.
"But I'm not going to be the future Queen!"
"But you'll the head of my, meaning the queen's, guard!" she threw back at her.
That shut Mina up, and a triumphant grin appeared on Serena's features. Ami was just sighing and rolling her eyes at both of them. By this point they were entering the library, it was there that all three of them gasped. There were people in there with magic powers, more than one.
"Guys, do you feel it?" Serena asked.
Both nodded, and then tensed, trying to figure out where the auras were coming from.
"Do you think it is an enemy?" Mina questioned.
"No" Serena answered.
"How come you sound so sure?" Ami asked.
"Because I know who some of the presences belong to"
OOOOOOOOOOO
"Tomoyo, remind me why are we going to Tokyo library instead of our library?" Sakura asked.
"Because, our library has oh so little information in what I need, and Tokyo library has what I need and so much more" Tomoyo casually answered.
"What is it that you need Daidouji?" Syaoran asked.
"Well, I need new inspirations to make you and Sakura new costumes, since apparently we are in danger again, and you are going to be using your magic more and I can't miss an opportunity to record Sakura in action!" she said start glowing on her eyes. Everyone just sweatdropped and laugh nervously, all except Kero, who was all exited over the idea of getting to see his face on videos again.
"Kero calm down!" Sakura said, as they were now entering the library therefore they had to be quiet. Sakura stopped dead on her feet, upon receiving the feeling of the presence she had break her head over, it was the presence of the third being on her vision.
"She's here" she simply said, everyone turned to stared at her in confusion, but she was soon walking towards the direction of the girl.
OOOOOOOOOOO
'It's so quiet here, so relaxing without Inuyasha here to tell me to go back with him' Kagome thought as she looked through the shelves for a geometry book. She froze when she felt magical presences enter the library, from both entrances and they were all approaching her direction.
'Where's Inuyasha when you need him?' she thought to herself, she turned to a hall which lead to a empty room, in which she usually went to study. She knew they were coming towards her, so she assumed she would have to confront them. She wished she had her bow and arrows with her, since she didn't know what was coming. She braced herself for the worst, readying to fight whatever was coming.
OOOOOOOOO
Serena was running like crazy through the library, following the unknown presence, she also felt the other presences running on the same direction, so she pushed herself faster. Lita and Ami were behind her, not leaving her side. As she rounded a corner a door was there, she pushed herself through the door, at the same time a door across from the room opened and in stepped the magical group of teens.
"You!"
