The fight
During the day the Cardcaptors' minds kept wandering to what was going to happen. "Class dismissed" the teacher said as the bell rang. "Guys do you think the Mandarin will attack tonight?" Syaoran asked "Hope not, Tomoyo's not ready, and the three of us don't know what to expect" Eriol said concern evident in his voice "The guardians will be by our side and with each other no one will defeat the Cardcaptors, Guardian of the Clow!" Meiling shout with triumph in her voice "I agree, however we have to plan our attack" Sakura said earning a groan from Meiling.
Tony was preparing his suit should the Mandarin come tonight "I have a bad feeling JARVIS" Tony said glancing outside to see the setting sun spread it red colour around the sky. "Red sky at Night Shepard's delight, Red sky at morning Sailors warning, It's going to be nice tomorrow" Tony said referring to an old saying about the weather. "Perhaps you can go to the park and have a nice walk" JARVIS said "Yeah that would be nice" Tony said.
On the tower that was home to the final judgement stood the Mandarin in his battle armour "Now Captors come to me so I can finally calm my revenge!" he said before malevolently laughing, sending it over the area, the laugh was so sinister that it made people freeze from fear. Touya stood looking at the tower from the window in the front room "Squirt?" Touya said "Don't try and stop me!" Sakura said opening the door; "Sometimes, I wonder if I'm needed anymore" Touya admitted "And did is your conclusion?" Sakura asked not facing the door as Eriol, Tomoyo, Yukito, Syaoran, Meiling, Naruku, Kero and Kai joined her "I can't always protect you but I can make sure your safe, Gaki, protect her" Touya said "with my life if I have to!" Syaoran said. "We'll be back sometime around 11 if we're lucky" Sakura said before Touya embraced her "make sure you do Sakura, I don't want to lose you like mum" Touya said as tears started to sting his eyes "All of us will make it back and if not then I wanted you to know you're the best Brother I ever had" Sakura said hugging her brother back for what could be the last time. "Xiao, it's time" Kai said as the group had tears brimming in their eyes. "Now get out there and make sure that he never wished he set eyes on the Kinomoto clan!" Touya cheered.
At the Tower everyone was ready, Eriol, Meiling and Syaoran were wearing their tradional battle robes, Sakura wore an updated version of her final judgement battle costume, Tomoyo was wearing a ninja inspired outfit, "let's do this" Sakura said "Hoi! Wait for me!" it was Kenji wearing his robes was a red karate gi with a cape and flame decal on it "I'm joining in too, Naoko wanted me to protect her friends" Kenji said beaming "We'll then shall we?" Eriol asked as they entered the elevator up to the platform.
Once they reached the top Yukito and Kero's wing came out and wrapped them like a cocoon releasing Yue and Keroberos, the same happened with Suppi and Naruku becoming Ruby Moon and Spinel Sun while Kai was surrounded by a bright white light transforming him into a wolf version of Keroberos "Kai Lang nice of you to join us" Keroberos said "no problem my old friend" Kai Lang said "now the battle begins!" Sakura said as they reached the Mandarin "Young people out on a school night, I guess your parents forgot the curfew was set for an hour ago!" Mandarin mocked "enough talk let's fight" Ruby said flinging crystal shards at Mandarin fired a beam of energy from his Impact Beam ring sending Naruku crashing into the steel framework before she hit the floor "RUBY!" Eriol shouted "Oh key of my star, with powers burning bright, reveal the staff and shine your light RELEASE!" Sakura said activating her staff. Syaoran and Kenji drew they weapons "Now Sword card, help me defend my friends Sword card" Sakura said as she called forth her sword card "Impressive you three have swords, while I have ten rings of power amplified by my gauntlets so I can hardly see how I can...Lose!" Mandarin gloated. "I have a bad feeling about this, guys" Kenji said. Mandarin lifted his right hand and covered the tower and himself with a mass of darkness "Tell me little children, are you afraid of the dark, if so then good, if not then you shall know why you first feared the darkness" the Mandarin informed them.
"Sir, the cardcaptors have entered battle against Manadrin" JARVIS informed Tony "How long ago?" Tony asked panic setting in "I don't know all I know is the Mandarin has them trapped in darkness" JARVIS said. "Prepare my suit NOW!" Tony said rushing to the armoury.
The cardcaptors were surrounded by darkness "Light card illuminate the darkness Light card!" Sakura ordered of her card as her staff glowed brightly chasing the darkness away "Too bad your little spell will not save you this time Sakura Kinomoto, just like it did not save those before you" Mandarin gloated. "Then I shall do what must be done!" Sakura growled fury deep in her voice "Nice words, too bad I don't have my camera on hand" Tomoyo said "Now shall we, Fiery transform into a phoenix and attack the mandarin FIERY" Sakura said as the fiery card ignited into a beautiful phoenix "pathetic" Mandarin said launching a beam of ice at the firebird "What, he's freezing fire?" Meiling asked as the Fiery turned into card form "Guys I have no choice, Kero" Sakura said looking at her guardian "I understand" Keroberos said "Sakura book, I Sakura you mistress command you to flee!" Sakura said as the book of Sakura turned into a bright pink light and took off.
Iron man was on his way to the tower when he saw a bright light coming towards him "JARVIS analyse is it magic or tech?" he asked "sir it appears to be magic" JARVIS quickly analysed the light "then the last gambit has began" Iron man said reaching out for the light as it turned into the Sakura Book.
"Ancient Star, combine my armour with your light Contract Initiate!" Iron man said. The latch on the book opened and the cards started to fly out and surrounded Iron man and each card fired out a light towards him and then quickly flew back into leaving Iron man with a glowing blue aura almost like electricity, "Armour card infusion NOW!" Iron man said as the light died down and his armour started to morph the upper arm and leg armour became fully golden and stars appeared on the greaves and bracers of his armour and two massive white bird wings came forth from his back. "This is so cool" Iron man said as his HUD finished formatting itself, it still had the widget on the lower right but now on the left he had a rectangle which would show which cards he was using "let's go!" Iron man said taking flight.
Back at the tower Mandarin had knocked out everyone except Sakura "now little you have met your doom for I AM YOUR DOOM!" Mandarin snarled as he saw a blur of red, gold and white "and I AM IRON MAN" Iron man declared.
