Sorry for the wait and all that jazz, but you know how it goes. Getting around to typing, getting the chance to type, but enough excuses.
Three moons of Alicidale
Sakura walked out into the snow looking at the sky. Above her she could see the snow card coming. It stopped before reaching Sakura and threw a blizzard at her. Yue quickly grabbed Sakura and enfolded her in his wings, completely protecting her.
Li ran out near them and Meiling and The Fight card surrounded him. Li got into a fighting stance as the two girls charged. He had a hard time blocking bock girls, trying to attack Fight, but not hurt Meiling.
The blizzard stopped and Yue unfolded his wings and flew into the air, throwing crystals at the snow card. She was quick to blow up her strongest blizzard, freezing the crystals and blowing them back. Yue flexed his wings and returned the attack but the snow card merely dodged.
Sakura stared at all her friends fighting. She couldn't think of anything to do. She only had five cards and she wasn't sure if they could do anything or would even listen to her! Impulsively, she ran over t o Li to help.
Meiling quickly broke off towards Sakura and began to throw kicks and punches. Sakura tried to duck and dodge and block using her wand.
"Sakura!" Li called out, still matching blows with the Fight card.
"Don't worry, Sharon. I'm alright." She yelled to comfort him. "Meiling, you have to snap out of it. I'm your friend, remember?" Sakura tripped on a small mountain of snow and fell back. She rolled out of the way of another of Meiling's punches. She knew she was no match for Meiling in a fight, but what could she do?
"Yue." Sakura called. He turned slightly from his battle with the snow card. "I have an idea. Get the snow card to aim a blizzard this way."
"Are you sure?" He asked.
"I'm sure."
Li was having a hard time focusing. He wanted to run and protect Sakura from Meiling but the Fight card was holding him up. He couldn't get ahead. He noticed Sakura finally standing in one spot, no longer backing away from Meiling. What is she thinking? She's no match fro Meiling. He thought.
Yue made sure he was in line with Sakura and before the next blizzard could hit, he moved out the way.
"Sakura!" Li called out when he saw the blizzard heading her way. "Look out!"
Sakura waited until the very last moment before she narrowly dove out of the way. Meiling didn't have time to even notice the blizzard before she was absolutely covered under a pile snow.
Sakura yelled to Yue. "Now Yue, hit her from there."
Yue threw his crystals at the snow card from his position behind her. She was hit hard and thrown to the ground.
Sakura ran over to the snow card and raised her wand. "Mysteriously created cards, hide your power and create your form in my hand." She brought her wand down and the snow card became an Alicidale card. She sighed. She had hoped for another Sakura card. She looked up and saw Yue attacking the fight card. She ran over to it and repeated her chant. She was surprised to find the Fight card was still a Sakura card.
"Yue!" She called happily, holding up the card."
"I know." Yue said. "The Fight card is of the white moon."
"What!" Sakura said.(sweat dropping) "Why did she fight us?"
"Simply because she is the fight card."
"Are you alright, Sakura?" Li asked.
"Huh? Oh, I'm fine. You're the one I'm worried about. Are you injured?"
"No, I'm fine."
"That's good." Sakura said, smiling at him.
"Look. The snow." Yue commented. The three of them looked at the rapidly disappearing snow. They saw the castle as it was when they first entered, with staircases and hallways abound. Now, which one led to where they wanted to go?
"Meiling!" Sakura remembered, looking around. "Where did she go?"
"The mirror card probably took her." Li said.
"...Image Ala.." Yue said to himself.
Tomoyo appeared holding a candle to light her way. Same blank expressionless eyes. "Allow me to lead your way. All paths begin and end where Image Ala says. This is the desired area. Proceed without me and you will be standing still."
"Where will you lead us?" Li asked skeptically.
"Where do you wish to go? To someone that you love? Someone you know?"
"Where is my brother?" Sakura asked.
"Mister Toya is with Image Ala. When you reach her, you will reach him." The look on Tomoyo's face was breaking Sakura's heart. She couldn't stand to see her friend so deprived of emotion and warmth. Her heart was growing heavy and she could feel the tears in her eyes.
Li moticed Sakura on the brink of tears and was about to reach out to her. "Sakura..."
"Why don't you ask to find one of your friends?" Yue suggested.(moment stolen.)
Sakura looked at Yue, tearing fading from all but the corners of her eyes. "You're right." she said, wiping her eyes. "I have to find Meiling."
"I will lead you to the person you seek." Tomoyo turned. "Follow me."
The group was lead to a staircase on the far right. They sightly braced themselves for what would come.
Yay! I got it up! So, I'm asking what you all think of my action scenes. I think that they're pretty good, but what about you? In the near updating future there will be Rika and sword and Shadow, plus Terada and arrow. Thank you to the ones who suggested it. Next time will be more Meiling and we get a peak at what the mirror card is up to.
I'm sorry for all of Li's stolen moments. Yue isn't even doing it on purpose. That makes it worse! They will get a few moments coming up though. Li and Sakura.
As always, I need your suggestions. I have chapters 7 and 8 written but they might not be up for a while. What do you think should happen? And if you have any questions, ask them. Anything to get more reveiws. Plus, I'll know what to explain more.
Hope you enjoyed.
