zachycards: Hello fellow reader and/or author, and welcome to the next chapter and the next installment of my fanfic "Going In Almost Completely Blind". Here is the disclaimer, I do not own the anime CardCaptors, in any sort of possible or conceivable way, in any sort of possible or conceivable shape, or in any sort of possible or conceivable form. I also do not own any of the other anime associated with it, in any sort of possible and conceivable way, in any sort of possible and conceivable shape, or in any sort of possible and conceivable form. I do not own anything in this story, in any sort of possible and conceivable way, in any sort of possible and conceivable shape, or in any sort of possible and conceivable form, except me, myself, and I. I am not making money off of this, in any sort of possible and conceivable way, in any sort of possible and conceivable shape, or in any sort of possible and conceivable form. I also do not own the rights to the anime CardCaptors, in any sort of possible and conceivable way, in any sort of possible and conceivable shape, or in any sort of possible and conceivable form. Or any of the other anime associated with it, in any sort of possible and conceivable way, in any sort of possible and conceivable shape, or in any sort of possible and conceivable form. The anime CardCaptors does belong to, and it will always belong to Clamp, in every sort of possible and conceivable way, in every sort of possible and conceivable shape, and in every sort of possible and conceivable form. So, now that the disclaimer is out of the way, let us now move on to the 66th chapter. But, however, before I do, let me just go and reiterate once again to all the readers who are reading this fanfic. That, I am typing out all of the chapters in all of my in progress fanfics. That are a tad bit below, or are indeed very much below at least one thousand overall words in the chapter length. The reason that I am doing this is largely due to the fact, and largely because I was very unhappy with how those chapters looked. It was because I felt that I did not put in enough effort with regards to writing each of them. I am also going to do my absolute and complete diligence to try and write every single episode of these anime into an actual chapter of at least one thousand words in length. The only chapters that I am going to try and skip, are chapters that I do not feel are at all or very practical for me to try and, or even attempt to write in the first place. And one more thing, please look and hear me out for a moment. I know and I also understand, that you may or may not have a busy schedule outside of reading fanfics, but for once, can you at least take some time out of your life to at least leave a review on any one of my fanfics? I will happily take your criticism. I do not bite, at least, the last time that I had checked, I am very much sure that I do not. And any sort of correction you would like me to make, and I will do my absolute best to make it happen, within some sort of reason of course. But anyways, now that I am done rambling on, I think it is now time to move on to the 66th chapter. I just really hope that all of you that are reading this, along with all of my other fanfics, can all appreciate the time I have put into this. I am doing all that I can to make sure that all of these chapters have a good amount of effort put into each of them. But because of my current busy schedule, I am now finding it more and more difficult to get these chapters all done in an effective and timely manner. But I digress, I thin it is now finally time after all of this rambling to finally move on with the 66th chapter.
Chapter 66: Slippery Slope
This really was quickly becoming a complete disaster. Not only were Sakura, myself and Eli stuck on top of a ski slope on the top of the mountain, but once we had gotten to the top, a blizzard decided to form. The wind had picked up, nearly knocking both Sakura and I off our feet. Luckily Eli grabbed hold of both of us and we were able to steady ourselves. "I'm sure glad you came up with us after all, thanks a lot" Sakura said to Eli. And yet, I was still suspicious of Eli since I still didn't have any information on his character. But, if Sakura trusted him, so did I. So I thanked him as well and smiled, though still, I was still a tad bit suspicious of him, and I'm still very much sure that Li was too. It was at that point that the wind decided to pick up even more. And it was also at this point that all three of us started to hear a far away rumbling. I instantly knew what that meant, it was very much in fact an avalanche, and it sounded like it was headed straight for us, and if Sakura and I didn't do something now, it would not only bury all three of us, but it would also travel further down hill and end up destroying the chalet that everyone else was in. Sakura and I knew that if we used our magic at this moment that Eli would see us, and that would wind up boding very badly for us.
I had initially thought that using the Sleep card was the best choice. But seeing as how the wind was howling as it currently was and with the current amount of snow present on the ground, neither of us would be able to carry Eli down the hill by ourselves, and if he was asleep, then he might get wind up getting hit by the avalanche. And if we split up, he would worry about us and try to find us. But we knew that given the circumstances, both Sakura and I had no other available choice, but to take off running back down the hill in the direction of the ski lift. We both knew that there was only one card that could be of use right now in this situation. And with that thought in mind, we both took out our respective keys, "key of the stars, with powers burning bright, reveal the staff, and shine your light, Release!" we chanted in unison. With both of our respective staffs now in hand, I pulled out the Time card, turned to Sakura, to which we both gave a nod to each other. I then threw the time card into the air, and as it spun, we both spun our respective staffs. "We call upon the power of our stars, ancient forces near and far, Time card discard your former might, and draw your power from our light, star card!" we chanted in unison as we raised our respective staffs.
And once the Time card stopped spinning, and displayed the new symbol on the back and the new colors on the front and back like the other transformed star cards, the avalanche was hit by the Time card's power and was stopped in its tracks. However, once everything around us had been frozen by the Time card's power, it was becoming quickly apparent that doing something like this was quickly taking a lot of magic power from both Sakura and I. This was being further compounded as Sakura slowly pulled out the Fire card, and very sluggishly threw it up into the air. I wasn't fairing any better then her at this point. And as we both attempted to raise our respective staffs in an attempt to use the Fire card, we both started to waiver, and then we both fell over, having now exhausted our magical power. And it was as we both fell that the Time card's power that was holding back the avalanche was starting to fade away, causing it to slowly pick up speed again. However, as Sakura and I hit the ground, and fell unconscious, we were not able to see a familiar young man use a sun shaped staff to repel the avalanche, to which he then went over to where Sakura and I lay on the ground unconscious, only to look over us with a slight smirk on his face.
