Authors note: well I got some people reading which is a start and a review from a old reader who has gone through some development so its a start and I hope more will review and read and enjoy and give me a honest opinion if I am doing a good cardcaptor story.
Anyway next chapter with Oc cards I made myself.
Chapter 6: The Guiding LANTURN
Inside the throngs of a dream Alice was walking through a mysterious city of neon lights and a large heart shaped moon in the dark sky giving off a beacon of light as it rains through a lonely and sad looking city as Alice wasnt human and she looked like a owl demon (AN: Think her structure similar to Octavia but age 8 with green eyes) dressed in Sakuras episode 43 Battle costume but the pink was replaced with white and the under yellow was blue almost silver as around her was various types of Poes from the Loz game time lines as she watched the various Poes Floating around the soft glow from there lanterns among the rain in the city as what sounds like singing was echoing as she walked down the streets hearing it.
Come view the scene betwixt and between
Hear our empty melody
Alice walked to the center area seeing the many Poe types flying around in the silence of the night as there was echoing song around her.
Come to despair (Within twilights view)
Ascend cooked stairs (Memories call to you)
And see we were never there (You've nothing to fear)
(There's nobodies here)
Alice wonders what it means as coming forth from her card pouch was the Glow card who felt attracted to something as Alice followed the little fairy.
Naught will remain (Within twilights view)
Sorrow and rain (Memories call to you)
Fragments crossing pain (You've nothing to fear)
(There's nobodies here)
'Glow where are you going? Why are there so many Poes? Why are they all here in this empty city' thought Alice as she held her hands out to grab the little Fairy as it zoomed over the moon peeking through the moon bathing the land in a glow of the moon.
Havoics divides and proves we're alive at this impasse of dark and light (Within twilights view)
Nothing shall gather to naught we bow (Memories call to you)
Contored memories are bound (You've nothing to fear)
(There's nobodies here)
(Within twilights view)
It lowers down as Alice was now in a mysterious chamber of thrones thirteen as she saw a Poe of the arbretor grounds as the Glow card was near it as it held a small hand out as if wanting to touch the poe as Alice wanted to know why.
Ruin and create (Memories call to you)
Behold the worlds fate
We cannot feel your love and hate (You've nothing to fear)
(There's nobodies here)
Naught will remain Sorrow and rain
We only feel the pain
Come view the scene betwixt and between hear our empty melody
Before Alice could ask why reality came as she woke up human again as she looked around wondering why she woke up but saw the faint glow of the glow card as she quickly got out of bed her pink clear card ark pjs swaying in the wind a bit as she held a hand out as the glow card looked at her "What is wrong little one?" Asked Alice as the Glow card seem to want to go somewhere as the Glow card looked down apologizing that she nearly put Alice secret at risk "Glow its ok but if there is something wrong please tell me or give me a sign that something has happened" said Alice as Glow shared eye contact with Alice "Something…is calling me" she said in the softest of whispers as that confused Alice.
Meanwhile in town in the foggy streets as people walked to and from a date in the tavern around town as there was peace but in the fog and in the woods there seem to be a light glowing and a sound of clacking bells as several people are hearing the sound of bells…and then a voice that sings a strange female melody (AN: think the ballad of the goddess) which the combined with the light in the fog cause several people specifically children to follow and as they entered the mist…they were gone with no explanation.
Well such a thing dosent stay quiet for long as the heros were told about the disapearances and were asked to look for the missing people as Alice gets a feeling that it was something else then just the disappearances as she was in the church talking to Rhyus dressed in a spring casual outfit from Card captor Sakura clear ark about the idea of spirits in the world "Spirits can exist but alot usually become monsters that warriors and heros need to slay because overtime they will get dangerous due to holding grudges or worst" he said as Alice hummed "You heard what happened to those kids and some of the adults they vanished in a mist fog did my sister and the others go to try to find the source?" Asked Alice "They did as one of the children who went missing was the daughter of a governor who was visiting and he is a real big deal" said Rhyus as Orchi peeked out "Did they try to ask for clues?" Asked Orchi "I have no clue because I want there only rumors that a mist came and there is mysterious singing voice blurred them all away into the fog" said Rhyus as Alice got worried but it was broken as from the glow the glow card appeared but seeing her Alice yelped and grabbed her before she flew off "Is something wrong?" Asked Rhyus "Nothing but Glow feels a weird call that someone was calling her to who knows where…and I wonder if It is connected to my dream about Poes" said Alice confusing Rheus as he got some scrolls for the later sermon "What are poes?" He asked "According to Alice Poes are specter like creatures that carry lanterns to cast magic and are capable to become invisible, Alice had a weird dream about them and now thinks one appeared" said Orochi "I dont think so…but maybe a spirit that is lurring people away…like a siren or something else" said Alice muttering and pondering.
Meanwhile with the heros they did ask for clues as they came to the area where the most disapearances are happening "This better be not like that creepy boy who tells horrid fortunes in that Junji ido tale Alice read and got me to read" said Sumari using her magic to trace around them "What do you mean? Didnt you read the book? How can a 8 year old read such material" said Aussi looking around "Trust me Alice is a book a holic and is always having a nose in her book and what is creepy is how in detail she can report the book in a accurate very discriptive way" she said shivering "And her art at times…honestly" she said "So she is like Ryo a pest in being smarter then you?" Asked Aussi following Kathy as she extended her senses to find any trace "No she keeps to her self, which means she is just saving energy to be a brat later on her so called good days, seriously good days? No 8 year old has random seizers unless they have real brain damage or worst" started Summari as Samuel looked around "Fuss later we need to stay focused that official wants us to find his daughter and stop this monster and if its nocturnal we need to come at night where its easy for it to appear and listen, some eye witnesses said they heard singing, making sure there ears were covered they should be able to find the mysterious ghost.
Back with Alice as she read a bit in the library along with Orochi as the Glow looked out a window as she was longing as Alice felt a song on her lips a Zelda song as if she feels she needed to sing.
Alice: Locked away…in this grey…world of endless solitude
You abandoned me, left me in the grave here I stay night and day
I can think only of you…in this dark lonely cave
As Alice sings she didnt know she made a future card but at the same time outside as the sunsets a soft gentle fog rolled in as if attracted as the heros at the cross roads watched the place as a light fog rolled in.
Thousand years of my tears rain down through the atmosphere
Who you were is not…what you have become
The thunder my anger strikes the earth and I wonder…if you will ever come…
As she sings Glow feels a odd calm as she floated over and stands close to Alice as Orochi watched as the other clear card spirits Alice made circled her as she continued
Does it seem like a dream one from which I cant awake Nightmares shroud the room silent they remain…
Here I pray night and day, as the walls around me shake…and my vision clouds with rain
Soon night came as lanturns light the outside courtyard by mages who control fire as the fog rolled in as a glowing light seems to glow in to where the heros were as they didnt need to be guided in but swallowed by the lights fog before they could react as another voice seems to sing with Alice as she didnt noticed.
Alice/Mysterious voice: thousand years of my tears rain down through the atmosphere who yo were is not…what you have become
The thunder my anger strikes the earth and I wonder…if you will ever come…
Through my heart rips apart brother/sister hope is in this verse
Devils in the dark…will forsake your soul here I play/sing night and day
Music will subdue your curse/lonlyness and you will regain control
As Alice sings Glow feeling the fog like presence and the presence she feels she needs to follow flys up and away through the door as she feels she need to go to it.
Thousand years of my tears rain down through the atmosphere, who you were will be who you are again
The thunder my anger strikes the earth and I wonder…if this is the final end
(AN: Those were lyrics for the Loz Song of storms)
Alice then looked up and saw her clear spirits and Orochi watching her as she blushed "What? Bebbe always shows me these lyric videos on you tube and when you have a photographic memory like me well…it sticks in my brain arcive" she said blushing "Hay its ok you have a cool voice but there is a problem *Poitns as anime style zoom on a missing space where Glow was* GLOWS MISSING!" He yelled as Alice fell backwards off her chair with a yelp panic.
Minutes later with her rod out as the fog seems to flow through the building as she was worried about the fog and wondered if it was the mist card or something else as Orochi rode on her head as she had the shadow card to trace Glow since she was made from her mana signature as she cautiously walked through the hallways that was filled with a light fog with small glowing lights like flames mixed in the fog as there seem to be a echo "Does this Mist card actually do these lights? These flames?" Asked Orochi as he floated to touch the orbs…but they seem to mimic more of a whisp as they seperated. "No the mist can dissolve and create a mist when she wants to and a fog card…maybe if my magic expands but this…with Glows disapearance I dont know if its something diffrent" said Alice as she got outside and it was quiet as a tomb, there was the foggy lights but there was no one as the guided shadow lead her to the area but spread out as if confused as it returned to Alice shaking his head as she gently patted his hood "Its ok you tried I understand" she said looked around "Just what is going on if I cant trace anyone…could it be…erase?" She said worried as Mao stepped through the fog like a ghost as Orochi yelped worried at how phantom like he was.
"Mao *Runs over and hugs him* oh you are ok everyone else was either erased or worst" she said as Mao gently patted her head "Its ok the card you made maybe made of your magic but I am a god and a bit stronger and everyone wants erased just taken to a separate world by the one leading them astray" said Mao "Leading? Wait did you see the glow card? Is she ok?" Asked Alice worried "Calm down she is ok she was following the song of the ones you saw in your dreams as the card wishes to have a companion" he said as Alice wondered and then realized her dream "The poes are all physically diffrent but what they have in common are the…lanterns I reconize the card is the lantern card *paces as the shadow card follows still attracted to her shadow* but why did glow follow the lantern…*eyes widened and had a wondering look* did…she wishes to boost her magic with working with the lantern? *To the fog* is that why you felt the drag from the lantern" she asked but got no noise "Was that supposed to do something?" Asked Orochi "Well sometimes cards will reveal themselves if you reveal there name and they will come out" said Alice as she hummed pondering as she studied the fog around her, Mao and Orochi as she realized "Oh you are shy are you, my dream showed poes are you physically are like a poe and are scared of your appearance?" She asked as she got no answer but her developing magic senses can feel the emotion as she hand a realization "you sang with me when I was studying in the library, do you like music? Is that why you love to sing as well attracting all of those targets?" Asked Alice as she had a feeling from the fog from the card "You can sing?" Asked Mao as Alice nodded "You should had heared her she was amazing" said Orochi as Alice blushed "well you can try as some spirits especially shy ones may feel calm at that" said Mao as Alice nodded and stepped to the middle of the courtyard as she started to sing
Alice: Day to night dark to light fall the sands of time
Let the years like the gears of a clock unwind *As Alice started to sing a whisp seem to feel at ease feeling the seniority of the song*
In your mind walk through time back to better days memories like a dream, wash the tears away *Just like before the card spirits appeared to listen to Alice sing as Mao and Orochi watched as the whisp got closer*
Like a star in the sky darkness cant reach you
Light the sky joy Is light, till the new dawn
Alice and the mysterious voice: Cast away your old face let go of your spite
With this mask I'll ask to borrow your light one the years still your fears
Time will seal your fate will the curse be reversed before its too late
Soon from the fog a whisp seems to make a shape but it looks like a cloaked short figure in pink or purple holding a lantern with glow on its shoulder enchanted by the song Alice was singing.
Alice: Ash to dust left to rust all time fades away all your pain still remains cast it away *Alice turns to the Poe figure as she smiled gently as they held hands
Poe: You must take on the light let it help guide you follow the path ahead forge one anew
Alice and the poe: Darkness is fading now its not too late *Gently presses there foreheads together* three days is all you have
That made Mao, Orochi and the spirits clap (Though the spirits made there own noise) as Alice blushed as she looked at the poe as Glow flew over to her as she hugged the little spirit "You are not dangerous at all are you you were lonely were you *cue the Poe shuffling there holding there lamp* well if you join me I promise you can hear me sing and if you want join me and have a beautiful audience together" said Alice as the spirit looked at the others and smiled under the hood and nodded as she pulled out her staff and gently held it over the poe as she chanted. "Force with out master heed the call of my staff of dreams and become my power! Secure!" She chanted as the poe was embedded around the poe as it got sucked in and soon transformed into a card as the crystal shattered revealing the stark crystal and the the clear card as it floated into Alices hand revealing the image of the Arberter grounds poe holding forward a beautiful lantern with the soft words the lantern on the script as she smiled "Lets work together and…" she said but fainted as its learned that the lantern pulled out the magic to create the large myst as it cleared away and revealed all that were disappeared and vanished returning non the worst for wear but confused and wondering where the spirit was as Mao picked up alice to take her to her room.
'With her power growing that spread to create this myst to trap people but not erase is impressive but time it will become a power to erase like the erase card' thought Mao as he and Orochi went to Alices room as Alice dreams of being in the town of the world that never was as she and the Lantern card sang together Loz songs in the beautiful world that never was.
Authors note: and that is the next new card who is a shy spirit like the wolf from "Wolf princess and blind prince" who is shy and loves to sing in the fog they created due to its shifting apperance as a poe creature.
Its special power is to guide in the darkness with its light but it has a hidden power to enfuse its lantern with other clear cards to change its powerful light.
Next chapter Alice proves her worth around the castle by helping her out with chores and laundry, but there is a problem as a slippery foam is making a mess along with a gelly like substance causing a mess around .
