Spirit card

The light flickered when it touched Sakuras face.
Then a sigh, like autum leaves were heard. Syaoran
became uneasy and walked over to Sakura. When he
touched Sakuras forhead with his hand he suddenly
felt a jolt of power zap through him. ¡°Ouchies!!¡±
Syaoran yelled in pain.Then a voice filled his head,
both beautiful and terrifying at the same time.
¡®Syaoran Li. You will encounter something.....the
disaster that was bound to happen.... Be ready...¡&hibar; Li
got up as he saw tiny pinpricks of green light. Sakura
stirred. ¡°Hoe....¡± Sakura got up slowly. ¡°Where did that
future card go?¡± Syaoran looked at Sakura, relived
that Sakura was alright. ¡°Your ok?¡± Syaoran looked at
Sakura and she smiled. ¡°Yea.¡± Then she winced. ¡°I
don¡&hibar;t belive you.¡± Li said with a curt voice. Hegrabbed
Sakuras arm and she yelped with suprise. He turned
her arm and a large bloddy handprint was there. ¡°The
Future card can only get your soul by periceing
through your body, I think.¡± Syaoran looked at
Sakura. ¡°It wants you.¡±
~~~~
Saoren looked uncomftable while he yanked his
longish amber brown hair out of his eyes. He was
happy, to see such a sweet girl. Sakura. He slowly
shut his eyes. His green aura fileed with green yellow
electricity flared as he remebered the good old days.
He looked down at his two sons. ¡°Be ready.¡± Then he
looked at a Sakura tree and a apple tree and sighed. ¡°
Daughter, wife.... Be safe, I pray that he who is a part
of me will help greatly thus I be ashamed.¡±
~~~~~
Li jumped and leaped and fell backwards as
Sakura clung to him. ¡°You are a baka!!¡± Sakura yelled
out. ¡°Use the jump card with strategy!¡± ¡°I¡&hibar;m trying
sheesh! Girls!¡± Appple Blossom giggled. ¡°You two
make a great couple!¡± Her yet so familiar brown eyes
twinkled. Her heavy brown eyebrows furrowed as the
two looked at her like they were going to kill her.
¡°Hey. Thats only the truth! ^^;¡± Eriol called at them.
¡°You can¡&hibar;t find the cards! They find you!¡± Sakura
sweatdropped. ¡°Oh.¡± (^.^;) Sakura gently got off Li¡&hibar;s
back and slid down the tree and onto the floor. She
snatched the card away from Li and put it in her
pocket. ¡° I really want to go back to my time
Tomoyo.¡± She said to the tall black haired beauty who
was recording her. She was in shock when she found
out who Tomoyo was. And Eriol too. But Apple
Blossom and Saoren was still a mystery to her.
Syaoran looked at Sakura and smiled. A very rare
smile indeed. ¡°Sakura. How many cards DO we have
to find?¡± ¡°Um... Three cards more. We already
found....uh... Confusion and Flashy.¡± Suddenly Apple
Blossom ran up to Sakura. ¡°Sakura! I need the Flashy
card! It¡&hibar;s not yours just yet.¡± ¡°Hoe. Ok. Here.¡± Sakura
gave the cards a little reluctantly. Apple Blossom took
it and gently put it into her pink and white velvet
purse. ¡°I hope we can do this.¡± Was all Apple Blossom
said.
~~~~~~
The Future card seemed to mummer. ¡°I love You
my mistress. What you are about to face. I don¡&hibar;t want
to happen to you and I don¡&hibar;t want that hot headed
chinese Brat to take you. If only you would
understand why I am doing this. The Future you will
encounter will not be a very easy one.¡± Its shadowy
figure flared as it read the future. It was a figure of a
feminime card. It had dark black eyes and dark viloet
hair with a symbol of the future on its forehead and
arm. ¡° Mistress...... You will soon be far away. I need
you.¡± Suddenly, a flash of a pink aura was seen.
¡°Leave me be Future!¡± Sakura, the older one stood
there. The Future card laughed. ¡°No. You will not be
that chinese baka¡&hibar;s. You are mine.¡±

~~~~~~
Sakura shivered as she laid down in her bed.
Something seemed to be watching her. Sakura broke
into a cold sweat. She called on her clow wand and
stood there, petrified with fear that was growing in
her. A rustle, then a whisper. Sakura shivered and
crept down into her bunny covers. Suddenly, ¡°I sense
something! A Sakura Card!¡± Apple Blossom barged
into the room wearing a light pink fannel PJ. She was
holding her silver wand. Suddenly, a tiny shriek was
heard as something fell behind the shadowy shadows
of the bedstand. ¡° Release and dispel!! Glow!!¡± Sakura
yelled out. A strange figure in Yellow appeared with
strange gold eyes. It screeched. Then lept into the air.
¡°What Sakura card is that?!¡± Sakura yelled out. ¡°Thats
the Spirit card! It is very energetic and loves to fight!¡±
Sakura laughed. ¡°But thats the fight card!¡± ¡°But this
card does magic too.¡± ¡°Oh....¡± The yellow figure lept at
Apple Blossom. Apple Blossom ran and excecuted a
perfect jump kick and hit the yellow spirit. Kara
barged in. ¡°Uh oh.¡± She whispered. ¡°This is one of the
most stubbornest card. Care ful. Spirit is fast.¡±
~~~~
Syaoran walked down a long hallway. ¡°Be ready
for a mission ahead of you.¡± A strangely familiar
voice said to him. Whiriling around and gripping his
sword he yelled. A man , very tall with brown hair
and brown eyes stood there. He was in a green
chinese kimono thing like him. ¡°Who are you?¡± Li
stuttered out. ¡°That is for you to find out, and for me
to know.¡± The man said with a serious voice. Li tried
to indentify him with his gift, but every magical
passage way was blocked. ¡°Go now. Sakura needs
your help.¡± Then Syaoran woke up and panted. ¡°What
was all that about?¡± Suddenly, a peircing shriek
brought him back to his senses.¡±Whoa.¡± Li said. As he
jumped up, in his green PJs he ran out carrying his
sword.
~~~~
¡°HYAH!¡± Apple Blossom swung her legs around
and hit the card with a powerful back kick. Sakura
sweadropped. ¡°Wow. She is better then Meilin!¡± Apple
Blossom blocked the spitits moves and fliped twice
before taking out her wand. Before she could do
anything, Spirit jumped and hit her on the back.
Apple Blossom rolled onto the floor. Apple Blossom
swung her wand and muttered something. ¡°I call unto
thee, through the power I made thee, Come to use
now....FREEZE!¡± Apple blossom hit the spirit with little
spears of ice, and missed. It however made a really
good decoration on the wall. It peirced through the
heavy concrete and bursted into a million diffrent
flakes of ice. ¡° Shimmatte!!¡± Apple Blossom yelled.
¡°Help her Sakura!¡± Kero yelled out. Sakura nodded.
¡°Release and dispel!! --.¡± the spirit card hit Sakura on
the back. Sakura pitched forward and hit her chin
against the night stand, and blood came out of her
mouth as her sharp teeth painfully peirced through
her lips. ¡°Ahhh!!¡± Sakura yelled in pain. Spirit amied
another kick. Kero chan clamped himself on the
yellow demon like creatures arm. Kara followed suite.
It shrieked and threw the two onto the wall with a dull
thud. Kero and Kara were knocked out cold. Sakuras
mouth was bleeding even harder now and her eyes
were filled with tears as the crimson red blood
dripped down her pale chin and onto her whit and
pink pajamas. Apple Blossom got up. ¡°No!¡± she kicked
the spirit card with a deadly ki=nife chop, it was so
hard, that a cracking sound was heard as Apple
Blossom started to sceram with pain. Her hand was
swolled and her wrist came into a strange angle. But
the spirit was hurt. Sudden pounsing was heard on
the stairway. However, the card stared at Sakura and
advanced toward her with its mangeled arms. Sakura
shrieked.
~~~~~
Syaorans heart beat faster as he raced up the
steps. ¡®Man! My room had to be on the first floor and
*pant* Sakuras room is on the fifth!¡&hibar; Then with a sigh
of relief, he got to his destination. Then , a shriek was
heard. Sakuras shriek. ¡°Hang on!¡± He grabbed his
sword and cut open the door. A yellow thing was
staring at him while holding Sakuras hair with it¡&hibar;s
hand, it was getting ready to smash Sakuras head on
the floor. Syaorans heart beat with horro as he saw
the blood that was trickling from Sakuras mouth
puddling on the floor. ¡°Force! Know my phlight
release the light! Lightning!¡± He said it under one
breath, trying to be quick. It hit the demon. Sakura
staggered back. Apple Blossom got up. ¡°I have to....¡±
She twirled her wand with a pained look. ¡°Release and
dispel! Flashy!¡± The card came out and started to
advance upon Spirit with a angry look after looking
at her mistress. They started to kick each other with
fury. Suddenly, Spirit blasted away Flashy and Flashy
returned to it¡&hibar;s card. Apple Blossom gasped. It had
took so much of her energy. Syaoran got up. He
strated to slice at the card. Sakura struggled up. ¡°
Release and dispel! Sword! Grant your power to this
wand.¡± She held the sword painfully. She sliced at the
spirit too. With burning desire to get rid of it. ¡®As
strong as the owners desire....¡&hibar; The words echoed in
her mind. She finally pinned spirit down, but was too
drained to seal it. Apple Blossom sensed this and
slowly got up. ¡°Return to your power confined , a
Sakura card!¡± Spirit struggled, bringing great gasps
of exhsuation from Apple Blossom. Apple Blossoms
Light pink aura with green electricity flared. The card
came to her. Apple Blossom fainted. They heard the
door open. Syaoran, who was holding Sakura with a
worried and tender look looked up. It was Eriol and
Tomoyo. They took in the scene of the ruined room.
The draped were torn, the wall had holes. Water,
from the ice attack puddled on the floor, broken bed,
knocked out Kero and Kara. Tomoyo sighed. ¡°I¡&hibar;m so
dissopinted in you.¡± Syaoran and Sakura looked down
and fiddled their fingers and laughed uneasily.
Tomoyo continued. ¡°You did not call me here with
Erial .... to camera you guys in action!!¡± Tomyo
whipped out her camera and kissed her camera. ¡°This
is for you daughter!¡± Then recorded the surroundings.
Sakura and Syaoran sweatdropped. Eriol looked at
them. ¡°Erial could have helped you. But she is a deep
sleeper. Not even the armegeddion could wake her.
She wakes up on her own.¡± Sakura and Syaoran
crashed onto the floor. Suppi appeared. ¡° We are
going to sy-- I mean Saorens house right now!¡±
~~~~~~
Sakura had her lips healed by Eriol and Apple
Blossom was bandaging her broken wrist. She pouted.
Her little face in a frown as she glared....¡&hibar;That seems
familiar¡&hibar; Sakura thought, at everyone. Shejumped
into the black car with everyone following her.
(Erial...for all you Erial loving people out there, was
still sleeping soundly...^^;)
~~~
Li sat there thinking while cradeling Sakuras
sleeping head in his arms. ¡®I do NOT love her. She is
like a friend to me.....¡&hibar; The car jolted and Sakura
stirred . He smiled softly and a strangely annoying
voice retorted , ¡®Whatever! You do, and you will find
out soon!¡&hibar; Syaoran banged his head on the car
window. Apple Blossom jumped and hit her head on
the car ceiling. ¡°HOEEEE!¡± She held her head. The
eyes....they looked so much like his..yet a glimpse of
some familiar look flashed in them......and the
hair....If it was loped off short and without the
curls...they would lookk like Sakura. But the girls
bangs were longer. Like...Someone he knew...Maybe
he would know soon enough. Apple Blossom stared
..uh glared? at him. ¡°What¡&hibar;cha lookin¡&hibar; at?!¡± Tomoyo
chuckled. ¡°This is great! Keep on arguing! Pretend I
am not here!¡± Eriol sweatdropped. Suddenly, the car
stopped. ¡°We are here!¡± Eriol said cheerfully as he got
off the car. A sudden, and very random thought
struck Li. ¡°ERIOL!¡± Eriol turned and smiled his smile.
¡°Yes?¡± ¡°Did you ever like Sakura?¡± Syaoran asked, he
saw how Eriol acted around her. ¡°I used too.....But...I
realized that Sakura loved someone else.¡± Syaoran
felt a shot of pain run thorough him. ¡°Oh.¡± ¡°You
finally came?¡± a smooth and silky voice smirked. It
was a familiar voice. Li turned at the dark shadow.
