The Power of Two
By Margaret Chen Li
Chapter One
Li fell down the cliff


"It's summer again! Wahoo!" Said Sakura with a really happy smile. "Hey, since this is the end of the our first school year at Junior High, why don't we just have a celebration?" "Great idea Meilin!" "I know a place that is the best we can go. There's a camp in the city and we can go there. They split groups of four so we can be in a group. Do all the other great stuff. Don't you think?" Asked Madison. "Oh yeah, I remembered that we have to sign up tomorrow or it's late so we better go home and tell our parents and pack up. And don't forget to bring some cards to help!" "Let's go!" Sakura and the rest were happy but this might be the end. Someone wants to murder Li.
"Dad, Tori, I have something to tell you, tomorrow all four of us, CardCaptors Scott is going to camp! Don't worry, I'm bring cards to help." "Okay Sakura, you're a big girl now!" "Dad, don't you think Sakura is really pretty? She's more like our mother right now. And I know she's gonna to be pretty as our mother when she grow up." "Right Tori, I think so too. I'm really proud of her. She makes me remember stuff about her mother." Tori had this conversation with his father.
"We have to make tents. We only have two tents, how are we gonna to split the group?" "I think Li should sleep alone and all of us sleep in a tent." "Good idea." It's nighttime, Madison and Meilin are asleep, Li sense something around the bush so he got up and trying to find out what is it. Sakura woke up by Li's steps and Sakura followed him. "This is amazing isn't it Sakura?" "Sure it is Li, I think you're right, it's the best solution to tell my parents that we're CardCaptors. I still remember their faces when they heard that. And Tori is really confused but he doesn't call you brat anymore." Sakura and Li began to laugh but suddenly they all stopped.
"Did you sense something Sakura?" "I did, it's so strong, but I can't feel where it's from. I'll go back and get all the card and stuff." "No time for that, what about if it vanished?" "But…" "I think it's okay, we just have to find then we go and get the stuff." "Okay." A shadow came from the bush and took Sakura and Li and gone.
The next morning when Madison and Meilin woke up, they didn't notice Li and Sakura were gone because they thought that Sakura was going to find something for breakfast and Li is still asleep. "Meilin, how come Sakura didn't come back that late? You should wake Li up and look for them!" "Okay. Li, it's time to wake up! I don't want to go in your tent so get out there yourself." A minute later, nothing happened so Meilin entered the tent and found nothing. "Madison, you are right! Li and Sakura are missing!" "Or maybe they are just going to find some breakfast." "I'll try the Lasin Board. Force, know my plight, release the light! It pointed that way!" "We're going to get Li and Sakura's stuff and our stuff to find them." So Madison and Meilin began to look for Sakura and Li.
"The road ended, it's a cliff, but Lasin Board pointed on the other side of this cliff but how did they get there?" "Fly! Fly us to the other side of this cliff!" Madison and Meilin flied on the other side of the cliff but the Lasin Board stopped and there's nothing else.
"Sakura, wake up! I think we're kidnapped!" Sakura woke up by Li's voice. "I saw something in my dream, but I don't remember, it's something bad and we've got to get out here before something risks us." "Right!" "Hold it!" Said a voice from behind, "please, you gotta help us." "Who are you?" "I'm Sunlin and Moonlin's daughter, Mauri. My brother is Sauri and he's in danger. Clow Mistress, you gotta help me, only you can help me." "But I didn't know if it's same. You have to tell me the story first."
"Okay, when my mother was pregnant, it supposes to be twins, a boy and a girl. In the Source rules, the god and goddess always have twins but it turns out to be triplets. All the Source children were in order like the boy had red hair stands for sun and the girls have blonde hair stands for moon. They all have blue eyes stands for sky. My other brother looks so different. He had dark hair, and dark brown eyes. He looks exactly like the Shadow from Dark Shadow world when he was little. My parents took good care of him and let the best teacher in Source World to teach him. But the best teacher was a betrayer, he was the Dark Shadow's assistant and he teaches my other brother Sanuri bad stuff. Then he betrayed the Source World. He locked up my parents and he became the one in charge. Clow Mistress, you have to go there and stop him before he gets you. He wants 10 elements from the Clow Master and Mistress and Assistants. Five cards, four test cards, and the charger for the test cards, the Shadow, which is the gold."
"So what should I do to help you?" "Don't let them get your elements. The five cards are The Windy, The Earthy, The Wood, The Watery, and The Thunder. The four test cards, The Perfect, The Cold, The Love, and The Control. Even though the place you finished the test were erased but the gold and the cards will come to your hand right now, see it?" "Yeah." "Hide it! Quick! Get all of those cards and stuff protected then you'll be safe." "Ha, ha, ha, ha. You guys are too late. You're not good as I am sis, my name is Darken now, and I'm the king of the Magic World. Now give me the gold and the test cards." "No way!" Li jumped and get all the stuff and throw it on Sakura's face but he accidentally fell down the cliff. "Sakura, I'll love you forever, don't worry about me!" The last thing Li said then he's long gone.
Sakura can't hold any longer, she cried and cried. "Darken, even though you're the king of Magic World but I'm still your sister and I have more power than you have. Sakura, I'll bring Darken back and he won't bother you for about a day but beware." "Sakura! Where've you been?" Said Meilin, "where's Li?" Sakura is still sobbing but she pointed the cliff then down and Meilin and Madison looked down and they saw Li's dead body on the ground. "Sakura, what've you did to Li! I don't mind if Li likes you but he's still my cousin! You gotta pay for this." Meilin began to cry and so did Madison.
"Hey you guys, don't cry, I'll tell you what happened." Mauri told them what happened and Meilin apologized to Sakura. "I'll bring you and all your stuff home and things will get better."
Second later, Sakura is sitting in the kitchen and Tori were wondering how did she get there. Tori were going to to ask what happened to Sakura because she was still crying but she decided to call Madison. Madison explained everything and Tori felt so sorry. "Sakura, I know what you're going through now, so go to the bathroom, take a hot bath then go to bed." Sakura did what her brother did and Tori told his dad about what happened in the Camp.
Sakura was sleeping but the entire dream she had was the minute that Li fell down the cliff. "Sakura, I'll love you forever, don't worry about me!" Sakura is still thinking about this. About a week, Sakura is like that but on the next Monday, Madison invited Sakura to her house to see something.
"Sakura, I know this can't make you happy but I know you'll feel better. I finished 10 tapes about you capturing cards and the fun you had. You can go home and watch those or you can just watch it here." Madison said and she made Sakura some cookies and tea. Sakura watched two tapes then she brought the rest home and watches it alone in her room. "Sakura, don't feel bad, I can definitely sense something that is unexpected. I hope you'll feel better." Kero said.
Sakura watched all those tapes and she once laughed when she and Li accidentally fell in love because of the Love card. She felt a lot better. But there's still mission behind her. Sakura finally had a really nice sleep.
