to those really rich people in Japan called CLAMP. Besides, I am poor,
so it would do no good to sue me. All I am is just a fun loving fanfic
writer.
Disclaimer 2: This is my very first fanfic ever so don't kill me if it
sucks.
Disclaimer 3: The character Deserta/Datteshi is my creation. Email me
before you use this character in any of your fanfic writings. Clamp
attorneys may contact me for use of this character, for a small price
($10 mil would do it).

Chapter 6

During breakfast, Syaoran (It just doesn't feel right to type in Li! I'm
changing back to Syaoran!) just listened to the two girls conversing.
Well, I can't actually say that. He wasn't listening. He appeared to be,
but he was thinking. Tomoyo and Sakura never really noticed him.
After breakfast, Syaoran promptly left the mansion. On the way home he
passed by Deserta's house. The urge to ring her doorbell was very
strong, but he resisted.
Deserta was thinking furiously. *This is taking too long. I need those
cards now! If that pesky scientist hadn't taken the Clow Book out of our
house...* her thoughts were interrupted when she looked out the window to
see her key, Syaoran, walking home, deep in thought. She ran back to her
lab and concocted a potion that would put the drinker under her total
control. She quickly poured it into a small glass vile and left the
house. Syaoran was so deep in though, that he didn't even notice the
figure following him home.
