The Flame of Fire

 

 

 

"SAKURA!, You almost lost that card!!!" Li screamed

'Im sorry, Li, I really am!!I 'll concentrate harder I promise!!"Sakura sobbed to Li.

 "There won't be a next time Sakura, your not worthy of being a cardcaptor!, Just go back home where you belong , and stay away from me, I can handle it!.......I DON'T NEED YOU!" Li slapped her across the face.

** heh.....he must be joking right,???..............i thought he got over that competitve thing a long time ago! This cant be right.......!!! Maybe if it wasn't so dark out I could see his face and tell if he was joking or not....OWE!! (eyes tearing up) h he  hit me! Why would he hit me!! Only one way to find out! LIGHT CARD,.....RELEASE!** a blinding light lit the wooded area they were in, illuminating the trees around them. Li's face stood out against them- and he wasn't smiling, just glaring.

**Oh no....... he isn't joking, so what should I say?** Sakura collapsed on the ground sobbing. ~~ That's it Li, u did it! Now she wont be hurt when we leave for Hong Kong. Oh no, she started to cry! I didn't expect here to cry, Why did I hit her........now what should I do....~~

Li walked towards Sakura who was still crying on the muddy ground.

"Sakura.....I" Li started but Sakura cut him off sharply.

" Li, no I understand, you don't have to explain. I will go now, Arigato Li, for all your help." she got up and ran away. To where, I don't think she knew. She just had to get away from Li.

                                   **A Mile away**

`Im not going to cry, Im not going to cry' C'mon Sakura, be strong.

`I can't, Li hit me! He Hates me!"(Back to reality) while Sakura was having a mental war with herself, she didn't notice the dark figures moving in on her.

Not until it was too late. "Hey little girl, what are you doing out all alone, you shouldn't be out alone, you know, It's dangerous" a deep, dark voice called from the edge of the forest. Sakura began the creep backwards, noticing the im-someone-bad-and-I-want-something tone.

"Yes, the Card Mistress should know better than that" said another jumping from behind her.

"W who are you!,"Sakura screamed to the first one. "How do you know about the Clow Cards! Show yourself!" Sakura began the get desperate. She didn't have her sealing wand, she was in trouble.

The owners of the voices stepped out into the light, where Sakura could see their hideous faces.

"Please, please don't!!" Sakura screamed.

 

 

~~ I've been walking for half an hour already, where could she have gone!? I checked her house and she hadn't come home yet! She could be in trouble, I shouldn't have let her go.......WAIT! I'll use the lasin board. Pulling it out of his robes he started to chant...........hear my plight release the light IGNIGHT! It pointed to where the forest starts. Seems about 10 min. away. Ok ! he started running at top speed towards it~~

 

**At Sakura's House**

(Kero)Where is she? Li came here without her, I wonder if she is in trouble.....I shouldn't have let her go alone, she wasn't ready. On the window a tapping noise began. It got louder every second. Maybe that's her, I'll open it." Kero flew over and unlocked the window. It flew open and two figures tumbled in. "Kero, we sensed Sakura is ion trouble, where is she?" Yue said getting up. "Yes keroberos, where is the card mistress?!" Eriol cried, more urgently then Yue had.

"Well, here's the thing, she went off with that Chinese brat to get a card and then they didn't come back, BUT, about 20 minitues ago he came walking up to the house as if he was looking for something...Sakura wasn't with him."

"Well then, we were right, we must find Sakura before it is too late" Yue said opening the window wider.
