A Twist of Personalities

Chapter 2: The New Student

"Tadaima!"

"Okaerinasai, Kaijuu."

"Shut up!"

"And you tell me to shut up! Why did you set your stuffed toy on me?"

"I am NOT a stuffed toy!"

"Oh, you mean Kero? You two settle it yourself. I don't have time for it." Sakura shouted as she walked up the stairs with Arisa.

"Sakura! Can I please have some food?" Kero moaned.

"Ask onii-chan!"

"Why ME!?"

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Those two sure get along," Arisa said calmly, being her usual cool, controlled self again having finally gotten over Kero's comment.

"Kero really got you mad yesterday, didn't he?"

"Snow woman… what a joke…"

"At least he don't pester you all day to give him food or try to find cards…"

"He did that? Then he's breaking one of your rules."

"Not like he cares."

"How's the card capturing going?"

"You should know when you stays with me almost all day long."

"Not if you do it after I go."

"It's boring. Kero didn't even know how to do it the easy way."

******Flashback******

"Sakura, what are you doing?"

"Trying to sense the cards."

"What!? How can you sense them when they're not doing anything!?"

"It's not like they don't show their aura."

"Huh?"

"I just sense them and teleport them here in their card form."

"WHAT!?"

***End of Flashback***

"That's the people from this dimension fro you! None of them is exactly clever."

"Yeah."

At that moment, Kero flew in, carrying a giant plate of biscuits, trying to balance them with his tiny paws.

"Biscuits, biscuits…" he sang as he happily swallowed the whole lot in one go.

"Oh yah, Sakura, do you know how to fortune tell?" he asked after he finished, his stomach bloated and a lazy expression on his face.

"Why do I need to fortune tell when I just know?"

"What do you mean you just know?"

"Easy, if I want to know what's going to happen in the future, I just think and I know."

"Huh?"

"It's a bit hard to explain…ask Arisa."

Kero turned his head to the other girl.

"Sakura, you know this sort of things is hard to put into words. We just know. That's all."

"Oh. Well then what's going to happen to me tomorrow?"

"You're going to get slaughtered by Sakura's brother. Not literally, that is."

"I wish I didn't ask…and Sakura, how many cards did you capture?"

"Let's see…just 20."

"YOU CAPTURED 20 CARDS IN JUST ONE WEEK!?"

"Stop shouting, Kero! It's not that it's a miracle or what! It is even possible to get them all in one weeks as long as you sit there for a full 10 hours. Too bad for you, I don't have the patience. I can only stay still for one hour."

"Your powers scares me sometimes…"

"Your lucky. Sakura haven't turned you into roasted teddy yet." Arisa commented.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Sakura walked into the classroom and plopped down in her seat.

"Ohayou, Sakura-chan." Tomoyo said from beside her.

"Yeah."

Arisa turned back and whispered to Sakura, "Prepare for a brown-haired jerk to enter our life."

"You looked into the future?"

"Why don't you try and see."

"It is better to know nothing and let each moment surprise you. Isn't that what you always say?"

"Yeah but you can get bored sometimes."

"You got a point there."

The door opened and the teacher walked in. He put his things on the desk and flipped open the register.

"Alright, we have a new transfer student today. His name is Li Syaoran. Please come in."

A boy with chestnut coloured hair walked in.

"Told ya." Sakura heard Arisa whisper.

The boy surveyed the class, and his eyes rested on Sakura.

'He really is a jerk.' Sakura thought uninterestedly.

"Let's see, why don't you sit behind Kinomoto."

'What! Have a jerk sitting behind me!?'

The boy walked over and stopped in front of Sakura, staring at her.

"What the matter, jerk? Stop daydreaming and get to your seat." Sakura said, only loud enough for the new student, Arisa and Tomoyo to hear. She smiled inwardly as the boy's emotionless face turn to one of anger. He gave a snort and turned away.

'Told you he was a jerk.' Arisa spoke into her mind. That was how they communicate during classes.

'He have magic too. And he seem to know about ours.'

'Ah. A new target. I'm getting sick of Touya.'

'This Li Syaoran will be more interesting, hopefully.'

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Li Syaoran watched as the two girls walked down the stair for their break. The one with the auburn hair has the cards. And both have magic.

He approached them quietly.

Though, unknown to him, both girls were reading his thoughts and turned before he could reached them.

"We need to talk. Is that what you want to say." Arisa said playfully, grinning. He could not see her eyes as she was still wearing her sunglasses. He can see the auburn haired girl smirking.

They want to a quiet spot.

"So, you want to get the Clow cards, right, little boy?" Sakura said, looking bored.

"I am not a little boy!"

"Yeah, whatever. And please stop thinking of curses." Arisa said calmly.

"Stop reading my mind!"

"No. Anyway, I can take care of the cards myself so you better scram."

"Yeah. Or go home to your mommy and say that two bad girls bullied you and won't let you steal their things." Arisa teased.

"Stop treating me like a little boy!"

"We do what we like."

"Shut up, you old woman."

"Old woman! Indeed!" Arisa claimed as she lifted up her glasses to look straight at Syaoran, who was taken aback by her eyes. He had just thought that she dyed her hair and powdered her face before but now he is having second thoughts. But before he can do anything, he found a fireball heading towards him, full speed.

The next moment, he was toast. (If you don't like toast, then make it bacon)

"Come on, Sakura, let's go and not waste our time on him."

"Sure."

=======After School=======

"Are you sure you're alright, young master?"

"Yeah, Wei. I can't believe that that white girl burned me."

"Sorry but what do you mean by white girl?"

"The girl with the card captor. She has white hair, pale face and … her eyes; they were like those of a cat or an owl. She wears dark glasses to block them."

"I see."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Sakura, you seem so happy today."

"Of course. I found a new person to sabotage."

"Who?"

"Oh. Just a jerk called Li Syaoran."

"Li? Is he from the Li clan?"

"Why ask me. But the answer is yes."

"You always know everything…"

A rumbling sound rang outside.

"Sakura, better take down the laundries. It's going to rain."

"No it isn't. It's the thunder card."

"You can sense it from here!?"

"What do you expect?"

Arisa suddenly appeared in front of them.

"That thing seems to want a little game."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

The Thunder card roared as Arisa used her protection spell to block off yet another of its attack.

"This thing is useless."

"Let's finish it off."

"That's no fun."

"What do you two think this is? A game?" A voice asked from behind them.

"Oh hi, jerk. Came to get killed?"

"I am not a jerk!"

The Thunder card sent out another attack.

"Raitei Shourai!" (Lightning, come forth)

The two attacks clashed and form an explosion.

"At least he can do something."

"Let's end this, shall we?"

"Sure."

"Val-Flare!" Sakura formed what seemed like an enlarged flare arrow in her hand and it flew out towards the card.

"Flare Lance!" Arisa formed a spear of fire in her hands and threw it out.

The two Fire spells knocked into the card and knocked it down.

"Return to your true form, Clow Card!"

The Thunder went back into its card form and flew into Sakura's hands.

"Well, know what? This is more fun."

"You two aren't taking this seriously at all!?" Li Syaoran shouted angrily.

"Why should we?"

Kero flew over, congratulating them on the successful capture.

"Huh, what's this?"

"It's Kero."

"What! The guardian beast of the seal is just a stuffed animal?"

"He sure looks the part, doesn't he?"

"Yeah… owwwww!" Syaoran yelled as Kero chomped his finger. "Why doesn't he do anything to you but bite me!?"

"I have my ways, jerk."

"You…I'll get you next time!" Syaoran said as he walked away.

"Guess we'll have to put up with him. Oh yah, Sakura, you said that this is more fun?"

"Yup. So I'm going to do it this way next time."

"But that will be slower!!!"

"Do you have any problems with that?" Sakura asked through narrowed eyes.

"Err, no, not at all!"

Author's notes: I can't help it. I like putting in a lot of conversations. Sorry if it's confusing. I used mainly fire spells in this chapter so I'll try to put more varieties in the next. Please Review to let me know if I should continue!
