Ancient Powers Long Forgotten

Chapter 5: The Visitor

"Syaoran, you have to come immediately. It's an emergency!"

"What is it, mother?"

"One of the elders had been crushed to death."

"Crushed!?"

"Yes, every bone in his body is broken. I doubt that even his finger bone is still full."

"It's the same person as before, isn't it."

"Yes. He left another note."

"Let me see it."

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

Sakura smiled as she listened in on the conversation. She had not expected the clan to be as stupid as to not recognize her as a girl. They thought it was a male. No surprise though. They aren't detectives, after all.

'Admiring your latest masterpiece?'

'If that's what you call it.'

'Your powers are great. Not even he knows about it.'

'Who?'

'You should know. The reincarnation of Clow Reed.'

'You know Clow too, Moriah?'

'Of course. He was the greatest magician of his time.'

'I see.'

'You are great too. Just that you work in the shadows and let no one know of you.'

'I don't see the need.'

'What will you do after you have your revenge?'

'That doesn't matter. As long as the Li clan is destroyed.'

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

Li Syaoran and Li Yelan walked into the room to see a circle of pale faces staring at them. Whoever it was, his powers are beyond control. He is, perhaps, even more powerful than Clow Reed. It is not over yet. There will be more. He will not stop until all of them are destroyed. The note says it all. As usual, it is just a short sentence.

'Soon, Li Clan, soon, I shall have my revenge.'

Revenge. Nobody had been able to figure who is it that had anything against them. All the people who had a reason to hate them are dead. And dead people can't come back to life.

The door opened. Everyone turned to see the intruder.

It was Hiiragizawa Eriole.

The shock was clear in everyone's faces.

"P…please, sit down."

"Thank you. It's been a long time, descendent."

He received a glare from Syaoran.

"Why are you here."

"To help. Things are pretty bad, if I'm not wrong."

"They're very bad. Do you have any idea who is causing all this?"

"I'm sorry, but I don't."

"But, you are so powerful…"

"This person is stronger than me, descendent."

"Does that mean we have no chance to defeat him?"

"No, not if you do it by force."

"Then how?"

"I have no idea."

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

'So, Eriole's here too. Not that he'll be much help.'

'The past Clow Reed?'

'Yes.'

'Aren't you nervous? He is quite strong.'

'Why should I be nervous? Things are just getting more interesting.'

'It's a wonder how much you can change during such a short period of time.'

'It's no wonder at all, Moriah, it's no wonder at all.'

Author's note: All right, here's something for those new readers if you haven't read my other author's notes. Please review and tell me if the story should be S+S. I'm going to make the final decision on 16th March so…you have until then.

And since quite a few people asked me to e-mail when I update, might as well do it for all. Just give me your e-mail address and I'll mail you when a new chapter is up.
