Card Captor Sakura Fan Fiction ❯ Castle of the Moon ❯ The End ( Chapter 15 )

I don't like OC… original characters…

Pairing: Yue x Syaoran, in case you didn't notice in the 14 earlier chapters…

I despise Guinevere…

Chapter 15

 

The war was quickly over. The battle was won. Britain was free. It now belonged to the native peoples. Wasn't that grand?

Syaoran and Yue watched Arthur and Guinevere's wedding in silence.

“I still feel uneasy…”

< I agree. There is something about that woman that prickles… >

< You feel it as well, Yue? >

< Hai… >

 

Guinevere glared at the healer-woman and her son. There was something not right with them, she just knew it!

Now if only the others would listen to her…

< I'm scared. >

< Syaoran? > Yue looked at the boy, puzzled. < What's wrong? >

< I feel cold, Yue… so cold. > He sighed, sounding much younger than he looked, before he keeled down right in Yue's arms.

The guardian stiffened. Something was very wrong here…

 

Guinevere frowned. What was that boy doing? Interrupting her wedding like that! His mother began to fuss over him, fear in her motions…

< Poison… >

< Yue…? >

< Don't move and don't try to speak. > Yue said, before he concentrated… yes, there was poison in the boy's body, there!

It was trying to devour his body, but his magic was in the way…

No wonder he had been feeling so weak. But where had the poison come from?

Where had it come from? If Syaoran had been injured he would have known… unless there had been something in the food…

Yue didn't eat, so he could not possibly be poisoned through that route…

However, Syaoran was mortal… and from his color, it was to be proven unless he could do something, quickly…

Well, it mattered little what these people saw, they could use Erase later… he could feel the boy tremble in his arms as he concentrated… there it was, coiled and hideous like a gray snake, gnawing away at Syaoran's aura…he suspected that vile woman's hand in this, as he smiled thinly. < Syaoran. >

<… Yue? >

< Hang on… I'm using Erase to get the poison out. >

< Oh. Good… > He didn't sound awake at all.

By now, most of the people were watching Yue and Syaoran as a blue glow surrounded them both…

 

Finally, the light cleared. Syaoran looked fine, but Yue…. He had sacrificed the illusion to activate the Erase card…

Gasps came from all around.

“An angel!”

“No, a demon!”

“A witch!”

“Burn them!”

“Kill them!”

Yue smiled as he tightened his grip on Syaoran. The men started edging closer… and then he spread his wings and took off.

Some of the bolder ones raced to grab bows and arrows, but others simply stared in awe…

They flew for a long time…

Finally, they landed on a small island. Yue drew out the Create card and waited for Syaoran to wake.

Slowly, the boy stirred… without the poison in his system nay longer, his magic was growing and repairing itself like it was wont to do… and so now he woke, blinking sleep from his eyes. < What happened? >

< They found out. > Yue said simply. Syaoran sighed.

< It was bound to happen, I suppose. What now? >

< Now we wait, I suppose… >

< Create… > Syaoran murmured, staring at the card. It was one that he had not changed yet…

He didn't feel as tired anymore, so why not?

“Create!”

The book flashed, glowing first green, than silver… a castle rode from the ground, towering pillars of white stone, laced with silver…

Yue watched, impressed, as the pulsing finally stopped. Syaoran gave a mock bow as he offered his arm.

Together, they walked into the castle. Rich tapestries sprawled over the area, although the moon guardian noticed that it had modern plumbing and heating systems. The best of both worlds, he supposed.

< That is almost all of them, isn't it? >

Syaoran nodded. < Yes… > He hugged his cards to his chest as they lay on a darkly velvet canopied bed. < Yes, it is. >

Yue smiled fondly. < I love you. >

< I know you do… >

 

They couldn't stay together in their own time, so they had no choice. They would have to stay in another time not their own.

It was fine. In the end, no one would miss them…

 

Over the time, legends began to spread, about a dark wizard and the innocent child he kept locked in a high tower, and then those mutated as well, changing into a story about a witch who kept her long-haired captive alone…

“Rapunzel?”

“It seems so.” Syaoran peered outside the window. “Do I look like a girl, Yue?”

“Not that I know of…”

“Do I look like a witch?”

“Not that I know of…”

He shook his head. “Tales have to come from somewhere, I suppose.”

“Indeed,” The moon guardian smiled wryly. “Well, then let's write the rest of our story, shall we?”

Their lips met as Yue pulled Syaoran close to him. Yes, that was the end…
