Card Captor Sakura Fan Fiction ❯ Dark side of the moon ❯ Chapter 9

" Tell me why you wanted me here?" Touya asked

"Because I need you help, I'm not sure what to do."

Came the muffled reply followed by a few pieces of clothing being tossed out of a closet.

"Stop worrying and just act normal."

Yuki's head popped out from behind the door and he arched his eyebrow at Touya before disappearing back inside.

"You know what I meant and anyway the dates not until six you have * glances at clock * three hours."

"What that's all?!" came the cry followed by clothes being rapidly tossed out of the closet landing everywhere, a pair of boxers landing on Touya's head.

He sighed and rolled his eyes removing them before standing up.

"Will you calm down and just be yourself I'm sure everything will be fine."

~~~( At Akizuki's house)~~~

" I'm not sure this was a good idea." Rei said

" Why not I think it was a great idea to get the others in on this." Akizuki said as she dug through her closet.

Rei had called her asking for help unsure of what to do. Akizuki had come over and brought her over to her house then proceeded to call Sakura, Meiling, and Tomoya over to help her.

Sakura sat across from her with Meiling drinking some juice while Tomoya and Nakuru were trying to find something for her to wear.

"Where are you guys going?" Sakura asked

"To the movies."

"Anywhere else?" Meiling asked

"Well…I'm not sure." She said eyeing Tomoya as she stalked towards her a weird sparkle in her eye.

"Uh-oh, I know that look." Sakura said backing away from Tomoya a little nervous.

"Ano… Tomoya what are you doing?" Rei asked a little scared herself.

"This will be my greatest creation ever." Tomoya said smiling her eyes sparkling.

The three girls sweat dropped and inched away but were blocked when Nakuru came up behind her with more clothes and make-up.

--

Yuki shifted from foot to foot his hands fidgeting at his side. For someone who was always calm and cool he sure was nervous even his other half, Yue, was a little restless.

He bit his lip and looked at the clock, he had gotten a call from Sakura saying to pick Rei up at Akizuki's house. Touya had offered to take him, so when the two arrived they didn't expect to be waiting down stairs.

Sakura and Meiling were sitting with them looking nervously up at the ceiling.

"Oy Kaijuu what are you doing?"

Sakura growled her cheeks stained red before turning away from her brother.

"Nothing." She said and glanced up at the ceiling once more.

A few seconds later a loud thud could be heard followed by an `Ow' then another thump.

They looked towards the hall when they heard footsteps, Tomoya was coming out looking pleased with herself a goofy grin on her face and stars in her eyes.

"Kawaii." She said before squealing and stepping to the side. A few moments later Akizuki came down.

"All right here she is, your date, Rei."

However the hall stayed emptied and no one came out.

"That's your cue, Rei!"

They heard a muffled reply and were wondering what was wrong when Akizuki stomped back down the hall. They heard muffled voices before some one squealed and stumbled forward.

Yuki felt his mouth fall open and his stomach somersault. Rei stood before him her long coppery red hair hanging down and slightly curled. It was pulled to the side and held in place by a white and blue clip, she was wearing a dark green mock turtleneck that had buttons up the side of the neck; it was partially left open revealing her slender neck.

She had on a short khakis skirt that had sliver buttons going down the side and across the top and she was wearing a pair of white sneakers.

When she glanced up she was blushing slightly but that didn't matter because her eyes were what held him. Deep pools of lavender were staring back at him. It was Touya who broke the spell.

"You spent all that time and she looks the same?"

"What do you mean looks the same?! She's wearing make-up and that's a original outfit design I'll have you know!"

"Looks the same to me."

"She does not!"

"Whatever."

Akizuki growled at Touya before launching herself at him, he easily sidestepped it and watched as she fell over the couch. She jumped back up and went after him again chasing him around the room.

Rei glanced up to find Yuki staring at her, she blushed before turning her eyes away.

"Ready?" she asked not wanting to meet his gaze.

--

They had made it to the movies and were standing outside waiting to get a ticket neither one speaking. Yuki was staring at Rei who was watching the people pass by. She must have asked him a question because she was blushing and looking at him.

"I'm sorry what did you say?"

Rei blushed even harder her eye skittering away from his.

"W-What kind of movie did you want to see?"

`That's what I forgot I knew there was something. Oh well can't worry about it know.'

"What ever you want to see is fine."

Rei turned and looked up at Yuki chewing on her bottom lip she looked unsure of herself.

"Really, anything is fine."

"So you wouldn't mind… watching… Inu Yasha?"

`Anime? She likes anime, hmm interesting.'

Rei waited for him to say he didn't want to see it but when she looked up she found him smiling down at her.

"I heard that was a really great movie."

Yuki watched as Rei smiled up at him her whole face lighting up when she did. They moved forward and purchased the tickets and went inside to watch the movie.

--

Meanwhile Li was practicing with Ryuu sei trying to improve upon his magic attacks and strengthen his skill.

"You must concentrate master. The magick is an extension of you. If you do not learn to control it then you have no control over yourself."

Li just frown before bringing his sword up and slashing it down to the side pulling it even with is face. He had been trying to erect a barrier of fire of the last three hours and so far it hasn't been going to well.

"You must be at ease with yourself, do not doubt your abilities master."

His brow's furrowed down the only sign of emotion he would allow to show. Raising his sword one more time then slicing the air before him and slashing out bring the sword level with his eyes he called forth the fire.

It engulfed him and surrounded him in its flames; he was covered in a ring of fire.

"Excellent master, now hold it until I say."

Li glanced over at her the shield wavering slightly.

"Concentrate!" she roared

Sakura was in her room with Kero trying to figure out how to stop that evil mage, Gohi.

"Kero why don't we just trap him the same way as before?"

"That's a great idea Sakura but you forget we don't know how he was trapped before."

"He was separated and-"

"Yeah but do you know those kinds of spells? I don't and I have a feeling Eriol doesn't either. We should wait like Ryuu sei said just until she trained with Li a little longer."

"Fine but right now he could be in danger or what if Gohi attacks tomorrow or tonight. Then what Kero."

The guardian beast sighed and paused his video game then fluttered over to his mistress.

"Sakura don't worry about it, Li has Ryuu sei and Amaya now he's fine AND he also has you and you have us. Then there's Eriol and his guardians. So see we got it all covered."

"Yeah I guess so."

Li jumped out of the way as a large ball of blue fire burned the ground before him. Landing on the ground and skidding slightly back he raises his sword his left hand in front of his face. Closing his eyes he takes a deep breath before snapping them open and raising his hand towards the sky. Suddenly a downpour appears drowning out the flames and cooling the scorched earth.

He goes to attack again when Ryuu sei jumps out from the smoke and lunges at him knocking him back wards. They break apart and roll away from each other.

"Very good master but you must learn to summon your magic faster than that. It is just like fighting, you must train for it to be apart of you so that it flows naturally from your body."

Li nodded his head and prepared for another sparring match when a bolt of black lightening struck the ground before him. His head whipped around when he heard Ryuu sei roar. The inky black blobs were attacking her and a dark purple mist was slowly surrounding them.

Rei and Yuki were walking towards the screening room; they had just gotten their `snacks' and were heading towards their seats when Rei stopped.

`Oh no! Master I have to go to him. He needs my help but how to leave with out saying anything to Yuki.'

At the same time Yuki had sensed that his mistress was in trouble and his thoughts were going along the same lines as hers were. Yuki glanced at Rei before sneaking away and Rei was doing the same thing neither one taking notice of the other one.

Rei raced down the street ducking in an ally where she transformed, two large dragon wings engulfing her human body and replacing it with Amaya.

`I'm coming master.'

Sakura jumped back avoiding the attack by the blobs, she had felt the dark magick when she found out that Li was there too she wasted no time and raced over to help him. At the moment though they both needed a little help, the mist was covering everything making it difficult to see and with the inky blobs fading in and out it was even harder to attack.

Li glanced over his shoulder to see Sakura dodge another attack just as one was coming at him, he whipped around just in time to see Ryuu sei lunge at it and rip it apart.

"There's too much fog, I can't see a thing. We have to get rid of it Li."

"Try using the windy card."

"Alright."

Sakura pulled out her card and tossed it in the air hitting it with her wand. A giant gust of wind blew past them.

"Windy release and dispel! Blow away all the mist!"

The wind began to pick up and swirl around them pushing the mist back clearing a path for Li and Sakura.

"It worked!"

"No it didn't."

"What are you-"

Sakura gazed around to see the mist was pushing her wind back until it died down all together the card reappearing in her hands.

"Quickly get on!"

Li and Sakura turned to see Ryuu sei kneeling down before them her wings spread out. Li jumped on helping Sakura up; when both were safely on her back Ryuu sei leapt off into the sky climbing as high as possible but not matter how high she climbed the mist would cover them up.

"It's no use we can't out run it."

"Then we'll have to stand and fight."

"No master that is what he wants. Your training is not complete you can't fight him now."

Before they could stop him Li leapt off of Ryuu sei's back. As he fell towards the ground he spread out his arms then quickly pulled them back in closing his eyes.

"LI!"

His eyes snapped open and a huge whirlwind swept under him gently resting him on the rooftop. He stood ready, sword out and eyes scanning the mist before him.

Amaya raced towards her master hoping she would make it in time. She arrived in time to watch the inky blobs pounce on her master and swallow him up.

She heard a cry and glanced up, the young Clow mistress was sitting on Ryuu sei's back with Keroberous defending them from the blobs and black vines. Angry she roared her eyes glowing green as she lunged at the inky blob encasing her master.

Yue saw the dark purple cloud that hung over the building hiding the roof from his view. Inside he could make out his mistresses figure and Keroberous. He flew inside towards them destroying as many of the vines and blobs that he could.

When he made it to his master's side he saw Amaya below him she was ripping apart one of the blobs, it's black mass flying everywhere. He saw she had created a small hole and was digging something out.

`The boy, he must be trapped inside the blob.'

His ice blue eyes narrowed as he watched as half her body disappear then he saw the young boy's body being tossed out.

Li rolled along the rooftop before stopping and standing up. Taking a few deep breaths he looked up to see Amaya struggling with the blob that had latched onto her body.

She was roaring her claws ripping away at their gooey bodies. They fell apart only to reassemble and latch onto her again slowly covering her body.

Amaya was getting angry no matter how many she sliced they would always come back. She was also unable to move her wings the blobs having wrapped around them and attached to the ground. It felt like she was covered in gum.

She glanced over to see her master was fine and that Ryuu sei had come down to join him. She glanced away and began to fight back only to have the blobs constrict around her making her cry out.

"Stay away!" she shouted when she noticed her master coming towards her.

"Amaya stop fooling around use your magick." Said Ryuu sei as she sliced at a blob heading for Li.

"I can't * growls * I might hurt * muffled sounds *"

Ryuu sei glances over to see the giant inky blob had swallowed up Amaya and she could sense her master's anger. But what is surprising is the low growl that escaped the moon guardian's lips.

She turned to see his eyes were glowing an eerie blue and he was letting off a tremendous amount of magic. Before Li could do anything Yue flew forwards and slashed at the blob with his hand a blue energy ring ripping through it exposing Amaya's head.

Yue turned around to attack again when Amaya roared and a giant green light bursts forth splattering the inky blobs off her body. He looked a little stunned by how much power she has and at the same time relieved that she's all right.

Angry Amaya stalked forwards her wings snapping out to their full width. A low growl escaping her lips as she flexed her claws, her tail swishing back and forth showing her agitation. She cocks her head to the side listening then vanishes right before everyone's eyes.

`Amaya you baka, you must learn to control that temper. You are letting the demon inside take over.'

Ryuu sei kept her gaze trained on the sky above them, it was flashing green and purple. Then with our warning the mist began to fade away and a large black ball with wings came hurdling towards them. They managed to jump out of the way as it crashed to the ground.

"Ryuu sei."

She looked at her master before going over to him. She stood beside him her green shield in place ready for an attack. When all the mist was gone Sakura and the others spotted a figure in the sky above them.

"Li look over there!" shouted Sakura as she pointed up to the figure.

"I see you have all come, good it makes it easier to kill you all at once." Said the figure

"Hn."

Li positioned his sword ready to fight when a green energy arrow whipped past them and struck the figure. He glanced over to see Amaya floating somewhat and pulling back another arrow.

"You again? How annoying, I guess I'll have to make sure you die." Said the figure as it launched an energy ball at Amaya.

She shot her arrow the two colliding with each other giving off a huge blast pushing the others back.

When the smoke cleared the dark figure was still standing and Amaya was nowhere to be seen.

"Amaya…" whispered Yue as he stared at the spot where she was a moment ago.

"One down and five to go. I think I'll start with you."

He grinned and turned towards Sakura laughing when her eyes widened slightly. He twitched his hand a thousands of black vines appeared out of thin air and headed straight for Sakura.

"Look out!" shouted Li as he raced towards Sakura pushing her out of the way just as the vines struck the spot where she had been standing.

Keroberous roared as he leapt into the air hurling a huge fireball at the dark figure. It struck the figure but the flames didn't even seem to burn it instead they seemed to be disappearing.

He hurled another one at him and the same thing happened the flames disappearing as soon as they touched the figure.

"Stop! It's feeding off your magick." Shouted Ryuu sei as she clawed at the vines making their way towards her master and the young girl.
