A man walked down the street of the town. He wore a black cloak and had a pack on his back. Suddenly a bright light flashed before him. He abruptly stopped as he was momentarily blinded. After about five seconds he attempted to open his eyes and found that he had stumbled into an alley. He turned to leave only to find his way blocked by a great hulk of a man. Glancing behind him, the man in black found another man of slighter build than his companion.

"Give up," the slighter man sneered.

Without another thought, only knowing that he had to escape, the man in black swiftly reached beneath his cloak and brought out a necklace. He mumbled some words and all of a sudden a bright glow surrounded him and the object in his hand grew. When the glow had died down the man in black was holding a staff about seven feet high.

Knowing he had to get the staff the larger man lunged at the man in black. The man in black sidestepped the great hulk and grabbed the end of his staff with his other hand. In one fluid motion, the staff was transformed into a long whip. He cracked the whip at the two men and began backing out of the alley slowly. When he had taken only three steps, the man in black encountered an obstacle. A massive arm wrapped around his throat and wrenched the hand with the whip around behind his back.

"You will never escape again," the slighter man said as he punched the man in black in the stomach making him drop the whip and recoil in pain. The man who had grabbed him from behind dropped him heavily to the ground, and he heard a crack as pain shot up his leg. The whip was kicked out of his reach. The second man walked over and kicked the man in black in the side making him whimper in pain. The slighter man leaned down and turned his face so that their eyes met. Then he said with a sneer, "the master will enjoy punishing you."

Just then a bright light flashed from the street and the three men turned to see who would dare interfere with them. The largest man's feet suddenly left the ground as a silver angel-looking man grabbed his shoulders and flew him over a trash pile, where the larger man was dumped. Then a large, golden, lion-looking creature pounced on the second man. He hit the ground with a thud and was knocked unconscious. The slighter man looked up to see a dark man in long robes standing at the end of the alley. The angel and the lion flew back to his side as he raised his staff and muttered a few words. Suddenly a powerful wind blew and picked up the three men and they were flown away to an unknown destination.

Meanwhile, the man in black was crawling the best he could to reach his whip-staff. He tried his best to ignore the pain in his ankle and the ache in his side. He reached out, grabbed the whip, and flipped around; ready to defend against whatever else wanted him.

The dark man stood at the end of the alley, the angel and the lion on either side of him. "Don't worry, we won't hurt you. It looks like you need some help."

The man in black just looked at him, unsure whether to trust him or not. From the look in his eyes he seemed to be a kind man, but the man in black had been tricked before and would not fall for any tricks. He did need help and decided to trust this man, if only for long enough to get healed and escape.

"I. . . my ankle is broken. . . and. . . I can't get up. . ." his voice trailed off as the dark man just nodded and motioned to the angel next to him.

The angel stepped, or rather floated, over to the man in black. He instinctively drew the whip up to his chest and the angel stopped.

"Don't worry, there is no need for anyone else to get hurt. You can put that remarkable weapon away now." The dark man proclaimed.

The man in black used the little bit of magic he had left to shrink the whip-staff back to its compact size. The angel walked over and knelt down. In one fell swoop he lifted the man in black into his arms and walked back towards the dark man.

The dark man spoke to the angel; "put him in one of the guest rooms and we will be there shortly." With that, the angel lifted off of the ground, the man in black in his arms, and flew away from the alley.

"What do you think they wanted from him master?" the lion said to the dark man.

"I don't know, but we must be on guard just in case they come back for him."

"Why are we keeping him safe?"

"We will do everything we can for him, because I believe he will play a major role in the future."

The flight took about ten minutes, and by that time the man in black had fallen asleep, most likely from the pain he must be experiencing from the beating he had received.

Yue flew to a balcony on the second floor of his master's mansion. He opened the glass doors and stepped inside. He carefully laid the man in black on the bed and proceeded to remove his brown shoes, the pack and the black cloak that was now covered in filth from the alley where the man had been found and rescued by himself, Keroberos, and his master, Clow Reed.

Beneath the cloak, Yue found the man had long, dark red hair that reached to just above his waist and was tied back with a length of dark green cloth. The man's robe was a dark emerald with a gold outline on the collar and sleeves.

Yue pulled the sheets on the bed down and set the man upon the mattress. While he waited for his master, Yue couldn't help but notice how pretty the man looked with the moonlight filtering in from the open balcony doors. His features seemed to be enhanced, the way his eyelashes rested on his delicate cheekbones. The way his lips were slightly parted as he slept and how his chest rose and fell as he breathed. He was just so. . .

Yue heard a door below close. He walked out the door until he stood at the top of the stairs and looked down to see his master and his brother.

"How is he doing?" Clow asked as he looked up to see Yue standing at the top of the stairs.

"He is sleeping," Yue stated simply. Clow was used to Yue's simply answers that seemed to have no emotion behind them. Clow knew better than to expect anything else from his moon guardian, but he knew that behind that cold façade there was more.

Clow walked up the stairs and followed Yue to the room that the man had been put in. Yue walked into the room and made room for his master. As Clow walked in he saw that Yue had taken care of the man's pack and cloak and had placed them on the chair in the room. He walked over to the bed and looked at the man's ankle. Clow pulled out his staff and a card and said a few words the card glowed and out flew a little girl with wings and a small wand. She flew over the man and light sparkled down to put the man into an even deeper sleep.

When the small girl returned to her card state, there was a knock on the front door. Yue left his master with the man and went to see whom it was. Keroberus opened the door and the man followed him inside as he closed the door. The man carried a black bag and followed Keroberus as he led the way up the stairs. Yue recognized the man as the town doctor and allowed the two of them to pass by while he followed along. Clow greeted the doctor and showed him the man. Yue and Keroberus just waited outside in the hallway while the doctor took care of the man's wounds.

Approximately thirty minutes later the doctor left the mansion and Yue and Keroberus looked into the room. Clow had just risen from the chair and the guardians could see that the man was covered with the blankets.

Clow looked toward his guardians, "He will be just fine as long as he rests and stays off that ankle. Now let's let him rest," he said while shooing the two guardians down the hall. They glided down the stairs and towards the library. Yue assumed his normal position curled up on the bench in front of the window, picking up the book he was presently reading, while Keroberus lay stretched out in front of the fireplace. Clow walked in and coaxed the embers in the fireplace to life while putting in more kindling.

A/N: O.K. this was my very first fic ever. I had to repost it because of the new guidelines on ff.net. It sucks that no more NC-17 fics will be allowed and anyone that complained should have just not clicked on anything that said NC-17 or lemon.
Please Read + Review!!! Thank you!
