Card Captor Sakura Fan Fiction ❯ The council of clow ❯ Flashback ( Chapter 3 )

[ P - Pre-Teen ]
Flashback
Seoul, South Korea
Quarter way through season one

Heavy rain poured upon Eli, wearing his blue robe. The road ahead of him was like a war zone with the building beside the road shattered. The streets were deserted, with no sign of life anywhere.

Eli slowly walked along the road, staff in hand. He was not afraid yet was not going to let his guard down. It was too quiet for him.

Eli (Shouts): Show yourself Minko!

The ground suddenly trembled as if on cue. Eli turns around to find a large natural pillar forming with a young woman perched on top. The woman had medium brown hair and dark eyes. Her skin was pale and colourless. She wears a black battle garb and holds a black staff with two red stars at each end.

Eli: Minko Kao, your reign of terror is over!

Minko: What reign? I haven't even started to show my true powers. All I have done was flatten this small segment of Seoul, to send a message to the county that I am their new ruler.

Eli: Because of you, you have endangered people, destroyed people and broke the dynasty's code. I should never have chosen you to take my place.

Minko: Why, afraid you will not wake up. You are losing your powers to your puny candidate, you never was as strong as you are past life. Once I have dealt with you, i will take what is mine, your powers and the clow cards.

Eli: Leave Sakura out of this, she knows nothing about you or me.

Minko raises her staff and as the stars on the staff glowed...

Minko: Remind me to tell her then.

She lets out a blot of dark energy at Eli. He casts a defence shield to deflect the attack.

Eli: Even if I shouldn't have disobeyed the council by searching for a second candidate. I will leave here with the mistake... defeated.

Minko: Fool... you can't defeat me.

She jumps down from the pillar and they both engaged in melee combat. Both of them managed to parry and evade each other's blow.

Minko: You are too weak to defeat me... just like your candidate.

Eli was getting tired... he did not have the strength as he used to have and now he was endangering his health.

Eli: Maybe... I don't... have... the strength... to defeat you.... now

Raising his staff

Eli: But I can seal you away!

His magic circle appeared and yellow beams shot out of his staff. The beams go round Minko's arms and legs then sprout out to form a cube like structure around her. Minko gasped in pain as she was tied and encased into this arcane cell. The “cell” arcane powers drained and jammed Minko's powers making her unable to use her magic. Then mist forms from the bottom of the “cell” freezing her body into place. As it was about to freeze her head into place she boosts.

Minko: You know this cell won't hold me Eli. I will break out of this cell and i will take what is rightfully mine!

With that she was frozen into limbo. Eli then used his magic to send it plummeting into the ground. He eliminated the threat, but at a great cost to his health. He limps his way to the alleyways, hiding from the police that was arriving. Saying before he passed out.

Eli: How could have I been... so foolish.
