Going In Almost Completely Blind

"Oh no, it's the dream again," I thought. It was then that both me and Sakura noticed a small boy dressed in green robes, with a sword in one hand, leaping off one of the buildings opposite me and Sakura, as we once again were having the dream of us facing Tokyo Tower, with our staffs clenched in our hands. "That boy, oh no, HE'S GOT THE CLOW CARDS!" I thought out loud to myself. It was then that we heard Kero's voice calling out to me. "Zachary, Sakura, wake up!"

It was then that me and Sakura opened our eyes.

"Good morning Zachary, good morning Sakura," Kero said in a cheery voice.

"You know Kero, I keep having the same strange weird dream over and over again," I said to Kero.

"Really, what happened?" Kero asked me.

"Well, me and Sakura were on a building facing this radio tower, and then we saw this kid, dressed in green robes, and he had the clow cards," I explained to Kero.

A little later, in the classroom at school, Madison, me, and Sakura were talking about Madison's new video camera, when the teacher came in.

"Alright class, please take your seats," Mr. Terada said. And with that, all of the students went to their desks and sat down, Madison sat in front of Sakura, and I sat to the right of Sakura.

"We have a new exchange student, Li Showron," Mr. Terada said.

It was then that the door to the classroom slid open and a young boy with brown chestnut hair walked in. It was then that me and Sakura recognized his face, he was the exact same kid from our dream. Li kept looking in the direction of me and Sakura and never took his eyes off us.

"That new kid is staring at you," Madison whispered to me and Sakura.

"Alright Li, where shall we seat you, how about the seat behind Sakura and to the left of Zachary." It was then that me and Sakura gulped and looked to the empty seat behind Sakura and to the left of me. Li then walked up to Sakura, and gazed at her, and then he turned to me and did the same thing before setting down his school bag on his desk and taking a seat behind Sakura. "I don't trust Li at all, and if he thinks he's going to harm Sakura, then he's gravely mistaken," I thought to myself.

A little later, in the school courtyard, Sakura was busy minding her own business when Li came up to her, pulled out a weird star shaped board and said. "Source of light with ancient spin, send forth the magic power within. Oracles of Gold, Wood, Fire, Earth, Cloud, Wind, Rain, and Electricity! Force know my plight: Release the light!" A few seconds later, a light blue stream of light shot out from the board and towards Sakura.

"It is you! You do have them!" Li said, jumping backwards, and waving the board in a right hand sweeping motion, while whipping up wind from the sweeping motion, and dust from the ground in the process.

"I...have...what?" Sakura asked with a very shocked look on her face.

"What do you think this is Chinese Checkers, its a Lasin Board! It knows all, Clow Cards!" Li said, to which he followed up by holding out his hand in a demanding manner and tone.

"Even if I did have them, what makes you think I would give them to you?" Sakura asked, still stunned from Li's demand.

Meanwhile, a few yards across the courtyard from where Li and Sakura were having their fight, I was just walking around, when I saw Li demanding to Sakura that she give him the Clow Cards. "I knew it, Li is after the Clow Cards, but he made a slight error, he has no right to talk to Sakura that way! Does he really think that he can demand something from her, and she is just going to willingly hand it over? Not if I have anything to say about it!" I thought to myself.

Meanwhile, Li was trying to take the Clow Cards from her, well almost all of them, when I ran towards them, and stopped right in between Li and Sakura.

"I suggest you leave Sakura alone before I really get annoyed," I said to Li in a serious tone of voice.

"Who are you to question me on how I treat her?" Li asked.

"Because I'm her brother, and to be honest, if I were you Li, I would do the honorable thing here, and back off!" I said, now having raised my voice slightly.

"I don't care if you're her brother, just hand me the clow cards that each of your have and I will be on my way!" Li said in a demanding voice.

"Listen Li, you have no right to speak to Sakura in that tone, and if I even catch you within a few yards of her, then I will take whatever measures necessary to protect her from you!" I said while spreading my arms out to protect Sakura.

"Fine, then I'll do everything I can to capture the Clow Cards before you and Sakura do," Li said with a cocky smirk.

"Well, we will just have to see about that then, won't we Li?" I said, as Li turned around to leave.

"Thank you for protecting me Zachary, if you hadn't have intervened, I would've been in serious trouble," Sakura said to me.

"No problem Sakura, because after all, that's what siblings do, they protect each other," I said to Sakura with a smile.

A little later, after me and Sakura's confrontation with Li in the school's courtyard, and after the school day ended, we were walking home when a storm rolled in. Madison, Sakura and I decided to take shelter in Penguin Park.

A little later, at home, I explained to Kero about Li and how he had tried to take the Clow Cards from Sakura.

"Expect the unexpected Zachary," Kero said.

"That's it?" Sakura asked in a confused tone.

"Look Zachary, you and Sakura are Cardcaptors now, and there is going to be a few 'bumps' along the way, both you and Sakura have been chosen to get the Clow Cards back, so that's what both of you should be worried about, not some snot nosed brat," Kero said.

"Okay Kero, I understand," I said in response.

Though I was still having some time processing how things had gone with Li and Sakura during our fight in the courtyard.

"Man that Li really is an arrogant one, isn't he?" I thought to myself.

It was then that my blue cell phone rang, I then went to the desk, and answered it.

"Hello, this is Zachary speaking," I said. "Zachary, you and Sakura have to look outside," Madison said.

"You two have some cards to capture," Madison added in.

It was then that me and Sakura went to the window and pulled up the blinds, we were shocked to see that the sky was very cloudy and a lot of thunder could be heard off in the distance.

"I guess we do," Sakura said.

A little later, me and Sakura were dressed in our battle costumes. Sakura sported an outfit that looked like a certain pink haired cat superhero magical girl from another magical girl anime. And I was dressed in a similar outfit. Mind you, the outfit was light blue, and didn't have a skirt. Instead, I simply wore a light blue leotard. A few seconds later, a bolt of thunder shot out of the clouds and started hopping from building to building.

It was then that me and Sakura pulled out our respective keys.

"Oh key of clow, power of magic, power of light, surrender the wand, the force ignite, RELEASE!" we both chanted in unison.

With our respective staffs now in hand, I pulled out the Fly Card.

"Lets fly!" I said as we tapped the Fly Card at exactly the same time with our respective staffs. And once again, our staffs grew wings, and we took off into the sky.

After about a minute of flying around, me and Sakura landed on top a building, and then, the bolt of thunder came towards me and Sakura. "Jump Card!" Me and Sakura chanted.

"Here goes," I said, as we tapped the Jump Card at exactly the same time with our staffs.

A few seconds later, little wings appeared on our shoes and we just managed to dodge the bolt of thunder in time to escaped harm.

"That was a close one," Sakura said.

"I completely agree with that statement," I said to Sakura in response.

After a few minutes of dodging the bolt of thunder, we managed to jump onto a house and at least get some time to rest from all the jumping and dodging.

"Okay Kero, what do we do now?" Sakura asked.

"You two really are pathetic," said a familiar voice.

It was then that me and Sakura looked to our left to see Li dressed in the exact same outfit from our dream.

Li then removed his Jian from his sheath. "Force know my plight, RELEASE THE LIGHT! LIGHTNING!" Li chanted.

A few seconds later, a shot of lightning went from the tip of Li's sword right towards the bolt of thunder. A few seconds after the bolt of thunder was hit by Li's spell, the bolt of thunder fell down to a nearby building, and materialized into its true form.

"That's Thunder's physical form?" Sakura asked.

"You are looking at Raiju the Thunder Beast, boy, you really are hopeless," Li said.

"Hey, back off Li, you have no right to talk to Sakura that way, or did you forget how things went the last time you did that?!" I said to Li in an annoyed tone of voice.

It was then that I pulled out the Shadow Card, I then turned to Sakura, who nodded, then, both of us then raised our staffs.

"Shadow Card, encircle Thunder and bind it, RELEASE AND DISPEL!" we both chanted in unison.

A few seconds later, the Shadow Card appeared, a few seconds after that, the Thunder Card was ensnared by The Shadow Card.

It was then that me and Sakura once again raised our staffs.

"Thunder Card, we command you to return to your power confined, THUNDER CARD!" we both chanted, as we swung our respective staffs down at exactly the same time. A few seconds later, the Thunder Card was captured.

"Boy, you two really don't have a clue, do you?" Li said in a taunting tone of voice.

"Didn't I specifically tell you not to talk to Sakura that way!?" I said to Li in an very irritated tone of voice.

"How about you worry about what you need to improve on next time, and I'll continue to ignore you!" Li said, once again in a taunting tone of voice.

"Li, I'm warning you right now, don't push me!" I said to Li, now raising my voice even more, and still annoyed from Li's taunt.

"I don't need to, I've already done what I came here to do, so I'll leave you two alone, for now!" Li said, turning to leave.

It was then that I turned to Sakura.

"I'm really sorry you had to see that," I said to Sakura.

"It's alright Zachary, because its just like you said, siblings protect each other," Sakura said to me with a smile.

"Thanks Sakura," I said giving her a hug.

"You're very welcome Zachary," Sakura replied returning the hug.
