Okay, so not a lot of time had passed, since me and Sakura, had captured and sealed the Dream Card over at Tokyo Tower. And though neither of us knew it yet, that very tower, was going to wind up playing a very vital role in our futures with regard to the Clow Cards. But this, would not wind up coming into play until several more weeks at least into the future. But as for the current moment, me, Sakura, and Li as well, were currently in the courtyard at Tomoeda Elementary School. And the reason for this, was the three of us, were currently rehearsing our respective lines for an upcoming play that we were due to perform in about a couple days time.
And as for our lines. Well about that exact thing...
"As I do believe...Oh right, Zachary here again viewers...sorry about that...But I do think, that in order to help you viewers understand what our respective lines are supposed to be...We must first, wind the clock back so too speak, to earlier in the day...So viewers, shall we?"
Okay, so winding the events of the day back to earlier in the school day. Ms. MacKenzie, was about to use an ingenious way, to help select the characters, for our upcoming play, which happened to be Sleeping Beauty. And though I did not know it at the time, me, Sakura, as well as Li, were going to wind up playing key roles in this particular school play.
And with regard to that...
"Okay, so it is decided, Li will be the Princess, Sakura will be the prince, and Zachary will be the King," Ms. MacKenzie said. Which upon hearing my role, I was a bit shocked to hear this. As while it wasn't one of the more prominent roles, it was more due to the fact, that I sometimes was prone to having stage fright, back in my life in the real world. And interestingly enough, this fact had actually not changed when I wound up in the Cardcaptors anime timeline.
But, given what was still to happen to me, Sakura, and Li, this was going to wind up being the least of my problems.
But, getting back to the current situation back in the present...
"Sakura lookout, behind you!" I now proceeded to say, as a giant wave of what appeared to be sand, now seemed to appear out of nowhere, and then attempted to try and engulf the three of us.
"Are you serious right now?! Sand?! Why'd it have to be sand!? Oh right, Zachary here again...And yes viewers...that was an indirect Indiana Jones reference...But anyway back to the current situation."
And getting back to the situation...
"Key of Clow, power of magic, power of light, surrender the wand, the force ignite, release!" Me and Sakura proceeded to chant in unison. As we proceeded to pull out our keys, and about a second later, the circle of the seal of Clow, appeared under both me and Sakura. And just like all the previous times, the wind proceeded to pick up around me and Sakura. And both of our respective staffs, expanded into their usual full size. And upon both of us then proceeding to quickly grab them with a quick and reflexive overhanded and downward grab. We then proceeded to twirl our respective staffs, and then struck a pose each.
And not even a second later...
"Fly!" Me and Sakura proceeded to chant in unison, as I proceeded to quickly pull out the Fly Card, and then threw it forward. And as me and Sakura quickly raised our respective staffs, we then swung them down at a tremendous speed, and hit the Fly Card at the exact same time, with the tips of our respective staffs. And a split second later, the wings of the Fly Card, proceeded to adorn the bird like heads of our respective staffs.
And once we had mounted our respective now winged staffs, and Li jumped onto Sakura's staff along with her. The three of us managed to lift off of the ground, and away from the wall of sand, just as it proceeded to hit the ground where the three of us once stood.
And as me, Sakura, and L continuously flew across the school grounds on both of our respective winged staffs, whilst proceeding to dodge the huge wave of sand that seemed to chase after us with malign intent. I then got an idea, that would allow us to seal the Clow Card. Which given that it was in the form of sand, we didn't really need Kero to tell us what the Clow Card in question was. As it was clearly the Sand Card, or more the Sand Card spirit.
And it was only once I had told Sakura and Li about my idea, to use the Water Card to saturate the sand. And to have Li help out by using the Freeze Card. The three of us then finally touched back down on the ground, on a bare piece of the area of the courtyard, that was at least somewhat of a distance away from the currently rapidly approaching sand of the Sand Card spirit.
And it was only then, that I proceeded to pull out the Water Card, and me and Sakura then proceeded to raise our respective staffs. "Water Card, come to our aid, use your water to saturate the sand! Water, release and dispel!" Me and Sakura proceeded to chant in unison, as we proceeded to hit the Water Card at the exact same time, with the tips of our respective staffs. Which was followed by the appearance of the Water Card spirit only a split second later. And at the exact same time, Li used his Jian, to help call forth the Freeze Card spirit. Which he managed to do, by holding his Jian upside down with both of his hands, and then slammed the tip of his Jian against the the Freeze Card.
And, once the sand form of the Sand Card spirit, was then saturated, as well as frozen solid by the Freeze Card spirit, me and Sakura, then proceeded to raise our respective staffs, in order to seal the Sand Card spirit, before it wound up deciding to break free again.
"Sand Card, we command you to return to your power confined, Sand!" Me and Sakura chanted in unison, as we proceeded to swing our respective staffs down at exactly the same time. And once the Sand Card spirit was sucked into both of our respective card halves, that had materialized on the tips of our respective staffs. And once both hard halves had then combined into a complete clow card, the Sand Card was captured and sealed.
But, even though it wound up landing in Sakura's hands. She had decided for some reason, to let Li have it instead. But rather then ask Sakura, as to why she had chosen to let Li have it, I decided not to pry. And I instead decided to appreciate the fact that the three of us had managed to capture another clow card. But none of us would realize at the time, that this was only the beginning of what was lying in store for us.
