I did that so well, that now it doesn't qualify for the mailing list the challenge was placed on. Thanks to miki_blue, my Kero-chan, for the description of Kero looking intent. He really doesn't have much expression, does he? I don't know where the icy card came from and don't even know if it is really one of the Clow Cards, but as a friend said, "If Clow could make cards, why aren't there other decks out there, too?" It leaves infinate possabilities for the cards she can use... __________________________________________________________ Card Captured by miai ---------------------------------------------------------- All characters in this fanfiction belong to CLAMP.

She was beautiful. Respelendant in the crimson robe and short skirt, Sakura was a vision through the lense. "Ah, I knew it would look so good!" Sakura seemed to sweat-drop, "I still don't know what I am supposed to be," she said lookind doubtfully at the gold balls at the end of her black and crimson shoes. "Since Clow was Chinese, you are one of his retainers." "Tomoyo-chan I don't think that makes any sense..." Sakura started, but she stopped speaking as Tomoyo sighed and the red light on top of the camer turned on. She turned around as Tomoyo held out a finger and turned it in the air. "Sakura-chan is so cute." Sakura laughed half-heartedly, "Well, I guess I should go find that card." "Yes," Kero-chan intoned wisely, lowering his eyebrow in an attempt to put a serious look on his otherwise expressionless face, "A card must not be left on the loose." "Uhn." Sakura's hair bounced as she nodded. They moved through the bushes left of the bike path in the park, Sakura bending low and Kero-chan on her shoulder. Tomoyo held back to get a side view of the action. "There!" Kero small voice was strained with his shout. "I've got it." "Careful, Arrest acts as an attack card!" "Powers of Darkness hidden within this card, obey me!" Tomoyo held her breath and moved closer. While this was one of her favorite parts of Sakura's job, the phraze she used to transform the key into a batton sounded evil. Tomoyo feared that some day there would be a price for using these "powers of darkness." "Release!" Sakura's keychain floated and grew before her. The three saw a lock and key floating in the air. It glowed an eiry blue and changed into a small girl draped in chains. The little elf's blue hair sparkeled irridecently as she laughed and nodded towards the Card Captor and her onterage. Suddenly a chain lept out at Tomoyo. She screamed, but bravely steadied her camera. She brought the lense up to her eye and saw Sakura's horrified face. "I shouldn't have been thinking about consequences, Sakura-chan. I am so sorry." "I have no idea what you're talking about," Sakura looked as though she would cry, "but I can't let this card hurt you!" "Sakura-chan's so brave..." Spinning her baton in the air she brought the elongated wand behind her head and brought it down towards the card with all her might. "Return to your true form, Clow..." The card sent out another chain, this time catching Sakura's hands on the baton. The card laughed and Tomoyo and Sakura found themselves very close to one another. "Oof," Sakura undaintaly complained as she hit the ground, protecting Tomoyo with her own body. "I'm so sorry, Sakura-chan," Tomoyo said quickly and started to get of the darker girl. She stopped as Sakura's hand followed her. "Oh, no!" Kero-chan yelled unnecessarily, "It got you!" Looking at their hands Sakura realized that the chains had become silver handcuffs with intricate hearts around the odd locks. The girls looked at each other and at the handcuffs on their wrists. Pulling at them didn't help. Neither did trying to use the small Clow Key. "I think I had better call my mother," Tomoyo did not look upset as she dialed her dainty pink cel phone. "Mom, This is Tomoyo. Sakura-chan has asked me to spend the night at her house. Please call me if it is not alright. I will be at the Kinomoto house." "Good, now we have all night to think of a way out of this." Kero-chan said with great enthusiasm. "Your father won't mind, will he Sakura-chan." "No. It's so late he doesn't even realize I am not right now." ************ Sakura looked at the tree she usually used to climb in and out of her room when she went on her night time escapades. Tomoyo would not be able to manage that tree, even without being hampered by her purse, video camera and Sakura. They tiptoed up the front path, quietly discussing which card could be used to avoid this situation. As Sakura put her hand on the front knob it opened. "What is the monster doing out at this time of night?" Kero-chan fell to the ground with a soft thud. Tomoyo stooped to pick him up, pulling Sakura's trapped hand behind the taller girl. "O-older brother!! Guess what we were video taping a scene for the movie Tomoyo was making!" "In the middle of the night?" He asked increduously. "The scene was very important. We needed to have the park lit up behind me." "Ah, Sakura-chan. What a cute outfit!" Yukito smiled from behind her brother. "Tomoyo made the costume herself," Sakura said quickly, Pushing fabric over her wirst. Tomoyo blushed behind her and stepped closer, maintaining a polite distance, but allowing for the almost natural use of her hands. Concidering the problems if Sakura was found wearing the lovely costume Tomoyo had created, this was going rather well. "Uh, she called her mother and asked if she could stay with me tonight, since it is so late and we don't have school tomarrow..." Sakura started sneaking past her brother, Tomoyo close behind. "You take that toy everywhere." He looked at Kero closely. "Everyone has a favorite toy, right Sakura-chan?" Yukito covered for her. "I have a bunny rabbit your brother won me at the carnival last year." Touya blushed and Yukito continued. "We were taking a study break for some tea and cake. He bent towards the girls. Would you like some?" "Yes!" Came a little voice near Tomoyo. "I would like that very much, thank you," Tomoyo said with great care and a little happy accent she did not usually display. "But, it's so late, I think we should just get up to bed..." Sakura said with a look of concideration. "Goodnight," Yukito waved and smiled. "Goodnight," Sakura blushed. "Have a pleasent rest," Tomoyo bowed on her way up the stairs. *************** "Sakura-chan looked so cute talking to Yukito-san. I wish I could have taped it," Tomoyo tried to lift her left hand to her cheek, but was stopped by the weight of another arm on the same wrist. "I love it when Yukito sleeps over." Sakura said whistfully while trying to avoid Tomoyo's large eyes. Kero-chan flew into Sakura's field of vision, crying, "We could have had cake!!" Sakura ignored him and moved to take off her jacket. When it caught on Tomoyo she shrugged back into the warm velvet. She gestured to Tomoyo that she wanted to move across the room and began laying out Clow cards on the floor. "Kero-chan, how long do the effects of a card last when the card isn't in the area?" Kero crossed his stubby arms and put a paw under his chin, "It depends on the strength of the card. Arest isn't really a stong card without a will behind it." "So you mean someone wants us to be trapped together?" "Maybe. Who knows?" Kero shrugged. "You are the Guardian Beast Ceroburus! You are supposed to know these things." "Yeah, but time changes everything." Kero shrugged. "Wah!" "Sakura-chan. It is very late and your father is still sleeping, even if your brother is not." Tomoyo looked at the door with concern. "Yeah, and the important thing is to makes sure we get the card before that kid does." Kero yelled from the far side of the room. A knock on the door made the girls jump closer together and cover their arms while at the same time keeping their bodies in front of the cards. "Yes?" Sakura frightened voice asked. "Yuki wanted to bring you some cake anyway." Touya almost excused himself as he opened the door. "It's not good to go to bed hungry," Yukito added as he move into the room behind the strong Kinomoto heir. "Th-thank you." Sakura stammered. She realized her brother was waiting for her to take the tray from him, but she could not move from her spot. "You can put it down on the bed. We will be very careful not to spill." Touya put the tray down where indicated and looked at the room. "What are those?" He was pointing behind the girls, at the clow cards. Both girls moved out of the way and Sakura started laughing. "We are using them in the movie!" When Touya did not respond and actually moved closer, bending down, Sakura laughed uneasily. "Maki-san sells them they are wish cards." "In the movie they really do grant wishes," Tomoyo added. "Yeah, I jumped off a bench in front of King Penguin after wishing on the Jump card and then we will use Tomoyo-chan's video editing equipment to make it look like I jump over the slide!" Her laugh was frantic after this last sentence. "Oh," Yukito began, "like the picture of you lifting King Penguin! You would have to have magic or very good editing equipment to do so much work." "I enjoy filming Sakura-san," Tomoyo said simply. "I put an extra piece of cake on the plate. It has been so long since dinner," Yukito looked at the elementary students and smiled so large his eyes dissappeared. "Thank you," They said together. "Goodnight," Yukito pulled Touya's sleeve and closed the door behind them. "Whew!" Sakura sank to the floor. "Cake!" Kero cheered. "Cake! Cake! Cake!!" He flew over to the tray and grabed the extra spoon, looking thoughtful. "Why did he put an extra spoon, too?" "Yukito-san is very conciderate," Tomoyo smiled and led Sakura to the cake. "What we need to do is break the lock...I know!" He hit one small paw against the other. "Put some tea in the lock and use the Icy card to make it expand. That should break it." "Great idea Kero-chan!" Sakura released the key and Tomoyo put a spoonfull of tea into the lock on Sakura's wrist. Reaching behind her, Sakura pulled the Icy off the ground and ordered it to freeze the water in the tea with only knocking Kero once with her baton twirling. The lock cracked with a noise that was sure to bring her brother bakc, so Sakura quickly repeated the process on Tomoyo's wrist as well. When the lock broke the card appeared from the silver remains. It turned into it's human form and began running at Tomoyo. The sallow girl ran into the farthest corner of the room and Sakura whispered, "Turn back to your original form...Clow Card" bringing the beak-shaped end of her pink stick down on a card. The door opened and Touya stuck his head in, Yukito close behind, peering over his shoulder. Tomoyo had her video camera up and softly said "Cut." As the protective elder Kinomoto sibling looked around at the upturned furnature and half-eaten cake. Sakura put an hand behind her head and twirled her baton, giving an embarrased laugh. "We just need to edit it all now..." "The little guy was hungry, wasn't he?" Yukito asked pressing past Touya to examine the cake on Kero-chan's face. "Oh, no, I accidentally got some on Kero-chan!" Sakura quickly picked up the "stuffed toy" and brushed the cake off his face with a napkin. "Ah," Yukito smiled. "We heard the noise and thought there was something wrong." "Dad worked late tonight he needs his sleep." Touya glared at the doll in his sisters hands. "We promise to be quiet," Sakura whispered, pushing the boys out of her room. Tomoyo helped Sakura out of her crimson overcoat, "That was close." "Ah, just in time, I need to use the restroom!" Sakura nearly forgot to be quiet in her run down the hallway. Tomoyo taped her the whole way, then looked at Kero-chan. "Sakura-san is so entergitic." Her hand moved to her face and a dreamy look came to her eyes. Kero waved his paw in front of her face and groaned, "This girl and that one..." ___________________________________________________________________ That's it!
