Going In Almost Completely Blind

The next morning, at school, after me and Sakura had captured the Thunder Card, me and Sakura were walking up the stairs to class when Madison caught up with us. "Hey Zachary, hey Sakura, wait up," Madison said while she ran up the stairs. "Oh, hey Madison," Sakura said. "You two had quite the interesting card capture last night," Madison said. "Yea, but I'm still very irritated from Li making that smug remark towards Sakura." I said. "But, you still were able to capture the Thunder Card with the Shadow Card," Madison said with a smile. "I know that Sakura and I really want to get good at being Cardcaptors, but this still all seems so new to us," I said in a somewhat depressed sounding tone of voice. "Don't worry Zachary, I'm sure you and Sakura will get used to it soon," Madison said with a smile. "I guess you're right," I said in response, as I then closed my eyes and smiled at Madison.

A little later, in the classroom, me, Madison, and Sakura were just talking to each other when Li entered the classroom. "Look Li, last night…thanks for helping me and Zachary," Sakura said with a smile. "It's like I said before, you and Zachary don't deserve to be Cardcaptors," Li said smugly. "Look Li, I've told you before, and I'm going to tell you again, as you are clearly being arrogant, and didn't appear to hear me the last time! You're not the one who released the Clow Cards from the book, me and Sakura did, so do me a favor right now Li, and back off!" I said in an irritated tone of voice.

A little later, during class, me and Sakura dozed off.

The beginning of the daydream

The daydream begins with me and Sakura standing on top of the same tall building from our previous dreams, both of us have our respective staffs clenched in our hands, and both of us are facing the same radio tower from our previous dreams. "Who is that?" I thought out loud to myself. "Zachary, Sakura!" Mr. Terada's voice said.

End of daydream

It was then that me and Sakura opened our eyes to see the teacher. "You both woke up just in the nick of time, the class is over," Mr. Terada said. A little later, after the school day ended, Madison, me, and Sakura, along with Rita, went to one of the stores that we had wanted to check out for a while. After Madison, Sakura and Rita had bought their broaches that they wanted to get, we all then headed back to me and Sakura's house to help Rita study for the upcoming spelling test.

A little later, back at me and Sakura's house, Madison, Sakura and I were helping Rita study for the test, when Madison, Sakura and Rita decided to try on the broaches that they had bought at the store. Sakura put on the heart shaped broach, Madison put on the cross shaped one, and Rita put on the sword shaped one. "Okay Rita, spell the word broach," I said. "b-r-o-a...uh...b-r-o-a-w?" "Don't take too long Rita," I said. "So Rita, what do u think of your new broach?" Sakura asked.

It was then that I noticed that Rita didn't seem like she was acting like her old self. "Rita, are you okay?" I asked. "Rita?" Sakura asked in a somewhat scared tone of voice. "Rita, what's wrong?" I asked, also in a somewhat scared tone of voice.

It was then that I noticed that Rita's sword shaped broach was glowing. And then, the sword shaped broach transformed into a bigger version of itself. "This can't be good!" I said, while turning my attention to Sakura. "I agree with that!" Sakura said. And it was then, that Rita, who was under the control of the sword, lunged at Sakura, who just managed to dodge it just in time.

While Sakura was dodging Rita's sword attacks, I quickly ran upstairs to find Kero and tell him what had just happened. "Kero, we got a really big problem!" I said in a scared tone of voice. "I agree, I'm sensing a clow card nearby," Kero said in a serious tone of voice.

It was then that me and Kero ran downstairs and out the door to help Sakura defend herself from Rita's sword attacks. It was when we arrived at the scene that Kero immediately knew which clow card it was. "Of course, it's the Sword Card, Zachary, Sakura, you both know what to do!" Kero said.

It was then that I pulled out my key. I then turned to Sakura, who nodded and also took out her key. "Oh key of clow, power of magic, power of light, surrender the wand, the force ignite, RELEASE!" Me and Sakura both chanted in unison. And with our respective staffs now in hand.

And with Rita now charging at us both, with the true form of the Sword Card still controlling her. I then quickly pulled out the Jump Card. To which me and Sakura, then raised our respective staffs. "Jump Card!" Me and Sakura chanted in unison, as we swung our respective staffs down, and hit the Jump Card, at exactly the same time, with the tips of our respective staffs.

And, with the Jump Card's wings, now adorning the sides of our respective shoes, and as Rita nearly made it to us, we both, managed to jump, and then forward flip out of harms way.

But, however, Sakura wound up landing in a nearby bush. And upon me going over to the bush in which she had fallen into, to try and see is she was okay. I then, quite unfortunately I might add, wound up hearing, an all too familiar male voice from behind me. "Well Zachary, it still seems, as though you and Sakura, still don't have clue what you both are doing," the all too familiar voice of Li Showron, wound up saying from behind me.

Which, not surprisingly, caused me to then display a very unhappy looking expression. And as I then turned to face Li, this very expression, was still present on my face.

"Well Li, I guess that this is how things are going to wind up going, for the foreseeable future, aren't they? And just for the record Li..." I said to Li, up until he wound up cutting me off mid-sentence.

"Until such a time that all of the Clow Cards are captured, then yes Zachary, this is exactly how things are going to go!" Li wound up responding to me, and with a very arrogant sounding demeanor to his tone.

However, despite my current demeanor, I decided, to ignore Li, for the current moment. And instead, I decided, to go and check, if Sakura was okay.

And, once I had determined that she was in fact okay. I then suggested to Sakura, that we use the Illusion Card, in an effort to break the control, that the Sword Card currently had on Rita.

And, with us both then nodding to each other. I then pulled out the Illusion Card. To which shortly thereafter, me and Sakura, then raised our respective staffs. "Illusion Card, let Rita see what she fears the most, ILLUSION, RELEASE AND DISPEL!" Me and Sakura both chanted in unison, as we tapped the Illusion Card at exactly the same time with the tips of our respective staffs.

A few seconds later, the Illusion Card appeared and took the form of what Rita feared the most. Which weirdly, turned out to be Mr. Terada. Soon after, the Sword dropped out of Rita's hands. And it was then that me and Sakura once again raised our respective staffs. "Sword Card, we command you to return to your power confined, SWORD CARD!" Me and Sakura both chanted in unison, as we swung our respective staffs down at the same time. A few seconds after that, the Sword Card was captured. "Well done Zachary, well done Sakura!" Kero said. "That was a somewhat easy capture," I said, as I then turned my attention to Sakura, and smiled. "I was just thinking the same thing," Sakura said in response, as she then wound up returning the smile.
