“On her way to buy cakes for afternoon tea, Sakura had sensed another Clow Card. Following the odd feeling, she was led into a thin alleyway behind the cake shop. The alley was dirty and almost pitch-black with only a tiny flickering light casting away the shadows. Walking further into the alley, that odd feeling began to fade until it had completely disappeared. “I don’t feel it anymore, Kero?”
Looking up to the small plush doll, Kero shook his head too in agreement. “The Clow Card’s gone,” he said, hovering at Sakura’s side. “We’ll just have to go home and wait for it to appear again.” Before adding in an undertone, he added with an imp-like smirk across his face, “more cake, more cakes!”
Sakura nodded and said, “We don’t even know what card, it was. That’s the problem.” She looked up into the miserable sky. At the heavy blanket of black and gray stretching for as far as she could see. After a moment, Kero followed suit and looked up too inquisitively. “Maybe it’s ‘The Rain’ card. I guess not, though...” He flopped lazily in mid-air, his stubby plush hands curled behind his back. “Use ‘The Fly’ and get us home quicker. Before it rains.” Usually, Sakura would be against the misuse of Clow Cards but it did appear like it was about to pour at any second. “Right, then I’ll make us some tea,” she smiled, her staff hanging loosely from her left hand.
Sakura swung the staff up, simultaneously throwing one of her cards. The golden star in the center of the staff struck the card. The small wings fluttered and she called out in a strong, confident voice. “Fly!” With a flurry of feathers, a pair of angelic wings appeared on the young girls back. With a single flap of the strong wings, she took flight. Soaring upwards like a bullet towards the gray stretch of sky.
But then something quite odd happened. Sakura struck what appeared to be an invisible wall, lying horizontally across the sky. The wings faded away on touch with the invisible wall and Sakura fell like a rock back down to the alley below. Fortunately, it hadn’t been too far so she wasn’t at all injured. Rubbing her back, she looked up at the place the invisible wall was, “I don’t understand?”
