Author's Note:

Ok, I've done it again.

*sigh*

I can't help it.

I get a new idea I just have to write it down :'(

I'll upgrade my other stories soon, I promise.

I just have a bad case of writer's block, hopefully writing this story will help.

Disclaimer:

I don't own Cardcaptor Sakura, (I'm getting really tired of writing the disclaimers, I can't even be bothered thinking of something funny to write)

Chapter One

"SAKURA! WATCH OUT!" cried Syaoran was he watched the demon attack Sakura from behind.

Fortunately Sakura was ready, she jumped out of the way and called on a Star Card.

"Windy! Release and Dispel!"

She skilfully tossed the pink card into the sky, swirled her wand and touched the falling card with the top of the Star wand as it fell.

"Windy Card, form a chain and trap it!"

The card glowed at it's Mistress's command and the ghostly spirit transformed, wrapping itself around the struggling demon.

Sakura sighed with relief.

Tomoyo squealed with excitement.

"So what do we do now?" asked Syaoran.

They all stared at the demon, trapped by the Windy Card.

"……….."

It was Eriol who broke the silence. Eriol had been watching the battle from the sidelines, beside Tomoyo, to be exact. He had convinced Tomoyo that the Cardcaptoring pair didn't need his help and fighting together might actually help his two descendant's realise their feelings.

Tomoyo accepted it.

He wasn't telling her the truth.

Eriol walked towards the Demon.

"Eriol-kun! Not too close!" warned Sakura.

He smiled reassuringly and faced the demon.

"Next time we see you here you die." he told the demon.

It stared at him.

"Now Sakura……….. now you let it go" he stated.

"Are you crazy? We can't just Let it go!" cried Syaoran, bring his sword into an offensive position.

"I'm afraid I have to agree with Eriol" said Kero.

Yue nodded.

"But Kero-chan…"

"Sakura-san, capturing Demons is not your job," said Eriol, his eyes shifted away from Sakura for an instant and landed on Tomoyo, blue orbs flushing with amusement, before returning back to the confused Card mistress.

Tomoyo blinked.

"Guardian?" Sakura's voice broke Tomoyo's concentration off of her thoughts and back reality.

"I think I've heard it somewhere before, or perhaps read somewhere before." commented Syaoran.

Eriol nodded, "The Li clan is quite famous for it's Library."

"Are they anything like Kero or Yue?" Sakura asked

"Iie, They are quite different actually, and also quite human," Eriol's voice was filled with amusement as he watched Sakura get even more confused.

Suddenly there was a loud bang and Eriol stood, rubbing the sore spot at the back of his head. Tomoyo stood behind of him, pale cheeks slightly flushed with anger.

"Hiiragizawa-kun, would you quit confusing Sakura-chan and explain already"

Eriol looked at Tomoyo, giving her his best puppy-dog eyes.

She stared blankly back at him.

Damn.

This time, it was Syaoran who broke the silence.

"I GOT IT!!! I know where I read it. It's in one of the books I had sent over for some entertainment reading during the holidays."

--------------------------

Syaoran scanned his rather large bookshelf, looking for the book.

Sakura sat in one of the chairs, she got dizzy just looking at all the books.

Eriol and Tomoyo were checking out Syaoran's collection.

"Ah…what's this? A book about Sakura?" Eriol asked, taking a medium sized book off the third shelf.

Sakura looked up at the mention of her name.

Syaoran was looking slightly red.

Tomoyo walked over next to the blue haired boy and took the book from his hands, examining it.

"It's a book about Cherry Blossoms," she said flipping through the pages.

"Really? How fascinating! Li-kun, do you like Cherry blossoms?" Eriol asked the flaming boy.

"Oh silly me! Of cause you do! Why would you have a whole book on it if you didn't? I must say, you have very good taste, they are very beautiful aren't they?"

"….y..yes"

"Really Syaoran-kun? I love them too! They're my favourite flower!" Sakura beamed at him, causing Syaoran to blush even harder.

Tomoyo gently put the book back on the shelf.

"That was quite evil Hiiragizawa-kun," she said quietly so only he could hear.

"I know" he smiled.

The Guardian has the duty for guarding her territory from all demons. Their powers differ depending on personality. Most Guardians of the same territory are generations of the same family, inherited by blood. They will usually vanquish the demon unless the demon agrees to stay and fight along side the Guardian. The Guardian then has the power to turn the demon into small gem stones called Guardian Gems. The gems are usually worn as an accessary or attached to an accessary that is worn.

"That's all I have" said Syaoran, shutting the very thick book.

Sakura still couldn't believe Syaoran read something like that as entertainment.

"Well it's getting late, I should go before Oniichan gets worried" said Sakura

The others nodded. They knew Touya too well.

"Why don't you walk her home Li-kun? It is getting dark after all" suggested Eriol.

Tomoyo glanced at his innocent face and hid a smile.

"I…..ok….I.."

Sakura smiled. "Thankyou" ^-^

"What about you Daidouji-san? Are you walking home alone at this hour?"

"Well, yes I…"

"Why don't I walk you home,"

"I don't want be a ..."

"...it's on the way"

Tomoyo looked at Eriol and sighed.

"All right"

They walked together in silence.

Silence suited them both fine.

They were the silent type after all.

"We're here" stated Tomoyo

"We are aren't we" Eriol smiled

She shook her head, Eriol could be impossible sometimes.

Just then Sonomi rushed out of the house (mansion). She slowed down as she reached Tomoyo.

"Oh Tomoyo! I was so worried! You weren't home for dinner…"

"I'm fine mother" Tomoyo smiled

Sonomi turned and acknowledged Eriol.

"Hiiragizawa-san, thank you for walking Tomoyo home"

"It was nothing Daidouji-sama"

Sonomi turned back to Tomoyo.

"Tomoyo-chan, why don't you go inside. Have one of the maids heat up dinner for you," said Sonomi.

Tomoyo looked at her mother, then at Eriol.

Eriol just smiled.

Sonimi put her hands on Tomoyo's shoulder and steered her towards the house.

"I'll walk Hiiragizawa-san to the gate"

Tomoyo nodded.

And noticed the extra gem on her mother's silver bracelet. For as far as she could remember her mother had always worn the same bracelet. She was sure it only had 8 gems, now it had 9.

Tomoyo dismissed the idea and walked into the house.

She must have been mistaken.

Turning back, she saw Sonomi and Eriol deep in conversation.

Sonomi was quite fond of Eriol, she realised.

She remembered the first time she invited Eriol to her house for tea. Sonomi had been surprised to see Tomoyo bring a boy. But Eriol had proved himself to be quite intelligent and charming. Sonomi had been very pleased with Tomoyo's choice of friends. She had also asked about Tomoyo and Eriol's relationship, hinting that they were maybe more than friends.

Tomoyo chuckled.

Her and Eriol? More than Fiends?

They weren't even close friends.

The only reason she invitied Eriol to tea was because she had previously told Sonomi she was going to bring a friend over. Unfortunately Sakura had detention for being late to school three times in a row and she was sure Syaoran wasn't the tea kind.

Besides Eriol had a natural talent for getting under her nerves sometimes.

Tomoyo Daidouji was usually was very calm person. She didn't know why, he pissed her off sometimes and made her laugh others.

He just did.

It must be an English thing.

She mused
