Going In Almost Completely Blind

Chapter 49: Chapter 49: The Last Card! Caught In An Earthquake! (Part 1)



So, as it currently stood, it had been just a couple of days, since me and Sakura, had captured the Twin Card, with the help of both Li, and Meilin. However, as it currently stood, we were both sort of preoccupied at the current moment. Which was further confirmed by the overwhelming fact, that both of us, along with Li, were currently on board a train, and we were currently passing by Tokyo Tower. 

"I mean, what happens next, there is only one more Clow Card left to capture," I heard Sakura say, while looking at Tokyo Tower from the window of the moving train. ​And it was only once I had also, turned my attention towards Tokyo Tower, that I was then brought back down to earth, so to speak.

"Oh, that's right...I forgot about that recurring dream that both me and Sakura had been having for quite a while now...I really do wish that I knew more about that dream...But, seeing as how I hadn't watched anything past episode 5 of the Nelvana Dub version of the anime...I am still very much, Going In Almost Completely Blind," I thought to myself, as I continued to stare off in a bit of thought, at Tokyo Tower, as the train continued to pass it by.

A little bit later, at an archery range. Me, Sakura, Li, and Madison. Along with Kero, who the moment, as per usual, was currently hiding in my school bag, so that he wouldn't be seen. And you might now all be asking yourselves, as to why we were all currently at an archery range, correct? Well, as was currently the case, we were watching an archery tournament of sorts. And who should be participating in it but Julian.

And to be completely honest. Well, not like I haven't been completely honest throughout the entire length of this fanfic, but I digress.

Anyway, Julian was currently participating in the archery tournament. However, the most significant factor here, was that Ms. Mackenzie, was also participating. And as it currently stood, they were both versing against each other, going shot for shot, in the current final match of the tournament.

And not to be surprised here or anything, but both of them, were incredibly good at it. Never mind the fact that they kept getting bullseye after bullseye, but like I said, this was the final match of the tournament, so I wasn't really as surprised as I should've been.

This was basically due, to what I had heard Sakura say earlier, while we were on board the train, and were passing by Tokyo Tower.

"I still can't seem to get what Sakura said back on the train out of my mind...It is as if, once both of us have captured, and sealed the final Clow Card, then things, won't be exactly over yet...In fact, it might actually seem, as though me and Sakura's adventure, will only be just beginning," I thought to myself, in quite a deep thought.

Only for me to be brought back out of my deep thought, when I couldn't help, but overhear Ms. Mackenzie, speak in the most hush of tones, a single word, "Yue."

This was then followed, quite weirdly I might add, by Ms. Mackenzie, letting go of the arrow, that she had already had drawn back in the drawstring of her bow. Which, once it had whizzed through the air, towards the target, wound up embedding itself, quite a little bit of a way from the target, that the arrow in question, was intended to hit.

In fact, the arrow, had actually embedded itself, on the outside fascia, of the target row itself. And if I had to take a quick educated guess, as to how far that was, I would honestly have said, that it was far enough outside of the target, to be considered to be worth zero points.

However, my thought was then interrupted once again, by everyone except for me, then starting into a round of claps. And this was then followed during this, by Li of all people then speaking up. "Ms. Mackenzie missed that by a mile, something must've distracted her," I heard Li, say over the noise of the people clapping.

And this, not surprisingly, caused me, to once again, go back into deep thought. "Well Li...I would assume, that it was more then likely due to Ms. Mackenzie saying the word, 'Yue." Wait a sec, here!...I remember now, the Light and Dark Cards, back when me and Sakura had captured and sealed them both in the auditorium weeks back, did say something along the lines, of 'the Final Judgment, will come from Yue." So then that would mean...hold on...lets not just jump to conclusions here...get a hold of yourself...Still, if what the Light and Dark Cards said was true, then I have a strange feeling, that me and Sakura, as well as everyone else involved with the Clow Cards, might soon be locked, in a fight, for our very lives," I thought to myself, with a now all too visible shocked expression, now plastered across my face.

A few hours later, at a nearby sculpture garden. Me and Sakura, had sort of lost track of Kero. Well, when I say that, Kero, had sort of flown off somewhere.

But, it was only once we had come across Kero, again, who had been conversing with Ms. Mackenzie. That I was then now starting to realize, just that much more, that everything, regarding me, Sakura, our friends, as well as the Clow Cards, were not even the least bit close to being over with.

In fact, before me and Sakura, had happened across the conversation, that had been taking place, between Kero and Ms. Mackenzie, I couldn't help, but overhear a small bit of the conversation.

"So, you haven't told either of them yet?" I heard the unmistakable voice of Ms. Mackenzie ask Kero.

"No," I then heard the unmistakable voice of Kero answer back.

"Not about the Final Judgment?" I then heard Ms. Mackenzie answer back.

Which once, she had said that, a small look of shock, then found its way onto my face. Only this time, it was far less obvious, then when I had been such, back at the archery range, during the archery tournament.

Now, fast forward to a couple minutes later, and I couldn't help, but then get, an all too familiar feeling, which was then followed, by quite a few, ground like tremors, then vibrate, through the ground beneath me.

"Well then, it looks as though the last Clow Card is about to reveal itself...let me just let Sakura know," I began, only to stop somewhat dead in my tracks, when I then realized, that Julian, was currently present.

"Oh, well this is clearly not the most ideal...hmm...Well, it would seem, as though things, have now gotten quite a bit more complicated," I thought to myself, as a sweatdrop, now made itself visible, on one side of my face.
