Chapter 17: The Cave!: Erased From All Existence!

  It had been about a few days since me and Sakura had captured the Float Card, and we were now on a field trip at the beach with our css from school…while Kero was back at home, and boy he was not feeling happy.

  "Hot…*sigh*, this is really me, Sakura and Zachary are on a field trip to the bead I'm not" Kero said in an somewhat unhappy tone of voice.

  It was then that Kero tried to dry off his left wing, but ended up falling over onto his face while saying "Hot, it's so hot, uhh!" After he rolled onto his back he said "I deserve way better then this, it's not fair!"

  Meanwhile, in the room, Tori and Julian were busy doing their school work, that is until they heard something, and Julian decided to speak first. "Hey Tori, did you just hear something?" Julian asked. "Uhh, i don't know" Tori responded in what sounded like a fused sounding tone of voice. "Well, then I guess I'm just studying too hard huh?" Julian said in response.

  Meanwhile, at the beach, and uhe waves, me and Sakura were currently swimming uer, with Sakura out in front, and me following several yards behind her. And while we were both swimming uer, we got to see a lot of fish and seaweed, which was very exg. After that, we both popped up at the surface of the water, apart from each other of course by a few yards. And when both of us had popped up and looked forward, I was the first to notice a cave in front of us, and boy did it give me the creeps. And it probably gave Sakura the creeps too. While we were looking at the cave I noticed someoanding irance of it with his back turned, it was Li. But before either me or Sakura could say anything to him, he turned around and dove into the water. "What would Li be doing this far out?" I thought to myself.

  It was then that one of our friends from css called both me and Sakura names from the bead said that they were going to py some beach volleyball, which was a sign for us to e back to shore. So we turned around and started to swim back. And while we were swimming back, our friends began to ent on hoere such good swimmers. "Wow, they are such good swimmers" Nikki said amazed. "If Mr. Terada saw them that far out by themselves, they would be in trouble" another one of our friends said. "They probably swim better then he " Chelsea said as they all began to ugh.

  A little ter, that night, me and Sakura were in our , with a few of our friends, and we were talking about how our day went, that is, until everyoarted talking about hoere all going to do the a shrine walk in the cave tomorrow night. This ended up making Sakura a little scared. And then Nikki started saying that there were ghosts in the cave, and this made Sakura even more worried and scared. While Nikki was talking, the door to the opened, and all of us, includi scared and yelled, but it turned out to just be Mr. Terada. "Listen, everything alright?" he asked. "We were just talking about the a shrine, you just scared us when you opehe door, that's all" Madison said in response. "Sorry, didn't mean to do that…k, you got a big day tomorrow so you'd better go to sleep now, it's past lights out" Mr Terada said. "Ok" everyone except Mr. Terada said in response. And once everyone had said 'Ok' in respoo what Mr. Terada had said, Mr. Terada closed the door to the a, and then we all went to sleep, except for me and Sakura, Sakura couldn't get to sleep because she was afraid of what Nikki had told her about the ghosts, and I couldn't get to sleep because I was worried about Sakura getting scared during the a shrine walk because of what Nikki had told her. So I decided that during the a shrine walk that I would tell her that I would be there to help her get through the a shrine walk without getting scared. It was before I went to sleep that I noticed Sakura getting up from uhe covers and saying "it's no use, I 't sleep" and then leaving the to go and take a walk, I wao go and walk with her, but I decided against it since I o get to sleep for the a shrine walk tomorrow with Sakura and everyone else.

  The m, me, Sakura and Madison were washing our hands at the hand washing station, and that was when Madison asked me and Sakura, "so, what are you going to leave behind at the shrine on the walk tonight?" It was then that I responded by asking that we should leave Li there. A little ter, the three of us were sitting under some trees while fag the cave that was across the water, Sakura was lying down ft on her back, while me and madison were sitting with s bent. It was then that while I was looking forward and Sakura was just getting up and looking forward that a white mist appeared irance of the cave, whided up surprising me and Sakura, "is something wrong Sakura, Zachary?" Madison asked in a ed sounding tone of voice. Sakura first responded by saying "No, it's okay" and then I added in "Yeah, were fine."

  Later that evening, at the cave, everyone, including me, Sakura, Madison, and Li were getting ready for the a shrine walk. A person that was standing in front of everyone was expining to everyone hoould use dles in the cave and not fshlights so that we would get a good idea of what it was like when the a people visited the shrihe person also expined about what we would all do wheered the cave. But while the person eaking and expining everything to everyone, me and Sakura sensed something, but we both pushed it to the back of our minds for the time being. It was then that the person finished expining and began sending groups of 2 and 3 people into the cave towards the a shri was after Nikki, Chelsea and Rita had bee into the cave towards the a shrihat it was now me, Sakura and Madison's turn to go into the cave, however, as we started into the cave, Sakura began to get a little scared and worried. As we went deeper and deeper into the cave, it was then that Sakura and I started to notice that we weren't hearing anything, or anyone for that matter, and that we should've seeher people passing us by now.

  It was then that we got to a bridge, and when we looked towards the other side of it, we didn't see any lights from any of the other kids. Then, we heard a girl that sounded like Chelsea yelling out Nikki's name. "Do you think it's safe?" Madison asked. All three of us then began to run across the bridge towards Chelsea's voice. It was whe across the bridge that we found Chelsea and Rita standing there, only Rita set and g. "Are you guys okay?" Madison asked in a very ed tone of voice. "No, were not, Nikki's disappeared" Chelsea said in response in an upset tone of voice. "What do you mean she's disappeared?" I asked in a very ed tone of voice. "Well, we were standing right here, and then, she just…seemed to vanish, right Rita?" It was when Chelsea turo Rita that Rita suddenly vanished. "Did you see that, that is the exact same thing that happeo Nikki" and as soon as Chelsea finished her sentence she also suddenly vanished. "What's going on?" Sakura asked to no one in particur. "You were right Sakura" Madison said in a scared tone of voice. "I'm right, you mean to tell me you really think that there are ghosts in here Madison?" Sakura said in response in a very scared tone of voice. "Li was sure there was no Clow Card in here right? Madison asked. "uh huh" Sakura said in respo was then that I suggested that we all go a help. Sakura and Madison agreed with me, and with that, we dashed back across the bridge to go a help, but not before Madison also suddenly vanished. It was then that me and Sakura turned around and Sakura said in a scared tone of voice "Madison's vahere's no o" It was that the dle that was being held by Madison fell onto the wooden surface of the bridge and caught fire. Then, after the bridge had caught fire, a voice said from behind us, "Sakura!" It was then that me and Sakura turned around and saw Li running up to us. It was when Li stopped right in front of us that Sakura said "Li, Madison and the others, their gone." Li then said "I know, the same thing happeo my group."

  It was then that Sakura got an idea, "Hey Li, do you have you Lasin Board with you?" Li nodded. But then, the bridge, that was still on fire started to fall apart. It was then that Sakura told Li to hurry up. Li then started to t "Source of light with a spin, send forth the magic power within. Oracles of Gold, Wood, Fire, Earth, Cloud, Wind, Rain, & Electricity. Forow my plight, Release the light!" It was then that the Lasin Board shot a light straight across the colpsed wooden bridge. "Over there?" I asked. "Yep" Li said in response while sounding somewhat irritated to hear the question from me. "We have got to get across the water" Li said. "Is the board always right?" Sakura asked. "Your still worried about ghosts aren't you, have you both got a card for this or not?" Li said in a somewhat aone of voice. "Yea we do" I said as I pulled a Clow Card out of my pocket and then Sakura and I raised our respective staffs, "Float Card, transport us to the other side, Float, release and dispel!" Sakura and I ted as we hit the Float Card at the same time with the tips of our respective staffs. It was then that a pink and blue bubble formed around all 3 of us, and then me and Sakura raised our staffs, the bubble then began to rise and then float across the water towards the a shri was after we had reached the other side and touched down on the ground, that me and Sakura then said "Float Card, return!" and the Float Card theurned bato its card form and materialized ba my hand, which I then put ba my pocket. "Okay it's all yours" Li said to me and Sakura, but it was after he had finished his sentehat he began to fade. "No, not you too Li!" Sakura said. "Listen, master your fear, before we all vanish, and never e back, we are running out of time!" Li said. "Okay!" I said as we then put our respective staffs in front of us and then began to trate with our eyes closed. It was then that we both realized that there was something emanating from the a shrihat was ahead of us. I then sprinted ahead, with Sakura close behind, and I flung both of the doors to the a shrine open, and then the same white mist from before came p out. We then raised our respective staffs high above our heads and said "Clow Card, return to your power, fined!" and with that the Clow Card was captured, which turned out to be the Erase Card, which expined why everyone was vanishing. It was then that I wiped the sweat from my forehead and said, "well, that capture was a little bit difficult" "I 't agree with you any less" Sakura said.
