Life and Death
Author:Katherine
Note from Author: Ok all you readers out there I changed a couple of things. I created some new cards that aren't in Cardcaptor Sakura (the title kind of gives it away). This story is involved with the English version, simply called Cardcaptors.  In case anyone who reads this is confused with the story and only knows the Japenese version, here are the names that were translated: Madison Taylor/Tomoyo Daidouji, Li Showron/Sayoran Li, Tori Avalon/Touya Kinomoto, Aiden Avalon/Fugitaka Kinomoto, and Sakura Avalon/Sakura Kinomoto.In this story, something terrible happens to Sakura and its up to Li to save her. Will Sakura survive? Dun dun duuuuuuun...Read to find out!!

Part One
"The Missing Cards"
To Sakura it was like a dream. Li simply came by her house and knocked on the door Saturday afternoon.
"Hey, Sakura," Li greeted her.
"Hi, Li!" Sakura exclaimed. "What brings you here?"
"Um...you see..." Li stared at the ground. "I was wondering if you would like to get some ice-cream or something with me and Madison."
  Sakura looked behind Li out in the front yard. Madison was behind a bush waving to her, smiling at her in a sly way, obviously trying to hook the two of them together. Sakura loved him and he loved her, although they never had the bravery to say so. She sweatdropped like in the anime. "It was Madison's idea, right>"
"...Yeah..."Li replied sheepishly.
"OK, Li," Skaura agreed. "I'd love to. Just let me get permission--"
"Hey Sakura who's at the door?" Tori asked. He came to the doorway
"Oh, just a friend," Sakura replied blushing.
"Just a friend, eh, Squirt?" Tori asked. He came to the doorway to see.
"TORI!" Sakura yelled, turning even redder. Li sweatdropped. 'Well, what if he is? Whats it to you?"
"Just wondering scince he's the kid who got in a fight with you a while ago and all," Tori said.
"OK, OK!" Li cried. "So we got off to a bad start. But everything worked out..."
"Thats enough, Tori," Sakura scolded him. "You're embarrasing me. Go tell Dad that I'm going out with my FRIENDS and I'll be back in a couple of hours."
"Whatever," Tori said as he walked away.
Sakura pulled the door closed behind her and walked with Li up to Madison. "How embarrassing..."
"I heard it all," Madison said with a giggle. "Well, let's just go to the park."
"OK," Li and Sakura said to together.

The three of them spent hours at the park. They went to get some ice-cream and to the zoo. Madison tried to get them close together whenever she had the chance.
"Buy her some ice-cream!" Madison whispered in Li's ear while Sakura watched the dolphin trainers perform. "You want to make an impression on her, right? You DO like her."
"You really think she's going to kiss me tonight?" Li whispered.
"Of course!" Madison replied. "But you have to be soft. Make her feel special. You have to make the first move. Trust me It'll work."
"OK then," Li said as he took a deep breath. "Be right back." He walked away.
After a moment Sakura turned to Madison. "Hey where did Li go?"
"Who knows?" Madison said, shrugging. "Why are you wondering where he went? You miss him?"
"Oh, Madison!" Sakura said, blushing. "Well, I know you're trying to get us together. That's why we're here in the first place."
"What's the harm in that?" Madison asked with a sly smile. "I know you like him. He likes you, too. So why don't you be together? He's the one who asked me for help and that wanted to go out with you today."
"Really?" Sakura said. "I thought it was your idea."
"Nope," Madison said. "Completely Li's idea. He also said he was planning to kiss you today."
Sakura turned bright red. "K-kiss me!?"
"Look, here he comes!"
Li came back with a giant chocolate ice-cream cone. "I thought you would want this," he said to Sakura, blushing. "Since it's a hot day and all..."
"Oh, thank you, Li," Sakura said, smiling. Li also smiled.
Madison giggled. *This is going to work out, I'm sure of it!* she thought.

After the trip to the park, Li and Madison decided to walk with Sakura back to her house. It was dark byt he time they reached her home.
"Thanks, you guys," Sakura said. "Tha was fun."
"Yeah, especially when Li was splashed by that seal when it jumped into the water," Madison said giggling. Li groaned.
"Um..." Li blushed. "Well, guess I'll see you around. I have to walk home. It's getting late" He leaned close to Sakura and kissed her on the cheek. Sakura's eyes went wide and she turned bright red. Then she gave Li a sly smile, grabbed him by the arm, and kissed him on the lips.
"Haha!" Madison laughed as she applauded. "You go, Sakura!"
When Sakura finished, she stepped back to take a look at Li's face. He was just as surprised as she was.
"So, does this make you two boyfriend and girlfriend?" Madison asked.
Sakura and Li looked at Madison, and then back at each other. They smiled.
"It sure does!" Sakura exclaimed.
Suddenly, a loud noise sounded and made them jump,
"W-what was that!?" Madison cried, afraid. Then they heard it again. It sounded like thunder, but the three knew very well it wasn't thunder at all. Sakur looked back at the house to see Kero flying out of room thorough the window. Tied around his neck was the sealing wand in it's key form. By looking at it, Sakur knew something was very wrong.
"Kero!"Sakura cried. "Whats wrong?"
"I sense a Clow Card!" Kero cried.
"What !?" Li cried. "I thought they were all sealed away!"
"I know, but trust me on this one! It's a Clow Card! Sakura, we got a situation here! I sense really strong power!"
"But how can that be?" Sakura asked. "There's only fifty-two of them...We got them all."
"Well I sense one," Li said. "Maybe we didn't finish the job after all."
They heard the noise again, only this time, it seemed closer.
"Sakura, I have the key," Kero said, dropping it in her hand. "If we see it, you have to seal it." The strange thunder-like noise rumbled through the air once again, making the ground shake.
"Oh, no, it's getting close!" Li cried.
"Quick, Sakura!" Kero cried. "Use your magic and call forth the Sealing Wa--"
Suddenly the ground shook so violently beneath them that Sakura and Li were knocked down, but Kero had the ability to fly and remained balanced. A figure apppeared before them, floating in the air. It was a person wearing a long black robe with a hood covering the face. The figure took the hood off, revealing itself. It was a young girl. She stared at them her cold, dark eyes. In her hand, she had a black sceptor with a white crescent moon on one end.
"Oh, no..." Kero whispered.
"What is it, Kero?" Sakura asked. "What card is it?"
"It's one of the Missing Cards!"
