Sakura nodded. "H-hai! I've got one!" She was a little nervous using magic around Link, but she didn't want to be left behind. She pulled a Clow Card out from her pocket and swung the Star Wand down on it. "Card made by Clow! Lend your powers to my key! SWORD!" The Card disappeared, and her staff was replaced by a long, thin, expertly-carved sword. She held it dramatically above her head for Link to see. "See?"
"Sounds like a good strategy," Kero agreed.
"Let's go," Syaoran said seriously. "There isn't any time to lose."

The group of four searched the village and found it secure, so they headed out into the field. A huge gathering of monsters covered nearly every inch of grass. "We're going to have to fight our way to the market, do you have a plan for getting Tomoyo through safely?"

Sakura put a finger to her chin. "Hm... well... um..." Tomoyo looked at her with wide eyes. She HAD to be able to cross! She couldn't film Sakura from all the way back here!
"The Float Card!" piped Kero, happy to have thought of something useful.
Sakura smiled. "Hai, that's right! Hold on a second..." She loosened her grip on the Sword and watched it turn back into the staff, grabbing the Card as it fluttered down into the air. Then she pulled out a second Card. "Card made by Clow, lend your powers to my key! FLOAT!" What came out of her staff was a large, pink, mushroom-shaped object, floating a few inches off the ground. She pointed her staff at Tomoyo, and the Float followed in that direction. Sakura gave Link a nod. "See? Tomoyo-chan can get across on the Float Card." Then she pulled out the first Card again. "SWORD!" And her staff was a sword once more. "Now everything's fixed!"
"And I can get across the field to film Sakura-chan's wonderful adventures!" Tomoyo squealed in delight.

Link looked at the bubble surrounding Tomoyo approvingly. "Let's get going. take down any monsters that get in your way, but don't waste time with extras." Link jumped into the field and spun around, sword charged with magic, creating a clearing around him. He then started to fight his way through the crowd and towards tho castle. "Come on! This goes a lot faster with three people!" he yelled back to the edge of the field.

Syaoran flew into the battle and attacked the monsters head-on, using a combination of magic and martial arts techniques. Watching him, Sakura was reminded painfully of how well he and Meilin had worked together to capture the Twin Card. How could he not have feelings for her after something like that?
Sakura ran in after him, throwing the Sword at the monsters with startling ferocity, but only hitting the ones she needed to. Unlike Syaoran, who didn't care in the least, she didn't want to hurt anyone unnecessarily. Tomoyo floated beside them, holding her video camera out in front of her.
After a moment's hesitation, Kero seemed to realize that a stuffed animal would be in great peril in this particular battle. His wings grew large and engulfed his body, emerging a moment later as a huge, golden lion. He then flew after them at breakneck speed, burning every monster he came in contact with to the ground.

Once the group managed to reach the drawbridge, link realized that it was broken. "Alright, you can float all tree of you over there, and I can use the Hover Boots." That's exactly what they did, and once inside he market, they saw the Royal guards already retreating, just managing to hold off the group of monsters attacking them. "We can't let the monsters follow them to the village. Our work is almost done for today, so let's get this over with." With that, Link sprang into the fray and cut down a number of monsters with a single slice.

Syaoran followed him almost instantly, slicing through monsters with great precision. Sakura watched him, her body tingling with longing. How could she possibly ever be that good? There had to be some way she could impress him... and then her eyes fell on Kero, who was breathing fire on the monsters to make them back off...
"Card made by Clow!" she cried, letting the Sword Card fall back into her pocket. She really wasn't thinking of her safety or anyone else's as she pulled out the Card. All she wanted was to prove to Syaoran that she was strong too. "Lend your powers to my key!
"FIREY!"
"Sakura-chan!" Tomoyo shrieked, but it was too late. The monsters went up in flames, but then so did the road where they stood...

Fortunately, Link had sensed the fire energy approaching and had summoned his Goron tunic. The fireproof tunic had saved Links life many times before this one. Syaoran, an the other hand, had no fire proof tunic. Link summoned the water medallion and cast a new spell that he didn't even know existed. Whatever the spell was, a huge amount of water sprung forth from the medallion, and Link used it like a fire hose, putting out the flames on the street and on Syaoran. The water eventually stopped spraying, and Link staggered around a bit, something that he always did every time he used a new spell (the spells that Link uses need an extremely powerful user to be effective, because they're legendary spells)

Syaoran, now sopping wet, turned around and glared wildly at Sakura. "What the heck was that for?!" Sakura flinched. "S-Syaoran-kun... I just wanted to... to help..." "Well then, help in the normal way!" Syaoran spat. He couldn't believe Sakura would try to burn him! Something about her just made him so angry sometimes, though it was also the same thing that made him love her. Now, of course, he let the hatred take over. "Use the Sword Card! That tourguide told you to use it, but did you listen? No!" He was shouting now, throwing out any word that came into his head. Each one pierced Sakura like a knife. "But no, you can't just be good, can you, Miss Master of the Clow? You have to be the BEST!" He shook his head. "Firey. Hmph. We all could have been KILLED thanks to YOUR need to be the BEST!" Sakura looked at the road, trying her hardest to fight back tears. She knew she'd failed when the world started to swim before her as water clogged up her eyes. She curled her hands into fists. Who did Syaoran think he was? "Oh y-yeah?" she cried, not having the strength to meet his eyes. "Well, Link-san s-saved you, d-didn't he? You should be g-grateful to him, but l-look at you! All you can t-think about is b-being a JERK!" Syaoran's eyes grew gentler. "Sakura..." He could hear the sobs behind her words. Had he really hurt her that much? Great. Just... great. I set out at the beginning of the day to confess my love for her, and by the end we're screaming at each other. "I'm sorry..." Sakura sniffled and finally met his eyes. In that moment, he realized why she was crying. "I'm so sorry, Syaoran-kun," she said, her voice practially a whisper now. "I thought I'd lost you. I can't..." Her fists clenched. Her heart thumped. "...I can't lose you, Syaoran-kun. I just can't." Syaoran approached her and took her into his arms, hoping they were warm and comforting as that of a parent. "Sakura..." "I'm so sorry, Syaoran-kun. I don't deserve you. I don't deserve this." "Well, I'm the one that got upset. I don't deserve YOU, Sakura." Sakura hugged him. "Aww. What a nice ending for this scene." Both Sakura and Syaoran jumped. "T-Tomoyo-chan!" cried Sakura, looking up again with another sniffle. Tomoyo smiled slyly. "I caught it all on tape!" she sang. Syaoran's face flushed. Sakura fell over. "H-hoeee... T-Tomoyo... chan..." ((god that's long o.o Link's just standing there, I guess xD I was inspired by Kamichama Karin, how Kazune and Karin fight ))

Link had watched the whole thing silently. And suddenly.. "THE RANCH!" Link sprinted to the field and was relieved to see the ranch still standing, unfortunately, there was also a group of monsters approaching it. "Why did I have to go into here mode?" Link groaned. "FARORES WIND!" Link warped to the pathway that led to the ranch and drew his bow. Nocking a light arrow, he aimed into the center of the group, and fired. The light energy from the arrow was more than enough to defeat the monsters. "The others mill be following me any minute now, to see what happened." Link remained on guard until the group of three arrived.

Syaoran had seen Link's blast of wind from afar watched in awe; Sakura was too busy letting out the last of her tears. Finally she wiped her eyes on her sleeve and announced that she was ready to go. Sakura, Tomoyo, and Syaoran ran to catch up with Link. But when they arrived...
"Where's Kero-chan?" piped Tomoyo. "Wasn't he with us before?"
Sakura opened and closed her mouth several times. "Oh, no... Kero-chan..."
Syaoran put his head in his hands. Great. Losing the Beast of the Seal? That's the last thing we need right now. And Sakura had just calmed down, too!

Link stared blankly at the kids. "How could he possibly get lost?" his voice betrayed his exasperation.

Sakura shrugged. "I don't know!" Her voice was very high-pitched and defensive. This was getting to be WAY to much in one day. "Maybe he... didn't see where we were going or something!"
"Well, Kero-chan IS a very powerful magical creature," Tomoyo announced, trying to assuage Sakura's fears. "I'm sure he's fine, and he'll catch up to us soon." Sakura looked like she was on the brink of tears again. Ooh. Not good. Tomoyo looked to Syaoran for assistance. "Right, Li-kun?"
Syaoran flushed. "Uhh... right, Daidouji-san," he muttered. "Cerberus probably got distracted by cakes or something on the way home."
At this, Sakura smiled, all traces of tears gone from her eyes. "Thank you, Syaoran-kun," she said with a giggle. "You're probably right. You always cheer me up."

Link sighed "I'm sure he'll turn up eventually." Suddenly, he cried out in pain and fell to his knees, clutching his hand, where the Triforce mark was glowing brightly. "He's back." Link's voice was ominous. "He's not alone... Majora... no... impossible.. AGHHHHH!" The Triforce mark glowed so brightly that Sakur, Syaoran and Tomoyo had to shield their eyes. When the light faded, link was breathing heavily and he looked as if he had seen a ghost. "I need to get Malon to the village, now." Link backflipped over the gate to save time, and ran to the house to evacuate the ranch.

The threesome stared after him for a moment. "What was that all about?" asked Sakura, worry heavy in her voice.
Syaoran sighed. "This country's magic is... unstable, somehow. I think this has to do with the magical presence we felt earlier. We don't know anything about this. It's best to just let that tourguide handle it himself."
"But, Syaoran-kun!" cried Sakura. "What if that thing really hurts Link-san? We can't let something bad happen to him!"
Syaoran blinked. Sakura didn't... she didn't like Link, did she? "I'm sure he'll be fine, Sakura," he muttered, keeping his eyes down.
