Welcome to Gaia! ::

Akira appeared in the midst of the two of them. In his hand he held the Transfer Card, so apparently he used it to bring himself there. He was once again in his costume. He walked over to Sakura. "Kinomoto-sama, are you ready?" he asked her, "I have had more of my Cards sent to me. We may begin your training as soon as you are ready."

"Very well," he said as he put the Transfer Card back in his pocket. "Your training mission for today is to keep people safe from a certain threat," he continued as he pulled out a new Oni Card, "This is the threat. I do not wish to do this, but I must." The Card had the picture of a snake on it. On the scroll beneath it read The Poison. Akira threw it out in front of him, and it floated there for a moment. "Poison, come forth and attack those who live here. As your creator, I command this. Release!" he said as he struck it. The snake that was on the Card appeared and quickly sped off toward the shopping district. "Go now Kinomoto-sama," he said pointing in that direction, "It won't hurt anyone too badly. I will step in only if things get out of hand." He jumped into a tree above and began to follow his Card.

Sakura's eyes widened as the snake sped towards the shopping district. Sakura skated after it while her mind thought quickly.
I have to get the people away so that they can't see me...and so that the snake can't get them...But I don't have the sleep card...Oh wait! Maybe...
Sakura pulled her key off of her neck, "The key that holds the power of the stars. Reveal your true form to me. I, Sakura, commands thee under covenant. Release!" The key before her expanded into the star staff.
Sakura grabbed the staff and then reached into her backpack and pulled out a card, The Storm.
"If I create a large enough storm, the people might go inside." Sakura thought. She tossed the card up into the air and hit it with her staff, "Storm!"
The Storm spilled from the card and sped towards the sky at an incredible speed, moments later the clouds turned dark and it started to rain hard out, it was windy and thunder could be heard and lightning could be seen.
As Sakura neared the shopping district she saw that her plan was working.
"Now...how to catch the snake..." Sakura said. She then pulled out a card from her backpack.
"I know that Wood doesn't like to fight...but maybe it'll work." Sakura said.
Sakura tossed the card up into the air and hit it with her staff and vines sped towards the snake.

Sakura had walked herself to the park and she smiled lightly and walked over to a bench and sat down swinging her legs a bit.
"I wonder why it is that April doesn't like Akira." She said to herself, "He's never done anything bad...at least not that I've seen."
Sakura sighed and pulled the key off her neck and looked at it, "And I still have to get my cards back." She said closing her hand around the key.
