The Forgotten Cards
Pikachu
Part 10

Saturday July 17, 2004

This summer is going by too fast. I don’t want to go back to school! What? 
It may not start until September 1, but I’m still not looking forward to it. 
Anyway, enjoy! ^_^

	“Is it just me or is everything hazy this morning?” Sakura asked when she 
stepped out of the tent. Everything was fogged over and Sakura could barley 
see what was in front of her.

	“It’s not just you.” Li coughed as he stepped out into the polluted air.

	“Ewwwwwwwwwwwww. It stinks out here!” Ash exclaimed.

	“Did you smell yourself again?” Misty asked slyly which began the morning 
fight between the two.

	“Kero, Yue. Get out her. Quick!” Madison shouted. Kero looked like he 
didn’t want to get up.

	“What was the big rush to get me out here???” He asked grumpily. Sakura 
grabbed him.

	“Whoa kid! What are you doing?” He shouted. Yue watched, amused.

	“Do you sense a Clow Card?” Sakura asked. Kero looked at her funny.

	“No. Do you?” Kero asked. She set him down and turned to the others.

	“Li, Yue, Misty. Do ANY of you sense one?” She asked, annoyed. They all 
shook their heads. Sakura growled.

	“Maybe your imagining things?” Kero said.

	“I AM NOT IMAGINING THINGS!” Sakura shouted. To prove it, she whipped out 
The Windy card and held it up.

	“Once I release Windy to blow this smoke away, you’ll see I’m not lying. 
Windy! Come to my aid! Release your power and blow away this smoke!” Sakura 
yelled.

	“Sakura! That’s it! It’s The Smoke card! It can’t be sensed by anyone 
except the captor of the cards!” Yue yelled. Sakura slapped her head.

	“That makes sense. But Windy isn’t working!” Sakura yelled. Just then, the 
smoke gathered into a huge ball and darted after Sakura. She dodged it.

	“Here we go again. Fly!” Sakura yelled. She dodged the smoke again but it 
made a quick abrupt-face and slammed into Sakura, surrounding her in smoke.

	“Sakura!” Madison yelled. It didn’t look good. Inside, Sakura was 
struggling to breath.

	“Think Sakura.” She told herself. “What can you use to shield yourself?” 
She thought for a second then it came to her.

	“That’s it! Shield Card! Surround me to protect me from Smoke! Shield!” She 
yelled. The bubble-like card blasted from the card and cleared all smoke 
away from Sakura. Finally, she could breathe again. She darted out of the 
cloud and it followed her.

	“Kero! What should I use??!! This card seems unbeatable!” Sakura yelled 
down as she dodged The Smoke card again.

	“Try Water! Smoke can be washed away with water!” Kero yelled up to her. 
She nodded.

	“Right. Water, come to my aid!  Slam Smoke to the ground! Water!” Sakura 
commanded. Jets of water sprayed from the card as Water did its work. The 
Smoke Card was pinned to the ground and Sakura smiled.

	“Bingo! Now catch it!” Misty yelled up to her.”

	“What? You though I was going to have crackers with it?” She laughed.

	“JUST CATCH IT ALREADY!” Ash yelled up to her.

	“Oh fine. Ruin my fun. Smoke Card! Return to your power confined! Smoke 
Card!” Sakura yelled. The Smoke Card struggled against the power but lost. 
It sped into the card and at once, the card stopped shimmering.
