"So, what are the Clow Cards?"

Pheebs and Yue had found an abandoned house just off the caves of the Everfree. Yue was getting softer towards this pony, and he could feel it inside his mind. Maybe she wasn't so bad after all.

"My Master, Clow Reed created them, as did he create me and another guardian, and his name is Keroberos. The Clow Cards are spirits that used to wonder the world in mischief, before my Master locked them away into cards. Myself and Keroberos are guardians of the sun and Moon. He is the keeper of the key of the book of Clow, and shall choose a person to take over, when Clow Reed,"

He cut off as the truth came to him.

Pheebs looked up at him. She made her choice, and spread her wings.

She flew up and looked at him in the eyes.

His own eyes were sharp and some would say unforgiving, but she saw something else in there. Sadness.

"When he passes away?"

She finished softly.

"Yes."

Yue replied, silver hair falling across this eyes. As soon as it did, Pheebs moved her hoof to move it away.

A loud crack of thunder was heard overhead, and Yue snapped his head toward the sky.

"Move."

His tone had a warning to it. Sharp.

"MOVE!"

A stream of lightening headed for the lilac pony, but Yue got there first. He picked up the pony like she was nothing and lifted her into the air just in time.

Pushing his hand forward, his hand glowed and a silver light shone ahead of them. The thunder hit it, but got no further.

Pheebs blinked, watching in wonder as Yues shield stopped the Thunder.

"Stay here."

He said as he lowered her onto a trees branch. He took off again and quickly rushed away, casting something else into the sky.

It widened and to her amazement the thing that was casting the thunder lowered down from the sky.

It had the form of a wolf, and his coat was sharp and looked like it would rip out anything in sight.

Yue didn't seem shocked however. If anything, he looked very annoyed.

"Return to your card, Thunder, and do not allow me to see you in your true form here again."

Pheebs blinked her eyes as she saw the wolf-shape dissolve into smoke and travel into the wind.

The moments ticked by. After a bit, Pheebs opened the talk.

"Was that,"

Yue nodded.

"A Clow Card."
