Kurogane: The demon said, "Give me a sacrifice" right? Shaoran: Yup. Kurogane: And tornados don't speak, right? Shaoran: ....yup. Shaoran: Moreover, the tornado seems to have been in this area for several days already. For a tornado to remain in the same place.... Sakura: I can hear it. Shaoran: Princess? Sakura: It's crying. Page 2 . Kurogane: What? Shaoran: I don't know Shaoran: but.... Shaoran: I've seen the Princess behave like this before, back in Clow Country. Shaoran: The priest told me that the Princess "hears things that don't have voices." Page 3 Sakura: What's wrong? Sakura: Are you lonely? Shaoran: Princess!! Page 4 *Sakura looking stoned* Page 5 Sakura: You can't move? Sakura: Wounded? Sakura: No? Sakura: Because of a great power you can't move, right? Sakura: Beacuse you want to move somewhere else Sakura: You're looking for that great power Sakura: So don't be afraid Sakura: Can you slow your wind a bit? Page 6 *pretty picture* Page 7 Sakura: Thank you Kurogane: Not only can the Princess talk to the dead, she can speak to tornados, huh. . Yukito: Not just people or living things Yukito: The voices of the lonely reach the Princess Page 8 Yukito: The origin of Princess Sakura's power Yukito: is her gentle heart Shaoran: ....yes. . Page 9 Sakura: Just as Shaoran-kun thought Sakura: It seems the demon is the tornado Sakura: But it didn't mean to trouble them Sakura: Because of a great power, it cannot move Sakura: So it's in a pinch. Mokona: Maybe that power is Sakura's feather. Shaoran: Let's get it back. Shaoran: We'll ask them for information thoroughly Shaoran: And collect as much information as we can. After that, we'll search. Sakura: Yes. Kurogane: So it wasn't a demon, huh. Page 10 Mokona: Kurogane's pouting because he didn't get to fight again. Mokona: Kya- the demon's attacking me Kurogane: Just who's the demon! . Mokona: I'm glad the wind's not blowing strong during our return. Sakura: The tornado's slowing it for us. Shaoran: Smoke! Mokona: Maybe they couldn't wait and decided to sacrifice Fye! Mokona: He's probably well-done! Sakura: Fye-san! Page 11 sfx: *beating drums* Fye: A! Fye: Welcome back! Kurogane: What the hell are you doing? Fye: Ahahahahaha! Fye: They taught me-- Fye: It's a ceremonial dance. Mokona: cool cool! I'll dance too. Mokona: Why the ceremony? Fye: See-- Page 12 Exclamation: The feather!? Kurogane: So it was here, huh. Fye: These people had it. Fye: It fell and they picked it up. Shaoran: And that was about the time the demon appeared, right? Fuzzy things: Really? Fuzzy things: Maybe Page 13 Shaoran: The demon was a tornado Fye: Aa-- so that was it after all. Fye: That's what I thought after listening to these people talk Kurogane: So the tornado did say to hand over sacrifices? Fye: Well Fye: Okay, one more time Furry things: That terrible thing is strong Furry things: Really strong Furry things: It blew our home away. Felled everything. Furry things: We wouldn't win even if we fought it. Furry things: If we can't beat it, what about giving a sacrifice? Furry things: That might work. Furry things: That might work. Furry thigns: If we give it something tasty, then we might be all right. Furry tings: We'll be fine. Furry things: All right. Furry things: Who? Furry things: Who? Furry things: That terrible thing, maybe? Furry things: That terrible thing! Page 14 Furry things: The demon said that if we give it a tasty sacrifice, it will stop its destruction! Kurogane: It didn't say that! Fye: Here, Shaoran-kun. Shaoran: Thank you. . Page 15 *Sakura receives the feather* Page 16 Furry things: A tornado---! . . Page 17-18 *flowers are blown to Sakura and Shaoran* Page 19 Shaoran: These flowers . . Shaoran: Are perhaps a present from the tornado. *END* Bottom text on last page tells us that CLAMP will be taking a break, and that there will be a nice center color spread and lots of pages for the combination issue 36&37. So basically...that's about two weeks without Tsubasa. O_o;; How will I survive?
