Chapter 16
Black Adam looked at the frozen wizard. For an instant, their eyes met squarely, then he turned to The Darkness and Dr. Sivana. "The magic lightning will open the portal right here!" as Adam pointed to a flat spot along the cave wall.
Almost on cue, Sivana pulled out another sinister-looking weapon. "I was going to use this on those cheesy Marvels but now I have a use for it here. This is a lightning reflector, used from certain elements I obtained from the past, present and future. I almost defeated the Marvel Family years ago with this but as always, they got lucky. I'll use its ray to deflect the lightning when you shout his name, Black Adam...right into the wall and activate the portal to the Arcademan Universe!"
The Darkness looked pleased."When I reunited with my other self, two worlds will fall. Then the third will also be united. When I'm whole, nothing will stop me! You two shall be rewarded when I present you this shattered world for you to do as you see fit. Now, let nothing stop us!!!" On that note, Black Adam positioned himself as Sivana fired his ray at him. Once bathed in its light, Adam shouted out the magic word...
SHAZAM!
The lightning came down and deflected off the shield, then struck the wall. After intense moments, a low growl began to echo throughout the cave, getting louder until finally the wall itself crumbles apart to reveal a portal...to the Arcademan Universe.
"YES!!! Now is the time for all to cower under the forces of The Darkness!!!" However before he could do anything else, moving at the speed of light, Black Adam dove straight into the portal and now, out of the range of Sivana's reflector shield, yelled out once again "SHAZAM! The lightning struck him and the portal at the same time and when the smoke cleared, both were gone.
"NOOOO!!!" That double-crossing bastard!!!" Then The Darkness turned to Dr. Sivana. "Were you in on this, little man?!!"
"No! I swear!!! I had no idea Adam would do that!!! He always was a loner. He's the type..." and Sivana was interrupted by a roar of thunder. The wizard Shazam was free and he was not happy.
"You two are trespassing on The Rock of Eternity!!! BE GONE!!!" Lightning stabs both The Darkness and Sivana and then they were gone. The wizard looked at the blank wall where the portal was.
"I hope Black Adam suceeds...if not, the future of three universes shall fall under The Darkness." and sat back down on his throne, weakened from his ordeal.
Tomoeda, Japan...
Sakura, along with her newfound allies Yususke Urimeshi and Botan, arrived from England and just in time as the Shadow Creatures were running rampant around town. Syaoran, Kerberus and Yue were fighting against them and holding their own.
"Syaoran!!! I'm back!!!" yelled Sakura as she manuevered her way through the dark images, with Yusuke using his fighting skills to beat down a path toward him. Then everyone was once again united as a team.
"We can beat these shadows however for every one we destroy, two more take their place." said Syaoran. "Perhaps if there was a way to get them all in one spot..."
"Okay...let's herd them up then." said Yusuke as the others nodded in agreement. For the next several minutes, between Syaoran's spells, Yue's light arrows, Kerberus' fireballs and Yusuke's shotgun blasts, the Shadows were all forced together in front of the same hospital where Tomoyo was staying after here accident in the previous battle. Sakura pulls out a card and strikes it:
SHIELD!!!
Sakura's shield magic surrounds the entire clan of shadows as she looked over to Yusuke, who was charging up with power. "Sakura! Drop your shield...NOW!" As she recalled The Shield card, Yusuke let loose...
SPIRIT SHOTGUN!!!
Blasts of high intensity energy beams shoot out from his right finger and strikes every shadow figure. In a blink of an eye, all the shadows are gone.
"Way to go guys!" As the team looked up from the upper floor of the hospital, there was Tomoyo, with her video camera poking out of the window. "I got it all on tape...Sakura was lovely as always in battle!" A embarrased look came over Sakura's face, then from the corner of her eye, she sees him...THE DARKNESS. He begins to move away down the street from the battle site.
"Follow him!!!" yelled Syaoran as the group took off after him and soon, as the heroes turned the corner, The Darkness stood with more shadow creatures in front of a well-to-do home, which for some reason, stood out from its surrounding however in the heat of battle, no one noticed that fact.
"Enough running! I may not be at full power but I am more than powerful enough to destroy the likes of you, legacy of Clow Reed!!!" snarled The Darkness but before he could act, a bright light stabbed through the heart of Darkness. Not knowing what was about to happen, Sakura reached into her pocket and pushed the button on the eight-sided star pendant in there.
"Such power...why did I not sense it before now?!!" The Darkness teleports out as the rest of his army is evaporated in the light. Everyone turned to Sakura, who looked as surprised as everyone else. "Don't look at me. I didn't do that!" Then a voice came out from the house. "I did that." as a lady walked out of the house, accompanied by two small girls and a teenage boy trailing the three.
"The Darkness coming here...it was all a coincidence?" said the Cardcaptor.
"There is no such thing as coincidence. There is only hitsuzen." said the lady. My name is Yuuko and the three with me...Watanuki Kimihiro and the twins Maru and Moro. If you wish, I can rid the world of The Dark Being...for a price!"
