Card Crazy 2: Power to the Cards

(BiggerBetterBarbie)

Inside the home of Sakura, Tomoyo had walked around nearly single room and searched through every nook and cranny she possibly could for something.
"Sakura! Where are you!?" Tomoyo shouted. The two were playing hide and seek to try and pass the time while Sakura's father and brother were both away again. Tomoyo clearly was getting frustrated having spent almost ten minutes trying to find Sakura, but with no luck. Little did Tomoyo realize just exactly where Sakura had been hiding.

And I do literally mean little. ^____^

Underneath one of the couches in the living room, Sakura, shrunken down to a couple inches tall, snickered every now and then as under the couch was likely the last place Tomoyo would ever look for her. She almost dropped her wand (or key to be politically correct) in all the excitement, but she kept on watching as the giant Tomoyo walked around the living room in frustration. Finally, she could see her stomp the floor in frustration.
"Okay, Sakura! Come out, come out wherever you are! I give up!" Tomoyo shouted. Sakura smiled and then walked out from underneath the couch. She then held her wand high in the air.
"Little! Reverse effect!" Sakura shouted. Soon, the wand began glowing with magic energy as it surrounded itself and Sakura. Soon, she grew back to her normal size. Tomoyo quickly turned around and noticed Sakura standing right there like nothing happened.
"Here I am, Tomoyo!" Sakura said.
"Sakura! Where were you? I looked everywhere in the house to find you!" Tomoyo said.
"You sure you looked everywhere?" Sakura asked.
"Well, yeah! Every room, everything I could get my hands on..." Tomoyo said. Sakura smiled again as she pointed to the couch she was hiding under.
"You sure you checked underneath the couch?" Sakura said.
"Huh? Under the couch? What are you talking about?" Tomoyo asked. Sakura then decided to reveal her secret. She held her wand up in the air.
"Little!" Sakura shouted. The magic surrounded Sakura once again and she soon began to shrink. Very quickly she was back down to a couple inches tall, looking up at her gigantic friend. Tomoyo soon caught on to how Sakura did it. She got down on her knees and faced her friend.
"Oh you little sneak you! You cheated!" Tomoyo shouted.
"Well, you didn't say anything about not using my cards! Gotta make sure you say that since I am a master CardCaptor!" Sakura said. Indeed, it had been a couple weeks since Sakura sealed the powers of every single card within her body. Being able to absorb all these powers and controlling them only with the purpose of protecting the world earned the blessings of both Cerberus and Yue, making Sakura a master CardCaptor.

Tomoyo smiled, acknowledging her mistake in underestimating her powerful friend.
"You're right... I guess I did forget about that, didn't I?" Tomoyo said. Sakura then held her wand up in the air again.
"Little! Reverse effect!" Sakura shouted. Just like that, Sakura returned to her normal size. Tomoyo looked up at her friend as she was still down on her knees.
"Oh good... I'm glad you are back to normal. I must confess I'm not used to seeing you so tiny." Tomoyo said as Sakura helped her up.
"I know, kinda unlike last year, right?" Sakura said.
"Oh yes... yes... oh, Sakura. That was one of the most memorable days of my life. Being able to walk on your gigantic body and seeing you so big and saving the city from Meilin. I can never ever forget that." Tomoyo said.
"Well... okay then." Sakura said. She could sense Tomoyo going into one of her moods again as close as the two were. Just then, Tomoyo rested her hands on Sakura's shoulders.
"Sakura... please! I want you to shrink me so I can relive that day! I want to surrender myself to you as a tiny slave!" Tomoyo said.
"Tomoyo, please... don't you think you're kinda pushing yourself? Besides, you said you would back off on this size-changing business!" Sakura said.
"You're right. I'm so sorry. I hope you will find it in your heart to forgive me." Tomoyo said. As she bowed her head in forgiveness, Sakura was almost feeling bad for her good friend. She began to think maybe she should fulfill her friend's wish by shrinking her and letting her crawl around her body.

Then she looked out the window at the city far off in the background. A different thought entered her mind. One of the things she wanted to do so badly again now that she was a master CardCaptor was use the Big card to become a giantess again and walk around the city from a new perspective, and of course without the threat of a giant Meilin like what happened last year. Heck, Meilin and Li weren't even in Japan anymore, having moved back home to Hong Kong. Anyway, Sakura traded looks between the city and her friend. And then she looked at her wand... Cerberus, considering he was the true form of Kero, she was sure wouldn't mind if he were present, but she hoped to the heavens that what she was about to do wouldn't fire up the wrath of Yue.
"I tell you what, Tomoyo... there's this thing I've been wanting to do for a while. Would it be okay if I grew instead?" Sakura said. Tomoyo almost gasped in excitement, and she once again placed her hands on Sakura's shoulders.
"Oh Sakura! To see your head touching the skies and you with the neighborhood at your feet would be just as exciting an experience as shrinking down to your feet!" Tomoyo said.
"I was hoping you'd like that. But I have one condition." Sakura said.
"Huh? What condition?" Tomoyo asked. Sakura smiled, not afraid to make the suggestion she was about to make.
"Tomoyo... I would like you to grow with me." Sakura said. Tomoyo stepped back feeling surprised.
"What!? You mean... you want me to grow with you?" Tomoyo said.
"Yes." Sakura said.
"But, Sakura... I... I couldn't, I really..." Tomoyo said.
"Tomoyo, please. You've done nothing but admire me whenever I am bigger than you, and I respect that. But very rarely have I gotten the chance to look at you from a different perspective... and besides, I think it's time you see what I've been through." Sakura said.
"You really believe so?" Tomoyo said.
"Yes I do. It would make me feel happy if you would join me in being giant-sized." Sakura said.
"Okay... anything that makes you happy I will go along with." Tomoyo said.
"Cool. Come on, we better get outside." Sakura said. The two girls then proceeded to walk outside Sakura's home. Sakura put on her yellow sandals and one of her hats that Tomoyo had made for her while Tomoyo put on her socks and shoes before they both walked outside (you can imagine for yourself what else Sakura and Tomoyo were wearing!).

Once outside, Sakura looked around to see nobody was on their street to watch the growth show, at least at first. As small as the neighborhood the two girls lived in, it wouldn't be long before the sight of two 100-foot-tall girls would catch everyone's attention. Sakura looked over at Tomoyo.
"Are you ready?" Sakura said. Tomoyo took a deep breath. She was a bit nervous having never gone through the feeling of growing before.
"Ready when you are, my friend." Tomoyo said.
"Okay, hold on tight." Sakura said. Tomoyo walked behind Sakura and wrapped her arms around her stomach area. Once Sakura could feel Tomoyo's tight grip, she held her wand up.
"Big! Turn the two of us into towers that loom the skies!" Sakura shouted. The magic then seeped out of the wand once more, surrounding Sakura and also Tomoyo since she was in such close proximity. Both girls soon were growing.

Finally, both stopped growing at a little over 100 feet tall. Tomoyo stepped away from Sakura and got her first real look at the neighborhood from high up in the air.
"Oh dear... this is... this is incredible!" Tomoyo said.
"It is, isn't it? I've been getting comfortable with this feeling ever since the first time." Sakura said. Tomoyo then gave Sakura a big hug.
"Oh Sakura! Thank you so much! You are the best friend anybody could ever have! I would die doing anything for you from this day forward!" Tomoyo shouted.
"Tomoyo, you're too kind." Sakura said as she patted Tomoyo on the back.
"So... what should we do next? Maybe we can find Rika, Naoko, and Chiharu and show them how big we are!" Tomoyo said.
"Actually, I was thinking we go straight into the city." Sakura said.
"Really?" Tomoyo said.
"Yes. Besides... we're starting to spook this town a little." Sakura said, pointing down at the many little people that were running out of their houses to get a look at the two young giantesses.
"Yeah, I guess you are right. Come on, last one to the city is a giant sloth!" Tomoyo said as she started running down the streets that would guide the two girls into the city. Tomoyo didn't seem to notice the many large footprints she was leaving on the road, not to mention the many people or cars she narrowly stepped on.
"Tomoyo, wait! Watch where you're going!" Sakura shouted. Finally, Sakura had no choice but to run after her friend at the same speed. Sakura tried her best to be a bit more careful, trying not to step on anything along the way. The two giant girls soon disappeared from the neighborhood as quickly as they showed up as they made their way into the city.

Only a few minutes ago, the city was relatively calm and peaceful, but once Tomoyo's giant head peeked its way out into view from one of the glass buildings, pandemonium ensued.
"Peek-a-boo!" Tomoyo said with a smile. She then stepped away from the building, revealing her full 100-feet-tall body. She walked very slowly down the road, giving everyone a chance to get away from her and at the same time allowing her to watch the tiny people in their state of panic.
"Don't worry, I won't hurt any of you. I promise!" Tomoyo said. She even went as far as bowed down towards the tiny people. Still, many of them weren't going to stick around to see what a young giantess like Tomoyo would do. A car soon bumped right into Tomoyo's right shoe, and although it didn't hurt, she still noticed it. Before the driver could jump out, however, Tomoyo was able to pick up the car and hold it at eye level.
"Hey, you really gotta be careful! You could've gotten hurt, and I never would've forgiven myself." Tomoyo said. She then slowly placed the car back down on the ground and watched as it sped away into the distance. After watching the car fade off into the distance, she looked by her feet and could see two cars parked on the street with nobody in them. Seeing these cars gave her an idea.
"Hmmm... I haven't played with toy cars since I was a baby girl." Tomoyo said to herself. She then sat down on the pavement, causing quite a tremor as big as she was, and then took one car in each of her hands. She simply waved the cars around in the air, keeping a close watch on one at a time.
"Wheeeeeee! Here go the two flying cars, on their way to work!" Tomoyo said. She giggled in happiness from the fun she was having, almost too much to resist really! The two cars almost collided with each other when Tomoyo took them to the air again.
"Uh oh, almost an accident there." Tomoyo said. But finally when she swung the cars upward one more time, she lost her grip on one of them. Tomoyo gasped as she watched one of the cars go flying through the air. She feared the worst as it appeared to be heading right for one of the glass buildings, but luckily, gravity took its toll on the car as it smacked down hard on the sidewalk, landing on its wheels but naturally all bent out of shape. Tomoyo breathed a sigh of relief, especially since the tiny people had managed to scramble out of the way.
"Oops... I'm sorry everyone! Please forgive me!" Tomoyo said, once again bowing her head even as she continued to sit on her behind. She placed the other car she had been holding back down on the road, and was now looking at a group of people (all dressed in business suits, it would appear).

"Maybe I should play with some people to be safe." Tomoyo said. She reached down and scooped up a handful of these people. All of them stayed as still as they could, knowing one wrong step could send them down to the ground below. Tomoyo then got back on her feet, using a nearby crane from a construction site to help her up.
"Hello! I'm Tomoyo. How are you all doing today?" Tomoyo said. Many of the folks in her hand didn't say anything. Some just gave random responses that she didn't really hear as big as she was. The giantess just smiled down at them.
"You're all so cute. I wish I could take you home with me." Tomoyo said. She then felt compelled to find some more of these cute little people. That's when she walked over to a nearby building that was half her size. She then gently ripped the roof off this building and could see at least a few people wondering what was going on. Of course, before they could run away, Tomoyo grabbed them and dropped them into the hand with the rest of her captured people. Her hand was getting pretty full, so she felt like storing these people away for the time being.
"Hmmm... I know where you all can be safe." Tomoyo said. She then stretched one of the pockets on her shirt and dropped most of the people inside. A few handful of people were still sitting on her hand, and she dropped those people onto the top of her head, trapping them in her hair.

Meanwhile, the giant-sized Sakura was wading her way through the city, trying to keep the damage as minimal as possible, but that was no easy task given how big Sakura was. Through all this, though, she kept a tight grip on the wand that had grown with her.
"(sigh) This city is so busy nowadays... you'd think they'd keep things a little simple in case of giant girls like myself and Tomoyo coming." Sakura said. After coming up on a split in the road, she looked down the right side and could see Tomoyo playing with the little people.
"I was afraid of that." Sakura said to herself as she walked her way towards her fellow giantess.
"Tomoyo!" Sakura said. Tomoyo immediately looked up and faced her friend.
"Oh, hi Sakura! I'm so glad you could make it." Tomoyo said.
"Tomoyo... we didn't come here to play with the little people. Please put them back." Sakura said.
"Oh come on, Sakura! I promise I'll play nice!" Tomoyo said.
"Please... Tomoyo. I'm asking you kindly to let these people go." Sakura said.
"Alright... sorry everyone. Maybe another time we can play with each other." Tomoyo said. She emptied her pockets full of little people onto her hands, which she then emptied down onto the roads. Tomoyo waved off these many people as they ran off into the distance.

"I'm sorry, Sakura... they were just so cute from up here!" Tomoyo said.
"I know they were. Maybe later on we can play with a new batch of these people... together even!" Sakura said.
"Oh, Sakura... that would be the most wonderful thing to ever happen to me. I cannot thank you enough." Tomoyo said. She took one of Sakura's hands and stood close to her friend in saying those words. Sakura lightly pushed her away.
"Okay, Tomoyo. Fine with me!" Sakura said with a smile. She looked in the other direction, only to have the sun shining right in her eyes.
"Wow... that sun is really bright today!" Sakura said as she shielded her eyes. Tomoyo looked in Sakura's direction and had to shield her eyes as well.
"Yes, you're right. I guess I didn't notice that before... I was playing with the little people!" Tomoyo said with excitement.
"I'm sure you were." Sakura said. She then looked down at her wand and showed a smile to Tomoyo.
"Sakura, what are you thinking?" Tomoyo asked.
"Let's see if this works... Cloud!" Sakura shouted as she aimed her wand up in the clear blue sky, near where the sun was shining. The wave of magic came flying out of the wand and flew up into the sky, and the magic then started to form into clouds. Soon, the clouds merged together, covering the sky in a series of thick clouds that didn't give the sun any chance of shining through.

Sakura smiled over seeing her plan play out perfectly. Tomoyo couldn't resist hugging her friend in excitement.
"Sakura! That was so cool! You could create clouds just with a flick of your key!" Tomoyo said.
"Well, yeah. But at least that should keep us from getting sunburn for a while." Sakura said. Just then, Tomoyo glanced down again and could see a group of teenage boys staring up at her.
"Oh, hello down there! You guys must think I'm very cute looking." Tomoyo said, deciding to strike a couple poses down at the guys. Sakura looked at the boys too, and she looked very carefully into their eyes. They weren't staring at Tomoyo... they were staring up Tomoyo. Up her skirt, to be exact. This really got under Sakura's skin. This is exactly why she secretly swore to never wear a skirt whenever she uses the Big card.
"Tomoyo, they're staring in the wrong place." Sakura said.
"Huh? What do you mean?" Tomoyo said. She finally looked down to see the noses bleeding on these guys, a clear sign they've been in pervert mode. Rather than scream around crying that a bunch of perverts looked up her skirt, Tomoyo stayed in mature mode and kept her composure.
"Oh dear..." Tomoyo said, with her hands on her face like she was about to blush in embarrassment. Sakura planted her yellow sandals forward, knocking the boys down to their feet before they all got up and ran away. Sakura held up her wand, ready to cast another spell.
"You guys are so hot... Firey!" Sakura shouted. She pointed her wand at the four boys, and then their shoes caught on fire. Sakura and Tomoyo both laughed as the four teenage boys were running more frantically than ever.

"I really gave them a hot foot, didn't I?" Sakura said.
"Yes. Thank you so much, Sakura. I guess I should be careful with the people I play with." Tomoyo said.
"Well, it's okay, Tomoyo. At least I'm here with you." Sakura said.
"Yes, and to be just as big as you are. That's something I will always remember." Tomoyo said. Just then, a loud series of sirens suddenly went off not far from where the two giantesses were standing. Sakura looked down the road, where it split left and right, and could see three fire trucks and a few police cars speeding to the right. Even from several yards away, the sirens were blaring through the sky. Sakura and Tomoyo could really hear them as they watched the vehicles drive away. Sakura wanted to make sure Tomoyo could hear her just fine.
"Silent!" Sakura shouted as she held her wand up in the air. A wave of magic flew all around the girls, and just like that, all noise was being blocked out, leaving Sakura and Tomoyo standing there in silence.
"Do you see that?" Sakura said, pointing out the fire trucks and then at a big cloud of smoke that was rising up from one city section.
"Yes. That must be a big fire!" Tomoyo said.
"We better help them, don't you think?" Sakura asked.
"Yeah, that is a good idea. As big as we are, we could be very helpful." Tomoyo said.
"Alright, let's go. We can follow the sounds of the sirens. Oh, and Tomoyo... please watch where you're stepping!" Sakura said.
"Of course, Sakura. I will." Tomoyo said. Sakura then canceled the Silent spell, allowing the sounds of the city and the sirens to enter her ears once again. The two giantesses then carefully stepped their way across the road on their way to the disaster scene.

And it really was a disaster scene. The flames were bursting out of the building, rising high above its rooftops. The firefighters were doing their best to put the blaze out, but it just kept flaring back up. As one of the firefighters put it, it was only a matter of time before the building would surely explode completely and take the city block with it.
Finally, the two giantesses made their way to the disaster scene. Even at their huge size, both girls were picking up the foul stench of the burning smoke.
"Yuck! Even at 100 feet tall, the smell of a burning building is still overpowering!" Sakura said.
"I guess some things never change even if you are giant-sized." Tomoyo said. Sakura looked down to see the many people coughing and wheezing having just escaped from their fiery deaths.
"Tomoyo, help these people out. I'm going to put out the fire with a little clow card power!" Sakura said.
"You got it, Sakura!" Tomoyo said. Sakura stepped forward and was standing not too far away from the burning building while Tomoyo was just slightly away, scooping up the people and comforting them any way she could. Sakura then held her wand up in the air once again.
"Rain! I call upon your powers! Help heal this building of its fate of burning to dust!" Sakura shouted. Another wave of magic came out of Sakura's wand, and it went flying into the cloudy sky. Soon, the clouds darkened very quickly, and it started to rain. Not just rain, but a downpour! Everyone was getting soaked instantly from the heavy rain that fell from the sky... but it was serving its purpose. The flames around the building were beginning to diminish, and with the combined effort from the firefighters, the fire was soon gone for good.
"Rain! Stop!" Sakura shouted as she held her wand up. Naturally, the rain stopped just as quickly as it arrived, and the skies returned to its normal cloudy self. Of course, as big as Sakura was, her act of magic did not go unnoticed and everyone, especially the firefighters, were cheering loudly for her. Sakura couldn't help but bow in front of these people.
"Gee... thanks everyone. I was only trying to help, after all." Sakura said. She then looked over her shoulder at Tomoyo, who was also applauding for her friend, before walking over to her side.

"That was incredible, Sakura! It's too bad I didn't bring my video camera with me." Tomoyo said.
"Yeah, I know. Say, where are those people I asked you to take care of?" Sakura asked.
"Huh? What people?" Tomoyo asked.
"Tomoyo... I asked you to help take care of those poor people who came from the burning building." Sakura said.
"Oh... those people! Well, um... they were fine so I decided to let them go." Tomoyo said. Sakura could tell just from looking in Tomoyo's eyes that she was lying. Tomoyo was never really good at making up stories, that was for sure.
"Well, there is one way to find out." Sakura said. She then pointed the wand right at her best friend.
"Wait... Sakura! What are you doing?" Tomoyo asked.
"Libra! Did Tomoyo really let those people go?" Sakura shouted. Her wand lit up again and this time a blue aura began to surround Tomoyo. It moved up and down her body, stopping to hover around her brain for a few seconds. Finally, the wand mentally told Sakura the answer, which was a flat out no. Sakura settled down with the wand and walked towards her friend.
"Tomoyo, hold still for a moment." Sakura said.
"Okay." Tomoyo said. Sakura then searched around Tomoyo's body, getting down to one of her shirt pockets before she felt something. She reached inside... and pulled out quite a few of the tiny people. She then picked up on some faint screaming sounds. She reached up into Tomoyo's hair, and there were more people. Tomoyo finally relented and helped Sakura gather the rest of the shrunken people, about ten in all, and rested them in one of Sakura's hands.
"Tomoyo... you didn't do it again, did you?" Sakura said, referring to how Tomoyo was trying to hide little people from Sakura's eyes so she could perhaps take them home with her.
"I'm sorry, Sakura. I just can't resist! It's so much fun collecting these little people!" Tomoyo said.
"Yeah, but they're just regular people! We can't keep them!" Sakura said. She almost felt compelled to bonk her friend on the head, but she looked at the guilt in her eyes and felt compelled to make her feel better, at least a little bit.
"But if you really want to play with them, I suppose I can play along too." Sakura said.
"You will!? You'd really do that for me?" Tomoyo said.
"Sure, I guess." Sakura said, smiling.
"Oh, Sakura! Thank you! Thank you so much! This is the happiest day of my life!" Tomoyo said as she opened her arms and gave Sakura the biggest hug imaginable. Sakura almost dropped the little people in her hand from the sudden hug, but she was able to keep them under control. She lowered her hand just enough for the people to land safely on her feet and she let them run away to safety while she got back to hugging Tomoyo.

Finally, after the hugging stopped, Sakura right away thought of an idea to get as many little people as they could.
"Okay, how about this? We both take sixty seconds to grab as many people as we can. Whoever has the most people can keep their batch." Sakura said.
"Hmmm... that does sound good to me. I'm sure I can get more people than you can!" Tomoyo said.
"Alright then. We'll meet back here... go!" Sakura shouted. Tomoyo walked away from Sakura, scooping up the many little people along the way. Once Tomoyo went to the right, concealing herself behind a row of buildings, Sakura knew the perfect trick to catch as many people as she could with seemingly little effort. She held her wand up in the air once more.
"Dash!" Sakura said. A wave of magic began to swirl all around Sakura, particularly at her feet. Once the magic was gone, Sakura found herself walking at a much faster pace than normal... she was even picking up humans faster than Tomoyo could ever hope to. And yet, the magic also made sure these people were unharmed.

Sixty seconds soon passed, and the two giantesses met once again in the spot Sakura said they would meet. Tomoyo held up her hands, which contained about ten people. She also noticed Sakura was holding onto one of her hats upside down instead of wearing it on her head.
"Well, here's my bundle. How did you do?" Tomoyo said.
"Do you really want to see?" Sakura said with a rather sly smile. She held her hat in front of Tomoyo's eyes... there had to be at least 50 people inside that hat!
"What the...!? How did you get that many?" Tomoyo said.
"Well, let's just say I was a bit quick on the draw." Sakura said, twirling her wand once in the air with just one hand. Tomoyo immediately caught on to what just happened.
"Oh, you rascal! You cheated!" Tomoyo said.
"You still didn't say anything about not using my magic." Sakura said, prompting a laugh out of both girls.
"Yeah, you're right. So what are we going to do with these people... since you did win, after all." Tomoyo said.
"Hmmm... I don't know. Something safe for all of them." Sakura said. She tried thinking of a way she could entertain all those tiny people without scaring them or putting their lives at risk. Tomoyo beat her to the punch, however.

"I got it! I think it would be so wonderful if everyone would climb Mt. Sakura!" Tomoyo shouted proudly.
"Um... Tomoyo, wouldn't that be dangerous?" Sakura asked.
"Not if you're lying down on the ground." Tomoyo said.
"Okay, Tomoyo, if you insist." Sakura said. She gave her hat full of people to Tomoyo as she put her wand down on the sidewalk, not worried that anyone would try to steal it as big as it was. Sakura, after brushing aside several parked cars, was now lying flat on her back. She kicked off her yellow sandals and looked as Tomoyo was kneeling down, placing the men, women and children that the two giant girls had captured at different parts of Sakura's body. From her legs, to her stomach, to her chest, even to her hair... it felt like all of Sakura's body was covered with humans. Sakura had to giggle and shake a bit, feeling her legs being tickled with the little people.
"Sakura... try not to shake all those people off. Especially those our age!" Tomoyo said, pointing out the children who were bouncing up and down Sakura's stomach like a moonwalk.
"Sorry about that... it's just these people tickle because they're walking all around me." Sakura said. She noticed the children that were bouncing on her stomach and she very lightly patted each of them on the head. Sakura could also feel the many people that were attempting to climb her hair. One of the hairs actually fell off, sending the two humans climbing the strand back to the ground. Fortunately, they were okay as it was only a short fall.

Finally, after a few minutes of laying on her back and feeling the pitter patter of the tiny humans, Sakura was itching to get back on her feet.
"Okay, Tomoyo, I think I'm ready to move around again." Sakura said.
"Oh, yes, of course. I'll help get all these people off you." Tomoyo said. One by one she picked up each of the little people, dropping them into Sakura's hat. When Tomoyo gave the okay signal, Sakura slowly stood back up. She looked down at the road to see it was pushed in from where she was laying.
"Gee, I was only down there for a few minutes..." Sakura said, feeling sorry for busting the road like she did.
"But at least you left your mark!" Tomoyo said. Sakura brushed off the back of her clothes of the rocky roadway and then took her hat, placing it on top of a building half her size. She glanced down at the few children that had been moonwalking on her stomach for the past few minutes.
"Hmmm... there is this one spell I've been wanting to try. These kids will probably enjoy it!" Sakura said. She gave the kids to Tomoyo, who held them gently in her hands.
"What spell is that, Sakura?" Tomoyo said. Sakura held up her wand once more.
"Let's try this one. Bubble!" Sakura shouted. As she pointed her wand right at the children, a steady stream of bubbles came flying out of the wand. It started out as several tiny ones. This got the kids excited as they were jumping up and down in Tomoyo's hand trying to pop as many of the bubbles as they could.
"You're right, Sakura! They really do love it!" Tomoyo said. Sakura just kept the bubbles coming, and then the bubbles were getting bigger. One of them got so big it was bigger than any of the children! It was floating towards the kids in Tomoyo's hands.
"Tomoyo, heads up!" Sakura shouted. Before Tomoyo could think about moving, however, the kids jumped up and touched this bubble. They suddenly got sucked right into this bubble! Tomoyo watched as the bubble simply floated in the air like a balloon as the kids were walking around and cheering at the giantesses.

"Uh oh... I must've accidentally summoned the capture bubble." Sakura said.
"Yeah, I remember. It's unbreakable except by your wand." Tomoyo said. Having just said that, Tomoyo got an idea as she grabbed a hold of the giant bubble with both her hands.
"That gives me an idea... hey, Sakura, think fast!" Tomoyo said. She then actually threw the bubble into the air. It sailed over Sakura's head and she had to backtrack, almost crashing into a building, before she was able to catch the bubble. It certainly felt more like a ball made out of plastic wrap than an actual bubble, but that was the capture bubble's strength. Sakura took a deep breath knowing that the kids were safe inside, but she still didn't like being taken by surprise.
"Tomoyo! You could've scared these kids!" Sakura said.
"I'm sorry... I guess I was thinking about how strong that bubble was." Tomoyo said.
"Yes, I guess you did get carried away. Two can play at this game." Sakura said with a grin. She placed the bubble down on the ground and very lightly kicked it towards Tomoyo. The kids found themselves running forward to keep from rolling to the top of the bubble, but it soon stopped when the bubble was now resting up against Tomoyo's shoes.
"Hey, that's neat! We could play soccer with this thing! My turn to kick it!" Tomoyo said. She moved her foot back, looking like she was really going to smack the bubble hard, but Sakura came to the rescue.
"Hold it, Tomoyo!" Sakura shouted. Tomoyo stopped her kick in progress as she watched her friend walk towards her.
"I think these kids have had enough kicks for today." Sakura said. She then lowered her wand on the bubble, which made it pop and freeing the kids from their prison. The only bad news was that the kids got drenched by the water from the exterior of the bubble.

Finally, Sakura lowered her hat onto the ground and allowed every last person inside to come out and join the kids.
"Okay, everyone. You can go on home. My friend and I are done playing with all of you." Sakura said as she waved off the group of people. Many of them did not hesitate to run away from the scene. Tomoyo had somewhat of a sad face watching the tiny people leave.
"Awwww... do we really have to let them go? I was hoping I could take them home with me." Tomoyo said.
"I said we could play with them... not keep them. You'll understand, Tomoyo." Sakura said.
"Yes, I do, Sakura. You are right. That's why you are my best friend. You think of every possible scenario possible." Tomoyo said. Sakura then placed her hat, and also her yellow sandals that she had recovered, on top of the building that the people were previously at.
"I think I'll keep these here for now. I feel more comfortable like this." Sakura said. When Tomoyo was about to agree with her, she suddenly looked behind Sakura at a building containing an emergency staircase. She noticed a little girl nearly on top of the railing, dangerously close to tipping over!
"Sakura, behind you!" Tomoyo shouted. Sakura looked just in time to see the girl leaning closer and closer... and then falling straight down for the pavement. An older woman stepped outside from the nearby door to see the girl falling off.
"Nooooooooo!!!! Mary!!!" the older lady shouted.
"Sakura! We have to save that girl from her death!" Tomoyo shouted. Sakura quickly aimed her wand right at the girl.
"Float!" Sakura shouted. A wave of magic energy flew underneath this young girl, and suddenly a large pink balloon formed underneath her. She landed safely on the balloon as it slowly floated up in the air, but Sakura arrived on the scene to gently pick up the girl from the balloon. She looked down at the girl, who looked to be a couple years younger than Sakura was. She then looked at the apparent mother of the girl, standing on the emergency stairs around Sakura's chest level.

"Here you go, ma'am." Sakura said. The mother hugged the girl tightly and then looked up at the giantess.
"Oh thank you so much for saving my daughter!" the mother said.
"Mommy... can I talk with that giant girl for a short while? Can I? Huh? Huh? Can I please?" Mary, the young girl said.
"Oh, okay... but just for a few minutes, alright? And please don't try to climb over the staircase again!" the mother said.
"Yippee!" Mary shouted in delight. As the mother went back inside the room, thinking that Mary wanted to speak with the giant Sakura all by herself, Sakura decided to kneel down so that Mary wouldn't have to look up at her the whole time. But Sakura looked behind her and remembered about Tomoyo as she approached.
"Sakura, is the girl okay?" Tomoyo asked.
"Yep, I saved her in time. Um... listen, Tomoyo, do you think you could give the two of us some alone time?" Sakura said.
"Can I play with some other kids in the area while I'm waiting?" Tomoyo said.
"Sure... but remember, we're not keeping them!" Sakura said.
"Of course, I fully understand, Sakura." Tomoyo said as she walked away, leaving Sakura and Mary to themselves.
"Wow... you really are big, giant girl!" Mary said.
"Thank you, and please just call me Sakura. All my friends do." Sakura said with a smile.
"Sakura? That's a beautiful name." Mary said.
"Yes, yours isn't too bad either." Sakura said.
"Um... Sakura, how did you grow so gigantic?" Mary said.
"Well... it's magic, let's just say." Sakura said.
"That's great! I wish I could grow as big and strong as you." Mary said. Sakura simply smiled down at the young girl.
"Well, I must be going, Mary. Maybe you'll see me on the news!" Sakura said.
"Okay, bye bye!" Mary shouted as Sakura finally walked away from the apartment.

Sakura finally walked up to Tomoyo and noticed her holding a minivan and talking with a family of four. Tomoyo looked to see Sakura joining her.
"Don't be scared, I promise I won't hurt you. Oh, this is my friend, Sakura!" Tomoyo said. Sakura just waved innocently at the family as they waved back, thinking Tomoyo would crush the car if they didn't obey her wishes. Of course, Tomoyo had no reason to do something like that! ^____^
"Come on, Tomoyo, we should explore more of the city." Sakura said.
"Well, okay... you all can go now!" Tomoyo said as she placed the vehicle back on the road and watched as it drove away.
"So where are we going now?" Tomoyo asked. Sakura scanned her surroundings, and then focused her attention on one of the bigger buildings in the area, bigger than even the two of them.
"We should compare our height with that taller building." Sakura said.
"Hmmm... yes, it would be neat to see what it looks like while we are this big." Tomoyo said. Both girls then made their way to this tower.

It didn't take them long to reach this much taller building. It was ordinarily about 500 to 600 feet tall, though it certainly didn't look as humongous to Sakura and Tomoyo's eyes. Not that they minded buildings like this one still taller than them.
"It doesn't look as big, that's for sure." Tomoyo said.
"Yeah. It's still a marvel to look at." Sakura said.
"Say, Sakura... I remember there was this one superhero in a book I read once who could jump over tall buildings with one leap." Tomoyo said.
"Well... what about him?" Sakura said.
"You think maybe you could do something like that for this building?" Tomoyo said.
"Tomoyo, I don't know if I can..." Sakura said.
"Please, Sakura. Just for me. It would be so much fun to see you try." Tomoyo said, once again holding Sakura's hands and looking right into her eyes. Sakura quickly thought of the spell that could help accomplish this feat.
"Alright, alright. I'll give it a go." Sakura said.
"Yay! Thank you, Sakura. I know you will do your best!" Tomoyo said. Sakura then held her wand high into the air.
"Jump!" Sakura shouted. The magic energy came out of her wand and surrounded her bare feet (having left her yellow sandals back in one corner of the city). Once it was gone, Sakura took a few steps back and then got a running start, which had to cause quite the tremble for the entire city with each step the giantess took. Sakura then leapt high up into the air, and I mean high up! She was almost a thousand feet up from the ground! Tomoyo stood in awe from the huge leap that Sakura took. She had to blink to see Sakura up in the cloudy skies.

Sakura, after flying over the entire building with her leap, then fell for the ground and then finally landed back on the road with a very loud booming thud. The impact was so hard that a few buildings, to go along with any cars or people in the nearby area, actually leapt off the ground for a brief time before breaking to pieces. Sakura stood back up to her full height and bowed before Tomoyo, who was applauding and cheering happily for her friend.
"That was wonderful, Sakura!" Tomoyo said.
"Thanks, I was hoping you would enjoy that. Tomoyo, can I ask you something? Did this superhero you say you saw have super strength to go with the super jumping?" Sakura said.
"Well, I think so... this guy was wearing a blue suit with a red cape and had a big S on his chest. It looked like something that could come from America, if you ask me." Tomoyo said.
"I see, so maybe he could do something like this..." Sakura said. This time she walked up to the large building. First, though, she held her wand up in the air again.
"Power!" Sakura shouted. Another wave of magic energy came out of the wand, this time circling all around Sakura's body. When the magic dissipated, Sakura put her wand down on the ground and then used both her hands to actually lift the entire building up off the ground! Sakura, now kneeling down through all the grunting because of putting out so much strength, was able to get the building about 30 feet off the ground. Tomoyo's jaw practically dropped. What she was seeing was beyond words, that's for sure. Finally, Sakura decided that enough was enough, especially since dropping the building would be absolutely devastating at this point. She slowly put it back on the ground, leaving it intact. Tomoyo finally found the words to say.
"Sakura... that was incredible! Oh, that's why you are my best friend!" Tomoyo said, wrapping her arms around Sakura.
"Um... thanks, Tomoyo. It was nothing really." Sakura said. Tomoyo was feeling Sakura's arms if there was perhaps any muscle involved, but nope... Sakura's arms were normal.
"Nope, it was that magic of yours! There's no denying that." Tomoyo said. Finally, the hug stopped and Sakura kneeled down to pick up her wand. Right when she did that... she could hear a very loud grumbling sound.

"What was that?" Sakura asked.
"Oops... that was me. I guess I forgot about lunch time!" Tomoyo said. Then Sakura's stomach growled loudly as well.
"That makes two of us!" Sakura said.
"Gee... what can we have for lunch? They don't make a chocolate bar for giant girls like us, do they?" Tomoyo said. Sakura nodded as she looked around the immediate area. She focused her sights on some of the smaller buildings that appeared, at least from her distance, to be empty.
"Maybe with a little magic. Come on, I guess we can try another of my spells." Sakura said.
"Yippee! I love it every time you use your magic." Tomoyo said with a smile. The two giantesses then walked away from the large building, heading for the corner of the city with the much smaller buildings.

When the two girls made it to the group of smaller buildings, Sakura kneeled down and checked one last time to make sure nobody was inside these buildings, because she was certain nobody would've survived the spell she was thinking of casting.
"It's all clear." Sakura said.
"I guess you wanted to make sure there was nobody inside, right?" Tomoyo said.
"Yep, so that we don't eat them." Sakura said.
"Eat them? You mean..." Tomoyo said. She stopped her speech when she saw Sakura hold her wand up high once again.
"Sweet! Turn these buildings into savory sugary confections!" Sakura shouted. She aimed her wand at a couple of these small buildings. The magic energy soon drastically changed the appearance of these buildings. Instead of being made out of concrete or other building material... they were now made out of cotton candy! Tomoyo's eyes lit up over seeing the sight of cotton candy.
"Oh! I love cotton candy!" Tomoyo said.
"Help yourself... just don't add salt!" Sakura shouted. Both giantesses then walked over to the two buildings and dug in to the sweetness.

A few minutes later, both girls were sitting on the ground, stuffed from devouring all those buildings made out of cotton candy. Sakura let out a loud belch after patting her stomach.
"Sakura! That's not like you!" Tomoyo shouted.
"Oops... sorry. I guess I was a little more than hungry." Sakura said. Tomoyo couldn't help but laugh. Both girls got back up on their feet.
"So where should we go now?" Tomoyo asked.
"Well, I was thinking maybe we'd head for the beach. It's not far from here." Sakura said.
"Yippee! I love going to the beach!" Tomoyo said, jumping up and down in excitement. However, she didn't realize that she was slowly jumping backwards, right into a building half her size.
"Tomoyo, watch out!" Sakura shouted, but it was too late. One swing of Tomoyo's foot, and the building was knocked down to the ground, completely destroying it. Sakura could just see many innocent people that had gotten trapped in the rubble.
"Oh no... Sakura, please forgive me! I didn't see that building there!" Tomoyo said, trying to plead her case with Sakura.
"It's okay, Tomoyo. Maybe I can fix this. Hold onto me." Sakura said as she held up her wand. Tomoyo did just what she was told and watched Sakura worked her magic.
"Time! Take us back to before this building met its unfortunate demise." Sakura said. With a flick of her wand, the magic surrounded Sakura and Tomoyo. The two watched as the building's destruction suddenly went in reverse. It was then back in its rightful place like nothing happened.

Tomoyo once again looked in awe over what she had just seen. Sakura, however, was trying to catch her breath.
"That was incredible, Sakura! You really are powerful if you're able to control time like that." Tomoyo said.
"Yes..." Sakura said. Just then, however, Sakura fell down on one knee and clutched her chest, denting the road where the knee landed.
"Sakura? Are you okay?" Tomoyo said, walking beside her friend and helping her back up.
"Time is one of the most powerful spells even for a master CardCaptor. It takes a lot of strength out of you, and that's why Kero always said only use it in case of an emergency." Sakura said.
"Hmmm... yes, I understand. Sakura, I am so deeply sorry. It's my fault this happened to you..." Tomoyo said.
"Don't blame yourself, Tomoyo... you only did what was natural." Sakura said with a smile.
"But still, I could never forgive myself to see you go through such pain. Please, Sakura... if there is anything I can ever do to help you, let me know. I am here for you." Tomoyo said, hugging Sakura once again.
"Thanks, Tomoyo... but really, I'll be fine. So, what do you say we head for the beach?" Sakura asked.
"That would be most wonderful!" Tomoyo said. The two giantesses then walked away from this small section of the city and headed for the beach. Although just before Sakura left the area, she decided to give the lucky people of that building saved by her powers something to remember her by.
"Flower!" Sakura said as she waved her wand at the building. Soon, sitting on each and every window sill was a bouquet full of beautiful flowers.

On the way to the beach, Sakura and Tomoyo stopped and noticed what used to be the largest pond in the city. Of course, as big as they were, the pond was quite a bit smaller now. She could see several people gathered around this pond, or actually in it with their boats. Many of them, especially the children, stopped whatever they were doing to look way up at these giantesses.
"Hey, Sakura... isn't this the largest pond in the entire city?" Tomoyo asked.
"Doesn't look so big anymore, does it?" Sakura asked.
"Nope, it sure doesn't! You know, I remember how we used to come here when it snowed and this pond became an ice skating rink." Tomoyo said. Sakura just smiled and then looked deep into the pond with her eyes. That thought alone from Tomoyo began to intrigue her.
"Tomoyo, can you help me get these people out of the pond for a little while?" Sakura said.
"Why? What are you thinking?" Tomoyo said.
"You'll see." Sakura said. Tomoyo then walked all around the edges of the pond, picking up the boats and holding them in her hands. Those that were in the middle of the pond... no problem for Sakura and her magic.
"Watery!" Sakura shouted. She pointed her wand at the pond and a column made entirely out of the pond's water started to rise underneath the boats, raising them into the air, almost to the giantesses' eye level. Sakura then moved her wand around, guiding the columns towards her and grabbing the boats as they fell from mid-air.

Eventually, the pond was completely empty. Tomoyo rejoined her friend holding many boats in her hands.
"I got most of them." Tomoyo said.
"Good... I was able to get the rest using Watery." Sakura said.
"So... can we keep them?" Tomoyo said, but Sakura showed a rather unhappy look on her face, like she wasn't thrilled to hear that question again.
"Just kidding." Tomoyo said with a cute smile. Sakura smiled right back
"Oh, Tomoyo. Here, watch the rest of these people for me." Sakura said. With Tomoyo's hands full, she placed her own collection of boats down by Tomoyo's feet, leaving these people to look all the way up at the 100-foot-tall Tomoyo. Sakura, just as tall of course, held her wand up again.
"Freeze! Make this pond into the lovely ice skating rink from our memories!" Sakura shouted. She pointed her wand, with the magic energy coming out, down at the water. The magic soon swirled around every last bit of water inside the pond... and then it all froze solid!
"There we go... the old ice skating rink!" Sakura said.
"Sakura... it's beautiful!" Tomoyo said. Sakura then took some of the tiny people (including children) standing down at Tomoyo's feet and placed them on the ice. She watched as many of these people slipped and slided around.
"Yeah, too bad we don't have ice skates for these people." Sakura said.
"Maybe we should make some for them!" Tomoyo said.
"Nah, maybe later. We really should get down to the beach." Sakura said. She and Tomoyo placed the rest of the people they collected down on the ice before they walked away from the scene.

Finally, after a few more minutes of walking and making sure not to crush any of the panicking people as they continued to try and escape from the giantesses, Sakura and Tomoyo were towering over the beach. They watched as many of the people were quickly starting to run away from the two young giantesses.
"Gee, Sakura... why are they so afraid of us? We promised we wouldn't hurt anybody, right?" Tomoyo said.
"Well, yeah... but it's only natural. Would you be scared if a giant girl suddenly came so close to you?" Sakura said.
"Not if it were you. I would stay until the end." Tomoyo said, holding onto one of Sakura's arms.
"Well, you know what I mean!" Sakura said. Just then, Sakura looked out at the open water and could just see a man screaming for help.
"Wait, look out there, Tomoyo!" Sakura said.
"Oh dear... he's too far out to sea! He could drown!" Tomoyo said, clearly becoming concerned for the young man.
"Maybe my magic can help him!" Sakura said as she held up her wand.
"Wait, I'll save him!" Tomoyo said. Indeed, before Sakura could move an inch, Tomoyo quickly moved towards the open water. She didn't notice that she was coming dangerously close to crushing a lot of people on her trek for the water, including the lifeguard.
"Tomoyo, wait!" Sakura shouted, but Tomoyo was already in the water, kneeling down to pick up the man. Of course, as big as she was, the harsh waves (it was high tide after all) weren't bothering her at all.
Tomoyo walked back to the roads where Sakura was standing as she got down on both her knees and gently placed the drenched man on the ground. He was slowly waking up.
"It's okay, mister. You're safe now." Tomoyo said.
"(cough cough) Thank you, my guardian angel... but I didn't know you were so big." the man said.
"Huh? Angel?" Tomoyo said. Sakura let out a big laugh upon hearing that.
"Well, you really are an angel if you think about it." Sakura said.
"Yes... you are right. I guess it's fitting he say that." Tomoyo said. She then picked up the man again and placed him on top of the nearby lifeguard tower, where he would be safe for the time being. Tomoyo then reached down for her soaking wet socks and shoes.
"Whew, I really got these things wet!" Tomoyo said. She took them off and laid them to rest next to Sakura, leaving her in her bare feet much like her best friend.

Sakura, meanwhile, was taking a good long look over the beach. She could see a lot of it as big as she was.
"You know, I think this beach could use some more sand. Much of it was eroded during that big storm we had last year." Sakura said.
"Oh, that's right. I remember hearing about people who have been trying to save this beach." Tomoyo said.
"Well, we could always lend a hand, right?" Sakura said, once again holding up her wand.
"Yay! Go for it, Super Sakura!" Tomoyo shouted. Sakura blushed slightly from that compliment, but then she concentrated on her magic.
"Sand! Beautify this beach once more by lending me your powers!" Sakura shouted. She then aimed her wand downward, and soon the magic energy changed into a huge wave of sand that simply poured along the beachside. It was so much sand that Sakura eventually had to cut the spell off after only sweeping about a hundred yards of beach. Tomoyo of course noticed all that excess sand as well.
"Wow! That was great, but do you think you might have overdone it a little?" Tomoyo said. Indeed, Sakura finally noticed all the sand she had created, practically burying some of the people inside.
"Oops..." Sakura said, showing a sweatdrop or two.
"Don't worry, Sakura. If I know you, those people will be safe." Tomoyo said.
"Yes... you are right. My Sand spell is kinda harmless the way I used it. Thank you, Tomoyo, for easing my worries." Sakura said.
"Of course. That's what friends are for!" Tomoyo said.
"But still... I feel kinda ashamed for going that far. If only there was something I could do..." Sakura said. She looked around, wondering what she could possibly do to perhaps entertain all those little people who were still scared of the two giantesses.

But in the meantime, Tomoyo picked up the sound of bells ringing around. She looked at the roads which led to the city and found the source of those bells. It was one of the ice cream trucks that always rolled around town on these hot summer days. Tomoyo's eyes lit up like an excited little girl. She always loved getting ice cream from this truck as a child.
"Ice cream!!!" Tomoyo shouted, jumping up and down in excitement. Sakura was so deep in thought that she didn't notice her friend walking away and following this ice cream truck down the road. The driver of the ice cream truck looked behind him and noticed Tomoyo's huge bare feet closing in rapidly.
"Oh sh..............." the male driver then simply slammed his foot on the accelerator pedal and burned rubber as he sped off into the distance, steering left and right to avoid the big holes left in the road by the giantesses. Tomoyo, of course, had no trouble keeping up with the truck.
"Hey, come back here! All I want is some of that ice cream." Tomoyo said, sounding as innocent as she could, but the truck simply kept on going.
Sakura was still standing just outside of the beach, but she snapped her fingers when she finally thought of something to do for the people of the beach.
"I got it! Tomoyo, we could..." Sakura said, but when she turned to look at Tomoyo, she wasn't there.
"Tomoyo? Where did you..." Sakura said. She looked out at the roads that led to and from the beach, and that's when she caught her chasing that ice cream truck.
"Oh no... I was afraid this would happen." Sakura said. She tightened her grip on her wand and then began to follow Tomoyo.

The ice cream truck kept on speeding down the roadways, but the giant Tomoyo kept on tailing the truck. In fact, she was getting very close to reaching down and grabbing the whole truck.
"I got you now!" Tomoyo said. She had no idea, however, that she was coming up fast on the monorail platform that stood about 30 feet up from the roads. Sakura turned the corner and could see Tomoyo heading for this platform.
"Tomoyo, look out!!!" Sakura shouted, but it was too late. Tomoyo's knee crashed into the platform, causing part of it to break off completely. And to make matters worse, Tomoyo ended up falling towards the ground, resulting in a real earthshaker upon impact with the ground. Tomoyo recovered quickly enough to see little people staring right up at her face.
"Um... hi everyone! You look so cute!" Tomoyo said happily. Sakura was just about to rush up to Tomoyo to check on her, but that's when she looked over and saw the monorail car coming and coming fast... and they were about to run out of track!
"Oh no..." Sakura said to herself as she looked at the broken piece of the monotail platform. Then she looked at all the sparks that were raining down onto the roads (and harmlessly onto Tomoyo's huge body as well) and got an idea.
"Wait, if the power of the monorail keeps it from falling off..." Sakura said. She then held up her wand in the air.
"Thunder! Give me a stroke of lightning that will save the many lives aboard the monorail car!" Sakura shouted. The clouds directly above Sakura darkened quickly and soon the booming sounds of thunder were roaring through the skies. And then true to Sakura's word, a bolt of lightning struck her wand and then swirled around it until she pointed the wand right at the broken monorail platform section. The lightning then left the wand and soon surrounded the empty section. True to Sakura's thoughts, the powerful electricity held the monorail car up in the air until it was back on the tracks.
"Whew... that was close." Sakura said to herself. After calling off the Thunder spell, she then rushed over to Tomoyo who was still laying on the ground, now playing with the little people with some of her fingers.

"Tomoyo, are you hurt?" Sakura asked.
"Oh, Sakura... I'm just fine!" Tomoyo said. She then got up and brushed her dress clean of dust and debris that came from landing so hard on the road.
"I'm glad, but you really must be more careful. Accidents like that can be devastating!" Sakura said.
"Yes, I am sorry, Sakura. I guess I got carried away with that ice cream truck. Darn! It must've gotten away." Tomoyo said, stomping one foot on the ground in frustration.
"Come on, Tomoyo, it's okay. Maybe later I'll take you to the ice cream shop. You can have all the flavors you want!" Sakura said.
"Yippee! Thank you so much, Sakura." Tomoyo said as she once again embraced her friend. As Sakura was hugging her back, she suddenly looked up in the sky to see several military helicopters and jet planes flying towards them. She then peeked downward and could see several tanks rolling up to them.
"Tomoyo... look at this." Sakura said. Tomoyo broke away from Sakura and looked both up and down to see the same fighting arsenal heading their way.
"Oh my, I was afraid the military would soon be coming after us. What will we do, Sakura?" Tomoyo asked.
"I guess we're gonna have to try and reason with them." Sakura said. In the front tank that has stopped just short of the girls' feet, the soldier popped his head out and held a megaphone in hand.
"Freeze, ladies! We have you completely surrounded!" the soldier said.
"Listen, I'm sure we can explain everything without having to resort to violence." Sakura said down to the soldier.
"There is nothing to explain! You have endangered the lives of many innocent civilians!" the soldier said. Tomoyo took a couple steps backwards, accidentally stepping on a tank and destroying it completely.
"Oops... sorry about that!" Tomoyo said. For the soldier with the megaphone, just seeing one of his own tanks being crushed was enough to take action.
"All units! Open fire!!!" the soldier shouted. The combat planes and tanks got to work blasting away at the girls, but Sakura was quick to take action.
"Shield! Protect us now!" Sakura shouted. She held her wand up high and soon a glowing blue barrier went up, encasing the two giantesses inside. The girls watched as all the bullets and other projectiles from the military arsenal bounced off the forcefield. Sakura knew she and Tomoyo were safe for now, but she knew they couldn't stand in this spot forever.

"What do we do now, Sakura?" Tomoyo said.
"I'm afraid we have no choice but to defend ourselves. I just hope they will forgive us afterwards." Sakura said.
"Yes, I do agree. It is unfortunate that it has come to this, but I know you will protect me with all your heart." Tomoyo said. Sakura looked down at one of the tanks and saw one of them firing a missile up towards herself and Tomoyo. Sakura swung her wand downward, and the forcefield disappeared.
"Huh? What happened to our shield?" Tomoyo asked.
"Watch this, Tomoyo... Mirror!" Sakura said. Another field of energy soon surrounded the two girls, but this time the forcefield covered only the front of Sakura. The missile hit this field and it bounced right back towards the tank it came from! This was different from the Shield spell when the bullets were bouncing off in random directions. The soldiers inside the tank watched as the missile was zinging right for them.
"Abandon tank!" they all shouted. All of them got out just before the missile collided with the tank, leaving behind a huge explosion.
"Cool... a bull's eye!" Sakura said. She was getting ready to cast her Shield spell again when something hit Tomoyo. It must've been something hard because she was holding her head in pain.
"Ouch!" Tomoyo shouted.
"Tomoyo, what's wrong!?" Sakura said.
"I think one of those bombs got me on the head. I'm okay, though..." Tomoyo said as she continued to hold her head. Suddenly, Sakura could feel the blood racing through her heart and her eyes lighting up like fire as the anger slowly built up. It didn't matter to her that Tomoyo said she was okay. The mere fact that she got caught in the crossfire and let out a simple OUCH was not sitting pretty with her. Sakura clutched her wand tightly and looked down at the main general who had been shouting up at her.

"Alright... you can shoot bullets at me. You can fire a missile right at me. You can yell and scream at me all you want... but when you decide to hurt my friend, you're gonna pay!!!" Sakura shouted. She held her wand up high again. The military guards simply looked for something to brace onto as they felt for sure she was about to unleash a very dangerous spell.
"Arrow!" Sakura shouted. Her wand soon transformed into a complete bow and arrow, and she aimed her new weapon up in the sky. One by one, she shot down the jet planes with incredible accuracy. When the skies were totally clear, Sakura glanced down at the ground troops standing next to their tanks. Her menacing glance struck fear into their weak hearts.
"Whoa, man... she's gone postal!" one of the soldiers shouted.
"Yeah, let's get out of here!" another said. Soon all the soldiers were running like heck away from their own arsenal, or what was left of it anyway.
"Hey, you jerks forgot your little toys!" Sakura shouted, still sounding angry. She took a couple steps forward, planting her foot down on one of the tanks and crushing it completely. She then held her wand down at the two remaining tanks before bringing it up in the air like a golf club.
"FORE!!!" Sakura shouted. She then swung her wand very quickly downward, striking the two tanks and sending them out into the distance, falling apart in pieces along the way.
Tomoyo, now recovered from her slight knock on the head, joined Sakura alongside her.
"Sakura! That was incredible!" Tomoyo said.
"Wait, Tomoyo... Create!" Sakura shouted. She pointed her wand this time at Tomoyo's two open hands. A digital camera formed all of a sudden.
"Hurry, take a picture of those guys running down the road!" Sakura said.
"Oh, okay... sure thing. Smile for the birdie, you cute little guys!" Tomoyo said. She took a couple pictures, and the intense flash from the huge object no doubt blinded the guys as they stumbled their way down the roads. The rest of the military brigade retreated as well, leaving the roads clear once more.

"Yes! Victory for Sakura, the master CardCaptor!" Sakura said, showing a thumb up. She then looked back at Tomoyo.
"Thank you, Sakura... for protecting me." Tomoyo said as camera soon vanished into thin air with Sakura having called off the Create spell.
"Well, of course, you are my best friend. I would've hated to see those guys hurt you." Sakura said.
"I know, and you stood up for me even though I wasn't really that hurt. But it shows that you deeply care for me and for that, I will gladly place my life in your hands." Tomoyo said, once again solemnly holding Sakura's hands. Sakura suddenly let out a slight yawn.
"Gee, Tomoyo... I'm kinda tired. You want to go home now?" Sakura said.
"Awww... but I was just beginning to enjoy this experience!" Tomoyo said.
"Alright, alright. Let's take a nap instead, right here in the city." Sakura said.
"You really mean it?" Tomoyo asked.
"Sure. We can have some of these people crawl all over us while we're taking our nap. And then maybe we can play with them when we wake up." Sakura said.
"Oh, Sakura... that would be most wonderful. Maybe I can have everyone comb my hair while I am asleep." Tomoyo said. Sakura then held her wand up in the air again.
"Sleep! Let us have a chance to rest our huge bodies for the next hour and a half." Sakura said. The magic energy swirled around the two girls, and they both started to drift off to sleep.

With the Cloud spell finally wearing off, it was the bright sunlight that got Sakura to wake up about an hour and a half later, just as she predicted after casting the Sleep spell. But when Sakura tried to move around once again, she couldn't. That's because she was actually tied down to the ground, along with Tomoyo who was still sleeping. Sakura turned her right to see the same military guards that had tried to destroy her doing their best to hold the rope down.
"C'mon guys... we have to tie her down before she wakes up!" one of the soldiers said. But naturally, no rope can possibly hold down someone as big as Sakura. Since she still had one hand on her wand, she could still summon one of her powers... and she literally did.
"Power!" Sakura shouted. As soon as she felt her strength intensify, she picked herself up, instantly ripping out the ropes from the road. She shook them off her body, causing the men holding on tight to these ropes to fall for the ground. But that didn't concern Sakura. She felt best to just ignore these people before she hurt more of them like she ended up doing with the military soldiers earlier from them 'hurting' Tomoyo. And speaking of Tomoyo, she woke up to see Sakura standing up over her.
"Wake up, sleeping beauty!" Sakura said.
"Oh, Sakura. I had the most wonderful dream!" Tomoyo said. She was helped up to her feet by Sakura.
"You did? What happened?" Sakura asked.
"Well, you and I were walking through the city, and then all of a sudden my mom shows up!" Tomoyo said. Sakura quickly got an image of Sakura's wonderful mother, Sonomi Daidouji.
"Yes, the president of Daidouji Toys." Sakura said.
"Yeah, and she's much much bigger than the both of us... yet she's smiling to see we are so happy together and she follows us while you and I are talking to Meilin and Li, who are sitting on a park bench." Tomoyo said.
"Meilin and Li, huh?" Sakura said.
"Yeah. Kinda strange I would dream about them when of course they're all the way out in Hong Kong." Tomoyo said. After briefly thinking of Tomoyo's very much wonderful dream, her thoughts quickly turned to Li. Just hearing that name was striking to her. She was already missing him even though he promised to return and see her someday.

Sakura then looked at her wand, and got an idea.
"Tomoyo... I think we should go visit those two in Hong Kong." Sakura said.
"What!? Really? I was kinda hoping we could stay longer and play with the little people!" Tomoyo said.
"There will be plenty of little people for you to play with when we get there. And besides... we've been here long enough. We should leave so that those military guys can't try to hurt us more than they already have." Sakura said.
"Okay, Sakura. I understand completely. But how are we going to get all the way there? It is pretty far away even though we are giant-sized." Tomoyo said.
"Easy... we'll travel by air. Fly!" Sakura said. She threw her wand up into the air and watched as it grew bigger. It was soon big enough, as well as now carrying wings, to hold both giantesses.
"Yay! I love flying on your wand, Sakura." Tomoyo said.
"All aboard!" Sakura said. The wand then sailed for the skies and picked up speed, carrying the two giantesses hundreds of feet into the air and far away from their home city. Already Tomoyo was enjoying the view as she held on tight to Sakura.
"Wow! This is so cool, Sakura! We're so high!" Tomoyo said.
"We really are... look!" Sakura said. She pointed just to her left and could see a large airplane flying right by them. Tomoyo could see the stunned looks on many of the passangers as they watched, in their eyes... two giant girls fly by on a broomstick-like object with wings.
"Hi everyone!" Tomoyo said as she waved at everyone inside the plane before it flew right by.
"Next stop, Hong Kong!" Sakura said as she increased the wand's speed.

Somewhere in Hong Kong, Meilin and Li were walking through the currently peaceful streets, though Li of course kept a close watch on Meilin, and she knew it. She quickly got into her fighting stance and faced Li eye-to-eye.
"Geez, Li... you don't have to watch me every single second!" Meilin said.
"Sorry... I guess I do worry too much about you, don't I?" Li said. Meilin just smiled as she got off her stance and stood back normally.
"And you just now figured that out, my cousin?" Meilin said.
"That's right. You are a top notch fighter. You ever think about entering martial arts tournaments?" Li asked.
"Yeah, well... don't you have to travel around the world for those things? And besides... we're still kinda young, aren't we?" Meilin said.
"Yeah." Li said softly. Meilin could tell what Li was thinking just by looking in his eyes.
"Still miss Sakura, don't you?" Meilin said.
"What!? Come on, Meilin! I..." Li shouted.
"Nope, don't you dare deny it! You two are meant for each other! You know it and I know it!" Meilin said.
"Well, Meilin..." Li said.
"Hey, I told you it's fine! Don't worry, I'm sure you'll see her sooner than later." Meilin said. Suddenly, however, a huge shadow flew right past the two in a matter of seconds. Both of the kids looked to see what it belonged to.
"Yikes! What was that thing that flew over us!?" Meilin said. Li was able to get a better look.
"Huh? That can't be..." Li said.
"What was it, Li?" Meilin said.
"Either I'm seeing things or I just saw Sakura and her wand fly over us." Li said.
"Hmmm... maybe you are seeing things. She'd have to be 100 feet tall to cast that kind of shadow over us!" Meilin said.
"Come on, we need to check this out." Li said as he took off running after the shadow. Meilin once again was frustrated with the head start that Li had gotten.
"Hey, wait for me! He never ever waits for me..." Meilin said as she followed.

Meanwhile, several yards away from where Meilin and Li had been (meaning they weren't that far), the giantesses Sakura and Tomoyo touched down close to the heart of one of Hong Kong's major cities.
"Well, here we are. I guess this is Hong Kong." Sakura said.
"Yeah... I once heard this was kind of a dangerous town. You always had to be on your guard." Tomoyo said.
"Well, we're so big nobody can hurt us, right?" Sakura said with a smile.
"You're right... except of course for other giants like us!" Tomoyo said, causing both girls to laugh a bit. Sakura then looked at her wand.
"Hmmm... that reminds me. I should get in some practice before that next mini-movie you wanted to make." Sakura said.
"Oh yeah, I said next weekend was when I wanted to make that Crouching Sakura, Hidden Clow movie! But who are you going to fight against?" Tomoyo said.
"No problem... Shadow!" Sakura said as she pointed her wand down at Tomoyo's dark shadow, which was made from the bright Hong Kong sunlight. Tomoyo's shadow soon leapt out from where it rested and was now standing just as tall as Sakura was, face-to-face with her.
"Hey! That's me! As a shadow, I mean..." Tomoyo said. Sakura looked back to her friend and smiled.
"I hope you don't mind, Tomoyo." Sakura said.
"Not at all. I would do anything for you, Sakura." Tomoyo said.
"That's good. Now stay back. It's time to Fight!" Sakura said as she held her wand up again. This time the magic energy swirled all around her body. Sakura then charged head on for Tomoyo's shadow.

A few minutes later, Meilin and Li made their way close to the battle scene, but quickly stopped when the giant Sakura fell down to the ground, nearly crushing the two with her head.
"I think that's close enough!" Meilin said.
"You think?" Li said. The two took a few more steps and looked to their right to see the most amazing sight. The giant Sakura fighting with Tomoyo's shadow. Many of the buildings around the two were broken apart, no doubt from their fierce struggle.
"Sakura... no way! What is she doing here!?" Li shouted.
"Yeah, but at least she's downright huge again! That's awesome!" Meilin shouted. Since Sakura became a master CardCaptor, she respected her far more than when they first met. In fact, Meilin only recently was finally able to feel that Li was best being with Sakura, and that's only resulted in a stronger friendship with her.
"Come on, Sakura! You can do it!" Tomoyo shouted. Meilin looked behind her and caught her first glimpse at the giant Tomoyo.
"Whoa, Li... look. Tomoyo's a giantess too!" Meilin shouted
"My goodness..." Li said before he focused his attention on the Sakura vs. Tomoyo's Shadow battle. Finally, after throwing several punches and kicks thanks to the power of the Fight card, Tomoyo's shadow sprung back with a tackle attack, pinning Sakura down to the ground.
"You think you've won, eh? Well, try this on for size! Windy!" Sakura shouted. With her free hand, she clutched onto her wand and pointed it right in Shadow Tomoyo's chest. The intense gust caused the shadow to lose her grip on Sakura and fly way up in the air because of the wind. Finally, she landed very hard on the ground about 100 yards away from Sakura, destroying a whole lot of property (and no doubt lives) in the process. Sakura slowly walked up to the downed shadow until she stood right on top of her.
"You fought a good fight, but now it's time for you to go. Shadow, return!" Sakura said, pointing her wand at the shadow. It soon got absorbed into Sakura's wand. Tomoyo then watched as Sakura pointed her wand all the way back at her. After the magic energy swirled around Tomoyo for a few seconds, she looked to see her shadow had returned to its regular self. Tomoyo then cheered happily as she ran up to Sakura, nearly stomping on Meilin and Li on the way. The two decided to slowly creep up to the giantesses, not wanting to get too close unless they had more games to play.

"Sakura! That was great! This will be the most memorable fight scene ever for my movie!" Tomoyo said. She was so incredibly happy that she takes her hands and dances in circles around Sakura, somewhat spinning her around in the process.
"Whoa! Okay, okay, Tomoyo! You're making me dizzy already!" Sakura said. As soon as Tomoyo heard that, she stopped twirling her friend around.
"Oops... sorry about that!" Tomoyo said. Sakura stopped spinning, but she was too dizzy to even stand up as she started to tumble towards the ground, almost right for Meilin and Li!
"Eeeeek!!! Look out for the falling Sakura!" Meilin shouted. The two hung onto each other for dear life until they were rocked a few feet into the air by Sakura's hard landing with her behind on the streets. Li was the first to see how close it was for he and Meilin... not only were the two standing in between Sakura's legs, but they were just a scant few inches away from the fabric of Sakura's shorts.
"Whew... we're safe." Li said.
"Wow! Talk about a close shave, cousin!" Meilin said as she too noticed how close she was to the giant Sakura's shorts. They watched as the giant Tomoyo walked up to her friend, holding out a hand to help her up when ready.
"Sakura, are you okay?" Tomoyo asked.
"Of course, Tomoyo. I'm a master CardCaptor, you can't hurt me! Ouch..." Sakura said, although she was rubbing her behind a little bit. Sakura then grabbed Tomoyo's hand and stood right back up, leaving Li and Meilin to be standing in between her two bare feet. Tomoyo looked down next to her feet.
"Oh look! More little people to watch us! Maybe they want to play with us too." Tomoyo said. Sakura took a couple steps back and looked down at the tiny Li and Meilin. She gasped.

"Li? Meilin? Is that you?" Sakura asked. Meilin just smiled and waved up at her giant-sized friend.
"Hi, Sakura! Welcome to Hong Kong! I promise it's a lot bigger than you think!" Meilin said.
"Sakura... I... I..." Li said, struggling to find the words. Soon, however, Sakura kneeled down and laid down a hand on the ground, allowing the two to climb on and hang on for the ride as Sakura stood up again. Tomoyo joined her friend in looking down at the two.
"Awww... don't they look so cute when they're so small?" Tomoyo said.
"Hey, don't you rub it in! Weren't you in the other position last year after Sakura stopped my rampage?" Meilin said.
"Oh, you're right. I'm sorry, Meilin!" Tomoyo said, bowing down.
"It's cool. What about you, Li?" Meilin said. Li was still having trouble finding what to say up to the giant Sakura.
"I... I mean... I... Sakura... I..." Li said.
"What's wrong, Li? Don't you like having a lot more of me to love?" Sakura said, poking him in the stomach and knocking him down to his behind. Meilin couldn't help but laugh.
"Gosh, Sakura, you must feel pretty powerful being big and strong like that." Meilin said.
"Yeah, I guess like last year..." Sakura said.
"Come on, admit it. Even I felt pretty powerful when I got big last year!" Meilin said.
"Hey Sakura! We should play a game with them! How about seeing how fast Li can climb your body from bottom to top?" Tomoyo said, excitedly.
"I got a better idea. Lay down, please." Sakura said.
"Okay, sure." Tomoyo said. She did just that, getting down flat on her back. Sakura then placed the two tiny ones where Tomoyo's stomach was.
"Let's see how quickly the two of you can get to Tomoyo's nose, and no using magic!" Sakura said.
"Yeah, Li, no using magic!!!" Meilin said, stretching her legs a bit as she got ready to run.
"Alright..." Li said.
"Ready... go!" Sakura shouted. Meilin and Li both took off running, and already Tomoyo was giggling as she felt the pitter-patter of their tiny feet running across the upper part of her body.

In the end, though, Meilin proved to be a faster runner as she climbed up Tomoyo's chin and then got up to her nose quickest. She had to maintain her balance while Tomoyo kept on chuckling from being tickled.
"Ha! Score one for me!" Meilin said. She walked to the edge of Tomoyo's nose and helped Li up.
"Well, you always were quick with your legs." Li said. Sakura then picked up the two and Tomoyo got back on her feet.
"That was so fun! You two were really tickling me." Tomoyo said.
"You're just saying that to make us feel good, aren't you?" Meilin said. Sakura smiled over hearing that.
"Li... I wish you could come back home with us." Sakura said.
"Home? What do you mean, Sakura?" Tomoyo asked.
"Well... I am feeling kinda homesick, Tomoyo. We have been this size for quite some time. I think we should get back before we make this city nervous too... and before I get too used to being this big." Sakura said. Tomoyo frowned over hearing that, but quickly came to realize that Sakura brought up some very good points.
"Yes, Sakura... I know it's been a lot of fun, but you are right. I guess we do need to get back home before your father and brother return." Tomoyo said.
"Oh! I almost forgot about them. I hope they haven't heard already..." Sakura said. She very carefully placed Li and Meilin back down on the ground, next to her huge feet.
"Well... so long, you two. Perhaps we will meet again." Sakura said.
"Next time, make me grow too! It'd be fun if the three of us ran all around this place!" Meilin said. Sakura and Tomoyo giggled a little bit.
"Don't worry, Sakura. I have a feeling we will meet again, and very soon." Li said.
"I know." Sakura said, as she blew a kiss down to Li.
"Don't tell anyone about us!" Tomoyo joked.
"Oh, that'll be pretty tough, considering the whole city's probably watching you!" Meilin said. After waving at each other for the last time today, Sakura held up her wand again.
"Fly!" Sakura shouted. Her wand changed once again, allowing her and Tomoyo to hop onboard and take off for the skies. Li and Meilin walked back to their home after watching them disappear into the sky, unable to forget about the events of the past couple of hours anytime soon.

After stopping by in the city to pick up Sakura's hat and sandals, Sakura and Tomoyo's flight this time took them not just back to their home region, but literally back home. The two girls had landed right in front of Sakura's house, where their adventure as giantesses had begun much earlier. Sakura looked down at her own house and then at Tomoyo, still holding onto Meilin and Li with her two hands.
"Well... it's time." Sakura said.
"Yes, I know. Go ahead, Sakura." Tomoyo said. Sakura could clearly see the slight bit of sadness in Tomoyo's eyes. Perhaps she too had thoroughly enjoyed being a towering giantess much like she had gotten accustomed to it. Sakura knew in her heart that perhaps another day she could make her big.
"Big! Reverse effect!" Sakura said, making very much sure to add the words reverse effect... otherwise we'd be in mega trouble! Indeed, the magic swirled around both Sakura and Tomoyo and they soon shrunk back to their normal size.
"Whew... as long as we were big, I feel like I'm tiny all of a sudden!" Sakura said.
"Yes, you can say that again!" Tomoyo shouted. Sakura then looked to see her father and brother turning the corner and walking towards them. Sakura quickly changed her wand into the good ol' Key of Avalon and slipped it in her shorts pocket.
"Sakura! What are you doing out here?" Fujitaka asked.
"Practicing for the marathon?" Toya said, trying once again to poke fun at Sakura.
"Very funny, Toya. Well, Tomoyo and I thought we'd get some fresh air while you were gone." Sakura said.
"Well, that's nice. Would you like to stay for dinner, Tomoyo?" Fujitaka asked.
"I would love that, Mr. Kinomoto!" Tomoyo said. Fujitaka and Toya then walked inside their home. Sakura then breathed a sigh of relief, as the two didn't seem to be aware of her and Tomoyo's fun as 100-foot-tall giantesses today.

But as everyone headed inside Sakura's home, Sakura was already thinking of what could happen the next time she and/or Tomoyo grew. The thoughts she was getting already made her smile and giggle a little bit more!
