| Sakura and Madison are looking at picture at their classroom. | |
| Madison | Here's another one of Li and Meilin. She's in every picture he's in. |
| Sakura | I know. She's practically his shadow. |
| At this moment, Meilin comes into the classroom. | |
| Sakura | Oh, hey, Meilin. |
| Madison | Good morning, Meilin. |
| Sakura | Madison brought in her photo album. |
| Meilin looks depressed, and slowly walks to her seat. | |
| Madison | Huh? |
| Sakura |
You want to see? You know there are some great shots of you here. Are you OK? |
| Meilin is holding her tears. | |
| Sakura | What's wrong, Meilin? |
Meilin breaks up her news to Sakura in the schoolyard. | |
| Sakura | You're going back home? |
| Meilin | I have to. My gradmaother's sick. Our family needs us there. |
| Sakura | But it's just a visit. |
| Meilin | Isn't it? I don't know. |
| Sakura finds Li stand still in front of them. | |
| Sakura | Oh, hi, Li. |
| Li | Heard you're going back home. |
| Meilin | Yeah. |
| Li | Actually, it's not such a big deal, Meilin. And you don't have to worry about the Clow Cards or anything. We can handle them without you. |
| Meilin | Oh! |
| Sakura | Ohh... |
| Meilin | But, Li, I thought I was helping you capture the Cards. |
| Li | We've been over this before. You can't capture Clow Cards, Meilin. You don't have the magic. |
| Meilin | I may not have the lineage, but I've been training hard my entire life! |
| Li | Yeah. |
| Meilin | I suppose you just think that I'm in the way. |
| Li | Sometimes you are. |
| Meilin | I knew it! |
| Meilin runs away from Li, crying from distress. | |
| Li | It's true. |
| Sakura | Meilin! |
| Li | What did I say? |
| Sakura | How could you say that, Li? |
| Li | Hmm, girls. |
Ms. Mackenzie breaks the news of Meilin to the class. | |
| Mackenzie | I have some very unexpected new for you. Your classmate Meilin Rae is going to leaving us soon to return home. |
| Whole the clss turn to look at Meilin with an astonishment. | |
| Mackenzie | We'll miss you, Meilin. I hope you'll keep in touch. |
After school, each student leaves the classroom. | |
| Li | Still mad? |
| Meilin | Hmmph. |
| Meilin is walking alone out of the classroom. | |
| Sakura |
Meilin, wait! D-do you wnat to sleep over tonight? |
| Meilin | You and me? |
| Sakura | Yeah, well, see my dad's making this really great pizza tonight. |
| Meilin | I like pizza. |
| Sakura | Great! |
| Meilin | Better be extra cheese. |
| Meilin walks out of the classroom. | |
| Sakura | Why did I do that? |
| Li | Got me. |
| Sakura | Hey, at least I'm making an effort, Mr. You're-just-in-the-way. |
| Li | Why bother pretending you're best friends now? |
| Sakura | Well... 'Cause she's leaving soon, and this may be our last chance to get to know each other, and... |
| Li | And? |
| Sakura | And even if she does't actually have magical powers, she's still one of us, Li. |
| Li | Liten, stay out of it, Avalon. |
On that night, Sakura and Meilin has just eaten pizza in Sakura's room; Sakura is making tea. | |
| Meilin | Ahh, I am stuffed. Even if the sleepover ends up being kind of lame, it was worth it for the pizza. |
| Sakura | Good. Here. |
| Meilin | Thanks. Where's that silly stuffed animal thing of yours tonight? |
| Sakura | Kero? Oh, he's watching movies with Madison. |
Meanwhile, two magical spirits like twins are causing mischief in the street. | |
Back in Sakura's room, the two girls are about to get in bed. | |
| Sakura | So are you still mad at Li? |
| Meilin | Not mad, but sometimes I feel like I just don't measure up. |
| Sakura | What? How can you say that? You're good at everything! |
| Meilin | Yeah, well, you're pretty good at stuff, too, but you're still a klutz. |
| Sakura | I am? Oh, well... I guess I am sort of a klutz, I suppose. But I... |
| Meilin | You'll grow out of it. |
| Sakura | Really? |
| Meilin | Trust me. |
| Sakura | You and Li go way back, right? |
| Meilin | Hmm. Way back? I suppose you could say that. |
| Meilin starts to tell Sakura about her story back home. | |
| Meilin | My grandfather was a student of Clow Reed's magic, so Li's family and my family have always been very close. I thought that if I studied with Li's teachers and worked really hard, I could become a magician, too. I know I didn't have a gift like Li, but I thought I could learn. |
| Wei is traing Li and Meilin into martial arts. | |
| Wei | Master Li. |
| Meilin | Li never smiled, never spoke. He never said a single word to me. |
| Sakura | Guess some thing never change. |
| Meilin | He was alway very serious. I have to admit. I didn't like him very much. It wasn't just that he was serious, he was arrogant and rude. But then one day... |
| When Li and Wei are walkin in the garden, they hear Meilin sobbing by the empty cage. | |
| Wei |
What's that? What's the matter, Meilin? |
| Meilin | My little bird. I opened the cage to feed it, and flew away. |
| Li steps up to Meilin and gives her handkerhief. | |
| Li | Here. |
| Meilin | Huh? |
| Li | Don't cry. |
| As soon as she receives the handkerchief, Li runs out of the garden. | |
| Wei | Master Li, where are you going?! |
| Meilin | One hour passed, then two. But he didn't come back. It started to rain, and still no sign of him. |
| Meilin is waiting for Li, wathing the garden in rain. Then she hears some footsteps in the rain. | |
| Meilin | Who's that? |
| Meilin | And then, finelly... |
| Meilin | It's Li! He's come back! |
| Meilin goes out in the rain to see Li. | |
| Meilin | What's that? |
| Li shows Meilin the bird he's just found. | |
| Meilin | Ohh. |
| Li | It had better be the right bird. |
| Meilin | Oh, thank you! |
| Li | Take it easy, Meilin. You'll crush your bird. |
| Meilin | From that day on, I knew how big his heart really was. Of course, he didn't speak to me again for a month. |
| Sakura | That sounds like the Li I know. |
| Meilin | And my parents move here, I thought I was ready. I thought if I could help Li capture Cards, maybe he finally see I have special powers, too, and want me around. |
| Sakura | He does, Meilin. |
| Meilin | I wanted to be one of you, but this whole time I've just been in the way. |
| Sakura | No, Meilin. |
| Meilin | What Li said at school today is true. I just stand around and watch you guys. I never should have transferred here in the first place, Sakura. |
| Sakura | No, you're wrong. Remember the Fight Card? |
| Sakura encourages Meilin to remember back the scene of the Fight Card. | |
| Meilin | She doesn't look that tough. |
| Sakura | That Card was one of the strongest and you were the first to take her on. |
| The Fight Card leaps to attack. | |
| Sakura |
Look out! That was close. |
| The Card challenges Meilin instead of Sakura. | |
| Sakura | Huh? It wants to fight Meilin? |
| Kero | Let's hopen she's as good as she thinks she is. |
| The fight starts out advantagous for Meilin. | |
| Meilin | Want to go again? |
| The Card grabs Meilin's kick, and slam her on the ground, and then the Card jumps high to give her a blow. | |
| Sakura | No! Meiliin! |
| Li | Hyah! |
| In the nick of time, Li kicks the Card away into the channel. | |
| Sakura | All that training came through for you. |
| Meilin | Maybe, but what good did it do? Because of me, the Fight Card turned on Li. |
| Sakura | Yeah, but you didn't back down once. |
| The Fight Card attacks to revenge. | |
| Li | Look out! |
| Sakura | Huh? |
| The Cards kick hit Li, and he blown away. | |
| Meilin |
Li! Oh, no! He's hurt! Are you OK? Come on. Wake up. |
| Li | Meilin, behind you! |
| Meilin | You may be a Clow Card... |
| Li | No, wait! |
| Meilin | But I'm Meilin Rae! |
| Gettin furious, Meilin attacks the Fight. | |
| Meilin | It still wasn't enough. Without your magical powers, I'll never really help capture a Card. |
| Sakura | You don't always need magic. Rmember the Cloud Card? I was so sick, I could barely get out of bed. |
| Further, Sakura makes Meilin to remember about the Cloud Card. | |
| Sakura | If it weren't for you, we never would have captured it. |
| Li's fire magic turns the layers of clous into the Cloud Card's visible form. | |
| Sakura | Is it Rain? |
| Kero | No, it's the Cloud Card. Time to do you thing. |
| Sakura | OK, Rain Card... |
| Sakura in the flashback staggers from her fever. | |
| Kero | Sakura! |
| Meilin catches Sakura falling. | |
| Sakura | Thank you, Meilin. |
| Meilin | Are you OK? |
| Sakura | Yeah. |
| Meilin | You can do it. |
| Meilin supports Sakura not to fall while sealing the Card. | |
| Sakura | Cloud Card, return to your power confined! Cloud Card! |
| Sakura | Not exactly my best capture. |
| Meilin | At least it was a capture. I guess I have to accept it. You both have the gift of Clow magic, and I don't. I don't belong here... |
| Sakura | Just because... |
| The moment Sakura is about to encourage Meilin, she senses a Clow Card on the loose. | |
| Sakura | A Clow Card. I gotta call Kero. |
Kero flies throught the air, communicating Sakura on the cell phone. | |
| Kero | Sakura, did you sense it? There's a Clow Card on the loose, and it's heading for the art gallary. Where are you? |
| Sakura | We're on our way, Kero. We'll meet you there, soon. Come on! Huh? |
| Sakura finds Meilin will not move. | |
| Sakura | Meilin, aren't you coming? |
| Meilin | What's the point? |
| Sakura | Huh? |
Kero arrives at above the musium, however, the art works have already gotten affected by the Card. | |
| Kero | Either the museum is collecting doubles of its sculptures, or this is the work of a Clow Card. |
| Kero sees a flash of light some hundres yards away. | |
| Kero | Aah! There it is! |
At the porch of Sakura's house, Sakura is trying to take Meilin out for a capture. | |
| Sakura | We need you, Meilin. You're coming with us. |
| Sakura grab Meilin's hand and takes her out. | |
| Meilin | Aah! But I'm not... |
| Sakura | Yes, you are! We're a team, Meilin. And as long as you're here, you're a part of it. |
Meanwhile, Li is fighting against the Card whose visible form is like twins. | |
| Li | There's two! |
| Kero | Aha! Of course! It's the Twin Card. Whoa! What's that? |
| Li | They've cloned the whole town. There's two of everything. |
| Li's apartment builing is already cloned. | |
| Wei | Master Showron! Are you alright? |
| The voice comes from two of cloned Weis standing at the balcony of two of cloned apartment buildings. | |
| Kero | Whoa! We have got to put a stop to this, kid. |
| Sakura | We're here, Kero! |
| Kero | Huh? What? Sakura! |
| Meilin | Li! |
| Kero | What took you so long? |
| Sakura | Sorry, Kero. |
| Meilin | Li, are you hurt? |
| Li | No. |
| The Twin Cards come fly at Li to attack him. | |
| Li | Look out! |
| Li holds Meilin to dodge the attack. | |
| Li | Are you all right? |
| Meilin | Yeah, I am. |
| The Cards dashes to Sakura. | |
| Sakura | Jump Card! |
| Sakura jumps around and finally gets on the rooftop of a builing, the Twin Cards follow her. | |
| Sakura | Windy! Form a ribbon to contain the Twin Card! Windy! |
| Windy Card confines the Twin, but one of them just escapes. | |
| Sakura | Twin Card, return to your power confined! Twin Card! |
| That one trapped in the Windy gets almost sealed, but soon repusion occurs to get it back to the visible form. | |
| Sakura | What just happened? |
| Kero | Sakura, you have to catch them both at once! |
| Sakura | What? |
| Kero | They're two parts of the same Card. You have to capture them exactly at the same time. |
| Sakura | The same time? |
| The Twin Card is laughing, but soon jump at Sakura. | |
| Sakura | Jump! |
| Sakura is making a run for it jumping around. | |
| Kero | Oh, this does not look good at all. |
| Li | Hey! |
| Kero | Hmm? |
| Li | The same time, right? |
| Kero | Go for it! |
| Li | Ha! Force, know my plight. Release the light! |
| Sakura | Oh! Got it! |
| Li | Lightning! |
| Sakura | Thunder! |
| Two magic catche the each part of the Twin, but not precisely the same time. | |
| Kero | No! That won't work! |
| The Twin Card gets out of the restriction of the magic. | |
| Kero | Yo, listen up! You can't let them catch you exchanging signals. You have to move together as one. |
| Li | Then we'll just try again. |
| Kero | No, it's too late. They're onto you. |
| Sakura | We don't have any choice! We have to try... Huh? Wait a sec! Meilin, we need you! |
| Meilin | Huh? |
| Sakura | You've been training together since you were little kids. You can sense each other's moves without signaling. |
| Meilin | But I can't... |
| Sakura | Yes, you can! Meilin, you know Li's moves inside and out, don't you. |
| Meilin | Well, I guess so. But I don't want to get in the way. |
| Li sheathes his sword. | |
| Li | We can do it, Meilin. |
| Meilin | They're toast. |
| Li&Meilin | Hyah! |
| Li and Meilin leap to attack the Card at the same timing. They give the Card the blow. | |
| Sakura | All right! |
| Li and Meilin run, back-flip, jump onto the Twin's shoulder, and stamp their feet on the Twin in the same manner. | |
| The Twin flips them away to revenge, but Sakura's wind magic takes Li and Meilin safe away. | |
| Sakura | Are you guys OK? |
| Li and Meilin simultaneously starts to dash at the Twin. | |
| Twin Card | Aah! |
| Li&Meilin | Aah! |
| Two of them thrust the Card away, finishing the Twin Card. | |
| Li&Meilin | Now! |
| Sakura | Twin Card, return to your power confined! Twin! |
| Li |
Good work. I... I never really thought that you were in the way, Meilin. |
| Meilin | Thank you, Li. |
On the farewell day, Sakura, Madison and Li see Meilin off at the airport. | |
| Sakura | So this is it. |
| Meilin | Mm-hmm. |
| Sakura | You come back soon, right? |
| Meilin | You bet I will. You guys couldn't keep me away from here for anything. Got it? |
| Wei | Meilin, it's time. Come along now. |
| Meilin |
Coming! Better not let your guard down, Avalon, 'cause I'll be back. |
| Sakura | OK. |
| Meilin | See you later! |
| Sakura | Bye, Meilin. Hurry back soon! |
