The Cave


Summary

Sakura is on her field trip at the seaside. When she swims offshore, she sees Li standing at the opening of the cave. Her friends call her to join them with a beach volleyball, so she swim back to the shore and enjoys volleyball. The whistle blows, and all the kids stand in line and draw a beach seine. They have a good haul.

After the lights-out, Sakura's group are talking about the ancient shrine walk they are to have the next day. Though Sakura is pretty scared of it, Naoko begins a scary story about the kids taking on a shrine walk just like themselves. She is completely scared and can not fall asleep, so she walks outside, when Li taps her on the shoulder. They sit by the shore, and talk together. According to the talk, Li lives along with his mother's cousin Wei. He says Clow Cards are important to his family because Clow Reed is his ancestor.

Next night, the ancient shrine walk begins; Sakura looks pale before she enters the cave. Madison leads her into the cave by the hand. Strangely enough they don't see any candle lights from any other kids, so Madison feels a little creepy. They hear Chelsa cry out beyond the bridge, so they run up to the scene. Chelsea and Rita are crying that Nikki vanished, and just before them, Rita and Chelsea vanishe. Sakura and Madison run back on the bridge, when Madison vanishes so the candle she held drops on the bridge. The bridge catches on fire, Sakura can do nothing but see it burn down. Li runs to Sakura and soothes her practically upset. He said it is the work of a Clow Card, and she uses the Float to transport them across the water. When they reach the other side, Syaoran is fading out. Sakura concentrate, and find the active Card is in the old shrine. She swings open the shrine door and seals the Card, which is the Erase Card.

Next morning, nobody quite remembers what happened in the shrine walk. Syaoran said that the Erase Card erased their memory as well.

Madison asked Sakura what she was going to leave behind the shrine in the walk, and Sakura replied, “I was wondering if we could leave Li there.” Well, Li is their joke bit. Sakura said to Tomoyo that she couldn't sleep the night before, walked out around, and talked to Syaoran for a while.
Sakura and the others took part in the ancient shrine walk for some in-site education of rural history. Sakura and the other walked inside the cave for testing their courage.
