Prologue

Many years ago when Clow Reed created the Clow Cards and the four guardians he was visited by an old friend, Kaosu. Kaosu told Clow about Talpa, and how he had created the nine armors to stop the demon if he should ever rise again. After receiving this knowledge from Kaosu, Clow informed him that he had finally finished his Clow Cards and offered to help Kaosu create a backup in case the bearers of the armors did not successfully fight Talpa. Kaosu agreed and together they created the Medallions of the Elements:
The Katana of Fire (Red) m
The No-Datchi of Light (Green) f
The Yari of Water (Light Blue) f
The Naginata of Earth (Orange) m
The Bow of Wind (Blue) f
The Kusari-Gama of Strength (Yellow) m
The Katanas of Venom (Green) m
The No-Datchi of Darkness (Black) f
The Chin-lin-tao of Illusions (Purple) f
Once the Medallions were sealed four new guardians were created:
Daedalus to guard the Chosen m
Miriamele to judge the Worthy f
Amber Sun to protect the Descendent f
Sapphire Moon to lead the Challenger f


Chapter I
The Medallions Awaken

Yulie had found a strange book in Mia's library, normally he asked her before he took one of her books but this one called to him. He opened the book in his bedroom and found that inside it was a hollow with nine medallions neatly stacked in the center. He picked up the topmost medallion (a half dollar sized metal coin that was dark blue with a bow and arrow embossed on the coin, the word Wind underneath)
"Wind?” he read unsure if he should even be touching this book. Suddenly the coin vanished and was replaced with a tall blue elflike spirit wielding the bow and arrow depicted on the coin. She shot the arrow causing a huge gust of wind to fill his room and escape out of the window taking all of the coins with it except for the one she had originated from. The spirit suddenly returned to her coin form.
'Oh no, I'm going to be in so much trouble if Mia or the guys find out.' he thought. Any thoughts after that were interrupted by a being coming out of the book. It was a small white stuffed cat toy with gossamer fae wings.
"So you are the Chosen One? You don't look like much but then looks can be deceiving." he said, “I am Daedalus the Guardian Beast of the Medallions of the Elements. By reading out loud the keyword to the Bow of the Wind you have awakened her power and inadvertently separated the other medallions. Now you have to find the other eight to control their powers, I will help you."
"But how do I do it?” asked Yulie.
"You will need the Wand of Elements to awaken them, but to collect the medallions you must defeat them in one-on-one combat. Because you awoke the bow she remained to aid you in your quest. You can now either summon her to defend you or summon her weapon and fight for yourself."
"But where is the wand?" Yulie asked still pretty confused, he had seen some strange things in his thirteen years of life but this was the strangest.
"It is over here," Dae said as he pointed to a small golden key with a globe the size of a marble at its head, "To change the key into the wand you must say this verse:
"Oh, key of the Elements
Raging Fire, Foaming Sea
Endless Light, Eternal Darkness
Surrender your power now to me
Release"
"That's all?” he asked incredulous.
"That is all required to summon the wand, to awaken a medallion you must recite what your heart directs. While I am in this form you may call me Dae, in my true guise, which you will not see for a long while, you should call me by my full name.” answered Dae,

"Remember you are the Chosen One and nothing and no one can take that from you. Also I will be with you always if you need help. Try to act as if your life has not changed, goodnight."

Li was watching the T.V. when he heard on the news that there was a freak fire downtown and nothing the fire fighters could do stopped it.
'That sounds like magic, ‘he thought and then he quickly called Sakura on his cell phone.
"Sakura we have a problem!" he said as soon as she answered her phone.
"I know Li, meet me downtown quick.” was her reply.
Thirty minutes later Li found himself at the site of the fire in his battle gear standing beside Sakura in her new fighting outfit made by Madison.
As soon as he stepped near the fire all the flames formed into that of an elflike spirit armed with a single katana. He pointed his blade towards Li in a challenge that could not be refused. Li realized
this and soon readied his own blade in a fighting stance.
The fight was long and hard, Li nearly lost several times but he finally bested the spirit of the Katana. Once he did the spirit dissipated leaving only a red medallion in its place. Li picked up the medallion for closer inspection and found it warm to the touch. Embossed upon it was a Katana and a single word beneath it Fire.
"Li, what is it?” asked Sakura as she ran up to him.
"I don't know.” he replied.
"It is the Medallion of Fire,” announced a female voice from behind them. When they turned they saw a black stuffed cat toy with birdlike wings.
"So it's you Sapphire, I should have known,” said a male but with gold fur and angel wings.
"Kero, you know her?” asked Sakura.
"He should. I came here because you, Li, have bested the Fire Spirit of the Medallions. There are eight others and one has already been collected, so you have seven others to find,” she said rather smugly.
"How do you..."Li began.
"...know your name?" Sapphire finished, “And you Sakura are probably wondering how I know Keroberos. Well I know many things, but that is a story to be told at a later date. What you need to know is that you have to collect the Medallions. You can't help him with the cards Sakura the battles must be one-on-one to prove that he will be able to use them without help if there is none to ask for. However if it were a real emergency, like demons arriving on the Mortal Realm then your help would be much appreciated. I am to guide you as well as Keroberos guides Sakura, and as Daedalus guides the other."
"So Dae is here too, wow, I had no idea that this would happen so soon. And what of Amber?” asked Kero.
"She is to guard the descendent, who can quite likely defend herself seeing as how powerful she is already," Sapphire replied, "It is time to rest, go home."
