#akiho committing arson for love

[aliceinclockland]

Clear Card headcanon: Yuna D. Kaito lies about how Akiho doesn't have any hint of magic (she actually does but it's very little and faint) inside her, in hopes that the magic association would leave her alone and let her have a normal life but the congregation still proceeded making her a walking spellbook...

Years later, Akiho and Yuna D. Kaito went back home but with a few surprise guests (Syaosaku) and the 3 of them— also aided by Eriol behind the scenes, fights the members of the association in exchange for YunaAki's freedom while Akiho, being "magicless", just watches.

Devastated at the site of war that's unfolding in front of her eyes, she desperately screamed, begging everyone to stop— unleashing her hidden powers all at once, burning the entire place down except her cherished people.

Turns out that Lilie sensed Akiho's powers when she was born, and in fear of the association going after her daughter when she's gone, she casted a spell concealing all the magic inside her— except that she didn't fully contain it.

notes:

in this headcanon, Lilie doesn't have the powers to see the future yet, she discovers she can do it a few months before she and her husband passes away from the accident.

same things happen with the canon— they travelled around the world together with Momo and her Alice in Clockland book, went to Japan and meeting the Tomoeda peeps... but here's the part that changes— Sakura discovering the truth about Momo and Clockland book after her gut feeling says there's something more to Akiho (and she and Syaoran, with Eriol & Yelan's aid, did some researching), then Sakura confessing to Akiho that she's Alice in Clockland and offers a helping hand to her. Then they formulated a plan to get both Yuna D. Kaito and Akiho free from the congregation's control.

Akiho's powers here was released because of the intense feelings she's experiencing— guilt, anger, sadness, etc. Her emotions amplified her desire to help the people she cherished because she didn't want anyone to suffer.
