Chapter 1
~*~
And so it began......
A pale hand moved down long pale violet hair, that rippled down slender
shoulders.
Upon a dress that was also pale purple, as
diamonds streaked the sides of the dress. Hugging her curvy slender figure,
she gripped the microphone, and breathed.
The crowd went wild with applause, a smiled formed on her lips, that carried
pale
purple shiny lipstick.
Before she could utter a voice, a unknown person shouted, "I LOVE YOU RAVEN!"
she smiled once again, and responded.
"I love you too" she said in a small but sexy
voice. The person fainted. The woman who was pointed out was none other,
than Tomoyo Doudjui, singer name, Raven. She
was the woman who was known to have the voice of a million angels,
and the looks of a goddess, the voice of the
sky, and the eyes of the night. She was loved world wide, but even though,
she
had all that she was still sad.........
She pressed her lips upon the microphone, and began.
Take with you my life and my love
take me with you everything, that you know
will
haunt me, cause,
when you said good-bye, and broke my heart,
that day started
my unhappy life.....
I loved you more than words
can say, and you took it all away!
I can never forgive you for that.......
Her
purple eyes moved across the audience, they was struck with sadness, and
sorrow.
Tomoyo looked upon her many admirers, wondering
if even half, has lived the life she'd lived.... she decided to
continue.
You knew
what you we're doing,
the day you packed your bags, and forgot to
say good-bye.
You knew how much it'd hurt inside! but you
didn't care! no!
you didn't care!
I loved you more than
words can express, and you took it all away!
Her voice died
down.
I can never forgive you for that.......no.....
I can never forgive you for (pause ) that........
She finished her song, and looked up has the crowd roared with applause
she smiled to herself.
The lights dimmed, hiding her in shadows,
a shiny glossy tear made a trail down her cheeks. "I love you" she said
before
she turned and walked slowly off the stage.
~*~
"Tomoyo you did great!" came the voice of sakura, she looked up at her,
"thanks"
sakura grew sad. "You've been crying again
haven't you?" tomoyo wiped the tears from her cheek, "yes I can't help
it, I
just...." she trailed off, has syaoran sakura's
fiancee approached. "Hey tomoyo you did a wonderful job" he said putting
his
arms around sakura. "Thanks li" she said walking
pasted him.
She then
stopped and turned around, "i'll see you later" sakura and syaoran nodded.
Tomoyo then
disappeared among the shadows.

Outside of 'raven records' a man stepped out of a shiny dark blue lexis.
He looked up at the tall building, has a
cat sat on his shoulders, "this is we're she
works?" he asked turning to the cat, "Yes the all famous tomoyo doudjui
works
here" he smiled, "yea!" came the voice of
a woman. "She works here! YEA!" she cried grabbing the man's hand. "Come
on eriol-
sama! I can hardly wait to see tomoyo again
it's been so long!" eriol moved his hand from her grasp, "Nakuru compose
yourself we are in public!" he said firmly.
She looked down, "I'm
sorry....'" she then brightened up, "But I want to see her!" she grabbed
eriols arm again, and
dragged him into the building.

Tomoyo
was in her dressing room, brushing her hair ever so slowly, the lights
was off, and she stared
longily at her lonely reflection. "Sweet little
plum blossom, you bring me so much joy, and when i'm gone you won't
forget me, and I won't be here anymore" she
began to sing the lullaby her mom, use to sing before she died. She felt
her
eyes well up, has she continued, "and when
i'm gone you won't forget me, sweet little plum blossoms, you have my
heart..." she couldn't hold it in anymore.
And she bursted into tears.
~You've been crying again haven't you?~ tomoyo sniffed, "Yes sakura I have
i'm so sorry, I
just can't I-"
KNOCK! KNOCK!
KNOCK!
"Tomoyo!" she turned toward the door, "It's
me nakuru, you're big sister!" tomoyo wiped the tears away quickly, and
ran to the door. She opened and nakuru engulfed
her in a hug, "OOOOOHH tomoyo i'm so happy to see you!" "Me too!"
she said prying nakuru from her, so she could
breathe. Nakuru moved back, and studied tomoyo, "you've got so much more
prettier!" tomoyo half smiled
"No" came an' unknown voice,
"you've more beauty, my dear doudjui-san" the owner of the voice stepped
up,
the young Eriol Hiirigaziwa, who was said
to have the spirit of mozart and beethoven in his blood, when is pale hands
streaked across piano keys. Tomoyo looked
shocked, but she smiled. "You don't look so bad yourself, Mr. composer"
he
chuckled, "haven't changed at all, good" he
replied, it soon grew silent a very awkward silence. Nakuru has never been
quiet for so long. (2 seconds) "Um, can someone
talk" eriol turned to nakuru.
She soon got
the idea. "Bye tomoyo-san I will see you later right, and you'll
sing to me right?" she blurted out, all at
one time. "Yes nakuru i'd be honored to sing
to you, "YEA!" she then grabbed spinal, "Come on suppi-chan, we have to
get
ready!" and in less than a second, they we're
gone.
Tomoyo turned from
eriol, and sat back down. "So keeper of my heart what brings you back?"
she said a sly grin on
her face, he looked down, "kaho lefted
me (Puase) really we left each other, we knew it wouldn't work, we both
loved another"
tomoyo brought her hand to her chin, "so who
do you love, if not kaho?" she asked skeptically, staring intently at him.
It grew silent, once again,
awkward silence. "Well?" she said. He walked slowly toward her, and kneeled
down in front
of her.
"Tomoyo
it has taken me 6 long years to say this, but it was always you" he stared
into her eyes, she looked shocked,
she couldn't speak, but she spoke anyway,
"You-" "no" he put his hand to her mouth, then he pulled out a ring. "Tomoyo
if
you wish to return my love, the next time
you see me, it will be on your ring finger, if not, then it with wither
away in die..."
He trailed off standing up, and
walked toward the door, "As long has it takes, I love you tomoyo douidjui"
he then
turned the doorknob and lefted.
Leaving tomoyo
alone.........
