…

"Why do you have to go?"

"I'm really sorry"

"Well you should be! Promising me all that stuff and you leaving the week after…."

"Please forgive me….really….well here! At least take this with you….I-It'll bring you a lot of luck…especially from me…."

"Oh! T-Thanks….I want you to have this too! I-I made it j-just for you!"

"Wow…thank you…."

A voice of a woman screaming at the top of her lungs was heard

"Syaoran we have to go! We'll be late for our flight!"

"Please….please don't go….I-I wanna hear more of you're music!"

"Hehe….you already heard me play…it's kinda embarrassing…"

"No it's not! I could actually feel my heart for once! I-I….."

"I have to go…Goodbye…."

"No! Don't go! Don't leave me….!"

"I promise I'll come back! I promise! I'll come back for you…!"

"NO!"

A gasp. A gasp was all that Sakura Kinomoto could do after waking up from a cold night's sleep. Her bedroom, al dressed in white with hinges of pink kept screaming to 'wake up' but her heart kept beating so fast for the dream not to end…Whatever it was she always dreamt it everyday since she was 7. Her face covered now with swear dripping all over and her hair in all messy form. She had an almost tall figure with curves a man could fall for but couldn't. Short auburn hair and beautiful emeralf green eyes. Her table and her bed filled with stuffed toys.

She wiped her forehead with her long sleeves. She breathed heavily as if some sort of nightmare was befallen upon her.

"W-What is that dream?" she thought to herself. She got up and looked at the clock. It was 7:35 AM. Too early for her but even if it was she still woke up and never went back to her fluffy, soft and elegant pink and white bed which greatly complimented both her room and her style. A girly yet composite mixture of rebel. Ever since her mother and father died she became confused. Confused of why they left her. Why she was left with just their memories and a glimpse of their smiles. Every time she would look at her self in the mirror, she just wished she could see them again.

She went into her bathroom, flourished with shiny blue tiles of penguins on each and every one. She turned on the lights and looked at herself in her bigger-than-life mirror. She turned on the faucet as cold water came out pouring her heart into the sink. Every splatter of water reminded her of her haunting yet beautiful dreams…

Casually looking upon her life as she knew it…

She knew her life all too well that it wouldn't pace up to what she had hoped for…With only support from her brother, Touya, her bestfriends, Eriol and Tomoyo, it's all gonna be worthless……She wanted to dance…Dance her life away into the arms of the people she loved the most…Her parents and….and….who is the other one? Dreaming of 3 people…she assumed that the 2 were her parents…her longing to see them was to great to be a no-no. But a smile is the only thing she could ever remember about the faded face of the man next to her parents. No matter what she could never recall the face that was supposed to bring her non-pirouette days over. Ballet was her passion, her dream, her sacrifice. But..it was gone. She couldn't dance, she couldn't play…Nothing…her feelings were empty…And yet she chose to be brave…..Brave about the past, the present and the future…No matter what it was. But she didn't choose one thing…the thing that stood in her way of going back to loving life…

She didn't choose to be brave.

Brave enough to take the rough course called LIFE.

She dressed up in her usuals. Pink tank top with writings of pink "Prom Queen" and her white and black sports skirt. She walked downstairs and picked up her bag. She then went in the kitchen and took her quiet breakfast.

"Where's Touya?" she said to herself as she helped herself to a spoonful of oats.

"OVER HERE monster" screamed a loud voice of a man maybe over his twenties. It was Touya. Guessing that he heard Sakura talking to herself, he ran over to his sister and gave her the usual noogies.

"Quit IT!"

"Monster…eat your food! Hahahaha!"

Touya was a lot older than Sakura was. If Sakura was 17, then Touya was 26. His job was to keep the house in order (Although he doesn't really do it) and get food on the table. He already has a boyfriend, namely Yukito.

(A/N: Yeah, yaoi but c'mon! You gotta love them!)

"When will you start acting you're age!" said Sakura wiping the oats that flew of the table

"When YOU do!" answered Touya, arms up front and pacing up and down to cool of Sakura's head

"Aren't you late for work!" annoyingly asked Sakura

"Aren't you late for school?" answered Touya sarcastically

"I…I think I'm not-" but before she could answer Touya butted in and pulled her upwards out of her cozy chair

"You're not thinking of not going to school now are yah?" asked Touya

It took a while before she nodded a guilty nod and Touya put her back down.

"Well yah shouldn't!"

"Why not!" shouted Sakura

"Because one, IM older, two, IM wiser and three, I tried to do that but I got caught so now I'm telling you!" answered Touya. His laughs could be heard all over the neighborhood already.

It's not like I'm gonna listen to him or anything..! Right…?

Thought Sakura wandering into space and wishing she would be better off without school.

She attended Loiuse Contoure' Academy of Ballet, A highly classified school that teaches a great deal of poise and grace in the stage as well as in your home. Tomoyo goes there as well. In fact they're classmate. Eriol goes there sometimes to watch, mainly, Tomoyo perform.

"Well, gotta go! Yuki's waiting for me by the park. DON'T you DARE go skip school!" said Touya as he departed out from the door and slammed it shut.

"OHHHHH! HE MAKES ME SOOOOOO……!"

knock, knock..

A knock could be heard from outside. A girl with long indigo hair flowing beneath her strapping gown. She was the only barrier from Sakura actually cursing Touya.

Knock, knock, knock….

More knocks could be heard. Sakura decided to depart from her comfy seat and open the door. It was Tomoyo Daidoujii, Sakura's best friend since grade-school.

"Hello Sakura. Good Morining! Have a nice breakfast….so far…?" said Tomoyo seeing the oats all splattered on the floor and on the table.

"Oh…Tomoyo..! S-Sorry for that! I-I just got a bit mad at….touya for a second there..! Well are you ready to go?"

"Yup! Um….don't you wanna clean that up first?" suggested Tomoyo offering a smile to cheer up Sakura's day.

Tomoyo usually does that… She smiles to make you feel better. She talks when no one will. She's the best friend…So…what did Sakura have that made her feel like Tomoyo did? She's loved by everyone and she's good at everything…All Sakura ever wanted was to be loved too. And that wasn't the reason why Sakura became friends with Tomoyo. No it wasn't.

"R-Right..!"

…

Are you sure you wanna do this boy? I mean you're pretty damn famous! You got it goin' on! Are you absolutely, positively, SURE you wanna…..

YES! For the 40th time today, yes I'am sure! Pretty damn sure!

Alright…are you gonna be okay around campus? That school's pretty damn big! You might get lost! I'm not even sure they'll let you in with a dog!

They will. I asked for a permit 5 weeks ago in advance.

Then…you already knew you were going to that ballet school in Japan?

Yes. I knew.

But why Japan?

I…I honestly don't know but something tells me….that I'm going here for a reason.

Dude, EVERYTHING has a reason!

I know! I know but….this reason is something I can't miss….I reason is what I need to go there!

Fine, Fine! When will you're piano get shipped?

Around the time I get there as well. They have different tolls nowadays.

I'm guessing that you're gonna be a teacher there?

Yup. How'd you….

Dude it's an ALL GIRL SCHOOL that teaches BALLET. How could I have not guessed? And you're gonna be the youngest teacher there! Are you sure you can cope up with it? I mean, you're famous all around!

If it means finding what I have to then…I'll do it

But why a teacher?

Because….because I want to teach girls how to dance at their own feelings and not at command.

Sure, whatever you say…

"We have arrived at Tomoeda Airport. Please retrieve your belongings and take off your seatbelts."

We're here…..so have you decided what you're name is gonna be?

What…?

Well you're famous dude! You need an alias!

How about….Liao?

Liao?

Professor Liao….i like it …how bout you?

Whatever. Let's go you'll be late.

Right…

…

"Whew! That was quick!"

"I know! Isn't it a coincidence how I managed to knock on your door and help you clean up? Hohohohohohohoo!"

"R-Right…."

"Anyways, Sakura did you hear?"

"hmmm…? What is it?"

"There's gonna be a new teacher!"

"It's not like it's gonna make a difference! I still wont dance."

"I'm wondering why you even enrolled in a ballet school and you stopped dancing!"

"Well…..I'm not sure why!"

"Well whoever this new teacher is, he better make you dance! Hohohohohohoh! I've got to video tape you!"

"Okay…Well we're here! Lets go!"

………

A/N: Sorry for the lack of dialog there! I got a bit lazy! Here's a sneak preview of the next chapter! (Hopefully getting 5 reviews…)
