Hey everyone! I'm proud to say that, at last, I have gained enough guts to write my first fan fiction. Yey! This is something about a tragic but romantic story… Or so I think it is. Read on to find out since I'm not quite sure myself… Enjoy! Oh and please do send me some reviews. I would really appreciate it a lot! Arigatou minna-san!

Disclaimer: I was hoping to own CCS, I could've drawn Sakura in the age of 16 in the last episode just to show you how she would look… Sadly I don't own it, Clamp does… I'm sure everyone here wishes to own it, am I right?

Chapter 1: The Raging Storm

"How.. What.. Who… Who are you!"

"Don't worry, please calm down!"

"No… Please, let go of me! Who are you..? Who… are y-"

It was indeed a cold winter's afternoon. Everyone was busy having their last minute shopping at every mall in town. The spirit of Christmas is starting to fill the air, since there's only one more week and the gifts under everyone's tree is to be opened. The Christmas carols can be heard making every listener smile, and one of them is a 16yr old girl with auburn colored hair and bright emerald green eyes.

"Hey Sakura! It's nice to see you here, are you also having your last minute shopping?" asked a girl with ebony black hair and amethyst colored eyes.

"No, not really Tomoyo… I've done mine days ago, I was just having a stroll." she answered.

"Wanna come with me then?" Tomoyo hoped for a yes.

"Sorry, I should be visiting my brother today. I wanted to treat him since I feel like being generous for some reason." 'Even though the truth is I lost to him on a bet the other day.' she sighed at the thought of it.

"Oh, that's too bad… I was hoping you could come with me though, maybe next time, you promise okay! See you around then, bye!" Tomoyo sighed with dismay and waved goodbye to her.

'I never wanted to put her down, if I didn't take that bet with Onii-chan the other day, then maybe I could've gone with her by now.' she said to herself as she was crossing the pedestrian lane to the facility where her brother, Touya works.

"Onii-chan!" greeted Sakura.

"Oh, kaijuu! I was afraid you'd run away from our deal, good thing you showed-up." Touya said with a very annoying smirk on his face.

"Do you always have to address me of the word 'kaijuu' all the time? Why can't you call me by the name SA-KU-RA?" she complained.

"Maybe it's because you look like one… umm… you act like one and… you talk like one." Touya said still trying to annoy Sakura.

'Hmph! Stupid Onii-chan! I hate him so much sometimes; if only he treats me a lot nicer then I won't be pissed right now.' She whispered under her breath.

"Are you mumbling anything over there?" Touya asked suspiciously.

"No, nothing! What will I mumble about?" she replied in an instant as Touya was staring at her, still being suspicious. After a while, he returned to what he was doing.

"Whew…"

Minutes passed, someone came in from the door. A young man with silver hair, whom was Yukito.

"Kombanwa!" he greeted.

"Kombanwa Yukito!" Sakura greeted back.

"Hey, Yukito… What brings you here? You're in a day off right?" Touya asked.

"Yeah, but have you forgotten that we should be doing an important errand this afternoon? I came here to fetch you since your shift is almost over. I never thought Sakura would be here." he said.

"Oh yeah, I forgot. I'll come with you, Sakura treat me tomorrow then. I'm sure you're quite pissed at me. You can now go home." he ordered her who stood surprised.

"I can come with you, I don't have much to do anyway." she said.

"No I insist, you can go home, me and Yukito will be doing something. Get home and fix yourself some dinner, and don't mind about dad. He told me he won't be coming home 'till tomorrow." he said and left to change to his clothes.

"I'm sorry Sakura," Yukito apologized. "Touya must've forgotten that we had an important errand to do. I never thought she had some business with you." he told her disappointedly.

"That's okay, I can always treat him at any other day, from the look on your faces I could guess that this is really important. If you want I can treat you out with Onii-chan." she

said with a grin on her face.

"Okay, I'm really sorry, anyway, thank you very much Sakura." he smiled.

" I should be going now, it's getting a bit dark outside. Tell Onii-chan that I've gone already. Take care, goodbye!" she waved goodbye to Yukito and left the facility.

'Must be that I'm not as important as his errand. I really wanted to be with him since we rarely talk. I really planned to lose on that bet so I can spend some time with him. But maybe now isn't the right time…" she thought to herself as she was walking to somewhere she didn't gave notice to. She was too occupied to pay attention to where she was going.

The wind was blowing fierce and snow started to fall as she was walking. Only did she take notice on it when it was getting too cold. She came up to her senses and saw that the place in where she was is not familiar to her. She was lost. The storm is becoming worse and it's been too difficult to even see. She ran away hoping to find shelter, she was relieved when she took sight of the road and ran towards it.

Not far away, a woman was driving fast on the road. Like Sakura, she wanted to get out of the storm since it became hard to see. She will be buried inside the car if she takes a stop so she continued driving despite of the rude weather. She saw a silhouette crossing on the road she was driving on but didn't took notice until she heard a loud scream.

"Ahhh!" The girl fell on the ground. The woman went out of the car despite of the weather to see what she came across. She saw a girl lying helplessly on the ground all covered in blood. Her mind suddenly became empty; she didn't know what to do…

Author's words:

Whew! That was tiring… I hope you like it. This is just the beginning. I know it didn't show a lot of characters but I'll try to add them little by little. I'm going to update soon. I'm hoping to have a lot of reviews from you, tell me if I should continue it, it seems kind of corny… just tell me what you think about it… I'm still a persevering writer. I would gladly accept comments or even errors if there were any. I hope you enjoyed it! See you! Until next time! -Shiju
