======================Chronicles From the City========================
**Prologue**
Who am I?
Blood .. Fire.. Pain..
Is this a dream?
Confusion.. Clarity..
What is real?..
A name..?
L..Li?
Li..Syao..
Li Syaoran!
"I am Li Syaoran .. I am.. Li.. Syaoran..I" Whispering the name over and over again like a mantra, the brown haired young man presses himself tightly into the corner of the tiny cell. His hand grip tightly on the thin blanket in his hands, hoping against hope that it would be enough to protect him against the pain that is sure to come once more. When it does return, he opens his mouth and screamed..

Li Kunan let his gaze wonder over the night view of the city. From his office at the top floor of the Li corporate building, he has an unobstructed view of the entire city. The millions of light flashing in the distance reminded him an endless field of stars.
"Beautiful." He whispers softly to himself, the glass of wine in his right hand raising in a toast. "Marvelous."
"Evil" A female voice said from behind him, a voice filled with venom. "Corrupted."
A dark look crosses Li Kunan's face as he spins sharply around to face the speaker. "It's been twenty years and you still cant accept it eh?"
The speaker, a beautiful woman who appears to be in her late thirties, lets out a bitter laugh and fixes Li Kunan with a look that can only be described as pure hate. "You want me to accept...what? The masterful way you destroyed our clan? or maybe the way that you have perverted the power that our ancestor created?" "I did not destroy our clan" Li Kunan snaps " Rather, I saved it. I brought the dying clan, we and our dying art, out from the cacoon of the the past that we have been hiding and into the world of today. I brought advancement and prestige to our family. Look around you, Xian Hua, Look around and you will see the monument of our success, my dear sister."
"And for this, you murdered our father." the sun would have froze over at the coldness in her voice, but Li Kunan merely raised an eyebrow at the remark.
"He was in the way of things, he stubbornly held onto the traditional view and refuse to accept any change. It was necessary for the advancement of the Clan. They wanted to keep the power for themselves, I only wanted the best for everyone."
" 'Best for everyone indeed' I suppose it is in my best interest that you took Syaoran from me?" A frown crosses her face and her demeanor changes from cold and dissapproving to almost pleading. "Just leave me alone then, give back my son and let us live in peace."
" You know that is impossible, Syaoran has a gift that nobody else have. So far only he have successfully use the cards as their were meant to be used, and since no one have yet been able to use the Wand. He is the only link we have in fully exploit the powers of the cards." Ignoring his sisters pleading tone completely, Li Kunan speaks in a voice that would have suggested that he is talking about weather.
" You are a monster!" She screamed.
"It is for the greater good of the future."
"And you would sacrifice your entire family for it?"
"If it's necessary." He says simply.

Her dream was a dark and violent one, she cannot recall any specific detail, only the vague feeling that it had been dark and awful. Absently, she rubs her eyes and was surprised to find wetness there. Had she been crying in her sleep? Rolling to her side, she lay quietly on the bed, staring into the silver crescent moon. A soft wind blows by, rattling the branches so that it beats against the window, and for a moment, she thought she heard a voice, whispering to her. A voice that was in her half forgotten dream, voices that seem familiar yet not they said: "We have been waiting , We have been waiting...... for you.... Sakura.."
