As the sun set I could hear screaming in the town. I wanted to go down and help, but father said it would be better for me to stay where I was. I felt horrible, I was hiding wail others stood their ground and fought for our kingdom. Mother and father had gone to help and have not come back. I can only hope that they are safe and unharmed.
"Mother, where are you!" I yelled as I came out of my room.
"My lady your have to stay in your room where it is safe," Madison said as she pushed me into my room.
"But where is mother and father?" I asked as she locked the door behind her.
"I will tell you everything once this is over," she said as we heard a slam on the door.
"What's going on?" I asked in a scared voice.
"The things that are in the kingdom are after a power that no one knows about except your mother, father, and myself," she said as she grabbed my arm and brag me to a hidden stair case.
"What is it?" I asked as we heard another slam on the door. "I don't know what it is, but they want it and will not stop till they have it in their hands," she said as we moved faster.
"Where are we going?" I asked as she opened another door to an underground passage.
"You will see soon," she said as we ran into the forest.
As we came to a walk I could see how much has happened. All the houses in the woods are gone and the beautiful color of green in the grass as died. It was like all the color in the kingdom was sucked out and all the life was left for dead. I didn't like it and I wanted it to stop.
"Your mother wanted me to give this to you," She said as we stopped in a shaded area.
"What is it?" I asked as I picked up the necklace from her hand.
"It's a special gem that can help you on your path," She said in a whisper.
"What path?" I asked as we heard foot steps coming strait to us.
"You must hurry, I will meet you in the other side," she said as she pushed my into a swirl of colors.
THUD! "What did I land on?" I said as I looked under myself.
"Hey, would get the hell off of me," a voice said from under me.
"Sorry, are you okay?" I asked as I got up.
"I am fine," the boy said as he wiped himself off. "Where did you come from anyway?" he asked as I looked around.
"I don't know," I said as I looked at him.
"What's your name?" he asked as I wiped some dirt off my dress.
"My name is Sakura," I said hoping not to use my last name. "What's yours?" I asked as I sat on a bench.
"My names Syaoran," he said in a short breath.
"It's nice to meet you," I said as I got back up. "What kingdom is this," I asked as I looked at the small houses.
"This is the Crystal Kingdom," He said with a puff.
"Thanks," I said as I started to walk off.
"Hey where are you going," he asked as I turned around.
"I don't know," I said with a sigh.
I knew of this place just I never thought I would go here. It's so far away from my kingdom that I just never thought about it. I have to get back to my kingdom and help my family, but how am I going to do that. There are so many questions that I need to ask, but I don't know who to ask.
"Hey… Hey Sakura, if you have no where to stay you can stay at my home," Syaoran said with a studier.
"Thank you very much, but I don't want to get you sucked in to my troubles," I said walking away.
"Your coming with me," said a man in a black.
"Hey let go of me!" I yelled as I pulled my arm as hard as I could.
"You are wanted in the kingdom of Sunlight," the man said as I fell to my knees hearing that name. That was my kingdom.
"Let go of me," I said as I pulled even harder than before.
"You are a trouble maker for my kind and I will not put up with this," he said as a jolt of pain went through my body.
The last thing I remember before everything went black was Syaoran running at the man in the black outfit, and I then drifted into darkness.
"Sakura! Sakura! Are you alright?" Syaoran asked as I slowly opened my eye's.
"What happened?" I asked as I rubbed my head.
"Don't worry about that right now," a woman said as I looked around. "Are you okay?" she asked as I got up.
"I am fine," I said with a shaky voice. "Syaoran your hurt, are you okay?" I asked as I saw a cut on the side of Syaoran's face.
"I am fine, what about you?" he asked as I looked out the window.
"I am fine, but I fell like I was hit in the back of the head with something hard," I said as I rubbed the back of my head.
"Well you were," he said as I turned to him.
"Oh my god, what time is it?" I asked as I looked for a clock.
"You slept for about a day," the women said as she gave me some tea.
"Thank you for helping me," I said as I looked out the window again.
"Where are you from," she asked as I put the tea cup down.
"I come from a place far away from here," I said with a frown.
"Don't worry about it, you just get better okay," the women said as I sat down.
"Well, I'll be down stairs if you need me," Syaoran said as he got up.
"Don't go," I said as looking up at him.
"Why?" he asked as I sat on the bed.
"I feel safe when you're around," I said as tears swelled up in my eyes.
"Okay then I'll stay till you're ready for me to leave," he said in a sweet voice.
"Thank you," I said as I slowly feel into a deep sleep.
"No!" I yelled as I jumped forward. I could tell it was night, but it seamed like it was darker than night. As I got up out of the bed I was in I looked to see Syaoran in a chair sleeping. He had kept his word. It was the first time anyone has ever done that for me. On the side of him was an outfit that had a tag on it, it was for me. I changed and then went down stairs to find the fire burning brightly. It was nice and it made me feel at home. I missed my home and all the people I knew.
After watching the bright fire I looked at the small room and thought on how I was going to get home. Thinking about all the training my father gave me on how to fight I thought I could leave and go home.
Grabbing some food, some other stuff, and leaving a note saying that I was thankful for everything they have done for me I left the small home. Hoping that my journey will get me home and that no one will find out who I really am I set forth to the forest. The small town of a large kingdom slowly drifted away as the forest got closer. I then thought on how lucky this kingdom is, to be at peace and have little worry about the outside world.
"Hey, where do you think your going," a voice said from behind me. I turned to see ember eye's looking into mine. His messy chestnut hair in my face, I could tell who it was. It was Syaoran and boy did he look mad.
"I am going home," I said trying to keep a strait face.
"Then I am going with you," he said as I broke our eye contact.
"No your not," I said as I went to pick up my stuff off the ground.
"Yes I am," he said grabbing my stuff before I could.
"How about this, we fight," I said not really explaining what I meant.
"What?" he asked in astonishment.
"If we fight and I win you don't come, but if you win you can come," I said with a smirk.
"Fine," he said as we shuck on it.
So the battle began, if I win he doesn't come, but if he wins he comes. This should be more fun than fighting my older brother. I could tell Syaoran was good, but I didn't know how good, and that could be a problem.
Syaoran came running up to me at a faster speed than I thought he was going to move. Catching me off guard I fell to the ground and rolled. Moving as fast as I could I made a swing for his abdomen. I had hit him but not with my full strength, it was like my strength was gone. It must have been from everything that has happened. As I slowed down I could see Syaoran's weak spots, but it was to later before I could anything he got me where it hurt.
"You okay, I didn't mean to hit your that hard," he said as he put out a hand to help me up.
"I am fine," I said with a sigh.
"I guess I am coming with you," he said with a small chuckle.
"You don't have to come," I said hoping he would change his mind.
"Nope, I am still coming wither you like it or not," he said with a smirk on his face.
"Where are you from anyway?" he asked for the tenth time.
"Its far from hear and I really don't want to talk about it," I said in a low voice. I still have to find the Madison and get home to help my family and our kingdom, but I can't tell him any of that. "We start off tomorrow," I said as I looked at the night sky.
I couldn't sleep and I didn't want to wake Syaoran up, so I grabbed the sword that lay on the side of me and made my way to an opening near the river. Taking the sword out of its holder I slowly began to practice the way my father had trained me to. I never thought I might need to use the training or to use the moves that my mother showed me. I never wanted to use a sword or anything that might hurt someone. The more I thought about this the more I hated it, and the more I forgot about my surroundings. I then realized that something was wrong and I began to come back to the real world.
"Who's there," I asked as I looked around. "Come out now or you'll regret it," I said moving into a fighting position. There was no sound coming from any direction and I didn't know where the thing or person was. This wasn't the best place to get trapped into a fight. "What can I do, what can I do?" I asked myself as I thought about what to do. Then I dawned on me, SYAORAN!
Running as fast as I could I ran to the camp Syaoran and I made. Getting there I found one of my worst nightmares. He was gone and I had no clue if he left on his own or was kidnapped. Looking around I found nothing, no foot prints, no markings, no nothing. Where could he be and what am I going to do?
"What are you doing?" a voice asked as I turned around. It was Syaoran and boy was I happy to see him.
"Where were you?" I asked as I hugged him.
"I heard something, so I went to check it out," he said as I let go in embarrassment.
"Sorry," I said as I looked around to see if anyone was there.
"What did you find out there?" I asked as I sat on the ground.
"I found nothing but a small girl practicing with her sword," he said as he sat on the side of me.
"So that was you I heard, why didn't you answer me?" I asked as I thought about what I said earlier.
"Things can't get anymore worse than what they are, can they?" I said to myself as tears ran down my cheeks.
"So…. What is your family like?" Syaoran asked as I turned to him in amazement. I never thought Syaoran would ask a question about something like that.
"They're the best," I said as I wiped the tears away.
"That's cool," he said as I looked away from him. "What about you?" I asked as I turned back to him.
"They showed me a lot of great stuff, but I haven't seen them in a long time," he said as he got up.
"Hey would you like to practice with me?" I asked as I got up and followed him.
"Sure, I would love to," he said with a smile.
"I must worn you I have all my strength back now," I said with a snicker.
"I am so scared," Syaoran said as we pulled out our swords. "I am not going easy on you, you know that right," he said as I giggled.
"Okay," I said as I swung my sword forward.
"You're good," he said as I blocked one of his strikes.
"Thank you very much," I said as I swung at him and just missed by a few centimeters.
As we fought we would get only a few inches away from each others faces and then we'd just pull away. It was fun fighting Syaoran and it was way better than fighting brother. Syaoran was a lot faster and he wasn't holding back like brother and father dose. Syaoran seemed to have more skill than father and brother dose too. I hope that they are all okay and are doing well.
The next day we started off on our path. The path that would take us to my family, my kingdom, and my home. Home, what a great word to say, and a place I can't wait to see.
