"A Friend is a Friend"

Chapter 1: Japan, the Country of Lost Memories

-Kinomoto Residence-

"Wake up! Wake up!" said the creature as he tries to wake up the girl in an auburn hair, sleeping soundly in the bed...

"Oh man, wake up now! You'll be late!"

"Kero-chan... Spare me a 10 seconds, ok? I'm still sleepy" said the girl...

"Wake up now, Sakura! You'll be late for school" Without noticing, the door in her room opened.. Sakura then noticed that she was being carried..

"What are you doing, Kero-chan?" Sakura said who did not bother to open her eyes... Then suddenly, she was landed in the tub with cold water...

"HOEEEEE!" shouted Sakura as she aroused from the tub breathing ragedly and holding her chest...

"WHAT WAS THAT FOR! ONII-CHAN?" " YOU NEARLY MAKE ME DROWN!"

"Sakura, still a KAIJUU!" Touya said as he leaned on the bathroom door..

"Sakura is NOT A KAIJUU!" Sakura kicked his leg and pushes him out of the bathroom. The door banged in front of Touya..

Sakura take a bath hastily... She then wears her uniform and get her bag then goes downstairs.. In the Dining Room, Sakura's Dad is cooking while Touya is reading a newspaper and Cerberus were eating his breakfast..

"Ohayo, Sakura" Fujitaka said and smiles..

"Ohayo Otou-san, Onii-chan and Kero" Sakura said and bows..

"Morning, Squirt!" Touya said and drink his cofee..

Sakura only eat a piece of her pancake and drink her milk straight.. "Goodbye, Minasan... I'll be late!" Sakura said and left the house..

-Tomeada Streets-

On the streets, Sakura in her rollerblades, cheerfully cross the streets and Tomoyo came.

"Ohayo, Sakura!" Tomoyo said and hug her tightly..

"Ohayo, Tomoyo-chan" hugging back.. "How are you?" she asked..

"I'm fine, Sakura.. Sakura seems cheerful today!" Tomoyo said.. "Well, are you ready for the foundation day this afternoon?" she added.

"Foundation, huh! Oh! I almost forgot about it!" she gasped and starts to daydream many booths with lots of stuffs and fun. Tomoyo sweatdrops and then drags Sakura.

"Anyway, let's go, we'll be late"
"Hai!"

Meanwhile...

-China-

In the middle of the very influential country of China lies Hong Kong where the Most Popular Clan in the World is, the Li Clan. They owns the Li Coorporation in HongKong and also in England under the Hiiragizawa's wings. They had a very eleagant and beautiful 3-storey white mansion. The mansion is enveloped with a very wide grassland and at the back of it was a garden with full of different flowers. The inside of the mansion is full of antique things and eleagant designs. And also there was an indoor doujou in the second floor. There we heard a sound of gasping and breathing, probably someone in a messy chestnut color hair and a pair of flamimg amber eyes was praticing some swords and mastering it. Then a woman came in.

"Xiao-Lang"

"Yes, Mom?" he stops and looks at his mother.

"Oh, you will be going to Japan tommorrow" she siad smiling.

"Japan, huh?" Xiao-Lang now sits on the floor. Yelan's smile fade.

"I think it's time for you to fulfill your promise to her, Xiao-Lang." Yelan said. Xiao-Lang sighed. -"Sakura?"-

"I don't think if she still remembers me." he frowns.

"Think positive, erzi (son)"

"You'll finish your college there, Ok, Xiao-Lang?" Xiao-Lang nodded

"Prepare for your flights tommorrow and for the party." Yelan Li said as she notice how his son react... He kinda gets irritated.

"Not again, I'm tired of these 'party' thing, Mom" Xiao-Lang frowns and sighs..

"You can't stop them. You are the future Leader of the Li Clan" Yelan said, "Oh, and also MeiLing and Eriol will accompany you there" she added and left Xiao-Lang alone in the doujou with his butler, Wei. Shaoran stands and goes to the shower room. He take a shower there while thinking about Sakura.

-"It's been 7 years since I left her"- he thought.

-"I don't think she still remembers me"- Shaoran sighed as he recalled the moment that he said goodbye to Sakura.

-Japan, Tomeada University-

"Ohayo, everyone!" Sakura said when she enters her classroom and bows.

"Ohayo, Sakura!" some of the boys said. Sakura is very popular in the university not because of her long auburn hair that was always neatly combed, her pair of very hypnotizing peridot eyes and beautiful face but because she is very kind and friendly to everyone and excels the gym class, she is also a fast-runner. Boys are drooling over her but Sakura ignored them excepts Xue Ming, a chinese boy that Sakura befriends. Boys envies him because they thought that he was very lucky to be paid attention by a very beautiful girl. While girls also envies Sakura for she had all what it takes to be the woman of any guys dreams but Sakura sure has negative, she still carry a pain inside her heart for the past 7 years. Sakura goes to her seat and sit on it.. And thinks about the boy she use to know when she was 10 years old.

"Ohayo, everyone!" their teacher named Kenshin Takamura said and enters the room.

"Ohayo, Takamura-sensei!" the students said with a smile on their faces. They bows and was signaled to sit down so they sat.

"I thought everyone is getting ready for the Special Event this afternoon" Takamura said smiling at them, he then notices Sakura who was in deep thought looking at the window.

-"I don't want to remember it..."- Sakura screamed in her mind

"Miss Kinomoto?" Takamura-sensei said, Sakura's classmates look at her.

-"I don't wanna!.."- she thought.

"MISS KINOMOTO! Are you in Class? MISS KINOMOTO!" Takamura yelled.

Sakura came back to reality when she heard her name. She saw Takamura and all of her classmates looking at her.

"Yes, Sensei?" she asks.

"I hate it when you didn't pay attention on my class, you were also one of our Best Students here, Miss Kinomoto." he said and sighs. "What's interesting in the sky anyway?"

"Gomen Nasai for my actions, sensei.. I just got carried away" Sakura said and bows.

"Okay, sit down." commanded Takamura, she sits on her seat and look at her teacher.

"Well, are you ready for the event this afternoon?" he asked

"Hai, sensei!" the students answered.

Meanwhile..

-Japan International Airport-

A boy in an auburn hair and amber eyes get off from a plane with a girl in a long black hair tied in two buns and ruby eyes. They were followed by a boy in a dark blue hair and sapphire eyes. The girl look around...

"We are back, Xiao-Lang!" the girl said as she dance around with starry eyes.

"Calm down, MeiLing." The boy in dark blue hair said and adjusts his glasses.

"But Eriol! Japan is the country of our Lost Memories of childhood! MeiLing exclaimed thinking of it.

"Japan, Country of Lost Memories, huh?" he said with his hand on his chin.

"You know, Sakura and Tomoyo!" MeiLing said as she recalled the faces of her long-lost bestfriends.

"Sakura, huh? Shaoran?" Eriol said and looks at Shaoran.

"It's been 7 years since the last time I set foot here." Shaoran said.

"Let's go see, Sakura and Tomoyo!" MeiLing said as she pulled Shaoran's hand.

"Sakura?" Shaoran said.
