A woman with long ebony hair took a long drag of her pipe before removing it from her lips and blowing out the smoke. She wore a flowery rose colored kimono with dark butterflies all over it in mismatched patterns. At her feet were two fluffy creatures that looked like manju-buns; one white with a red jewel on its forehead and the other black with a blue jewel on its forehead. Behind her were two little girls. One with long blue hair wearing a black dress with devil wings at the hip. The other had short pink hair wearing a white dress with angel wings at the hip.

"In this word nothing is a coincidence. All is Hitsuzen. This story is about people who are unconnected to each other but connect to others who lead them all together." She spoke. "I am Yuuko the wish granter. These people; Syaoran-kun, Sakura-chan, Kurogane-san, Fai-san, Watanuki-kun, Doumeki-kun, Touya-kun and Yukito-kun, will all meet full circle by the end of this story to achieve a common goal. Now sit back patiently and read."

"Damn it, my alarm didn't go off so I was almost late for school." Watanuki grumbled as he sped down the street trying to avoid being late for school.

Heaving an annoyed sigh he looked towards the sky and couldn't help but smile at how nice out it was. Several other people his age passed him on their way to school. Most went to different schools he noticed but stopped to look at a girl about 12 years old wearing a pink uniform skirt and white shirt with a pink ribbon-tie looking lost. He guessed she must be new to whatever school she attended based off how confused she looked. He glanced at his watch and bit his lip. See if he could help this girl and be even closer to being for school or go straight to school and forget about her? He weighed the two and sighed. He made his way over and poked her shoulder. She turned around surprised. Watanuki noted her short light brown hair with two strands falling around her face and soft grassy green eyes.

"Ano…are you lost?" he asked.

The girl blushed looked to her feet embarrassed. "Hai, I am. I'm just starting at my new junior and instead of having my brother walk me to school I decided to walk alone before realizing I have no idea where it is." She said softly.

Watanuki smiled at her shyness. "Where do you go? I ca walk you there."

The girl looked up surprised. "Are you sure? I wouldn't want to make you late for your school."

"I'm sure, so where do you go?" he asked.

"Kikumaru middle school." The girl answered.

"That's right on my way, come on I'll show you." Watanuki gestured for the girl to follow.

She smiled and began following him. As they walked she took in the sight of people walking by as well as a few stray cats scampering along the walls. She knew her brother would scold her for not knowing where her own school was so with a smile she decided to keep it a secret.

"I'm sorry I forgot to ask," the girl looked up. "What is your name?" he asked.

"Oh gomen. My name is Kinomoto, Sakura." She answered with a smile.

"Sakura-chan, nice to meet you.. I'm Watanuki, Kimihiro." He introduced.

Sakura smile warmly at him as they continued walking they got closer to a large school that looked to be a high school. She felt a sigh of relief leave her as she saw another school not too far away from the first one. She guessed it was hers. As they passed the front gate of the high school Watanuki was bumped into by a boy with short dark hair wearing the same uniform as him. The glasses wearing boy apologized to the other boy who stared at him. He looked him over as if taking in his appearance before patting Watanuki's back before entering the front gate. Sakura watched as Watanuki growled at the boy's obvious rudeness before ushering him towards the other school. They stopped outside its front gate.

"Well here you go Sakura-chan." Watanuki told her.

"Arigato, Kimihiro-kun. I wouldn't have made it if it wasn't for you." Sakura bowed.

"Have a good day at school." Watanuki told her as he turned to leave.

"You too." Sakura waved before entering the front gate of the school nervously.

Watanuki smiled happy to have been able to help. He made his way over to his won school his mind wandered back to the boy he'd bumped into. He'd apologized to the boy and all the other boy had done was stare at him, pat his back and walk away. How rude! He sighed deeply as he entered the school passing several people after slipping his shoes into his locker. He stopped beside a window when he felt a hand on his shoulder. It was his close friend Kunogi, Himawari.

"Ohayo Watanuki-kun." She greeted.

"Ohayo Himawari-chan." Watanuki smiled.

"You sure pressed your time this morning. I was worried you were going to be late." Himawari commented.

Watanuki shook his head with a smile. "No, I woke up late but helped a girl find her school and made it in record time." He stated proudly.

Himawari giggled at his enthusiasm. The raven haired boy glanced out the window and gasped. Standing down below was the boy who had bumped into him earlier. He was surrounded by a bunch of girls but seemed indifferent to their obvious flirting. The other boy almost looked lonely which seemed to go unknown by his companions. Himawari seemed to catch his stared as she turned to look out the window as well.

"Why are you staring at Doumeki-kun, Watanuki-kun?" she asked.

"Doumeki?" Watanuki questioned keeping his eyes locked on the other boy.

"Hai, that's the school's archery champ; Doumeki, Shizuka-kun." Himawari told him.

Doumeki was looking around the campus ignoring the girls surrounding him chattering happily. They were annoying. Always following him around, attaching themselves to his arm like they were his girlfriends and they never stopped talking. He glanced up at the school and caught a boy wearing glasses staring back at him. It was the same who had bumped into him this morning. Narrowing his eyes slightly he tried to take in the boy's features but was distracted when one of the girls grabbed his hand.

"Doumeki-kun, will you walk me to class?" she asked.

Doumeki stared at her before answering. "No." he yanked his arm from her grip and stalked into the school.

Watanuki watched surprised as Doumeki brushed off the girl clinging to him, coldly. He jumped when he heard a collision behind him. He turned to see his sensei on the ground rubbing his blonde hair while the papers he'd been holding lay around him. It appeared that he'd crashed into another sensei with dark hair.

"Fai-sensei, are you okay?" Himawari asked concerned.

"Hai, I'm fine." Fai smiled.

He looked at the person he'd crashed into. The sensei had short dark hair that spiked in some places and red eyes. Fai sent him an apologetic smile to him and proceeded to gather the fallen papers. He blushed when he reached to grab a paper only to have his pale hand covered by a tan one. Locking eyes with the taller man Fai smiled at him.

"Gomen sensei. I couldn't see where I was going." Fai apologized.

"Just be careful next time." The other sensei barked.

"Kurogane-sensei, are you okay?" a boy asked stepping towards his sensei.

"I'm fine!" Kurogane barked.

Fai stood up with his papers gathered carefully. He smiled at Kurogane who scoffed and cuffed the blonde lightly on the side of the head before turning to stalk off. The blonde couldn't help but watch the other man leave. A grey haired boy walked past him. Quickly recognizing the boy Fai called out to him.

"Tsukishiro-kun!" the boy spun around startled only to stumble backwards.

He was caught easily around the waist by someone. Looking up he locked eyes with a tall boy with dark brown hair. He stared at Yukito surprised but set him upright. The grey haired boy flushed slightly and bowed stumbling out an apology before walking quickly over to Fai. The blonde haired sensei handed part of the papers to Yukito before leading the boy down the hall. Toya watched as the grey haired boy walked off. Something about him seemed so unique. He shrugged it off as he turned to head off to class. The bell tolled loudly signaling everyone to head to class. Watanuki waved goodbye to Himawari before headed to his class. Yukito sighed as he placed the papers on Fai's desk before heading to his seat. Fai smiled fondly as he thought of the dark haired sensei. Touya plopped into his seat as Doumeki walked past and sat by the window. Kurogane growled as he let out a loud sneeze. The day had begun.

******

Sakura sighed happily as she seated herself in a seat by the window. Thankfully she had made it to class in time without getting lost. She bit her lip in thought trying to think of something she could do to thank Watanuki-kun for showing her the way to school. A tap on her shoulder startled her to look up. A boy with short chocolate hair smiled at her and handed a piece of paper that was folded up. She took it and gasped; it was her schedule! She couldn't believe she'd lost it. Jumping up she hugged the boy tightly.

"Arigato, I had no idea I'd lost it." Sakura said happily.

The boy blushed but hugged her back awkwardly. "You're welcome."

Pulling away Sakura held out her hand. "I'm Kinomoto, Sakura."

The boy took her hand with a smile. "I'm Li, Syaoran. It's nice to meet you."
