Hello!
My 2nd story, yay! (Rated T to be safe)
Now, a warning: THIS IS JUST A TEST RUN. Something I just made up, and see how you fellow readers like it.
If it's bad, I'll delete, if it's okay, I'll continue. :)
DISCLAIMER: I do not own ANY of the characters, they all belong to CLAMP (unless I add some OC's later in the chapter. :3) But the plot/story is mine.
PLEASE let me know how you like it !
Enjoy

It's almost too painful to watch.
Everything's falling down.
Ashes are rising in the air.
Parts of my soul are being chopped.
When will this pain ever end?
I can't endure it.
I need to end this.
But I need help.
I peeked from behind a large trunk of a just-bloomed cherry blossom tree, watching the two girls giggle and talk to each other.
My bare feet bury into the damp mud below me and a small sigh escapes from my lips, longing to be there. To have a friend.
They consider me as the weird one.
They, as in, everyone.
The school I go to, it's alright. I don't exactly get along well, or fit in.
But sometimes, that's alright. I don't always mind. I can always make friends somewhere else.
And I have the trees by my side.
After the two girls continued walking along, I scanned my surroundings and glanced down at my uniform. I pull the black, shiny shoes from behind the trunk and slid them on before making my way.
The leaves of the cherry blossom rained over me. Falling gently.
Everything was peaceful, just how it should be.
All the roots were still connected. No harm is being done.
Ah-excuse my manners. I must have forgotten to introduce myself.
I'm Sakura, an ordinary looking human with a big secret.
I don't have a home. I don't have a family. Not a human family. That's how it's always been.
After all, I am a God.
Hence my name, Sakura, I'm a God who watches over the cherry blossom trees. They're more important than anyone thinks.
Their roots connect us all as one. Believe it or not.
It's my job to make sure everything maintains peace.
Being a God, am I immortal? I'm not really sure.
I don't have clear memories of where I came from, or where I grew up.
I just happen to have a skill communicating with the sakura trees. I've been raised by them for so long, I consider them my family now.
But it's not just 'typical' communication; I can feel these trees. Feel their emotions, which is why I need to maintain peace.
But I can't explain any further. Somehow…it just needs to stay a secret. Until I trust someone, someone who I know wouldn't dare hurt my souls.
My trees.
Kicking the tip of my shoe to the ground lightly to make sure they fit well, I made my way towards the school building, wondering what new lessons I would learn about this mysterious world.
It was just another normal day, trees in peace, I'm in peace. It was all good.
That is, until one day changed my entire life.
When a treaty was signed.
When all good was reversed.
And a boy.
A terrible, horribly unforgiving delinquent.
Syaoran Li.
Any comments, ideas? Yes..it was short, I know...but like I said, just a test run.
Should I continue, or delete?
Please let me know!
