Hihi! My very first fanfic! Actually, I tried before, but I think I
accidentally deleted it. Poor me. Oh well. It's not that sad since I
thought it really sucked. So this is kind of like my second fanfic. This
story is based on the Fushigi Yuugi song, Everlasting Story, by Akemi
Satou. (Yeah, I really don't know why I chose a Fushigi Yuugi song and
doing a Card Captor Sakura ficcy.)

Everlasting Story
Chapter 1. The Legend
"See you tomorrow Sakura!"
"Yeah, you too. Ja ne!
Sakura waved bye to her best friend, Tomoyo Daidoujiu. Sakura was a 17-year- old girl in high school. Her favourite subject was P.E. and her least favourite was math. She had just stepped out of a tiring day of school. Tomoyo had to leave early today, to see her sick mom. Sakura would've gone with her to see her, but she had a call from her father telling her to hurry home from school today.
'I wonder what it is.' Sakura thought.
Curious, she hurried home at a fast pace.
Sakura walked in her house, slamming her bag on the kitchen table. She spotted Touya, her older brother, eating a large plate of cake.
"Where's dad?" Sakura asked. Touya looked up.
"And a hello to you, too." He answered. "In the basement, kaijuu."
Sakura steamed with anger. 'This has got to wear off some day' she thought. But today, she let it off, and stomped off to the study room.
"Konnichiwa!" Sakura exclaimed kissing her dad on the cheek.
"Hello, Sakura," Mr. Kinomoto answered.
"So, what do I have to see you for?"
"Well," he said walking over to one of his bookshelves. "I wonder if you know what this is."
Sakura walked over and peered at a thick green book with a dragon and crystal on it.
"Whoa." Sakura murmured under her breath. There was something very weird and mysterious about it that made Sakura shiver. She touched the cover and was suddenly surrounded by green light. Then, there was an explosion and she shot back and landed on her bottom, as if an invisible force was pushing her. As soon as she was about 1 metre away, the book turned to normal. Dazed she stood up. Trying to keep her balance, she walked over to her father.
"I'm going to go get something to eat now," she said and walked out of the room, forgetting everything that just happened.
Fujitaka meanwhile noticed everything that happened and frowned.
"Eriol, you can come out now," he said.
Eriol Hiiragazawa appeared from the shadows of the other bookshelves and smiled. "She is magical, yet she is not The One."
A boy is standing on a hill, alone. It is all dark and only the boy and the hill are clear. The darkness seems to dim and little houses are visible along the horizon. The boy with his eyes closed, looks up. There's a strange green glow around him and suddenly something explodes. In the sky, the stars come out, the houses turn their lights on and the street below is busy again. The stars seem to get closer and closer, and even more blinding. All the lights are blinding. Another explosion. Blinding light.
Sakura woke up with a start. 'What was that?' she thought. Cold sweat was running down her forehead. She looked around her familiar bedroom and with a heavy sigh closed her eyes again.
With her eyes closed, she started to remember every detail that happened in her strange dream. There was something about that boy that made Sakura shiver. He seemed familiar, yet a total stranger!
'They're not anything like my normal dreams,' she thought. 'What does it mean?'
She tried to get back to sleep but couldn't. Giving up, she looked over at her clock. 6:30. She usually woke up at 7:30 but was supposed to wake up at 7:00.
'Oh well' she thought. 'I'll go make a surprise breakfast for dad and Touya.'
That's when she finally remembered the book. 'What was that book?' she thought. 'Does it have anything to do with my dream?'
"I'll ask dad about it at breakfast," she said aloud to herself.
"Morning!" Sakura called cheerfully to her dad as Fujitaka walked into the kitchen.
"Ohayo," he answered surprised. "Getting up early now, Sakura?"
Sakura shook her head. "I just thought I'd cook something for the family."
Fujitaka nodded. "Thank you," he said as she put his plate down in front of him.
Sakura put Touya's plate down on the table and took hers to sit beside her dad. "Dad, what was that green book in the basement yesterday?" Fujitaka looked startled at the question and was about to reply when Touya came bursting into the room
"What's this? My very own bakemono up at 8:00?" he exclaimed, smirking as he sat down and started to eat. "So what's the special occasion, my kaijuu?"
Sakura's face turned red with anger. "Oni-chan!" she practically yelled. Touya stifled a laugh as he poured himself a mug of coffee.
"Sakura?"
"Yeah, dad."
"Come home right after school again, please."
"Hai."
After school, Sakura began the walk home. Along the way, she spotted a boy with amber eyes and chestnut hair staring strangely at her. She shivered and tried to pretend she didn't see him.
'Wait a minute,' she thought. 'He looks just like.'
"Sakura-chan!"
Sakura jumped and let out a little yelp. She quickly turned around and saw her friends. Tomoyo, Rika, Chiharu, and Naoko.
"H-hello," Sakura said.
Sakura's friends all started talking excitedly about some soap opera they all saw last night. Sakura quickly turned her gaze back to the boy, but he wasn't there. 'Strange.' she thought, but decided to ignore it.
"I'm home!" Sakura yelled.
"Quiet down, Onee-chan."
Sakura sighed with relief. "Sure thing, chibi kaijuu."
Touya looked up with a glint of surprise in his eyes, which quickly turned to playful anger. He put his book down and started towards Sakura who giggled and squealed as she ran to her dad who was waiting by the basement door.
"Dad! Help me get her!" Touya shouted trying to reach for Sakura who was hiding behind Mr. Kinomoto.
Fujitaka sighed. 'I'm getting too old for this' he thought but then smiled. He grabbed Sakura and lifted her up. Sakura screamed and giggled as he tickled her.
"Go, dad!" Touya cheered and joined in, in the tickling.
Sakura screamed and giggled more.
"Ok, ok! I give up!" she said in between laughter.
Fujitaka and Touya laughed while Sakura rubbed her sore jaw from laughing too much. (Ok, I know that little fight was very strange)
After a while, Touya went back to reading and Fujitaka asked Sakura to come into the basement again.
"Sakura." Fujitaka began.
"Matte."
Sakura shrieked. Coming from the shadows was a boy with blue hair, piercing blue eyes and wearing a black shirt and black jeans. (Really, he's a kid ya know and I thought a cloak would be too much for the personality of Eriol in this fic.)
"W-what are you doing here?" Sakura asked.
"It's alright Sakura." Fujitaka said. "He. he's a friend."
Eriol walked over and to the green book that was sitting on a table in a glass cube for protection and lifted it up. "You see, Sakura. It's time to realize that you have magic," he said. Sakura gasped.
Eriol continued. "And, you were destined to capture the Clow cards."
Sakura looked at him as if he were crazy. "Clow cards???!!!"
Eriol glared at her. "Don't interrupt!"
Sakura not knowing what to do nodded.
"But, something went wrong in the past. The Clow cards were not set free. Instead of the normal Clow book, there is this book instead." He patted the glass cube containing the book. "Something is very wrong and it is up to you to figure it out." (Yeah, yeah I know that's gay)
"Me?! I don't even know anything about the Cow cards or Clown cards or whatever!" Sakura exclaimed.
"First of all, it's Clow cards. Second, that doesn't matter. You have magic, you can sense it," Eriol said.
"But, don't you have magic too?" Sakura asked. "And, what's my dad have to do with it?"
Everybody's attention turned towards Fujitaka who was watching the conversation with interest.
"What?"
Then, everybody started yelling.
"You can't make me-" "You have to-" "What??!!!!"
"Hey!" boomed a voice. It was Touya who was coming down the stairs to see what the commotion was. "What's going on in here?"
Fujitaka quickly shoved Eriol back into the shadows of the bookshelves.
"N-nothing, Oni-chan," said Sakura putting on a big fake smile. "Why don't you go back upstairs and. cook dinner?"
"But, it's dad's turn, and what's all the commotion about??" Touya replied angrily.
Then, the phone rang.
"I'll get it!" Sakura called quickly, climbing up the stairs. A moment later, Sakura shouted, "Touya! It's Yukito!"
The boy is standing on the hill again. This time there is a thick red book lying on the ground near him. He slowly walks closer and lifts it up. He is instantly surrounded by red light and is shot back. He looks at it confused and sticks his arm out at the direction of the book. He glows green and the book is lifted slightly but then is surrounded by red light again and blasts the boy further away from it. The boy looks dazed by the attack and slowly looks at the sky and closes his eyes. He's surrounded by green light and there's an explosion. Suddenly everything is clear. The houses, the stars, the busy street. The light is blinding.
Sakura opened here eyes and sat up. 'Argh! Not that stupid dream again!' she thought as her cold sweat ran down the side of her head. 'I'll have to tell Eriol about it.' She lay her head back down on her pillow and glanced at the clock. 6:45. Sakura noticed that the dreams were getting longer.
'Ugh, I have cheerleading practice today,' Sakura remembered getting out of bed. She was the captain of the cheerleading squad and couldn't afford to miss a practice. She didn't dislike cheerleading, but she just wished it could be later.
"I'm back!" Sakura called.
There didn't seem to be anyone home. She walked into the kitchen and fixed herself a snack. Just then, Eriol walked into the room.
"Hey, Sakura," he said.
"Hey, Eriol," she replied. "Do you want something to eat?"
Eriol nodded.
As Sakura made Eriol's snack he talked about himself.
"I'm Eriol Hiiragazawa. Your dad and I are friends. I don't go to school so I stay home and practice my magic. I don't have any parents. I live in a mansion in England with my guardians Nakuru, and Spinel," he said.
Sakura placed his plate in front of him. "How did you and my dad become friends?" she asked.
"I sensed strong magic coming from here and your dad was very understanding of my situation. As if we had a special bond."
"So how am I supposed to figure whatever out?"
"There's a legend saying, that one day, the books will mysteriously disappear in each other's places, the stars will rain down on the earth, and disaster will come. Only The One can fix everything, so you're to journey to see him."
"So, am I going by myself?" Sakura asked.
"Iie, you're going with Syaoran Li."
As Eriol said that, the door opened. There, was a boy about Sakura's age with chestnut hair and amber eyes, wearing an oversized green t-shirt and baggy blue jeans. He was carrying a bulging bag on his shoulder.
"This is Syaoran Li. Syaoran this is Sakura Kinomoto," Eriol introduced.
"Hi!" Sakura exclaimed.
Syaoran mumbled something in reply, dumped the bag down and was about to go to the basement, when Sakura said, "Do you want anything to eat?"
Syaoran stopped at that and turned around. "Sure," he said.
Sakura stood up again and made a snack for Syaoran. "So, where are you all coming from?" Sakura asked as she placed the plate in front of him.
"Akihabara," Eriol replied. (Teehee! From Digi Charat! Couldn't think of anything else!)
"Where's that?"
"It's another world where The One lives. I want to go back home myself," Syaoran replied for Eriol.
"Syaoran, we came here for a reason you know." Eriol said.
"I don't see what the point of coming for- what do you call her - the "Mistress of Clow". I can do it myself!" Syaoran replied stubbornly.
Eriol sighed. "Whatever. You'll have to go with her anyways. We're already on Earth."
Syaoran glared at Sakura.
"Hehe." Sakura laughed uneasily.
So that's my first chapter! I hope you like it and please review! Personally, I don't think it's that good. Well, we'll just wait and see!
