The Whisper of a Chained Heart
Chapter 1: The Tainted Rain
It was raining hard today and yet you can't see lightning or hear the raging thunder giving out warning. There was just this creepy silence except for the whistling of the winds and the swaying of the leaves of the trees outside the road. You can still see people running on the streets trying their best to find a shelter and a warm place to stay. I stared coldly outside the window my face void of any emotions. I had always hated the rain it always remind me of that faithful day. That day that had change my life.
I was in deep thought when I didn't noticed my butler calling my attention.
"Master Xiaolang? Master Xiaolong?"
At the moment I heard my name I returned back to reality and faced the worried face of my butler who was sitting in front of the car next to the driver.
"Sorry Wei… I guess I just drifted off." Syaoran replied emotionless eyes staring at the butler with coldness.
Wei sighed and looked at this master with concerned eyes. I can't blame him… the rain always reminds him of that day… poor boy I wish someone could take his pain away.
"Wei? Wei."
"Sorry master just having a deep thought."
"Ah… I see." Syaoran said coldly as his gaze went back again to the window.
"Master.. We are almost there. It would be the best if you get ready."
Syaoran just nodded his head without even looking back.
I guess I'm back to this place again… Syaoran thought as the car was nearing a very huge mansion.
"Welcome back... my Xiaolang" a mysterious looking lady with a long flowing chinese gown greeted the young man who just got out of the car.
"I'm back mother." Syaoran answered back coldy staring at the woman with emotionless eyes. Yeah... I'm definitely back...
The following morning was very sunny and the birds that have been hiding in the branches of the trees are starting to get out, singing their sweet songs to everyone to announce a wonderful day. In a average house not so faraway with a very huge sakura tree beside it. The sun's rays softly radiated to its leaves and into the small window on the second floor to give signal of a very good morning… Yet, the occupant of the room is still in deep slumber.
"Saku-chan! Saku-chan! SAKURAAAAAAAAAA!"
"HoeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEE" Sakura Kinomoto immediately jumped out of the bed her hair sticky out on every place.
"Mou Tomoyo-chan you don't have to yell right into my ear." She continued as she was scratching her eyes removing away her sleepiness.
"Sorry about that Sakura-chan, I've been trying to wake you up for about 10 minutes and you won't even budge." Tomoyo answered while shaking her head. "Touya even advice me to pour you with some cold water if you still wouldn't budge in another 5 minutes."
"Hmph baka-oniichan.." Sakura said as she pouted.
Sakura Kinomoto aged 17 is currently studying in Ouritsu Tomoeda University. At first she was surprised when got a letter saying that she was accepted in a very prestigious school. Ouritsu has a reputation on having most of the elite students in the country. Most of the students in Ouritsu are rich, very intelligent, talented or just plain lucky like her. Sakura was very worried at first on how her family would be able to afford on sending her in a very expensive school but her father reassured her that everything would be alright. She studied hard and luckily got a scholarship that greatly helps her family. She has a long flowing auburn hair that reaches her waist but she usually tie it on a loose bun when she's at school not wanting her hair distracting her. The most magnificent of her features is her green emerald eyes that shows that even on her teenage years her eyes is still radiating with innocence but sadly she hides her beautiful eyes behind her glasses. Tomoyo always calls her the perfect epitome of innocence. Tomoyo Daidouji however is the daughter of a rich businesswoman and like Sakura she is also studying in Ouritsu. She has been the best friend of Sakura since they were young like her mother to Sakura's mom. They were inseparable ever since. Tomoyo has a very long black hair and crystal amethyst eyes.
(A/N: Their uniform is almost the same as the elementary ones in the series but instead of a necktie it is a red ribbon instead ;.. As for the boys its is like Touya's high school uniform but instead of blue it is black... oks back to the story.)
"So kaiju decided to wake up after all" Touya smirked at his sister as Sakura and Tomoyo went down the stairs.
"Oni-chan! Sakura is not a monster!" As Sakura fumed.
"Touya be nice to your sister. (Touya: Hmph! as touya went back to his cooking)" Fujitaka said as he folded gently the newspaper that he was reading. He smiled gently at the two girls who was just about to sit down on their respective chairs. "So Tomoyo-san do you have a good sleep?"
"Oh yes Mr. Kinomoto I really love having sleepovers in your house because I would be able to stay with my Saku-chan" Tomoyo said with stars on her eyes while pinching the cheeks of Sakura.
"Hoeeee"
Fujitaka just chuckled at the two.
"I guess you have to hurry up... you're going to be late."
"Haii!" said the two girls and continued eating their breakfast.
After a few minutes Sakura and Tomoyo rushed there way towards there school. They were nearly late and were glad that they had arrived on time. Sakura and Tomoyo prepared themselves for their Art Class which is located on the west wing of the school. There canvases in set up near the balcony overseeing the crowd below and the entrance of the school. Sakura sat down near the balcony and adjusted herself to find a good view... It was silent and peaceful until...
"OMG! He's Here! He's Back!"
"Prince Li has returned!"
"I hope he noticed me this time!"
A black limousine slowly entered the gates of the school and the moment the car came into a halt the shroud of girls immediately surrounded the vehicle. A tall young man with chestnut hair emerges from the car as his bodyguards tried to stop the crowd from squeezing him. The young man stared at the crowd with cold eyes and called his butler.
"Wei. I told you not here in school" Syaoran said quietly his bangs covering his eyes.
"But Master Xiaolang... Your mother strictly ordered me to strengthen your security." Wei answered nervously.
"Just let them stay at the gates. Don't let them get near me understood?" Syaoran said coldly not even looking at his servant
"Yes, Master Xiaolang." Wei said as he bowed.
"Good." And with that Syaoran walk away silently through the crowd and went in inside the building.
On the other hand Sakura and Tomoyo were looking at the scene from the balcony together with their other friends Rika, Chiharu and Naoko. Sakura was the only one not interested in the whole scene in fact she find it irritating.
"So the ice prince has returned." Naoko said while her hand is clasped on her chin
"Yea… I heard his taking up film and directing." Rika said
"Oh so that's why the media department has been renovated." Chiharu continued on.
"Yeah girls might attack him anytime" As Tomoyo chuckled.
"Why is everyone interested with that prince? It's really irritating actually... breaking the peaceful morning with shrouds of girls screaming their head off." Sakura said as she continued painting not even bothering to look at the scene.
"I think you guys should already start your work you know it's due today..." Sakura continued on.
The other girls just shook their heads and went back to their respective canvases. Sakura took a glimpse at the scene and saw the retreating back of the ice prince.
So he is definitely back... and I won't get another peaceful day because of him. Sakura sighed and continued on with her work
The day has passed and Sakura and her friends are still in their art class. They were already packing their things ready to go home.
"Sakura dear can you get a basin of water so we can rinse the paint off the table?" Rika asked softly.
"Ok" Sakura smiled sweetly, took off her apron and immediately went out of the classroom.
Sakura was having difficulty on holding the basin as it is filled with heavy water.
Oh why oh why does the bathroom have to be very far from our classroom... what did I get myself into... Sakura was quietly mumbling to herself when she didn't notice a cracked floor on her way. Sakura was shocked and tripped as the basin flew out of her hands and she watched in horror as the basin landed on an unfortunate person. She could not see the person's face because her glasses also flew out of her face when she had tripped. She watched as the person picked her glasses up and removed the basin from his head and slowly went to were she was. The stranger gave her glasses back while she was still sitting on the floor. As she wore her glasses, she felt being petrified on the spot.
Oh no... Her emerald eyes grew big out of fear.
It was none other than Prince Syaoran Li drenched with water, his cold blazing amber eyes looking down at her emerald ones.
