DM: Hey guys, so in case you're wondering why a two chapter fic has 300 reviews, it's being rewritten right now. I wrote this fic as a 7th grader, and now I'm a second semester senior in high school. When I go to college I'm going to give up fanfics forever, and before I go I want to make sure I'm leaving my best work behind. Thank you to all those that supported the original version of this fic. I hope you will like the changes I'm making.

Disclaimer: I don't own CCS, and I don't own the concept of Atlantis either, but I do own the plot.

Atlantis

Prologue

A girl with auburn hair and green eyes stood in the center of a magic circle, the skirt of her high school uniform whipping about her in the wind. From a little distance away a boy with blue hair, blue eyes, and glasses watched her with a smile on his face accompanied by a winged lion and what looked like an angel.

"Card created by Clow! Change and take on a new form under your new master Sakura!"

Sakura felt the familiar rush of magic as she turned her last Clow card into a Sakura card. Finally, the adventure that had occupied most of her high school life was coming to a close. Eriol ran up to catch her as she staggered a little.

"Sakura, you've done it! You've become the most powerful sorceress on earth!" Eriol said excitedly, helping to put her back on her feet.

"Eriol, thank you so much. I never would have been able to do it if not for you." Sakura threw her arms around his neck and hugged him. He blushed at first, startled, and then returned her hug with equal warmth. Further off, Kerberos, the lion, attempted to convince the angel, Yue, to dance with him. He did not succeed.

"Sakura…" Eriol pushed her away a little so that they were face to face, a searing look of determination in his eyes. When they first met, they were rivals to collect the Clow Cards, but when it was clear that they belonged to Sakura, Eriol had done nothing but help her. They had been each other's only friend for all their three years together. But…

"Sakura, I love you!" Eriol said, closing his eyes, scared to see his expression. He was surprised by something warm and soft coming into contact with his lips.

"I love you too, Eriol," Sakura said sweetly after breaking the kiss.


Sakura laughed aloud as the boat rocked a little, knocking her fiancé clean off his feet. He gave her a sheepish grin from the deck. Then there were five Eriols grinning up at her. To celebrate their engagement, they had taken a boat out on the English Channel. They were living together now in England, five years after the Sakura Cards were all changed and their high school graduation.

Her maid, Tomoyo, a pretty girl with long hair and glasses, looked rather worried. "Miss, it seems that the weather is no longer in our favor."

Tomoyo was very polite, and when she applied for the job as a maid at Hiiragizawa Mansion (Eriol's house), Sakura had been very surprised to find that they were the same age.

Eriol (only one Eriol now) got up and dusted himself off, "Nonsense, Daidouji, it's the perfect weather for a cruise." He giggled.

"My fiancé is right, Tomoyo, nothing could go wrong." Sakura joined his laughter, draining her glass of wine and almost spilling some down her dress in the process.

Tomoyo looked at them both quizzically, "I think you've both had a little too much to drink." With that, Tomoyo took the ¾ empty bottle of wine they had been using and headed down to the galley.

"I thought she'd never leave," Sakura giggled mischievously as she and her drunken fiancé shared a kiss.

"Oh Eriol…" The kiss deepened, and, unnoticed by the two lovers, a few raindrops started to fall.

"Sir and Miss! Come inside this instant!" Tomoyo had come back on deck to find that the storm had broken over them. "Hurry!"

The two seemed to come to their senses as a wave came crashing on the deck, drenching them both completely.

Sakura screamed as she and Eriol started to run for the staircase, but she suddenly slipped and slid down the deck as the boat tilted dangerously. Eriol was the only one who made it. Sakura had taken only a step before another, larger, wave came up and swallowed her, wiping her off the deck.

"SAKURA!" Eriol and Tomoyo watched in horror as the force of the wave propelled Sakura down into the mysterious blackness of the sea.

I'm going to die…

DM: Ok so I think that gives a better basis for the start of the story/the initial relationships of the characters.
