The Thread of Love

Chapitre 1

Syaoran looked around, happily enjoying the many sights the world of Kopan had in store for him. This world had so many mysterious aspects that the country had given up and just lived with whatever the world threw at it. It was a peaceful world, simple, clean, pure, and filled with many kind people. Right now they were housing in a small abandoned building, in the city of Leo. Sakura and Fai were searching for supplies, and Kurogane had been sent off to get a job, which left Syaoran to do what ever he pleased, search for the feather or any information he could receive. He smiled pleasantly as he passed by a few children playing in the street, chasing a flying kite. Something caught his eye though. A hooded person, sitting on the edge of the street.

Being good natured and kind at heart, Syaoran approached the figure and kneeled down to the necessary height. "Excuse me, Are you okay?"

Syaoran blinked and flinched as the person lifted their head to gaze at him. Their features were hidden by the shade, but their eyes glowed with a piercing red light and the aura from the body seemed inhuman. "What do you want?"

"N-nothing!" He answered quickly. "I was just slightly worried-"
"Liar…everyone…a liar…you want it…you want what I have and need..."
"What do you mean?" Asked Syaoran curiously, reaching out to touch them, but recoiled as he felt a strong shock run up his right side of the body. The person seemed to his, and bolted. "Share my pain you evil thing, know how it feels to not know who you are!" It shrieked as it ran away.

Syaoran held his arm gingerly as he watched the person run off and then fly away. He starred, still while wondering what had happened. "What was that all about?"

"I'm Home!"

Sakura beamed, running to the door, hair a mess and face covered with flour and dough. "Syaoran-kun!" She screamed, happily welcoming home her companion. "Welcome back!"

"It's nice to be back…How have you been Hime?" He asked kindly, removing his shoes at the entrance because Fai was mopping the ground thoroughly.

Sakura smiled. "Fine! Fai showed me how to make really delicious bread! I think it's called Turnovers! You can put fruit and jellies in it and it tastes really good!"

Syaoran smiled painfully, half closing his right eye as he winced. "R-really?"

"Yep! And I want you to try it Syaoran-kun!" Said Sakura happily turning around to go check on her bread. "Come on!"

She paused hearing no answer, and later feeling a small thump as if something had just fallen. "Syaoran-Kun?" She asked timidly, turning around again. She gasped at the sight of Syaoran lying on the floor unconscious. "SYAORAN-KUN!"

Syaoran awoke, his head throbbing painfully as he sat up slowly. "H-hime?"

"No, but close." Answered Fai cheerfully, smiling. "So you're awake, are you?"

"Yeah…What happened?"

"I'm not quite sure. You just simply passed out." Fai helped the slightly disoriented teen rise to his feet. "How do you feel?"

"Okay I guess…" Syaoran rubbed his eye repeatedly, heading for the bathroom. "I'm going to go wash my face Fai-san…"

"Why don't you take a bath, it might help you feel better." Fai said kindly, leaving towards the kitchen. "We'll have dinner ready for you by then."

"Thanks Fai-san…" Syaoran shut the door behind him. Sakura glanced worriedly at the closed door, sighing quietly. Fai bent down slightly to whisper into her ear. "I bet if you help make a nice dinner for Syaoran-kun, he'll feel better faster Sakura-chan."

She immediately began helping Fai take out the cooking utensils and laying out the food that needed to be cooked. Suddenly, there was a yell of surprise, startling both Sakura and Fai, whom were busy cooking, and Kurogane who had just walked into the house with some bags. They all dropped whatever they were holding and ran to the place where the yell had originated. Syaoran came out of the bathroom, face slightly wet and pale.

"Syaoran-kun, what happened?!" Sakura spoke all her companions' thoughts, panicking slightly. Syaoran raised a hand slowly to his right side of his face. "M-My eye…"

"What happened to your eye? Is it okay?"

Syaoran slowly lowered his head, smiling a little. "I-I can see out of it again…"

There was an awkward silence as everyone processed this through their minds. Kurogane got up in a huff on how he'd dropped everything because the kid could see again, while Fai automatically beamed in excitement. Sakura, on the other hand, frowned, confusion etched into her eyes.

"But couldn't Syaoran-kun see out of his right eye before?" She began to panic as a sudden thought occurred to her. "D-Did it get hurt while you were trying to get one of my feathers back?"

Fai smiled at her show of compassion and Syaoran began to slowly explain about his eye. "You see Hime, I don't know why, but since I was young, I couldn't see out of my right eye. That's for as long as I've known. But right now, I was in the bathroom, and I looked in the mirror and realized I could see out of my other eye!"

Sakura slowly dawned on his situation and smiled. "So this is good for Syaoran-kun!" She said, obviously pleased with his new found vision. "We should make a dinner for you Syaoran-kun!"

He blinked and raised his hands in protest. "Wait, Hime, no, I couldn't-"

But she had already set off to begin the task. Fai laughed. "Well, at least she sets her mind for you Syaoran-kun." He said airily, slightly amused. Syaoran sighed, letting another smile creep upon his face as he watched his Princess bustle around the kitchen. But Kurogane was not at peace….

Hyuu! What do you think? Suspenseful? Boring? Weird? Cool? Why is Kuro-woofy uneasy about Syaoran-kun's new eye sight? Why CAN Syaoran see out of his eye now? What will happen next? I wanna know too, so please read and review!

Oh, and by the way, Kopan's my made up world. I had to do some create a country project once and I mixed Korea and Japan, thus creating Kopan...But it's still my world. Also, there are other stories i own that take place in Kopan but i won't tell you here. Thanx again!
