The Star of Death
A/N (hehe this is so cool, I'm actually an author now ^_^): Sorry for the corny name, couldn't really think of anything else. You'll see why soon. Anyway, for those S+S lovers out there, just to warn you there aren't THAT many S+S moments in my story. Yes, I love S+S too and they are perfect for each other, but I'm just not good with the romance writing deal. My story takes place when Sakura, Syaoran, Tomoyo, etc. are in 6th grade. It's probably about the time when CLAMP ended CCS.

"You are sure it's coming?" Said deep voice.
"I am. The astrologers have checked and double-checked. No mistakes this time. It's coming. Now. We must prepare." Said a female voice. "The time for Nakron's revenge has arrived. Who shall we send to perform this task?"
"The sisters are too easily distracted. Many of the cousins have weak magic. Or no magic at all, like Meiling. We shall send Syaoran."
"Syaoran? But surely he too young? What if he gets hurt?"
"He is ready. He has trained for many years. He can take care of himself."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Kinomoto Family Residence~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[Dreaming] A bright light is approaching a blue and green ball. It looks like an enormous comet. It's coming closer and closer. The people are scared. Chaos is everywhere. Why is it coming? What will happen to them? Just as it is about to hit the ball.[/Dreaming]
RING! RING! RING! RING! RING!
"HOE?! Huh.Oh."
A girl with emerald green eyes and short brown hair yawns as she wakes up. She places the alarm clock she subconsciously grabbed back on her nightstand. She starts dressing and fixing her hair.
"Kero-chan? I had a weird dream last night. Something really big was coming to Earth." The girl said to her stuffed bear.
Kero answered, "Coming to Earth? That sounds like a prophetic dream. But what could be coming?"
"It looked like a really big, bright ball. It was so bright and it was heading straight for us. I saw people, too. They were terrified. Everyone was running and screaming and yelling." The girl shudders. "It was so horrible. Will something like that really come here?"
"I hope not. But if it does, Sakura, you need to be ready for it. Yue and I will set up some more training drills."
Sakura groans. "Aiyaa! Again? But we practiced for hours yesterday and the day before that. I have other things to do, you know. Like schoolwork and chores. And now that Touya's gone to college I have to do his work, too!"
"Is doing schoolwork and chores going to help you stop a huge, bright ball from striking Earth?"
Sakura doesn't answer and mumbles something about crazy talking stuffed animals.

A tall woman with black hair tied back stares out the window. She says, "It's time, call Syaoran up."
In a chair sits, a man with short, dark brown hair and glasses. He gets up and walks downstairs. Moments later, he reappears with a young boy that looks about Sakura's age.
"Yes, mother? You wished to see me?" Said Syaoran. "Is something wrong?"
"The Star of Death is coming. All the Shield Stones have been found and placed back in their proper shrines. All save for one. The last one has been located and is currently somewhere in Japan. The High Mediums have traced it to a town called Tomoeda. We need someone to go there, find it, and place it in the shrine in Osaka. Would you be willing to do that?" Answered his mother.
"Mother, Father? Will you really trust me with a task like that? With so much at stake, surely you would send a Mage?"
"There are currently no Mages close enough to Tomoeda to retrieve it. Plus, you need the experience. You've studied and trained hard. You can do it. We'll be here if you ever need any help." Was the answer.
"Then I'll do it!" Said Syaoran.
His mother said, "Good. Then it's settled. You will transfer to Tomoeda and attend school there."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Tomoeda Elementary~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~about 1 month later~~
Many students are in the classroom. They're all talking and chattering. Just as the bell rings, Sakura rushes into the classroom, out of breath. She slowly walks over to her seat and starts unpacking her books.
"Congratulations, Sakura-chan! You made it just on time!" Said a girl sitting next to Sakura. She had long, grayish hair with bangs.
As Sakura is about to reply, the teacher comes in. He tells everyone to settle down and calls roll. Then a boy entered the room. It is Syaoran. The teacher (or Terada-sensei if you wish because there isn't gonna be a point where I indirectly reveal his name) tells him to come over to his desk.
"Class, this is Li Syaoran. He is an exchange student from Hong Kong. Li-san, for the time being you may sit beside Kinomoto-san."
Syaoran walked down the aisle to the seat beside Sakura. As he passed her, he felt a strange jolt. He recognized this kind of jolt. This girl is a magician.
A/N: Hehe, sorry about the 'Aiyaa' thing. I just had to throw it in; it's a Chinese people thing. I almost made Syaoran speak Japanese too XD BTW, what's with the whole 'Disclaimer' thing that everybody's got going on? I think most people know that the main characters are not original. That's why we call it 'fanfiction' and not simply 'fiction' Hello? No brainer, people. Besides, do you guys REALLY think that someone would care enough to sue you over something like that? Jeez -_-;;
