Hope Stronger Than Sorrow
chapter 1
These are going to be very short chapters, for that is how I feel. It'll be nice just to write again, and I know I haven't finished others, but, whatever. Who said you had to do anything you didn't want.
I hope all of you like... this is dedicated to my Kei-anechan, who still remembers me even still after my two month imprisonment.

part 1
Kinomoto Sakura walked into a very distinguished building among the business world, and into that very building worked two of the most successful lawyers to ever appear in the working world. That was the air that Kinomoto Sakura worked under every morning. She smiled with a diplomatic look, and stared blankly at the building before her.
"My life, my love, and my very well damn home."
She stepped through the threshold, and saw the brains of the foundation, the bronze in the strength, and the very damn near founder of the place-hell, she practically was the founder, except for the minor detail of money, or lack thereof-her beloved partner. The only thing she, her partner, was lacking, was spunk, edge, money, and an iron fist of will, which Kinomoto Sakura completed. She brought along the money, and the fame to bring the two aspiring lawyers to the acknowledgement they deserved. Of course, they won many cases, and proved to be worthy of anyone who could pay.
She tucked a stray strand of honey-brown hair behind her ear, and walked through the revolving doors with an athletic grace. People-who worked under her-greeted her with a cheerful smile. She smiled becomingly, and walked swiftly to her upstairs office, an office that showed all of Tokyo. She had one in New York, but under circumstances beyond anyone's control-except those who committed the heinous act-she wasn't there for the time.
Her associate and she also owned businesses all over the world, corporations for fledgling lawyers and firms. They were most respected, and the most hated for their accomplishment. For, they came from a culture where men still thought they were dominant, and had a say so in everything. That's where these young ladies left off-when they finally got tired of every chauvinistic male telling them what to do, and how to look.
Kinomoto Sakura definitely tried to forget that period in her life, where she was young and innocent. Which, she still was, and so was her partner, but they were both more accumulated to the world now, and how people think and ran each and every morning. With each decision they made, the world came closer to a revelation of new age.
A secretary around Kinomoto Sakura's age ran up to her, smiling, her wispy blonde hair getting in her face.
"Kinomoto-san, a call. Daidouji Tomoyo is on your cell, would you like me to transfer her to your office phone?"
"Iie, that's quite all right. I'll take it here, arigato."
The young woman smiled, and handed Kinomoto Sakura the portable phone. After doing so, she walked off, cheerily humming a tune of spring.
"Moshi moshi? Konban, Tomoyo-chan! Of course they can't say anything about me informally calling someone 'chan!' Tomoyo-chan, I am the founder, or one of. I think I'm allowed to express myself more freely than you think. Iie, I haven't heard from anyone. Gomen nasi, I have to go, my associate is calling me for a board meeting. Hai, I promise. We'll have brunch at eleven o'clock tomorrow morning. Ja ne!"
Kinomoto Sakura hung up the phone and walked towards the petite blonde who was smiling warmly at her.
"Was that Tomoyo-chan, Sakura-chan?"
"Hai, Usagi-chan, she wanted to make an engagement with me, so I, of course, had to oblige to my dear friend's whims and wills."
"Hai, hai!! Get ready; sharks of business and control are ready to bite our heads off. Crack a few jokes and send 'em flying, that's our motto!"
"Yesterday it was, 'Throw open a can of 'Whoop Ass' because here we come'."
"Yeah, so, this is today!"
