Hi Everyone!

oOYukixYuriOo here!

This story is my third story. The idea just popped into my head and I didn't want to lose it. Hope you enjoy it!

WARNING: I do not own CCS

Atonement

She came from the heavens,

She fell from the sky,

A lost angel.

Tears stained my fragile skin; I was alone in a corner with no one comfort me, hold me or support me. It isn't supposed to be like this. Why does everyone hate each other? Why do they hate me? Why can't everything be like it's supposed to be? Because everything was my fault.

Eleven years later at the age of sixteen I was going to transfer to a new school after being home schooled for nine years. I was independent, my heart was closed and my feelings were sealed away. I did not dream dreams. I did not try pointless things. I did not believe in things that aren't there.

People would usually misunderstand me, thinking I had a cruel family to make me this way. But it was a complete lie; my family was good warm hearted people. I had understanding parents, and an overprotective but kind older brother. My family was rich so I had good meals and places to sleep. I was very fortunate. Even though I had a past that was unforgivable they still allowed me to stay with them.

I grabbed my flute and my notebook and pencil, I never left without it. Why? Because I'm mute, its not that I can't speak I refuse to speak. Ever since I was six years old I believed I should just keep quiet and melt into the darkness. So it would be like I'm never there, people won't have to bother with me and they can just forget about me.

I had a musical talent and the instruments I mainly played were the flute and piano. I could play any other instrument just as well, but these two were my favorites. I was extremely good in singing but since I'm mute I can't really sing anymore can I? I used music to express my feelings. When I play I feel like I have wings, it is the most wonderful feeling I ever felt. When I felt sad and lonely I played quietly and timidly. When I felt angry I played loudly and roughly. Music was the best way for me to say things.

I left my house and started walking to no where in particular. I started to admire the spring flowers as I pass by, as the wind played with my long auburn hair. I suddenly heard a load creaking sound it made my shoulders jump up in surprise. I covered my ears, it sounded like someone who was playing the violin very, very badly. I tried to ignore it but the musician in me made me head towards it and see if that horrible violist needed help. I entered a seemingly vacant park I turned my head to both sides twice. I walked around the park, it had an amazingly beautiful garden, and I was so completely entranced by its loveliness that I crashed into someone. We both fell on the floor.

"Shit," I heard a masculine voice swear.

I looked up and saw a pair of amber eyes. I got up and dusted myself and picked up my things. The guy I noted, had the messiest hair I have ever seen, he had a muscular body and handsome face. It would be a wonder if his personality was great too.

"That actually hurt." I heard him speak again. He picked up my flute which was lying on the grass and passed it to me. "Here."

I nodded and took it and bowed in appreciation. Behind me I heard a feminine voice. "Syaoran what's going on?"

I turned to see a beautiful female who seemed the same age as me. She had long raven hair and striking ruby eyes. She was holding a violin. She must have been the one who was playing that screeching sound earlier.

"Did you do something again Syaoran?" Another male voice entered behind the girl holding the violin. He had blue hair and knowing eyes, a similar muscular build to the person they called Syaoran and no-rim glasses. He was holding onto the hand of another astonishing girl. She had long ivory black hair and pure white skin and kind looking amethyst eyes.

"No, I just crashed into this girl." Syaoran answered pointing at me.

"Oh, were terribly sorry, "The ivory hair girl rushed over to me. "Syaoran just doesn't know where he's suppose to look sometimes."

I shook my head.

"She probably was wondering what that horrible screeching sound that Meiling made was." Syaoran pulled his hands behind his head.

"I'm not that bad!" The raven haired girl who seemed to be called Meiling said. Her friends looked at her, than she corrected herself. "ok, maybe a bit bad."

"I wouldn't call it a bit bad. You could practically break all the windows in the school when you play for your music test!" Syaoran snorted. "Why do you think we told you to go to the park? We didn't want you to destroy our house!"

"Shut up Syaoran! I just can't do well in music ok? Tomoyo can't help me because she doesn't know how to play! And this is the only instrument I can actually make a sound with!" Meiling screamed.

"If you ask me I think it would be better to get an instrument you can't make a sound with." Syaoran muttered.

"I didn't ask you!" Meiling yelled furious.

"Sorry Meiling, I only know how to play piano and sing," The girl beside me apologized. I think her name is Tomoyo.

"I'm not blaming you Tomoyo so don't worry," Meiling looked at her kindly.

Wow what a complete attitude change, fast too.

"But what am I going to do? The stupid music test is in three days!" She whined. Then she turned her head to me and walked over to me with teary eyes. "Hey do you know how to play violin? Can you play the song 'The Angel of Melodies'? Can you teach me?"

What and odd person, asking someone she barely just met to play a song and teach her violin, what if the person she asked didn't know the song? I do but she still is really odd. I sweat dropped.

"Meiling don't be stupid, your scaring her you know. She's not used to your weird personality. Anyway didn't you see her flute case she's holding? She only plays the flute, she can't help you." Syaoran told her.

Meiling turned to my hand which was holding my flute, she sighed. "Your right." She bent her head in despair.

I felt sorry for her, that and the fact that the music side of me is telling me to help her. I place my stuff on a rock and held out my hand so she can give me the violin.

She looked up, "you're telling me to hand you the violin?"

I nodded.

"Hey! Are you sure you can even play? Just because she asked you doesn't mean you have to pretend." The blue-haired guy yelled.

How rude! Just because I can play flute doesn't mean I can't play other instruments as well. I placed the violin in position and visualized the piece 'The Angels of Melodies' inside my mind. Then I began to play the beautiful and happy piece telling a story about angels. Each note told me part of the story as I listened to it. I noticed some amazed faces staring at me, especially Syaoran. The song soon came to the end and I passed her violin back to her.

"Oh my god you're awesome!" Meiling screamed. "Do you play both flute and violin?"

I nodded my head.

"Wow! Can you please help me on this? I need to pass the music test or I would fail!"

I nodded my head again in reassurance.

"Yeah!" Meiling cheered as she jumped up and down.

"Hey, can't you speak? You haven't said a single word since we met." Syaoran asked.

I turned my head and saw Tomoyo bonk him on the head. "Syaoran, that is very rude! Where are your manners?"

"Isn't she being rude? She isn't saying anything at all, like she thinks she's better than everything!' Syaoran argued.

I gave a soundless sigh as I lifted up my notebook and pencil and wrote that I was mute. I turned my book and showed it to them.

"You're mute?" Syaoran said the words slowly.

I nodded my head.

"Sorry, didn't know" He apologized.

I shook my head, trying to tell him he wasn't at fault.

I wrote down something to ask Meiling if she could try playing for me. While she did I noticed that she wasn't even positioning the violin under her chin properly. Her fingers moved to slow when she changed notes and she presses the bow too hard on the strings! No wonder she sounds horrible I wrote down what she needed to correct. She started playing following my instructions; I adjusted a few things while she was playing until her screeching actually sounded like music.

When we finally finished she could at least play all the notes without squeaking. Her friends were amazed. "Thank you so much, I didn't know how I was going to survive if before you helped me."

I nodded.

"Oh yeah I haven't exactly introduced myself yet have I? My name is Meiling Li, and that grouchy guy over there is my cousin Syaoran Li. The two lovebirds over there are Eriol Hiiragizawa and Tomoyo Daidōji. What's your name?"

I quickly wrote my name when I finished she read it out loud. "Sakura Kinimoto. Well thanks Kinimoto"

I nodded and began walking away my stuff. Interesting bunch of people, that's what it must be like to have friends. It must be nice to have friends not that I'll ever need it. Friendship is something I'll never allow myself to have, because everything I've been doing so far is the atonement for my sins.
