Hi everyone! What is this... my fourth fic for CCS? I think. well anyways many ideas were striking my head. I was working really hard on another one... but I don't have a title for it or a good summary... blah!
Then I was thinking really hard... and this fic just popped out of no where. And the words just flowed out of me... (In my math class of course... where I got a 121 out of 125 WAII!!)
So here is the summary:
In a world of dreams, two lovers live. But the world changes and they're separated. They must overcome the world's obstacles to change things back and be together once again. But will they be able to?
And if you want more in depth: In a world of magic and dreams, two individuals live. Before they realize their love for each other, the world was devastated and fallen under a cruel sorcerer. It was part of an old prophecy that was believed to be false. Now they must overcome the obstacles he throws at them to reunite. With the help of their friends, and the aid of acquaintances, will they be able to conquer and live?
I like the second in depth summary. But it seemed too long. I don't even know if there is going to be an evil sorcerer! --;;;
Well I better stop rambling! Here, the famous author of Friends Forever... Right? gives you:

Chapter One
The Beautiful Beginning
It was beautiful.
The light blue sky surrounded us with the sun shining brightly. This was the world of Gaea. Sorcerers and Sorceresses were trained their skills in magic and sorcery and those without magic were trained in martial arts and how to be spared from several magical spells.
It was a peaceful world where I was born.
My name?
It isn't necessary to know right now. All that is necessary is to know that I am a sorceress. I was a rare one since they said I contained so much power. Who are they? My doctors when they delivered me. We have very advanced technology.
I had the best life anyone could ask for. I had a pesty older brother and a caring and loving father. My kind and beautiful mother passed on a while back from a rare disease.
As you now might've guessed, I am Sakura Kinomoto. You've heard about me, ne? I'm glad.
You must also know my friends: Tomoyo-chan, Meiling-chan, Eriol-kun, and Ryu-kun. I know you do.
I shall take you back a little before it all began.
Don't get upset at the end. If I had a chance to avoid what had happened, I wouldn't.
I'd do it again and again.
Why?
Because, my friends, who would want to give away true love?
-
- 2 years ago... -
The wind blew all around a young girl, ruffling her auburn hair. Her eyes were closed, her mind trying to concentrate. A staff, pink with a star, was in her grasp.
"Watery!" She called as a ring of water appeared and swirled around her. Her staff was shaking but she remained to keep it still.
Then she slowly pointed her staff forward and opened her eyes. Those emerald orbs were trained on an object in front of her.
"Fiery!"
A burst of fire escaped from her staff and onto the object her eyes were trained on. Then she waved her left hand and the water surrounded it. When she was about to point forward...
"Kajiuu!!!"
Sakura lost her concentration and the water shot to the ground instead of the object. She bit her lip, her eyes watering. Then her expression changed into fury.
"ONII-CHAN!! You ruined my practice!!!" Sakura bellowed.
Touya chuckled and extended his hand over the fire.
"Aqua."
Water released from Touya's palm and put out the fire. Sakura's eye twitched.
"Onii-chan you're so mean! You knew I was practicing to show Mizuki-sensei that I could finally call two elements at once!" She lectured.
A figure then formed behind her. Kaho smiled as she stood up from the spot she was hiding.
"You're progressing well Sakura-san demo you need more concentration on your magic. I called Touya-san to see if you could handle his remarks and your magic. It seems you couldn't but I'm sure you'll learn. All great sorceresses and sorcerers, magicians and wizards handle it so I want you to work on that. Okay?"
Sakura nodded as Kaho patted her head and walked away.
'It was a test and I failed.' Sakura thought sulkily. She sighed as she sat down onto a large boulder by her side.
Gaea was a beautiful world with magical gardens, jungles, waterfalls, rivers, oceans, and more. There were a few big cities even though there are a lot of technological advances. The schools that were famous for their students were Xiao Garden for sorcerers, Kirei Garden for sorceresses and Trinity Garden for coed students of martial arts.
There were many other 'garden' schools but those weren't as prestige as the three listed above. It was difficult to enter and you had to prove that you want to succeed in magical studies or martial arts. They were very difficult and many of the greatest came from there.
One known man created these schools and others followed. This man was known all over the planet of Gaea. He was the one and only Clow Reed.
As you may know, Sakura was in Kirei Garden. Kirei Garden let the sorceresses have small classes so their professor can monitor each one of them closely. Xiao Garden as well. Trinity made their students partner up and practice every single day.
Sakura was 17 and was a fully developed young sorceress, almost tapping into the magical powers her doctors said she had.
"Cheer up kaijuu. You'll get it the next time." Touya said as he walked away. He graduated early from Xiao Garden, having achieved his highest level. Touya was a strong example for Sakura, even though her professor knew she had stronger powers.
Sakura stood up, her long auburn hair swaying in the wind. Her emerald eyes filled with sorrow.
"Sakura-chan!!" A voice called.
Sakura looked up and smiled a bit. Her best friend, Tomoyo Daidouji, came running towards Sakura's private garden. Her amethyst eyes shining brightly as her locks of violet hair swirled behind her.
"Ohayo Tomoyo-chan." The young sorceress called as her best friend approached her.
"How did it go?" She asked curiously.
The young girl sighed and shook her head. "Mizuki-sensei tested me on my concentration and I failed. It's just that she chose my Onii-chan to be my distraction!"
Tomoyo patted her back. "It'll be okay Sakura-chan."
Sakura nodded numbly. "I suppose."
"But guess what Sakura-chan! There's going to be a dance in our school!" Tomoyo exclaimed with stars in her eyes.
"Honto ne?" She asked dully.
"Hai! And they're going to announce finally who are the three highest sorcerers and sorceresses! And-"
As Tomoyo continued chattering continuously, Sakura picked up a crush flower and held it in her hands. Closing her eyes, she whispered an incantation. There was a faint glow that emitted from her closed hands.
"-Which means Xiao and Trinity Gardens will be there! I hope Eriol-kun is there! ... Sakura-chan, are you listening?"
Sakura set the flower into the garden again, fully repaired and rooted to the earth. "Hai Tomoyo."
Tomoyo shook her head and lifted her friend from the boulder she was sitting on.
"For being so gloomy, we're going to see Meiling-chan. Come on."
Sakura could only let herself be dragged along.
-
"Try harder!"
Two figures separated, breathing heavily. Then they pounced at each other with kicks, punches, and kneed each other. One of those figures had long raven colored hair tied into a pony tail. The other had short jet black hair, stuck to his head because of the sweat.
The figures moved with ease as they attacked each other. Finally one figure fell and the other pinned the fallen one down.
"I win again."
Both figures got up, one grunting in anger, the other giggling. This continued before the doorbell rang.
"I'll get it!" The figure who giggled said. The figure first grabbed damp towels, tossing one to the other and then wiping herself with it. She then opened the door and smiled.
"Tomoyo-chan! Sakura-chan! What brings you here?" The figure asked in obvious surprise.
"Sakura's a bit down. So you're practicing again Meiling-chan? You'll win that martial arts award for sure." Tomoyo boasted.
The figure giggled, as she tightened her ponytail. As you may have guessed, that figure was no other than Meiling Rae.
"I didn't know you had a boyfriend Meiling-chan." Tomoyo chided as she saw a young guy wipe himself with the damp towel and ruffle his hair.
"Oh no, he's not my... I'd like you to meet my sparring partner Kim Ryu." Meiling said. "He might be a little bit grumpy since I just beat him again." She finished, whispering.
Both girls giggled as the figure who had grunted earlier got up and approached them. He bowed respectfully and smiled a bit to the two girls. Tomoyo and Sakura were surprised to see that he had cerulean blue eyes that were quite piercing. Many found those to be quiet rare just as Meiling's ruby red eyes.
"Ohayo Kim-san, I'm Daidouji Tomoyo and this is my best friend Kinomoto Sakura. She and I attend Kirei Garden." Tomoyo said as she and Sakura bowed back.
"You can call him Ryu-san." Meiling said, cutting Ryu off. "He goes to Trinity and Xiao Gardens." She said smiling.
"How is it you go to both schools?" Sakura asked curiously, forgetting about her distress.
Meiling was about to answer before Ryu cover her mouth with his hand. "Meiling has a bad habit of answering all my questions." He said, sending a mock glare to Meiling who just sheepishly smiled. Sakura and Tomoyo giggled.
"I train in Xiao school half a day and Trinity the other half. Several guys in my school do that as well. We like to be experts in both magic and martial arts." Ryu explained.
"That's a great idea. Do you think I'll be able to?" Sakura questioned.
"Of course but it'll be a bit hard now since its three quarters into the term. They won't put you into the basics and beginning. They'll put you straight into the courses we're in now." Ryu warned.
"Sakura-chan will be able to take on anything." Tomoyo stated.
Sakura herself didn't even know but she did want to learn. She couldn't always rely on magic, which Ryu had said.
"You up to it Sakura-chan?" Meiling asked.
"Hai. I'll go tomorrow." Sakura said firmly.
Ryu sighed and shook his head. "Well let us just prepare you a bit now. Just so your partner won't kill you thinking you're up to speed with him."
"That's a great idea! I'll film!" Tomoyo said as she magically took out her camera.
Everyone else sweat dropped.
"Ready Sakura-chan?" Meiling asked.
"Hai!"
-
-The Next Day-
"Good luck Sakura-chan." Tomoyo whispered as Sakura entered Trinity Garden. Sakura gulped as she entered the huge school. It was quite different from her school and it was designed all dark red and orange. Her school was light blue and silver. Even the room designs were different.
"Ohayo. You must be the new transfer student from Kirei. We're so glad that one girl from Kirei finally decided to participate. Many are afraid to break nails." The receptionist said giggling.
Sakura gave a forced smile. She was really nervous.
"Here you go Kinomoto Sakura. Your room is 143. It's a two hour class. Enjoy your stay at Trinity."
Before Sakura could say another word, the receptionist left towards another room. Sakura paled. She now had to find the training room.
She saw many students training hard in the other rooms. 'Hoee...' She thought.
"Sakura-san! I can't believe you're really doing this!"
Sakura turned to see Ryu walking up.
"I guess I'll give it a shot, ne? Meiling-chan said I was pretty good." She said.
Ryu shrugged. "You are pretty good but it's still pretty hard. Anyway, what room are you in? I can tell you're lost." He stated.
"143 and you're right. I don't know where that is." She said timidly.
"You must have good luck. You're in the same room Meiling and I am in. We better hurry. Just follow me."
Sakura nodded and followed Ryu up the stairs and down two corridors before arriving to their destination. They entered the room to see people paired up already.
"Kim-san, you're early." The young teacher mocked.
Ryu chuckled and sweat dropped as he went next to Meiling. Meiling waved a bit to Sakura.
"You must be the new student Kinomoto Sakura. I'm surprised a Kirei Garden student actually wanted to join." The teacher began to explain. "As you can see, my class has partners. Each pair has to consist of one boy and one girl."
Sakura nodded, sweating a bit feeling everyone's eyes on her.
"You're in luck. Li-san, come forward."
There was a small growl before a tall guy stepped forward. His amber eyes and messy chestnut hair made many girls sigh.
"This is Li Syaoran. He used to train with me or alone since there were no more girl students. You shall spar with him from now on."
Sakura gulped as she felt the intense glare from her new 'partner'. She had prayed to Kami-sama that her partner would be nice so that he could've taught her what they were up to now.
But she got him. And she knew he wouldn't go slowly for her at all.
"By the way Kinomoto-san, I am the professor. Everyone calls me Terada- sensei and I suggest you do the same."
"Hai."
He turned his attention away from Sakura as she stood next to Syaoran. She bit her lip since she continued to feel his glare on her.
"Class, half hour of practice and then I'll show you all new techniques. Li, go a bit easy on her. Start!"
"Hai!" All the students said.
Sakura faced Syaoran and bowed.
"O-Ohayo..." She managed to stutter. "Be quiet and begin." He snarled coldly.
'Hoee...' She thought before dodging his fist.
Meiling and Ryu watched from afar, attacking one another.
"Sakura-chan's luck to get Li. I'd rather have her with perverted Chu-san since she's so naïve."
Ryu shook his head as he flipped away from her.
"Li's better than Chu. He'll make her catch up in no time."
Meiling punched Ryu in his stomach and pinned him on the floor.
"I don't want Sakura-chan hurt so he better watch it. Oh... I win."
Ryu grunted as Terada approached them.
"Very good Rae-san. Kim-san, you have such an outstanding partner. You better work harder." He said before observing the others.
"Hai." Ryu muttered as he got up. He sent a small glare at Meiling.
"Can't you just once let me win?" Ryu pleaded quietly.
"Ha! Only when you deserve it Ryu-chan." She said giggling as he blushed from her saying '-chan.'
Sakura panted as she tried to keep up with Syaoran's attacks. Syaoran, on the other hand, was getting frustrated because he didn't land a punch or kick yet.
'Hoee... I'm getting tired.' Sakura thought as she flipped back from Syaoran.
Both now were breathing heavily. Syaoran continued to glare at Sakura.
"Very good you two! Kinomoto-san, I'm surprised to say the least. No one here can dodge all the attacks from Li-san. I'm particularly glad you came." Terada commented.
Sakura blushed about the compliment while Syaoran scoffed.
"I was just going easy on her like you said." Syaoran pointed out. "If you want me to push her to where we are, no problem." He finished.
Terada smiled. "Jealous, ne? I'm quite sure you were giving it all you got." He whispered.
Syaoran sent a death glare his way. Terada just smiled and clapped his hands together. Everyone stopped at once.
"Okay class, now for the lesson."
-
"Mou Tomoyo! He just kept glaring at me!" Sakura exclaimed as her friend tended to her knee.
Tomoyo giggled. "So to lighten things up, you decided to fall outside and scrape your knee."
Sakura glared playfully at Tomoyo and hit her lightly.
"I didn't see the hole. Plus Ryu and Meiling kept bickering about training me to show Li that I'm better than him...even though I'm not... that I didn't get to see the hole OR caution sign in the first place." Sakura implored.
Tomoyo laughed.
"Oh Sakura..."
"It's not funny!" Sakura stated pouting.
Tomoyo giggled a bit more and finished bandaging Sakura's knee. She stood up and smiled at Sakura.
"I'm sure things will get better Sakura-chan. How are his looks?" Tomoyo asked slyly.
"He has breathtaking amber eyes and his chestnut hair is always a mess but he looks kawaii with that style anyway. He's really tall and has a great form. The only thing that's bad about him is his personality. He's so mean!"
Tomoyo started laugh and Sakura gave her an inquiring look. Tomoyo continued to laugh hysterically that Sakura had to hit her lightly on her side for her to begin to stop.
"You so have a crush on him!" Tomoyo managed to blurt out before starting to laugh again. Sakura gave her an enraged look.
"I do not have a crush on him!" She growled.
Tomoyo stopped laughing. "Yes you do! You love everything about him but his personality!"
Sakura shook her head erratically. "Iie! Plus a guy's personality is the most important thing to Me." Tomoyo gave Sakura a look but she ignored it and continued. "Anyways..." Sakura began as she saw Eriol sneaking up behind Tomoyo, telling her to be quiet. "It's not I'm in love with him like you to Eriol."
Eriol froze and his mouth dropped. Tomoyo blushed pink. "Be quiet. I'm not in love with him... I just have a small crush on him."
Sakura giggled. "Sure... that's why you wish that he would take you to the dance. And that's why you think he's so handsome, ne?"
Tomoyo turned a tomato red. "Quiet Sakura!"
Eriol managed to shut his mouth but his eyes were still as wide as saucers. He managed to proceed to move forward till he was behind Tomoyo and an inch away.
Tomoyo put her hands to her cheeks, trying to calm her blush. "It doesn't matter anyway. He'll never know I have feelings for him and he doesn't like me in that way. So it's hopeless and Onegai don't bring it up again." Tomoyo stated sadly.
Eriol shook his head and covered her eyes with his hands. Tomoyo gasped, partly in fear wondering who was listening in to their conversation.
"Guess who?" Eriol whispered huskily into her ear. Tomoyo gulped.
Sakura giggled lightly and walked away from those two. She knew they had things to talk about now.
-
Syaoran grunted angrily. He was enraged that the Kinomoto girl managed to block all his attacks.
No one has ever done it before, what makes her so special?
And to make matters worse, she was just introduced into the class! And a girl! And his sensei noticed it too!
Syaoran let out a frustrated cry as he punched the tree. He heard a startled gasp and he opened his eyes to see the cause of his frustration, Sakura Kinomoto herself.
"You." He growled.
Sakura gulped and sweat-dropped. "Hoe?"
Syaoran moved forward while Sakura moved backward before her back was against the tree. His glare was fierce and Sakura's face was pale with fear.
"How dare you show up and think you can handle me?" He spat angrily.
Sakura looked fearfully into Syaoran's amber eyes. But it was a mistake too late to remedy. She got lost into them and her skin became its normal color again.
Syaoran on the other hand was getting even angrier that she had a neutral if not slightly happy face instead of being scared.
"Watch it Kinomoto. Watch it." He snarled as he walked away, a bit ticked that he adored her emerald eyes.
Sakura blinked and noticed Syaoran storming off. She looked around and noticed that she was busy looking at his eyes to hear what he was saying. A deep blush formed onto her cheeks.
"Oi! Li-kun!" She yelled before chasing after him.
Syaoran stopped and turned. There goes for leaving a scary impression on her. She had the nerve to call him!
"What?" He questioned irritated.
"I didn't mean to do anything." Sakura began timidly. "I'm sorry if I did anything to offend you. Onegai forgive me? I really want to be your friend so you can help me train."
Syaoran looked at her wearily.
"You're crazy. I'll never be your friend. But I will train you. Because you, Kinomoto, need to catch up badly."
Sakura smiled a bit and nodded. "Arigato Li-kun. Demo... when?"
Syaoran sighed and rolled his eyes. The coldness in his eyes was still evident. "After school, every weekday." He stated firmly. Giving her one last look, he turned away and walked off.
"Hoe... every day after school?" Sakura whispered as Syaoran disappeared from her view.
-
"NANI?"
Sakura and Ryu winced when Meiling yelled. Why did she yell? Oh yes, Sakura just told her that she was going to train with Syaoran every day after school instead of training with Ryu and herself.
Tomoyo, on the other hand, had stars in her eyes. She was going to get back at Sakura for leaving her with Eriol earlier... even though it led Eriol to ask her out to the dance and as his girlfriend. She blushed a bit recalling the kiss they shared.
They were all seated in the garden of Meiling. A soft breeze blew softly but it didn't calm Meiling down a bit. She was angry... well she was furious!
"I think it's for the best. You know Li is the best Meiling-chan."
Meiling glared angrily at Ryu. Ryu smiled a bit and looked away, fearing Meiling's wrath.
"Monday to Friday- why him Sakura-chan?"
Sakura was sitting by Tomoyo, petting Meiling's dog Ying Hua. She smiled and stood up. "It'll be okay Meiling. I'm sure Li-kun will get me to catch up in no time." Sakura said brightly.
"Kero-chan won't like this." Tomoyo said in a sing song voice remembering that he forbade Sakura to train with any guy, especially the gaki that rejected him, Li.
"Kami-sama... don't tell him!" Sakura pleaded.
Ryu chuckled and snapped his fingers. Ying Hua came running to him. "A guardian mentor for magicians. I denied having one also."
Sakura sighed, shaking her head. "I love Kero-chan very much but he dislikes all boys."
Tomoyo giggled. "Because all of the guys rejected him." She said, trying to hold down her laughter.
Suddenly a yellow fuzz ball whirled in the middle of the group. Ryu gave a confused look while Meiling, Tomoyo, and Sakura sweat dropped.
"SAKURA!!" He growled, obviously angry.
Ryu stood up and poked Kero several times.
"A talking stuffed animal. Cool! And it knows your name Sakura-san!"
Kero began to shake his fist, angrier. Sakura waved her hands trying to tell Ryu not to say that but it was too late.
"BLAZE!!" Kero roared just as a funnel of fire formed. Ryu's eyes went wide open and he hid behind Meiling.
"Kero-chan!" Sakura implored.
Kero sighed and the fire disappeared. "That baka called me a stuffed animal! Just like that gaki Li!"
Ryu peeked over Meiling's shoulder. "Don't tell me that's the guardian mentor." Ryu whispered into Meiling's ear. Meiling giggled and nodded.
Kero's ear twitched and he glared ruthlessly at Ryu and Meiling.
"Watch what you say boy!" He growled as a golden symbol of a star formed under him. Kero's wings grew immensely and covered his little body and wrapped it up as though he were in a cocoon. Then a huge lion with wings appeared. Ryu gaped at him.
"Cool!" He exclaimed coming out from behind Meiling. Kero growled.
"The other form is my hidden form baka." Kero spat as he turned to Sakura. "You! I told you NOT to train with any boys. And I said ESPECIALLY not the GAKI!"
Sakura winced. "But he's my partner. I think it's only fair. It's not my fault."
Kero scoffed. "I heard that YOU asked him to train you after school!"
Sakura's face paled. "How... how did you know?" She squeaked. Kero shook his head and turned away.
"News travels fast around Gaea, Sakura. I thought you already knew that. We'll have this discussion later." He stated as he flew off, transforming back to his hidden form.
"Hai." Sakura said exasperated. 'Hoe...'
Meiling giggled and stood up. "I think Kero will take my argument over. Tell me how it goes Sakura-chan. Just to point out that Kero has a point about Li." She said before hitting Ryu on the head.
"Snap out of it. All guardian's have hidden forms." She said. Ryu rubbed his head. "Well I didn't know that. It's so cool. If I knew they would do that I would've asked for one."
Meiling sweat-dropped. Tomoyo giggled, her camera focused on them.
"Well I have to go talk to Kero. I'll see you all later."
"Ja Sakura-san." Ryu said, waving a bit.
Tomoyo stood up and made her camera disappear. "I'll walk with you Sakura- chan. I have to be on my way anyways."
Meiling pouted but then smiled. "I'll see you two later! Ryu, let's go train!" She said smiling evilly.
Ryu sighed. "Here we go again."

FFP Notes: Well here it is! Chapter 1 of Fantasy. How did you guys like it? Was it a good start? I don't really know. -sigh-
I tried really hard to maintain a clear focus so it won't be similar to most of those fics out there now. I mean people must be thinking terribly hard (or just rewriting a fic they read) to come up with these things.
There are trillions of story where Sakura is an angel and Syaoran is the devil's worker or vice versa.
I'm getting off the point here. I hope you all enjoyed it. Today is JUNE 18th! YEAH! That means it's my second year as a fanfiction author. I'm so proud.
So review please!!
IMPORTANT: Add me to your author alerts to find out when the next chapter is!
Love you all!
