*Prologue: Requiem*
~*~ Flashback ~*~
After quite a while of thought, they then set up a school of magic, to train those young sorcerers to do great things.
~*~ End Flashback ~*~
*Sometime in June 2018*
They ran through the winding tunnels, hoping they weren't too late, Syaoran and his two kids, Aoi and Tsuki (Hahaz. Did you know tt Aoi Tsuki is sometimes used to represent love?).
Tenji had captured Sakura and he was just about to take her power as the Clow Mistress. They ran and ran, and saw her up ahead, floating in midair, held up by her own aura, still somewhat conscious. Tenji and his wife, Chidori (is that her name? I can't remember liaoz) and a small girl and boy, the same age as Aoi and Tsuki, was by the side, waiting for a potion to finish brewing. They started sprinting, but banged into a force-shield. They tried spells, incantations, but none worked. Giving up hope, Syaoran slumped against the fore-shield, tears starting to streak his face.
"Pull yourself together man!" They heard Xi Lang's voice.
They turned and saw the three couples running. Kara gave him a reassuring smile, "Don't worry. It'll turn out alright."
The three sisters pressed their palms against the force-shield and Lara reached out to Sakura inside, "Sakura, choose an heir! Now!"
Blur as always, "Huh?"
"Hayaku!"
"Aoi."
Kara on the other side of the shield reached her hand out to Aoi, nodding gravely. He took it, and she asked, "Staff like your mom, or sword like Syaoran?"
He shuddered at the thought of having to run around with a pink stick and said, almost immediately, "Sword."
The sisters started chanting, as Aoi felt the magic fill him. At the same time, the aura holding Sakura up and the force shield was weakening. As the magic was completely passed over, Sakura dropped to the ground, unconscious. Syaoran tried to run through the shield, but Xi Ling held him back, "The shield is still up. We could only pass over her power as the Card Mistress, but she still has a little magic left, and that is what's still in the shield."
The sisters continued chanting, until a small hole was formed. Xi Ling closed his eyes for a while and the Cards, now blue, came shooting out of the pocket Tomoyo gave Sakura and into Aoi's hand, who drew a single card from the deck, tapped it, said, "Through, come to my aid!"
He ran through the shield towards Tenji, whose face was filled with shocked realisation, and slew him. His wife and kids rushed to him crying, and Aoi rushed to his mother. The sisters, by now, had completely eliminated the shield, and Syaoran ran in to pick her up.
*Meanwhile further down south*
All around, sirens; stares. Why did they have to have such a damn huge minibus? Why not just a normal car like everyone else? Why were she and her brother sitting right at the back in the first place? Why the hell weren't they like their parents? NORMAL? All they were trying to do was go on a normal holiday, during the June school holidays. They had even decided to 'rough it' and go business class instead of first class. But why? Why did they have to be the ones who were crushed by a drunk trainee bus driver? Why? WHY?
"Terrance, you better get over here. I have a strange feeling you'll be needed. It's almost like that accident you handled last year. Mini-bus, teens, freak accident - anyway, just get over here."
"Right." The officer pressed a button on his mobile and started his car.
At the accident site, it was a tall blonde boy answering the questions from both police officers and reporters, while his sister just sat there, staring at the wreck that she was sitting in just less than an hour ago. The reporters had finally got it through their thick heads NOT to ask her anything only after she thrown one with amazing strength at one of the police cars.
Terrance looked over at the girl. There was something familiar about her. But where had he seen her before? Waitaminute. The hair. That shade of red. Could it be?
The officer the boy was talking to noticed his colleague's arrival, "Hey Terrance."
Her head jerked up at the name. She turned her tear-stained face towards him. "Aya?"
*Flashback*
"Yeah, I'm on it."
Another accident. This time, it was a school bus full of secondary school kids and some drunkard going home at six a.m. Apparently, it was one of the kids who had called in to report it.
He got there, and immediately noticed a red-haired girl staring blankly at the wreck while medics loaded the drunkard, her schoolmates and the bus driver into ambulances. Her bag slumped next to her, and strangely enough, like her, was completely unharmed. She was obviously ignoring his colleague's questions.
One of his fellow officers walked over to him, "Hey. It's your turn now. All of us have tried, but she's still quiet."
"So, push everything to the new guy who's just joined the force huh?"
"Well, like it or not, someone's GOT to get the job done, and you're the youngest of us (He went to the police academy immediately after Sec school which means he's now 18. I don't know if they allow pple into the police academy so early, but they do in 15 yrs, k?), closest to her age, thought you might work. Weird, though. There's absolutely nothing wrong with her except exhaustion. And the rest of them suffer near fatal injuries. Apparently, according to witnesses, there was an explosion and she just seemed to be thrown out of it, and landed on her feet. After that, she was the one who pulled everyone out and called us."
Terrance just shrugged and walked up to the girl, "All right there?"
Silence for a while then the shocker, "Terrance right?"
"How-"
"Don't ask. Just don't"
"Okay, I won't. Not about that anyway. I never really was good at intros. So, since we all know about me, why don't we talk about you?" He sat down next to her.
"Aren't you gonna ask me about what happened?"
He grinned sheepishly, running a hand through his hair, "Well, yes but we were told to 'always try the basic procedure', which would be not to ask outright, but to do what I think is beating around the bush and not getting you anywhere."
His tone made her laugh her melodious laugh, "Well, I for one am glad that there's at least ONE decent officer around. Those bastards had just started threatening. Ha. Like I'M gonna be scared of them."
"Mind your language, young lady." He said in a mocking tone, then became serious again, "So, why wouldn't you be scared?"
"The same reason as why I knew your name."
"So don't ask, huh?"
"Yup."
"So can I ask about the accident?"
"Go ahead. What do you wanna know?"
"As much as you can tell me."
"Ok."
She went on to talk and after a while Terrance was told to bring her to school, after her reported to his superiors what she had told him, which, to their surprise, was quite a lot.
At school, things were explained to her teachers and she started her lessons as normal.
*Time skip*
She had given in to one of her friend's, well, not exactly friend, more like a girl she'd met in one of those enrichment classes she enrolled in, pestering and told her the full story, about her powers, everything. A while later, people started either peppering her with questions or avoiding her, giving her weird looks. She was smart enough to know what happened. She grabbed a guy she knew was the girl's classmate by the collar, lifting him off his feet (she's tall, as in 174cm tall, as opposed to his 150++ centimetres) and asked, with a cold threatening edge to her tone, "Where. Is. She?"
He was trembling by then and pointed to the nearest girls' toilet. She dumped him unceremoniously onto the floor and stormed to the toilet. She kicked open the cubicle door, revealing a girl shaking in fear. She stood there, and in a deadly whisper, "You told them. You revealed the secret I entrusted to you. And you will pay."
The tears by now had started flowing and the crowd outside had gathered. She hooked two fingers under the girl's collar and flipped her against the mirrors, which broke, letting her fall headfirst onto the sinks then onto the floor. She stormed out of the toilet, stretching out her palm as she passed her classroom, summoning her stuff to her. She then paused mid- stride, thinking, 'They still know.'
She stretched out her left palm and a scroll materialized above it. She grabbed it and opened it up in the air. She took out her trusty brush and started writing, and as the last character appeared, the words started glowing and there was a bright flash. Then, nobody remembered.
She ran out of the school, her bag in tow, as the tears started flowing. She ran and ran until she got to the bus stop, collapsed on the bench and sobbed into her bag, allowing her long red hair to cascade down her back.
Terrance just happened to be off that day and returning home from his mother's flat in Tanjong Rhu. He then spotted the familiar shade of red and stopped his car at the bus stop. "Aya?"
She looked up at the familiar voice and bolted into his arms, sobbing harder than ever before screaming, "She told, she told!"
This, he knew, was a girl who prized friendship and trust above all else, and listened to the story as he took her home.
*End flashback*
She saw her friend get out of his car and bolted, once again, into his arms and started sobbing like there was no tomorrow.
His colleagues smirked and he glared, "Shut it."
"Yes, oh great one. You know her, huh?"
"Yeah," he looked down at the girl soaking his shirt in tears, "Same one as last year."
"Hmm. You were the only one who could get through to her, weren't you?"
"Yeah."
"Poor girl lost her parents this time."
"She did?" He ran a hand through her silky hair, trying to comfort her.
"Yup. There's her twin brother, over there. The blondie. As far as we know, the only family she has left."
But he wasn't the only family she had left. In their parents' wills, they were instructed to live in Japan with their mother's second cousins, and Terrance was forced to part with the girl he'd grown to regard as a sister.
There, that was nice. Could you make sense out of it? You'll have to read the rest of it to do so. Chappie 1 is coming up soon. I hope. :-P Bye!
