Summary: The sunlight of day is welcomed into the hearts of most people, but in others the humble warmth is shunned. Syaoran Li is engulfed in total darkness when his parents die.

Prologue
The sun continues to share its warmth even as it slowly dips below the vast horizon. It still fights against the night's reign upon the world even though the outcome is clear. Though the sun loses the battle and darkness prevails, it always returns and sends forth light to every dreary corner of life.
Some open their hearts to the warmth while others have ceased accepting its humble offering of peace and joy, silently praying for the cold nights and darkness they've come to expect to return once again.
Everyone has those moments when nothing more than the silence of their homes is wanted. Everyone has those times when the gloomy retreat of a dismal room seems almost inviting. Everyone eventually comes to a point in their life when thoughts of laying in bed with the blinds closed and doors locked for the rest of their life seems like a perfect plan … and everyone has that one person who will draw back the opaque curtains to allow in the healing sun.
Solemn and serious, a young man stood with hands in his coat pockets, a deep scowl on his face. He stared at the tombstones and newly dug mounds of dirt where the caskets had been covered a day before. Two of them – one he cared about more than the other – were both lying six feet under. The funeral was over, but the pain was just beginning.
A/N: I know this is extremely short, but my actual chapters are longer than this. Please Review ... even though you don't have much to review about.
