And now we begin:

Turnaround

A Cardcaptor Sakura Fanfiction

It was raining again, just like it had been for the past three days. She didn't know why her family moved to the dreary little town of Tomoeda. Her father said it was "quaint" and the perfect place for raising growing children. She liked her old school much better, and her old friends too. It seemed like nothing was the same in this "quaint" little town, but compared to the city how could it be. She only had one more day alone, before she would have to make new friends. She didn't really want to, but she also didn't want to be a social outcast for the rest of her stay here either. But hey what could you do?

"Sakura, you'll like this place soon enough, I promise," her father was busy still unpacking his things.

"Probably," Sakura wasn't one much for complaining or arguing for that matter. She kept most of her feelings bottled up inside her, something her psychologist told her wasn't good. But that's how it had been since…. But she wouldn't think about it. She promised her self she wouldn't.

"Where is Toya, he needs to bring in the couch from the garage. And unpack his things. Lazy boy. TOYA! TOYA!" her father walked to the foot of the stairs yelling as he went.

"He went to check out the college dad remember. He wanted to know where it was."

"Oh that's right. Do you know where the highschool is?"

"No dad, but I doubt that it will be hard to find in such a small town." Sakura sighed and started walking up the steps to her room.

"Do you need a ride or anything tomorrow?" Her dad asked looking up at her.

"No I planned to roller blade. It's okay I'll take an umbrella."

"Okay hun."

And that was that. Sakura walked to her new room, it was at the end of the brightly colored hallway. She walked in, closed the door, and flopped down onto her new bed. Everything was new in this house. New furniture, new lifestyle, new everything. She looked around at her dull walls. I definitely need to paint these, she thought. She was so exhausted however that she fell asleep immediately, she didn't even have time to change her clothes.

"Hey Sakura, are you still awake?" a voice asked, knocking at the door. When no one answered he just barged in anyway. Seeing his little sister, sleeping finally, Toya covered her with the blanket laying on the floor.

"Sleep well, Sakura."

…………………………….

"SAKURA! WAKE UP!" her father yelled banging on the door to her room.

"Nnnngh," Sakura mumbled from under her covers.

"It's your first day of school, sleepyhead, you have to wake up." Her father opened the door slightly.

"Shoo, go away." Sakura still wasn't ready to get up.

"If you don't wake up now I'll have Toya come in here and do it for you." He threatened.

"Okay, okay, I'm up." Sakura stretched and groaned hating to leave the nice warm bed. She showered and made it to breakfast just as her dad was putting the pancakes on the plate. "I'm not really hungry dad." She was hungry but she didn't think that her nerves could take it.

"You need to eat otherwise you'll get sick." Her dad looked at her.

"Okay but only a small pancake." She gave in.

"That's better." He handed her a plate, and she put the smallest pancake she could find onto it. She scarfed it down, hungrier than she thought. She stood up and wiped her plate. "K' dad I'm off. Wish me luck." Sakura went to the closest and got out her roller blades.

"Luck." Her dad walked to the door, "Don't forget an umbrella it's starting to get dark out again.

"Dad, it's always dark and rainy here." She stood with her roller blades on ready to go.

"I know, but be positive today. It's fun to make new friends." Her dad smiled brightly.

"K' dad. See you later." Sakura went out the door ready for her first day of hell, er high school. She new that everyone would be staring at her and wished that none of the teachers asked her to give a speech in front of the class. Okay, she thought, Now where are the signs for the school? she was going quite fast on the sidewalks searching for the signs. Of course not paying attention she was in the middle of a driveway when a black limo started to pull out.

"Get out of the way, you foolish girl." The black window of the limo was half down.

She blinked and looked at the window. "Um, excuse me, but where is the highschool?" She didn't even notice that all around her were very expensive looking houses, definitely no school around here.

"Go to the end of the sidewalk here and take a left and then a right and keep going. You'll reach it eventually miss." The man driving the limo looked at her and smiled.

"Wai, we don't have time for this. Let's get going." The voice from the back of the limo bit out.

"Yes young sir," Wai smiled apologetically to Sakura and rolled up his window. Sakura turned around and was heading for the first left, when the limo drove by her. She took a fleeting glance at it and the boy, it was a boy, glared at her. His eyes were a hard, dark amber. She flinched.

He doesn't seem happy to be going to school either, she thought. Or maybe he just isn't a friendly guy. She was well past the first left turn and looking for the right, when she spotted two girls walking. Both of them had on the same uniform she did.

They must go to the same school as me, and she hurried to catch up to them. "Um excuse me, but are you guys headed to Tomoeda Highschool?"

A girl with long grayish black hair looked at her with violet eyes, "Yes actually we are. Are you also heading towards there?" The girl asked looking at Sakura's uniform.

"Yes, I just moved here from Tokyo. It's my first day," Sakura looked down and blushed.

"Well you can walk with us, er skate." The girl had glasses and pigtails.

"That would be great thanks. Oh, I'm Sakura Kinomoto by the way." She introduced herself.

"My name is Tomoyo, and this is Naoko." The girl with the long hair said. Naoko smiled lightly at Sakura. I think I could be friends with these two, she thought.

"So Sakura, how come you moved here?" Tomoyo asked breaking Sakura out of her reverie.

"Oh, um my dad transferred jobs, he's going to be the architect professor at the college." There were other reasons, but Sakura couldn't say what they were.

"Oh that's so cool. But I would have loved to live in Tokyo, it's got so many awesome stores." Naoko raved her eyes shining.

"But Naoko why would you want to buy clothes, I can just make them for you." Tomoyo asked looking at her.

"Because Tomoyo, your clothes are always so revealing." Naoko laughed and Sakura smiled.

"They are not." Tomoyo pouted, "Anyway you can sit with us at lunch Sakura, if you want to."

"Oh yea, sure. Thanks." Sakura smiled again, This was easy she thought, surprised.

They walked and Sakura skated until finally, "Welcome to the wonderful Tomoeda Highschool!" Tomoyo said dramatically.

Sakura laughed, it was bigger than she was expecting, but not as big as her old school back in Tokyo.

"Come on, we have to get our lockers and stuff." Naoko said pulling on her and Tomoyo's sleeves.

"Hey Tomoyo. Naoko." A new voice said.

"Oh hey, Rika. Chiharu." Tomoyo answered.

Sakura looked at the two new girls. Rika was petite with shoulder length reddish hair. Chiharu had in braided pigtails. They were both looking at her.

"Oh this is Sakura Kinomoto, she just moved her from Tokyo." Naoko exclaimed.

Rika breathed.

"Yea, it was pretty cool there." Sakura blushed intensely. She didn't really like all of this attention.

"You know Tokyo was once a fairy city. Until it became so polluted…" Chiharu was strangling the guy who was talking.

"That's Yamazaki, you can't believe anything he says." Tomoyo whispered, "He and Chiharu are together."

"Really, I would never have guessed." Sakura raised her eyebrows.

"Oh I know. But she keeps him honest, and he keeps her laughing so everything works out in the end." Tomoyo laughed.

"Hello my dear." A boy with glasses and blue eyes walked up and put his arm around Tomoyo.

"Oh hello, Eriol. How was your week in England?" Naoko asked looking at the boy.

"It was great thanks. But I missed my Tomoyo the entire time I was away." He looked at Tomoyo who blushed a faint red.

"Eriol, stop you're making me blush." Tomoyo said looking away shyly.

"But it is the most wonderful color of red, especially with you pale skin." He kissed her forehead.

"Okay, let's just leave those two alone shall we. They are absolutely crazy about each other." Naoko said pulling Sakura away. "I'm the only one here who doesn't have a boyfriend. Even Rika has one, well actually not technically because he is a teacher, but still at least it's someone."

Sakura thought that it sounded like a very familiar story and a pain shot through her heart. She would not think of it. She would NOT! "How come you don't have a boyfriend Naoko, you're very pretty." Sakura asked quietly.

"Oh, I don't know. None of the boys here really are my type. I like the educated ones, all the boys here care about it sports. Well except for Eriol but he has Tomoyo."

Sakura wondered if Naoko used to have a bit of a crush on Eriol, when she looked at the soccer field. She saw a breathtakingly handsome boy. He had messy brown hair and a tall athletic figure. He was at least a foot taller than she was.

"Who's that," She asked staring foolishly.

"Oh that," Naoko giggled, "That's Syaoran Li. The captain of the Soccer team and teenage heartthrob."

"Does he have a girlfriend?" Sakura asked.

"Not really, he doesn't really pay any attention to them at least. Soccer is his girl. He is obsessed with the game. He is always practicing. Even when it's pouring rain, like last night he was down at the soccer field doing drills and things. I hear that at least half of the senior class girls asked him out and he turned them all down. So that means that he would definitely turn down lower classmen too."

"Really, what grade is he in?"

"He's in our grade."

"What! He's only a junior? I can't believe that. He looks much older." Sakura said surprised.

"Yea, he really is in our grade. I couldn't believe it either when he came two years ago."

"He's a transfer like me?"

"Yep, he moved here two years ago, apparently he and his mom had a huge fallout, so now he lives by him self. Well except for his butler."

Really, she thought, But I doubt that he would ever notice me.

As she was thinking that a pair of amber eyes, quickly flashed over to her and locked onto her own bright emerald green ones.

"Oh, Sakura he's looking over here. Smile or something." Naoko flashed a bright smile and waved alittle.

Syaoran's eyes hardened and he glared right at them. Then he went back to practicing.

"Woah, that was scary." Naoko was hiding behind Sakura.

I've seen those eyes before, that boy. He was the boy in the limo, Sakura looked at Naoko. "Does Syaoran have a lot of money?"

Naoko nodded, "Oh yea, he comes from a very wealthy family. He has his butler drive him to school everyday."

"Oh I s-see." Sakura stammered still looking at the soccer field.

……………..

"Stupid girl, first she delays me this morning and now she thinks she can look at me like we're old friends or something."

Okay that was the first installment of Turnaround. Kinda boring I know, but it has to be done. Wonderful and now I must go for I am late with my semester finals.
