Haunted Innocents
Chapter One - Wolf Terrace
"Nadeshiko Kinomoto what a pleasant surprise."
A man in his late thirties leaned back in his chair as a beautiful young woman entered his room. Carefully removing his blonde locks from in front of his deep blue eyes the man gestured for the woman to take a seat.
"Now Nadeshiko what may I ask is it that was ever so urgent that you had to speak with me now?" His voice held a hint of curiosity and humor. Nadeshiko never had been so bold as to insist. It was her sweet personality that had her thinking of the other person first. But not this time, she had demanded it. It intrigued and scared him.
Taking a deep breath the woman began talking to the man, her naturally pale face twisted with sorrow, fear and love."Keiji, its about my daughter..."
3 years later...
BEEP, BEEPEver so slowly, like a predator sneaking up on its pray, a small hand reached out from beneath the cream colored covers. The hand patted around the cool oak nightstand searching for its unsuspecting victim. Slowly it picked itself up hovering over the object, which had jolted it out of its slumber, and... SMACKSatisfied that the annoying sound no longer echoed through the room, the hand proceeded back into the warm covers trying once again to recede back into a sweet sleep. A content sigh was heard from underneath the silky cream that flowed like milk over the figure that lied beneath.
BEEP, BEEP
"ARGGGGG, OKAY I'M UP!!!!"
A young girl flung from the bed flustered at the rude and unpleasant noise that insisted on interrupting her peace. Looking down at the red numbers that were displayed on the much-hated digital clock she saw nothing but a blur of red. Letting out a loud yawn the girl stretched out her arms before she rubbed her eyelids and slowly opened them again to reveal the beautiful emeralds that suddenly became very wide."AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I'M GOING TO BE SOOO LATE!!!!!!"
Hurrying around the room the young girl turned into a large blob throwing on her school uniform and then grabbed a hair band and brush to put up her now tangled honey brown locks before hopping out of her room as she attempted to pull her shoes on. Racing down the stairs the emerald eyes laid themselves on a tall figure sitting at the main table reading the current newspaper." UNCLE!!!!!! WHY DIDN'T YOU WAKE ME UP?!?!?!?!"
At the sudden outburst, the man looked up from the article he was reading at his frantic niece only to reveal dark brown eyes that held an annoyed look that had spread to the rest of his facial features, which weren't to kind looking from the beginning. Bushy eyebrows scrunch up in anger emphasis his piercing eyes. His chiseled cheeks were exceptionally tight from the frown that stretched across his thin lips. She honestly never understood what her aunt saw in him.
"Sakura I believe you are old enough to be quite capable to wake yourself up for school which by the way." The man put down his paper and glanced at the watch on his right wrist, "you only have 5 minutes to get to."
"AHHHHH!!!!!!!"
Sakura rushed out the house heading towards her high school forget her silent curses aimed towards her uncle, and instead hoping that a miracle would bless her and that she would make. Unfortunately her school was more than 10 minutes away.
'I'm almost there! I'm almost there! I'm..."
Sakura came to a screeching halt, sliding just enough to topple into the man in front of her. Giving a short cry she waited for the impact of the cement and her face to meet in an unkind get to together; however it never came. Instead her body rammed into another, before she felt her self roll. Confused about what had just happened Sakura continued to lie in place trying to grasp all of the factors, until a chuckle interrupted it and then was shortly followed by a polite voice.
"Ahem Excuse me miss, but umm would you kindly remove yourself from on top of me."
Sakura's innocent and confused emerald eyes looked up into a kind yet uneasy face. The cerulean blue almost pleaded with her before she understood the unusual position they were in. Shrieking she scrambled off the poor man before offering her hand to help him up. Accepting Sakura pulled him up the best she could. Bowing and apologizing profusely to the blue haired man. Sakura didn't acknowledge the two other men behind her.
"Now, now lady no need to apologize to old Hiiragizawa, I'm sure he was enjoying every moment of it."
This comment both surprised Sakura and made her blush deep red. Turning around she saw a tall man who she guessed had spoken by the wide grin on his face. His blonde hair danced around just like his hazels eyes were, making him very appealing. But something caught her eye in a slight distance. Sakura's eyes stared straight in front of her. There leaning on a black motorcycle was a captivating man. She couldn't take her eyes off of him with his chocolate tresses that swayed wildly in the slight breeze and his well-toned body was covered with a white t-shirt and a long black trench coat. Sakura suddenly gasped as she felt his own eyes lock with her own though she could not make them out since they were covered with black sunglasses. Hearing the deep chuckles that were coming from her side and behind her Sakura blush deeply from the fact she had gotten caught staring and turned around breaking the contact.
"Oh poor Hiiragizawa lost another to the great Li." The blonde laughed giving the man she had run into a brotherly shove. The man returned it with a heavy glare that only made the blonde laugh harder. A sonorous voice and icy voice broke the friendly bicker.
"You two stop. Kenome you very well know that Eriol has a girl that has him thoroughly whipped, and little girl don't you need to be running along. It is a little late to be getting to school"
Sakura's emerald eyes swiftly changed to a dark forest green blazing with anger. If there was one thing she hated it was being called a little girl. It was something the stupid old hags at banquets did. Before she blew up on the man that she had been admiring just moments before the last part of what he said sunk in.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
And she was off again.
Cautiously Sakura slid her classroom door open trying to be as quite as she possibly could; however, the door did not share her thoughts as it creaked open. To her it seemed loud enough to draw the entire school's attention and continued to echo through her ears, though she didn't know if it was the sound or the guilt and embarrassment. Still trying to get away with the least noise, gathering by the obliviousness of the class that the door wasn't as loud as she thought, she tiptoed into the classroom. Her eyes laid themselves on the teacher, who looked in her late fifties and dressed like it too, and noticed she had her backed turned and was writing something on the white board. 'Maybe she doesn't know I'm here, I can sneak over to my seat and...'
"Miss Kinomoto, late again I see. When will you ever learn to be on time?"
'Or not' Sakura blushed muttered an apology and scurried to her seat wondering if her teacher had three eyes, considering the teachers back still faced the class. Giving a sigh the teacher continued on with what she had been writing before the intrusion. "I hope that all of you have studied for the math exam tomorrow. I know winter break is coming up in two weeks but that doesn't mean that you get to slack off. As I have said before if you will be absent anytime during the following..."
Silently laying her head down on her arm Sakura drowned out the teacher before drifting off into a deep sleep.
An orange pig with purple polka dots flew around the teal clouds before landing and started to talk. "Miss Kinomoto will you please answer problem # 3 from last nights homework."
Confused at how much the pig sounded like her math teacher Sakura shrugged it off and continued to chomp away at her Ozzy Pop, while playing with the two headed hot pink flying monkeys.
Unaware of the fact that it had been her teacher's voice the honey brown haired girl continued to sleep.
"Miss Kinomoto!"
A girl with red hair braided in two one on each side of her face, leaned over and poked her friend in the back while whispering low enough so that the teacher would not hear her."Sakura wake up!!"
"Huh what?!"
Sakura jolted from her seat finally waking up. Noticing the teacher's angry face she winced knowing she had been caught sleeping... again."Well how nice of you to finally join us Kinomoto. Now will you be kind enough to answer question 3 from the homework."
"H...Hai."
"Muuy, Mrs. Tsudari really doesn't like me. She always picks on me"
"Well Sakura maybe its because you always are late to her class and then you fall asleep."
"Well it's not my fault Chiharu I just don't like Math!!! Oh by the way thank you sooo much Naoko for waking me up again and remind me never to eat three Ozzy Pops before bed. But for now its LUNCH!!!!"
Sakura's friend all laughed at her excitement as they walked over towards the table outside that they always sat at. Envious and longing eyes were turned looking at them but they were used to it now. They were the most popular girls in the school. Always the same words were used to describe them Hot, Innocent and Hot. So it is only really two but guys don't care. Of course all the guys tried to pursue Sakura for three reasons 1) She was the most innocent and naïve of them all 2) All the others were already taken or highly protected and 3) She was filthy rich.Everyone knew that Sakura was left with more than enough money to buy out all of Japan. Of course only few find the way she acquired the money sad. Those few mainly were her friends.
"Hey isn't that Li-Chan over there?" Chiharu pointed to the girl who had been labeled dirty slut and a bad ass.
"Yeah it is I wonder what she is doing its only lunch and it looks like she is leaving. That is so like her. Yah she is probably going to some prostituted club or going to sleep with some guy." Rika said bitterly at the thought of Li-Chan and the rest of the group nodded excluding Sakura who was distracted.
In the distance she saw him. 'That's the guy who I met earlier, the one who called me little' Sakura's face scowled as she looked at the chestnut haired man. Even though she wanted to be mad at him for it something inside wouldn't let her, completely. Noticing Li Meiling get on the motorcycle he was leaning against made an unknown feeling over come her before she finally returned her attention to the group.
" So Sakura do you want to come with us to a club that Rika's boyfriend found called Wolf Terrace."
"WHAT?! A CLUB!!!"
Several students turned toward the sudden out burst to see what was wrong."Sakura not so loud! Geez! Have you not been listening to our entire conversation?!"
Sakura blushed lightly remembering how her focus was on that man before responding, "Sorry but a... a club, we're only 16, we can't get into a club." Sakura hissed at Chiharu.
Rika chimed in at that point. "Don't worry about that Ray said that he would get us some fake I.Ds to get past the bouncer. Man you really weren't listening."
"I don't know you guys I agree with Sakura it sounds a little risky I mean what if we get caught?"
"Oh come on Naoko there is no way we can get caught"
"Alright I guess I'll go. How about you Sakura?"
"Well. I guess I'll try to get out of the house before uncle comes back from the pub."
"Alright. Ray will pick you up at around 6."
"But what do I wear?"
"Don't worry about that I'll bring some clothes by for you to wear, so you're in?"
"Yeah"
Ding, Dong
"COMING!!!" Sakura yelled. She had been relived to find that her uncle was, as planned, at the bar up the street.
Rushing to the door Sakura flung it open and was greeted by Chiharu, Rika and Naoko."Ray is waiting in the car. I figured it would be faster just to all change at one house. So let's go"
All four girls bustled up stairs and into Sakura's over sized room. Chiharu opened her duffle bag and started to give everyone the clothes she had brought for all the girls."AHH I AM NOT WEARING THIS!!!!"
"Oh come on Sakura it will look fine."
"B...But the skirt barley covers my butt. And the shirt well, let's not go in to the shirt. Please Chiharu give me something else."
"Sakura newsflash we are going to a club not a daily outing."
"O...okay fine but I want it to be known this is not by choice."
After a few minutes all the girls were ready and started to walk down the stairs. Rika was wearing a red halter that had a tie up back and came an inch above her tight red shorts that barely covered anything. Her legs were completely bare except from the middle of her calves down which were covered with boots the same color red as the shirt and shorts. Wearing a similar outfit just in blue was Naoko who had on a tube-top instead of a halter and the same shorts and boots. Chiharu had on a white see through over shirt that tied in between her breasts and showing off her studded belly button. The sleeves flowed down her arms to her elbows and underneath the shirt she had a black bra. Her legs were covered with tight black pants that had a large belt that dipped from the top of her right side to below her left hip. The three girls got to the bottom of the stairs and turned to see Sakura still at the top."Sakura hurry up come on."
"I... I don't think I can go out like this."
"Ohh stop being such a baby!"
Sighing in defeat Sakura made her way down the stairs and towards the door where the girls were waiting. Sakura was dressed in a black tube-top that tied up the middle leaving the shirt fairly open with lace up it and ended two inches above her waist. Her skirt ended barely two inches down her thigh showing off her beautiful legs down until the knee were her black boots ended."SUGOI!!! Spin Sakura you look so cool!!"
Blushing Sakura just shook her head and gestured toward the door."We need to go."
"Id's please."
The group all pulled out their fake Ids flashed them at the bouncer before he showed them in. Excited from the slight adrenaline rush of the possibility of getting caught the teens made their way down the stairway towards the blaring music. Finally getting down into the crowd they pushed themselves over to a table and sat down.
"This is great Rika!"
Rika smiled at her friends then beamed proudly up towards her boyfriend. Wrapping her arm around into his she gave it a squeeze then turned back to her friends."Thank Ray he found it."
Was her reply before Ray pulled her into a rather heated kiss. All smiling the rest of the group (Chiharu, Naoko and Sakura) made their way to the overly packed dance floor giving their friends some privacy. Not noticing a group watching them
Off in one of the darker corners stood two figures. They talked quietly enough so that any passer buyers didn't hear them.
"Is everything ready?"
"Almost, the last few are on their way as we speak."
"Good, good. Make sure they are here before they leave."
"Yes sir. Just one question sir, why them? I know why we are going after the others, that is quite obvious but they seem like innocent..."
"We are not going after them all just the one. It was boss' orders don't question them."
"Yes sir, sorry sir."
With that one of the men walked off and disappeared into the crowd. The man left in the darkness gave a menacing smile before himself getting lost in the people.
"Hahaha Li-Chan will you stop hassling your cousin so that we can get this meeting going."
"Fine Keiji-kun but if he makes another remark like that I'll personally have his head."
"Alright you can get in line."
"I DON'T WANT TO WAIT I PLEADED FOR HIS ASS A LONG TIME AGO!!!!"
The older man chuckled at his niece and nephew's behavior toward each other. They always seemed more like brother and sister then cousins. Keiji slipped into a slight daze as he remembered exactly why. His face quickly faded from the humors smile into a very serious frown. Finally he turned to the rest of the people gathered in the private room."We have a few issues that must be approached. Our shipments have been coming in smoothly, almost too smoothly. Li-kun and I believe that the Serpents are planning something. We need to stay on guard at all times. Even tonight. Li-kun"
A tall man stepped slightly out of the shadow he had been in. His head donned his wild chocolate hair. The amber eyes held an emotionless stare that as he spoke would turn into a deadly glare. Many of the people back slightly away from the man incase something enraged him and he wanted to take it out on someone."I agree with you Keiji, something is going to happen soon I can feel it."
Three female bodies moved together on the dance floor. Flowing to the sound that was blaring throughout the building. Sakura slowed down and turned to Chiharu who was grinding into her left hip.
"Hey I am going to go get something to drink. Either of you want something."
Naoko spun around quickly and asked Sakura to grab her a coke. Chiharu nodded agreeing to have the same thing. Pushing throw the crazy people Sakura finally emerged and took in a deep breathe as if she had not had air in a long time. Walking over to the bar Sakura asked for two cokes and water. Sakura paid and started to make her way away from the bar, when she stopped abruptly when an arm snaked its way across her shoulders. A sweaty face with a grin that showed off rooted and missing teeth came down toward her ear and let out a horrible hiss."Hey baby why don't you come with me. I'll save you from the mess that's about to go down."
Distracted by the hideous thing hanging on her Sakura missed the man slipping something into her water. Disgusted and about ready to lose her stomach Sakura was about ready to decline the horribly offer when a voice interrupted."Itachi stop repulsing that poor girl we have a job to do."
Giving a light groan he let Sakura's small figure go and walked off. Still frozen in the same spot Sakura's thoughts rolled around. 'Ha Weasel what a perfect name for that disgusting thing. Oh my god what would have happened if the man didn't come along. Thank Kami he did.' Sighing Sakura finally reached the bar she told the bartender what she wanted and started to head towards the table that Rika and Ray were most likely still making out at. For the second time that night she froze in her steps. 'Was that a gunshot?!'
Yay!! All done. Please rewview tanku!!
