A/N: This is Sweetie-Saphira, and this is my first story, so try not to be too harsh in (genuine) criticisms and reviews, please! Also, I apologize in advance if this copies another story that I've seen, that crosses Vampire Knight with Cardcaptor Sakura. I wouldn't know that, however, since I can neither read nor speak Indonesian.
Sakura stood in the doorway of the living room, listening as her father, Touya and Yukito argued for the fifth time about whether or not it was a good idea to send her to this "Cross Academy" place. Oddly enough, it was Yukito that was vouching for her not going. She was glad that at least someone was on her side, as no one else had even bothered to ask for her opinion. She was surprised that Yukito and Yue were against each other on this subject, as both Yue and Kero agreed that she should go to Cross Academy, claiming that it was a school that had great ratings, blah blah blah... Well, did anyone consider that perhaps, she didn't want to go to a boarding school?!
Sakura inched closer to the inside of the current "War Room", as that was how the living room was apparently being treated at this moment. The voices of her father, brother, and best friend/guardian Yukito. Speaking of Yukito, Sakura heard her guardian say something that she was just dying to hear him say.
"Why don't you ask Sakura for her opinion? It makes the most sense...", Yukito said. Sakura coughed loudly. Yukito didn't even jump when he heard her cough.
"Oh, there you are, Sakura-chan, " Yukito said, turning to smile at her.
Sakura smiled sweetly at her brother's... ah... friend, before turning to glare at her aforementioned brother, and father. She had opened her mouth to begin yelling at her onii-chan when she was suddenly swamped in a wave of exhaustion.
"Damn it, not again!" She thought as she succumbed it, and the world began to fade to darkness.
She awoke in her bed, and quickly glanced at her clock. It was... 4 IN THE MORNING?! She knew that she had been fainting since she had started practicing concealing her magic with Syaoran and Eriol-kun, but she had normally recovered in a few minutes, very rarely had she been unconscious for over an hour, this was just getting ridiculous now. She had also skipped practice today, well, actually yesterday now. Could her fainting have something to do with that Clow Reed imposter that she had locked out of the dimension? She had only started practicing concealing her magic since that Fei Wong Reed guy had tried to kill her. She still found it surprising that Lock could lock people out of dimensions.
"Mirror, I need your help," Sakura whispered. "Become another me, so I can find out what's going on," She added as she noticed the light on in her brother's room.
"Mirror, pretend to be me sleeping," Sakura instructed. "Shadow, Silent, allow me to move silently through the shadows," She commanded as she exited her room into the currently silent hall. As she reached the top of the stairs, she could hear the hushed whispers of her father and brother growing steadily louder as the pair argued.
"Otou-san! This is the third time that she has fainted like this! We can't send her to this school if she is sick, why don't you understand that?" Sakura heard her brother say angrily to their (most likely by this point) exasperated father.
Fujitaka sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose before replying to Touya's (Perfectly sound argument at this point, Sakura thought snarkily to herself) taunt.
"Touya, I understand that we can't send her to school if she is sick. However, as I've already explained, I am quite certain that this fainting of hers may mean that she needs to go to the school that much more, as I do not believe that Sakura-chan is sick. If it makes you feel better, we'll take Sakura-san to the doctor's later today, and we get her checked out. In the event that she is actually ill, then we shall delay her arrival to the school until she is better. If not, then she is going to school. In either possibility, she WILL be going to Cross Academy, and that is one matter that I will not budge on." Fujitaka replied firmly.
Touya looked cross at the rebuttal, and was about to reply, when Sakura jumped in, after dismissing Silent, Shadow, and Mirror of course.
"I agree with Otou-san, onii-chan." Sakura said softly.
Touya whipped his head around to stare at her; his eyes wide in ... panic? She couldn't quite tell.
"H-h-how long have you been standing there?" Touya stuttered as he struggled to figure out how she got there.
"Long enough to know that apparently my opinion in the matter doesn't count," Sakura replied, glaring at her father.
"Anyways, if my thoughts count for anything, I'd like for Yukito-san to come with me- "
"That has already been arranged, " Fujitaka interrupted with coolly, giving Sakura a look.
"We should get to bed, shouldn't we, Otou-san?" Sakura asked after glancing at the time.
"Yes, we should," Fujitaka replied as he stared off into space.
"You and Touya head back to bed. I'll stay here for a bit longer and hopefully get my report done." he continued, before sending his children to bed.
Fujitaka waited until he knew for sure that his son and daughter were out of earshot, and asleep; before responding to the other man in the room.
"You're still here?" he inquired without even turning around to face him.
"Yes, sir."
"Good, I hope you remember what I told you prior to this meeting."
"Yes, sir."
"You remember what I told about the event?" Fujitaka asked, turning to face the man with the long silver hair that was tied into a loose ponytail.
"Yes, Fujitaka-sama."
A/N: Alright everybody! That's the prologue! Remember, this is my first story ever, so don't be too harsh with your reviews after you type me something in that marvelous blank box down there! Remember to Read, Review, and favourite! Drop a review if you can guess who the silver-haired man is!
Update as of 11/16/2014: I won't update this story unless I get one review. Just one is all I ask, not that you all shouldn't reviewe, but I need at least one review to keep me motivated.
