I Think I Can

Summary: When Sakura kills Meiling, only the worst can come out of it. She is put up for trial and while that is going on, is put through counseling. What will bring this big bad teen back to a happy bouncy 18-year old girl?
Is that person's name Syaoran?

Okay, here is my third fanfic. And, please R&R. I don't like criticism, so
don't even try.

Note: I do not own Card Captors/Card Captor Sakura. I wish I did, but,
alas, I don't.

Ch.1 Bad Timing

I held the gun in my hands, and no one was going to make me let go. It was
just me and Meiling, trapped inside of this small cramped room.

"You told him, didn't you!?" I yelled. "You told Eriol! And then, you go
out with him!"

My rage was no where close to what I my screaming was.

"No... I, I just gave hints! It's not like he liked you, either! Don't hurt
me, please!" she shouted.

I gripped the gun harder, and then remembered those words. I looked at her.
She was crouched in the corner, and tears were running down her cheeks. I pulled the trigger a bit. She must have seen me, because she screamed.

"Please! Don't pull the trigger! I promise I'll never ever betray you!
Just don't hurt me!" is what that scared girl had yelled.

"It's too late for that." I told her.

I pulled the trigger as hard as I could. Sweat streamed down my face. Bang! Once. Bang! Twice. Bang! Three times. I stared at her body, laying there, with blood everywhere. Her mother rushed in. I stood there, with the gun in
my hands.

"Wha-What happened?!" she asked.

She gasped, looked at me, then screamed,

"Meiling?! Meiling! Sakura? What-"

She had seen the gun in my hands, and then the bullet holes in Meiling's
chest.

"Sa...Sakura? No... I don't believe this. It cannot be true." she
stuttered.

I just stared at her.

"Sakura?! Answer me, now! Tell me, did you do this?!" she yelled between
sobs.

I nodded my head. I felt sorry for her. All because of me, Meiling was dead, as dead as she'll ever be. She started crying and rushed toward the phone. I heard her whisper a few words and then hang up. She stared at her daughter, never looking up at me. I started to leave and, I was surprised, because she let me. I walked out of the house, and dropped the gun on the front porch. I kept walking and then, my pace suddenly got faster. I could hear faint sounds of sirens in the background. Suddenly, a cop turned the corner. I suddenly couldn't move my legs. He stops in front of me and gets
out of the car.

"Are you Sakura Kinomoto?" the cop asked.

I nod my head a couple of times.

"I'm sorry, but, you have just been accused of murdering an eighteen year
old girl. You must be coming with me, now."

I stepped into the car. Everything smelled like burnt metal. I didn't like it. While we were driving, I watched a little girl jump rope. She looked so happy, so innocent. We finally got to Meiling's house, and so many people were there. I could see Meiling getting wheeled away on a cart. I felt much
guilt inside of me. There was no reason to kill Meiling. It was all one
simple mistake. I stepped out of the vehicle to face Meiling's mom. Suddenly, a bunch of news reporters jumped out at me. Many questions popped
out of no where.

"How does it feel to murder an 18-year old girl?" one person asked.

"Do you know that you might be sent to prison, or even given the death
penalty for committing such a crime?" questioned another.

I just kept on walking. When I opened the front door, there was Meiling's mom, crying on the floor. I tried to comfort her, but she wouldn't listen
to me. I wanted to put my arm around Meiling's mom, and she just pushed
away. I looked around the room, and noticed the many police officers inspecting the area. What was more to inspect? I killed Meiling, Meiling is
dead.

"I killed her," I said.

All of the officers look up. One walked over to me and said,
"Ma'am, it seems like you have committed a murder." How many times do people have to tell me this? I think I know what I did.
And, what I might do next time.
