Sohmas and CLAMP Detectives

Chapter 1: A little Prologue

            When did the rain come?

When did the torment start?

            When did the snow fall?

When did the cooling burn?

            When did life thus fail?

When did he become free?

            The Sohma house was being destroyed yet again, with Kyo and Kagura around, that is. You could hear the shouting from a mile away, thus starting up rumors once again. Poor Shigure watched helplessly as another wall tumbled down, this time on his office, causing poor little Mii to wonder how on earth Shigure was going to get his work done now.

            In the garden where the strawberries and leeks were, Yuki Sohma rested, smiling at the basket full of ripe strawberries. At first he thought he would only be able to get a half full basket of the little sweet fruits, not a completely full basket. He looked at the clouds, which looked like fluffy marshmallows. That's when Yuki realized how hungry he was.

            While walking around the grocery store, Tohru saw a bag of shrimp on sale for $2 a bag. She never had shrimp before (AN: I don't remember what they taste like, but I know I don't like them), and she wondered if the others had. So she picked up a bag and continued on.

            The main house of the Sohma family was eerily quiet inside. Akito was watching out the window, curiously eyeing Momiji playing with a young girl he had never seen before. For some odd reason, she reminded him of Ayame, probably because of her intense liking of clothes. Besides that, the two seemed really close… almost too close.

            Hatsuharu walked around aimlessly, not really knowing where he was. After crossing yet another street, he noticed something odd in the sky. Since when are there giant floating penguins?!

(On the penguin: this is from book 3 of CSD. I reworded it a little) "From now on… I will always protect you."

            No one could have predicted what would happen in three years, even as the rain began to fall into emptiness. It was… a silent rainfall.

There, chapter one is done. What will happen next? Who is the strange girl that Akito saw with Momiji? ^_^ I'm not telling! This is Hikari Rioki, signing off!
