Chapter 3: Arrival and acquaintance
Both planes landed at the same time at the Montreal airport. As Sakura and Eriol got down of the plane, some reporters that somehow knew of their arrivals were waiting for them. In their mind, they already knew who told them. 'Chrissie!' They yelled in their mind.
'Yes?' a voice has appeared in their minds
'Hoe! Since when could you speak with your mind?' Asked Sakura
'A year ago, anyway, I could just do this if I'm near that person. Look around!'
'Fine' Said Eriol
As they turned around, they saw two girls with a sign saying 'Hey Eri, Saki and Robin! We're here!' They wanted to fall back, on their heads, anime style but not before glaring at them. As they looked even more, they saw a girl that looked strangely like Sakura, standing here, looking embarrassed and two men, both with silver hair and golden eyes holding the girls waist. Anna and Chrissie were shouting now! But those two didn't got any time thinking, the reporters' questions came back full forces after a while, for their voices was kind of blocked… Chrissie and Anna could guess why. Soon, both of them were running towards the shouting girls and together, they made it towards a black limo with silver design on the roof, courtesy of our favorite Canadian/Chinese friends, waiting for them.
A little while before, with Robin, Yasha and Sess
When they got down of the plane, they immediately spotted their friends by their sign. They immediately sweat dropped and rushed towards them and prayed for the two others arrived and fast. Around the two girls were a lot of journalists and photographs but they didn't not seems to mind. Almost as they weren't here for them, and they immediately saw why and confirmed their thought, they were here for the two young heir and heiress of the Hiiragizawa's and Kinomoto's companies, Eriol and Sakura. They seemed to be mad about something before turning towards them. A little before, it seems that the reporters and photographers has lost their voices, since they weren't making a sound.
The look that they were giving the two girls was frightening, well, it was before they became embarrassed and started to run by them. When they reached them, the seven teens was running towards the exit of the airport and a black limo with silver designs was waiting for them.
Present time, in the limo
"Huff! Though we will never get away from them" Said Chrissie, wrong timing dear Chrissie!
"Really? Then tell me why you even told them of our arrival?" Asked Eriol
"Well you see… It was because huh…"
"Oh come on Chrissie! It's because there's this boy that keeps bugging the heck out of her, and asking her on dates even though she rejects him each time. Just say she got enough and accidentally yelled out she's having guests and he asked who." Anna said casually
"Don't tell me it's that Travis guy again" Groaned Yasha annoyed but seething at the thought of Chrissie seeing another guy than Him, her boyfriend.
"Calm down brother, Anna said she rejected him." Said Sess nonchalantly "It's not like she's going out with him"
At this, Inuyasha was mad, "What did you say!"
Sess was getting death glares from both Chrissie for making her boyfriend even madder, and his own girlfriend for adding oil to the fire, while the newly arrivals just feel forgotten, even though it was them that were supposed to be mad.
"Huh guys? Can we introduce ourselves at least? Before you start to fight between you four?" Asked Robin, uncertainly
"Oh yea, that!" Said Chrissie, she is finally remembering them.
"Now you didn't forget us did you?" Asked Sakura, she looked a little bit red for the moment. Eriol was slowly inching away from her. Sure, she was sweet and everything but he hates to see her mad.
"No! No we didn't, how could you even think like that Saki!" Stuttered Anna
Not wanting to bring the 'argument' even further, Eriol turned towards Robin and said "My name is Hiiragizawa Eriol. May I have the name of such a beautiful lady?" Ok, maybe he just wanted to flirt but that certainly caught attention. Now all the passengers in the limo were looking at them. Sakura was giggling, Anna and Chrissie were near laughing point and the two guys just thought 'Didn't he just found his girlfriend cheating on him?'
"Hum… " Robin didn't know what to say. It was the first time a man said she looked beautiful, even looked good wasn't on her regular compliments list. Not that there's a lot anyway. So having one of the richest heirs around the world complimenting her, she found it hard not to blush. Which she did. "My name is Robin Sena. I'm pleased to meet you" 'At least, I was polite'
"I'm glad to finally know your name milady"
"So Eriol, still the gentleman from the old days?" Asked Anna
"Not quite right Anna. I have changed from our last visit." He said 'A lot'
"Anyway, my name's Kinomoto Sakura. Don't mind Eriol, he's quite the charmer around. Even though… Even though… Actually you know what? How about you two present your boyfriends to us?" She asked with fake cheerfulness, the question directed to the two habitants of Montreal.
Robin wondered what have happened to her and Eriol, sure they were celebrities, being heirs to successful company and everything but nothing was said about them, quitting Japan.
"Oh I present you Yasha Taisho, my boyfriend with a fool mouth!" Said Chrissie
"I resent that!"
"Oh sorry dear, there, a little excuse" Then she leans in to give him a peck on his lips, effectively shutting his mouth. The boys were smirking and the girls giggling when he looked up and he was blushing, in a bright shade of red.
'Taisho? Seems familiar to me' Thought Eriol going deep in thought, loosing the conversation.
"Anyway, that guy is my man's bro. I present you Sess Taisho. Both of them are heir to the Taisho corps." Said Anna
"I knew it!" shouted Eriol at the same time, having everybody's attention for the second time in not even an hour.
"Eriol are you ok? Did you lacked of oxygen in the plane?" Asked Sakura
"Hum Saki, you do know that's technically impossible right?" Said Anna
"Hoe? Sure I knew it!"
"What are you two talking about?" Asked Eriol, confused
"We should be the one asking! I was talking when you suddenly shouted 'I KNEW IT!'" Said Anna, irritated
"Oh that. I just realized that both your boyfriend are heirs to the Taisho's company."
Everybody felt down anime style and screamed "Didn't you listen to Anna?"
At the same time, the limo pulled to a stop.
"Oh Robin?" Said Sakura while looking at the large lake behind and by the sides of the three stories mansion.
"Yes?" She responds
"Don't you have any luggage?" She asked "I didn't see you with any back in the airport."
"No I didn't bring any. I couldn't really pack anything when I decided to leave in the same two hours. Even less when I was running from somebody…" She said the last part quietly, almost whispering it. Nobody heard her but Chrissie and Anna.
"Anyway, doesn't matter if you have luggage or not, use mine for now ok? We will go shopping tomorrow. I mean, we all have almost the same size right?" Said Anna
"Yeah.. Come on! We're gonna show you your rooms." Continued Chrissie
They continued to walk toward the entrance of the mansion and towards the rooms.
"This, Sakura, is your room and there the key." Said Chrissie as she showed her a suite like room with a faded pink-peach color for walls, a door that leads toward her bathroom, another that leads to a walk in closet, it was empty in it, but it soon to be full. There was a mini-living room in the left part of the room, with two walls around it but it wasn't close, there's also no door. It was open. Her bed was in the right part of the room, the covers were a pale pink with sakura blossom for border. There was a vanity to then left side of the bed and was made of cherry wood. To the right side of the bed was a huge window, giving her a view on the pool and the lake. The pool seems to be falling down in the lake but it wasn't. There was also a little computer corner in the living room where was a radio, a computer and all the computer equipment.
"It's a beautiful view!" Squealed Sakura
"We know… We made it as fast and beautiful as we could. We started it, along with the two other rooms, when Eriol called which was some hours ago!" Said Chrissie, glaring at Eriol.
"Hehe" He stuttered while scratching the back of his head "Why don't we move on while Sakura settles down?"
"Why not?" Said Anna, not caring either they made it fast or not. "Gonna be ok alone? When you're finished settling down, come meet us in the dinning room. I hope you know how to go. We don't have servants so there will be no one. But there's a phone near the bed somewhere so press 1 or 2 and it will ring one of our cell phones. This goes for the three of you. Usually, finding the phone is harder than calling us so. You got it right?"
"Ok" Said Sakura, Robin and Eriol
On this, they left the room toward a red painted door which was beside Sakura's.
"This room will be yours Robin" Said Chrissie as she opened the door while giving her the key. Her room's walls were black and the arrangement was pretty much the same as Sakura but the bed and vanity were in the little room without a door and the living room at the bed's place. Her bed covers were a midnight blue with a blue fire imprint on the end of it. Her vanity was made of a very old wood, yet it seems that it is still really young, by how polished it was. She had a two medium size window on the northern wall of the room, both having the same views as Sakura's window. The door leading to the bathroom and the walk in closet was painted in a dark blue, navy as one will say. There was also a fireplace, but there wasn't any wood or anything. Her computer equipment was in her bedroom.
"Amazing" Robin breathed out but when she saw the fireplace, she turned toward the other and saw the wink from Chrissie while grinning.
Having only Eriol left, they brought him to his room which was in the opposite side of the girl's rooms.
His room was black with a representation of his sign on each wall. His room was different from the others for they made it like his living room when he was still Clow Reed. With a perfect reproduction of his chair and fireplace, the living room was all the same. His bed and everything wasn't behind walls, for the fact that there was only four walls in this room, they were close to the large window given him a view to the garden and the lake behind. His bed sheets were black with his sign on it as well. His computer equipment was in the walk in closet which isn't closet. His closet was a small one without door. He got another laptop on a table near his bed.
"Nice" He simply said. He was even more used to that kind of treatment so he wasn't really 'thrown off his feet' but he have to admit it's better made than his own.
"But question. After we settle down we go to the dinning room but how?" Asked Eriol
"Great… Eriol if you had listen just then instead of checking Robin out, Anna said there's a phone near the bed, find it, press one or two and it will call us." Said Chrissie annoyed
A while later
Everyone was downstairs, in the dinning room. They were talking about their lives so far. It has been long since they saw each other, for some of them anyway.
"So Robin, why are you in Canada?" Asked Eriol
"Believe it or not, I was a witch hunter and I'm a witch myself. But my power, which is fire, is somewhat under control. But recently, on a hunt, I 'incinerate' a man that we couldn't catch and was too dangerous. For this, my colleague is now hunting me. And you?" She asked back. She wasn't sure why she was telling him them that, but she got the impression that she could trust those two.
"Well, just yesterday, I was still a carefree girl with a wonderful boyfriend. I was rich and still is, I'm a sorceress, and everything. My life was perfect. But yesterday, I found my boyfriend making out with my best friend which happens to be Eriol's girlfriend. We decided to quit the country. If I'm right, my brother would have talked my father in avenging me or something. I don't want to know what happened back there. I'm sure I'm gonna flinch." Respond Sakura
"Oh I'm sorry for the two of you." Said Robin, taken aback by their story, and there she thought she was the only one betrayed.
"Hey stop the sad faces will you?" Said Chrissie "To talk about other things, you should have remarked that the three of you have powers that not anyone would have."
Seeing that the three Japanese teens nodded, she continued "Anna and me decided that you should be even more trained. I know Sakura is the Card mistress and Eriol is the half-reincarnation of Clow Reed. Robin, you're a really high-powered witch since it's not any witch that have elemental powers. But we have to upgrade those a little. While Anna and I are going to train you in magic, the boys will train you in fighting. Sess will see that you know the Magic's history, both witch and sorcerer and even a little bit of demonic. Not all demons are bad you know."
"Yeah" Said Sakura, Eriol and Robin.
"It has been long since I have fought any one that could beat me" Said Eriol, earning himself a whack in the back of his head by Sakura "WHAT!"
"Couldn't beat you?" Yelled Sakura
They failed to see Yasha and Sess flinched.
"Can you tell those two to lower their voices?" Whispered Yasha to his girlfriend
"Hum guys, could you lower your voices? We got some sensitive ears in here." Said Chrissie. Sess and Yasha glared at her for that little comment.
"Sorry" they both replied at the same time, still sending each other murderous glances.
Robin was starting to fell uncomfortable so she looks pleadingly at Anna who sighed and shook her head.
"Sakura, Eriol? Can you just shut it for a while?" Groaned Chrissie
And the evening continued like that, with many arguments, make out sessions and glaring competitions.
That night, Robin was sitting in her living room thinking about what mess she landed herself into when she decided to go to Japan. 'Here I thought I was going to live peacefully. Anyway… Hey where's my cell?'
She walks toward her bedroom with goal to find it, but no luck she didn't found anything. 'Damn I must have left it in Japan. Great, I knew I should have deleted those calls. Now Amon is going to find the number out.'
Suddenly she hears the phone rang; she didn't know what to do, to pick it up or not. Finally it ceased to ring, but Anna's voice was in her mind. 'Hey Robin there's a guy that want to talk to you.'
'I didn't give your number to anybody. I left my cell by in Japan. So it must be Amon. Can you give me the number?' Anna gave her the number on the little screen. 'Damn It's him I'm not here. I'm never here ok!'
'Whoa calm down! Ok then.'
Later she heard Anna says "Sorry I do think you called the wrong number. There's no Robin in this house."
Robin sighed in relief and was about to lie down on her bed when her door banged. It was Anna.
"Ok tell me who that guy was?" She shouted
"Huh Amon Masawi?" She said tentatively
The guy that's chasing you?"
"Yes him"
"Ok then good night. Oh yea come in my room, I'm giving you some clothes to wear for the night. I doubt you want to sleep in that dress. Come on"
"Well, Anna I habitually sleeps without those either."
"What did you say? I didn't hear you. Anyway we're here."
"Oh nothing!"
They were in front of a door that was painted blue sky. The eldest of the two girls took out her key and insert it into the keyhole. She didn't even turn the knob that the door opens itself. Inside was painted with a blue a not much darker than the door's paint. The setting was slightly different. The positions of each thing were at the same positions as hers but the ceiling was higher by two meters or so it seems. Her bedroom place was at the end of a two steps stairs, inside was painted with peach color walls and there were two swords crossing on each of the three walls. The walk in closet was set in the bedroom as well. Her computer set was near the living room and the large window has the same view as Sakura, the window itself was in face of the living room. The seats all around it.
"Come in." She leads her toward her walk in closet and to a pajama's section.
"Come on choose something." She told her.
Robin looked around her trying to find something that will fits her style. She found a black nightgown that wasn't revealing. I didn't have any sleeves and it ended at her knees. It was perfect. The best thing about it was that it was made of the finest silk she ever saw.
"I'll take this one" She said
"Good choice. Tomorrow morning, come back here and choose a set of clothing. We're going shopping tomorrow."
"Ok"
At the same time in Japan, after the call, in the STN-J building
"So was she there?" Asked Sakaki
"No" was the curt answer of their dark leader
"Where could she be?" Asked Dojima but Amon has lost his concentration long ago.
'She took too much time to answer me. I'm sure that Robin is there. But since when did she know people in Canada? I thought she lived in Italy?'
With Sakura
Through the night, Sakura couldn't sleep. She couldn't stop thinking about the scene that was from her past already. Just then her cell phone rang. She looked at the number, it was her brother.
"Hey Touya"
: Hey kaiiju:
"I'm not a monster!"
: I'm not calling you to argue. I believe you and Eriol got into enough arguments that can reach the end of Anna's patience:
"I guess you can say that" She was laughing at that one.
: Anyway, I'm just calling to tell you that Tomoyo has been disowned:
"What? You two didn't have to go that far!"
: It wasn't my idea. We just told Sonomi and she disowned her. After that girl left, she said that anyone that dishonored their family was to be disowned. Not my fault! Oh and Yue and Cerberus along with Eriol's guardian are going to where you're staying tomorrow night. They'll be here by the air way ok:
"I think I'm really too nice. Oh and yes for the guardians thing."
: Why do you say that:
"I'm feeling bad for her"
: Ok now you're definitely too nice:
"TOUYA!"
: What you said it yourself! Anyway I have to go. :
"Ok well, bye then. Tell father that I love him. And love you too"
: Bye… Kaiiju: And he immediately hung up. Sakura just smirked and closed her eyes a moment before reopening them, they now contained laughter.
Back in Japan
In the Kinomoto's mansion
Touya just hanged up with a goofy smile in his face. And his father was shaking his head.
Just as he was about to laugh out, a bolt of lightning hit him, but did not kill him.
'Sakura! Nice? My ass!'
Owari
