Here's Chapter 1 of The Life of an Unexpected Identity. I hope you will
like it. It will get better as I get more time to think of what to write
about. And since it's school time, I won't be updating this very quickly.
Sorry about that. So tell me what you think. Please. I am dying to know if
this one's any good. Arigatou.
Chapter 1: Lost and Found
Early one morning, a fisherman was going out in his boat to catch some fish when he suddenly saw something from a far distance. It looked like a big fish's tail. He turned on the boat and steered it toward the thing he saw. Just as he was approaching the spot, the thing jumped out of the water like a dolphin. He was able to see that the thing he had seen was a woman. But then she disappeared under water and stayed there.
Farther away from the fisherman's boat, the woman poked her head up from the water again a few minutes later. She had long, wavy, greyish-blue hair that went to about her waist and the same colour of eyes. (A/N The woman is Nadeshiko btw.) In her arms she had a tiny baby wrapped in a blanket.
The woman knew that she would get caught eventually, so she put her baby in a nearby boat. Then, no matter if she wanted to or not, she had to bid fairwell to it. When she had done that, she swam away with tears in her eyes.
A few minutes later, the owners of the boat were going to take it out for a spin. When they had boarded and were a small distance away from the dock, they heard a small noise that sounded like a whimpering baby. They seached the boat but couldn't find the source of the noise until the woman found it in their bucket where they put the fish they catch. The woman shouted to her husband, "I found a baby in here!"
"What? A baby? In there? Let me see." Her husband walked to the bucket and looked inside. "You're right! There is a baby in there!" The woman took the baby out of the bucket and held it close to her chest. "Isao-san, can we keep her?"
"H-her?" asked Isao. "Hai. She's a girl," replied Kaho.
"Well I don't know. You don't really know anything about taking care of a baby," said Isao. "You haven't had one, yet."
"I can learn. Please? I've always wanted to take care of one. Please," Kaho pleaded.
"Well alright but first we have to take her home and call the police station and see if they can track her parents down. Okay?"
"Alright. Let's go." They turned their boat around and headed back to the dock. Then they headed back to their house and called the police station. They said that they would call back a few days later.
A few days later.
"I'm afraid that we couldn't track the baby's parents down so you may have her," said a man from the service.
"Oh arigatou gozaimasu. That is great news!" said Kaho but added when Isao gave her a Look, "But I'm very sorry that you couldn't find her parents."
"I am too miss. But that's how things are sometimes," he said, "Anyway we were glad to try."
"Thanks for trying. Bye," said Kaho and hung up. "Yes we get to keep little Sakura-chan here," she said holding her.
"Wh-what? Sakura-chan?" "Hai I thought over her name very carefully."
"Without telling me about it?" Sakura smiled at him with her cuteness. "Oh alright. Sakura-chan it is. Sakura Mizuki." (A/N I'm keeping Kaho's last name and it's the same last name as Isao.)
"Mizuki?" asked Kaho very surprised. "Well we don't know her last name," said Isao.
"I was thinking of Sakura Kinomoto," said Kaho. "Kinomoto? Where did that last name come from?" "It was sewn on the blanket that she was wrapped in when I found her. No first name but last name. I'm thinking that Kinomoto's her real last name."
"Oh. I see. Alright then. Sakura Kinomoto," he agreed, "but what about Mizuki?" "Well Mizuki could be her middle name I guess." "Sakura Mizuki Kinomoto. I like that," said Isao and both of them agreed.
**12 years later**
"HOEEEE!" yelled a young girl springing up from her pillow on her bed. She yawned and checked her clock. When she saw what time it was she got out of bed, put her school uniform on and brushed her long, wavy, honey brown hair putting it up in a high ponytail with a medium-sized bow the same colour as the tie on her uniform. She left her bangs hanging down. (A/N just imagine Sakura with the hairstyle she has in the anime except that her hair is long in the back and up in a high ponytail with her bangs still hanging down.) The school uniform was the same as the summertime Tomoeda Elementary School one except that the skirt went down to her knees and was dark red. The shirt was the same except that the tie was a lighter red than the skirt. And the shoes were the same as well only bigger. The hat was also the same.
"Sakura-san are you coming? You're going to be late for school?" asked Isao.
"Hai Otou-san. I'm coming."
"Don't forget your backpack and hat," yelled Kaho from the kitchen.
"Hai," said Sakura and put her backpack on and carried her hat downstairs.
When she entered the kitchen, she was greeted by her parents. "Ohayo gozaimasu Sakura-san," said Isao and Kaho at the same time. "Ohayo Okaa- san, Otou-san."
As she ate her breakfast, Kaho asked, "Well you're about to start 8th grade. Are you nervous?"
"Iie," said Sakura with a little bit of a nervous tone to her voice. "Well maybe just a little."
"Don't worry about it Sakura-san. Everyone gets nervous on his or her first day of going to a new school. I know I did," said Isao.
"You did?" asked Sakura.
"Hai and I know that you're mother did, too. We were in the same class that year."
"Really?"
"Hai," they both answered in unison.
"That's interesting. Is that where you two first met?"
Both of them blushed. Kaho more than Isao. "Hai. Let's just say it was love at fist sight."
Sakura looked at the clock and said, "I had better get going if I don't went to be late for my first day." She ran to the door. "Bye Okaa-san, Otou- san."
"Bye," they both said.
Sakura closed the door and was off.
She ran to school. She met her best friend Tomoyo at the doors. "Ohayo Tomoyo-chan," she called out and ran to the doors a little out of breath.
"Ohayo gozaimasu, Sakura-chan," Tomoyo said after Sakura had reached her.
"So, who's class are you in?" Sakura asked Tomoyo.
"I'm in Adatchi-sensei's homeroom."
"Really? So am I!" Sakura said excitedly. "Cool we're in the same homeroom!"
BRIIIIIIG. The school bell rang.
"We had better get to our homeroom fast," Sakura. "I don't want to be late on the first day."
"Hai," was all Tomoyo said and followed her in.
In the classroom.
"Sit down please," said Adatchi-sensei. The student's sat down. "Ohayo class. My name is Kazuo Adatchi. Nice to meet you."
"Ohayo Adatchi-sensei," said the class.
"First off before we begin class, I would like to introduce to you a new student from Hong Kong, China. Please welcome Li Syaoran," said Adatchi- sensei. A tall young man about 6' entered the room and stood up front. He looked around the classroom until he noticed Sakura. He just stood there, looking at her, until she noticed. He just kept looking at her. Sakura got a little nervous of a boy looking at her.
**** That's all that I am going to write for now. More coming up. I hope this is a good start for this one. (I forgot to mention that I'm just starting to write fanfics.) I promise that I'll get better the more I write them. I have written about 5 fanfics so far. I still need practice and to really learn how. Also I was rushing on my others because it was getting too close for school to come again. So I'm sorry about that. I'll try harder next time. ****
