1.1 Hiya!! DISCALMER: I DON'T OWN THE CCS STORY THEY BELONG TO CLAMP!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*Outside the Kinomoto Residence*
Sakura was running down the street, sobbing [How could he possibly do this to me?] she slowed when she reached her front walkway [After everything we've gone through.]
"Sakura?" she stiffened and looked up. Tomoyo was standing on the front steps. "What's wrong?" Sakura tried to stop her tears and whipped her face but the tears kept flowing.
"Oh Tomoyo. Li. he. he." she couldn't talk and sobbed harder. She sank to the ground her head in her hands. Tomoyo rushed over and wrapped her arms around Sakura.
"Since when do you call Syaoran-kun 'Li'? What happened?"
"He. he. he was. he was with. Mizu. Mizumi. and. he. he. he. kissed. her. on. on the. lips. I. I saw. the. whole." she couldn't say anything else. Tomoyo's eyes narrowed. She pulled Sakura up.
"Come on, we gotta get you inside." They went inside and Tomoyo brought Sakura upstairs. A few minutes later, Syaoran came racing around the corner and up the walkway. He went inside the house and up to Sakura's room. He gently knocked on the door.
"Sa. Sakura?" He said softly. He heard murmuring and movement in the room then the door opened a crack. Tomoyo's eyes appeared, narrowed and with a glint of hate in them.
"What do you want Li?"
"I need to talk to Sakura."
"She's in no condition to talk to you and I'm in no mood to let you. Kero- chan agrees with me." Kero-chan floated out through the crack. He landed on the floor and transformed into Cerebos. Syaoran backed up a bit.
"I never did like you brat." He growled, "You stay away from Sakura or I'll shred you good." He transformed back into Kero-chan and went back into the room. Tomoyo shut the door, leaving Syaoran in the hall. He slid to the ground [Sakura. I'm sorry I caused you so much pain.] he sighed [I should have never come back.] he got up and walked to his room [I guess it's time to find an apartment.]
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*The Next Day, Tomoeda Senior High*
Sakura was in class, trying to suppress her tears. Kaho was up front, talking about quadratic equations but Sakura wasn't listening. Tomoyo was busing giving Mizumi glares and Syaoran was looking out the window.
"Alright class. Take out a sheet of paper, copy these problems down and solve them." The room was filled with the sound of pencils scratching against paper. Sakura tried to write but tears clouded her vision. Tears fell from her face and onto her notebook. Kaho walked over to her and knelt down. "Sakura? Are you alright?" she whispered. Sakura shook her head "Do you want to go to the lav? Maybe the nurse?" Sakura nodded. Kaho looked over to Tomoyo "Tomoyo well you go with her?"
"Hai Ms. Mizuki. Come on Sakura." She led Sakura out of the room. Mizumi smiled evilly. Kaho narrowed her eyes at the two sisters [They must have done something.] she looked at Syaoran, who was watching Sakura leave with a sad look on his face [I didn't realize that they liked to play dirty.]
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*Kinomoto Residence, Sunday*
Sakura hadn't gone to school the rest of the week. She spent most of the time crying in her room and Fujitaka didn't know what had happened, so he hadn't forced her to go to school. She and Tomoyo were in her room. Sakura was gazing out the window while Tomoyo was taking about school.
". And then Takashi got into this big story about the fact that the Egyptians invented baseball. Then Chiharu did something no one expected. She actually kissed him to shut him up. It was so kawaii." Sakura didn't react. "Sakura, have you heard a word I've said?" she didn't respond and Tomoyo sighed, "Well, I guess not." There was a knock at the door. Tomoyo got up and answered it. Syaoran was standing there with a bag and his jacket on. "What do you want?"
"I'm leaving. I found my own apartment and I'm moving in. Just tell Sakura goodbye for me and tell I
lo--" he dropped his eyes to the ground. "Just tell her good-bye." He turned and walked away. Tomoyo closed the door. A taxi was waiting outside for Syaoran. He loaded his stuff in the trunk and got in the back of the taxi.
"Who was it Tomoyo?" Sakura asked.
"Just Li. He found his own apartment and said goodbye." Sakura's eyes widened as he watched the taxi pull away from the house. Syaoran was sitting backwards; watching the house disappear [Syaoran.] Sakura whipped a stray tear away. In the taxi, Syaoran turned around and slumped in the seat [Good-bye Sakura. I. I love you.] a tear fell down his cheek, but he quickly whipped it away [I just wish. I just wish I got the chance to explain.]
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*Reimeino Residence*
Mizumi bust into the apartment, grinning. She bounded up to Kano.
"Brother, I have done it! My plan worked perfectly!!"
"It's done?"
"I just witnessed Little Wolf leaving Cherry Blossom's home." Kano grinned
"Excellent." Tenkou looked up.
"You. you succeeded? Your stupid plan actually worked?!?!" Tenkou was in disbelief [I thought their relationship was stronger than that.] Mizumi glared at her.
"Mizumi's plan worked perfectly. I helped us out greatly. What have you done to help us?" Kano said coldly. Tenkou glared at him.
"You three would be absolutely nothing without Sky and I! Papa gave the youngest the strongest guardian! You may have separated Sakura and Syaoran, but you will never keep them apart! And you will never kill them without ME!" she was becoming hysterical "I AM LEAVING AND THERE IS NO WAY YOU ARE GOING TO STOP ME!!" she turned heel and started to walk out the door when Kano grabbed her and threw her to the floor. She looked up with anger in her eyes. Kano stood over her, glowering.
"If you walk out that door, you immediately become our enemy and you will die along with Little Wolf and Cherry Blossom"
"You.you wouldn't ."
"Its called tough love, sister," said Mizumi.
"Defy us and die. Its your decision."
"You are bluffing. If you even have a trace of heart, you won't be able to kill me"
"Do you really want to test me?" Fear flickered through Tenkou's eyes. She let out a large sigh.
"Fine."
"Good," Keno turned to the others, " Tonight we go after Cherry Blossom."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*11:12 PM, Kinomoto Residence*
Sakura was lying in bed, unable to sleep. Kero-chan's snoring could be heard through his drawer [Enough of this. there's no point lying down if I can't sleep.] She got up, went to her window and stared up at the moon [Syaoran. I miss you. why did this have to happen.] Her eyes filled with tears and she started to cry softly. Suddenly, Aqua appeared at her window. She gasped and jumped back. Aqua motioned to Sakura to come out, but Sakura shook her head. Aqua glared at Sakura and shattered her window. Sakura screamed and shielded herself with her arms. She felt a prick and something warm running down her arm. She put her arms down and noticed a long scratch down her forearm. She gasped in pain and put her hand on the wound to stop the bleeding. She glared at Aqua and grabbed the key and cards. She called the wand and pulled The Fly out.
"Hidden powers of Light, I, Sakura, command you to return to your true form: RELEASE!" a pair of wings appeared on her back and she jumped out of her window and gently floated to the ground. She faced all four Reimeino's and their guardians. She sighed. "Look, it's eleven 'o clock and I'm tired. I'm not in the mood to deal with you four." Kano smirked.
"Well that's too bad Cherry Blossom. You will have to deal with us whether you like it or not."
"Wonderful. I suppose you could make the first move then."
"As you wish. Blaze go!" as Blaze charged at Sakura, she yawned and called The Shield. Blaze just bounced off and was very mad. Sakura smiled.
"I could do this all night."
"I doubt Shield could though. Especially with Aqua, Soil and Sky attacking with Blaze." Sakura's eyes widened. After a few minutes of attacks, The Shield gave out and returned to it's card form on it's own. Sakura gasped [Now how am I gonna defend myself. I don't have the will power right now to use my stronger cards.] "Now what are you going to do Cherry Blossom?" Kano smirked. Blaze, Soil, Aqua and Sky charged at Sakura.
"JUMP!" little wings appeared on her slippers and she jumped up into the air, but the guardians had anticipated that move. Sakura was surrounded on all sides and attacked. She plummeted toward the ground and landed on the asphalt hard. She winced in pain as Kano laughed. A few blocks away, Syaoran jolted out of sleep [Sakura!] he leapt out of bed, grabbed his sword and ran outside barefooted [Please be alright Sakura.] he ran toward Sakura's house as fast as he could. When he turned the corner, he found Sakura on the ground, badly hurt. Aqua was hovering over her, smirking.
"Force, know my plight, release the light! Lightning!" A bolt hurdled toward Aqua and hit her with such a big force, that she flew into a wall. Syaoran rushed over to Sakura, pulling her into his lap.
"Sakura?" he whispered.
"Damn, with him around we can't kill her!" Mizumi groaned. Syaoran glared at her. Sakura groaned and opened her eyes. She stiffened and immediately got up.
"What are you doing here?" her icy voice chilled Syaoran to the bone. He stood up.
"To help you of course!"
"I don't need your help! Besides, isn't your girlfriend on the other side?" the comment cut through Syaoran like a knife.
"This is not going to work. Let's go now, I am tired." Chino said, yawning.
"Hai." Tenkou said. Kano sighed.
"Alright. Besides, this little drama is boring." They called the four guardians back and walked away. By the time Sakura turned around, they were gone. She sighed.
"They left. What is with them anyway. bothering me this late at night." she turned to Syaoran "I'm going back to bed. I suggest you go home." Syaoran noticed her arm.
"But. your arm. it's wounded."
"No kidding. I'll be fine. Just go away!" she called The Float and drifted back to her room. Syaoran stood there and watched her float away [If she'd give me a chance to explain, instead of running away, everything would be better.] he turned and slowly walked back toward his apartment. Sakura flung herself on her bed, not bothering to dress her wound and tried to fall asleep.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*Tuesday, Tomoeda Senior High*
It was lunch and Syaoran was sitting alone at a table. When his classmates found out what had happened, they were cold to him and Mizumi. He spied the Reimeino's at their table outside. He got up and stormed outside. As he approached their table, they stopped talking.
"I want to know what this is all about." Syaoran said.
"Why, whatever do you mean?" Mizumi asked
"I want to know why you are trying to kill Sakura and I."
"Does your mother tell you nothing?" Kano asked
"What do you mean by that?"
"When you were young, did she ever tell you how the Clow Cards were created?"
"Hai."
"The other soccer. His last name was Reimeino." Syaoran's eyes widened.
"Nani?"
"He was our father." Syaoran gasped
"How?"
"We are from Clow Reed's time. Before Father and Mother passed away, Father had enough magic left the send up forward in time. His final request was to eliminate the new card master and Reed's descendants. He never knew how far ahead he sent us and when we got here, we didn't know who had the cards or where to find them. Mizumi and Tenkou were only nine; Chino and I were only ten. We searched for a year in Japan and finally found you and Cherry Blossom. We decided to wait until all the cards were captured and waited until we were strong enough to attack, but you left and went back to Hong Kong. So we waited. I knew you would eventually come back to Cherry Blossom." Syaoran narrowed his eyes.
"You've been watching and waiting for that long?"
"Hai. Mizumi and I were in Hong Kong for quite a while. We came back to Japan one year before you did." Kano grinned evilly "And we plan to fulfill Father's wish."
"If you hurt Sakura, I swear."
"What? What do you swear? Your magic is nowhere near as strong as ours. Just try it." He glanced at Tenkou "You were right; their bond was strong. Too bad we destroyed it." Kano laughed. Syaoran glared at him fought the urge to punch his grinning face. Feeling he didn't need to hear anything else, he turned and walked back to school [I need to tell Sakura about this. her life is in danger. but. how can I when she won't even speak to me.]
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Lunar-chan: Ooohhhh. Cliffhanger-ish. I think.
Neko-chan: Hai! What's going to happen next?
Lunar-chan: You already know.
Neko-chan: (smiles) I know!
Kero-chan: ARE YOU PLANNING TO DO SOMETHING BAD? LIKE. KILL SOMEONE?
Lunar-chan: NO! I don't do a lot of morbid stuffs. If someone does die.. They always come back to life in some miracle type way. And quit yelling!
Kero-chan: All right.
Neko-chan: So. did you find Sakura?
Lunar-chan: Hai. but she won't talk to Syaoran or me. I think she's hiding in the corner.
Syaoran: (glares at Lunar-chan) Why am I in hot water?
Lunar-chan: (immune to Syaoran's glares) Cause it was getting boring and I needed a twist.
Syaoran: So. you like playing with people's love lives?
Lunar-chan: So! You admit you love her?
Syaoran: (Blushes) I. I. never said that.
Lunar-chan: (dances around Syaoran) You can't hide anything from me. I'm the writer. I know what you're thinking!
Syaoran: (Rolls eyes) What am I thinking?
Lunar-chan: You're thinking "If she doesn't stop dancing, I'm gonna hit her."
Syaoran: (mouth drops open and doesn't say anything)
Lunar-chan: HA! Told ya so.
Neko-chan: (giggles)
Lunar-chan: Well. I have a request from all the readers. If anyone knows Syaoran's spell thingies in the real JAPANESE way instead of the baka ENGLIGH spell that is sooooooooo dumb. PLEASE TELL ME SO I CAN FIX IT! (on her knees, begging) I really, REALLY want to fix it and I can't find it anywhere!
Neko-chan: (pets Lunar-chan's head) It's ok Lunar-chan. Stand up. you're making a spectacle of yourself.
Lunar-chan: (stands up, sniffing) Well. anyway, you have to tell me so I don't go insane. I'll see you in the next chapter. if you're mad about the twist. don't worry, be happy! Later Peoples! PEACE!
