Part I
It was a spring
afternoon and Sakura was nervous as she arrived at the airport. Touya followed along carrying her bags.
"Okay Squirt. Are you sure you want to go to China? I mean what if that gaki forgot about you?"
asked Touya, setting her bags down on the conveyer belt.
"He's not a
brat! I think he will remember me. Anyways, I'm almost sixteen, I can take care
of myself," she said as she paid for her plane ticket.
"Whatever. Just call me or Dad when you're in trouble
okay? We'll come and get you if that
gaki hurts you in anyway."
"Oh Syaoran would
never hurt me." 'He loves me. He can't possibly hurt me…. Or forget me.'
*flashback*
"Syaoran, do you
really have to go back to China?" a tear-stained face Sakura asked.
"Yes. As much as I hate to go, the clan wants me
to hold up the family since I'm about to become head of it." He pulled Sakura close to him. "I'll never forget you," he whispered in
Sakura's ears. "You'll always have a
place in my heart."
"And you will
always be in my heart," Sakura sobbed.
Her emerald eyes were glistening with tears and Syaoran couldn't stand
to his Cherry Blossom torn apart like this.
"I'll come back
to you, my Cheery Blossom. When the
blossoms open, I shall come back."
"Hurry back to
me my Little Wolf. I will wait for you
everyday in spring."
With a nod and
looking down at the floor, Syaoran turned to his plane and left, leaving Sakura
in the airport, crying on her knees.
(pretty sappy ne?)
*end flashback*
'How long has it
been Syaoran? Seven years? Eight?
No matter. I will come to you. I can't wait another day without being by
your side….. even if it's just a day…. a minute.' Sakura drifted off to sleep on the plane. She stirred as a dream started. A terrible
dream.
*dream*
Sakura was sitting in a blossom with a sword in her
hand. She looked at the sword. It looked like Syaoran's. 'Where am I?' Suddenly, the blossom started to close so it was like a cup. It then started to rain, filling the cherry
blossom cup. "Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!! Syaoran help me!" She jumped and tried to climb out, but failed. The rain poured harder and the sky turned to
a pattern of beige and red, with a ying-yang sign on it. (Ya know, those
circles that's black and with a dot on each half) A girl was laughing in the background, but Sakura didn't know it,
yet it sounded familiar. Then Sakura
used the sword to climb her way out.
Failed. The water was up to her
shoulders now. "This calls for
desperate measures." Sakura started to
swing the sword around like a maniac, stabbing holes, which started to mend
itself back together Water rose up to
her nose…… eyes………higher……... Suddenly,
there was a bright light shinning through the petals. A green light The blossom
fell open and water gushed out, leaving Sakura on her knees gasping for
air. Sakura tried to stand up, but a
magical force pushed her to stay on her knees.
A green mist was spread before her.
"Who are you? What do you want!?" As if the mist was speaking, she heard a
voice in her head.
"….Sakura….."
"Arrrgh!" Sakura
woke up startled, as well as some of the passengers.
"Miss, are you
alright?" asked the flight attendance.
"We will arrive in China shortly.
Is there anything I can get you?"
"Uh, no. Thanks anyways. Just…. a bad dream." The
stewardess smiled and nodded. Then left to assist another passenger.
"Phew," Sakura
wiped her brow. 'What did that dream
mean? A cherry blossom…. Syaoran's
sword…….. Green light…… weird sky with laughter…… evil laughter. Could that blossom be me in trouble? And Syaoran, the green light, saving
me? What could it mean? If it is Syaoran, why can't his sword save
me?' She decided to put that aside and
call Tomoyo tomorrow.
The plane landed
and Sakura stepped off in search for her luggage. And a hotel to stay in.
At the same time, Feimei was at the airport to. She was watching one of her sisters depart
to university in another province. Then an auburn, shorthaired girl caught her
eyes. 'She looks familiar….' Her thoughts were drawn to this mystery
person and found herself following her secretly. A though hit her. 'That's
right1 I knew I saw her somewhere. Syaoran kept a picture of her in his room
when I was sneaking in….' She walked
straight up to the girl, but stopped a few feet away. An idea struck her head.
'Perfect. This is great for
getting my revenge when Syaoran broke my nail.
He will face my wrath!' Feimei
rushed to the nearest phone and dialed home.
"Li resident, which
Li do you wish to speak to?" It was
Fuutie.
"Shiefa, listen
closely, and tell the others my scheme."
"Ooooh! I love schemes!"
"whisper,
whisper"
"Ooooh! Perfect!
I'll go tell the others!" She
hanged up.
"Heh heh! Perfect!
Oh you are so smart Feimei!" She
walked quickly to Sakura before she left her sight.
"Excuse me, Miss
Kinomoto!" Sakura turned around. 'She looks familiar.'
"Hi, is something
the matter, Miss…."
"Uh," 'I can't let
her know my real name.' "You can call me Lillian."
"Okay. I'm Sakura then."
'I thought
so.' "Anyways, I know this sounds
crazy, but you're ticket was drawn in the, uh," 'Think think think!' "The best
fashion designer contest!" Feimei said happily when she eyed a Fashion21*
bag. 'Thank you Kami-chan!'
"Oh? But I didn't enter any.. contest." 'Especially a fashion contest…… oh
crap. Tomoyo. She must have set me up.'
"Oh, oh, oh. Um, what is the
grand prize if I won?" 'I'm going to
kill Tomoyo if its modeling any of her designs in public!'
"You get to spend a
week in the famous designer's house and meet him!"
"Him?"
"Oh yes. He's very talented." She glanced at her watched. 'I guess Fuutie should be done by now.' "Come with me. The limo is waiting."
Sakura followed
Feimei and sat in the limo. 'Oh
well. Tomoyo, I'll get my revenge!'
The drive was long
and the night had settled in already.
They finally arrived at the estate.
It was fairly large with small forests surrounding it. The house was in a Chinese style and there
were bamboo shoots everywhere. The
night was hot, since it was summer, and Sakura fanned herself with her hand as
sweat beads slid down her face.
"Fanren, please
take Miss Kinomoto's luggage upstairs in the guest room." Immediately, the servant obeyed. Sakura eyelids dropped. She walked inside the quiet mansion and
yawned.
"You should get
some sleep Sakura. You'll meet him in
the morning. Would like a tour of the
mansion?"
"Um, no. If you
don't mind, I was planning to take a shower and go to sleep." Sakura yawned again. "The plane ride was sorta grim."
'Kuso! That leaves us less time until Syaoran comes
back from the training house.' "Of
course. Follow me to your room please."
She passed by Fuutie and asked if everything was ready.
"Yep! I told mother so she wouldn't freak. In fact I told everybody. Except for Syaoran. We have 20 minutes until he finishes his
training."
"Sugoi." She looked at the fatigue Sakura in her
yellow pink dress. 'It's almost 3 am'
Sakura thought sleepily. Her eyelids
dropped lower. "Miss Kinomoto," Feimei
said. "Let's resume to your room."
"Here we are." Feimei opened the door and Sakura walked
inside. It was green. Everything was so green. There were some green with red or yellow,
but it was basically green. On the
mahogany bed laid Sakura's suitcases.
"I'll see you in the morning.
Good night."
Sakura felt a green
aura as she entered but guessed it was the green-ness of the room. 'I must be very sleepy.' She took a quick shower and instantly fell
to sleep in her pink undergarments on the green, green bed. (o_O
okay I make her sleep in her underwear.
Remember.. it's a summer night!
:þ)
"Fuutie!" Feimei
whispered outside the room. Fuutie came
around the corner and replied, "He'll be here in ten minutes!" They giggled.
"Everything in
order?"
"Uh huh. I moved Syaoran's stuff in his den. He's very tired when I checked on him. He wouldn't be able to notice.."
"Yeah, yeah,
yeah. Great job." Feimei yawned. "Let's go to sleep."
"Agreed."
"See ya in the
morning."
"Oh yeah!"
Sleepy and tired,
Syaoran staggered to his room. He was
in his fighting clothes and sweaty. 'I'm so sleepy.' Fanren passed by.
"Go to sleep little
brother. You need it a lot." She snickered. 'You're up for a surprise.'
Syaoran showered
and came out only wearing his green boxers (how green can you get?) He was so sleepy he almost slept standing in
his shower if it wasn't for the shampoo in his eyes. Now extremely sleepy, he plopped under the covers and felt to
sleep. He felt a light pink aura but
ignored it, because when you're sleepy, you ignore everything. Even if it's your long love sleepy in her
underwear next to you. ^_~
To be
