Rejected in Life

Chapter 1- Dying Love

The cold air of the coming winter was coming sooner than expected. The trees had started to change colors from bright green to reds, yellows, browns, pinks and other bright colors in an enchanting beautiful forest. A big house considered a castle stood in the center of the dense forest, hidden from everyone else's view. There, a beautiful woman with the appearance of a queen was in bed, ill and soon would bring a child into the world. Her tired eyes were half open waiting patiently for the love of her life to come, she winked a couple of times and kept looking at the same place outside the window. The door opened slowly making a 'creek' sound, and just as slowly it was also closed. The white room appeared to be much bigger than it actually was, a tall man with chestnut messy hair and deep black eyes was at the door, the woman looked at him and smiled sweetly. He walked to her, his face expressionless, "I knew you'd come" she said softly but her voice echoed a little in the room. The white surroundings of the room made her stand out because of her long black hair and reddish-brown colored eyes. Her face was pale and she was weak, she had gotten some kind of cancer or disease around the time she got pregnant. "I want to see my children, I don't think I will last long too long in this world" she said slowly and calmly, with her sweet eager yet calm voice. "How did this happen?" he asked backing down the feeling to cry. "The doctors said that my baby might have awoken the cancer inside me, that it was something I had since birth" she said with a calming voice. "Call them please" she pleaded, then a feeling of pain swept over her. She began to scream even when she tried not to, then a doctor came in the room and sat next to her. "It's time" he said, and called another doctor and a nurse to help.

Three hours passed, the man stood there next to her, holding her soft pale and warm hand. He saw as the life of the woman he loved was slipping away slowly, she was suffering because of that child that would be his flesh and blood. As she suffered, the pain made her tighten her grip every once in a while. After that long time that seemed like minutes to the man, the baby was born, it had been a difficult birth and even the child was weak, and very small. The woman held her baby for about 2 minutes before the doctors took the baby for examination, the man refused to see the child. He stood with his wife "I love you" she said softly, "And I love you" he told her and gave her a passionate kiss. As she fell asleep, he stood up, and saw the blood tainted sheets, his eyes filled with rage, there was too much blood. Blood didn't look good in the white as snow room, the sun was going down, and the last of the sun shined on the woman's face, the movement of her lungs going up and down calmed him a little.

After walking away from her room, and directing himself downstairs, he ordered his two sons to follow him. "But..I wanted to..." the younger son started saying, "Syaoran, no buts just follow me now, and no more questions from neither of you" the man said touching the sword he carried in his left side of the pants. The gold of the sword glittered light all over the place until it was hid again under his black coat. "Stupid" Syaoran heard his brother say, it was hard being 12 and not been able to act like a normal kid, but they didn't understand that, the only person who did was his mother. But Syaoran still obeyed his father's orders and followed close behind. They went out the big wooden doors and Syaoran had one last look before the doors closed by the magic of his father.

Syaoran watched behind as they left the house without a word without even a reason. He had waited about 8 months to see his mother again but in the end he didn't see her. The view to the house disappeared within seconds. Syaoran brushed his chestnut hair back with his right hand and looking outside he saw something he thought he would forget in a moment. Even when the chariot was going fast, he saw in slow motion as a beautiful girl about his age walked by in the opposite direction. Her bright green eyes made a spell on him, he saw as the girl in the pink dress held her hat so it wouldn't fly away, and how she smiled. Then he came back to reality and saw his brother Zhao looking at him. His black eyes gave fear to Syaoran sometimes, he always had an expressionless face, and he was the best at everything, as well as father's favorite. The chariot went on and on, to the place they knew as 'Home'.
