Hidden Memories
Another Sakura fic…sort of
Author's Note: Ok, just forget this next typed part: Hitori, Sora, Kaju, Chiri, Suki, Mr. Komodaku, Yue, Kero, Yumeko, Nakura, Kaiju, Hiro, Kumo, Sakura, Syaoran. It's more or less a list so I don't forget! (laughs) I have a very bad memory. I know it's tough to make a good fic in such a filled up area but I hope you all read it…Review please…
"Hitori!! Wake up!" A voice yelled in her ear. Hitori's eyes opened and she saw an odd yellow creature floating in front of her.
"Good morning Kero." Hitori smiled.
"Well, at least you're easier to wake up then Sakura was." Kero sighed. Hitori got out of and did her usual morning routine. "Kero?" She said as she brushed her hair. "Today's Friday so I'm going on a field trip. Do you want to come?" Hitori asked.
"A field trip huh? Might be a good idea!" Kero smiled. Hitori finished. She packed her school bag and made room for two things: Kero and the Clow Cards. She put the cards in and Kero rested on top of them. "Ahhh…this is nice and roomy! I think I might just take a nap." Hitori zipped up her bag and headed downstairs. Sora was up, as was her Father. Her brother, Kaju, was plating everyone's breakfast.
"Good morning all." Hitori said as she sat down next to Sora.
"Good morning." They answered.
"Have you noticed?" Sora asked. Kaju gave Hitori some pancakes.
"Noticed what?" Their Father asked.
"Noticed that Hitori's happy lately. There haven't been weird weather patterns lately…cause Hitori's happy!" Sora smiled at her sister and Hitori dove into her pancakes.
"Sora, not today ok?" Kaju sighed. Hitori finished in record time and jumped up.
"I have to go." She said. "See ya later guys."
"Hitori wait." Kaju said. "Father and I made this lunch for you. Have fun at the park." Hitori took the lunch and raced out the door. Her bike was back so she peddled off to school. She got there quickly and ran up the stairs to her classroom. Just as she rounded a corner, she rammed into someone and fell on her butt.
"Ow…" Hitori muttered. She looked at who she hit. He was a handsome young man her age. He too, was on the floor. "Are you ok?" She asked him.
"Watch where you're going idiot." He glared at her. "You could have killed me!"
"Sorry…" Hitori frowned. "What's with you?"
"What's with me?" The boy blinked. "What's with you?! Running like you have something important to do, which I'm sure you don't! Now my butt is going to hurt and bus rides will suck and it's all your fault you clumsy mental little girl…"
"God, I said I'm sorry!" Hitori yelled. "Stop being a whiner and act like a man! It didn't hurt that much!" Hitori stood up and stomped into the classroom. She sat down and crossed her arms.
"What's wrong with you?" Chiri asked. "You look pretty upset."
"I am!" Hitori muttered. "Some kid yelled at me in the hall just because I ran into him. I didn't mean to!"
"Well, forget him!" Suki laughed. "You don't want a bad morning to ruin a good field trip do you?"
"No…" Hitori said slowly. "You're right." Hitori smiled.
"Hey." Chiri whispered suddenly to Hitori. "Yue slash Yukito is doing fine. He's working today." Hitori smiled. With her brother and Chiri looking after him, Yue was doing fine.
"Well, thank God for some good news." Hitori sighed. "Nothing can go wrong now!" Just then their teacher entered the room. He took role call then smiled strangely at the class.
"Class, today I have a surprise for you." Mr. Komodaku said. "Today, I have a new student. Come in Li." He called. The handsome but rude boy entered. Hitori's eyes widened. Chiri looked at her.
"That's the boy isn't it?" Chiri asked. Hitori nodded. The boy looked the class over, then saw Hitori. He glared at her and she glared back.
"Class, this is Li Hiro." Mr. Komodaku said. "And he'll be joining us, today of all days huh? Let's see…since we need groups of four and Nozomi's group has only three people, go join Nozomi, she's the girl sitting back there." Li walked over and sat down in front of Hitori.
"Lucky me, the clumsy little girl." Li muttered.
"Lucky me, the rude whiny boy." Hitori glared at him.
Later on, after the bus ride, they arrived in Sakura Park. Li had been staring at Hitori the entire time. Hitori was getting extremely upset with him. Mr. Komodaku told them to get into their groups and head off. Hitori didn't like it as much, even though the park was full of beautiful Cherry, Peach and other trees. There were many different types of flowers too.
"It's pretty, isn't it?" Suki said.
"Very." Hitori was looking at a Cherry tree.
"Nozomi, I need to speak with you alone." Li said suddenly. Hitori sighed.
"Why?" She asked.
"Just come here…" Hiro lead Hitori away from everyone to a quiet area. He stared at her for a few minutes.
"You have the cards don't you?" He said finally. Hitori wondered how he knew about the Clow Cards.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Hitori said and quickly tried to rejoin the others. Hiro grabbed her wrist and pulled her back over to him.
"You do have them!" Hiro insisted. "You're a horrible liar! Listen to you, acting like you don't know!"
"You're such an awful person…and let go of ME!" Hitori kicked Hiro as hard as she could right in the knee. Hiro let go and Hitori backed away from him.
"Listen, don't ever kick me again." Hiro glared at her. "So you don't want to give up the Clow Cards huh?" Hiro laughed. Neither he nor Hitori noticed the glow coming from Hitori's backpack. "Then I guess I'll have to take them!" Hiro lunged at Hitori. Hitori braced herself but he never hit her. Hitori saw someone had a hold on his shirt. It was Li Syaoran.
"I wouldn't recommend trying that." Sakura, who was standing next to him, frowned. "Next time you might get hurt." Syaoran pulled Hiro to him and looked him in the eye. Hiro looked scared.
"If I ever see you even giving Hitori a funny look…" Syaoran moved to the side a bit, so that Hiro could see his sword. Hiro swallowed.
"Listen, I need to get those cards." Hiro muttered. "If I don't, my mom will kill me!"
"Oh, is that so?" Kero flew out of Hitori's backpack and stopped right in front of Hiro's face. "I doubt that since very few people know about the Clow Cards."
"It's true!" Hiro insisted. "My mother is a part of the Li family, which has protected—" But Hiro stopped talking as Syaoran suddenly yanked him even closer.
"THE Li family?" Syaoran asked. "In Hong Kong?"
"Y-Yeah…" Hiro nodded. "My name is Li Hiro. M-My mom said we have to get the Clow Cards back…"
"Hm…" Syaoran laughed, though it wasn't a pleasant laugh. "Then that makes me your ancestor. My name is Li Syaoran." Hiro stared at Syaoran then shook his head.
"No, you aren't." Hiro continued to stare. "You can't be because Syaoran disappeared after a trip to see his girlfriend Sakura."
"I'm Sakura." Sakura got a little closer to Hiro, examining him. "You know, I can see some resemblance." Sakura giggled. "If he wasn't such a jerk, he'd be kind of cute!"
"Heh, so there's a new brat in town." Kero laughed.
"I'm not a brat!" Hiro shouted.
"Whatever…" Kero looked from Syaoran to Hiro. "You two act so alike, you can tell you're related. If there's a brat in the family, there's bound to be more."
"I'm not a brat!" Both Syaoran and Hiro shouted. Even Hitori laughed this time.
"Well, anyway…" Hitori smiled at Hiro. "With Syaoran, Sakura and Kero with me, you can't touch the Clow Cards so there. Syaoran, you can let him go." Syaoran let go of Hiro's shirt. Hiro stood by Hitori, glaring at Syaoran.
"You know, the way mother was always going on about Syaoran, I figured he'd be a little different. Like smart or something." Hiro grabbed Hitori's backpack and began to run off.
"Hey!" Hitori yelled. "Give that back!" She made a grab for it but he jumped back and she hit the ground.
"Ha!" Hiro grinned and took the cards out of her pack. "A little girl like you who can't even protect the cards on her own shouldn't have them!" Hitori glared at him.
"That's it!" Hitori held her hand up. A blue ball of fire appeared in her hand and shot out at Hiro. Hiro ran from it but it still hit him in the back. It didn't burn him though, instead it caused him to freeze.
"What the…?" Kero stared at Hitori. "I haven't seen that kinda magic in years."
"I-I-I…" Hitori looked down. "I just…"
"That was amazing Hitori." Sakura smiled and walked over to Hiro's frozen body. She pulled the cards from him and gave them back to Hitori.
"I don't think I've ever seen magic like that." Syaoran smiled. "I'm glad though that you stopped him without hurting him. I remember my mother was very strict."
"Well…" Hitori looked ashamed. "I-I better restore him…" Hitori raised her arm again and a red ball of light flew from her and hit Hiro. Hiro was instantly on his feet.
"W-w-w-w-w-w-what was that?!" Hiro was incredibly pale. "It felt like ice and I just couldn't move…"
"I'm good with magic." Hitori said sadly. "Don't tell anyone that…everyone already thinks I'm a witch since when I was little I couldn't control my powers and I'd set things on fire."
"Oh…" Hiro looked down. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that."
"It's ok…" Hitori managed a smile. "Syaoran says strict parents run in the Li family."
"Hitori!! Hitori, Hiro! Where'd you go?!" Chiri yelled. Hitori sighed.
"Ah, we have been gone awhile." Hitori turned to Syaoran and Sakura. "Better get back into card form you know." Syaoran and Sakura nodded and turned into wisps of light that flew right into Hitori's hand. Hitori handed the cards to Kero, who flew back into her bag.
"Please don't tell anyone Li." Hitori sighed. "You may be a rude whiny baby but I hope you'd keep a promise."
"I didn't promise anything." Hiro grinned. "If I wanted, I could tell everyone what you just did."
"Do that and Syaoran will kick your ass." Hitori laughed at the look on Hiro's face. "Well, better get back to the others." The two walked back to Chiri and Suki. But no one was there. In fact, the entire park was empty.
"Where is everyone?!" Hitori gasped. Kero flew back out of Hitori's bag and handed her the cards.
"You're going to need these…" Kero said grimly. "I can sense a card."
Author's Note: Mwhahahahahaaaaaa! A cliffhanger! I am evil. Guess which card it is!
