The Ultimate Power; Uncontrolled
A dark, tall figure slowly dragged his feet through the dark of the night. He stumbled and winced at the pain that shot trough his leg, tired of all the running and walking he'd been doing for the past few days. Clutching at the cramp in his side, he kept on going. He had to get away...
He squinted his eyes, trying to see through the haze that clouded his brain. Though the haze, he saw a bright pink light that seemed to sparkle like a last hope. Desperate, he trudged and dragged himself forward towards the pink light, his breathing raspy and heavy.
Finally the pink light seemed within arms reach. He stretched a heavy hand to it as he took a step forward. But as he did so, he felt something catch his foot and he stumbled forward. He felt another sharp pain and then all went black.
A 22 year old Sakura Kinomoto sat at her desk doing her homework while instant messaging her best friend Tomoyo Daidoji who was in England with her fiancé Eriol Hiiragizawa. She was in college, as was Sakura, studying to be a fashion designer. Big surprise. Although Sakura was the most powerful sorceress in the world, or was far as she knew, being the mistress of the Sakura cards did nothing much to protect her economic future. So she was staying at her home with her father while she went to the local college. She still wasn't sure what kind of career to look into yet, and she was sure the magical arts wouldn't be an option.
But just thinking about the magical arts reminded her of her younger days as a Cardcaptor. And of course, she couldn't remember her times as a Cardcaptor without remembering him. She sighed heavily. -Syaoran... What happened? I wonder, where are you now? You could be anywhere. Syaoran, you and I... We both knew we were soul mates... But what happened? One day you were talking over the phone about going to the elders about canceling your arranged marriage with Meiling, the next thing I knew I hadn't talked to you in a week. Then a week turned into a month and a month turned into a year. It's been four years now since I've heard anything about you. Four years since the last time I talked to you. Or Meiling. What happened while you were in Hong Kong these past 6 years? We were 16 when you went back. You didn't want to leave, but you and Meiling had to go back to try to convince the elders to cancel the wedding which was arranged to be held before you became Leader of the Li clan. You and Meiling managed to convince the elders to let you become leader before then, but only because Yelan (Syaoran's Mother) backed you two up. But even with her backing, you two couldn't convince the elders to cancel the wedding. That was the last thing that you talked to me about, that is, managing to avoid the wedding and becoming Leader of the Li clan. Not a word about you, or how you have been doing, not even about the whole of the Li clan has reached my ears since. What happened to you, Syaoran? Why haven't you come back to me yet? I miss you so much...- She sighed and closed her eyes, trying to prevent the tears from falling again. -I wish you were here... But who am I kidding? You're never coming back...- A single tear fell from her eyes. But that was all she would allow. She had cried too much as it is... Angrily, she wiped the tear away. There was no point in living in her past dreams. And that's all they seemed to her now, mere dreams. She had to move on...
Her eyes snapped open, and it was then that she felt a familiar aura. -No. It couldn't be...- The familiar green aura was close, but weak. And it seemed darker too. Sakura could tell by the feel of the aura that whoever owned it, was near unconsciousness. She stood up quickly, her chair falling the floor with a crash. If she wasn't mistaken, the aura was headed straight towards her front door. As the aura drew closer, her heart pounded faster in her chest. -No. It's not possible. After all these years.. He couldn't possibly come back.- But there was no denying it. She'd recognize that aura anywhere. Li Syaoran was back in Japan. It had to be him. After all these years, he was back. She then felt the aura weaken so that now she could barely tell it was right on her front step. That could only mean he lost consciousness.
She ran to her door, which flew open by her hand, and she jumped down the stairs. Her front door magically opened by her will, but she didn't stop to think how she did it. Nor did it even cross her mind.
She only stopped to stare at the lifeless heap. The evidence was at her feet. Li Syaoran was back in Japan, soaked from the rain and unconscious at her doorstep.
Please let me know what you think about this fic so far and let me know if I should continue or not. Many thanks!! ~Inferna~
