~*!*~Sakura's P.O.V~*!*~

I heard knocking on my door the next morning at 6 a.m as I sat in my bed, reading a hong kong magazine.

"Sakura, are you awake?" I heard Syaoran ask.

"Yer, come in." I said.

"What are you doing up so early?" I asked him curiously.

"I woke up and can't get back to sleep. What about you? You look like you didn't go to sleep last night." He said.

"I didn't. I was up all night reading these magazines I found under the bed. Couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard I tried to." I replied.

"So how you feeling?" He asked.

"Not bad, I don't feel like going to school today though. Not after what happened yesterday."

"Hey relax, they won't dare torment you. I'll be right beside you to tell them to back off."

I smiled, "Thanks Syaoran."

"It's no big deal. While you're here in my house, you're part of our family and I will not let anyone put someone in my family down." He smiled back. "So, you want to give today a go?"

I nodded, "Might as well."

"Okay cool and um Sakura . . ." Syaoran started.

"Yer?"

"Do you really like wearing those long dresses that, no offense, looks like something that was in fashion in the 1800's?" He asked.

I giggled, "No, I just thought it might bring some innocence into me."

"Like I said yesterday, it's not what you wear but your personality and your personality IS innocent. So you don't like wearing them right?"

"Yer, I don't like wearing them."

Syaoran smiled, "Good."

"What's so 'good'?" I asked raising one eyebrow up.

"Cause I'm taking you shopping today and you buy as many clothes as you want. It's all on me."

I shook my head furiously. "No, I wouldn't dare use your money."

"Just think of it as a welcome to Hong Kong gift." He replied.

I thought for a second and then agreed to go shopping. "But don't kill me if I spend all your pocket money." I joked.

Syaoran raised his eyebrows, "You really think you can spend 1.5 million dollars in one day? I think you would of bought the whole damn shopping centre." He laughed as my face become all serious.

"Oh well, do you want to go to soccer training today? If so we'll leave for school now."

"But what are you going to do at school while I'm doing training?" I asked.

"I do soccer training as well. I'm in the boys team." Syaoran replied.

"Okay then, is Wei up?"

"He's been up since 5:30."

"Alright then, let's go."

~*!*~Syaoran's P.O.V~*!*~

"So I'll see you after training okay?" I asked Sakura.

"Yer sure." She replied and we went different directions.

"Nick!" I greeted as Nick walked to me and slapped me hard on the back. "What was that for?" I asked.

"Cause you're my friend." He replied.

"You asshole man!" I laughed and gave him a head lock.

"Let's go before Coach Spencer kicks the shit out of us." He suggested and we ran off onto the soccer oval.

~*!*~Sakura's P.O.V~*!*~

"Lookie here girls, the murderer decided to join us." Kiara laughed.

"Like, get away from us. We don't want to be dead so young." Leesa joked and the other girls in the soccer team laughed.

"You guys look like you're getting ready for a cheerleading session and not soccer training."

Kiara looked at Leesa and she nodded. "At least we're not U-g-l-y ugly cause we're h-o-t-t hott, u're ugly and we're hot. Come girls let's shout it out!" They chanted and I raised an eyebrow at them.

"Wow, you guys can cheer!" I said sarcastically.

"Like you can?" Leesa said raising her eyebrows.

"I'm not into shouting "go team go" like you guys and make me look like a total idiot."

At that minute the our soccer coach walks on the oval.

"Girls soccer training is cancelled." She said.

"What? Why?" Asked Leesa

"Knew to the Rap Contest that's going to be held this morning on the oval. They got to set up the microphones and stage and everything so girls, you're dismissed."

Leesa gave Kiara a high five when the coach wasn't looking.

"Awesome man. We're gonna win the girls rap contest again." ~*!*~Syaoran's P.O.V~*!*~

"Hey Sakura, you heard what's happening?" I asked as I saw her walking to her locker.

"Yer, some rap contest. Leesa and Kiara thinks they are going to win again. Bloaters." she mumbled.

"Yer, everyone thinks they will too. They have won 3 years straight."

"Wow!" She said sarcastically.

"Well come on, it's going to start any minute." I said and dragged her onto the stands on the soccer court.

~*!*~Sakura's P.O.V~*!*~

After 10 minutes, everyone from the school had gotten themselves comfortably seated and waiting for Principal Chen to talk.

"Hello everyone and welcome to the 2003 Annual Rap Contest. This contest is not just a contest, but like an audition. During this term we will be having different types of contests. Fun contests, talent quests and everything. But it's part of an audition of being a main character that has all these talents in these contests, in an up coming movie. We have judges here." He said and pointed to the three judges on the side of the soccer court. "So everyone have a fun week and good luck."

One of the judges came up to talk.

"Hello students, this first contest is the rap contest. The rules are simples. The girls contests go first and the last years winners start. They rap a bit and then if any girls in the stand would like to compete against them, they would stand up and say something back that might not be nice. Swearing is allowed." When she said that the everyone cheered. "But be sure not to overdo it. So if there is no further problems, I would like to invite Leesa and Kiara to come up and start off the girls rap comp."

I saw Leesa and Kiara walk up.

"How you doing everybody!" Leesa screamed into the microphone and I saw Syaoran raise his eyebrows up.

"Who does she think she is, some kind of superstar on stage at a concert?" I asked.

Syaoran chuckled, "I guess that's what she's imagining to be."

"Let's start this shit." Kiara said.

"What can I say I met a guy today and he seriously blown me away. But you know you got to check it, to set it. Respect any girl who can get it. Do you think I won't? Bets are on, ten to one. Come on girls lets bring it on. He's got chat up lines like Busta Rhymes so here's my shot, I wanna take the lot. Cool?" Leesa started and smiled at Kiara when none of the girls would get up and compete with her.

"What are these girls? Whimps?" I asked.

"No one has ever defeated them two. They don't wanna make a fool out of themselves."

I shook my head. "I'm not going to let them two think their top stuff. Not today, not never." I replied and stood up.

"Sakura, what are you doing? Are you crazy?" Syaoran asked.

Leesa and Kiara looked at me and waited for me to speak. I thought for a moment to think of what to say and then I smiled.

"Cool? I don't think so! He's got a low profile and a sleezy smile. Smoothe? Give me a break! I've never known a guy so fake so watch him go, checking out the girls. Strutting his stuff like he rules the world. My dad can move it better than he can. So I'm never going to make him my man!" I shouted out making Leesa and Kiara look shocked.

The crowds on the stands looked at me and started clapping.

Kiara took in a deep breathe and started her line. "Girls I've got a new baby, yeah! And he treats me like a real good lady. He's a bit too smoothe but he knows how to move his butt. Uh Huh! He's a second Brad Pitt, oh my god he's so fit. He makes me melt like butter then I stut, stut, stutter. Ideal man, baby I'm your fan. I dunno why, but you're just my kinda guy."

Kiara finished saying that and gave me a greasy.

I thought for some seconds and then I got a comeback. "Now hold on girl, he's got you in a whirl. You're not seeing straight, you're living in his world. So he treats you like a lady. Wah? Big deal! He opens the door, how good does it feel? Welcome to the girl thing way, where girls don't need a guy to make their day. You're in living a fantasy, girl can't you see? He's a no good dirt trippin sad wannabe!"

Kiara and Leesa shook their head and they both raised their hands at the judges.

"Looks like Kiara and Leesa has given up!" One of the judge announced. I gave Kiara a greasy and she slid her index finger across her throat at me.

"So could our new champion start a rap."

"No thanks, I just wanted to compete against Leesa and Kiara." I replied and sat down.

~*!*~Syaoran's P.O.V~*!*~

Sakura just revealed another talent of hers. She sure was one in a million.

I looked at the judge to see he didn't know what to say.

"Well um, does anyone want to start a rap or would they just give first prize to um."

"Sakura!" I shouted.

"Give the first prize to Sakura?" The judge continued.

I looked around and saw no other girls wanted to start the rap.

"Then the decision is final, Sakura is our new rap champion. Boy's competition will be after school."

"Are you going to try out for it?" Sakura asked me.

"Nah, I never try out for those stuff. Anyway, you were great!"

Sakura blushed a little and I chuckled.

Suddenly a male's voice boomed into the speaker.

"Sakura, you better watch your back." He said and everyone froze.

"What the fuck?" I shouted and saw a shadow running away from the court. I ran down the stairs and ran after the guy.

"Syaoran, don't go!" Sakura shouted after me and I could hear her running after me.

~*!*~Sakura's P.O.V~*!*~

Syaoran turned around to look at me.

"Sakura, stay there! I don't want you getting hurt." He ordered me and I shook my head.

"This is about me Syaoran, I don't want you getting involved. I don't want YOU to get hurt." I replied.

"Sakura, listen to me. I know what I'm doing. Go back to the soccer oval." He pointed his finger to the oval and I shook my head again. "No."

"Fine, then follow close behind."

I nodded and Syaoran started running again.

I ran after him but after a few runs, someone held a handkerchief on my mouth and pulled me to a corner.

"You little bitch! Thought you could show off huh?" Kiara and Leesa asked as the pushed me against a brick wall.

"Mark, what do you want us to do to her?" Kiara asked a guy that looked like he was 18. Mark walked into the light and I saw that it was Lucinder's brother.

"Do something as painful as what she did to Lucinder." He replied.

Kiara and Leesa nodded then took out their pocket knives.

"We'll have fun doing that." They said. Leesa slitted my arm and Kiara stabbed me in the stomache.

I screamed in pain.

~*!*~Syaoran's P.O.V~*!*~

I heard a scream and knew the voice too well. It was Sakura's scream. She sounded like she was far away but how could that be? She was right behind me.

I turned around to find her not near there.

"Sakura? SAKURA!" I called out and ran towards her scream.

~*!*~Sakura's P.O.V~*!*~

"Let's leave her and go." Leesa suggested and they nodded, walking off.

"That's only the start Sakura. I'll be around." Mark said and walked off with the girls.

I laid their on the ground, crying in pain. I held my stomache and when I looked at my hand, it was covered with blood.

Soon my vision became a blurr and I blacked out.
