Misery


Chapter 4: A new beginning


Syaoran's alarm clock rang in his ears. "Why, does today have to be a school day?" Syaoran asked himself. Syaoran got out of his bed, took a shower, put his new uniform on (Which made him look dangerous, but still looked good). Syaoran got a least 20 calls from his sisters asking How the apartment was Or how the plane trip was. "Excuse me sir Syaoran here an extra key to your apartment," Said the lady at the desk on the first floor. Syaoran lived on the 8th floor. Syaoran took the key and began walking to the school that was about 2 blocks away.

'Look at all these fools,' Syaoran thought. "Okay ready girls!" Said a girl with amber hair and emerald-green eyes. A song started. it was can't get you out of my head: Kyile Minogue. The cheerleader started to dance. while a blue haired boy and Beautiful raven haired girl were watching on the bench. Syaoran walked to the office to get his card.


At the office...
"Oh, Syaoran Li, it's so nice to meet finally." Said the fat female woman. "My name is Kiti Migoge." She said politely. Syaoran looked at her then bowed politely. "Syaoran I'm so sorry about your lost, but you'll feel better once you talk to someone." Miss Migoge said with a sad look on her face. "There's nothing to talk about Migoge." Syaoran said coldly. Finally the first words that came out of his mouth since Shen died. "Okay but if you want to talk I can make you an appointment." She said sitting back down. "Where's my first class?" Syaoran said flipping his braid back from his shoulder. "Well, then come with me then." She said now getting up.
At classroom 125...
"Sakura have you seen the new transfer student?" Asked the raven haired beauty, Tomoyo. "No, I haven't," Sakura Kinomoto answered back. "Well, I heard his girlfriend died and then his almost killed someone and he doesn't talk." Said a cute blue haired boy named Eriol. "Okay class I would like you to meet are new transfer student, Syaoran Li." Said Mr. Tread. Syaoran walked in the classroom with his long braid dancing in the wind behind him. "Okay Syaoran sit in the third row by the window." Syaoran walked over there to his seat. He could hear the students whispering gossip to each other about him.
Later on that day at lunch time Syaoran went in the back of the school. He didn't like crowds like he did before Shen left. Syaoran always felt so a lost and empty without Shen he loved her that much. Eriol was looking for Syaoran to see if the rumor about him were true so he went in the back of the school. "Hi Syaoran!" Eriol called walking over to Syaoran. Syaoran closed his locket that was shaped like a star that had a picture of Shen that summer when they met. Syaoran looked at him then put locket back in his shirt. "Can I sit with you?" Eriol asked.

Syaoran did a small nod and Eriol sat next to him. "I was wondering all the rumors in the school say that you can't talk, is it true?" He asked. Syaoran got up and left. Eriol was left sitting alone. "Mmm . . . just like I thought." Eriol said with his serious voice.

Syaoran walked to some cafe called Read them, then weep It was a small cafe on a conner. Syaoran opened the door and sat the counter the seat that he was sitting in was some old fashion one it was in neat condition. "What well it be?" Said the waiter. "Root beer with vanilla cream," Syaoran said resting his head on his hand.

"Your not from around here are you?" The waiter asked. "No." Syaoran said plainly. "My name is Joe Icemaker what yours," He asked. Syaoran lifted up his head by the name of Icemaker. "Did you say Icemaker?" He asked. "Yeah" He said looking confused. "Your Icemaker? you have a 10-year-old daughter and one of them owns The club in Hong Kong called Icemaker?" Said Syaoran taking his drink that he ordered from his hand. "Yeah, how do you know that?" Joe asked wiping a wet glass. "Your daughter is the second most richest person in Hong Kong." Syaoran taking his wallet out. "That's my girl." Joe said with a proud grin. "Here," Syaoran side giving him 99 yen. "No, your new here, it's on the house," He said. "I'll see you later," Syaoran said walking out the door heading back to school.


By the end of the day Syaoran felt like a dead flower, He was walking home slowly. Then a sweet breeze came his way making the Cherry blossoms with the gold design fly pass him. "Man this guy is so slow." Tomoyo said recording the whole thing.

"Tomoyo, Eriol, why are we following him?" Sakura asked coming up from behind them. "Shhhh," Eriol and Tomoyo said. "Shit, he's on the move!" said Tomoyo rushing off. Sakura, Tomoyo, and Eriol were following Syaoran to his apartment to see if the rumors were true and maybe get there story in the school newspaper. Syaoran walked up to his apartment and locked the door which had 9 locks (That's a a lot of locks).

"Okay Eriol, you go knock on the door," Sakura said pushing Eriol to the door. "No, Why do I have to do it?" Eriol complained. "I'll do it then," Said Tomoyo bravely. Tomoyo walked up to the door and knocked about three times.

Syaoran unlocked the nine locks and opened the door. Sakura and Tomoyo froze at the sight of Syaoran's built body. "What" He said. "Um . . .can I interview you Syaoran Li?" Tomoyo asked putting the camera back in her hand. "No." He said plainly then shutting the door.
"Are you two mad!? He won't talk to girls." Eriol said walking up to Tomoyo. "Why?" Sakura asked. "Well, the daily newspaper came today and well some girl name; Shen died about a month ago and I think I see Syaoran in the picture a little." Eriol said showing them a newspaper clipping of Syaoran & Shen's mother. "Yep that's him all right!" Tomoyo said brightly. "I think he was dating her or something" He said. "Now this well be good for the newspaper." Tomoyo said with glittering eyes. "Guys I don't think we should do this, I mean he was hurt," Sakura said sadly.


Later on that night at Syaoran's apartment...


"No, Shen please wait don't go!" Syaoran said in his sleep turning over in his bed covered in sweat.


Dream . . .

"Syaoran help me," Yelled Shen as he was being taking away by this man who was half decaded. "SHEN!" Syaoran yelled running. Shen was being swallow by pure darkness. "NO!"Syaoran yelled falling on his knees. "You left me to die Syaoran," Said Shen hung up by chains in a Shrine entrance. "No, that's not true, Shen," Syaoran said with tears rolling down his face. Then Shen caught on fire. Shen's painful screams was killing his soul.


"Shen, no!" Syaoran said waking up a 7:30am in the morning. "Why?" Syaoran said stroking his hand in his long hair. Syaoran walked to class with his head down looking worried if the nightmare was true. What if Shen was locked in some hell pit and he couldn't save her? What if it was his fault that she died. "Hey Syaoran!" Sakura said cheerfully at Syaoran. Syaoran looked at Sakura. 'This girl has magic I can feel it and the Clow card have a new power.' Syaoran thought to himself.


Later on at gym class the whole class was practicing on gymnastics. Syaoran chuckled. "Is there something funny, Syaoran." Asked Mr. Terada. "Maybe." He answered back. The whole class looked at Syaoran, that was I first word the whole class have ever heard from his mouth. "Anyway, class who would like to go first?" Mr. Terada said.

"Okay, Sakura you first," Said Mr. Terada. Sakura got a running start and did a front flip and then two back flips then landed with a split. Syaoran walked over to the balancing beam to train while the timing was good. Students applauded. Syaoran wrapped a blind fold around his eyes and jumped on the beam. One of the students saw what he was doing and the other students looked Syaoran's way. Syaoran was on his hands doing a walking hand stand then he flipped over and stood up. Syaoran turned around and did a back flip landing on the very edge of the beam. "Wow, he's good." Tomoyo and Eriol said in unison. Syaoran did a front flip and then ran off the beam with a back hand toss. Syaoran took off the blind fold and saw that the students were watching him. "Good job, Syaoran." Said Mr. Terada appaulding. "Thanks." Syaoran muttered quietly.


Later on that same day Sakura decided to take her daily afternoon walk. "I wonder why that Syaoran guy is so closed up, what's there to hide?" Sakura asked herself. Up ahead Syaoran was on the very top of the swing balancing on one of his hands. Sakura looked shocked at what he was doing that was the second time she saw his do that. Syaoran opened his eyes then flipped off the top of the swings. "Syaoran wait!" Sakura said looking at him walking pass her. Syaoran turned his head half way and his eye was looking right at her. "Why are you so sad?" She asked. Syaoran turned his head back around and kept walking leaving Sakura behind him. Eriol was waiting for him at his apartment. "Hey Syaoran!" Said Eriol.

Syaoran just came from a magic-shop to pick up something. "What do you want?" Syaoran said opening the door. "Can I come in?" Eriol asked. Syaoran looked at him for a minute. Syaoran rolled his eyes and opened the door a little more. Eriol had to shut the door behind him. "Nice place you got here," Said Eriol. Syaoran walked in his kitchen and started to make tea. When Syaoran was looking in the pot he saw Shen. Syaoran turned away and walked in to the other room. "Who's she?" Eriol asked pointing to a picture of Shen. "Her name is Shen," Syaoran answered sitting down. "Is she your sister?" He asked. "No, she was my girlfriend." Syaoran said walking over to Eriol and picking up the picture. The red light on Syaoran's answering machine was blinking off and on. "You have two new message" Said the machine. "First message.' It said. "Hey, Syaoran it's me Tanki, where are you I called your cell phone but you didn't answer and then your mother tells me you went to Japan what is with you man, call me when you can bye!"

"Second message," "Hello Syaoran," Syaoran stopped dead in his tracks, his heart was beating wildly with anger at the sound of the voice. "Miss me? I hope you and your nightmares are giving you the message, Shen's with me, Oh and if you want to see her you have to come and get me." Meloshu laughed. "End of messages" Syaoran's body felt weak and heavy. "Who was that?" Eriol asked walking up to Syaoran. Syaoran fell on his knees and started to breath very hard. "Syaoran are you okay?" Said Eriol putting his hand on his back. Syaoran was seeing Shen in his head he could feel her body, It was hurting very badly. "Syaoran tell me what going on?" Eriol said. Syaoran stood up in front of Eriol.

"I'll tell you but you can't tell anyone else okay" He said walking back in the kitchen for the tea. "So what's going on, Syaoran?" Eriol said picking up his tea. "Two months ago Shen was killed, by her old boyfriend Meloshu, My mother didn't want me around Shen when she found out the I was in love with her," Syaoran began. "So you were in love with her?" Eriol asked looking confused. "Yes, I meet her in my old school in Hong Kong, She was the most beautiful woman I have ever seen, I wanted her to be with me all the time but I couldn't, Shen was busy all the time but she always found way for are relationship to last," Syaoran said taking off the star necklace and showed it to Eriol.

"I was just coming from a cousin's house when I felt there was something wrong," He said. "Yes, Shen had magic and so do I but when I got there Shen was stabbed in the heart. Then I don't remember much, I do remember a blinding dark power in me that was taking me, and me flying looking for Meloshu and then I woke up the next morning feeling sick," Syaoran said taking a sip of his tea. "Where you at her funeral?" He asked. "Yes, that was the last time I saw her, but now I see her every where even in my nightmares, I keep seeing Shen being burned in front of my eyes." Syaoran said. "You been through a lot these last few months." Eriol said feeling sorry for him. "Yes, and now I'm trying to summon that same dark power, I can feel it but I can't wake it up" Syaoran said. "No, you don't want to do that, You'll kill yourself." Eriol said. "Why not, he killed the only person I loved in my whole life, he took her away from me, why shouldn't I kill him?" Syaoran said with anger in the tone of his voice. "Maybe it's best you learn what you know about this guy before you go you killing mode." Eriol said standing up. "Well, I have to go I have a date tonight, I'll see you around." Eriol said picking up his school bag and heading straight for the door. "Remember Eriol, You tell and I'll kill you."He said with that cold look on his face.


Later on that night Syaoran was moving from left to right in his bedHe was dreaming:

Syaoran was at a festival with Japanese drums beating in his ears. He saw Shen naked hung by the neck and a man with a dragon tattoo on his back was beginning to burn her body. Syaoran stood in shock looking at her being burned. then he saw a girl in a pink Kimono with Emerald green eyes looking at him in a tree.

Syaoran woke up covered in sweat and shaking like a leaf. "Where is she?" Syaoran said looking at the ring that he was wearing when Shen was still alive.
