DISCLAIMER: I do NOT by ANY reason own Cardcaptor Sakura! Okay? I'm very sad that I don't! So please do not say that I do! Thanks a bunch people I love you all!!!

My note: Hi everyone. I know that some of you may be mad at me and I would understand why. I have discontinued my other fic called "Just Words" because I was so sad at what I poor story it looked like compared to other stories. If you for any chance want me to continue it please e-mail me or review for it. I hope this story turn out to be better than that story. If you're reading this note then thank you. Now on to the story!!!!

Summery: Sakura and Syaoran confessed their Love for one another. But then urgent matters came up and Syaoran had to return to Hong Kong. It's been 8 long years since then. Sakura has changed into a gangster with all her friends. But what's this? Meilin comes back for an unexpected visit? Does she bring bad news? Has Syaoran Moved on??

Chapter 1: Remembering the Past

Everyone in the gym stared at a girl the age of 21 punching with all her might at a punching bag. They all stayed far away from her. For they could all see flames in her beautiful emerald eyes.

"Letting out some anger eh? Sakura-chan?" Said a member of the audience who was not afraid.

"Hai. What else would I let out?" Came her cold reply.

"You could at least let me take a round at the bag before it breaks."

Sakura looked down. Sand was starting to build into a pile on the ground.

"Oh my gosh! Did I do that.eh eh sorry Tomoyo go ahead and beat the rest of the sand out. I'll pay for the bag this time."

"Okay thanks Sakura! I owe ya one!" Tomoyo said.

"No problem! I'm going to go listen to music. You know where I'll be." Sakura said waving an arm behind her back.

"Okay and remember we have to meet the gang at the mall for my weekly spree at 12 and DON'T be late!"

"Yeah, yeah! I'm only 5 minutes late at the most and you guys act like its 30 minutes" Sakura mumbled.

~Insides the changing area~

*Sakura is slumped again a wall in the corner with a black bag *

Sakura pulled out a black notebook from the bag and opened it to a clean page. While grabbing at her disc man with the other hand. The black notebook was decorated with white out skulls and "Do not open" on it. Sakura leaned farther down the cold wall trying to get comfy before writing down private memories in the notebook. The book was Sakura's past memories. After she wrote them down she tried to forget them. Music helped with that. All of a sudden a song played that Sakura thought sounds like her life.

"Wont someone tell me what is happing to me

Why am I so misunderstood why can't they see

Now I'm caught between the devil and the angel that I use to be."

~*Flashback~*

"Sakura.what happened to you?"

"What do you mean?"

"Your clothes, your attitude."

"What about them?"

"Your clothes are black or other dark colors instead of the perky bright colors they were. Now you also have an attitude that you didn't have before, why are you starting to have one now?"

"Tomoyo The old genki Sakura is gone. You can either accept me as I am now or not. It's up to you."

"Sakura! You no that it is not possible for me to forget you! We've been best friends since grade 4 and we're cousins! I couldn't forget you if I tried!"

"So the answer you choose is still not clear to me."

"I don't want to loose you Sakura demo I also don't want you to be like this. I need time to think. I will tell you by tomorrow.

~*End of flashback~*

"They say I'll understand it all in good time

But age ain't nothing but a number in my mind

I'm going crazy with this push me pull me

Caught between wrong and right"

~*Flashback again~*

Sakura I have your answer. I will embrace the new you with my arms wide open. But you have to make a deal with me."

"Okay what?"

"I get to make your clothes of course. I get to tape you in action. And I get to join your gang."

~How could she no about my gang?!?! It was only an idea that I told Eriol about. Oh no I bet Eriol told everyone. Him and his big mouth~(a/n Sakura was only nice to Eriol in this fic. Her and Tomoyo were close but Sakura talked to Eriol more. Still confused then tell me and I'll sort if out for you^_^)

"Yes Sakura Eriol did tell me about your gang idea. Along with Chiharu, Yamazaki, Rika, and Naoko."

"I knew he would" Sakura mumbled.

"I accept your deal but under 1 condition."

"Yes?"

"You can't quit no matter what the consequences are, life or death."

"Okay then I accept."

~*End flashback~*

~*Start of a new flashback~*

Why wont you tell me father!?!? Do you think I am not strong enough to handle the news? You know that I can!! You know that I can handle whatever you can throw at me!"

"No it's not that Sakura. It's just that I think you're still too young at the age of 19 to know how your mother really died. I promise I will tell you when your 22. The most I can tell you is that it is gang related."

"So let me get this straight. I'm 19 years old and you think I wont be able to handle mothers death? So you plan on telling me when I'm 22!?!? Your crazy! What if something happens by then!?!?"

"Yes honey I think you should know what happened at the age of 22. If something happens to me by your twenty-second birthday then I have a letter left to you explaining how she died. Do not think that I am not prepared."

~*End flashback~*

Sensing someone standing behind her Sakura turned around quickly.

"I see your senses have improved Sakura"

I don't know weather to continue or not. Nah.wait. Fine you guys win on I go!

"Meiling! How have you been!?!?" Sakura said happily.

"I've been fine Sakura, oh you might want to turn off your music." Meilin said pointing to the disc man. "Here I'll do it for you. I wanna see what you listen to anyway."

"Wait Meilin!" Sakura tried.

Too late. Meilin had the disc man in her grasp and was putting on the headphones.

~Who the heck does she think she is!? Tomoyo doesn't even know what I listen to. Not even Eriol. I have to get it back!"

Meilin Pov

~Hm. I wonder what Sakura listens to after all these years..~

I wanna give in to the woman in me

I wanna be someone they don't want me to be

The moral of the story is I got no choice

I must not.

Before the song could finish Sakura had pressed off.

"Sakura! I wanted to hear the song! It had good lyrics and a good beat!" I complained.

"No one listens to my music, got it? Not even Tomoyo knows what I listen to." Sakura said to me coldly.

~Hm. That's strange just a minute ago she was happy and cheery and I listen to some of her music and she goes crazy. Something is not right.~

Normal Pov

"So Sakura long time no see! How have you been?" Meilin said pushing her thoughts aside.

"Fine"

"Not very talkative! Bet your wondering how I knew where you were."

"No I could really care less"

"Ouch. okay so moving on we haven't seen each other in so long. how many years.10, 20?"

Sakura laughed. " No Meilin only 8 years. Is Syaoran here? Because I'm not sure if I want him to see me like this. How have you been I forgot to ask you how you've been. Also I know this is sudden but will you join my gang?" Sakura said forgetting the music incident.

"Sakura!!! You have a gang?! When did it start? Of course I'll join! No Syaoran is not here. He's um busy with a friend. Yea a friend!" Meilin said the last part nervously.

Sakura had gone from being a dense little girl to one the smartest girls in high school. There was no need for her to go to a college. She could get any job she wanted. Along with her friends.

~What a liar I know that's not the truth but I'll ask her later to tell me the truth.~

"Well to answer your question the gang started about 5 years ago. The members are me, Tomoyo, Eriol, Rika, Chiharu, Yamazaki,(a/n Is that his real name? Please tell me if it is and I'll dedicate the next chapter to you. Also could you tell me what his real name is?) and Naoko. Then add you. I plan to keep this gang small and it should only have people that are close to me in it. (Should I have Touya in the gang? Vote!!!) I have to change right now and then meet everyone at the mall so wait here."

Sakura walked in the changing room and walked out. Even though she was in a gang you couldn't tell by the clothes she wore. Sakura came out a minute later in a black cami spaghetti strap and blue jeans that flared a little. Meilin was wearing a red tank top with a black dragon on it and flare blue jeans.

"Why are we meeting at the mall?"

"Tomoyo still hasn't grown out of shopping even though she's in a gang so we let her go shopping with all of us once a week. It's usually fun. Last time the we push over a display of mannequins( you those things that wear the clothes to show them off-_-'') it was funny cause the store manager turned red." Sakura laughed remembering the moment.

"Sakura how are we going to get to the mall. If my memory is still accurate the n the mall is a good 20 minutes away in a car. If we walk it would take longer."

"Easy Meilin we take my bike."

"Bike? You own a bike now to? Dang sakura you've changed. I like it! Sometime I wanna fight you okay?"

"Sure Meilin"

"Yay!" Meilin does a little dance while hopping on the motorcycle behind Sakura.

"Here" Sakura handed Meilin a red helmet. "Keep it"

"Cool thanks!"

"No problem."

Sakura revved up the bike and they were off.5 minutes later they came to a stop in front of a red light. Sakura glared at the light with the glare Syaoran had taught her.

"So Meilin this light take 5 minutes to change I have a question for you."

"Okay shoot"

"Back in the gym you said Syaoran was busy you said it nervously now you can tell me the truth or get hurt."

"Dang.There are definitely some qualities I wish you still had. Ok fine I was lying."

"Let me guess.. Syaoran has moved on but you don't think I'm big enough to handle it?"

"Yes he has moved on he's had a girlfriend of 2 years. Yes I did think you were big enough to handle it but I didn't know how to say it. I'm also here on a mission though."

"Okay what mission?"

I"I need to bring you back to Hong Kong with me. Yelan and I do not like this girl that Syaoran pick. He is going to ask her next week to marry him. We think if he saw you he would fall in love again."

"Meilin you cannot force Syaoran to marry me! If he is truly happy with this girl than I think that you should let him marry her! I'm sorry to hear about your problem."

"But there is another reason we want you to come also. It would be perfect now because you already have a gang. Yelan would like you and some friends to come and stop this gang that are killing people at random. We all think that either Syaoran or his girlfriend are their next victim."

"Okay Meilin we'll check it over with the gang and if they want it then we will go. As a gang to stop these people."

"Thank you Sakura. Oh by the way the light is green"

With that Sakura and Meilin took off to the mall.

Meilin Pov

~I don't know if I should tell sakura that her ex-Boyfriend is in the gang or not. Not even Syaoran knows that he's in it.~

What's this Sakura had a boyfriend before Syaoran?? What will happen? Will the gang go to Hong Kong??

Everyone could you please help me? I need to know the names of Syaoran's sisters. Also I need a girls name-_-''' I know this is not the best story that I why I am asking for only 3 review. Thanks everyone! Flames are welcome! Just don't be so harsh that I'll cry!!
