Dear Diary,
It was a year today that the 'thing' as I like to call it happened. Life as I know it has changed so much. I'm not even allowed to write letters home under my new name in case our mail gets intercepted. I can't stop thinking of my dad and Tomoyo and all my other friends. But one in particular. Take a guess who? I don't know if he even knows yet... Well I'll write more later. I'm not exactly feeling happy.
Love always
Sakura paused. It had been exactly a year since she had really written or even uttered her own name. Her real name. She had been going by Samantha Brown ever since she arrived. Samantha had two little sisters and had to learn english fast. But Sakura had to little new friends and disliked using english.
"Sam! Sam your FBI agent is on the phone!"
"The one covering my case?"
"Yes. Pick it up."
Sakura quickly scribbled down her real name and went to the nearest phone.
"Hello? Kinomoto speaking."
"Sakura you've been told to use the name SAMANTHA. Use it."
"And who are you?"
"I'm your new agent. Jason."
"Why have I had 10 new agents in a year? Tell me the truth."
"Well...uh...You see..."
"Just say it. I can handle the truth."
"Yaoi's friends. You've been told that he was a well wanted murderer?"
"Yoai? Yeah...Thats why the FBI is on the case. Didn't he murder mostly americans?"
"Oh a lot more than you can imagine. Anyways there has to be one of them in the department. The people covering your cases keep being murdered. We wanted to keep it from you but you do need to know. We fear that they may find your location. Stay low. In 2 months we will assign you to a new state."
"Why! I'm just starting to fit in!"
This was a lie of course. Sakura kept to herself and didn't allow herself to make new friends. She used this as an excuse. Who would want to move to a new place after a year and have to get settled again.
"Doesn't matter. The fact is you have to stay alive."
"The only reason you want me alive is so I can come forward as a witness in this STUPID CASE!!!"
"Sakura you're making a big deal out of this."
"IT - IS - A - BIG - DEAL"
"Stop it. Now I will contact you in two days to let you know you're new residence."
"I don't care."
"You should. Now remember what I've said. Take care."
Sakura hung up. She hated the FBI. She was nothing more than a reason to convict a murderer. If he hadn't been a mass murderer and had only murdered Touya she'd be dead and they wouldn't care.
This gave Sakura an idea.
"I don't care what they think."
"Geez Sakura! They're only trying to protect you."
"You know Kero, I appreciate you coming and all but I just want to handle this in my own way. I know you're worried and I'm glad SOMEONE is. But I just need to handle them myself. ok?"
"Sure. What are you going to do?"
"Oh... Thats my secret. I'll tell you once I've done it."
Sakura sat down at her desk again.
Dear Tomoyo.
I'm not supposed to be writing. The FBI would probably kill me if they saw me mailing this letter. But you deserve to know whats happening.
My life in my new country has been incredably stupid. I hate it here. I miss you too much. You and dad and... Well I don't thinkk I need to mention person number three. I really wish I was back home now. Heck i'm on the verge of insanity anyways so you never know...I may just hop on a plane over to Japan. Thats how bad it is here.
In case you're wondering (and I know you are) I haven't made any new friends. I don't care to open up to these new wierd people. Lifestyle is very different here. Most people my age don't care about each other the way we do at home.
I'm mailing a letter to Syaoran in here. I don't want you to send it to his house if you know that he's still in training. He may never see possibly the only letter I'll be able to write. I know that you would never read it.
Say hi to your mom for me and let her know I'm doing fine.
Love from,
Sakura
"Keeeero." Sakura said sweetly.
"Nani?"
"Does this letter to TOMOYO that I am ACTUALLY GOING TO SEND show in any way where I am?"
Kero read it over.
"Awwwwwww. No not at all."
"I thought you were going to yell at me."
"Only one attempt to actually mail a letter in a year is pretty good. I won't yell this time."
"Arigatou Kero."
Dear Otou-san,
I have wanted to write to you for so long. I really miss you.
Things for me have been going ok. I really wish I was back home with you rather than in a strange country with a whole new culture. I don't like it as much as Japans.
I have been really worried about you. I hate thinking about how where as you previously had Touya and I there to keep you company, you have no one now.
If I could have one wish for you it would be this. I wish for you to be happy. As happy as you were when we were around. Who knows? Maybe they'll move the court date up and I can come home really soon!
I love you.
Lots of love,
Sakura
"Can I see the letter you wrote to the brat?"
"No! Thats PRIVATE!"
"I want to check for spelling errors."
"I know you do." Sakura said sarcastically.
"Sam are you going out?" Lydia yelled. Lydia was her new mom.
"Yes!"
"Don't forget to put on the wig and colour contacts!"
Sakura grumbled. To make it so she was even more hidden whenever she went out in public she had to wear blue colour contacts and a blonde wig. She hated having to year them every day for the past year.
She put the letters in her pocket and headed for the post office.
~*~*~*~*
"Well aren't you a pretty one?"
The postal worker said as Sakura handed him her two letters. She had seen him around in places like the grocery store buying food for his family. She had always wondered how old he was. Her little sisters had said he must be 30. Sakura thought more like 40.
"Thank you. You're very kind."
"I'm sure the boys are just jumping over you. You have a boyfriend?"
"Syaoran..."
"Sorry?"
"No I don't"
"You're telling me stories aren't you?"
Sakura blushed.
"No. Um could you do me a favour? Could you please not stamp the country on it?"
"Huh? Why not?"
"Well...I'm running from my past. So please?"
"Of course. I understand."
He winked and opened his jacket a little more to reveal an FBI badge!
"You're very famous around the department." He whispered.
"You won't stop me will you?"
"No. Its not fair you shouldn't be able to let you're family know. Besides, theres no return adress on here. Tell you what. I'll have these letters there by noon tomorrow"
"Arigatou - I mean thank you. I really appreciate it."
Sakura smiled and walked towards home.
The man had said true words. There had been boys egar to ask her out. But her heart had only one special someone it was thinking about.
"Syaoran..."
~*~*~*~*
Meanwhile in Japan an amber eyed boy sneezed. He got off the plane and headed towards the exit of the airport.
"Tomorrow I'll surprise Sakura. Oh I can't wait to see her." He said to no one.
Little did he know that HE would be the one to be surprised.

Chapter 1 done! I'm going on vacation on monday so I'll have as mant chapters up as possible before then. P.S R+R pleeeease.
