Chapter 4
Sakura walked down the street, which was lined with Cherry Blossom trees. She only had four more days before she was to aboard the Hogwarts Express. Sakura had spent the last week pleading with her now adopted father and brother to allow her to attend Hogwarts. She looked at her Hogwarts letter again and read:

She looked up from the magical letter and found herself in front of Yukito's house. Well, it's now or never, she thought. Sakura knocked on the traditional Japanese sliding doors. The door slid open and Sakura was greeted by a cheerful Yuki.
"Hey Sakura," he said pleasantly.
She smiled back. "Hi Yukito."
"Come on in." Yukito held the door open for her. She stepped in and sat on the floor.
She lowered her eyes. "Um…..I need to speak to Yue." Yukito nodded and closed his eyes as large, white feathered wings sprouted from his back and enveloped him. Yue looked down at his young mistress, sensing her sadness. "What is wrong Mistress?"
Sakura looked up at him. "I have been accepted to go to a wizarding school called Hogwarts." She handed him her letter, praying that he would not take this as a joke. Yue skimmed through the letter and raised an eye. "Potter?" Sakura only nodded. "This must be a prank." Sakura shook her head.
"I know for a fact that this isn't a prank."
"How so?" Yue asked.
"My father, or should I say my adopted father, said that my mother didn't give birth to me. I was teleported onto their doorstep. Touya found me the next morning." Sakura dug into her bag and spread out a few magical things, including a letter that came along with her Hogwarts letter and her wand, which was a Maple and Phoenix feather, 13 inches. She gave Yue the second letter. It read:
HOGWARTS SCHOOL
of WITCHCRAFT and WIZARDRY
Headmaster: ALBUS DUMBLEDORE
(Order of Merlin, First Class, Grand Sorc. Chf. Warlock,
Supreme Mugwump, International Confed. of Wizards)
Dear Miss Sakura Lily Potter,
The following is a brief history of your past, taken that you are probably confused at this moment. Please read the following and take it into consideration. We hope to see you soon at Hogwarts.
"On July 31, 1980, Harry James Potter was born. Three years later, Lily Evans Potter gave birth to Sakura Lily Potter, born on April 1, 1983. On October 31, 1983, Lord Voldemort attacked the Potter household. He said the Killing Curse which backfired as it hit Harry, who was amazingly unharmed except for a thin lighting shaped scar upon his forehead. As the curse came towards Sakura, who was held by Voldemort, Sakura began emitting a silver glow, and the curse hit them. Sakura Lily Potter is rumored to be currently living in Tomoeda, Japan, under the care of Fujitaka Kinomoto. Sakura has taken the name, Sakura Kinomoto, to conceal her identity from Voldemort. Sakura Lily Potter will be attending Hogwarts, School of Witchcraft and Wizardry on September 1st, 1994.
Sincerely,
Albus Dumbledore,
Current Headmaster of Hogwarts
Yue looked up at Sakura. "Is this true, Sakura?"
"Yes. I have also already gotten my supplies," Sakura said, nodding her head in the direction of her supplies. "Tomoyo also recorded parts of Diagon Alley, the place where I bought my school supplies." Sakura hesitated. "And I, um, was hoping that you would stay here in Tomoeda while I go to Hogwarts."
"Absolutely not!" Yue said shocked. "I am your guardian after all. I am supposed to protect you from danger. What if Voldesnort, or whatever his name is, comes back after you." Yue paused. "And your blood brother, Harry."
"But, you can't."
"And why not?"
Sakura took a breath. "Because, you, or should I say Yukito, is not a student at Hogwarts. Also, if you came with me, my secret as the Clow Mistress will be revealed."
Yue frowned. "Where is Keroberus?"
"At home. Why?"
"I need to speak to him." Was the simple answer.
Sakura sighed. "Okay. Let's go then. Touya is the only one home. Good thing that he is the only one without magic that knows you, besides Tomoyo that is."
Yue transformed back into his borrowed form. Yukito had heard everything. "Please Sakura, if you do go, please be careful."
Sakura nodded. "Don't worry Yuki. I will."
The two made their way to Sakura's house. They ran into Tomoyo, who joined them on their walk back.
"Sakura, what does Yue need to tell Keroberus?" Tomoyo asked, whispering into her best friend's ear. Forest green orbs looked back from Yukito to Tomoyo. "I don't know," She whispered. "I don't know."
