A beautiful green-eyed girl smiled wistfully, staring at the stars above her.
"Wow- it's such a beautiful night..."
The girl sighed softly. A mysterious aura glimmered around her. Something about her sad smile... something about her gentle but
Mysterious eyes dared another to look deeper. It was as if some secrets were whispering within her. Only a few knew her secret, the one secret
What could do but little change, but it was like a double-edged sword to the poor gentle girl. At times it was for the better, but for most of the time,
It sliced her and made her bleed. No more tears fell from her eyes, because too many had already fallen. Her well of tears were dry. She showed
Sorrow with a sad but beautiful smile... and she was only willing to show happiness, because happiness did not happen frequently enough.
"Sakura!"
The girl who was deep in thought, staring at the stars, turned and grinned as she saw her best friend lope over to her. Her long dark
Strands of purple were tied back into a braid, strands of slightly curling dark locks escaping in a few places, framing the beautiful and pale face of
The gentle girl. If a stranger looked at both of them, they would sense that both had some gentleness within them that one would long to know. A
bright smile lit Sakura's face, brightening the darkest dungeons.
"Tomoyo! Is this about our college report?"
"College report? How'd you know, I just got the assignment from-- oh, I forgot." Tomoyo said with a rather embarrassed look. "I always
forget that you're different..." Sakura sighed and rested a small hand on her friends shoulder. "I would rather you treat me normally." Sakura said
warmly. Tomoyo nodded.
With that, Sakura clapped her hands together. "Well- let us get started... It's already late..."
Tomoyo nodded happily, rather unaware of the strange sad look, which flitted across Sakura's face like a shadow.
'Oh Tomoyo... If you only knew that this is probably the last time we are going to be together like this...'
[The Next Day]
She had another one of those freaky dreams again. The clarity still rang fresh in her mind when those frightened sea green eyes shot
open. It was that same repeating dream...
[Dream]
A man in a white trench coat with long slightly baggy dress pants always stood there in front of her, in the same small room...
"How did you know?" He repeated against and again, his voice harsh and angry... "Tell me or I'll slice open your throat!"
The tall man leaned down towards her, most of his face obscured by the dark shadows and the poor lighting. Something clicked and
a cold metal object was placed next to her face.
"I'll blow your brain to the heavens... are you a spy?" Al Sakura felt was fear and a deep panging sense of acceptance...
[Dream Ends]
Sakura sighed; the dream would probably come true today. The dream was too vivid for it to be something of a later date... It was
weird, this was her special talent... or another may say it was her burden. She could see the future, and at times, the past. She saw the future in
dreams... or she saw it happening before it happened... something¡¯s she could just sense these things. Most things she could never change, and
some things she could. But she soon realized that changing something meant doing something horrible to the cycle which human life went
through. Birth-life-death... Disrupting the cycle would cause many undesired things. Sakura yawned and got up, grimly accepting the dream she
had of the strange man and the gun.
'Whatever happens... its destiny.' She thought grimly. 'Fate plays with us all, but when the dice rolls and lands on something, that is the
inevitable end.' She sauntered to the bathroom and washed her face and brushed her short honey brown hair with long gentle strokes. She
changed into her favorite black jacket and a pair of dress pants, which were a dark brown color. She slipped on a pretty black tank top and pulled
on her favorite low cut black leather boots. She wanted to prepare herself. Even if she knew what was to happen, many times those events came
at the most unexpected moments, surprising her... today... she wanted not to be surprised.
[In the streets...]
"Didn't I tell you not to mess with our family?" A tall chocolate haired man asked coldly to another man with light blonde hair. The blonde
cocked his head and gave him a cold grin. A long white scar ran gown his forehead, down to his chin. His blue eyes were cold and calculating.
"You think I'll leave you alone after what that bitch you call cousin did to me?" He fingered his scar and smirked. The tall brown haired
man glared at him, it was a glare that would stop even the bravest and foolhardy man in their tracks.
"That bitch you're talking about almost got raped by you, why else would she have done it? Your men roam the streets too much and
mess with the wrong people."
The blonde haired man spat on the ground. "Don't get smart Li. Don't get too smart with me. The reason why your stupid cousin Meiling
got quite a beating tonight it because I was in a bad mood. Don't mess with me Li, or you will regret it."
"I'll keep that in mind Parcivial." Li answered frostily, and quicker then the eye can follow, he whipped out a silver pistol and aimed it at
Parcivial heart.
"If you can whip out a gun before I shoot you, go ahead and try. But don't test my patience any further. Get the hell off my property
before I freaking shoot your brains out!" Parcivial had turned a pasty shade of white but tried not to show his fear by swaggering forward in his
dark black suit.
"Bastard." He said in Li's face before he pivoted and disappeared off Li's property. The tall man stood there, his gun still held in a rigid
Position in his hand. He didn't put down his gun until he heard the roar of a car engine as Parcivial disappeared.
'Stupid Yoko family... First then were after my fathers money, now they want our blood.' With a disgusted face, he spat on the ground
where Parcivial had stood and strode off in powerful strides into his large house.
[Sakura...]
Sakura was spending the day rather happily, a bit apprehensively, but happily enough. She brought herself a mocha latte and she was
now sitting in the park, swinging her legs back and forth like a little child as she happily sipped the drink. She was having a rather good day. She
didn't have any visions at all... nothing. It made her quite happy, because most of her days were filled with visions of people she didn't know
dying... or some little trifle thing that was of no importance. Sometimes she even saw what would happen to her in the future.
'Well- it's the afternoon... I have to go to work tomorrow... but...' Worries nearly overwhelmed her. She stood up. 'Maybe if I just walk
home it won't happen... I just--.'
"HELP ME!"
A tall dark haired girl with dark features ran right into her. Sakura stumbled and hit her head on the bench she was just getting off of, but
a clear image stood before her...
The girl with the ruby red eyes would die... a bullet would go straight through her throat and emerge on the other side... scarlet blood
would rain upon Sakura as she watched... A tall blonde stood behind the fallen girl with a dark black pistol...
"MOVE!" She cried to the dark haired girl without knowing what she was doing. Sakura pushed the girl away and grabbed her hand.
"Who are you?" The girl whimpered. "They will get me... please..." Sakura nodded. "Don't worry... I know you in a way you would never
expect, but if you want to live, follow me... please... quickly..." The black haired girl backed away nervously. "Can I trust you? Are you not... a Yoko
family member?" Sakura could literally feel the little time she had left running out.
'Sakura! Stop it! You can't prevent her death!' A small voice cried in her head.
'But I must try!' Sakura thought to herself and she pleaded with the raven-haired girl.
"You have to go... If you don't follow me now then that man with the blonde hair will come up behind you and shoot you through the throat
and you'll die!"
"H-how'd you know a blonde haired man was chasing me?" The girl asked nervously, her eyes wide.
"Please listen." Sakura pleaded, gripping her hands, but the girl screamed something in Chinese really loud and turned to run away
from Sakura.
*BANG*
There was the sound of a bullet going off and Sakura already knew that the inevitable finally happened... Sakura felt numb, like she
always did when her prediction of death came true. Sakura watched as the blood spurted from the wound... the ruby eyed girl looked astonished
as she turned and stared at Sakura, blubbering something and clutching Sakura's clothes, leaving blood red stains on Sakura's clothes which
darkened the dark colors even more.
"Y-you... k-knew... I..." The girl whispered before a big red blood bubble came from her lips and she collapsed. Sakura stared at her
clothes and hands and started to shake as the blood spread down to her skin, touching her. Sakura slowly looked up and saw the blonde haired
man, standing there with a large scar running down his forehead down to his chin. He tucked away the black pistol and winked at Sakura before
he turned and strode away, as if nothing had happened...
Gasps came from Sakura's throat...
Words would not escape her lips as she trembled and stuttered, she looked around at the people who were gathering there in horror.
"C-c-call the police!" She screamed as she backed away from the dying girl who withered in pain as blood poured down from her gun
shot wound. "GET SOMEONE!" She screamed at the crowd around her and then she pushed the people around her away, gasps escaping from
her constricting throat as she ran away from the death and her prediction.
[At the hospital...]
"Meiling!"
A tall dark brown haired man stood over his cousin with sad eyes. Meiling was still living, her body still fighting for a breath. But
Meiling's eyes were slowly dying and the sickening wet choking sound was starting to die off as the escorted her away from him towards the
emergency room... but he heard the words from her mouth, which were obscured by gurgles.
"G...green eyed... girl... knew... Parcivi--."
Li shook his head, wondering what she was talking about but knowing that Parcivial had probably killed her. He clenched his hands
tightly. A doctor with graying hair met him in the hallway.
"Mr. Syaoran Li?"
"Yes." Syaoran replied, his voice slightly above a low growl.
"Your cousin will most likely not be able to survive the wound... it's surprising she lasted this long with so little blood..."
"Yes... it is surprising." Syaoran murmured absent-mindedly. But in his mind a revenge plot was already forming...
"Oh, by the way, the witnesses of the murder are still in the hospital. You should go see them to find who killed her." The doctor said
gently. Syaoran shook his head. "I already know." He said with clenched teeth, he turned and walked down the hallway where his distant cousin
Eriol waited, his dark hair glinting in the fluorescent hospital lights.
"Syaoran..."
"Shut up."
"No, listen--."
Syaoran glared at Eriol but an urgent look passed between them and Syaoran relented, his face a dark cloud.
"We are missing a key witness who actually was right in front of Meiling, talking to her, before she died..."
Syaoran turned and looked at Eriol. "A witness? What good would that do anyways? Meilings dead and Parcivial is going to get away
with it. Face it... Parcivial has all that money and his father works with the government." But Eriol shook his head. "But this girl... they said that she
was holding onto Meiling's wrist and talking to her and Meiling was yelling really loud... Are you sure she wasn't part of it?"
"Holding Meiling?" Syaoran asked softly, a strange glimmer taking up his dark amber eyes. "That little bitch!" He said loudly, whirling
around towards the exit. "How did she look like Eriol?"
"They said she had green eyes and short brown hair... one of the witnesses knows her. He said her name is Sakura Kinomoto."
Syaoran nodded. "Eriol, look for where she lives and bring her to me, I have some talking to do and Parcivial is not going to get away
with this murder..."
[Sakura]
She let out dry sobs with no tears as she rubbed at her skin with a soapy cloth.
'I can't get the blood off me...' Sakura thought frantically. She could still smell the blood and feel the dying girls fingers drag down her
front as they girl stared at her with awestruck eyes.
'I hate this... I hate this...' Sakura wept, her tears not falling but welling in her eyes as she got out of the tub and rinsed herself off. This
gift was nothing more than a large heavy burden. More then once she had attempted suicide to get rid of the images, but miraculously, she
survived most of them. She stopped trying... but it didn't mean she couldn¡¯t try again.
Sakura slipped on a pink long shirt and white PJ pants and walked to the mirror and opened the cabinet. She removed two razors from
the cabinet and drew up her sleeves. Already, two long scars were present on each wrist. Sakura closed her eyes tightly as she prepared herself
for the pain before she drained herself of her vital fluids...
*SLAM*
Sakura was started and dropped the two razor blades on the floor as a total stranger with dark blue hair entered her house. Sakura
saw him as she opened the bathroom door. His large glasses reflected her terrified face.
"Come with me quietly if you value your life." The man said softly, his voice a low growl.
Sakura shook her head and attempted to stupidly shut the bathroom door in the mans face but he was quick. He grabbed her arm and
she cried out as he twisted it behind her.
"Quietly." He whispered in her ear, but Sakura shook her still wet hair and bit his hand. He yelped and she sprang away, frightened,
and she ran towards the door, but he was fast... and before she knew it... he had her in a arm lock and she was falling asleep as he held a cloth to
her nose.
