Forgotten Cherry Blossom
By: Tella
I do not own Card Captor Sakura, so don't sue me! I'm a broke student and varsity is mega harsh!
Chapter 1: Stay safe
Shouts and terrified screams ran through the lands as violet eyes filled with fear and tears watched a girl close a door. The girl spun around, her emerald eyes were filled with an unspoken urgency, her face determined.
"Tomoyo, you have to stay here. Hide here, you'll be save." She brushed a hand through raven hair then hugged her friend. "Don't let them catch you."
"What about you?"
"I have to defend my kingdom till my last breath. Please stay safe." She left Tomoyo with tears running down her face.
"Sakura…"
Sakura grasped her sword. She glanced at the wooden door she just closed. Stay save. Her skirts ruffled when she took a step away from the door. They where hampering her movement, something she couldn't afford, not now. "Sorry Tomoyo." She tore out the inner skirts and cast them aside, carefully she let her sword glide through the silk skirt. It parted and the newly cut slit gave her enough room to move around freely.
"The king said to look down here, we have to find her." A man's voice echoed along with several footsteps down the hallway; they quickly came to a halt when they saw her. Her eyes where strong and focused and the stray filtering light played on her blue dress, giving the impression of an unbreakable body. She watched them closely and a small grin spread across her face.
"What are you grinning at girl?"
"Six men, all for me. I'm flattered."
"The king said not to take any chances with you."
"Your King is right, I'm not some one to be taken lightly."
She attacked without blinking. She moved as swift as a hawk and as silent as the night breeze. Her sharp sword sliced through flesh like the wings of an owl slice through the air.
Fast.
Silent.
Deadly.
One after the other the soldiers fell to the ground, unable to defend themselves against the awaiting death.
Another soldier came running down the stairs, his eyes widened at the sight. Six bloody bodies lay on the ground and behind them stood a girl clutching a sword. The blood slowly dripped from her blade to her blood stained skirts.
"Your majesty! Down here!" Sakura jumped when the voice filled the stained hallway.
A tall man slowly walked down the stairs. He had a handsome face, but his skin was a sickening pale. Sliver hair fell over his bony shoulders and a dark crown rested on his brow. His black eyes were cold, cruel and deadly. "Kinomoto Sakura." His voice was harsh and dripping with satisfaction. She simply nodded in acknowledgement. "Where is the Cherry Blossom?"
Tomoyo's eyes widened when she heard the voice. Sakura…
"Cherry Blossom? Pick one of a tree if you want a flower."
"Don't play games with me girl, where is the Forgotten Cherry Blossom?"
"Forgotten… I've never heard of such a thing in my life."
Tomoyo sighed. Of course you wouldn't have heard of it Sakura, it was kept secret form you. You were kept secret form it. You are both an unspoken secret. She pulled her legs closer to her body. Blood threatened to cling to her if she didn't move soon. Swords collided out side the door, Sakura let out a small yelp before her sword crashed to the ground. Tomoyo edged for the door. "Please stay save."
"I promise Sakura."
Tomoyo sighed. Her fingers gently brushed over a silver blade, but lingered over the carvings of cherry blossoms.
"Sakura…" tears stained the porcelain skin. "Three years, three horrible long years."
