Chapter 1

Sakura trudged down the sidewalk. It had rained the day before and the dark sky made Sakura feel sad. 'I hate school. Why is it even used? It's like a torture chamber, and it really sucks! What happened to everyone?' After Sakura had captured all the clow cards, Tomoyo had moved away to a different school and Kero had gone back into the clow book. He said that he is no longer needed, so he might as well try and get a good nap out of it.

Truth is Kero hadn't woken up for the past 5 years. Sakura was already worried, with no one to talk to she lost her confidence, her pride. The twinkle in her emerald eyes had faded, and that happy smile never came up. As quickly as she had made everyone feel good, she made them feel sad and frustrated. It was impossible to talk Sakura out of her little loneliness so she was considered an outcast, a geek to the school.

As she walked up to the school building, many people walked past her. No one dared looking at her, anymore. When she reached the classroom, her shoulder bumped into Syaoran. "Watch where you're going you loser!" Syaoran glared angrily. Sakura muttered a small sorry and sat at her desk. Mai walked up to Sakura with an evil grin.

"You better stay away from my Syaoran, or else you will pay! You can't have him! And don't even think about talking back or else I will make sure you are kicked out of this school!" Mai said in disgust. She flipped her hair and walked away.

Sakura rolled her eyes. "What an idiot! I would never want Syaoran anyways!" she wailed. Unfortunately one of Mai's cronies over heard and went and told her slut friend Mai. Already the morning wasn't doing well. Sakura just glared at everyone not knowing what to say.

*Lunch*

As soon as the bell ran Sakura dashed out the door. She ran to the cherry tree where she always went for lunch. Carefully climbing up the branches, she picked a shady spot where no one could see her.

~Flash back~

At recess Mai and her friends ganged up on Sakura and began beating her.Sakura ended up with a large bruise on her arm and several cuts. Sakura wanted to fight back, but she couldn't. she knew it would just cause her more pain later.

~End of Flash Back~

Sakura studied her arm quietly. She was crying. The pain from inside and out hurt too much. She heard talking below her. She silenced herself and listened.

"Did you hear about that Kinomoto dork? I heard she got the worse from Mai." A new 9th grader gossiped." Melody you talk too much! Kinomoto would be dead by now if Mai beat her to pulp.""Ya I guess your right, Karly. Anyways let's stay away from that Sakura girl. She will be a danger to us all if we hang out with her! Besides where is she now?" I have no clue Melody. She's probably hiding in a tree somewhere, crying her eyes out. She must be really weak." Melody and Karly walked away laughing leaving Sakura in shock and dismay.

~At Home~

Sakura walked slowly to her house. When she got inside she managed to say a weak "I'm home!" before running up the stairs.

"Hey Sakura..." Touya started while following Sakura up the stairs but then got a door slammed in his face instead. Puzzled, he knocked on her door. "Sakura what's wrong?" Using his you-better-open-that-door-or-else-your-dead tone of voice.

To his surprise, she did open the door. She looked sad for a moment; her eyes were still wet from the crying. But then she looked at Touya her eyes in suspicion. Folding her arms she asked. "WHAT DO YOU WANT TOUYA?!?!?!? IF IT'S ANYMORE SHIT THEN I DON'T WANT IT!" she screamed. Sakura didn't wait for a reply. She ran down the stairs and out the door.
