Te on to Chap 3!!
Could it really be her? This frail girl in front of him didn't seem like she could handle even the thought of what they were all about. It wasn't possible. But those eyes, they are the same, beautiful and holding so much intensity as those from a few years back. Why had he not seen it before? If it really was her then Keiji-sama must be informed immediately.
"Kinomoto... you do go to my school! I remember now! You are really filthy rich aren't you?"
Sakura giggled at Meiling's comment. The girl looked at her with her crimson eyes that were full of excitement. Siyuki high had always labeled her as the slutty bitch, but to Sakura Meiling didn't seem like that all. She was just like every other senior she had met. Meiling continued to gush over Sakura causing her to laugh again, however, she quickly stopped, and feeling even more tired than before. Yawning loudly seemed to bring the blue haired doctor out of his trance that he seemed to have slipped into. Walking over towards Sakura he gentle informed her that she should sleep more then usual for the next week normal things would tire her out more.
"Come on now Meiling she needs some more rest."
"But I don wanna go, I wanna talk to Kinomoto-san some more!"
"Now Meiling!"
"Ohh fine"
"HOW COULD YOU FAIL!!! I PRACTICALLY FED HER TO YOU!!!!!!"
"Si... Si... Sir I...m sorry, wh....en."
"STOP YOUR STUTTERING!"
"Y...es Sir I'm sorry sir. When everyone started to attack I couldn't find her at first. But then I saw Cahn with her and figured he knew what he had."
"That is NO excuse! I assigned my precious jewel to YOU not Cahn! You know very well what happens to people who do not satisfy me Itachi."
"No please sir not... not."
"Mom where are we going?"
A tall woman with long flowing grayish purple hair looked down at her daughter. Her face was gentle and kind with a small smile that seemed to always be on her face; however, her emerald eyes reflected certain strength and mystery. Her daughter was precious to her and she would do anything to keep her safe from the horrible things in the world. Even if it meant doing something that her and her husband had tried their hardest to keep from young Sakura.
"You'll see my dear cherry blossom we are almost there."
Something told Sakura that this wasn't just any surprise but something that she would cherish forever. It was strange though that her mother seemed a little on edge ever since they had left the house. Glancing around Sakura finally realized that they had entered a rather run down building. For a girl who had been raised most of her life in high class it would seem odd for them to be in such a place; however, she was use to coming to this part of town, especially with her mother. Either to visit someone or just to play with some of her friends that she had down in this area. There was something different about this place though, something that Sakura could not place. Looking up at her mother with a questioning expression soon got her an answer. Bending down to look at Sakura face to face, Nadeshiko gently explain what was about to happen to the best of her abilities
"Sakura, what you are about to do you must never tell anyone, not even your closest friend, not even family members. Also it is going to sound extremely strange for a mother to ask her daughter but it is important to me. Please be brave Sakura in your answer."
"Mom it can't be that bad, whatever it is I'll do for you and I won't tell anyone."
"Thank you my daughter"
With that Nadeshiko wrapped her arms around her 12-year-old daughter and gently hugged her. Sakura smiled and hugged her mother only slightly confused at the gesture.
Sakura slowly sat up in her bed remembering the dream that she had just had. It wasn't just a dream but it was a memory of that day. She hadn't understood then but she knew now. Gently Sakura lifted the bottom of her shirt, which she notice was no longer her skimpy top but a lose button up one, and slowly ran her hand over the left side of her lower back. Every time she looked in the mirror or simply ran her hand over it she remembered her mother who she had loved so dearly. Finally putting her shirt back in place Sakura stood up from the bed that she had fallen asleep in. Where exactly was she?
Sakura's small feet emerged from the bed and probed the wooden floor. The sudden cold of it made her with draw for a second only to place them firmly down in order to support her body's weight. A spell of dizziness overcame her causing her to lean on the red wood nightstand place beside the bed. Finally conquering her battle for control, Sakura stood upright and looked around slowly. When she had been awake before she had been to absorbed in the chaos of what had happened to her to notice the room she was in. A heart meter sat to the left of the bed, behind the nightstand. 'That most have been the beeping I heard' Sakura thought laughing slightly. On the right side was an I.V stand with a water drip connected. Glancing at her forearm she notice a small prick mark, which meant she had most likely been connected to the I.V at one point. A small maroon couch sat under the large window, which was drawn with matching curtains. The walls were a soft blue that created a harsh yet nice contrast with the furniture and flooring. To Sakura it looked like what she wished hospitals did, a homey medical room.
Walking over towards the window Sakura drew back the curtains and looked out the window and into the bright sky. Looking down she saw a beautiful landscaping lay several stories beneath her. Backing away from the window Sakura turned towards the door leading out of the room. Turning the knob she exited it and walked into a well light hallway with dark mahogany wood and reddish brown walls. And so she started her journey around the building she was in not sure what to expect.
Tap, Tap
Xiao Lang was caught off guard at the light knock on his door. He had been looking at documents and profiles of their ports and workers, anything to get his mind off of the sleepy girl in the medic room. Giving a gruff response, the intruder entered. Amber eyes met hazel ones almost covered by the thick makeup lathered on them, as the unwanted guest approached his desk. "Xiao Lang honey why are you always so wrapped up in your work? Nothing is going to happen. Those cowards retreated and now everything is fine. Come spend some time with me. The weather is beautiful a perfect day for a dip in the pool. Come one please for me?" With a disgusted look Xiao Lang rolled his eyes at the girl's desperate attempts. She never gave up. Now here she was sitting on his desk swishing her dull brown hair around annoyingly. He was a player and she was a bitch that wouldn't face the facts. He looked back down at his paper work and continued to file the remaining documents, before giving a response dripping with aggravation. "No Haru I'd rather not, besides Keiji-sama has asked to met with me shortly. In fact I should start heading over there now. And by the way stop calling me honey, you are nothing to me. You needed a man for initiation and I needed a lay. If I need another I highly doubt your 'services' will pleasure me an anyway. "
Giving the woman his famous glare that made even the cruelest of men shiver in fear he left the room and started to head down the hallway. But as quickly as he had started walking he stopped. In front of him was the girl he had been trying so hard to not think of. She held a frighten look that made her look like a lost puppy trying to find her family. For a split second his heart lurched in sadness before he gained control and once again was the cold-hearted man he use to be.
Sakura had been wandering the hallways for what seemed like hours and still had found no place out. She had thought it would be easy to find the door that led out of the house but it had proved to be much harder then she thought. At first she had made sure not to go up anymore but after she had search for a good hour and had yet to find the exit she started wandering hoping for anything. Opening random doors was to no avail either most were lock anyways. There were windows but none that actually opened so you could see out. Sakura was lost miserably. 'How much worse could this get?' A firm grip landed on Sakura's shoulder making her entire body jump. Not once had she past a single living soul in this place yet and was beginning to think that Meiling and the doctor were just illusions. ' Ma... maybe its. a...a GH...ghost!' Screaming at the top of her lungs Sakura tried to run but the firm grip on her shoulder did not budge and was shortly accompanied by another on her waist. Once the grip on her waist was firm, which was a little difficult from all her squirming, the grip on her shoulder went to her mouth, muffling her ear shattering scream.
'Let me go, please! Please let me go!' Sakura pleaded tacitly, her eyes shut tightly and her body still fighting.
"Calm down jeez woman." A cold voice froze Sakura's movements. She felt herself being turned around once she stopped putting up any resistance. What she saw in front of her made her stare wide eyed. A man she found looked oddly familiar. Was it his messy chocolate hair, or his superior composer? But then their eyes connected. 'Those eyes.' She had seen those intense amber eyes before. Their eyes looked into each other's for another second before the rest of his appearance registered as the man who had called her a little girl. Sakura continued to stare into the breath taking eyes before the sound of footsteps coming closer to them interrupted.
"Xiao Lang what was all of that screaming... oh look its that bitch from the medic room. Why she has woken up how special."
Sakura turned her head slightly to lay her eyes on a woman dressed in a skanky skirt that didn't leave much to the imagination. Along with her shirt, which looked more like a hooker bra to her, that was a tube top that ended directly beneath her breasts that were quiet obviously fake. Disgust reflected clearly in Sakura's emerald eyes. How could someone dress so sluttish? The make up that was caked on to her face did nothing for her. Did the man in front of her find this ... thing attractive? 'Wait why do I care?' Sakura didn't have much time to quell the strange emotion coming over her when a voice broke the tension.
"Haru leave now. Xiao Lang, how nice of you to find exactly who I was looking for. Now if you two would please come with me Keiji-sama has requested your presence."
Sakura watched the man whose name was Xiao Lang let go of her and start to follow the blue haired man who had been her doctor, rolling his eyes at something. Xiao Lang looked back at the girl only to see that she was still standing there. Slowly he walked over to her, bent down so that they were only inches away from each other's face. He watched in amazement as her emerald eyes turned a lighter green in her fear."Are you coming?"
Realization seemed to hit when she started to look away slowly nodding her head. The two started after the blue haired man trying hard to ignore the feelings coming from being so close to each other.
They had come to a stop at a large oak door when the blue haired man knocked. The door opened to reveal an older man in his early forties with a large smile on his face."Ah come in Eriol, Syaoran, I see you have brought the young sleeping beauty with you." The man's voice was kind and inviting, which made Sakura feel better about the situation. When the three entered Sakura saw that the room was very much like a sophisticated office, large bookshelves, and a large desk and chair.
"Now Eriol please introduce me to the dear woman here."
"Keiji-sama I wanted to introduce you myself to Kinomoto Sakura."
A small wave of shock crossed the man's face. But just as fast as it had come it was replaced with yet another smile. What had gone unnoticed was the small shock that crossed Syaoran's stone face as well, for it had not been seen unless under close inspection.
"So you are a Kinomoto eh? Well prove it."
Confusion crossed Sakura's face. How did these people expect her to prove she was a Kinomoto? It wasn't like she carried around her birth certificate, plus even if she wanted her driver's license for some reason; she didn't know what had happened to her wallet. And why was it so important to them? Keiji saw the distress on the young girl's face. He walked over to her, his blue eyes shining with understanding and comfort for the young Kinomoto. He already saw that she truly was Nadeshiko's daughter, not only did she have the same august eyes as her mother but she had her spirit. When he reached the girl he placed his large hand on her shoulder. In a low whisper so that his nephews could not hear them he said, "Nadeshiko gave you a gift shortly before her unfortunate death. It is okay you are safe now, no more guns, no more confusion just truth of the past. Do you want that Sakura? I can see it in your eyes you loved your parents, even your father who you never met. But..."
"There was always something she was hiding."
A small smile appeared on Keiji's face. Emerald eye's that shone with such need stared at him. It was need for truth. A need he knew exactly how to fill.
"Boys you may want to pull up a seat, you as well Sakura, dear, we may be here for a while."
"So your names Yanagisawa?"
Guess wat Im going to ask. Come on guess. YAY YOU GOT IT RIGHT!! It was to review!
