Angels Of The Light

I don't own CCS, and I'm poor, so PLZ DON'T SUE ME!! Though, the non-CCS characters are mine along with the story!

By: Mistress Ness

Chapter 1: Meeting the Angels

In the basement of a huge mansion, a group of 6 girls were laughing when suddenly, one of them had a hand up to her head.

"Ying Fa? What's wrong?" a girl with wavy, deep grayish-purple hair and violet eyes said worriedly.

"I see her……." A girl with light, honey-colored hair and deep emerald eyes replied.

"What you see?" another young woman with raven-black hair tied in two buns and piercing, red eyes asked. The purple-eyed girl shot the red-eyed one a glare.

"Cork it, Ruby!" She snapped with a half-smile. The girl Ruby laughed and then gave her a smirk.

"Honestly, Amethyst, I care about Emerald as much as you do."

Amethyst rolled her eyes and sighed. Another one with her brown hair in two pigtails and brown eyes smiled at seeing the other 2 quarreling. "You guys look so funny when you argue like children." She laughed, getting a dead glare from Ruby and Amethyst.

"Shut up, Crystal!" They chorused with a smile. Another brown-haired girl, who was reading a book, she looked at them while pushing up her glasses that showed her deep brown eyes. She only smiled and went back to reading.

"What'cha reading, Jade?" A girl named Amber asked while getting behind Jade to take a peek at her book. Jade noticed her and pulled the book away from her sight with a deep rooted blush coloring her cheeks.

"No way, Amber! It's a bit personal!" she cried. Amber smiled innocently at her with a wink.

"Damn, that sucks! You're no fun, Jade!" she laughed. Jade smirked and flicked her off. "Fuck you."

Amber pretended to be hurt. "Aw, I'm wounded." She pouted. The rest of the girls laughed, except Ying Fa.

"No! it's Ryu!!" She stood up with a worried look. Ruby looked at her. "Ryu Namura? The mega snob?"

"Yeah, he's chasing after Lila Emika. He's going to…….rape her!" intense fire burned in Ying Fa's emerald eyes.

"Then what are we waiting for!? Let's go kick his sorry ass!" Amethyst pointed to a closet near them.

"Hai!" the girls each grabbed a cloak and ran out.

----------------

"Leave me alone, Ryu!" A girl with carrot-red hair and hazel eyes cried as she took a turn into a dark, narrow alley. She panicked even more as she clearly heard heavy and quick steps behind her. She tried to run faster, but before she could, a hand caught her arm, forcing her to turn around.

Her eyes met cold, deep blue eyes. The stranger's blond hair shone in the very dim light of the light pole nearby.

"Let me go Ryu!" she cried angrily as she tried to mask her fear. The man Ryu smirked and forced his lips upon hers. She bit his lips and tried to push him away. He pulled away and smacked her.

"Give it up, Lila! You're mine now!" he slid his hand down to her behind. Lila smacked his hands, only causing him to grip her waist tightly. He forced open her thighs with his legs. Lila felt her blood go cold in fear as she felt his member against her womanhood. She struggled greatly to be free, but he was too strong. He ripped open the buttons of her shirt, exposing her white bra.

"Nice….." he said with a smirk. He was about to touch her when a clear voice called out from beside them.

"HEY, PICK ON SOMEONE YOUR OWN SIZE, YOU SICK BASTARD!"

He looked to his side and saw 6 silhouetted figures hidden in shadows by the full light of the light pole.

"Who the fuck are you!?" he demanded. As they got near the light, he saw 6 girls all wrapped up in cloaks of different colors.

"I'm Jade!" a girl with glasses and a pale green cloak said.

"Amber!" Another with a gold-colored cloak spoke.

"Crystal!" One with a white cloak joined.

Two other girls stepped in front of the first 3. They did a battle pose as they smirked at the boy.

"I am Ruby!" one of them said; her red cloak matched her crimson eyes.

"There goes me now. I'm Amethyst!" the other one in a purple cloak smirked at him. And then, the last one stepped in front of both girls. Ryu's jaw nearly dropped at the sight of the exotic goddess before him. Her soft pink hair curled up from her shoulders as her emerald green eyes were narrowed into a cold glare. Her cloak was light pink, had white feathers, and a cherry blossom in the middle.

"And I'm the leader, Ying Fa!" she said in a hard voice as she readied herself to fight.

"That's nice, and you're going somewhere with this shit?" Ryu said sarcastically.

Ying Fa smiled. "Girls!"

Before Ryu could react, the other 5 quickly ran and seized both of his arms, pulling him away from Lila.

He managed to break free and ran towards their leader. If he couldn't get some from Lila, he could break this hot girl.

"Ying Fa!" Crystal cried and tried to go after him, but Ruby grabbed her wrist, stopping her.

"She'll be fine, just watch." She smiled serenely. Ying Fa smirked and quickly ran behind him and kicked in the back of the head, nearly knocking him down.

"Ow, tough bitch eh?" he snarled at her. The girl's eyes turned as cold as ice. "I am a badass tough bitch!" she jumped and kicked him in the jaw before he could react and was knocked out cold.

"Get it right, you sick fuck." She added as she placed her foot on top of his chest. The others broke into clapping, Lila included.

"Way to go, Emerald!" Ruby high-fived her. "You kicked his ass good!" Amethyst grinned as she recorded Ryu's bruises in his face with her pocket video camera. Amber, Crystal, Jade, and Lila were still open-mouthed.

Ying Fa smiled and walked over to Lila. "You ok?" she asked with honest concern.

Lila nodded. "Y-yes, thank you!" she bowed. Ying Fa laughed and patted her shoulder.

"Anytime. And btw, if this asshole tries to break you again, just come to us. We'll make sure he gets his butt whopped again." She winked and turned back to her friends.

"Let's roll outta here!" she said, earning a cheer from the girls.

"Bye, Lila take care, sweetie!" the Angels chorused as they waved to the awed girl. She only smiled and waved back.

---------------

"Man, I'm beat!" a handsome young man sighed as he made his way to his car near the light pole. His messy, dark chocolate hair shadowed his mesmerizing amber eyes from the light. He then heard laughing nearby. He froze and focused on the source of the giggling.

6 feminine figures walked out from a dark alley into the light. The girls were hot, but there was one that caught his eye. A sophisticated-looking girl with pink hair in curls and green eyes, wearing a feathered pink cloak was talking to……

"Meiling!?" he mouthed in shock, nearly freaking out. He narrowed his eyes on the girl the cutie was talking with. Black hair in buns, ruby-red eyes…..yep, Meiling alright. His 17-year old cousin, Meiling has been living with him in his apartment for 4 years and she has never told him that she goes out this late. It was around 12 midnight for crying out loud! He decided to talk about this with Meiling when she gets home.

He saw the pretty, pink-haired girl hop in a white Nissan Skyline with a drawing of a cherry blossom shedding petals.

"Ok, ladies, let's roll!" she said smiling. He just couldn't get enough from staring at her. Such a pretty smile and flawless beauty in every part of her body.

"You got it!" Meiling hopped into her metal-red Corvette with the purple-cloaked girl.

"Don't leave us behind!" The girl in pigtails shouted as she and the other 2 girls got into a silver Mitsubishi Lance Evolution.

"And go!" the pink girl shouted and the 3 cars blew dust as they sped off, whooping.

He smiled. These girls are fine-looking yet have WILD streaks.

"Ok, I'm off this way! Take care guys!" Ying Fa smiled as she pointed to her left as they came to a stop at a red traffic light.

"Okay, I'll go drop Amethyst off before heading home!" Ruby called out. Ying Fa smirked at her. "Don't get in a lot of trouble in the way, wild Ruby!" she teased.

Ruby smirked back and flicked her off, causing Ying Fa to laugh and speed off.

"Bitch." Meiling chuckled as she made a right turn. Amethyst was still with her camera on, and was filming the whole thing. She looked at Ruby through the camera's eye.

"But admit it, she may be a "bitch" but she's our best friend ever!" she smiled.

Ruby nodded and smiled back. "Yeah, you're right."

--------Amethyst's House----------

"See ya at school, Ruby!" Amethyst said as she gathered the girls' cloaks she collected after they stopped for food and closed the card door behind her, waving.

"Yeah, if you come in contact with your sweetie, tell him I said "hi"!" Ruby called out to her.

She waved. "You bet, night!"

"Alright girl, night!" Ruby grinned and sped down the street as Amethyst went inside her mansion.

-------Meiling and Syaoran's Apartment--------

"Shit, Syaoran's awake……" Ruby cursed under her breath as she pulled up into the parking lot. She saw the bright light of the living room in their apartment. Her cousin, Syaoran Li and her have been living in Tomoeda since they were 13 when her auntie told them to go study all the way in Japan before returning to Hong Kong to train to become leaders of the Li clan. Syaoran and Meiling have to engaged by the time of their return. Meiling hasn't had a lot of boyfriends, unlike Syaoran, who is a MAJOR player and has had many down the block waiting for their chance of a good fuck. Okay, take that back, Syaoran DID got laid a bunch of times, but the relationship lasted for some time, but the breakup was ALWAYS after the exciting night of hot fun. Syaoran's last girlfriend, Rei they lasted for 3 months until they got laid. Rei lost her virginity and somehow they got into a BIG fight causing the breakup.

Ruby sighed as she went up to their "home". She inserted her key, unlocked the door, and went in.

"I'm home, Syaoran." She said as she quietly went to the living room. Her cousin was sitting at the big, green couch, wearing a white muscle shirt with a leather black jacket over it with baggy black jeans. His dark hair was messy as usual and his amber eyes were fixed on her. Ruby had the feeling that he was out partying AGAIN!

"Well, had fun much?" she joked in a light voice, man was she tired.

"Don't get cute with me, Meiling. What were you doing out in the street at this time of the night?" he asked with a very serious voice. Meiling gulped as she tried to mask her reaction.

"What'cha talking about, cousin?" she tried to laugh, but it only made her lip twitch. Syaoran glared at her and smirked. "Don't play innocent. I saw you near a dark alley with 5 other girls and all of you were wearing cloaks. Tell me,

Meiling…." His look softened. "I'm not mad at ya, I'm just curious because you never told me that you go out at midnight before."

Meiling, who had finally showed her shock, eased herself and sat in front of him, in her lazy-man chair.

"Okay, let's begin. About a month ago, I was asked to join a gang that protected girls from rapists. It's called the Angels of the Light. There are 6 members and each have a codename and a cloak of a different color. For example, my codename is Ruby. And you saw that I was wearing a red cloak, right?" she said and Syaoran nodded.

"Well, we wear cloaks as to represent our codename. The other members are also codenamed by gem stones. Let me see…." She held her hand in front of her.

"There's Amber, Crystal, Jade……" she began to count down with her fingers.

"Oh and the Leader's advisors, Amethyst and me." She finished. Syaoran counted, but she only mentioned 5.

"Who's the last girl?" he asked. Meiling smiled proudly and said.

"Our Leader, Ying Fa."

"Ying Fa……cute." Syaoran said in thought. "Or Amethyst and I call her Emerald at times." Meiling added.

"But, what's her REAL name?" Syaoran asked. Meiling's eyes turned ice cherry. She stood up and shook her head, showing off her diamond-shaped ruby earrings.

"Sorry, dear Syaoran, but I'm not allowed to reveal Ying Fa's name." she turned and headed towards her room.

"Why?" Syaoran said, confused. Meiling's cold eyes met his own as she had a faint smile.

"For her sake. Good night, Syaoran." She closed the door behind her. Syaoran just sat there, staring at the closed door for a second before getting up himself and went to bed.

----------Next Day At Seiju High--------------

"Hey Eriol!" Syaoran coughed out to a dark-blue haired young man. The guy turned to him and gave him a goofy smile.

"Yo, Syaoran!" he pushed up his glasses as he stopped to allow Syaoran to catch up. Syaoran wheezed and panted as he stopped to catch his breath. Eriol kept grinning with a gleam in his deep blue eyes.

"Overslept the alarm?" he teased, getting a playful glare from Syaoran.

"So?" he snapped defensively. Eriol merely chuckled when a cheerful voice said.

"Eriol!" A girl with wavy, gray hair and glittering purple eyes came running towards them.

"Hey, Tomoyo." Eriol smiled brightly at her as she wrapped her arms around his neck. He toyed with her amethyst earrings that are shaped like a diamond.

"And where's my good morning kiss?" Tomoyo asked with a pout. Eriol laughed and kissed her passionately on the lips.

"Better?" he asked with a dreamy glow in his eyes. "Hai!" she smiled as she rested her head on his chest. Then she noticed Syaoran.

"Good morning, Syaoran!" she smiled. Syaoran grinned back.

"Morning, Tomoyo." He nodded.

"Where's Sakura? I thought she was with you." Eriol asked as he laced his hands around her waist. Tomoyo laughed. "She should be here by……"

"TOMOYO!" a bright voice cut her off. "Now." Tomoyo finished with a laugh. They all turned and saw a girl running towards them at full speed. Syaoran felt himself blush a tad bit. There she was, Tomoyo and Meiling's best friend, Sakura Kinomoto. He had to admit it, she was angelically beautiful. He did like her, a little though since they don't really know each other. But he loved the way her copper, l-o-n-g hair that went down her waist flew in the breeze and the pure emerald eyes. But, Sakura has this thing about popular guys, she gets edgy around them. She doesn't trust men much, other than Eriol, Takashi, Terada, Minoru, and Kiyoshi.

"Good morning, Sakura." Eriol smiled at her. Sakura retuned his greeting with a friendly hug.

"Hey, Eriol, how's it hanging?" she asked, her smile even brighter. Tomoyo laughed and whispered into her ear.

"Psst, aren't you gonna say hi to Syaoran too, Emerald?"

Sakura then made eye-contact with Syaoran. An expressionless look was now pasted on her face. Syaoran wondered what Tomoyo said to her

"Hello, Li." She said bluntly, bowing. Syaoran had to smile at her politeness.

"Please, call me Syaoran. And can I call you Sakura?" he asked with great respect towards the lovely lady in front of him. Sakura was taken back by his voice of respect. She felt a bit uneasy for being so blank. But it was her nature, after the horrible day. She brushed the thoughts aside. She somehow felt as she could trust him as much as she trusts Eriol, maybe even more than that.

"Yes, Syaoran." A little smile was tugging the corners of her mouth. He smiled again. Sakura then remembered something. She took Tomoyo's hand and said.

"Come ON! We're supposed to practice our cheers for the soccer game, remember?" she said in a panic. Tomoyo slapped a hand against her forehead.

"Damn, I forgot!" She turned to Eriol and gave a quick kiss.

"Bye, see ya later. You too, Syaoran!" she and Sakura waved to them before running down to the track.

"That's Sakura and Tomoyo to you, always a bit spacey." Eriol laughed. Syaoran nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, since Sakura is the captain of the cheerleading squad and Tomoyo and the rest of their crew is on the team; they can't be late." He said.

"Yeah. Just hope that their coach won't have their heads." Eriol chuckled.

"Hey…." Syaoran said. He wanted to ask him about the new gang he heard of last night.

"Yeah?" Eriol looked at him.

"Have you……have you heard of the Angels of the Light?" Syaoran asked. Eriol's eyes widened for a spilt second before smiling again.

"Yeah, I know about 'em." He replied calmly, much to Syaoran's shock.

"YOU DO!? HOW!?" he exploded. Eriol smirked and winked.

"Well, let's just say that I'm dating their Amethyst." He laughed. Syaoran felt that he was gonna go into cardiac arrest at hearing this.

"You mean Tomoyo is Amethyst, advisor to the leader!?" he gasped. Eriol nodded.

"Yeah, she told me 2 weeks after she joined. And I'm proud of her. I really am." He said.

"Then, you know who their leader is?" he asked cautiously. Eriol pushed up his glasses again and nodded. "Yeah, Ying Fa. Tomoyo and Meiling call her Emerald sometimes though."

"You know who she really is?" Syaoran said. At that, Eriol's eyes clouded.

"Sorry man, Tomoyo made me swear that I wouldn't tell anyone Ying Fa's identity.

And Ying Fa made promise too." He said.

"Oh, ok." Syaoran hid his disappointment. "But who are the other members?"

Eriol was in though for a minute before answering. "Uh, let's see……Rika Sasaki, Chiharu Mihara, and Naoko Yanagisawa."

Syaoran smiled at a sudden though. "Rika's in it huh? I wonder what will Terada say?" he laughed. Eriol looked calm. "He knows too. And trust me; I think Kiyoshi's interested in your cousin. And we both know that Takashi likes Chiharu and Minoru's got the hots for Naoko. And by the looks of it, I think you're into Ying Fa." He smirked at Syaoran. He blushed at his comment.

With a beet red face, Syaoran changed the subject.

"Hey, let's go see the girls' practice." He said. Fortunately, Eriol bought it. "Sure. I wanna see my Amethyst in her hot cheerleading outfit." He winked at Syaoran.

Syaoran wanted to see Sakura in her outfit though. He laughed at the though of Sakura's baton hitting her head; she might very skilled, but she is still a bit of a klutz.

------------The Following Day-------------

"Man, I hate Grammar homework!" Meiling whined as she was sitting in the kitchen counter with Syaoran, who was helping her.

"I swear to god, I bite at this!" she made a face, much to Syaoran's amusement.

"Look, if you concentrate, you might be able to….."

"RING RING RING!" a ringing sound from Meiling's cell phone cut him off.

"Hold the thought." Meiling laughed as she fished her red cell phone out of her bag.

"Yeah, Ruby here." She said. A moment of silence and her face turned serious. "Uh huh? Okay, I'll go pick up Amethyst and we'll meet at Jade's. Okay? See ya, Ying Fa." She hung up and looked at her cousin.

"Sorry Syaoran, duty calls. I'll try to be home as early as I can so you can help me with my homework. Take care." She gave him a peck on the cheek before heading out the door. Syaoran ran to his room, picked up his car keys and went out. He spotted Meiling's corvette going to the right at the turn. He ran downstairs and hopped into his dark green Viper.

He followed the right turn and kept an easy distance between him and Meiling until they reached a mansion surrounded by trees, Tomoyo's place.

"AMETHYST! GET YOUR ASS OVER HERE!" Meiling shouted as honked her horn.

Tomoyo rushed out through the gate with the girls' cloaks and her camera. A small smile playing on her lips. "I HEARD ya! Honestly Ruby, don't be so loud next time!"

Meiling stuck out her tongue at her. "Be serious, Ying Fa had sensed another asshole again." She said. Tomoyo raised an eyebrow at this.

"Man, out little Emerald's powers sure have grown even more powerful. When we first started the gang, it took her tons of concentration to pinpoint the attacker."

Meiling nodded as she made her car purr. "Yeah…….poor Ying Fa. Having a strong power awakened after that horrible day. Well, let's going!" and they sped off.

Syaoran smiled. He placed a mic on her car when they used to play spy on each other. She must have forgotten. But then, his smile dropped.

"Power? What did she mean by power? Ying Fa has magic inside her too?" he said to himself as he raced after them. Meiling didn't have magic, but Syaoran did, thanks to the family bloodline.

He reached another mansion which he recognized right away as Naoko's house. He saw Ying Fa's car and Chiharu's.

He saw the other 4 girls running out and he caught glimpse of the gorgeous pink-haired girl. She had a determined look in her eyes as she got into her car and blew dust as the others followed her towards Tokyo Tower. He turned his engine back on and followed them.

---------Near Tokyo Tower------------

Syaoran heard a girl's screams as he parked his car way behind the girls'. He hid behind some bushes and saw the Angels searching for the source of the noise.

"That way!" Ying Fa pointed to her left and ran. The other girls got out of their cars and followed her. As soon as they were at safe distance, he tailed them.

"Over there!" Meiling said as she caught glimpse of a red-haired man chasing after an aqua-green haired girl, who was getting tired from running. The girls ran off after them with Syaoran behind.

"No! Go away!" the girl said in fear as she found herself cornered. The man smirked as he began to walk towards her. She tried to back away but the stone walls stopped her.

"Nice little body you got, real cute." He touched her cheeks and she squirmed. He ran his hand down her waist down to her legs……when suddenly, a pocket knife aimed at his hand but missed in purpose, hitting the wall beside them. He jerked his hand away, turned around to see six girls, no older than 17 glaring at him with cold eyes of various colors. The woman in the middle, an emerald-eyed one smirked at him.

"You can leave her alone now." She said in a rather icy tone. He faced her and pulled out a gun. From his hideout (another bush nearby), Syaoran gasped and panicked.

Shit! That guy's gonna shoot her! I gotta save her!, he thought as he readied himself to burst into the scene when Ying Fa burst out laughing, much to his surprise.

"That's the best you got?" she smirked. "Guys, code green!" she cried.

"Hai!" 5 voices echoed as they ran towards the guy, who was now aiming at them. Syaoran was about to jump in, when the girls did a cartwheel and jumped, landing behind the guy.

"What the fuck!?" he reacted too late.

"Ruby, now!" Ying Fa commanded. "Hiya!" Meiling expertly knocked the weapon out the guy's hands with a swift kick. Syaoran was open-mouthed at witnessing this. He didn't knew Meiling was so skilled in martial arts! She stopped studying martial arts when they moved to Japan, or so he thought but now he knows she didn't after all.

"You bitch!" he raised his fist to strike Meiling, when he heard a faint click near his head and felt a cold, hard thing against his ear. He looked sideways to find Ying Fa aiming a gun at him.

"Do it and die." She growled. Syaoran looked at her gun. It was colored platinum with a gold barrel and a design that looked like a cherry blossom with an emerald in its middle.

"This gun is made of titanium. And its bullets are as sharp as diamonds. And I'm not afraid to drill one inside your fucking head." She threatened acidly.

"Hands over your head." Jade barked at him. The guy growled and did as she said. Jade turned to her pigtailed friend.

"Crystal……." She nodded.

"Sure." Crystal smiled mischievously as she reached inside her white cloak and pulled out a pair of handcuffs. She turned to Amber and winked. "Care to do the honors, girl?" she asked. Amber smiled and took the cuffs.

"Why, I would be glad to." She faced the guy. "Face the wall, hands behind your back. And don't try to do anything stupid or Ying Fa will make sure you won't live to tell the tale." She said. To make her point, Ying Fa pressed her gun against his head even more. The guy gulped and faced the cold wall with his hands behind his torso. Amber clicked the cuffs on him in a pipe near him and stepped back.

"Okeydokey. Set." She smiled in her triumph. Amethyst was taping the whole thing, again.

The girls laughed as they gathered around their leader, who still had her gun aimed at him. The shaken girl looked at them in open awe as the man struggled to free himself, but no dice. Ying Fa lowered her gun and smiled gently at the girl. She kneeled in front of her, the girl backed away in response. Ying Fa's soft laugh soothed her ears.

"It's ok; there's no need to be afraid of us. We are the Angels of the Light and we're here to save you. This man will no longer bother you or else he'll mess with us. You ok?" she gave the girl a hand. The girl slowly smiled and took it and Ying Fa helped her up.

"Thank you so much!" she bowed. Ying Fa bowed also. "Anytime. When you're in trouble, we'll be here. Take it as an Angel's promise. Take care!" she winked at her before turning around and leaving with her friends.

"Wow, I wish I was like her……." The girl whispered as she began to walk back home.

Syaoran was amazed at Ying Fa's skills and gentleness. A girl who protects others from harm by a special skill she developed. He felt himself even more attracted to this mysterious young woman. He saw the girls get into their cars and leave. He stood up and went to his car and drove off back to his home.

--------Sakura's House----------

Sakura sighed as she parked her car in the garage. She took off her pink wig and tucked it into her secret compartment. She already gave her cloak to Tomoyo for her to wash. She hid her gun inside her school bag and went inside her home.

"Oniichan, I'm home!" Sakura sang out as she entered the main hallway.

"Hey kaiju!" Touya's taunting voice was heard from the kitchen.

"SHUT UP! How many times do I have to tell you that I'M….NOT…..A….KAIJU!" Sakura said very annoyed. She loved her oniichan, don't get her wrong, but he is such a pain in the ass sometimes. Her 27-year-old brother poked his head out of the kitchen with a smirk on his face. Sakura gave him a glare. She then dropped it and looked around.

"Where's Kaho?" she asked.

"She's out with her friends. Since we'll be gone to China tomorrow." He replied. Sakura only nodded. Touya's wife, Kaho Mizuki was 27 and a very nice woman. Sakura really likes her. And since they're both business people, they travel all over the world.

"Cool, I'm going to my room. I wanna rest a bit before dinner." Sakura yawned as she went upstairs.

---------At School One Day------------

"Wow, you heard!? Chika was saved from this guy by some girls who call themselves the Angels of the Light!" Sakura heard one of the two girls chatting in front of her.

"Yeah! They are sooo cool! I also heard that their leader's really beautiful!" the other said.

"Uh huh, Chika says that she's very skilled too. She aimed a gun at the man in one quick move!" the first girl said. The second one gave a "wow".

"That's amazing! I wish I was like her!" the second said.

Sakura smiled as the girls walked into a classroom. Word about her Angels was already the school's biggest talk. How the girls here were saved by a woman with pink hair and her 5 friends.

"Good Morning!" Sakura said brightly as she stepped into the classroom. But she saw that it was empty.

"Oh? I must be too early, there's no one here yet." She said to herself.

"Wrong." A male voice whispered in her ear. Sakura did a quick 180 while getting a mechanical pencil from her jeans pocket and aimed it at the stranger's neck.

She stopped short when she saw a handsome face with deep amber eyes shaded by messy dark hair. It was Syaoran Li.

"Oh my god, I'm so sorry!" Sakura stammered as she withdrew her pencil. Syaoran smiled.

"Man, that's some unique kind of reflexes." He teased. Sakura felt her blood boil. Memories began to attack her. She turned to the classroom again and started to walk back in when a strong hand got a hold of her wrist. He yanked her and turned her around.

"Why are you always like this? What I have ever done to you?" Syaoran asked, a bit hurt. Sakura put her void face as she expertly twisted her hand free from his grip.

"Leave me alone. I don't associate with men I don't trust." She said coldly walked back in.

After class got started, Sakura couldn't help feeling guilty for being so cold towards him. She shook her head and stared at the boy who sat in front of her. To make matters worse, she sits behind him!

No, I won't get in with players of hearts! Those kinds of people will only bring my defenses down. And I trained myself to never lose my self-defenses after that day I lost everything……., Sakura stared out the widow and saw the cherry trees bloom.

Why she does gets all snappy when she's around me!?, Syaoran thought, not paying attention to the teacher, Terada.

He wanted to look behind him to the girl who is the most beautiful creature to him, but he didn't wanna get into a fight with her. When she nearly stabbed him on the neck as she aimed her pencil, it was proof enough that she as quick as a whip.

--------At Lunch-----------

"Man, the girls are sure getting popular!" Eriol laughed as he and Syaoran were at the school's backyard.

"Yeah, the girls all admire them." Syaoran said. Then, they saw a blond-haired guy with blue eyes walking near them; Ryu.

"Yo Ryu, still thinking when the Angels kicked you ass?" Syaoran laughed. Ryu glared at him and said.

"Yeah, joke all about it, Syaoran, but you'll see that at the end, I'll deflower each of those girls."

Eriol fumed at hearing this. He ran over to him and punched him straight into his face.

"You motherfucker! Don't you ever say that again in front of me!" he snarled at Ryu. Syaoran couldn't hold a laugh. Eriol sure was overprotective over Tomoyo. Eriol wants to be her first.

"My oh my, second time I see you on the ground, Ryu." A mocking voice came from behind Syaoran. He turned and saw Lila.

"Lila!" Ryu choked out. Lila turned to Eriol, and gave him a smile. "How's it goin' Eriol?"

Eriol smiled back. "Hey Lila."

"Hiya Syaoran!" she smiled at him. Syaoran only nodded. "Lila."

"Damn!" Ryu cursed. Lila looked down at him and smirked. "Aw poor baby…….Remember Ryu, if you try to break any other girl, the Angels will bring hell on your ass!" she warned.

Syaoran's ears picked up the word "Angels". "Did you just say Angels?" he asked.

Lila nodded. "Yeah, they saved me from Ryu here." She pointed down at him.

"Really?" Syaoran asked.

Lila said. "Yep! They're the bravest women I've ever known; especially their leader!"

A flash of light auburn caught Syaoran's eye. He turned to see Sakura walking nearby.

"Gotta go, later!" he said to Eriol and Lila as he went over to Sakura.

Sakura's eyes were getting heavy. She overslept the alarm again and she was still sleepy.

"Hey, Sakura!" a male voice reached her ears. She over to her side and saw Syaoran running towards her.

"Wassup?" he teased. Sakura reacted on her instincts again. She gave him her emotionless look as she said. "Nothing."

Despite being uneasy with her stare, Syaoran tried to lighten her up. "Gee, you sound like my mother ya know. She always looks at me like that." He joked.

The word "mother" struck a nerve in Sakura's heart. Tears were forming and were ready to spill.

Without a word, she turned and ran, leaving a confused Syaoran. "Hey what did I do wrong?" he muttered as he chased after her.

---------By A Cherry Tree in the Backyard-----------

"Sakura!" Syaoran said as he was tailing her, her speed was amazing! Finally, he managed to grip her hand and turn her around to face him.

A pair of glassy, teary emerald eyes was staring at his own. To him, she looked so beautiful. She looked like a sad, lost angel. "What's wrong, little cherry blossom?" he asked in a soft and caring voice as he reached out to touch her cheek. Sakura struggled to free herself from his iron grip.

"Nothing! Let me go!! It's none of your business!" she cried as she shut her eyes tightly.

"It is!" his strong voice made her eyes open and widen. Tears were streaming like rain.

Syaoran softened. "It is my business. I don't like seeing girls cry, especially really pretty angels." He wiped away a teardrop.

Sakura just stared at him, speechless for a moment. Then, she gave a small sob and lunged herself against him. Syaoran was startled by her sudden change in character, but he ignored the thought. Sakura gripped his white shirt as her tears were staining the fine cloth.

Sakura's hair had a sweet scent of cherry blossoms and Syaoran liked it. He felt awkward; for he doesn't know how to comfort a crying girl very well. He only did the best thing he could think of.

He wrapped his arms around her and pulled even tighter to his strong chest.

"Sakura……I know you don't trust me. But you can tell me what's wrong. I'm here to listen." He whispered sweetly to her.

"I miss her….." Sakura's sad voice responded.

"Her?" Syaoran asked. Sakura looked up at him.

"My mother……Let me tell you…….about my childhood up 'till the night I lost everything……" she whispered.

"?" Syaoran was confused. Sakura's eyes clouded even more as she opened her mouth again and began her story.
