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 2: An Angel's Painful Past
Sakura's eyes clouded even more as she opened her mouth again and began to her story.
---------13 Years Ago-------------
A little girl was wandering around her huge mansion, skipping happily. Her short, copper hair shone with the Sun's rays as her emerald eyes sparkled with her cheery mood.
"Daddy's gonna take me for a ride!" she sang out as she twirled, like a ballerina. A middle-aged man, with brown hair and eyes hidden by round glasses smiled gently at the small girl and stroked her hair.
"Yes, Sakura. We're going riding today!" he said. Sakura jumped up and down in delight. Suddenly, her father began to cough violently and collapsed to his knees. Sakura's happiness quickly melted into concern.
"Daddy!?" she grabbed his coat. Her father regained composure and smiled again.
"Oh, it was just a small cough, princess. I'm ok.".
"Fujitaka dear? Are you ok?" Sakura's beautiful mother, Nadeshiko appeared from the kitchen. Fujitaka smiled at her and nodded. Nadeshiko's eyes, the same green as Sakura's, were staring deep into his brown ones.
"Honey, you know you have to be careful with your asthma." She said, helping him up. He waved her off and said. "I know, Nadeshiko, but I promised my baby here to take her riding today." He smiled down at Sakura. "Right, baby?"
Sakura's smile returned. "Yeah!"
Nadeshiko laughed. "Alright, but be careful ok?" she eyed her husband. He kissed her and smiled. "Hai, aishiteru."
"Aishiteru." She replied with a smile of her own. Fujitaka turned to his child and
said. "Let's go, Sakura."
"Yay!" Sakura bounced ahead of him. "Come on, Daddy!" she called to him as she ran towards the car. Fujitaka smiled, but then, he began to cough again.
"Daddy!?" Sakura, now alarmed, dashed over to him. He coughed even harder and was gasping for breath. Sakura felt fear and began to shout. "Mommy!! Come quick! Daddy's……!" she was cut off when her father completely fainted. Sakura paled and screamed as loud as she could.
"DADDY!!!!"
-------At The Hospital---------
"Hmm, he's very, but very weak. I doubt he'll make it. I'm sorry, ma'am." The doctor said to Nadeshiko as he stepped out of his room, finished checking on her husband. Nadeshiko felt her tears flow freely down her face. "No……" she sobbed.
"Daddy….?" Sakura was beside her father in his sickbed. His breathing weak and barely audible. He was still coughing hard. The monitor that checked his heartbeats was very slow. Tears were staining Sakura's adorable face as her shoulders whacked with sobs and hiccups as she looked at her father. Nadeshiko came in and sat with Sakura.
"Fujitaka……." She held his hand as more tears came out of her usually-bright eyes. Fujitaka smiled and wiped them off her face. "Honey, make sure you take care of Sakura, ok?" he said weakly. Nadeshiko froze and shook her head wildly.
"Don't say that! You're not gonna die! You'll be ok……" she sobbed. Fujitaka shook his head. "No, I know it's my time now. Make sure you stay strong, Sakura and look after you mother, ok…..?" his voice became faint as he finished. Without warning, he closed his eyes one more time and never opened them again.
"Daddy?" Sakura whispered. Then, she heard the steady beep of the monitor and saw the straight line. "No!" Nadeshiko's teary eyes went wide as she began to tremble.
Sakura gasped and hugged her father as she shut her eyes tight and tears flowed from them.
"DADDY!!" she cried.
"FUJITAKA!!" Nadeshiko fell to her knees and began to cry uncontrollably.
-------6 Years Later--------
10-year old Sakura stared out her bedroom window one starry night. It's been 6 years since her father passed away, leaving Sakura, Nadeshiko, and her older brother, Touya in a world with a big hole in their hearts. Touya was away at school camp when their father died. He returned the day after Fujitaka died. Touya was angry that he couldn't be there so he could see his father one last time. He broke down and cried along with Sakura and Nadeshiko after the funeral. And now, he wasn't home anymore. He's now 20 and moved on with his life. Now Sakura was the one to look after their mother.
A light knock came to her door. Sakura tore her eyes from the stars and said.
"Yes?"
"Miss Sakura, dinner's served." One of the house maids called to her. Sakura stood up and answered. "Thanks, tell Mother I'm on my way."
She heard the maid's retreating steps and she stepped out of her room. She was already in her sleeveless white shirt and white PJ pants. She rushed downstairs and saw her mother, still as beautiful as ever. She smiled at her daughter.
"Hey, Sakura. Wanna eat cake tonight?" she asked. Sakura licked her lips. "Yum!" she grinned.
After dinner at 10, Sakura was half sleep, when she heard a loud crash from the main hall. She woke up with a start and tip-toed down to see what was going on. She heard her mother's soft cries from the living room and wondered what was going on. Sakura took her shortcut to the living room through the dumbwaiter near the end of the hall.
The dumbwaiter reached the living room but she remembered that the door was hid by the carpet that hung on the wall. Her mother's sudden shriek snapped Sakura out of her thoughts. She saw a hole in the carpet big enough for her to take a peek. She peeked through the hole and was horrifed by the sight that met her. Her mother was being pinned to a wall by a man dressed all in black. His black hair was shiny and was eyeing her mother's simple nightdress. He had his hand over her mouth as he touched her breasts with the other. Tears rolled down Nadeshiko's cheeks in fear as the man slid his hand down to her legs and slid under the dress. Sakura had the urge to burst into the room and kick his ass. After her father's death, she was trained for self-defense since there were many men who would try to abuse her mother and kill Sakura. But she then remembered that her mother was in this, so she decided to wait for the right moment. Though it pissed her off seeing her mother being abused by this bastard.
Sakura froze when she saw the man rip off the hem of her mother's dress and pulled down his pants. She saw her mother's eyes widen in horror. He smirked and whispered into her ear loud enough for Sakura to hear.
"You're too fine a creature for NOT to miss." His voice was deep and it sent shivers down Sakura's spine.
"No! Please no!" Nadeshiko pleaded. Too late, the man kept smirking and thrust himself into her all the way.
"NO!" Her cries were muffled by his hand. That drew the last straw for Sakura. She opened the little compartment next to her and pulled out a gun. The man was still having his little diversion raping her mother as his thrusts were harder and harder. For the look in her mother's face, Sakura could tell that she was in a lot of pain. But when she saw a small puddle of blood around her mother's womanhood and was staining her nightdress, it made Sakura go over the edge. She kicked the door open and aimed the gun expertly at the man.
"YOU! LET GO OF MY MOTHER RIGHT NOW!" she roared. The man released Nadeshiko and she fell to the floor, crying as the puddle grew bigger. Sakura felt her anger rise to a hellish level as she gave the man a dark glare whishing that looks could kill.
The man smirked at Sakura. His eyes were a deep shade of indigo. "Wow, a little girl who's' trying to be tough. This should be interesting." He drew his own gun and aimed it at her before Sakura could react. Sakura growled and took in her situation. Nadeshiko stood and screamed to Sakura.
"NO, SAKURA! JUST RUN!!"
The man turned to her and spat. "Shut up, bitch." And in one swift motion, he shot her in the stomach. Sakura gasped as she saw her mother collapse. Tears of anger blurred her sight, but she didn't care.
"DAMN YOU!" she aimed at his arm and fired. "Aaah!" the man groaned out loud as he felt a bullet hit him dead in the left arm, making him drop his gun. He ignored the bleeding and glared at Sakura.
"You little bitch!" he lunged at her, forgetting his gun. Sakura, being an expert athlete, she sprinted out the door and ran with the man tailing her.
They only got to the street when 5 police cars came towards them. Police officers came out and aimed their guns at the man.
"FREEZE!" they shouted as one. The man growled and held his right arm up in surrender since Sakura shot his left one. As the men were cuffing him, Sakura ran back inside and saw her mother dying in a large puddle of blood.
"Mommy!" Sakura cried as she lifted her mother. Nadeshiko smiled weakly at her daughter.
"You're so brave, Sakura…….keep it that way. Just like your father would've wanted." She said faintly. Sakura shook her head.
"Please! Don't leave me………like Daddy did…….." tears spilled into her white PJs as she saw her mother through misty eyes. Nadeshiko gasped in pain as she reached out and touched her face.
"Sakura, be strong……." She said with one last breath before her eyes closed and her head lumped to her side. Sakura's eyes widened. She sobbed and hugged her mother's body close to her.
"MMMMOOOOMMMMYYYYY!!!!!!!!
---------Back In The Backyard----------
"And that's what happened. Mother died and Touya came to live with me since I wasn't old enough to live by myself in the mansion. But, the bastard that murdered my mother escaped from prison. And so, I lost everything……….my father and my mother along with my happiness of being near them……" Sakura finished with a sob.
Syaoran was quiet as he listened to her past and felt really bad for her. The only thing he lost was his father, but his mother was still there and he was happy along with his 4 sisters. And worst of all, Sakura SAW both of them die. But, she saw her mother being raped and shot right before her eyes. He now understood why Sakura doesn't trust male strangers, because she gets reminded of the great trauma she suffered as a young girl.
Sakura was still crying in his arms. He couldn't help feeling that it felt RIGHT for her to be in his embrace.
"Hey, why was your mother targeted?" he asked. Sakura looked up at him.
"I'm a multi-rich heir. My mother was the most beautiful creature anyone can come across. Many players in looks wanted her for lust and the extra money only." Sakura explained.
Then realization hit Sakura hard. She was spilling her heart, her memories to a PLAYER himself, one that she couldn't bring herself to trust. With a quick move, she pushed away from his warm embrace.
Ignoring the feeling of wanting to be in his arms again, she began to walk backwards.
Syaoran, who was startled by her action, looked at her in concern. "Sakura?" he said.
Sakura backed away even further and stammered. "I-I'm sorry! I-I-I…….s-shouldn't have told you my past. THIS IS NOT RIGHT!" she turned on her heel and ran, leaving a confused Syaoran.
"Sakura!!" he called after her, but she ignored him and kept running towards the building.
---------Behind The School----------
"What do you want, Ryu? I was busy studying!" Naoko said annoyed as she tossed back her brown hair in frustration. Ryu smirked at her and eyed her fine body. It was real cute, but not as hot as that pink-haired girl's.
"You're one of them aren't you? You're Jade." He said. Naoko wasn't the least surprised. She knew that their identities would be known soon, as long as Ying Fa's was safe, they would take those consequences.
"Bravo, yes I am." She said calmly. Ryu eyed her. "Then you must tell me……" he closed the gap between them and grabbed her shoulders. Naoko gasped and struggled to get free, but he was too strong.
"Who's Ying Fa?" he demanded. Naoko shot him a glare and said. "Ha! You're way too fuckin' stoned if you think I'm gonna tell you!"
Ryu slapped her. Naoko winced but managed to ignore the pain.
"Tell me, Naoko!" he barked. Naoko had a straight face. "Fuck you." was her answer.
"Then you leave me no choice……." He said as he lifted her school skirt. Naoko thought desperately.
GUYS, HELP ME!!!, a faint glow was inside her diamond-shaped, jade earrings. Ryu was about to slide his hand up her legs when he received two blows. One on his back and another one between his legs. He released Naoko and groaned as he kneeled to the ground in pain. Two figures stood behind him.
"Meiling!" Naoko cried with joy, but her look changed to a deep blush when she saw the other person.
"M-Minoru!?" she sputtered. Minoru blushed and said. "You ok, Naoko?" he was in great concern for his crush who was about to be raped by a cold-blooded bastard.
Naoko nodded shyly and said. "Yes."
"Go to him, Naoko." Meiling's red eyes burned like hell fires as she neared Ryu. Naoko got quickly to Minoru's side and he pulled her into his arms. Of all people in her world, the one she desired most was the hottie that was holding her; Minoru Sukazawa. The man she's loved since the beginning of high school. Minoru had a nice body with sandy-blonde hair with hazel eyes. She was totally into him. She embraced him tight, but turned her head to see what kind of whoop-ass treatment Meiling would give him for trying to rape her.
Meiling Li was one of the wildest fighters of the gang, she's right besides Tomoyo below Sakura. The girls know that Sakura's the best fighter, but she trained Meiling and Tomoyo in her hard-core style. Meiling can be the devil in female version. If you piss her off, you're in deep shit. She's way gentler compared to Sakura, she has a demon side that shouldn't be messed with.
"So Ryu, didn't learn from the way Ying Fa kicked your ass?" Meiling tks-tsked. Ryu glared at her. "You think you're so strong, Ruby."
Meiling raised an eyebrow and turned to Naoko with an evil smile.
"What you think, Naoko? Humiliate or kick ass?" she asked. Naoko smiled mischievously as she said.
"Humiliate."
-------Minutes Later--------
Meiling stood near the High School entrance with Naoko and Minoru. They were right in front of a tree that for some reason, it had a rope hanging from it. She held a megaphone in her hand. She looked at Naoko, who nodded. Meiling silently laughed at what was gonna happen. She turned her megaphone on and shouted to the passing students.
"YO! COME TO TAKE A LOOKSIE!" she shouted. The students turned to them and neared them. Tomoyo (who had her cam with her as always), Rika, Chiharu, and Eriol stepped out of the growing crowd.
Tomoyo neared Naoko and asked softly. "What the hell's goin' on?"
"Naoko was nearly raped by Ryu." Minoru answered for her. Tomoyo, Rika, and Chiharu's eyes burned in anger as they heard this.
"Where is he!? I wanna beat the living shit out of that asshole!" Rika cracked her knuckles.
Naoko laughed. "Watch and see."
As soon as they had enough crowd, Meiling took charge again. She turned off the megaphone and smiled. Syaoran, who was in the middle of the crowd was still wondering about Sakura. She ran off inside their classroom and stayed there, knowing that she has EVERY class with him. But what he wanted to know now was what the hell his cousin was up to.
"Hello! We have something for y'all to see!" she turned to Naoko and winked. Naoko nodded and tugged the rope.
"WHAT THE…….!?" was the reaction of everyone as they saw Ryu, bare naked except for his underwear, which was giving him a wedgie; was hanging from the tree, tied up and had an apple in his mouth closed with tape. Tomoyo turned on her camera and began recoding with a smile on her lips.
"Ta-daa!" Meiling said as she pointed at Ryu.
Tomoyo and the rest of the Angels were open-mouthed at seeing him. Then, Rika gave a snort and cracked up, followed by Tomoyo, Chiharu, Eriol, Minoru, and Naoko.
Then, the rest of the school burst out into loud laughter and hollers.
"Baby Ryu got whooped by girls!" One of them taunted. Syaoran, who was trying to hold in his laughter, finally cracked. Tears formed in his amber eyes as he laughed OUT LOUD with the rest.
"What's GOING on!?" a female voice, as clear as crystal, said. everyone shut up and looked back to see Sakura.
"Hey girl!" waved Meiling. Sakura made her way through the crowd and she stopped short, beside Syaoran (who was in front of the mob) when she saw Ryu. A smile tugged at her lips.
"Eheh…….." a small giggle escaped her lips. Then, she threw her head back and hollered with laughter. Then, the rest of the students joined her. Ryu, whose face was deep red from embarrassment was dearly wishing to strangle Meiling for this. Sakura laughed as walked beside her friends. She stopped her laughter for a second to only say.
"Man, Ryu, you're sooooo famous, you can pass for a clown!" she began laughing her ass off again.
-------After School---------
"Man, Meiling you really did it this time!" Sakura laughed as the 6 girls were heading home. Meiling winked at her.
"Aaaannnndd, is that a bad thing?" she asked innocently. Sakura shook her head before cracking up again.
"Hell no! That was the most HILARIOUS thing I've ever seen in my life!" she said between giggles.
"Yeah!" the others agreed. Tomoyo pointed to her cam recorder and giggled. "I must say, I've always admired your wild streak to humiliate people. And the good thing is…….I got it in film!"
"Whoo-hoo! That means we can see it over and over again, just to laugh our asses of!!" Chiharu said. The others nodded with laughter. Naoko suddenly turned to her friends.
"Guys, guess what!?" she cried. Meiling smiled. "Minoru Sukazawa asked you out?" she guessed. Naoko was open-mouthed like the girls.
"How do you know!?" she gasped.
Meiling smiled again. "Duh! I was with him when we saved you remember? He told me he was about to ask you out today when I heard your cries on my earring." She said.
"Nice technology of Rika's. Giving us these earrings that can send cries of help to the others. And it doesn't have a limited range! I gotta give ya a bonus, Rika!"
Sakura raved as she toyed with her diamond-shaped, emerald earrings. Rika bowed and smiled.
"My pleasure!" she cracked.
The Angels shared another laugh as they kept on walking home.
---------Meiling and Syaoran's Apartment--------
Syaoran laughed as he entered the apartment. He couldn't believe Meiling was wild enough to pull those kinds of stunts. He laughed harder. Ryu sure as hell looked FUNNY in the wedgie. Looks the Angels took good revenge on him for trying to rape Naoko. And now Minoru's going out with her. Adds to the "Dating the Angels" Club. Eriol' going out with Tomoyo and Minoru with Naoko!
Well, also count Terada-sensei, who's actually engaged to Rika.
Syaoran sighed as he plopped down the couch. Takashi likes Chiharu and Kiyoshi's in love with Meiling. Basically, each of his friends is in love with the Angels of the Light.
But, Ying Fa was left. Sure, Syaoran liked her, but he also liked Sakura.
Wouldn't be NICE if Ying Fa and Sakura was the same girl?, he thought as he closed his eyes and let his mind replay the memories.
When he first saw Ying Fa. Her pink hair flew over her shoulders as her eyes……. He stopped short.
Her eyes…….emerald-green. Like Sakura's, he tried to grasp the faces when……...
"Syaoran-baby, I'm hooommeee!" Meiling's singing broke his chain of though. He looked up and saw his crazy cousin make her great entrance by throwing her jacket and bag aside.
"Welcome home." He said. Meiling laughed. "So, what you think of my little show earlier today?" she teased. Syaoran smiled. "Pretty good. Though you surprised me. I know you're crazy, but I didn't realize you're THAT insane to do that little "show"." He laughed. Meiling winked at him.
"Life's full of surprises, cousin." She said innocently. She hummed as she marched to her room. Syaoran shook his head with a smile.
"Crazy." He said under his breath.
-------Tomoyo's Mansion--------
"Hey Eriol, where you think it'll a nice dance club for me and the girls to go to?" Tomoyo toyed with one of her gray curls as she asked her boyfriend on the phone.
In the other line, Eriol raised an eyebrow. "Don't tell me you're gonna go party because of today?" he asked.
Tomoyo giggled. "Yeah, and after all, we haven't partied since we first started the Angels of the Light. We have a right to have fun, ya know!" she whined, making Eriol chuckle.
"True, true…….hey, what about this new dance club called "Dark Wolf"?" he suggested. Tomoyo nodded.
"Sounds wild! Sure, thanks! I'll call the others to inform them." She whooped. Eriol made a serious face as he said.
"Make SURE you bring your guns ok, Tomoyo? Just for my peace of mind."
Tomoyo's eyes softened as she heard her boyfriend sound so concerned over her. She felt her heart melt. She smiled and nodded.
"Alright, koi! For your sake." She said. Eriol sighed in relief. "Great, well have fun."
Tomoyo smiled again. "Thanks, love you!"
Eriol smiled back. "Love you more, my Amethyst." And hung up. Tomoyo sighed dreamily as she hung up too. God, did she love him! She quickly grabbed her purple cell phone, especial for calling the other Angels and dialed Sakura's number.
"Yeah?" Sakura's bright voice answered her.
"Emerald, wanna take the girls out to party tonight!?" she cried in excitement. The idea made Sakura's spirits lift.
"Sure! Why not!? Call Rika, Chiharu, Meiling, and Naoko and tell them! Gotta get ready! Remember, code color!" Sakura said.
"Hai, Sakura-sama! Ja!" Tomoyo hung up. She turned on her phone directory and got Meiling's number.
---------Back At The Apartment--------
"Man, I feel like partying tonight!" Meiling said as she and Syaoran were doing some stretching.
"Oh yeah, me too!" Syaoran gave her a goofy grin. Then, Meiling's cell rang.
"Ooooh, hot line!" Meiling jumped up and grabbed her phone.
"Yo!" she greeted. She was quiet for a moment before her face lit up and smiled wide.
"OH! Tell Emerald she's the LIGHT OF MY LIFE! Hell yeah I wanna go! Okay, I'll pick you up and meet at Jade's as usual. Okay, ja!" she hung up.
"Was that Tomoyo?" Syaoran asked as he got to his feet. Meiling grabbed a towel and wrapped it around her neck.
"Yeah, she said party time tonight at Dark Wolf's!" I gotta get ready!" Meiling ran to her room.
Syaoran realized something. "If the whole gang's goin', that means Ying Fa'll be there too!?"
Minutes later, Meiling remerged. She wore a tight, black, leather bellbottom jeans with a red tube top with the words "FOX HOUND" in black letters. Her buns had red ribbons as she wore black combat boots. She looked ready to party and kick ass.
"How do I look?" she winked at Syaoran.
"Good." He said with a smirk. She's ALWAYS wearing wild outfits.
She picked up her car keys and she pulled out two guns from her jacket, getting a gasp from Syaoran.
"YOU CARRY GUNS TOO!?!?!?" He exploded. Meiling looked at him funny and said.
"Yeah, since guys can try to rape us, we might as well be prepared. After all, Ying Fa carries guns too." She made her point.
"Don't wait up, Syaoran-baby! We'll be at Dark Wolf's all night! Nighty-night!" she left.
Syaoran was speechless. He thought of what could happen to Meiling and the girls in such a DARK place.
He grabbed the cordless phone and called Eriol.
"Yeah, hello?" came his cheerful voice.
"Eriol!? We have to go to Dark Wolf's! Call Takashi, Minoru, Kiyoshi, and Terada-sensei! I got a feeling that the girls won't be safe tonight!" he exclaimed.
Eriol agreed, also having a bad feeling. "You're right. The girls may have their guns, but I forgot that other gangs go to that place! Get ready and we'll take Minoru's van! See ya!" and hung up.
Syaoran definitely had a bad feeling about the girls going there alone.
--------Dark Wolf Dance Club--------
"We're here!" Tomoyo whopped as the girls were lining up at the entrance.
"You look good, Amethyst!" Naoko said. Tomoyo wore a purple off-shoulder shirt that exposed her white belly along with black, baggy jeans with chains wrapped around her waist. Her wavy hair in a loose braid.
"But look at Ying Fa!" Meiling cheered with the rest as Sakura blushed a bit. She had on a pink, strap shirt that had a pretty LOW cut to expose cleavage along with a short, dark green, leather skirt with lace up, knee-high boots.
"Guys!" Sakura whined as she felt her face grow hotter.
---------Penguin King Park------------
"You wanted to see us, Ryu?" a young man asked as he and other 4 were standing behind Ryu.
"Yes, my father and I wanted to ask you to join our little party. In return, you get to have a girl with a stacked body." Ryu turned to them.
"That's right." Another man, stood next to Ryu. His deep indigo eyes were shaded by his long, black hair. He had a cast on his left arm.
"Mr. Namura? How you got that cast on your arm?" another of the guys asked. Namura stared at them and said. "Let's just say, a brave little girl had the guts to shoot me.
"You guys in?" Ryu's impatient voice made them turn pale.
"YEAH!" The guys chorused. Namura smirked at Ryu. "Very well, from now on, we'll be Hell Dragons! We will take revenge on those girls!" he declared, getting a cheer from the men. Ryu stared at the sky and smirked.
They can have any of the girls, but Ying Fa's MINE!, he mentally declared.
---------Back At Dark Wolf's---------
"Wow, I better give Eriol a proper reward for telling me about this place. It's soooo cool!" Tomoyo cheered as the girls made their way to the dance floor. Lights of various dark colors flashed around the room with the tempo of the loud music.
In the DJ stand, a huge drawing of a black wolf with glaring red eyes was shinning on dark purple light.
Sakura turned to her Angels and flashed them a mischievous smile.
"Anyone up for group dance?" she challenged. Meiling smiled.
"Hell yeah, it feels like it's been AGES! What'cha say girls!?" she asked the others.
"Hai!" they chorused. And they began to dance.
"Hmm, check out those babes!" a man with long, brown hair said to his mob of friends as they all sat in the balcony above the dance floor.
"Yeah, I like the one dressed in red." Another said, licking his lips hungrily as he stared at Meiling's smooth curves as she danced with the Angels.
"The purple one is mine." A third one said, eyeing Tomoyo.
The brown-haired man said. "I got my eyes one that pretty pink one. Can't wait to get my claws into her fine body." he nodded towards Sakura.
"Emerald, we got some dudes watchin' us." Meiling whispered to Sakura as they were dancing back-to-back. Sakura glimpsed and saw cold, dark brown eyes staring at her as if he wanted to take off her clothes visually. Sakura felt her blood boil in defensive mode again.
"Girls, remember code yellow." She said quietly to her friends as she did a sway of her hips.
Chiharu turned serious. "Be careful when it comes time to use the guns." She said.
Tomoyo nodded. "Good memory. Have your weapons at ready, but don't draw them yet." She said.
"Ok." Rika said.
"You got it." Naoko nodded. Suddenly, the music stopped and the other dancers cleared the dance floor.
"Hoe?" Sakura looked around, a bit nervous. "Stay together girls, circle." She hissed to the others. The girls nodded and formed a circle,
"Well, I must say, I've never seen such cuties in here before." The man said as he neared the girls with some other men behind him.
"The crone and his cronies." Sakura said sarcastically. The man smirked at her.
"Ohh, a sharp-tongued one eh? I like that." He snapped his fingers. The girls heard the clicking of guns and saw others stepping into the lights. The Angels gasped silently, their hands on their purses, where their guns were.
The man got closer to them and asked. "So, which of you fine girls is the "leader"?"
Sakura gave him a hard glare. "I am," she spoke in a straight voice. He raised an eyebrow at her.
"Not surprised. You're clearly the prettiest." He reached to touch her. Sakura reacted quick and punched him hard.
"DON'T MOVE!" The men cried as they neared their guns at them. The man wiped the blood off his mouth and smirked at her again.
"A feisty one. I like that." He was about to touch her again when a sudden click gave off on his head.
"Don't move." The person threatened him. The other gunners turned the attention to the man behind their boss and Sakura saw their chance.
"Now!" she cried. The Angels of the Light drew their guns and aimed at different people. Sakura drew her twin platinum guns and aimed them at the man.
"At the least don't shoot me!" the mystery guy said as she stepped into the light with the man he was aiming his gun at.
Sakura nearly dropped her guns at the sight that met her eyes. A handsome guy with messy brown hair and mesmerizing amber eyes was the one who had the man in his mercy.
SYAORAN!!, her brain screamed.
"Rika!" one of the others who had their guns aimed at the gunners said. Rika gasped.
"Sensei!"
"Chiharu!" another guy said. Chiharu was as surprised as Rika. "Takashi!?" she gasped.
Sakura quickly regained her composure and said to Meiling.
"Ruby, blind!"
"With pleasure!" she dug out a sphere from her purse and threw to the floor. The sphere exploded, releasing heavy, blinding gas.
"I can't see!" one of the gunners coughed.
Syaoran was confused and was looking around for Ying Fa when a warm hand suddenly grabbed his. He squinted his eyes and saw the emerald-eyed beauty. She had a serious expression mixed with gratitude.
"Come on, let's get outta here!" she pulled him towards the exit. He noticed how skimpy her outfit was.
The first thing that greeted them was the shrill sound of sirens.
"Shit, police." Sakura cursed.
Eriol was standing beside Tomoyo front of Minoru's black van.
"Ying Fa, what bout we split up!? We'll meet at my place at 12:00!" he grabbed Tomoyo's hand and got her into the van. Sakura nodded and took Syaoran's hand.
He blushed as he felt her warm hand close on his.
"Let's go. You're ridding with me, hero." She led him towards her car. "See ya there!" she shouted to Eriol as she got on.
Syaoran said nothing as he got into Sakura's hot ride. Ying Fa turned the car on and winked at him.
"You might wanna buckle up. This baby blows the wind." She smiled. Syaoran blushed, nodded and did what he was told.
"Whoaaaa!" he cried as Sakura hit the pedal as they sped off. "Whoo-hoo!" Sakura cheered.
---------A Place In A Corner Of Tomoeda----------
"Where are we?" Syaoran asked Sakura as they parked in a solitary lot. Sakura smiled at him.
"This is my getaway." She stepped out of the car and walked towards the lake that reflected the full Moon.
"Thanks for saving us, back at the club." She smiled gratefully. Syaoran felt his heart quicken as he saw the night's lights taking their effect into her. The silver glow made her pink hair almost silver and brought out more the glow of her green eyes.
"No problem." He said shyly. "What's you name, hero?" Sakura asked, although she already knew who he was.
"Um, Li. Syaoran Li." He answered. Sakura always liked his name,, it sounded right for him.
"Syaoran…….Little Wolf?" she guessed. Syaoran smiled at her. "Yeah, you're pretty good." Sakura's breath got caught up in her throat as she saw his sexy smile. She shook her head and kept her cool.
"How did you find us?" she asked.
"Well, since Eriol sensed that Tomoyo would be in danger, he called us to go to the club with him." Syaoran said.
Sakura chuckled. "Eriol has a keen wit."
"He sure does." He agreed.
"As you may already know, I'm Ying Fa." She took his hand and shook it. "Nice to meet you, Syaoran."
"Me too." He blushed. He was cursing in his mind. Damn! He could feel his face grow hotter every time the pink-haired goddess smiled at him or looked at him with her stunning eyes. He felt more attracted to her.
"No wonder you're the leader. You're pretty sexy and know how to use the guns." He complimented her. Then, he realized what he had just said. He reddened and looked away, not wanting to see her reaction. Sakura was surprised on how honest he sounded when he said that. She no longer felt alarmed in his presence; she felt…….safe, in control, like she can trust him.
Without thinking, she got closer to him and touched his face, making him look into her eyes.
"Thank you." she whispered. Syaoran looked at her and felt his instincts take over him. He wrapped his arms around her slim waist and pulled her to him. Her eyes never left his, as if they can just spend their whole lives staring into each other's eyes. He slowly bent his head down. His eyes gazing at her inviting, pink lips as he neared them. Sakura felt her heart pound faster as she fluttered her eyes shut, waiting for his lips to touch hers
The Moon's glow shone over them as their lips finally touched in a kiss full of emotion that triggered a hidden passion inside them.
