Sakura stared in alarm.
"Hey! Those are mine!" Sakura yelled and ran over to take her cards back.
Meiling, not knowing what they were (since her mother did not tell them yet), let Sakura take the two cards out of her hands.
Sakura hugged her cards in relief.
"What are those anyways?" Meiling asked. "Those battle cards people play with at school?"
Sakura looked in puzzlement, but answered. "Yea, I'm just taking them out so there won't be any of my stuff in YOUR room" Sakura said so Meiling wouldn't get curious.
Sakura ran up to her room. The two cards Sakura had gotten back were Fly and Mirror. It was a good thing that she had not put it back in her book after use.
"Sakura! Come down and make lunch!" Fongling yelled.
Sakura walked down the stairs to the front door.
"Where are you going?!" Fongling said when she saw Sakura leaving. "I told you to make lunch. Me and my daughters are hungry!"
"I'm going out to take a run" Sakura answered putting on her shoes.
"Who told you to go out for a run?!" Fongling asked. "I say I'm hungry and you will take off your shoes and make lunch!"
"I'm NOT going to listen to you anymore!" Sakura snapped.
Fongling laughed. "Oh I think you are. Your fathers life is on the line" Fongling said taking out a glowing piece of hair and then turning around and walking back into the kitchen.
Sakura took her shoes of quickly and followed Fongling. "What do you mean?!"
"I was the one who sent your father away on a trip, and his life is in my hands, and I don't know what I should do with it" Fongling laughed at her own intelligence.
Sakura took out the things needed to cook.
"I will do as you ask as long as you don't hurt my father!"
"Good, good. That's the attitude I like" Fongling laughed. "From now on, you are not to ever go out unless with my permission. Not even to school"
"What, I need to go to school!" Sakura whispered breathlessly.
"Well too bad. I already called the school to say you have gone with your father and you won't be going"
Sakura ran up to her new room up in the attic with tears in her eyes. Sakura spent the whole day cleaning out the attic between making snacks and dinner for her step-family.
That night, when her step-mother and step-sisters had gone to sleep, Sakura took out her two Star cards. She used Mirror to make a twin of herself. Then, used Fly to fly to Tomoyo's estate.
Tomoyo was fast asleep when Sakura pounded on her glass porch door.
"What is going on? Who is it?" Tomoyo asked thinking it was her room door. Then she realized it was coming from outside.
Tomoyo pulled her blankets around her and parted the curtains.
"Sakura!" Tomoyo quickly unlocked the glass door and pulled her best friend in. "What are you doing here?!"
With that, Sakura plunged into the whole events of the day.
"Fongling has magical powers? How can that be?" Tomoyo asked in shock.
"I don't know. I knew there was something wrong with her"
That night, Sakura slept in Tomoyo's room. It was very early when Tomoyo woke up to look at the clock. It read six-forty-five.
"Sakura, wake up! You have to go back home before Fongling wakes up!" Tomoyo whispered.
Sakura shot up and got dressed. Then Sakura flew out.
"Come back tonight, where you'll get a decent meal and a good bed!" Tomoyo shouted after her. "Good-bye!"
Sakura flew back into the attic in time. A few seconds later, Fongling called Sakura down to make breakfast.
After Meiling and Feiling left for school, Fongling went shopping. Sakura spent the whole afternoon cleaning the details of the attic.
Sakura tried to push the tall wooden clothes drawer to the corner, but she couldn't seem to move it. Sakura used all her strength and the drawer moved suddenly making Sakura fall.
"Ah!" Sakura gasped as she fell on the hard wooden floor. She looked up and noticed a large painting stuck on the wall that was behind the wooden drawer.
Sakura stood up and looked at the painting. It was a quite a big painting. It was a head taller than Sakura and wider than two people. It was a quite strange though. The painting was about the same size as the wooden drawer. It looked like the wooden drawer was purposely put there to hide the painting.
Sakura looked at the painting in awe. It was painted of a vast prairie with a mountain nearby. There were birds and sheep in it. Sakura had never seen of such a land, because Japan didn't have any prairies.
Sakura was so amazed that she held out her hand and touched the painting.
Sakura gasped. Her hand went right through the painting! Sakura felt the harsh weather of the prairies. It was so amazing! Sakura smiled and walked into the painting.
I finally got the next chapter out! Bet some of you thought that there would be the letter to the ball so soon eh? Anyways, feedback and any suggestions will be greatly appreciated, especially critical ones that can help me improve my writing and give me new ideas to work with. Well thanks and please review!
