Lost Stray Lover
Full Summary: Sakura comes home one day, and to her surprise finds a loveable stray dog. This stray is actually Syaoran under a curse, but Sakura doesn't know this. She takes him in and takes care of him. Syaoran eventually falls in love with her but she doesn't even know who he is. Will he be able to break the curse to tell her how he feels?
A/N: I'm not good at writing romances, but I just got this idea one day and thought it would make a cute story. It's a little ironic because almost every fanfic I see is an S&S or E&T or T&Y (and so on) romance and I'd gotten so sick of it. Yes, they are a cute couple, but there's more to CCS than that. Almost all writers left out the magic, and that was one of my favorite parts. I have always loved magic. But, enough about me and my hysterical ravings; let's proceed with the story.
Disclaimer: Also ironic, cause I never liked these annoying disclaimers either. CCS ain't mine. Got it? Very simple.
Prologue
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~
Sakura is now a grown 20-year-old woman attending the University of Tokyo in Tokyo. She lives in a dormitory with a roommate named Kohaku. Her family still lives in Tomoeda but they come to visit and check up on her often. She's still a bit flaky in school but manages. Sakura is majoring in biology and hopes to become a veterinarian.
Meanwhile, Syaoran, a rebellious 18-year-old, has just graduated from Tomoeda High School. As teenagers usually do on such joyous occasions, he and his friends went out to celebrate.
On the night of their graduation Syaoran and his friends rode out in a truck to an unknown neighborhood. They cruise around doing small bits of vandalism to random passing houses.
At the end of the cul-de-sac was this big, two-story house. It was gray and spooky and looked very old. The house looked like the perfect spot to conclude their celebrations with one big vandalizing. They put the works on that house; toilet paper, silly string, dog poop, egging. Every traditional adolescent trick they could think of. After they were through with the house, it didn't look so bad. Like a life-size abstract art piece.
The boys all gathered together on the front lawn to gaze in awe at their creation. They were all laughing and high-fiving each other as if vandalizing a house were something to be incredibly proud of. And it was kind of amazing in a way. But perhaps, the funniest thing was the fact that for a few seconds, they actually believed they could get away with such a crime.
Inside the house, there was a tiny old woman sleeping. Amazingly, she was not awakened by the boys destroying her house exterior. However, when they started cheering and congratulating each other, that's when she stirred. Afraid it might be burglars, she immediately grabbed her wand. For little did they know, that old woman was a powerful magician.
She slowly, quietly crept down the stairs, listening carefully for any clues that might tell her who or what the intruders are. Their laughter and cheering told her that they must be kids, probably teenagers. Teenagers were always partying around her neighborhood, with their loud music and beer and cigarettes. It really irritated the woman that they had chosen to come specifically to her house to do such things.
One of Syaoran's friends had noticed that a light flickered on. This worried him. He quickly notified the rest of the group that something had roused in the house. They all ran for the truck but it was too late..
The door of the creepy old house flew open and out came the old woman. Her eagle eyes scanned the property. All of Syaoran's friends had already fled but they had left him to deal with her. Of course, she spotted him. The woman was enraged at him, for then she saw the full damage that had been done upon her house. At that moment, she skillfully cast a spell upon him.
A beam of light was sent straight at him and caught him in his tracks. The beam broke into a thousand sparkles that circled around Syaoran. Then they covered him head-to-toe and soon he was just a figure of light. The light shrank to the size of a little puppy. The light sparkles receded and faded away but what was left was a small puppy. It let out a few barks and the woman went back into her house, satisfied.
A/N: I'm really sorry if some things here are inaccurate. I don't know if Japanese kids graduate normally when they're around 18 years old. I don't know if they normally live in dorms when they're in college. I don't know even know if what they have are called "high schools." I don't know any of this because I've never lived in Japan. If there are any such errors please notify me through e-mail or reviews.
