Chapter 1

"You must send him back."

"Yes I know, he will be happy to go," Yelan sadly.

"But."

"But... I am hesitant to send him," changing to a different subject Yelan said," Is Melin to go with

him?"

Suddenly the door opened and Syaoran came in.

The girl faded into the darkness.

"Did not teach you how to knock?" Yelan said nonchalantly.

"Sorry, Mother. The Council of Elders just told me I was going back to Japan," Syaoran asked

shakily.

"You disturbed me to ask this?" Yelan answered.

"I apologize for interrupting mother, I hope you will forgive me for the intrusion," Syaoran replied.

"Yes you are,"

"And Melin,"

" I must decide that. Now leave."

"Yes mother." Syaoran said cheerily. Then he walked out of the room closing the door behind him.

"You will have them there in three days.

"So she can go," Yelan asked.

"Yes I think she can," she said, as though she had just realized it." Now I must get settled. Good bye."

"Yes Farewell," Yelan said in a distance voice.

"Hi Tomoyo," Sakura said cheerfully as she entered the room.

"Did you hear about the new transfer student," Tomoyo asked.

Sakura said she did not.

Just then Werneke-sensei walked in the room. " I would like to introduce a transfer student. Please come in."

A girl walked into the room. Her dark brown hair was held on the back of her head by two blue medium sized clips, she had yellowish brown eyes and a tenitive smile. "Hello my name is Darcy Natasha."

"Thank you will you please take a seat behind Daidouji," said Werneke-sensei.

Tomoyo raised her hand and Natasha went to her seat. Natasha was very quite during the lessons. Sakura noticed this and decided to talk to her at lunch. When lunch came Sakura went to look for Natasha, finally she found her where she and Tomoyo ate. There sat Tomoyo and Natasha talking.

Sakura walked over and sat "Hello, How are you."

"I'm very well. Thank you Kinomoto-san." Natasha said.

"Call me Sakura,"

Natasha was surprised at what Sakura had said. "If you call me Tasha," she said shakily.

Sakura was excited at her words and smiled broadly.

"Call me Tomoyo and I'll call you by your name."

"Alright," she smiled "I've never made friends so fast."

"Well I hope we stay friends for a long time," said Sakura.
