Under The Cherry Blossom Tree: Chapter 3
Last Chapter
"You mean-"Sakura started when Yelan cut her off.
"Yes Sakura, you are the youngest and most powerful descendant of Gaia Amamiya. You are the only daughter of Kinomoto Fujitika and Amamiya Nadeshiko, sister if Kinomoto Amamiya Touya, the princess of the Kinomoto Kingdom. The one whom Nyoko was after. You are Kinomoto Amamiya Sakura."
Yelan closed her eyes preparing for the worse. It never came. Instead she felt two slender arms encircling her petite form. She looked up to see Sakura hugging her with tears trickling down her daughter's pale face.
"I understand mother. You may not be my mother blood, but you will always be my mother by heart." Sakura whispered still hugging her mother.
Yelan smiled. Everything will be okay. Yelan hugged her daughter, both form oblivious to the small smiling group looking at them. Sakura smiled and went beck to her seat beside her dear brother.
Yelan took a deep breath and started talking once again. She then turned to Tomoyo. "Tomoyo, you're like a daughter to me, and I know you should know the truth." Yelan started as Tomoyo scrunched up her eyebrows in confusion. Yelan sighed and continued to talk. "Tomoyo, I told you before that your parents died because of a fire, I was lying." Yelan started. That phrase caught everyone's attention. "Your parents didn't die because of a fire, they are killed. They are killed by Nyoko herself." Yelan finished as she saw Tomoyo's mouth drop.
"Why did Nyoko killed my parents?" Tomoyo asked, now tears are streaming down her face.
Yelan took a deep breath and sighed. "I guess I should tell you the whole truth. Tomoyo, your father, as we all know is Diadouji Ku Mien. But, the entire secret lies in your mother Tomoyo. In this whole entire Li Clan, I and the elders are the only ones who know this; your mother is Amamiya Sonomi." Yelan finished as collective gasps filled the room.
"What?" Tomoyo asked no believing her ears.
"Sonomi, your mother, are sisters with Amamiya Nadeshiko Sakura's mother, making you and Sakura cousins. Nyoko killed your mother because your mother is a descendant of Amamiya Gaia." Yelan explained. Tomoyo and Sakura looked at each other with wide eyes. Tomoyo smiled. She's not alone anymore; she has Sakura and her aunt and uncle. She's alone no more. Tomoyo got up and rushed to Sakura quickly hugging her. Sakura smiled and hugged her new found cousin back. The others smiled, happy for the two girls.
"Now, since the dark empire has risen once again, you six will have to journey to the Kinomoto Kingdom to help out." Yelan said catching everyone's attention.
"But mother, how can we fight a whole empire with just our swords? I mean, it took us tons of time to defeat just those ten ninjas, how can we fight a whole empire then?" Sakura asked as the other nodded in agreement.
Yelan smiled. "I guess more secrets will have to be revealed. Sakura can you please go get the pink book that has the crest in the middle?" Yelan asked and smiled. Sakura nodded and went up to her room. In the matter of minutes she went back with the pink book in her hands.
"Now, take out your star necklace." Yelan instructed. Sakura nodded and took out the necklace that matches the crest in the middle of the book. "Now, see that hole in the lock of the book?" Yelan asked pointing to a hole in the golden lock of the pink book. "Put the necklace in it." Yelan instructed. Sakura nodded and did as she was told. As soon as the necklace touched the book, golden light emitted from it. The lock slowly unlocked itself and the book started to open. The golden light became brighter as the book opened itself making the curious group shield their eyes. As the light died down, hovering on top of the book was a small golden looking stuffed animal with white wings and beaded black eyes.
"Hello!" The small creature greeted with a wide grin.
"A talking stuffed animal?" Syaoron and Meiling both asked looking at the creature.
"Watch it brats! I'm not a stuffed animal! I'm Ceroberus, guardian beast of the seal, guardian of the sun." The creature explained making ridiculous poses. "Now, who opened the book?" The creature asked with great interest.
"I did." Sakura answered taking the necklace out the hole and putting it back around her neck.
The creature's eyes grew wide as wings covered the small form. As the wings unfolded themselves it revealed a great looking lion. The lion crouched down and bowed. The group of teenagers looked in awe at the true form of the 'stuffed animal', while Yelan just smiled.
"At your service, Mistress." The lion said as it stood up.
"Mistress?" Sakura asked.
"Yes, Mistress. Clow have told me that whoever opened the book will be my new mistress, and you're the one who opened the book so you're my new mistress." The lion answered. "I believe your name is Sakura?"
"How do you know?" Sakura asked.
"Nadeshiko told me." The lion answered.
"My mother?" Sakura asked.
"Yes. Nadeshiko was the first one to open the book. But as soon as you were born, the book locked itself with the cards inside it." The lion started. "The faith of the word rests in your shoulders Sakura. We, the cards and I, promised that we will always be by your side helping you. We promise."
Stay tune for the next chapie!!!!! Please review!
