Those of the Past Awake in the Present

Ch. 2: Rise

Meilin awoke to the sounds of movement in the room next to hers. Dragging herself up in a sitting position with her hands rubbing the sleep from her eyes she checked the clock. She had about ten minuets till her alarm started up. Rolling over she tried to go back to bed. I still have ten minuets I can sleep for a little longer. But by the time she started to fall asleep her alarm sounded. Just my luck, she thought and got out of bed.

She walked over to her dresser and found her new high school uniform that she had gotten yesterday before they got home. It wasn't much different than her last one. It was the normal sailor outfit but this time it was a midnight black color with a crimson red outline. It was nice and she liked it.

Once she was finished getting dress she looked herself in the mirror. Today she would meet Clow Reed. I wonder… I wonder if he would remember me. She sighed and touched the mirror, and the weirdest thing happened to it. It started to ripple as if it were made of water. Twirling her finger in it the ripples became bigger and wild. Taking her finger away from the mirror the ripples slowly faded and returned solid. So many secrets she held now… none knows but her and one other, if he remembers anyways.

"Meilin, come on its time to go, or would you like for the both of us to be late." Syaoran yelled from outside the door.

Meilin rolled her eyes, some things never changed. "Of course not! Hurry up and lets go." She said as she walk right passed him.


Upon arriving at school Meilin gaped at how large the high school truly was. It truly was a long school that reached about five buildings. I hope I don't get too lost. Side by side Meilin and Syaoran walked into the building and headed to the main office where she was told to pick up her schedule.

"Hello, I'm Meilin. I've come to pick up my schedule."

"Yes you're the new girl. Here you go I hope you enjoy this school very much. It is a good school and I'm sure you'll make friends fast." The lady at the desk said.

"Thank you. I hope I enjoy it here as well." With a bow she headed out the door and towards the end of the hall where Syaoran said he would wait for her.

"Did you get it?"

"Yes."

"Let me see it. Hmmm… it looks like we basically have the same schedule except art and journalism. So I can show you where to go. But since it's already too late to get to class and we have lunch in about 30 minutes why don't we just go to the library until then?"

"Sure why not."

As soon as they entered the library she felt the sudden energy of Clow Reed. Meilin glanced over at Syaoran to see if he noticed it; but he looked as if he didn't or was just ignoring it. She followed him knowing he knew his way around this maze of books. When he stopped he was in front of the ancient arts section.

"What are you looking for Syaoran?"

"Well there seems to be a new energy of magic floating into the air for some time, I just want to see if there's anything in these books that can identify it for me."

"New… magic?"

"Yeah, a sorcerer we fought a few days ago appeared and started talking about the start of a new magic, a pure magic that was born from and of magic itself. Don't know what that means but he started saying things like that."

"A pure magic that was born from and of magic itself…"

"You CAN'T! You hear me, you can't! The both of you can't do this! They won't allow it! Do you want to risk millions of people's lives over this?"

"Please just hear us out! We aren't going to harm anyone! So why can't we do this! It is OUR decision after all! NOT THERES!"

"If you do this a magic will be born! A magic that is pure, that will be born from and of magic itself! They won't allow this to happen! So please don't. Save yourself from the pain and don't do it."

"I- I…"

"Meilin, are you alright?"

"Huh? Oh sorry about that I just dazed out," Meilin said as she shook her head coming out of the memory.

"Alright… Its time to go anyway the bell for lunch just rang so lets go."

"Wow was I dazed out that long!"

"Yea I thought you fell asleep standing up!"

"Shut up, Syaoran!" Meilin said as they started walking through the library to go to lunch. But as they reached the door to exit the library someone was leaning on the side of the door.

A boy with short blue hair and glasses straighten and walked over to them.

"Hello Syaoran, and who may this be?" he said with a smile upon his face.

"Hello Eirol," Syaoran said with a sigh.
