Chapter 5 – The Leader of the Ravens

Cold coal eyes stared at the young beauty that was sleeping in the room by the tree the observer was sitting on. He stared at her every move with a certain longing. Sakura, the sleeping beauty shifted from her sleep as if feeling uncomfortable. Seeing her uneasiness, he jumped down from the branch and left the Li estate as quietly and safely as possible.

The door to the room silently opened and revealed a highly suspicious Syaoran. He scanned the room a few times before landing his eyes on the sleeping Sakura who was in a deep sleep. He walked into the room and rested on the same couch he had sat the previous night. He watched her sleep intently yet again. He never ceased to wonder why she could mesmerize him so. She was quite beautiful with her long honey tresses and emeralds for eyes.

He was startled from his observance when she started to thrash slightly while mumbling incoherent words. Curious of what she was saying, he settled on the chair beside her bed.

"Please don't leave…don't go…don't leave me all alone…Touya." Silent tears where trailing down her face and were absorbed by her pillow. Slowly, she started to sob uncontrollably. "Why do you have to leave me again?" Syaoran was shocked from her action. She was openly crying in her sleep about a guy that left her. Unable to control his unexplainable anger, he left the room as quickly as he possibly can.

"Not you too." Sakura said as the door slammed shut. As the door slammed shut, Sakura's eyes snapped open. It felt like a dream. Never in her life would she guess that she would end up at a base of a gang. Never in her life would she imagine she would become a hostage then saved by an obnoxious gang leader in one night.

Restless from her dream she just had, she sat up on her bed and reached for a glass of water only to find it empty. Slightly annoyed, she treads down the stairs to the kitchen. After filling her glass with cold water, she leaned on the counter to take a drink, only to find dark coal eyes staring back at her, like in her dream. Her glass slipped from her hands from the sudden encounter, touching the ground with a loud shatter. Unable to hold back her surprise, she let out a shrill yell before finding her mouth covered by the stranger's hand.

Recovering from her shock, she reached for the hand covering her mouth and twisted it causing the stranger to retreat his hand suddenly. Seeing the stranger startled by her reaction, she proceeded to kick him in the abdomen causing him to stumble into the kitchen table in pain. Strangely, the stranger did not fight back, but continue to block her attacks. Sakura was startled when the kitchen lights where switched on. Seeing her temporary distraction, the stranger fled the house by the kitchen window. Sakura reached the window, only to find the stranger nowhere in sight.

"Sakura, what happened…" turning around she found Tomoyo with another girl she met today, Meiling.

"That guy, he just attacked me for no apparent reason. Who was that guy?"

"That was Terry Hino. The new leader of the Ravens." The girls turned around to find Syaoran leaning on the doorframe.

"How long were you there?" Sakura asked suspiciously.

"Long enough to see you fight." He replied casually.

"And you didn't think of helping me. He just shrugged and left the room, leaving Sakura shaking with anger. "Urg. The nerve of him!" She too left the room, leaving a scheming Tomoyo and Meiling.

Last night, Sakura had found it hard to fall back to sleep after the fight in the kitchen. So, after cleaning up the kitchen, she changed into the wide strapped grey tank top and black sweat pants she brought from her house earlier yesterday and headed for the gym in the basement that Tomoyo and Meiling had shown her.

She grabbed a pair of boxing gloves on the way to the punching bag and started punching senselessly. Releasing the pent up anger she held for a certain someone. She abusively punched and kicked the bag until the chain holding it up gave away.

For a moment, she just stood there breathing heavily from the anger and exercise. That is until someone started to attack her. Unconsciously, she countered it by catching their fist, only to see Syaoran at the other end of the arm. "What do you want this time?" she said releasing his fist.

"Training." Without another word, he attacked her again. He sent her a punch at such a speed. She barely had the time to react. "Why the hell are you attacking me?" he continued to send her punches while she blocked it or dodged it. Getting frustrated by is sudden behaviour. She sent him a kick to his side. He didn't realise it until it was too late. He was too used to sending her punches, or rather he was concentrated on other things, he had not notice her frustrated kick. Blinded by anger, she started to attack him, sending him punches and kicks at a rapid pace. He dodged the first few punches and then countered her by grabbing her leg when she attempted to kick him again. He twisted her leg, sending her spinning in the air. He released her leg. She landed perfectly like a feline. She tripped him by swiping his feet off the ground. He threw his legs towards the air and did a back flip, landing a few feet away from Sakura. "You're good." He said, his breathing slightly ragged. Sakura's breathing was ragged too. Syaoran grabbed a folded towel on the bench and tossed it to Sakura.

"You're not bad yourself." She said, while catching the towel and wiping her sweaty face with it.

Giving her a slight nod, he headed out the door. "Weird guy." Sakura muttered to herself. She went to her room and headed for the showers. After a quick shower, she dressed herself with her school uniform she got from her house yesterday. She tied her navy blue tie before heading out the room with her bag slung on her left shoulder.

She bounded down the stairs and into the kitchen and saw Tomoyo sitting at the table sipping her orange juice. She grabbed Tomoyo's piece of toast munching it while Tomoyo protested with a 'hey'. "Tomoyo, can you drive me to school today?"

"Hmm… after you give me back my toast." Sakura gave her the puppy dog eyes, before Tomoyo reluctantly agreed. "Fine."

"Thank you! I don't know how I should repay you." Sakura said, happy she wouldn't have to walk.

"Make me toast." Tomoyo answered simply. "Anyway, meet me at my car in 20 minutes."

"Okay!" Sakura bounded out the kitchen, obviously happy about something other than the ride Tomoyo "offered".

Syaoran entered the room after Sakura left. "Tomoyo, I have to ask you a favour."

"Shoot."

"Can you look after Sakura, when she's at school?"

"You mean you want me to enrolled in Sakura's school?"

"Well, yes."

Let's hope it's not too sloppy or the fight scene was too crappy. I have very little experience in fighting or martial arts so… well, I hope you liked it. oopsys
