War With Fate
Prologue
A little summary before my story: Card Captor Sakura belongs to Clamp and it is about a young teenage girl accidentally opening a book called the Clow book. This book contained cards that were originally created by a magician named Clow Reed. When Sakura opened the book, she had to capture them all before they caused destruction. After she collected all the cards, she had to convert them all into her own cards to keep the powers going. My story is a continuation of what happened after they were converted. Hope you enjoy!
Chapter 1 – A Beginning to an End
"Bang!" was heard throughout the gym as a girl was thrown against a wall and fell unconscious on the floor.
The spirit took out its knife and put it over the girl, ready to stab her to death.
"SAKURA!" screamed a boy who watched helplessly through the invisible wall.
3 months earlier
"Whoosh!" as a soccer ball was kicked high into the air. With one swift kick, a 16-year old boy kicked it into the opponent's net.
"Beeeepp!" a whistle was blown signalling an end of a game.
"GO TEAM! OUR CAPTAIN, THE WOLF, WILL NEVER LET US DOWN!" a bunch of cheerleaders screamed. Then, the cheerleader captain, Sakura Kinomoto, did a back flip that caused everyone to applause loudly.
After the opponent team left, all the girls surrounded the boy screaming, "Syaoran! Good job on the last kick, you were sooo awesome!" but the boy did not pay the slightest bit of attention to them for he was already gazing at a particular girl from afar who was gathering her cheerleading batons.
When Sakura turned her head, she saw Syaoran looking at her and gave him a thumb up and her sweetest smile. Syaoran looked away blushing furiously and went to the change room to change out of his gym uniform.
Another victory…. thought Syaoran Li as he left the change room. Why do I always freeze in front of Sakura? sigh Syaoran was a very popular boy in his high school because of his amazingly good looks and all his talents. He knew practically everything including his skilled martial arts. All the girls in the school want to go out with him but yet, he didn't like any of them for his heart was already taken by a particular girl, Sakura Kinomoto.
Sakura was very beautiful, she had light brown hair that just touched her shoulders and attractive emerald eyes. However, Syaoran was not only captivated by her appearance, he also loved the way she cared about everyone, even her own enemies.
"SYAORAN, WAIT UP!" yelled a familiar voice.
Syaoran turned around just in time to see Sakura running towards him. As she approached, she jumped up and gave him a huge hug which turned him as red as a tomato.
"Good job today, I didn't even have time to talk to you after the game since you were soo popular with all the girls." Sakura exclaimed, giving him a wink.
"Wha.. what are you talking about?" Syaoran stammered. "I don't even care for those girls, you know I never liked all the attention anyways."
"Hahaha.. I know, I was only joking and plus you don't really have to explain to me, I mean I can't control who you like or who likes you. But no matter what happens, we'll always be great friends right?" Sakura said.
"…ya…" Syaoran replied, thinking is that all? sigh how can I ever let you know my feelings?
Sakura waved her hands in front of him. "Are you okay Syaoran? You must be really tired after the game, you seem so out of it."
Without thinking Syaoran stared at Sakura.
"Is there something on my face? Why are you looking at me like that?" Sakura said while blushing.
"Huh? oh nothing.. there's nothing on your face.. you're really pretty today." Syaoran smiled at her. Actually, you're always pretty.
Then before they could continue, the bell rang, signalling that class is starting soon.
"Well we better get to class if we don't want to be late." said Syaoran.
"Ya.. let's go!" Sakura replied, did he really mean it when he said I'm pretty? She secretly smiled at herself.
In Class
"Class, we have two new transfer students today. They just transferred from London. Please give them a warm welcome. Come on in Jane and Eron." the teacher said.
Jane and Eron were siblings with Eron being the older brother. Jane has long black hair and she was tall and pretty. At once, all the guys in the class were already captured by her beauty. Eron on the other hand has short black hair that was gelled. He was really handsome and gave all the girls his sweetest smile that could melt any of them.
Eron diverted his eyes to Sakura and winked at her. Sakura blushed and looked away. Already, Syaoran knows that he probably wouldn't like Eron much as he glared at him. Tomoyo Daidouji, Sakura's best friend, noticed the tension between Eron and Syaoran and laughed silently. Secretly inside, Tomoyo knows how Syaoran feels about Sakura and how Sakura feels about Syaoran, even though they never admitted to her. Being both of their best friends, she knows that one of these days, those two will confess their feelings to each other but until then, it was entertaining to watch how the two acts around each other.
That night
"Hahaha… my little cherry blossom, your end is nearing. Don't even think about trying to avoid us, because you won't be able to." two figures smiled evilly at Sakura. "It's fate that you and your sweet little wolf would die… separately. Hahaha… we will make you suffer and wish you had never became the Card Mistress."
"AHHHHHHH!" screamed Sakura who bolted up on her bed. It was only a nightmare. For normal people, they wouldn't have worried about a little nightmare, however, for Sakura, she had prophetic dreams. Even though she didn't want to think about it, she was still worried.
Somewhere else
"Oh my, I think we've scared her too much.. hahaha." said a figure in a menacing tone.
"She is too weak, this will be a piece of cake to steal the cards from her." said another figure.
Next day in class
"HEY SYAORAN! DID YOU MISS ME?" giving Syaoran a huge hug as Jane said this.
"Let me think.. NO! Why would I miss you?" giving her a weird look. "And please, get off me." as he brushed her off him.
"Hahaha.. it's okay, I know you missed me, but you're just too shy to say so." Jane smiled. Syaoran sweat-dropped at the comment.
"Good morning everyone!" said Sakura cheerfully.
"Good morning Sakura!" all her friends replied.
"Hello, how is my lovely cherry blossom today?" Eron said taking her hand.
"I.. I'm fine, thanks" Sakura blush a dark shade of red.
"Class, please settle down now. I would like to inform you that we will have a field trip to the carnival the day after tomorrow. So remember to pack a disposable lunch and bring some money just in case." said the teacher. By then, the class was so excited that they were not paying any attention to the teacher. Instead, they were all murmuring to themselves about the field trip.
At lunch
"Hey Sakura, mind if I join you for lunch?" Eron said, smiling sweetly at her. However, before Sakura could reply, Syaoran sat right beside her giving Eron no spot.
"Maybe next time…" Sakura said and sweat-dropped.
Eron glared at Syaoran and took a seat beside Tomoyo.
"So, is everyone excited about the trip tomorrow?" Chiharu, one of Sakura's friends, said.
"Did you know that the carnival first originated from Italy because they thought clowns should be respected…." said another friend, Takashi who liked to make up stories and lies about everything. Before he could continue, Chiharu dragged him away.
"Hahaha.. I guess Takashi still likes to make up stories." said Eriol, who was a reincarnation of Clow Reed, the magician who created the clow cards.
"Hehe…I thought he actually meant it." Sakura said.
After School
"Sakura, maybe you shouldn't hang out with Eron too much. I don't trust him. For some reason, none of the transfer students have a good intention. Well, maybe only Eriol… and Meirin." saying that quickly as he caught the death glare Meirin was giving him.
Meirin was Syaoran's cousin from Hong Kong. They originally have an engagement but they broke it because Meirin knew that Syaoran likes Sakura. It was hard for her at first because she likes Syaoran, but soon, she came to realize that love can't be forced and what's yours is yours.
"But maybe you're just being paranoid, Syaoran." Tomoyo stated.
"Ya, Eron seem really nice, and I want to get to know him. Even if he doesn't have a good intention, I believe I can make him change." said Sakura. Just as she said that, she felt something choking her.
"Help!" Sakura screamed.
"Sakura!" Immediately, Syaoran took out his sword and chopped the rope off.
"Are you okay Sakura?" Syaoran asked her with concern.
"I'm fine, thanks. This must be a new force." Sakura could feel an aura, but it was neither the Clow Reed's aura nor any other aura she had felt before. She just knew one thing – it wasn't good.
She quickly released her staff and took out the Sword card. "Sword!" and her staff became her sword. Both Syaoran and she tried to fight it off with a sword, but every time they chopped it apart, it resembled itself.
Suddenly, it wrapped itself around Sakura, making her hard to move. Syaoran didn't know what to do, he couldn't cut it nor burn it because then he'll hurt Sakura. And that is the last thing he would want to do.
Struggling, Sakura took out the Erase card. "Erase! Wipe this rope out with your powers!"
Then the Erase card that looked like a fairy erased all of the rope. The rope returned into its card form and fell to the floor. Then, it evaporated into black smoke.
"That was weird, it's a … card.." Sakura stammered in awe.
"That means our enemies have their own cards that are similar to Sakura cards." Syaoran continued.
"Are you guys okay!" Tomoyo and Meirin ran to them from their hiding place.
"Ya.. we're fine… but I'm confused." Sakura said. Cards? How could they be cards? I thought the only cards in the world were clow cards.
When they were walking alone, Sakura decided to tell Syaoran about her nightmare. "I'm scared Syaoran, what if my nightmare becomes true? I.. I.." Sakura was trying to hold back her tears. I don't want to lose you Syaoran.
Gently pulling her into a hug, "It's okay Sakura, no matter what happens, you'll never lose me. I'll always be here for you and protect you from any harm." Syaoran reassured her.
Sakura looked up at Syaoran's reassuring eyes and felt that nothing in the world could ever come in between them. I love you so much Syaoran, and I'm glad to know that you will always be here for me.
End of Chapter 1
What kind of hardships are they going to have to face? Will Sakura and Syaoran ever admit their feelings for each other? Keep reading on!
