I'm getting more and more reviews. I'm so happy. I thought this fic would get about the same number of reviews as my other fics. But I guess I was wrong, since this fic is doing better then the others. Please keep reviewing. The reviewer responses will be at the end of the chapter.
Chapter 7
Sakura's POV
"I hate school," I said walking down the stairs with Jade.
"You and me both." Jade replied putting her hair up into a braid. "Mornin', Syao-kun."
"Morning, Jade, Sakura," He said blushing.
Jade laughed and I looked at her clueless.
"What's so funny?" I asked lifting my schoolbag up onto my shoulder.
"Nothing." Jade responded quickly, "I just remembered something Drave said a few days ago."
"Oh," I said not believing her in the least.
(I guess I forgot to mention, Sakura is not dense in this, she just like everyone else)
We walked into the dining room and Jade plopped down next to Syaoran, and I sat next to her, beside Mei Lin. Jade downed the orange juice and started to eat the toast. As I ate the eggs, a guy came in from the hall and sat down across from Jade, picking up the orange juice as he sat.
"Didn't expect to see you eating with us, would have thought you would have been at work." Syaoran told him.
"Don't have to be in till 9 o'clock." He replied, starting to eat the eggs.
"Shiro, this is Sakura." Jade introduced, pointing at me. "Sakura, this is Shiro, my cousin. He's married to Xiefia."
"Nice to meet you Sakura." Shiro said, smiling at me.
"Likewise, Shiro." I responded.
"Shiro, what are you getting Xiefia for her birthday?" Jade asked, looking around to make sure she wasn't around.
"Why do you want to know?" he asked.
"So I don't get her the same thing." Jade replied easily.
"I'm getting her an amethyst and diamond inlayed choker." Shiro answered, softly, leaning across the table to tell her.
"Wait, isn't that what you were looking at when we went to the mall to look for a present for mother?" Syaoran questioned and Shiro nodded.
"Then I know just what to get her." Jade mused, before turning to me, "Up for a little shopping adventure after school?"
"Sure, I need to get some new earrings anyway." I answered smiling at my mom when she came in.
"Good morning everyone." She greeted sitting down near Yelen.
"Jade we have to go or we'll be late for school." Syaoran said standing up suddenly.
"Oh right," Jade said getting up. "Bye, Auntie Yelen, Kinomoto-san, Shiro. See you all later." Jade said following Syaoran out the door. "Sakura you coming?"
"I'll be there in a sec." I called to her getting up. "Bye, everyone." I ran out the door, following Jade down the hallway where she stopped near a picture and whispered something before heading back down the hall to the garage.
"Syaoran, you can ride alone today, seeing has how I have to go shopping after school. Ja." Jade called to him before getting into a 2004 black Mercedes-Benz convertible.
I got in on the passenger side and barely shut my door before Jade pulled out of the garage and out onto the street. Jade reached over and pulled on her seatbelt, before pushing the button to put the roof down. I grabbed my seatbelt and put it on, fumbling a little because of the fast speed.
Jade's POV
After about 20 minutes we pulled into the school parking lot and parked beside a red Porsche. I shook my head and got out, letting my seatbelt fling against the door. I looked back and saw Sakura getting out, before almost slamming her door shut. I cringed at the contact of the door to the frame. I shook my head, pulling my backpack onto my right shoulder. Sakura stopped in front of me and then turned breathing heavily.
"We have company." She said and I peaked over her shoulder to see Tomoyo, Rei, and Naoko walking towards us, both with evil looks on their faces.
"I suggest we run to where my friends are, they'll protect us." I offered, grabbing her hand and pulling her towards the fountain. "Pretend you didn't see them."
"Hey, over here Jade." Eriol shouted from his perch on the ground next to the fountain. "Hi Sakura."
"Sakura, Jade." Drave acknowledged, as he dug through his backpack.
"Eriol, Drave." Sakura replied, plopping down right near Drave.
"Hey." I greeted sitting down at the edge of the fountain. "Are you guys going to prom?" I asked.
"Don't know." Koji replied, coming up behind me.
I jumped, "don't scare me like that Koji, remember the last time you did?"
Everyone laughed, remembering what happened. I glared at them and Koji moved away a few steps. I turned my head towards Sakura and saw her talking to Drave. Drave was smiling and I frowned.
"Yes, I remember, I was limping for a week." Koji replied sitting down beside me, before putting his arm over my shoulders.
I leaned into him and saw Sakura look at me in amazement. I smiled at her and made a motion with my hands pointing towards the stairs. I saw her look over there and she blushed. Drave followed her gaze and he growled. I glanced over there and saw Syaoran watching us, with a frown on his face. Koji shifted and I slipped backward slightly, heading ever nearer to the water.
I smirked before saying "Oh, I forgot, I have to get something in my locker. Sakura why don't you come with me." I stood up fast, and took a step forward hearing the sound of a splash. "How was your bath?" I asked turning towards Koji.
"Cold," he answered getting up.
I smiled before taking off towards the school entrance. We walked through and then walked across the courtyard towards our lockers. We stopped at mine and I pulled it open, grabbing a black pencil case, and a white and red binder. Then I shut the door and we walked towards Sakura's which was down a few. She opened her locker and pulled out a pink and white pencil case and a green binder. Just then I heard voices coming towards us and I groaned.
"Well if it isn't the whore and her slutty friend." One of them said, and I whipped around and with one step Rei was on the ground.
"First off the only whore is you, and those are your slutty friends, and if I ever hear you say that to us again, you'll be sorry." I hissed, before walking off, with Sakura running after me.
Rei's POV
"Jade." Sakura called, as she ran after her.
"Was that a threat?" I asked as Naoko and Tomoyo helped me up. "Thanks girls."
"I think it was." Naoko said as she stared after them.
"No one threatens us and gets away with it." Tomoyo stated, her hands loosely clenched at her side.
"That's for sure." I hissed, brushing off my skirt. "They will both pay."
Just then the bell rang and we all ran towards homeroom. I pushed open the door and we walked in only to see Jade and Sakura over near the windows talking to some guy. He had dark red hair, and greenish-gold eyes. He was dressed in the customary school uniform, only his shirt had a few unbuttoned buttons at the collar.
"Jeez, so your parents moved you here, because they didn't like what was going on in Tomoeda?" Sakura asked him, her hand resting on the window ledge.
"Yea, I'm so glad I met you here though, after you and your family left Japan so suddenly without telling anyone." He answered, smiling.
"Atashi, I'll introduce you to my friends at lunch." Sakura said, and Jade smiled, her hand pushing back a few stray hairs.
"Rei, Naoko, Tomoyo, over here." Rika called from her perch at her desk.
"Hey Rika." We all greeted walking over to them, and I looked over my shoulder and saw Atashi following us with his eyes.
Sakura's POV
"Atashi?" I asked looking at him as he watched Tomoyo, and her friends walk towards another. "Don't bother with them, they have no respect for others, only to use people to gain popularity." I explained, and he looked back at us, smiling.
"Don't worry." He replied, before we all took seats near each other.
"We have a new student today so will everyone please welcome Kajima Atashi." The teacher said waving his hand towards Atashi who stood up and bowed, before taking his seat again.
I glanced over at Jade and saw here writing, err rather drawing in her notebook. I leaned over her way a bit and saw that she drawing the part of the morning when I had been sitting and talking with Drave. She looked over at me and smiled, before flipping back a page and showing me a picture with Tomoyo and the teacher kissing. I smiled and Jade flipped back to the one she was drawing and made a small design on the bottom of the page, before ripping it out of the notebook and handing it to me.
"Here." She whispered, closing her notebook.
Just then the bell rang and everyone got up and ran towards the door. Jade stayed behind with us, and left when the room thinned out. Atashi and I followed and she waved to us, before heading to the right, away from the direction we had to go.
"She seems nice." Atashi commented as we watched her stop to talk to the art teacher before heading into the classroom.
"She is nice, and friendly. She was my first friend here until I met her friends, you'll like them all. Come on or we'll be late for study hall." I replied, walking down the hall towards the library.
-- At Lunch --
We walked into the cafeteria and I saw Jade waiting by the back wall that lead to the outside seating of the cafeteria. I waved to her and then went into line with Atashi. I grabbed a salad and a soda and then paid, waiting for Atashi, so he wouldn't get ambushed by Tomoyo and her gang. Of course my plan never worked.
"You name is Atashi right?" Tomoyo asked as she stopped beside him at the end of the counter, with her girls behind them.
"Yes, and if you excuse me, I have people waiting for me." Atashi declared walking towards me.
"Why don't you sit with us today, and we can tell you all about the school." Rika offered, placing some reddish-brown hair behind her ear.
"As I said, I have people waiting for me. They can tell me all about the school, so leave me alone." Atashi hissed stopped right near me, his eyes blazing.
I smirked at them and walked beside Atashi, leading him towards the door. We got outside and I looked around, but didn't see Jade anywhere. I turned towards Atashi and he was looking too. Just then I heard someone calling my name and I turned and saw Jade running towards us.
"Gomen, everyone decided to eat over by the fountain. They dragged me along before I could go get you." Jade said breathing heavily. (gomen, sorry)
She led us back towards the fountain and then she sat down beside Koji, whose clothes had dried, and was now sitting on the ground. I sat down beside Drave, and pulled the picture out of my pocket and showed it to him. He smiled before waving hi to Atashi, who was just standing there.
"Please take a seat anywhere." Jade told him, waving him towards the ground. "Lets see, the blue haired guy is Eriol, the one beside Sakura is Drave, the guy beside me is Koji, the two at the fountain are Michael and Chao. The girl with Chao is Mei Lin, and the girl walking towards us is Chiharu. Terri is sick today so you'll meet her tomorrow. Naoto is at a drama club meeting, but you'll meet her soon." Jade introduced, before picking up a French fry from Koji's tray.
"Nice to meet you all, I'm Atashi, a friend of Sakura's." He replied, bowing to them all.
"Atashi." Everyone greeted.
-- End of the day --
I walked out of the building and saw Jade talking to a young girl, over by an oak tree. The girl jumped up and ran off across the street to the elementary school. Jade turned and smiled at me before heading for the wall. Atashi was already over there talking with Koji and Drave. A hand touched my shoulder and I jumped before turning around to see Chiharu and Mei Lin both standing there with Naoto, whose reddish-blond hair was up in a twist.
"Hey guys." I greeted as we began our trek across the lawn to the wall. "How was drama club Naoto?"
(Just to tell you a few days has past since the last chapter, so Sakura is pretty well aquatinted with everyone)
"Sucked, Tomoyo and her gang decided to crash it. The male lead was totally obsessed over her and he stumbled over all his lines." Naoto explained, her eyes flashing.
We stopped below the wall and jade jumped down, before grabbing Mei Lin, Chiharu, and Naoto, and pulling them along to the parking lot. I looked after them amused, until Jade turned and yelled at me.
"Are you coming or what?" She asked, tapping her foot.
I jumped and took off, beating them to Jade's convertible. I hopped in the passenger seat and the other girls got into the back. Jade got in and we all buckled up, as Jade took off down the road towards the mall.
Hope you all enjoyed this chapter. In my opinion this chapter is still to short, but I'm having trouble thinking us idea's for it. So please help me, that is if you want to. I'll tell you the couples in the next chapter. Please review, remember NO FLAMES, and I do except constructive criticism, as long as its not to harsh. Oh I messed up where i say naoto, i mean naoko for Tomoyo's gang.
Wolf Jade.
Reviewer Responses:
Crystalz Tearz: No Sakura isn't a card captor in this. She just has magic, only the element of water. The Sakura Book is the Clow Book, only the Clow Cards transformed in Sakura Cards. The Sakura Cards take magic from Sakura Star. Hope that isn't confusing. Thanks for the review.

MiniSparky: Yea I'm not that great with prophecies. Yea I know I made that way to easy to figure out he'll love. I haven't figured out what something strange is yet, so it might take awhile for it to be explained. Thanks, I'm glad you liked the fight scene it took me forever to write.
