Chapter 2
The birds outside the 3 story building was singing their cheerful tune.. The sun was a bright September temperature. The light wind brushed across the tall pine trees along the sides of the Kinomoto property, it carries the smell of the pines all the way across the pool, to a sleeping beauty's room, as Kero...
"HOOOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEEEEE"
...as Kero soaked the once sleeping Sakura from her head to her toes.
"KERO!" cried a now fully awaked 15 years old girl. "What?" Kero responded hiding behind the huge TV in front of Sakura. Sakura motioned to her wetness. "You told me to wake you up no matter what.."
"I didn't say poor ice-cold water on me!"
"But I couldn't wake you up, that was a last resort"
"Arggg!"
Sakura took her school uniform, a white dress shirt with the button ups in front and the collars, and a matching black dress pants and went into her private bathroom. She took a quick shower and came out all dressed. She had tied her long hazel hair down into a ponytail. She grabbed and tossed her black light jacket over her shoulders and walked downstairs where she saw her twin brother that doesn't really look like her twin. (Touya and Sakura was born at the time, but the surrounding and past experience changed their appearance) eating cereal, Sakura eyed him muttered her "Ohanyo" went over to her mothers picture said "Ohanyo" in a cheerful mood and went over to eat.
"Where is dad?"
"He went to work at his university, since it was his first day he had to go early" Touya answered Sakura.
"Do you know how to get there?"
"Nope"
"HOE!"
Touya eyed her.
"What?" Sakura said
"Nothing"
"Hmmm... How do we get there?"
Sakura began to think about how in the world would they know how to get to school. The large clock rang eight times...
"Oh no, we're late... Come on Touya we're late!" Sakura pulled her unwilling brother away from his captain Crunch cereal and out the door... (Don't worry they got their keys)
"I remember some instructions from dad" Touya put him finger on him chin. "Ah ha! Over there... he pointed down the street"
Touya grabbed his sister's arm and ran down the long street. His long black ponytail (tied like Sakura's) flew up and down as they ran.
Within 10 minutes of fast running they made it to the school. They ran to the school doors and ran to the main office.
Touya pulled open the office door after asking three people directions when the office was right around the corner. They both stepped inside and walked over to the secretary.
"Hello, we're from Japan"
"Ni hao, I mean hello you must be Tomoyo Daidouji and Eriol Hiiragizawa" She said with a smile. "The ministry sent over..."
"Um no, we're Touya and Kurazumi (Kura-sue-me) Kinomoto" Touya interrupted.
"Oh sorry, um here you boys go" She said and gave them their schedules.
Sakura's Schedules read:

Day 2

Both of them made their ways to the first class, both had the same four classes; Math, P.E, Chinese and Choir. (Touya takes CHOIR? Must be cute when he sings... Lets see what I have in store for him ) they made their way to room 120 for Chinese.
Sakura opened the door and they both stepped in, the room was nearly empty and only a few students was either talking or sitting doing nothing, or like this guy in the corner bragging.
The Kinomoto sat down in the last row of the five rows of desks. Sakura sat next to the window and Touya sat right next to her. They started to talk in Japanese...
"Touya I can't believe we're actually here."
"Psh, I don't care..."
"Hmmm... Or are you worried that you will fail Chinese?" Sakura started to laugh...
he door of the classroom opened with a BANG all the students who were sitting jumped about an inch from their seats. A figure came through the doors.
Sakura nearly fell of her chair as she watched the person who walked in stare at her. The women looked elegant but Sakura could sense that she was strong and powerful. She was the type of person you would not want to mess with.
This woman kept walking towards her not breaking eye contact for even a second, this really scared Sakura.
'Why is she looking at me,' Sakura thought, inside she was shaking. 'What if she knows my secret'
"Kurazumi are you ok?" Touya asked his sister.
"Yeah" Sakura stumbled.
The women was almost to Sakura when she lifted her eyes from her and turned and looked at a boy who seem to be stiff as a statue. He wasn't even moving or blinking.
The women leaned down and whispered something to the chestnut haired boy and then left. It was not until the women left that the boy relaxed a little. His forehead was covered with cold sweat; he quickly wiped his head.
Sakura looked at the boy wondering what has just happened. The boy feeling like he was being watched turned around and gave Sakura a death glare. Sakura gulped and quickly averted her glance to her brother.
Other students started to run into the class room along with the teacher came into the room, she was a bit taller then Sakura but the sensei was old, she looked about 40-50. She had on a very wide smile, she greeted everyone in mandarin, "Hello everybody, I am your teacher for this year please follow some of my class rules. First, no hats" A few students removed their hats. "And no crewing gum..."
There were more but her brother interrupted Sakura. "Kurazumi, what is she talking about."
"I thought you were fluent in Chinese" Sakura started to giggle. The teacher, Mrs Ho didn't notice the giggling from the back of the room but a certain amber-eyed boy did.
'What kind of a guy giggles, god this guy needs professional help.' Yes Syaoran judges people really quickly, its sort of sad.
After Sakura finished giggling, she started to explain what the teacher said. Then they were told to take out a piece of paper and write about themselves and it had to be in Chinese. They had the whole class to finish it, and if can't complete it in time they were assigned as homework.
After some time the warning bell rang and every one started to pack up.
Mrs. Ho spoke up in Chinese again, "Next class you will read the class your inscription of yourself and it will be out of 20 marks so finish it" After a few groans of having to give a presentation, they finished packing and stood in front of the door waiting for the bell to dismiss them to break.
Touya pulled Sakura back as she was walking towards the front of the room. "Hey, what did the teacher say, all I understood was 20" At that Sakura started to laugh out loud a few were looking at her.
"I'll tell you at home"
The final bell rang and every student in the school flooded into the halls, heading to there destination.
On Sakura and Touya's schedule was their locker number. They spent most of break looking for their lockers to empty their stuff in. When they got to the two grey, clean lockers they quickly organized their belongings and took what was need for their next class.
"Hey where are you going to Kaijuu?" Touya asked
"Hmpf, I'll let the Kaijuu comment go this time, I have Chemistry with Leung" Answered Sakura
"Oi! I got Biology"
"Good luck"
The bell rang and they both ran to their separate classes along with a few others who also ran.
The teacher started the class with a welcome, "Ok everybody, welcome to chemistry I see there's one particular student who's extremely talented. Kinomoto kurazumi please stand up to be recognized." (Teachers in this school speaks English except for Mrs. Ho )Sakura did as told, the grade 11s around her smile. They where thinking that they can copy off this smart guy.
Sakura sweat dropped and sat down. The teacher continued to go down the attendance list, "Oh my mistake, we got two talented students here. Li Syaoran please stand up and take and be recognized"
This Li boy who was sitting behind Sakura, stood up (Sakura have to look around to find him). Sakura realized that he was the same boy who gave her that glare back in Chinese.
Li sat down after the teacher gave him a nob telling him he could sit down.
He stared at the 'boy' directly in front of him. Sakura feeling that she was being watched turn around to find that Syaoran was looking at her, She instead of turning away continued this staring contest. Li, unbelievably was the first to break the eye contact and converted his eyes onto the overhead.
Sakura feeling victorious turned and looked at the overhead to fine that the teacher had finished the attendance and already started putting notes up for the students to copy. Sakura smiling started to absorbed the safety procedures of a lab and so on that the teacher was explaining.
'When is the bell going to ring?' Sakura had already learned all this stuff in grade 8, the school would not let her skip another grade so here she is daydreaming. 'This is so boring, as if anyone would really wear contact lends during a chemical lab.'
"Next class I'm going to give out a quiz on the safety procedures, you must past this test in order for us to move onto the chemistry part." Mr. Leung said.
"Oi," Sakura muttered. 'This is just great' (note that she said that last part in her mind)
"Remember class the safety quiz is next class" The teacher yelled to his students as they went outside the door as the bell ran.
"Yay finally its lunch" Sakura nearly shouted, she was practically famished. She went to her brother who was putting his Biology text book, and binder in his locker. His and Sakura's lockers are beside each other.
"Hey Touya, whoa you got a text book already?"
"Yeah, the teacher is trying to kill us with homework man"
"Its not that bad"
"To you maybe, you love homework"
"No I don't, anyways lets go get lunch"
"You got first, I think I left a note book in Bio or Chinese"
"Ok Touya, you know the lane of cherry trees in the field behind the middle of the school?"
"Yeah? What about them?"
"I'll get my lunch and I'll wait for you there"
"Ok"
The school is like a big square with another smaller square in the middle. Inside the small square, right the middle is a water fountain and the boarder of the small square is cherry trees, got the picture in your brain? if not too bad.
Sakura walked to the cafeteria and got her lunch; a bowl of wonton noodles carton of chocolate milk.
Sakura went to the 'garden' as they called it and found a cherry tree. There was a bench beside it but Sakura rather sit on its branches, She loves to smell of cherry trees. Within a few minutes Sakura professionally jumped from branch to branch was sitting comfortably eating her wontons. After finishing her noodles and was about to start on the wontons...

...her phone rang the 'Catch you Catch me' song.
"Moshi moshi"
"Hey S-I mean Kurazumi"
"Touya? where are you I'm like almost done my lunch" Sakura said not angry or anything.
"Well I have to ask the teacher about something for bio, so I can't come to eat lunch"
"Its ok, I guess I'll catch yeah after school or at the lockers"
"K, and don't stuff your self too much Kaijuu."
"ME NO KAIJUU! baka Onii-chan"
"haha k ja."
After that they both hanged up.
Sakura sat there finishing her lunch and successfully throwing her garbage from on the tree.
"Hm.. what a nice day," She said you no one in particular, "The sun is bring, kids having fun lunch is not even close to over, birds are chirping , a kids being harassed right below my nose..."
Sakura paused, a kid being harassed?
Sakura jumped of branch after branch as she neared the ground keeping her eyes on that kid.
She landed gracefully in front of the harassed kid to realize it was Li Syaoran.
