THE CHOSEN ONES
Chapter 1
17 year old Syaoran was an orphan who lived with the Watson's. He had lived with them his whole life, since his mother had died after giving birth to him, and his father had mysteriously disappeared.
There was something strange about him though. Ever since he was a small toddler, he was a spectacular martial arts boy. As he grew, Wendy Watson would tell him about the problems on the streets, and he would fix them for her.
"Syaoran, there are people in the alley fighting again." She would say.
He would jump out from his seat where he was doing his work, and fix the problem.
There were two men who were drunk and dazed, that were fighting each other in an alley.
"Excuse me sirs," Syaoran said in a calm voice. "Would you mind quieting it down a bit? My grandma is trying to sleep." He looked at them and held their gaze.
One of the men was wearing a black coat, over what seemed like some trousers and a dirty shirt underneath.
"What you think you're doin' here boy? Scat!" He lisped.
The second man was wearing a blue coat and wasn't as drunk as the other man.
"My boy, if you do not leave now we will have to punish you" He stated.
"I'm not scared of you." Syaoran said matter of factly.
"Why you little...!" The man in the black cat shouted.
Both men leapt over to where Syaoran was standing, only to find that he wasn't there.
"Where'd that little brat go, me Lord Ravia?" The man in the black coat asked.
"Find him you idiot!" Ravia screamed.
Ravia felt a tapping on his shoulder.
"Are you looking for me?" Syaoran asked. He was standing behind the 2 men and looking at them rather smugly.
"How'd you get there so quickly, you brat!" The man in the black coat shouted.
"How do you think? What are you stupid or something? Don't you know?" He asked, with a smile plastered on his face.
"That's it!" Ravia blasted. "Get him!"
The man in the black coat, rushed towards Syaoran.
Syaoran crouched down and as the men ran towards him, he jumped into the air and kicked Ravia in the face. Ravia cringed away from the hit.
"Now get out of here you fools!" Syaoran shouted.
Both men ran from the alley, with a shocked look on their faces.
Syaoran smiled in satisfaction and skipped out of the alley, back to his house. When he got there, he looked up at this house that he called home.
It wasn't a very pretty place, but it was shelter for him. The windows always had rough brown cloths that were used for curtains. There wasn't much of a front garden. His house led right into the alley.
He was happy. He had a loving family to live with and a home to go home to everyday, after he did his daily groceries for Wendy Watson.
"Wendy, I got rid of them for you." He would say to her, as he walked inside the house and took off his coat and scarf.
"That's nice dear. Now, come have some supper."
As the years went on, Syaoran became stronger and more mature. He became a strong young man. He was excellent at archery and was fantastic at using a sword. Sometimes he wondered why he was so good at all of these things, but Wendy would say that he was born with it and he was very lucky.
Princess Sakura tapped hard on her brother's bedroom door.
"Come in." He said.
Sakura stepped into her brother's room. The carpet was red, while the chairs were of a brown colour. His bed was very big and placed on one side of the room.
Sakura walked over to one side of the room to where his bed was. She sat down on it and leaned back on the red cushions.
"He's getting weaker Touya." She said sadly.
"I know, sister." He replied grimly.
She got up and hugged him. He put his arms around her and held her tightly. She could feel his tears fall on her long brown hair.
"Father's going to die, isn't he Touya?" She asked him.
"Yes Sakura. He's slowly slipping away from us." He said tearfully.
There was a knocking on the door. Sakura pulled herself away from Touya. She wiped her tear stricken face and answered the door.
A servant smiled sadly at her.
"I'm sorry milady but he's gone," she said sorrowfully.
Touya walked up to Sakura and put his arms around her.
"Come Sakura. He needs us now."
Sakura nodded and followed him with a gloomy expression on her face.
They walked down a long corridor, to a large room which was her father's. They slowly walked up to the bed where their father lay. Touya saw him laying there and nodded.
"He is smiling Sakura. He is now in peace." He said slowly.
She nodded in reply and slowly turned to cry on his shoulder.
The news soon spread around Falia and all were waiting patiently for Touya to take up his father's throne.
Prince Touya walked calmly to his sister's room. He knocked on her door.
"Touya, come."
He nodded and walked inside.
"Sakura, I cannot become king. I'm not ready. I don't have a wife or anything. I don't know what to do." He told her.
She didn't reply, but looked at him calmly.
"Brother, we'll figure out something, together." She smiled.
"Alright, Sakura. Well, we'll talk more in the morning. I need to have some sleep. Goodnight." He said.
He pulled her to him and kissed her on the cheek.
That night, there was a rustling in the leaves outside Touya's window. Shadows loomed over his bed and he suddenly felt very chilly.
He suddenly heard a sound that seemed to be coming from outside his bedroom door. He decided to investigate.
He stepped out of his room and saw no one. He looked both ways of the hall and could only see dim candles lit in the distance.
Abruptly, a shadow flickered in the distance of one of the candles in the distance.
"Come out, who ever you are." He said calmly.
There was no reply.
He stepped out of his room and remembered The Sword of Falia. He dashed in the opposite direction to the throne room.
He opened the door to the throne room. There was nobody in there, but he could sense someone watching him. His hair pricked up on the back of his neck, and he shivered. There was someone in here with him.
He suddenly looked over at the throne, to see if The Sword of Falia was on its tilt next to the throne.
It wasn't.
He screamed. It was gone. He looked around.
Quiet suddenly, he felt someone cover his mouth to stop him from screaming, with a knife against his throat.
He struggled to break free from his attacker, with no luck. He felt the attacker's body very close to is, with the knife sharp, against his throat. He heard a whispering in his ear. A chilly voice spoke to him.
"Boy, I've got your Sword of Falia." The attacker said coolly.
"If you want it back, you have to give up the throne." He whispered, grinning evilly.
Derek stared at what he thought was a man.
He was face to face with a vampire.
"How did you-"
He was cut off when the vampire slapped him across the face.
"Shut up and listen you fool! My name is Nagra and I am a vampire. I am here to reclaim the throne for Lord Zemoch."
"But, how can you hold the sword? It should turn you to ash." Touya asked, his voice shaking slightly.
"That's a secret boy. I must go, and don't even try to find this sword again." He said bluntly.
"You'll never get it back." He stated directly to Touya.
And with that he vanished in to thin air. Touya collapsed to the stone cold ground, and looked around. The vampire Nagra was gone, nowhere to be seen.
Touya shouted his sister's name.
"Sakura! Come quickly!" He blasted.
Instead, a knight rushed in.
"Get Sakura, Sir Knight. Get everyone you can. Quickly!" He yelled.
A few minutes later, Sakura dashed into the throne room.
"Touya!" She said surprised.
"Sakura, The Sword of Falia has been stolen by a vampire. We must do something quickly. They have found out how to hold the sword without being turned to ash!" He told her.
She gasped.
Men and women of the kingdom ran in.
"What happened?" One asked.
Touya filled him in on what they had missed.
He looked at his sister suddenly.
"Sakura, I must get the sword back. I will come back to rule my kingdom."
"Then I will come with you." She stated calmly.
"Alright. But you might get hurt, sister." He said surprised.
"I know, but that is something I'm willing to do for you brother. I'm not letting you go by yourself."
He nodded.
"People, don't just stand there! My sister and I will be leaving soon, get out of here and alert Falia to look out for this vampire!" He shouted.
The men and women dashed out, scrambling around, half asleep.
Well...How'd you like it? I know that it might seem a bit sad now! But it can only get better! Keep reading and you'll soon see Sakura meeting Syaoran!
