Chapter 1: The girl in the flash of light
She appeared in a flash of light in the middle of the park. It was raining hard with thunder and lightning so her appearance and flash of light went unnoticed by most. Rain beat down upon her, drenching her brown hair with purple highlights. Her blue eyes searched around her as if expecting something. A flash of lightning caused her to jump slightly and look around again. Her long light purple rain coat was soaked.
Suddenly an umbrella went over her head and a soft voice spoke to her.
"Are you lost?" asked the now 20 year old Eriol Hiiragizawa looking down at her.
"Huh?" she looked up at him before smiling and shaking her head. "No. I'm not lost."
"Where's your mother?" he asked bending down towards her.
She looked down a sad expression on her face. "My mom is gone. Sleeping the eternal sleep."
"And your daddy?"
"Missing."
"Hm. Where are you staying?" he asked.
"I've got nowhere to stay." she replied.
"Well I'm not leaving you outside alone. You can come stay with me." he concluded.
"How old do you think I am?" she asked putting her hands on her hips.
"Six?" he asked smiling.
"Nice try. I look really young."
"Ok then, nine?" he tried again.
She sighed. "I'm fourteen." she told him.
"What?" he said shocked. "On second thought... Never mind. I believe you. My name is Eriol Hiiragizawa."
"Mine's Crystal."
"You gonna tell me your last name?"
"No."
"Ok then. That's your choice. Let's get out of the rain." he said as they started walking.
They arrived at his house (A/N: Same one as in the anime) about an hour later. She looked up towards the house a small smile playing on her lips. They walked in and were automatically greeted by Nakuru who was wearing a pink apron.
"Hello Eriol!" she said happily as Crystal hid behind his coat. "Who's this?" she bent down towards Crystal.
"Her name is Crystal. She'll be staying with us for a while."
"Hi." she smiled at Crystal.
Crystal peeked around Eriol's coat and blinked at her.
"My name is Nakuru. You're welcomed to stay." she said extending her hand.
"Th-thank you." she said shaking the hand that was offered to her.
"Here I'll show you to a room." said Nakuru taking her hand and bringing her up the steps. She led her down a hallway to a small room painted purple. "You can stay in this room. Did you have a bag?"
"Right here." she said pulling a duffle bag out of her rain coat pocket.
"O...k. Hn. Well you can settle in."
"Ok."
"I'll call you down for supper."
"Thank you." she replied opening the duffle bag.
Meanwhile...
"Did you see that flash of light?" asked Kero.
"Yeah, but what was it?" asked Sakura.
Sakura was now 20 years old and currently going out with Li. Her hair had grown out long and she had really matured. She was captain of her college cheerleading team and mega popular.
"I dunno. Why don't we go check it out tomorrow?"
"Sure. And we can call Tomoyo and Yue to come with us. Shaoron too!" she said.
"Right. I get the feeling something weird is going to happen." said Kero looking back outside towards the park as the rain continued.
Back at Eriol's...
"Let's invite Sakura and the others. We need to figure out something about Crystal." said Eriol quietly picking up the phone.
"That's your call." said Spinel who was reading.
A/N: Chapter 1 finished. This is after all the episodes. I will explain what Crystal looks like next chapter. Read & review! Suggestions are welcomed.
