Chapter 5
---The Fight
---In the Middle of the plain field, where Sakura, Tomoyo and Syaoran was standing. Syaoran watch take her sword and began to train. Than it hit Syaoran, that Sakura fight just like him. He was to be trained to fight just like her but she was a girl, there wasn't any girl like her who would do such thing.
"Ah, Sakura?" Syaoran asked
"What?" Sakura looked at him with her same serious look, "Oh, yes, I training since I was four. Why, can't a girl learn how to fight?"
"Well yeah, but it's not like most girls do. I've been training since I was three; I want to challenge you to a fight. I want to see how good you are." Syaoran got up and stood in front of her.
"Ah, Syaoran. I don't think it's best to fight Sakura right now, For all you know is that, she has been running around in that huge house taking orders from her stepsisters and stepmother." Tomoyo said.
"Oh, right. Ah, I guess some other time than." Sakura just nodded and gave him the glare and she continues on.
Soon, Kero and Yue came running up to Sakura and Tomoyo, the dogs both bark at Syaoran. But soon Kero stop and went over to Sakura and started to pull her dress.
"What is it Kero?" Sakura asked. "Oh, God, I almost forgot, we have to get back before we get in trouble. I'll see you later Tomoyo. Come on Syaoran!" Sakura wave good-bye to Tomoyo and grab Syaoran's arm and started to drag him back to she house.
-----They as reach the house or should I say, they have entered the kitchen and there, Sakura saw was everyone all quiet, no one was working at all. They were all on their knees, all facing down, not wanting to look up some how.
Syaoran too looked around and saw what Sakura had saw this was weird. Soon, he saw two ladies who were standing at the door across from them. That door lead to the halls and the too young lady was about Sakura age. The two ladies were Sakura stepsisters, they looked mad, their arms were cross and they wear very fancy dress. One was blond with nice fair skin, but she was very pale and her beauty wasn't so nice either. Her hip were way too big and she seems a little over weight. The over stepsister has black hair, she has a nice smile which made her seems nice. But by the look in her eyes there was evil and hate.
"Where in the world have you been, and who is this and all these people that I have not know of. Also, don't you every be early at all?" The black haired girl shouted.
"I am sorry, Lady Hilda." Sakura said in a soft, kind voice. Than she whisper to Syaoran and told him to kneed down and don't look up at all time. Syaoran did as he was told.
"And also, mother want you to know that we will be giving you your punishment from now on." The blonde girl said.
"That will be fine by me, Lady Gilda." Sakura said, she was the only one who stays standing and kept her head up facing her stepsisters.
"Just as I thought." Hilda laughed.
"What do you think it should be, Hilda? We used up all the good once, hm, burned all her fine clothes her father has gave her. Took all her fines. Cut her long hair and hm, it that it?"
Syaoran was listening to the whole thing; he cannot believe what he was hearing. Sakura has lived a horrible life than he was. He was known trying to hold back it, trying not to scream at her two step sisters, for he knows that it would get Sakura in trouble and that they will soon know that he was a prince.
"I know," Hilda whisper in Gilda's ear about a plan she had in mine. "Sakura, we had came up a punishment for you and it is this," Hilda walks up to Sakura and she slaps her in her face. There was a big red hand mark on her face. Soon Gilda and Hilda started to beat up Sakura. Sakura just stands there and soon fell to her knee.
Soon Syaoran can't take it anymore, they were hurting Sakura. She was helping Syaoran and she didn't even know him, she was so kind to him, even if she gave him a glare or so. So, Syaoran got up and block Sakura from being hit.
"What do you think you're doing!" screamed Gilda. "Move out of the way or I'll get it."
"Sakura?" Syaoran looked back at Sakura and saw that she was badly hurt and was bleeding, "Why won't you fight back?"
"I promise my father I won't" She just sat there hopelessly and said nothing more.
"THAT'S IT!" Hilda shouted. " YOU TWO ARE TO TAKE ALL OUR CLOTHES AND WASH THEM, CLEAN THE DINNING ROOM AGAIN, CLEAN THE KITCHEN, BOTH OF OUR BED ROOM AND ALSO I WANT TO SEE MY FACE ON THE FLOOR IN THE DINNING ROOM AND THIS ROOM TOO." Soon, she left. Followed by Gilda.
Once they had left everyone in the kitchen rushed over to Sakura, they gave her soup and asked her if she was ok.
----Syaoran's thoughts
"Wow, they must have care for her a lot. I mean, running around all day long and being treated that way. I wonder what did she promise her father, what happen to him anyway. I have to find out."
-------Thoughts Ends
Syaoran walk over to Sakura, he told the other it's best if they leave her now and got back to work. They all agreed. "Sakura, can I ask up, what was the promise that you made for your father?" Syaoran asked "I wasn't a promise, but it seems like it. Well it started like this, back when I was nine or so."
--------Flash Back
"Sakura, that is mine and beside I'm your stepsister, you have to share!" Little Hilda yelled.
"No, it's mine's. I don't have to give you anything!" Little Sakura shouted.
"No, it's mines" Hilda finally got hold of what was Sakura's teddy bear which her mother had gave her before pasting away. Soon Sakura got mad and punch Hilda, which gave her a back eye. Soon Gilda came into the fight. Hilda and Gilda team up on Sakura, but Sakura was way too fast and she end up beating up both of them just with two hits.
"WHAT IN THE WORLD ARE YOU DOING, HOW DARE YOU HURT MY CHILD LIKE THAT!" a tall gray haired women came running to them and kneed down and looked at her two daughters, " YOU, WE'LL HAVE A LITTLE TALK WITH YOU FATHER." She try to grab Sakura but she was to fast and dodge it.
" Mommy, she try to take my teddy bear and than when I told her that it was not her she hit me." Hilda shouted, faking a cry. Sakura just stand there not saying anything, for she knows that her stepmother will always take her daughters side.
Soon an hour later Sakura had a talk with her father. "Sakura, I know how much you treasure that bear but let it go, you know it's no good when you fight with you stepsisters, now tell me that this will not happen again. You got it?" Sakura's father kneels down and patted her in the head as she nodded.
From that day on Sakura has had that serious look on her face, she never seem to smile anymore.
-------Flash Back Ends
" I see. I'm sorry Sakura. I thought that you live in a happy and fancy life, but I guess I was wrong." Syaoran was feeling very bad for Sakura and than he took her hand and got her up.
"What are you doing?" Sakura was in shock. She tries to pull him back but Syaoran was too strong.
" I'm taking you up to your room, I need to talk to you and also, we need to do something about those wounds." Syaoran pick Sakura up and started to carry her up the stairs.
" Hey, I can walk you know!" Sakura shouted. Syaoran let her down to her feet, but she was barely walking cause her legs were all burse over and it was so painful Sakura began to gave up and almost fall. Lucky Syaoran caught her and carry her back up stairs.
Syaoran aided her wounds and asked. " What is that presence I've been sensing?"
" What?" Sakura was shock that he knew. " What are you talking about?" Lying.
" You lying, I know you know, now what is it? I know it's in you room." Sakura looked down and open her mouth but no word came out of it. She looked sad and hurt, " She has the most beautiful eyes, but they are so sad, her beauty is all cover with dust and dirt." Syaoran thought.
" A about the chores, when do we start?" Syaoran said, changing the subject. Now that Sakura doesn't not like to first question about this strange presence.
"We start tomorrow morning, we can rest right now. I'll wake you up four in the morning." Sakura said softy
"What? Four? Why at four?" Syaoran asked again.
"You ask too much questions, well we can finish it early by than, it's not a lot of work if you're use to it."
"Hey, happen to your dog."
"Oh, Kero, and Yue?" Sakura asked Syaoran nodded. "Kero is my dog and Yue is Tomoyo. They both stay at Tomoyo's place cause you know."
"Oh, well, I think you better get some sleep." It was almost dark and the sun was setting. When dark came and everyone was asleep, Syaoran slept on the hard cold floor, it was hard for him to sleep. Soon he heard a voice.
" Syaoran, if you're having trouble sleep on the floor you could have just say something." It was Sakura she got up and said. " Here take my bed, it's best if you sleep on my bed for tonight."
"Oh, no, I can never do that and beside I'm not going to let you sleep on the floor." Syaoran shouted a little.
Sakura was sure that she did not want to have Syaoran sleeping right next to her but she soon gave in. "Fine you sleep on this side and stay on that side. Get near me and I'll hurt you." Syaoran nodded as agreement.
-----------Sakura's Thoughts
"Oh, my God, what have I just done? Ek, I just let a guy sleep right next to me. But you know it feels kinda nice for a change. I feel safe and I don't' feel so overprotected. Could it be that I truly have feelings for him? He seems so serious but nice. But just having him next to me is even worst than have him around me all the time. I wonder, where was he from and why did he came here?"
------------Thoughts Ends
-------------Syaoran's Thoughts
" Yay, get to sleep in this warm bed. But she right next to me. Wow, she looked even more beautiful while she's asleep, so peaceful and clam. What am I talking about? She is so nice and so serious. God, just being with her is intoxicating. Am I in love with her or what? I hope I can be with her forever almost. I feel like home whenever I'm with her. Oh, god, I also must get back to the castle before mother goes looking everywhere, house, forest but I bet they won't realize that I'm here. I guess I'll stay with Sakura for a while, she make my life whole, for some reason. Best be off to sleep."
----------Thoughts Ends
Syaoran feel asleep and Sakura open her eyes and smile at him for she wasn't asleep at all, she knew that Syaoran was staring at her the whole time. Soon she got tired and she whisper goodnight to Syaoran and they both slept quietly facing each other.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------Yeah, I no, funny. And YAY, SAKURA GAVE HER STEP SISTER A BLCK EYE.
ALSO TO ALL, YES THIS IS JUST LIKE CINDERELLA Or if anyone has seen the show or movie call 'Ever After' it's just like that only in my story.my ways. Lol
It's going to get weirder as it goes on ok. So get ready to laugh. I don't know if the next chapter is going to get funny, but oh well.^_^
