We're Moving?!

Chapter Three.

Sakura was gliding down one of the streets of Hong Kong trying to find the school she was looking for: Hong Kong Elementary. It was located next to one of the high school right beside the public school. She sighed, wondering how big it was and what would happen when she would get there. She was so into her thoughts that she didn't see someone walking in front of her, until she crashed into the person. The two toppled on the ground, Sakura on the top because she hit the girl head on, that the girl fell forward and Sakura toppled on top of her.

"I'm so sorry!" Sakura said, as she stood on the wheels of her roller blades. "Here, let me held you."

Sakura held her hand out to the other person. Sakura looked over the person and figured it was a girl, well, it had to be. The person was wearing a skirt. The girl grabbed Sakura's hand and brought herself up from the ground. She looked over at Sakura and smiled.

"I haven't seen you here before. You must be new, what grade are you in?" The girl asked.

Sakura looked at the girl. She reminded her a lot of Filla: outgoing and energetic. As Sakura looked over the girl she realized that she had black-purple hair, which was all, tucked under a white hat. A tendril of hair sticking out from under the hat (not including her bangs) her hair cascaded down past her shoulders and to her elbow. The girl had blue eyes and had a brown bag slung over her shoulders with a camera sticking out of her bag.

"Yeah, I'm new here. I just moved here from Readington. My dad got a job transfer and here I am. My name's Sakura Kinomoto by the way." Sakura said, smiling.


"My name's Tomoyo Daidouji." The girl replied.

Sakura nodded, and looked around, this was the first time she realized that there was four women dressed in black behind this girl named Tomoyo. Tomoyo looked at Sakura, upon seeing the look on her face turned around.

"Miss. Daidouji are you alright? We saw this girl bump into you, and are OK?" The one nearest her asked.

Tomoyo turned and looked at her, while Sakura looked at them in wonder. Tomoyo smiled at them all.

"No, It's OK. Everything here is fine. This is Sakura, and she's new here. I guess she was just in her own mind when we bumped into each other. We're fine, no need to worry." Tomoyo said with a smile.

The four women in black curtly nodded, and walked back to the black limo that was parked on the curb next to where the two girls were. As soon as the four of them were in the car, they drove off. After they were gone Sakura looked over at Tomoyo with shock.

"Tomoyo? Are they… is that… are you…" Sakura trailed off.

Tomoyo laughed. "OK, to answer your questions: They aren't mine, but they work for my mom. The limo is my mom's and mine and you could say that the people you just saw are our chauffeurs. No I'm not famous, if that's what you mean. My mom owns a big toy company here in Hong Kong, and has made a lot of money from it. We have a lot of money and are well known around here." Tomoyo explained, ticking these things off on her fingers.

Sakura just gaped at her. "Wow… I heard about a famous toy store here in Hong Kong. I've always wanted to visit it when my dad came here on digs for the university back home but I could never come. And, take a look at that. Here I am talking to the daughter of the women who owns it!" Sakura exclaimed.

 A bell rang in the distance getting the two girls attention.

"Oh no! We're going to be late for school!" Tomoyo cried out, looking at the white building.

She took off at a run, her skirt billowing out behind her as she ran with Sakura behind her. Tomoyo stopped in front of the gates of the school and flung them open. She ran into the schoolyard, across the grounds, up the stairs and into the school breathing hard with Sakura right behind her.

"What class are you in?" Tomoyo panted, fixing the bag on her shoulders.

"I'm in," Sakura looked down at her paper. "Kaho-sensei."

Tomoyo beamed at Sakura. "I'm in that class too. I can show you where the classroom in. But, first I'll have to show you to the office. With transfer students they like to meet them before you get sent to a class. So, just let me tell Kaho-sensei where I am, then we'll go, OK?"

Sakura nodded, and they started walking down the hall. They walked in silence for a bit, until Tomoyo asked her about her life back in Readington. Sakura told her all about her two friends, Filla and Sayaka. She talked about school and was starting to tell her about her family when they stopped in front of a white sliding door.

"Stay here, alright." Tomoyo said, and slid the door open.

As soon as the door opened, the final bell rang. The 'final' bell signalled the start of classes and the beginning of where detention would begins for the late students. The class fell silent as Tomoyo walked into the classroom, she was usually the first one in the class, but she came just before the bell rang. Wonder what happened to her to make her be so late? Tomoyo ignored the whispers about her being so late. She just waved to her friends in the back of the room and walked up to Kaho-sensei's desk.

"Kaho-sensei, the new transfer student arrived, and I was wondering if I could take her down to the office to let them know she's here, and show her the way." Tomoyo asked.

Kaho-sensei nodded. "Miss. Daidouji, Arigatou for volunteering to show the transfer around. You are excused, but come down here with the young girl when the office is done with her."

Tomoyo nodded, and started to make her way to the door. She waved bye to her friends in the class and disappeared out the sliding door and into the hallway.

"Is that the class?" Sakura asked, looking away from the door to face Tomoyo.

"Yep, that's the class. Now just follow me and I'll show you to the schools' office." Tomoyo replied, ticking the things to do off on her fingers.

Sakura nodded, unsure. "Can I ask, why do I have to go to the office?"

"All they want to do is know that you arrived here on time, and on schedule. They'll ask you a bit about your past life in school, nothing much. All they want to do is know a little bit better and find someone to guide you around the school until you get used to it," Tomoyo said, and suddenly got starry-eyed. "I can show you around the school. I know the way around!"

Sakura nodded, again. They walked in silence for the rest of the way, Sakura looking her way around the school. The walls were painted a boring white and the lockers were painted a light blue. After about two minutes of walking around the school that were all twisted to make it like a maze. They stopped sudeenly in front of a brown door with big windows on either side.

"This is the office." Tomoyo pointed to the door.

Sakura put her hand out and raised it to the door handle. She turned it down and the door swung open. Sakura trembled slightly and stepped inside the office. There was a long brown desk that was set up in front of Sakura. The desk went over to the wall and down the far side, and across the back. Two secretaries sat there that looked like they were no older then twenty and no younger then thirty. The one nearest Sakura looked up when Tomoyo stepped in behind Sakura closing the door behind her.

"Tomoyo-dear! Hello! What do we owe the pleasure today?" The secretary, Beinlin-san said.

"Beinlin-san, this is the new transfer student; Sakura Kinomoto." Tomoyo said. 

Beinlin-san looked over at Sakura and smiled.

"You look like a very nice girl, you'll be a great asset to our school," Sakura blushed at this comment. "Alls-san is in through that door, there." Beinlin-san said, pointing to a door.

Sakura walked across the room and over to where the door was. She looked back to see Tomoyo waving at her and encouraging her to go into the room while she settled herself down in a chair beside a small table. Sakura looked back at the door and turned the handle. The door swung open and Sakura poked her head inside. There was a black chair with the back to her with the top of someone's red hair poking out at the top.

"Hello?" Sakura said, just above a whisper.

The chair turned around, and the person with red hair turned to face Sakura. The woman looked no older then forty with red hair framing her face and it cascaded down to her shoulders. She wore a smile as she looked over at Sakura.

"Hello my dear. Come, sit down, how can I help you?" The woman asked, eyeing Sakura as she sat in the chair.

"I'm the new transfer student; Sakura Kinomoto." She said, the principal nodded.

Alls-san got out a file folder from her filing cabinet and put it on the desk between her and Sakura. It was a blue file folder with the name; 'Kinomoto; Sakura' written on it. Sakura looked at the folder as Alls-san opened it up. The page had all of Sakura's information on it with her picture on it from last years picture day.

"What's this all about?" Sakura wondered aloud, clamping a hand over her mouth when she heard what she said.

Alls-san looked up, waving it off. "It's aright dear. All we have to do is have you take this folder home to your father or mother and have them look over it to see if the information is correct. If it is, then send it to your teacher and they will bring it back to the office," Sakura nodded. "You're in Kaho-sensei's class. All we need now is someone to show you around the school until you're comfortable and know your way around. I suppose you don't know anyone one here yet, so why don't I get someone from your class to be your tour guide, as you may say." Alls-san said.

"Actually," Sakura started off. "Tomoyo something-or-the-other in my class said she would help me out. She walked me down here, and made we feel like the way I felt like at home. I crashed into her with my roller blades on the way to school and we kind of hit it off, for friends." Sakura explained.

Alls-san nodded. She pressed a button on a small intercom that paged out to Beinlin-san in the secretary. "Beinlin-san, you can page to Kaho-sensei's class. Ask her to send Daidouji, Tomoyo here." She took her finger off the button and the door to the office swung open and in walked Tomoyo.

"Miss. Daidouji, thank you for coming so fast. Please, have a seat." Alls-san waved towards a seat beside Sakura.

Tomoyo sat down and gave Sakura a questioning glance, as if to say 'what'd you say to get me in trouble?' Sakura mouthed back that she hasn't said anything. Tomoyo nodded, unsure. She looked up at the principal.

"I was actually all ready here, I thought I'd wait for Sakura and then I would ask you something." Tomoyo explained, hastily.

"Miss. Daidouji, you're not in any trouble. Miss Kinomoto here was telling me that you helped her to get here, and we were wondering if you would show Miss. Kinomoto here until she gets settled?" Alls-san asked.

Tomoyo nodded. She clapped her hands, the stars returning in her eyes.

"Alright then. It's settled. Have fun you two, and get back to your studies." Alls-san said.

The two girls nodded, and got up out of the chairs and left the office. Alls-san turned her chair and started to turn to the window to look out over the lawns.

"Oh Sakura, you're going to have so much fun here in Hong Kong. The best place to sit is in the back of the class. There's a open seat between me and my other friend Meiling Li. You'll get along with my friends fine. They're a great bunch, all of them. We have our moments and our secrets, and all, but you'll fit right in." Tomoyo explained with a smile.

"Should I tell her about the 'secrets'? What Syaoran, Eriol, Meiling and I are really up to? Trying to find that Legendary Card Captor? No… I shouldn't. The others would kill me.'  Tomoyo thought in her head.

The two walked in silence the rest of the way to the class, both rapped up in their own little thoughts. They stopped in front of the sliding door leading into Kaho-sensei's classroom.

"Alright Sakura. This is the room. All you have to do is remember this number," Tomoyo pointed a sign above the doorframe. " We're room number eighteen. All you have to do is stand here, until the teacher calls you in. It's a custom here in Hong Kong."

Sakura nodded, and Tomoyo opened the door slowly and walked inside. All the students, who were deep into their novel studies looked up at her. Eriol, Syaoran and Meiling all gave her questioning glance, while Tomoyo waved them off.

"Kaho-sensei?" Tomoyo said just above a whisper, as her teacher was involved in marking papers. Kaho-sensei looked up. "The transfer student is ready." Tomoyo said.

Kaho-sensei nodded, and Tomoyo turned and walked back to her desk that was located in the back of the room. She sat down next to Syaoran, and looked at him, while Meiling and Eriol leaned over to her.

"What was that about, Tomoyo? Where've you been? You've been in and out for the past half an hour!" Meiling said, raising an eyebrow at Tomoyo.

"The transfer student from Readington Japan came today. I had to show her to the office, and I'm showing her around the school until she gets used to it. Is it alright if she hangs out with us for a bit?" Tomoyo asked, looking from Syaoran to Eriol then over to Meiling.

Syaoran nodded. "She can, but not forever. You know that we have to find that Card Captor." He said, just above a whisper.

Tomoyo nodded. "You guys can go on without me, while I show her around. But, if you find her, come and get me. I may not have Clow Reed's power and Clow Cards but I've been helping you for the past two years so tell me OK."

Syaoran nodded, and fell silent as Kaho-sensei silenced the class, and began talking. "Class, today we have a new student coming her. She's from Japan, so do well to get to know her and help her out if she asks you. Arigatou to Daidouji-san; for agreeing to show Kinomoto-san around. Sakura Kinomoto please come in."

The sliding door opened and Sakura walked into the class. All eyes were on her as she entered the classroom. She walked over to where Kaho-sensei was and stood behind her. Kaho-sensei smiled at her and told her to say a few things to the class. Sakura nodded, and turned to look at everyone.

"Arigatou Kaho-sensei. I am Sakura Kinomoto from Readington, Japan. I lived there for all my live and now I live here with my dad and my older brother. My mother died when I was three from cancer and she was a model for a magazine. That's about it." Sakura said, vaguely describing her life.

"Alright, then Kinomoto-san. Please take a seat between Daidouji-san and Li-san. Would you please raise your hands." Tomoyo and Meiling raised their hands and Sakura walked over to them and took a seat between them.

The morning past by really quickly with a small portion of what was left over with English, and then an assembly for the awards of the first term so far. Tomoyo had received an award for being the cheerful person she always was and always making people feel welcome. Some of Tomoyo's friends that Sakura didn't know as well got some awards. The assembly was over by lunchtime, Sakura had gone home for lunch so Tomoyo never got to introduce Sakura to her other friends, but that came the four others to look for this Legendary Card Captor but with no luck they didn't find anything. After lunch there was Silent Reading, Math and Creative Writing. Soon enough it was home time.

"Sakura, hang on a second!" Tomoyo called across the schoolyard.

She ran over to Sakura waving her hands at Sakura until she caught up with her friend. Sakura looked at Tomoyo who was breathing hard from the run of the schoolyard.

"Come with me. You have to meet my friends, you'll really like them, there nice and all." Tomoyo said, grabbing Sakura's arm.

She dragged Sakura across the schoolyard, around a corner, and over to some bushes. They stopped in front of it, and Sakura raised an eyebrow at the bushes.

"Sakura, I want you to meet my friends." Tomoyo said with a smile.

Sakura raised an eyebrow at Tomoyo. "A bush is your friend? OK…"

Tomoyo stifled a laugh. "No, silly. My friends are on the other side of the bush. There's a picnic table and surrounded by trees. Not many people know it's here, so we use it at our hangout. Come on." Tomoyo said, grabbing Sakura's arm and dragging her through the bushes.

Sitting on the bench were two boys and one girl. One of the boys had light brown hair and was sitting with her back to Sakura. Another boy with dark blue hair was sitting on one of the benches to the table looking at the girl. The girl had purple hair that was up in buns on the sides of her head with hair hanging down from the bun, and she was currently pacing.

"Konnichiwa Meiling, Syaoran and Eriol! I want you to meet Sakura Kinomoto. Sakura," Tomoyo said turning to her. "This is Syaoran Li and his cousin Meiling Li. This is Eriol Hiiragizawa, he was a transfer student from England two years ago." Tomoyo explained.

Sakura smiled and nodded at them all. "Konnichiwa Meiling, Syaoran and Eriol."

They all smiled at her; "Konnichiwa Sakura-chan!"

Tomyo sat down at the picnic table and Sakura followed suit. They all sat there talking about things all the way from school and friends to what life was like back before Eriol and Sakura were transferred here to Hong Kong. Sakura just sat there thinking that maybe life in Hong Kong wouldn't be that bad it seemed she had already had made friends and was having a good time. She looked at her watch and gasped.

"Sorry guys. I have to go home. My dad's expecting me." Sakura said, jumping off the picnic table.

"Bye Sakura-chan!" The four chorused as Sakura disappeared through the bushes.

Eriol and Syaoran stared after Sakura as she disappeared. Meiling and Tomoyo sniggered behind their backs, when they both turned around and saw them laughing.

"What's so funny Tomyo-chan? Meiling-chan?" The asked.

"You must like Sakura-chan, you were staring after her, and Syaoran, you're engaged to Meiling!" Tomoyo said, pointing a finger at him.

Syaoran and Eriol shook their heads. "Tomoyo-chan, your wrong," Eriol started off. "You don't have any magical powers. When Sakura-chan walked away I felt a presence, and I think my descendent here did as well. It was the presence of the moon and the sun. Keroberos and Yue are close by. I think that the transfer student, Sakura Kinomoto, has an aura of magic, one that will be able to control their powers and the aura she holds their symbols; Moon and Sun. We might have just found the Legendary Card Captor who will be able to hold and possess their magic better then me and Li-kun could ever do." Eriol explained to the two girls.

Tomoyo and Meiling nodded.

"I guess we'll have to find out soon enough. Only time we'll tell. I hope that we'll find it, and hopefully it's her. Maybe then we can put this two year goose hunt chase to an end." Tomoyo said, fixing her backpack and the strap holding her carrying bag for her video camera.

To be continued.
