Chapter Five
Betray or Betrayed? – Part 1
A little like musical. But do enjoy this chapter
"We are going out for a while. Don't you dare bring the house down okay?" Syaoran told the twin. Syaoran was wearing a green shirt with black coat and pants. Sakura prefer to dress herself up in her pink t-shirt and black pants with her black jacket. (She can't live without that.)
"We wouldn't," the twin replied half-heartedly.
"Do be careful," Sakura told them as she bent down and hugged them. "Do not, I repeat,do not try finding out more about me while we are away. It's not worth the find."
Xiao Feng just stared back at Sakura. Their eyes met and Sakura could see the wonder in her. It was as if Xiao Feng didn't know how she was going to stop her brother to doing so.
"Come on Kinomoto," Syaoran shouted as he stood at the doorway.
"Coming!" Sakura shouted back as she stood up to leave. But a pull alerted her.
"Be careful," Xiao Feng told Sakura while holding her hand.
"I will," Sakura replied and panted on Xiao Feng's head before leaving with Syaoran. Something shone on her finger that pondered Xiao Long's thought.
'That looks familiar...' Xiao Long thought as he searched through his brain to recall it but never seems to come to him.
"Come on, let's go," Xiao Long pulled Xiao Feng along with him as he gave up the recall. Xiao Feng just nodded her head in silence and followed.
Driving down the road, Syaoran and Sakura sat peacefully. The music from the station was the only sound around.
You
don't run with the crowd
You go your own way
You don't play
after dark
You light up my day
Got your own kind of style
That
sets you apart
Baby, that's why you captured my heart
Sakura was lost in her thoughts while Syaoran concentrated on his driving. None of them was willing to start a conversation with one another.
I
know sometimes you feel like you don't fit in
And this world
doesn't know what you have within
When I look at you, I see
something rare
A rose that can grow anywhere (grow anywhere)
And
there's no one I know that can compare
Syaoran looked to side while he listened to the song. The town was rather crowded by those people. Everything that was happening here reminded him about the past. The past when he was with Sakura. He missed the Sakura he used to know. Sakura was looking to her front. She was thinking about the meeting with Yukito. She didn't know how to lie to him. She never noticed the song that was played or the thought Syaoran was having.
Hey,
yeah yeah yeah
You got something so real
You touched me so deep
(touched me so deep)
See material things
Don't matter to me
So
come as you are
You've got nothing to prove
You won me with all
that you do
And I wanna take this chance to say to you
Syaoran noticed the traffic turning red and he stopped the car. He sighed and looked over to Sakura who was still lost in her thought. She was muttering something but Syaoran wasn't able to figure out any.
What
makes you different, (alright, yeah yeah) makes you beautiful
(alright)
What's there inside you, (alright) shines through to
me
In your eyes I see, all the love I'll ever need
You're all I
need, oh girl
What makes you different, makes you beautiful
"How long are you going to continue to ignore me?" Syaoran asked, getting a little irritated. This snapped Sakura out of her thought. She looked over her shoulder to face a troubled Syaoran.
"As long as I like," Sakura replied. Her emerald eyes stared into Syaoran's ember eyes. Syaoran felt like smiling. At least he caught some of her attention.
You
don't know (you don't know) how you touched my life (touched my
life)
Oh in so many ways (so many ways) I just can't describe
You
taught me what love is supposed to be
You saw the little things
that make you beautiful to me (so beautiful)
Oh yeah, yeah
"Why?" Syaoran continued. He wanted to get more of her attention. He loved to see her getting irritated with his questions. That's what made him loved her in the past as well as present and future.
"I have nothing to say to you," Sakura snapped. But Sakura paused. She had forgotten something. Something she wanted to talk to Syaoran about when he got home. But she just forgotten.
What
makes you,
What makes you different, (what makes) makes you
beautiful (to me)
What's there inside you, (there shines) shines
through to me
In your eyes I see, all the love I'll ever
need
You're all I need, oh girl
What makes you different, makes
you beautiful to me
"The article!" Sakura shouted out loud, scaring the hell out of Syaoran.
"What's that for?" Syaoran asked, covering his ears and in time to see the green light. He stepped on and drove off, taking a turn into another road.
Everything
you do is beautiful (so beautiful)
Love you give shines right
through me (shines right through to me)
Everything you do is
beautiful (ooh, ooh ooh ooh oh)
Oh, you're beautiful to me (to me)
"I found an old article on me being caught," Sakura told him as she took the article out of her pocket. Syaoran took a quick glance at the article and back at his driving.
"So they found out about you," Syaoran replied.
"To be more precise, they still have no idea on me. This article never tells them who Cherry Blossom is and any or everything," Sakura replied, "Most importantly, they still have no idea I'm their mother."
"I don't think they can find out much about you. They can't access to the CIA system," Syaoran told her.
"They can if they want," Sakura replied, only to receive a weird look on Syaoran's face, "But there will not be any. I deleted my file long ago."
"One question I have for you, Kinomoto," Syaoran questioned, "Why are you wearing a ring?"
"Can't I?" Sakura asked, flashing the ring in front of him. As soon as Syaoran saw the ring, he stepped on the brake, causing the whole car to some to an immediate stop and Sakura jerking to the front.
"What was that for?" Sakura asked, "Trying to kill me?"
"What are you wearing that ring for?" Syaoran asked in dismay.
"What? I like the ring. I can wear it anytime I want," Sakura replied, getting a little angry. (By now the music station is playing another song.)
"That's our engagement ring," Syaoran replied.
"So? Doesn't mean that I'm not engaged to you I can't wear it," Sakura shouted.
"Damn... Can't image what Vic is going to do to me," Syaoran cursed.
"What? It's not a crime," Sakura replied.
"Not when that ring is..." Before Syaoran could finished his sentence, Sakura had cut in.
"Hope you wouldn't mind, Li," Sakura started, "I want to get to Downtown Devil's nest as soon as possible." Syaoran made a face but followed her order. Silence kept them accompany to the place.
"Give me a call when you are done," Syaoran told her as Sakura got off the car.
"I can go back on my own," Sakura replied, "But there is also a possibility that I wouldn't go back as well."
"Whatever, Kinomoto," Syaoran replied as he drove off. Sakura turned and looked at the pub. It looked like any other pubs.
'Here I go.' Sakura thought as she pushed her entrance in. Rock music and changing colour of the spotlights made Sakura sighed. She wasn't here to enjoy like she did last time. She was here on business. She scanned around to find Yukito but there was no sight of him. Sakura walked over to the bar and sat down.
"What would you like?" the man asked at the bar asked.
"Vinko," Sakura replied, "Add ice please."
"Anything else?" the man asked in a deeper voice. Sakura recognized the voice and smile.
Sakura smiled slightly, "Creep Mole."
"Premission granted, Kaiju," the man (a.k.a Touya) replied as he prepared her drink, "If you are finding Yukito, he is in the room."
"Thanks, Oni-chan," Sakura replied, "And why are you here?"
"Working in secret. And did that guy do anything to you?" Touya asked.
"Who?" Sakura asked.
"That CIA guy," Touya replied.
"Nope," Sakura replied, "Talk to you next time."
Sakura walked down the floor way. She knew which room her brother was referring to. She knocked on the door and entered. Everyone in the room stared at her. Ignoring the looks on this face, Sakura looked around to find the grayish hair guy staring blankly at her.
"Sakura is that you?" the grayish guy asked.
"Good evening, Yukito-san," Sakura greeted. Mumbling was heard through the room while Yukito walked over to hugged her.
"How did you escape? When did you do so?" Yukito asked.
"That's a secret," Sakura replied, smiling, knowing very well not to tell him she was working for the CIA.
"Are you here to find me?" Yukito asked.
"Yep! I need to know something," Sakura told him as she hinted him she wanted to speak to him alone. Noticing the signal, Yukito told the men to leave. After all had left, Sakura started
"So tell me, Yukito, where were you on January the 8th?" Sakura asked.
"I was at Norway, why?" Yukito replied.
"Liar!" Sakura shouted, "I know you were at Fort Course. You were the one who killed Elton Fort."
"How did you..." Yukito stared at Sakura who was standing looking angrily at him. He was shocked. How did she know about it?
"I knew it was you with one look," Sakura replied, "Your style of killing never change. But what I really want to know is why you kill him when he done nothing wrong."
"He is a threat to me," Yukito shouted, out-raged, "He threatened to kill me. I have to finish him."
"And you kill him like you did to your father? How could you? I thought he was your god-brother," Sakura replied.
"You know my rule, Sakura," Yukito replied, "No one will live if they try to oppose me."
"You've change," Sakura replied, "You are no longer the Yukito I know, I love. You are a cruel and heartless beast. There is nothing more I'm going to say to you. I'm leaving." Sakura stormed angrily out of the room. Yukito looked at her go. He didn't know what was wrong with her. Another woman appeared behind Yukito.
"Do you want her dead?" the lady asked.
"Yes, she is dangerous. Deadly assassin," Yukito replied, "Kill her and try not to kill yourself, Nakuru."
"Yes, Yukito-sama," Nakuru replied before vanishing into the shadow.
'I don't think I can trust that girl to kill Sakura. After all she is a better killer than Nakuru.' Yukito thought as he followed them.
Sakura's side
Sakura was still angry with Yukito's change in attitude. Walking down the path, Sakura had a feeling she didn't want to head back to home. Where can she go? She cursed herself for not finding out where Tomoyo and Meiling live. Strolling aimlessly, Sakura looked at her ring. The engagement ring that Syaoran gave her. The ring that she thought once will bring her happiness. It shone brightly as the moonlight shone on it.
'Syaoran-kun changed as well.' Sakura thought and stopped. Why was she thinking about him? Sakura closed her eyes. She didn't know what was going on in her or what was going wrong with everyone around her. Everything changed. Well, maybe her brother was the only one who never changed. She never changed as well.
'Maybe I should change as well.' Sakura thought. 'Maybe that might change everything. I'm just so tired of everything.' Just then, a shadow appeared at the corner of the alley.
"Nice day," the shadow greeted, taking a step and revealing herself under the moonlight.
"Nakuru, it's you," Sakura replied.
"Hi there, Kinomoto-sama," Nakuru greeted, "It's nice to see you again."
"I think you are here to kill me," Sakura said half-heartedly, spotting Nakuru's hand was clinching tight together.
"Should I say sorry that I was here to kill by the person you love?" Nakuru asked.
"Who?" Sakura asked, getting herself mentally prepared to take her on.
"Yukito-sama wants you dead like he wants your father dead," Nakuru replied, "It's always a sad thing isn't it?"
Sakura looked at Nakuru in shocked. Yukito was the one who killed her father! But she thought...
Before she could think even more, Nakuru had took out her gun and fired at Sakura. Sound of 'bangs' sounded through the alley. Sakura clinched her left shoulder hard as the blood flowed down her arm and dripped onto the ground. Her emerald eyes stared hard at Nakuru. Nakuru laughed at Sakura.
"How does it feel? The feel of death?" Nakuru asked. Sakura kept herself silence. She had to finish this lady. Nakuru lifted her gun and pointed to Sakura's head.
"It's about time to let you die," Nakuru replied as she pulled the trigger, "Goodbye."
Syaoran's side
Syaoran drove slowly on the road. He had thought of going back to that place. He didn't want Sakura to be facing all of these alone. He wanted to be there to help her. Just then the music station played the song 'Overprotected' by Britney Spears. Syaoran closed his eyes as he enjoyed the music and stopped his car in front of the traffic light.
Spoken:
I
need time (time)
Love (love)
Joy (joy)
I need space
I
need me
(Action!)
Say hello to the girl that I am!
You're
gonna have to see through my perspective
I need to make mistakes
just to learn who I am
And I don't wanna be so damn
protected
There must be another way
Cause I believe in taking
chances
But who am I to say
What a girl is to do
God, I need
some answers
Sakura never will need my help. She never needs them. She is always on her own.
What
am I to do with my life
(You will find it out don't worry)
How
Am I supposed to know what's right?
(You just got to do it your
way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so
overprotected
I want to protect her but she used to tell me that I always overprotect her. Did I? Why am I thinking about her safety? She is the enemy.
I
tell 'em what I like
What I want
What I don't
But every time
I do I stand corrected
Things that I've been told
I can't
believe what I hear about the world, I realize
I'm Overprotected
But why did I feel like helping her and protect her from the danger? Why did I feel that I had change back to the person I used to be in the past? Is it because of Sakura?
There
must be another way
Cause I believe in taking chances
But who
am I to say
What a girl is to do
God I need some answers
I need answers as well. What am I going to do? I can't have her back now. She hates me. She will never love me back.
What
am I to do with my life
(You will find it out don't worry)
How
Am I supposed to know what's right?
(You just got to do it your
way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so
overprotected
I need... time (love)
I need... space
(This
is it, this is it)
I need Sakura back in life. There is an empty space and I need Sakura to make it full.
'You are empty in heart. You need someone important in life to make your life more whole.'
Eriol's word recalled in my mind. He was right. I am empty-shell.
I
don't need nobody's
Tellin me just what I wanna
What I what
what what I'm gonna
Do about my destiny
I Say No, No
Nobody's
telling me just what what what I wanna do, do
I'm so fed up with
people telling me to be
Someone else but me
(Action!)
What
am I to do with my life
(You will find it out don't worry)
How
Am I supposed to know what's right?
(You just got to do it your
way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so
overprotected
I can't really understand what really was going on in me. I need to take a walk.
I
don't need nobody's
Tellin me just what I wanna
What I what
what what I'm gonna
Do about my destiny
I Say No, No
Nobody's
telling me just what I wanna do, do
I'm so fed up with people
telling me to be
Someone else but me
What am I to do with
my life
(You will find it out don't worry)
How Am I supposed to
know what's right?
(You just got to do it your way)
I can't
help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected.
Syaoran sighed as he drove down the road. Never did he know he would meet...
Chapter five finished. This chapter is a little confusing. Sorry about that. I think I was a little rush on this chapter. It's late in the night. Finally I can go to bed...
The kids are figuring things out fast. And soon...
AnimeLover, there will be some kicking ass.
Mystery Case and a few others, sorry about the grammer and mistakes. I'm trying to improve on it. So please bear with it. I will do some editing after that. And I'm from Asia. Check my info. You will know. And they didn't find a lot on Sakura. They just found one. And they just make assumptions.
Anime-Fanatic-00, this is a SS fic. Don't worry.
I hope you guys forgive the mistake in this chapter. And hope you enjoy the chapter so far. I will update soon.
Signing off with luvs and kisses,
