#beep beep, beep beep# went Sakura's alarm clock.
"HOE!" shouted Sakura, jumping out of bed and landing on something lumpy.
"Ahhhh!" Tomoyo screamed. "Something's on me! It might be a space monster!" so shocked by Tomoyo's voice Sakura fell off her and landed on the floor. Slowly, she took in her surroundings, and then it finally clicked that she had invited some people round for a sleepover. Tomoyo sat up. "Oh, it's not an evil space monster, it's just Sakura" Takashi stirred in his sleep.
"Did you know…" he muttered. "That space monsters first lived five hundred years ago, and that they only eat baked beans, but in those days baked beans were a rare deliciously, and most of them died, that's why you don't see them very often, also…" it was Chiharu's turn to stir in her sleep now. "lies, all lies" she muttered dreamily. A look of surprise spread across Sakura's face.
"That was a lie?" she asked. Tomoyo giggled, her long purple hair bouncing up and down as she did so.
"Oh, Sakura-chan, you're so funny" she chuckled. All Sakura could do was look at her in bewilderment. I just don't get Tomoyo! Why is she so obsessed with me! Sakura thought, as she looked around at her friends in there sleeping bags, but suddenly, she realised that Naoko was not there. She pointed this out to Tomoyo.
"hey, I wonder where Naoko is?" Tomoyo looked at her empty sleeping bag with concern.
"I was just thinking that exact same thing" Tomoyo remarked, her eyes narrowing with puzzlement. "Of course there is a chance that she might have got up already, and maybe she has gone down stairs" she suggested. Sakura turned to her with a look of pure horror.
"You've got to be joking! Its 7:10 am, nobody gets up that early! (A/N it was a school day)" she exclaimed. Tomoyo just smiled.
"Well, there's only one way to find out, let's go down stairs and check!" she stated. And so, taking one last glimpse at their friends who were starting to stir because of all the commotion (A/N maybe they're very heavy sleepers) and left the room. When they got down stairs, they saw Naoko on the sofa, drawing something on a piece of paper leaned against the table.
"hi, what are you drawing" asked Tomoyo.
"And how come you're up so earl…oh my goodness, what are you drawing" Sakura asked, fear rapidly building up inside her. It was an exact replica of Kero, the same long tale with a pom-pom like thing in the end, the same big yellow head, and the same teddy bear body. When Tomoyo saw it her eyes widened and she gave an anxious to Sakura. Naoko looked up.
"Oh, I'm just drawing something I saw in my dreams" she said matter-of-factly. "What, is there something wrong with it?" she asked. Sakura put on a fake smile.
"Oh, no there's nothing wrong with it, it's just I had that dream too" she lied. Yes, a very likely dream Sakura thought with biting sarcasm when I next see Kero, I'm going to throttle him, honestly, why does he not just get the picture that it is not a wise idea to go around practically telling people of his existence, especially if you're a magical guardian beast no one is supposed to know about! Okay, time to wipe of all suspicion by changing the subject. "But why are you up so early?" she asked, out of the blue. She was returned with a questioning look from Naoko.
"What do you mean? I didn't get up till 6:40am, that's over sleeping for me, usually I get up between 6 and half 6 (A/N same with me!)" Sakura just looked into nowhere as if the words "Half" and "Six" were new words to her. There were footsteps down the stairs and soon everybody was in the living room, with Touya in the middle of them, wondering what the hell was going on.
"Hey! Kanju!" he exclaimed "who the hell are these people!"
"I am not a kanju!" shouted Sakura.
"She is not a kanju!" repeated Chiharu.
"She is not a kanju!" repeated Rika.
"She is not a kanju!" repeated Naoko.
"She is not a kanju!" repeated Takashi
"She is not a kanju!" repeated Tomoyo. Working out that he was out numbered, Touya slowly made his way back up the stairs, muttering.
"Ok, multiplying kanju, I'll go back to bed"
Naoko stood up, and stated.
"I've finished my homework, and I'm all ready, so I think I'll go to school" everybody's head turned to look at Naoko's, who just smiled.
"I like to get there early, very early" she told the others, as she walked over to the front door, picking up her backpack on her way.
"See you at school, Naoko!" Tomoyo exclaimed.
"Okay, bye!" she called back. Sakura waved good bye to Naoko and then started over to the kitchen, asking.
"Who wants what for breakfast?" At this Tomoyo's eyes widened.
"Oh! I'm starving!" she stated "What I could real do with right now is a full English breakfast (A/N I don't know any big Japanese breakfast, if you do, just imagine that was what Tomoyo suggested), forgive me if I'm asking too much" Sakura smiled and rubbed her stomach.
"Yum! That's just what I need right now!" she agreed. Chiharu nodded.
"I'm in favour of that!" she stated.
"Count me in!" exclaimed Rika.
Sakura looked at Takashi
"I'm happy with that" he confirmed. Sakura went over to the fridge and pulled out two packets of sausages, each with 9 in them, making a total of 18, three for everyone if they wanted it.

Syaoran opened the door of his apartment in Japan and suddenly de jav vo hit him like a bullet, he remembered all the good and bad times he had spent here, but yet it seemed different this time, it was not a difference in the actual appearance, but one in the atmosphere, there was a dead, lonely tone to it, not like when there were people living there. He coughed as dust got in to his lungs. He turned around and beckoned Meiling in.
"You go into your old room and start unpacking" he commanded her. Meiling gave Syaoran a questioning look.
"So, when are you going to ring Kimonto and tell her you're back?" she asked. Syaoran narrowed his eyes.
"I'm not; she can see me at school with all the others tomorrow" Syaoran stated coldly. Suddenly Meiling's head whipped towards Syaoran, her long black hair flying across her face.
"What do you mean" She asked sternly. Syaoran wiped his eye, as if to wipe away tears.
"Meiling, you know what I mean" he grunted, trying to walk into the apartment, but Meiling stepped in front of him.
"Syaoran! What's been happening!" she screamed. Now, usually Syaoran would never surrender to anybody, but there were two people who he thought it was wise not to mess with; Meiling, and his mother.
"MEILING! She injured one of me family! Don't you think I might be a little angry with her?" he shouted back. Meiling narrowed her eyes.
"What!" she exclaimed.
"MY SISTER! Don't you remember! The doctor said there was a chance of her not ever being able to walk again!" he screeched, finding it hard to hold back the tears.
"And how is that Kimonto's fault!" she replied. Syaoran let out a deep breath.
"Don't you realise! It was Sakura that did it! She made "THE SHOT" card do it!" he explained.
"How do you know that, did she tell you herself?" growled Meiling.
"No…she said that she didn't…" he muttered, all anger temporarily replaced with a wave of thought. Meiling sighed in triumph.
"Exactly, so she didn't do it, come on, you know Sakura; she wouldn't lie about this!" she explained impatiently.
"But how else could the card have done it!" he shouted, anger coming back to him instantly. Meiling sighed.
"#sweat drops# oh let's forget about it"

Sakura put her knife and fork together on her plate.
"Okay! Is everybody finished?" she asked. Her friends nodded. "Good, I think we should be getting to school now"
"Yeah, everybody who has rollerblades or a bike can come with me and Sakura-chan!" Tomoyo announced.
"Well, I believe everybody has them, am I right?" Sakura asked.
"I know me and Takashi have come by bike" said Chiharu.
"And I'm going by rollerblades!" exclaimed Rika. Sakura smiled, stood up , walked round the table collecting up the plates, and took them to the sink, where she made a pool of hot water and put the plates in.
"It's Touya's turn to wash up after breakfast, so he can do it".
"We'll go and get ready" chorused Rika, Takashi, and Chiharu.
"Okay!" replied Sakura. As soon as the were out of earshot Sakura turned to her best friend an anxious look on her face. "I just hope they don't run into Kero"
"So do I" Tomoyo agreed, putting on her rollerblades. "are you ready up there!" she called.
"Hi! (yes!)" Rika's voice replied, as they came down the stairs.
"Good, let's go!" Sakura exclaimed, opening the front door and welcoming the cool morning air that brushed against her face as she did so. She set out on her rollerblades, past all the cars and pedestrians checking behind her every now and then to make sure her friends were following. Then she got onto the path leading down to her school that was full of Sakura trees. She caught a petal in her hand and squealed.

at school
Sakura sat down in her desk just as the sensei came in, seeing Naoko quickly put some thing away in her desk.
"Can I have your attention please" shouted the teacher, over the racket of the classroom. Everybody was silent. "Today we have a new pupil" he announced. "Her name is Hikari, Hikari would you like to come in please"
first there was nothing, then a girl bounced into the room ecstatically.
"HI!" she shouted, the sensei covering his ears as she did so.
"So, tell us a bit about your self."
"Well, my names Hikari, I like sweets and I constantly hyper! WEE!" she exclaimed jumping up and down.
"Err…ok, oh look there's a spare desk behind Sakura, see, she's the one with auburn hair, you can sit there" said the sensei. Oh no! Thought Sakura those words always mean trouble!
