Well, here is the first REAL chapter to this story and thank you to all the people that reviewed for me, thank you, and here is the next chapter.
CHAPTER 1: Warehouse Life
"MOTHER" screamed a young girl helplessly as she watched her mother's coffin be buried as her older brother held her close to him tears falling from his eyes as he watched his mother's coffin as his wife held him close to her, Touya married Kaho just a few months before Nadeshiko became ill.
"Shhh Sakura-Chan, you're mother is going somewhere where she will be happy forever" whispered Kaho as her eyes met with Sakura's puffy ones.
"Wasn't she happy with us?" asked Sakura as Touya watched his wife get out of her predicament
"She was greatly happy with us, even happier then where she is going" spoke Kaho slowly as the young girl let the words run through her mind.
"Then why did she go?" asked Sakura once more like a little one as Kaho smiled sadly at her.
"Because fate decided it was time for her to leave us" said Kaho as Sakura stayed quiet not saying anything else as Touya smiled lovingly at his wife as she managed to smile back as she looked up into the sky, they traveled home together as Kaho tucked Sakura into her bed and Touya into their bed, she wandered out into the garden and sat on the chair gracefully like a princess as she looked into the dark sky she whispered
"Please look out for Sakura; I sense that she will face many difficulties in the future" prayed Kaho looking up into the sky waiting for an answer as she heard a gentle voice answer her prayer.
"I will" whispered the voice from afar as Kaho walked back to the house slightly feeling more better, feeling more encouraged but in her heart she knew that Sakura will face a long and painful journey.
"Touya, are you all right?" asked Kaho slightly worried as Touya walked into the chair and started to talk to it.
"Kaijuu, what are you doing up so early in the morning?" asked Touya to the chair as the chair just stood there.
Chair: …
Touya: Sakura, talk to me
Chair…
Touya: Sakura this is not funny
Sakura: Morning Kaho
Kaho: Morning Sakura, sleep well?
Sakura: Not really, but I did
Kaho: That's good
Sakura: Um…Kaho, what is my brother doing?
Kaho: Not sure, go over and say good morning and see what he does
Touya: Ahh, a chair I can sit on
Sakura: Morn… HEY GET OFF OF ME
Touya: Chair, why are you talking?
Sakura: Ka…ho…help me, squeaked Sakura as Kaho rushed over and held Touya up so Sakura could put the real chair under his ass.
"Touya what's wrong?" asked Kaho worried half to death running over to her husband in a daze.
"Oh Sakura, I'm so sorry, you see, I haven't had much sleep lately" spoke Touya sadly aware of all the family problems that his sister will have to endure.
"No matter, nothing's wrong, I'm just worried about you, now please, go back upstairs and get some more sleep, you too Kaho, you both look very tired" said Sakura as she pushed the pair to their room as they smiled to each other, happy that they found each other.
"What do you think will happen to Sakura?" asked Kaho worriedly.
"I truly don't know" said Touya sadly as he and Kaho fell in a deep slumber as their dreams overtook their worries.
"Now that's done I should star…" said Sakura only to be quickly interrupted by banging on the door.
"LET US IN" yelled an angry voice outside as Sakura ran quickly to the door opening it to reveal two rather nasty looking soldiers.
"May I help you?" asked Sakura politely secretly disgusted by the way the two men were dresses so dirty and raggedy.
"We have come to collect Kinomoto Sakura, are you her sister?" asked the first soldier as Sakura began to fret.
'Otou-San would never sell me away… would he?'
"Sakura, what's with the entire racket?" asked the groggily Touya from the stairs as Sakura looked at her brother scared.
"We came to collect Kinomoto Sakura for the auction to pay you're debts" said the second soldier
"But I have no debts" argued Touya helplessly looking at Kaho
"No sir, but you're father does" smirked the first soldier as Sakura looked up at her brother only to see he was hanging his head in shame and disgrace their father had put them in.
"We're also here to sell Kinomoto Touya and Kaho to a palace in England also to pay for the debts" smirked the second soldier still.
"You may do anything to me, but please do not hurt my sister or wife" pleaded Touya to the soldiers only to receive a laugh from the two.
"Sorry, but we got orders and we follow them, and there's nothing you can do to make us obey you" sneered the first soldier as the second grabbed Kaho and Sakura by the wrist as Touya was too shocked to retaliate only to be tied up by the first soldier.
"Move it" yelled an officer as he lead Touya and Kaho onto a boat as Sakura watched holding onto her best friend for comfort only to be soaked in tears.
"We'll make it through Sakura, and we shall rescue them" whispered Tomoyo hoarsely to her crying friend as she made the vow to herself to free them and save Touya and Kaho.
As the two girls were lead away they heard a yell come from the boat.
"HEY, GET BACK HERE" yelled an angry voice as the girls turned around they saw it was Touya running to them holding something in his hands.
"SAKURA" yelled Touya as he flung the little pendent to his little sister as Sakura caught it she heard Touya yell to her one more sentence.
"KEEP IT SAFE" before being held back by the guard thinking that Touya was going to jump the boat.
"What is it Sakura Chan?" asked Tomoyo curiously looking at Sakura as Sakura looked at her hand.
"It's Okaa Chan's, it's was father's first gift to her" explained Sakura as she looked at the Nadeshiko pendent on a piece of gold as she looked at it lovingly as Tomoyo glanced down her neck and remembered the necklace her mother had given her before she died.
"We're a match now" smiled Tomoyo as Sakura looked up the guards have been waiting patiently for the girls to arrive as they lead them into the warehouse as the girls were greeted with screeches of other women.
"You're lucky, you're the last ones to arrive, some have been in her for months" spoke the soldier as he shoved them into the warehouse awaiting their fate.
ANOTHER PART OF JAPAN:
"Syaoran, how's you're quest going?" asked a blue eyed young man to his friend who only frowned hearing the question.
"No such luck, all women know me because of the clan, and those who don't just like my looks and money" frowned Syaoran more as he walked past a warehouse hearing cries of women, as he walked towards the door he saw to young girls being lead into the warehouse as he saw the face of the girl with Auburn hair he immediately ran over to see what was happening.
"What's going on here?" asked Syaoran trying to catch a glimpse at the Auburn hair girl as Eriol was with the Amethyst eyes one, but the girls were looking down so the boys could not see their faces.
"These two are going to spend the night in this warehouse" spoke the soldier as the two boys took in the information.
"And what are their offences?" asked Eriol as Tomoyo looked up to see a pair of Azure eyes staring at her intensely.
"Nothing" spoke the soldier again as the two boys looked shocked.
"Then why are they being held in such bad conditions?" asked Eriol again wanting answers
"Their family owes too much money and by selling them they can erase some of their debts, this one, Points to Sakura has her brother, and sister in law taken away as well as her" spoke the soldier once more as he lead the girls into the warehouse as the girls bowed to the boys and this time Syaoran saw Sakura's sad Emerald eyes for the first time as Sakura was lead into the warehouse she felt broken.
"We must save them" spoke Syaoran determinedly as Eriol nodded in agreement.
"When is the auction?" asked Eriol to the guard once again.
"It's held tomorrow at the town square, since you two seemed to be foreigners I'll explain how it goes, the girls will be led to the square, slowly they will be auctioned away to be either slaves, geisha's or even worse be sent back into the warehouse either they die in there or wait for the next auction hoping to be sold off, the girls who are young are most likely to be geisha's unless foreigners like you want to buy them as slaves or wives" spoke the guard as he bowed to them and resumed guarding the door as the two men thought over.
"I shall buy that girl to be my servant and her friend too" Syaoran spoke with authority making his duty to protect the Emerald eyed princess.
"Is my little descendent feeling a little bit of love at first sight?" Eriol said looking at his friend who was blushing slightly.
"NO" yelled Syaoran as he walked away huffing as Eriol smiled and ran after his friend continuing their bickering, sometimes stooping to discuss their plan on saving the two young girls.
(((((((((((((The next day((((((((((((((((((((
"Mmmm" groaned Sakura as she felt the hard floor under herself as she heard shuffling feet outside.
"WAKE UP YOU BITCHES" yelled an angry guard holding a whip not looking very happy from being woken up so early in the morning.
"Wake up Tomoyo" shook Sakura to her sleeping friend as she continues mumbling in her sleep.
"Mmm, pork chop, lamb, Okaa san, where are the cakes?" mumbled Tomoyo as Sakura trying to wake her friend up shaking her more violently.
"Tomoyo" hissed Sakura as Tomoyo stirred slightly as she sat up feeling the hard floor against her back.
"Sakura? What time is it?" asked Tomoyo groggily trying to wake up and at the sound of a scream she immediately woke up.
"UNLESS YOU ALL WANT TO BE LIKE THIS WHORE, I SUGGEST YOU ALL WAKE UP" yelled the guard again whipping the poor girl who couldn't wake up.
"You up Tomoyo?" asked Sakura to her best friend who was shaken slightly at the amount of noise.
"This is it Sakura Chan, we'll know our fate today, I hope we'll be together" whispered Tomoyo as she received her small quantity of breakfast of a piece of bread and cheese, as did Sakura as they ate their breakfast quickly.
"TODAY IS THE AUCTION, TRY AND CLEAN YOUSELVES UP A BIT" yelled another guard as he pushed the whimpering ladies into two lines, Sakura hand in hand with Tomoyo.
"Tomoyo, here is a gold ring that Onii-Chan gave me, I'll keep one with the Emerald and you keep the one with the Amethyst, that way we'll know each other if we get sold off to different places" smiled Sakura weakly as she slipped the ring into Tomoyo's pocket trying not to let the guards see them.
As the girls trudged slowly and silently through the streets ready to meet their fate.
