I am back!!! YAY!!! NO MORE SICKIES!! Ugh, it was horrible, I got shoved in a hospital
for nine days, where I had to get two spinal taps, an MRI, an IV that had to stay in my
arm for 5 days ( Left a pretty interesting scar) and everyone treated me like I was two. But
im back and better and ready to type like there's no tomorrow. To prove such wantings,
I've posted a new story!! Its Cardcaptors, and amazing. Or it will be amazing as soon as I
get more chapters up, but if your up for a good read, check it out, cause its gonna be good.
Anywho, ON WITH THE STORY eh???!!
Chapter 10: Tomoyo
"Soooo… You got adopted, then?" Tomoyo asked quizzically, twirling a strand of raven black hair
around her finger. I half smiled and nodded. "Yea, that's Emily and Eric…" I said pointing to each
of them, both giving a smile and nod in return. "Lucky." she mumbled under her breath. I didn't
catch it however, so when I asked again, she shrugged it off as nothing. "SO! I need details woman.
How on earth…did you and Syaoran get caught?? We were holding bets as to how far that kid
would go to protect you." she said smiling, crackling her gum in the process. I raised an eyebrow at
the bets remark, but pushed it off to the side. "Um. Well. When we realized you four got caught, we
went back to the bridge, figuring they may come back for us. We stayed there for about two
weeks, and one day when we were coming back from wandering about randomly, we found two
cops waiting for us. They didn't even really talk, they just got straight to trying to get us. We both
put up a fight but one of the cops pulled out a gun as the other whapped me on the head with a
rock. I heard the gun go off and then I passed out." I said, staring at the table as if I were in a daze.
Tomoyo sighed and shrugged her shoulders. "So then… Syaoran, he's"
"NO! No…well…at least I hope he's not…dead. He might have just shot the gun to scare us. I
don't know. But Anywho, that's my story. What about you!? How did somebody like me…end up
working in some swanky restaurant?" I said, poking her in the ribs. She smiled and squirmed away,
making me grin in the process. "Ok, one, this place is far from 'swanky'…whatever that means. I
like that word though. You should see the back of the place. Not pretty. And two…I only work
here because the orphanage I live at is making me work, im the lucky one, 16. Too old to be
adopted in our eyes. So I have to work to live there until im 18 and can leave the dump. That place
is crazy." She said shaking her head. "The headmistress is some UGLY old bat of a woman with a
blue beehive hairdo and a rear end the size of a small freight train." She said, disgusted. I laughed. I
knew exactly where she was and who that beast of a woman was. She was at my old orphanage,
the hell-hole I escaped from. Poor thing. I cant believe that woman is still alive though! She looked
about eighty when I was there. But I digress. There was something a little bit more personal I had to
ask. "What about Eriol?" I said, hopefully. At this, she frowned. Oh damn, frowns weren't what I
had expected. "They separated us. Damn bastards. We begged to stay together because we were
the only ones we had for each other. And they laughed at us and pulled us apart. I haven't seen him
since." I was shocked. Not only that people had been so mean, but that Tomoyo actually swore. I
had never heard the woman utter a curse in her life…and here she was… a potty mouth. Shame.
Although I had absolutely NO room to talk, I suppose. But I got my sailors tongue from Syaoran…
Eriol never swore…much…either. So…anyways, rambling. I tend to do that a lot. Tomoyo sighed
and played with a fork that was balancing on the edge of the table. "Anyways. Ohh…you have no
idea how good it is to see you." she said happily, leaning her head on my shoulder. I smiled and
hugged her. "you too! Now, lets not lose each other again eh? Hey, maybe we'll find the others?? I
already saw Takashi and Risa…" I said with a grin. "You did? Where? How are they? Not that I
really cared much for those two, but still." she said, lifting her head up.
"I only saw them for a second in the taxi, we passed them. They were walking side by side, with im
assuming, their parents behind them. They were wearing these funny little suit thingies. Uniforms I
guess. It was hilarious. They looked miserable." I laughed. Tomoyo smiled and let out a stifled
laugh.
"That's rich… I love that." she said sighing. Looking at her watch she sighed and rolled her eyes.
"Ugh. I gotta get back to work. Um. You'll…you'll come see me again right?" she asked, twiddling
her fingers, kind of like a nervous twitch.
"Of course! Im not just gonna go gallivanting off somewhere and leave you forever! That…that
would be mean. No, I'll come visit you. I know where you live too!" I added, making her grin
again. She nodded and gave me a quick hug before running off, waving behind her.
Mmkay, ima gonna cut it off here. Shureee. Its short. But, it's a chapter! That means
theres more to come! I promise! So yea, I suppose that is it for now, so until next time!
Ja!
