It started on a sunny Monday…
RRRRIIIINNNNGGGG!!!!
“SAKURA!” Kero shouted.
“Umm… let me sleep some more…”
“GRR! If you don’t wake up now, I’ll hit the alarm clock on your head!”
Kero picks the clock up, and hit her in the head.
“OUCH!!!” Sakura screamed.
“KERO-CHAN!” She looks at Kero.
“Uh… eh… sorry!”
“You’ve got to do better than that!” Sakura jumped on him.
And a fight ensured.
Downstairs, Touya and Fujitake heard the rumbling upstairs.
“Oh boy, she’s at it again…”
“Hmm… oh well…”
After a few minutes, an angry Sakura went down the stairs in an angry way. Touya starts his usual morning exercise.
“Now what happen this time, monster?”
Adding insult to injury, Sakura simply bonked him in the head.
“You really know when to cheer me up…”
“Of course… It’s my morning practice…”
“Well, what’s the reason that you’re quite grumpy today Sakura-san?” Fujitake asked.
“Well… It’s nothing!” Sakura smiled.
“Oh… I forgot…”
“Ohayo Oto-san…”
“Ohayo gozaimasu…”
“Hey! How about me?”
“You too… Oni-chan…”
-= Minutes Later =-
“Ne… are you meeting up with Yukito-san today?” Sakura asked.
“Yeah so…” Touya replied.
“Nothing!”
“Dad! We’re leaving!”
“Okay! Take care!”
It’s one of those mornings. The sunshine’s brightly, people start to go to their daily life. Sakura and Touya left together to meet with Yukito.
“Yukito! We’re here!” Touya said.
“Touya!” Yukito replied.
“Yukito-san, good morning…” Sakura said.
“Good morning to you too, Sakura-chan.” Yukito replied.
“Wait a minute… you have school today now? Aren’t you going to be late?”
“I still have time…”
“Well, we’re going now… See you later!”
“See you too!” Sakura waved her hand as Yukito and Touya left.
“The first day… It’s going to be something.”
-= At School =-
Ah, her first day as a senior in High school. Last year, it’s just an ordinary year. This time though Sakura felt something nice is going to happen today.
“I wonder who are my classmates this time.”
As she enters the classroom, she sees people that made her jump for joy.
“Oh, so you’re here in this class Sakura-chan?”
“Tomoyo-chan! You’re here too?”
“Well, I guess that we’re sticking together this time Sakura-chan?” Tomoyo smiled.
“Yeah!”
“Let’s see… Ah! It’s this room!”
“Oh… they’re here too…” Tomoyo looks at the students.
“Chiharu-chan! Naoko-chan! Rika-chan! You’re here too?”
“Oh Sakura-chan! It’s nice seeing that we’re here together this time!” Chiharu said.
“Hmm… Is it coincidence?” Naoko asked.
“No… It’s just… well… friendship still comes up on top!” Rika said.
“Wow… all of us, here? Yay!” Sakura is happy at the moment.
“Friendship… did you know that…”
“Wait… I know that voice it’s…”
“Yamazaki-kun…” Tomoyo said.
“In the past, people stick together by tying themselves together with a rope and living together with still they are tied. Also, friendship is also a basis of relationship, if one likes the other, whenever opposite or like gender, it becomes love and they are immediately get married and…”
“EVEN AT THIS TIME YOU’RE STILL MAKING UP STORIES!” Chiharu grabs him start dragging him.
“I’ll be back later… I’ll do something to him first…” Chiharu left.
“People still doesn’t change sometimes…” Naoko said.
“Yeah… even to her.” Tomoyo looked at Rika.
“Still thinking about Terada-san?”
Rika simply looked up.
“Well, she is…” Sakura said.
“Well, I think fate like to reward people who accepts it.”
“Eriol!” Tomoyo said.
“I thought I won’t come back here and continue studying in England. I think someone’s dragging me back here…”
“Eriol-kun… I think the reason that’s dragging you back here is her…” Sakura smiled.
“Well, that’s part of the reason.”
“And the other part?”
“I don’t know…”
“But… I’m happy you’re here…” Tomoyo touched Eriol’s hand.
“It’s really a great day today!” Sakura looked outside.
As people continue to enter, a person looked up, looking at the school.
“Well Card Captor, It’s going to be one heck of a day today…” He smiled.
-= Minutes Later =-
“Oh, the classes are going to start now…” Tomoyo said.
“Okay… now where are we seated?” Chiharu asked.
“Let’s see… hmm… oh!” Rika said.
“Eh…?” All of them looked.
They are seated next to each other at the back. In a cluster…
“Wow! We’re all seated next to each other!” Naoko said.
“Were so lucky!” Sakura is happy at what has happened.
“Nice…” Chiharu said.
“Speaking of sticking together, did you know that…” Yamazaki interrupted.
Chiharu looked at him with a strange way…
“Grrr…”
“Uh oh…” Tomoyo said.
“IF YOU CONTINUE TO BUG US WITH YOUR STUPID STORIES, YOU’RE GONNA GET IT!” Chiharu winds up her hand and…
BOOOOOM!!!
Yamazaki flew up in the sky.
“Wow…” Naoko looked at them.
All of them laughed at what happened.
“Eriol… isn’t it funny?” Tomoyo asked.
“Well… It’s something…” Eriol said.
But to him, there’s something unusual happening here.
“No way… is this all just a coincidence? How could all of these happen, and why us?”
“Oh… the teacher’s here…”
“Eriol… what are you thinking?” Tomoyo looked worried.
“Oh… it’s nothing.” Eriol answered.
It’s the start of a new year and they meet their new teacher.
“Class, stand…”
All students stood up.
“Okay… sit down…”
As they sat. They looked at her.
“I wonder what kind of a teacher she is…” Chiharu asked.
“Let’s see…” Rika said.
The teacher looks at the students and introduces herself.
“Good Morning… Sorry if I haven’t introduced myself.”
She writes her name in the blackboard.
“Hello to all of you. I’m Chisato Misanagi. I’ll be your new adviser for this year. It’s also my first year in this university, so I hope you can help me around here too. Well, I hope we have a great time together on your senior years.”
The class clapped their hands on their new teacher.
“Sakura-chan… She’s a new one here.” Tomoyo whispered.
“And she’s cute too…” Sakura simply looks at her.
“I remember Mitsuki-san… she helps us a lot of times back then.”
“Yeah… I hope she is too…”
As the class goes on, Chisato looked at Sakura at a peculiar way.
“Is Sakura Kinomoto here?”
“Sakura-chan… She’s calling you…” Chiharu said.
“Yes…”
“Hai!” Sakura stood up.
“It’s nice meeting with you Sakura. You may sit down now.
“Okay…”
“Sakura-chan… why did she do that?” Naoko asked.
“I don’t know, maybe for something…”
“Chisato… I feel something weird about her.” Eriol thought deeply.
“Eriol?” Tomoyo looked at him.
“Oh! It’s nothing!”
“So… she’s Kinomoto… I better take a good look at her…”
-= During Break =-
“What a day! I wonder what we’ll do this time around?” Chiharu thought.
“I hope we have a good time!” Sakura said.
“I’m glad… though I miss him…” Rika said.
“She misses Terada-san already. But it’s a few years back then.” Naoko whispered.
”Love really surpasses time isn’t it?” Tomoyo said.
But Sakura stopped smiling and doesn’t say a thing.
“Oh Sakura-chan… I’m so sorry…”
“She remembers Syaoran-kun again.” Naoko said.
Sakura looked up, and smiled at her friends.
“Sorry for worrying about me… I just thought of something.”
“Sakura-chan…”
Meanwhile, Eriol thinks deeply.
“Something’s up with her. I don’t know… but…” Eriol is still thinking about Chisato.
“Hello there…” Chisato shows up.
“Oh… Ms. Misanagi…”
“Just call me Chisato. I’m not comfortable that people call me by my surname.”
“And you must be Mr. Hiregizawa?”
“You can call me Eriol…”
“Sorry about that. Besides, why you’re walking around here?”
“Well, I’m also new here, so I’m spending my time around here. I like the scenery here.”
“May I ask you something…”
“What is it?”
“Wait… I can’t let her be suspicious for now, I’ll play dumb for a while.”
“Oh… I forgot what to ask to you. Sorry.”
“That’s okay… well, I better go now…” Chisato said.
“See you later.” Eriol said.
“See you in the class…”
“He must be the young Clow Reed… It’s going to be interesting.”
As they continue on their break. Someone is watching for afar.
“Poor thing… it’s time to move on with my plan.”
--== Heaven ==--
“What is this place?”
Li looks around the place he now entered. Thanks to a mysterious voice and the power of the Sakura Cards. Li was able to escape the River of Fates. Now he is stunned at the beauty of this place.
It seemed to him like paradise.
“This place… it’s so beautiful…”
“Beautiful isn’t it?” A voice is heard.
“Huh?”
“You sure have a short memory…”
“Wait… you’re the one who helped me back there!”
“Yes… Isn’t this place is beautiful?”
“Yeah… to me, I think I’m in heaven already.” Li said.
“To tell you the truth, you are…”
“You mean… this is heaven?”
“Bingo…”
“So it means… that I’m gone from the Earth…”
“Well, let’s put it that way… You’re dead but in reality, you’re very much alive…”
“Nani!”
--== Back at School ==--
“He’s really something!” Students are amazed.
“Huh?” Sakura heard students talking about something.
“Sakura-chan? What’s wrong?” Tomoyo asked.
“They’re talking about someone…”
“Hmm… I’ve heard that he’s a new student.”
“Eriol!” Tomoyo exclaimed.
“Tomoyo…”
“Eriol-kun, who are they talking about?” Sakura asked.
“Well… what I heard is he came from Hong Kong. He has incredible martial art ability. And he’s also smart too. He just came here just last week.”
“What a guy…” Tomoyo said.
“I want to meet this person.” Sakura said.
“Me too…” Eriol said.
The students went on to continue their class. Sakura and friends are having a good time meeting new teachers and new classmates. As it ends another day. They went down the school, happy for their first day.
“Tomoyo-chan! Today is really great!” Sakura is happy.
“Yeah… new teachers, new friends…”
“And speaking of friends…” Yamazaki entered.
“YAMAZAKI!” Chiharu readies her hand.
“I’m gone now…”
They laughed at what happened.
“It’s so refreshing now that it’s our last year here.” Eriol said.
“I’ll miss things here after a long time…” Naoko said.
“Yeah and…” Sakura looked up.
“Syaoran… I’m happy now… just what you want me to…”
--== Flashback ==--
“Oh how the years go by…” Sakura said.
“Yeah… time sure flows so fast.” Li looked up the sky.
“Syaoran-kun…”
“Sakura… what you want to do after all of this?”
“Well… the first thing is… marrying you…”
“Don’t say those things…”
“Don’t lie to me! I know in your eyes that you want to…”
“Hmm… in time…”
“Come on! You’re teasing me!”
“Ha ha ha!”
Li smiled at her.
“That smile… the smile that he only has…”
--== End of Flashback ==--
“Sakura-chan?” Rika looked at her.
“Oh… sorry!” Sakura laughed.
“Oh boy, she’s daydreaming again… ” Chiharu said.
Tomoyo simply smiled.
“We’d better get home now… ” Tomoyo said.
“Yeah…”
As they leave, Sakura accidentally hit a person.
“Ouch!” The person said.
“Oh, I’m sorry, I’m sorry!” Sakura said.
“Well that’s okay… now let me help you…”
“Thank you… Huh?”
“Sakura-chan? What is it?” Tomoyo asked.
They looked at him and they were shocked.
“Oh my… he’s…”
“No way… you’re…”
“I can’t believe it…”
Sakura looked at him.
“You’re…
…
“Syaoran…”
The person suddenly remembered about her.”
“Wait, I’ve seen you somewhere… ”
“My… You’re…”
“Sakura…?”
