This story is like the entire CCS/CC series all over again!
Sort of. Syaoran is the arrogant bully as in the beginning, Tomoyo the obsessive
video recorder and costume creator and Sakura the bubbly and cheerful girl we
all know. Some of the differences are they are now 13, in Tomeda High school,
and Sakura is Cards mistress.
Chapter 1:
The Beginning
(by Melissa, added on 29 May 2002 07:22 PM)
"Bye dad!" Sakura called as another school day
began, and as usual she was late. She slipped on her roller blades , elbow, knee
and wrist guards and dashed down the street.
When she finally got to class everyone was seated and class
was about to begin. Sakura plopped into her seat and gave a sigh of relief.
"Oh, I am so glad I'm not very late this time."
Tomoyo giggled, "You’re getting better Sakura!
Remember, school starts at 7:00."
They both laughed at the thought. Suddenly Mr.Terada, their
teacher pounded into the room. He stood at his desk and eyed each of the
students in the room.
"Good morning class. We will begin with physics but
first; today we have a new student who has moved all the way from Hong Kong.
Syaoran Li, please come in."
Sakura's POV
In walked a tall boy with messy dark brown hair, amber eyes
and a frown on his face. He was so muscular--I could have sworn he had a
six-pack! Well...I am probably exaggerating. After all he was only 13. I had to
admit he was pretty handsome. I didn't have a crush on him or anything but...
NORMAL POV
Syaoran stood stiff and still as he stared hard at his new
class. He didn't crack a single smile, or grin. His eyes turned to Sakura. For
one minute, his eyes only saw Sakura. He glared at her so hard that she nearly
jumped out of her seat!
"Well, Mr. Li will you please take your seat behind
Ms.Kinomoto Sakura. She is to your right and three seats down." Boomed
Mr.Terada's voice.
Syaoran slowly walked to his seat. As he walked he paused in
front of Sakura's desk and glared at her.
Sakura shifted uneasily and felt nervous as Syaoran stared at
her.
"U-U-Uh hi Li-Kun." she said kindly but in fear.
Syaoran glared harder at her and didn't smile, “I know who
you are Kinomoto! You better watch your back!" Syaoran continued to glare
at her as he continued to his seat and sat behind her.
She could feel him glaring behind her and felt VERY nervous.
It was lunch break and Tomoyo and Sakura sat under a shady
tree eating their lunch.
"So, Sakura what do you think of that Li-Kun?"
Tomoyo asked.
Sakura sweat dropped at the thought of the Li-Kun who had
threatened her not to long ago.
"Um...well... I don't know. He…said he knows who I am
and he told me to watch my back."
"What?! A Threat?! What do you think he means by
that?!" Tomoyo shrieked.
"I-I don't know." Sakura replied shivering in fear,
“But I am scared."
Tomoyo patted her friend and stood up. "Well I got use
the bathroom. I'll be right back!"
Sakura sat under the tree humbly eating her sandwich when a
huge shadow appeared above her. Sakura slowly looked up to see who it was. There
standing above her was Syaoran Li. He looked angry and tough. Sakura sweat
dropped as he leaned closer to her.
"Hand them over! “he bellowed
"Hand w-what over?" Sakura asked nervously.
"The clow cards, stupid! Hand them over!"
"So that's what you meant. You know I'm the
Cardsmistress."
"Duh! But those cards aren't yours!"
"Yes they are…Kero said so!"
"Wrong! I don't know who 'kero' is, but Those cards
belong to me! I'm Clow's descendant! You aren't a card captor! NOW HAND THEM
OVER!!"
"NEVER! THEY'RE MINE!" Sakura screamed back.
"FINE! I'LL JUST TAKE THEM" Syaoran was beginning
to grab at her arm as he prepared to take the cards. Sakura screamed bloody
murder as Syaoran tried to take her cards. Suddenly, Touya, Sakura's older
brother leaped over a fence and saw what was happening.
"Hey you! Leave my sister alone!"
Syaoran got in a martial arts stance and got ready to fight
Touya.
Just then from over the fence jumped out a tall girl who had
long brown hair and brown eyes.
" YOU LEAVE MY BROTHER ALONE!"
It was Syaoran's older sister Fuutie. Everyone in Japan
called her Mitsuki. She then saw Touya and turned googly eyed and he did too.
"Wow you l-look..b-beautiful." Touya stuttered.
"Ya, and you're a major hunk! What's your name?!"
Mitsuki and Touya then ran off somewhere and left Syaoran and Sakura staring in
confusion.
Then, Syaoran turned back to Sakura and frowned.
"Okay! Forget that! Now just give me the cards
already!"
"NEVER!" Sakura said protecting her pocket at which
her cards were hidden.
At that exact moment, Tomoyo had come back from the washroom,
and Yukito had come around the corner.
"Uh…what's going on here?" Tomoyo asked puzzled.
"Anyone hungry? I've got egg-rolls!" Yukito smiled
cheerfully.
"YU—K I—TO--KUN!!!!!!" Sakura flushed red at
the sight of him.
Syaoran was confused so he just took off only saying one last
thing, “Watch out Kinomoto! You aren't a card captor! I WILL get those cards!
“With that he vanished down the road.
Later that night Sakura sat on her bed in anger. "That
Li-Kun! I Hate him! What makes him think he's so tough! He's never getting the
clow cards! After capturing all 52 of them, what makes him think I'll just give
them away?!!"
Kero sat playing his video game,
"Correction, Sakura cards! Don't worry Sakura; you are
the REAL card captor. Don't let him get to you."
"I hope you're right." and with that Sakura fell
sound asleep.

'He said I wasn't the card captor...then how can I have
possibly been successful in all my captures and converting if I wasn't
destined?' she asked herself as she sat with Tomoyo and Kero under a cherry
blossom tree.
'Don’t worry, Sakura-chan,' Tomoyo assured with a sweet
smile, 'You are the Cards Mistress. And Li Syaoran cannot stand in your way.'
'Thank you, Tomoyo-chan,' Sakura sighed, looking down at
Kero-chan whom was scoffing down tons of sushi rolls.
*
Syaoran was introduced to a group of guys his age by the
friendly and weird Yamazaki Takashi(Takashi is the first name). He sits quietly,
keeping to himself as Yamazaki tells the other boys another of his crazy
stories.
'Love used to band in the school grounds only a century ago?'
he began with a snicker.
'Really?' they all breathed in unison, all very gullible.
Yamazaki was so pleased to have such a wrapped audience that
he continued, 'there were as many teacher's as they were children and each one
was monitored...one day, a boy and a girl decided to put a stop to this but
unfortunately for them, they themselves fell in love...and there was a price to
pay...'
They all gasp in horror.
Chiharu walks over to Yamazaki and pulls him up by one ear.
She scowls at him and smiles over to Syaoran.
'He's always making up stories! Just ignore him,' she said to
Syaoran, 'I'm Chiharu by the way. You must be Li Syaoran.'
He nods simply, not paying much attention.
'My friend, Sakura-chan seems to know you,' she continued.
Syaoran raises his head and stares at her, nodding her to
proceed.
'Do you know her?' Chiharu asked.
'We're...old friends,' Syaoran said with a smirk that didn't
seem friendly.
'Oh, really?' Yamazaki had interest in his tone, 'An old
boyfriend, eh?'
Syaoran is taken aback, and for the first time in his life,
blushes.
'Ooh, maybe you were right for once, Yamazaki-kun,' Naoko
suddenly appeared along with Rika.
'Love interest, ay?' Rika cooed. 'How cute!'
Syaoran glares around at all of them, folding his arms
stubbornly and looking away.
They all begin to laugh freely; the groups were always joking
around, but Syaoran had never been with people so carefree.
'Is that Kinomoto girl like that?' he wondered to himself,
but stopped abruptly, 'Don't think that!' he ordered his inner voice to hush up.
'I need those Clow Cards!'
But he didn't know that they were already captured, and fully
transformed, so he's in for a shock...
*
Sakura feels a jolt in her stomach as she senses Syaoran's
anger rise.
'Hoe!' she squealed, nearly falling on her back.
'Sakura-chan?' both Kero and Tomoyo ask in surprise.
'Li-kun's temper just rose...' she giggled nervously, quickly
stuffing the Sakura book back into her backpack.
'Don't let him get to you,' Kero-chan sighed, 'he's come
about three years too late.'
Tomoyo nods in agreement,
Sakura sighs heavily, still feeling Syaoran's aura burning
angrily.
'I hope...' she gulped mentally.

Chapter 3: Supper at Sakura's(part 1)
(by Melissa, added on 30 May 2002 08:22 PM)
"Why aren't I sensing a clow card??!!" Syaoran's
anger rose higher and higher not quite understanding what was going on.
Suddenly a voice rang from down stairs,"Syaoran! Come
down here now! We have something exciting to tell you!" It was Yelin,
Syaoran's mother. Syaoran raced down the stairs not wanting to keep his mother
waiting.
"Yes mother? What is it?"
Yelin,Mitsuki and three of his other sisters stood smiling at
him happily.
"Syaoran, you know those neighbours next door?"
Yelin asked.
Syaoran shook his head. He never even knew who lived next
door to him.
"No,not a clue."
"Oh, well since we're new around,tonight the Kinomotos
have kindly invited us over for dinner. I think it would be a magnificent idea
to get to know them
that way. What do you think"
Syaoran stared in absolute shock. The KINOMOTOS?? SAKURA
LIVES NEXT DOOR?? Imediately 4 thoughts rose into is head:
1)
OMG!! SAKURA LIVES NEXT DOOR TO ME?!!
2) Will she tell mom about me trying to take the cards?
3)
ACKKK! HER BROTHER WILL KILL ME!
4)Mom will sence Sakura's magical aura. VERY BAD! What if she
makes me take them there and then.
"O-Okay. That is fine." Syaoran said.
Li's POV
Oh no! why did I say ok? NOW I HAVE TO GO.
Normal POV
Mitsuki squealed in delight,"YAY!! I GET TO SEE TOUYA!"
Mitsuki danced around the room happily.
She had obviously taken a deep interest for him.
Syaoran was then ordered upstairs to get dressed in nice
dressy clothes to make a good impression.
Syaoran stood by his window,and pulled of his shirt to
change. He slipped on on a dressy white shirt with a tie, sprayed on a bit of
cologne,put on a pair of dressy black pants and ACCTUALY brushed his hair. He
then sat on his desk. What was so special about the Kinomotos anyway? Why did he
decide to go? Why’d he say he was ok? Syaoran glanced out the window and
something caught his eye. His bedroom was exactly opposite from Sakura's and he
could see directly into it. This shocked him a bit. Eventually the ability to
see into her room grabbed his interest(no, he’s not perverted).Would it
give him an advantage to catching the cards? He stared into the room eyeing
every detail.
'Wow',he
thought,'Kinomoto has a really messy room.She is so disorganized!!'
Suddenly a door to her room was opened and into the room came
in Sakura. She was wearing a short,tight shiny red dress with fine straps up the
back and over the shoulder. Syaoran stared gaining more interest in what she was
doing(remember..not perverted!).
Syaoran’s
Thoughts—I saw her walk through the door and immediately thought ‘WOW! Look
at her...she’s hot!’
She
is! That dress and her face and features and...what the hell was I thinking??
This is Kinomoto here…sheesh..you got to get a grip Syaoran…
"SYAORAN!! WE'RE READY TO GO NOW! COME QUICK!"
*****Sakura's home****
Sakura continued to stare into the mirror.
"Do I look good?" sakura asked unsure of how well
her sense of fashion was.
"You look great!" Fujitaka said standing outside
her bedroom.
"You and your mother are the two most beautiful girls I
have ever met. More beautiful than the prettiest flower, and sweeter than the
sweetest honey."
Sakura blushed. No one other than Tomoyo had ever said she
was that pretty. Sakura then wondered,'If I'm that beautiful, why haven't I ever
had a boyfriend or kissed a boy?' Sakura really didn't understand why she even
thought that.
Suddenly the bell rang. Sakura bounded down the stairs to
answer the door.
"I'll get it!!" Sakura shouted as she raced to the
door excitedly, but wasn't quite sure why. She wasn't really fond of the Lis'
visit. After all she hated Syaoran Li.
"Konnichi wa! Welcome to the Kinomoto Residence."
Sakura ushered as she greeted Ms.Li and her daughters.
"Allow me to take your coat." Sakura offered,
kindly taking their coats. She then looked Yelin right in the eye, never
realizing how pretty Syaoran's mother was. Sakura hoped she was nicer than he
was.
"Konnichi wa. You must be Kinomoto Sakura.
Correct?" Yelin asked
"Yes mam." Sakura said politely.
"I have heard so much about you from your father. You
really are a very beautiful girl."Yelin said kindly.
Sakura blushed. Maybe she was very pretty. Two compliments in
one hour. Then four tall girls ran up to her and started to squeal. Sakura
stared at them in confusion.
"OMG! YOU ARE SO CUUUTE!!" squealed one.
"Aw! Look at her pretty eyes! They remind me of
mine!" another giggled.
"You are soo sweet!" said the other.
Sakura blushed.
Sakura's POV
Wow! 5 compliments in one hour! I felt so special. Then out
of the room came Touya and dad with a tray of sushi and dimsum platters.
I then noticed a boy walk through the door. He wore a dressy
white shirt with a tie, a pair of dressy black pants and had neat dark brown
hair. It was Syaoran . I had to admit he looked quite handsom, and smelled
pretty good, but I still hated him. He had a fixed frown on his face and he
glared at me hard.
I felt unrattled and scared by this but I gulped and kindly
offered,”Uh...h-hi…Li.-kun…m-may I…take your…”
But before I can finish, he shoved past me and walked away. I
stared behind him in shock. He was so rude!
"Anyone up for a snack?" Dad asked smiling.
Everyone ran up to have a snack. A tall, slim girl in a long blue dress turned
to Touya and smiled.
"TOUYA!!" she cried happily.
"MITSUKI!" he cried back.
Mitsuki ran straight into his arms and hugged him.
"Guess what mother," began Mitsuki,"This is my
boyfriend Touya!" she said happily and Touya blushed. I stared in
confusion. Touya had a girlfriend? I though he was gay!

Chapter 4: Supper at Sakura's(part 2)
(by Melissa, added on 30 May 2002 08:48 PM)
Sakura's POV
The room was eventually filled with laughter and chatting. I
decided to slip away from the group. I went outside to go stand on the porch.
"The stars look really beautiful tonight." I said out loud.
"Yeah. They do don't they?" said a familiar voice.
I turned around to see...Syaoran.
"W-What are you doing here?" I asked.
"I was invited, baka(stupid)." said Syaoran
mercilessly as he popped a lollypop into his mouth.
"I AM NOT BAKA!!" I shouted angrily.
"Yes you are. You are baka and weird and you're a freak.
You have the most untidy room I ever saw and YOU TALK TO STUFFED ANIMALS!"
Normal POV
Sakura's eyes widened.
"First of all, I'M NOT A FREAK! HIS NAME IS KERO
AND--H-How would you know that--are you spying on me??!!" Sakura stared in
frustration.
Syaoran felt sweat rushing down his head. How does he explain
that he could see directly into her room?
"W-Well um...why don't you just give me the clow
cards?!!"
Sakura got angrier, "THE CARDS ARE MINE! THEY'RE SAKURA CARDS
NOW! YOU ARE 3 YEARS TOO LATE MR.LI! NOW TELL ME HOW YOU KNOW ABOUT MY ROOM! DID
YOU SPY ON ME??!!" Sakura was practically screaming now.
Syaoran felt the tension rise, "W-Well...u-um...I might
have...peeked..."
Before he could say further more he felt a hard stinging blow
on the side of his face. Sakura had slapped him!
"LI SYAORAN! DON'T YOU EVER COME NEAR ME AGAIN! LEAVE
ME, AND MY CARDS ALONE! YOU ARE THE WORST PERSON I HAVE EVER MET,
YOU...YOU...YOU PERVERT!!"
Suddenly
Fujitiaka, Yelin, Touya, and all four of Syaoran's
sisters had come outside.
"What's going on here? I can here you from in the
house!" Fujitaka looked at the two 13-year olds in concern. Sakura shoved
past her father with tears streaming down her face and she then ran up to her
room. The next thing heard was the slamming of her bedroom door. Everyone's eyes
fell upon Syaoran. He knew very well he was in for it. Big Time!
Touya stomped angrily in front of
Syaoran.
"WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY SISTER THIS TIME YOU CHINESE GAKI?!"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 5: Supper at Sakura's(Part 3)
(by Melissa, added on 31 May 2002 06:12 PM)
By now, Touya's face was red in rage. He was face to face
with Syaoran and looked almost ready to beat the living shit out of him.
Fujitaka then calmly seperated Touya and Syaoran.
"Alright Touya. Relax. I don't know what happened but
Li-Syaoran is our guest and we must treat him respect."
Yelin nodded in agreement,"Yes. We have come here to get
to know each other. It's not best to result to violence," then her eyes
shifted onto Syaoran and she began to frown,"And you young man, we'll be
talking about this later."
Syaoran sweartdropped. What did that mean?! he thought,Was
she going to ask about our argument??
Touya gave one last glare at Syaoran and stormed into the
kitchen and under his breath saying gaki.
Everyone was sitting around the Kinomotos’ large dinner
table . Sakura was called down from her room to eat dinner.
Everyone sat eating quitely, not saying a single word.
Fujitaka and Yelin felt concern for their childeren:Yelin for Syaoran, Fujitaka
for Sakura. Sakura had her head bowed and still tears were trickling down her
cheek. Syaoran at the opposite also had his head down. He had a frown on his
face as he made a mountain of potaoes on his plate. Eventually Yelin decided to
break the silence.
"So...um...Kinomoto-kun, what is it you do again...if
you don't mind me asking?"
"Well, I am an archaeology professor at a university."
answered Mr.Kinomoto politely.
"Oh. So um...what happened to your wife? Could she not
make it?"
Fujitaka turned a bit quiet and sadness started to whell up
inside of him, "Well, she passed a way quite a while ago."
Yelin gasped and covered her mouth, "Oh…dear. I'm
quite sorry. I know how you feel. My husband passed away a while ago also."
By now, the interest of Sakura and Syaoran had rose.
"Really?" This is interesting. So what does your
son do in school?" Fujitaka asked wiping his mouth with a napkin.
"Oh my Syaoran? Well he's very smart. He is also
interested in sports. He got 1st in the 100-m dash back home! He had record
speed!"
Fujitaka grinned, "That's nice to know. My little Sakura is
also very interested in sports. She's even on the cheerleading squad and she won
the 100-m dash here in Tomeda!"
Syaoran and Sakura stared at each other not quite sure of
anything. They never realized how much they had in common. Soon after they
immediately looked away.
Mitsuki giggled, "Well I think Syaoran is quite weird. With
that scowl on his face he looks like a little monster!"
Touya smiled wickedly eyeing Sakura, "You want to know
who else looks like a monster?" he asked chuckling quietly.
Sakura shot him a nasty glare and kicked him in the knee from
under the table. He winced as he bared the pain without shouting.
"The sad thing is my Sakura is struggling in math. She
really needs help in this area." Fujitaka said sadly. Sakura rolled her
eyes feeling embarrassed.
"OH THAT'S WONDERFUL!" said Yelin happily.
"I-It is?" stuttered Fujitaka and Sakura in unison.
"Yes! Syaoran happens to be a top student in math! Maybe
he can come over and tutor some time!"
Fujitaka's eyes brightend, "Yes! That's perfect! He can
come over everyday after school and they can study together!"
Sakura and Syaoran stared at their parents in shock. Sakura
nearly fainted at the decision they were making. They wondered if they were
purposely trying to ruin their lives.
The two then glared at each other. In their eyes all they
could see in each other was hate and rivalry. Sakura pushed away from the table
and then stood up.
"May I please be excused?" asked Sakura.
"Yes, you may." replied her father.
Sakura pushed her chair in, cleared the table and raced up
into her room. She then slammed the door. Kero stared at her in bewilderment
wondering what was wrong.
"What's wrong Sakura? You look like you've seen a
ghost!" Kero asked in concern.
"Kero-chan, I'll explain later, I've got to call Tomoyo...
NOW!"
Sakura just had to tell all this to Tomoyo--had to!
Soon after Sakura went upstairs The Lis had left. Syaoran
knew as soon as he got home, his mother would ask about the argument he and
Sakura had...had she sensed the cards?
