CardCaptors
When The Last Teardrop Falls
Setting: After all the Clow Cards are captured.
Part: One
Chapter: One
WARNING: I know they probably caught all the cards at a younger age but in MY story they are all in grade 6. So if you don't like it...TOUGH!
Sakura sighed as she looked out the window of her class. She was glad all this "card capturing" business was over. This school year would be the first full year without the cards. Everyone was glad it was over, but then again, it was the cards that made them all such good friends in the first place. Even Meilin and Sakura got to know eachother better. But as stubborn as Meilin is, she was still on Sakura's case. Then Sakura's thoughts were interrupted by a familiar voice.
"Listen up class," Mr. Terada began as the class started to settle down. "Before the class ends," he continued. "I wanted to remind you that there will be a "Back to school" dance tomorrow," Mr. Terada concluded. The class cheered on excitement.
"Wow Sakura," Madison said in excitement. "Our first dance of the year!" She concluded happily.
"Yeah I know," Sakura replied equally excited. "Sounds like fun,"
"Our dances are always fun Sakura," Madison pointed out.
"True, but I feel like something new is going to happen this year," Sakura scratched her head in thought.
"Yeah, maybe Li is going to show up this year," Madison teased. There was a moment of silence.
"No, it isn't that," Sakura concluded still in thought.
"Okay, you totally missed that," Madison rolled her eyes.
"Alright kids," Mr. Terada began. "Take the excitement outside," he laughed as he dismissed them for recess.
"Do you think you can go?" Madison asked a little worried.
"I hope so," Sakura began also worried. "But I don't think Tori will like it," she concluded with a sigh. Then they heard a very disturbing voice coming towards them.
"Aww c'mon Li," They heard Meilin say. "C'mon, take me to the dance," Meilin begged in an annoying tone.
"I told you," Li complained. "I don't like dances," he continued. "Or any type of social gatherings!" he concluded in annoyance.
"Li, you're not going?" Sakura asked in shock.
"No," Li replied as he tried to get Meilin to let go of his arm.
"But what else is new," Madison shrugged. Li just gave her the eyebrow.
"Please! Please! Please!" Meilin begged.
"Fine!" Li yelled. "Only if you'll let go of my arm!" Li concluded. Meilin let go of his arm immediately. As soon as she let go Li began to shake his arm, trying to let the blood circulate again.
Driing!!
"Finally!" Li complained putting his arms up in the air. "I felt like it has been forever!" he concluded in annoyance as he ran into the building. Madison and Sakura began to laugh as Meilin ran after him.
"Poor Li," Sakura said between laughs. Next class was Math, with Ms.Mckenzie. Sakura leaned back on her chair so she could talk to Li without having to turn around.
"Hey, Li," Sakura whispered.
"Yeah?" Li replied as he leaned forward.
"Tell me the truth, are you really going to the dance?" Sakura asked in curiosity.
"Um, I don't really know," Li replied thinking about what he told Meilin.
"Really? But I thought you told Meilin you were going?" Sakura asked in confusion.
"Then why did you ask in the first place?" Li teased. Then out of nowhere a ball of paper hit Sakura in the head.
"Oww!" Sakura yelped as she tried to stay quiet. Sakura looked around to see who it was. But Li knew who did it from the start. There they saw Meilin with that big angry face she always does when she talking to Li. Sakura gulped then went back to work. Li leaned forward even more and whispered again.
"Don't worry, I'll probably go," Li concluded.
Sakura leaned back again. "Who said I was worried?" Sakura teased.
"Then why did you ask?" Li backfired with a grin then leaned back in his seat. Sakura leaned forward again; she couldn't help but sigh. Madison who heard the whole thing just smiled and went back to work. The rest of the period was quiet because Sakura didn't want to do anything that would make Meilin upset enough to throw another paper ball at her.
Driing!!
"Have a nice day class, and don't forget to do pages 91 and 92!" Ms.Mckenzie concluded. The class left for lunch. Sakura and the girls went outside to their usual spot.
"I heard you talking to Li in class," Madison teased as they made their way to lunch.
"I always talk to Li in class," Sakura pointed out.
"I think he likes you," Madison whispered.
"Li?" Sakura stopped walking. "Li is like a robot," she continued. "For him there is no like, just neutral," Sakura replied trying to make a point. Then began walking again.
"And for you there is no like," Madison began as she caught up to Sakura. "Just denial," she concluded with a grin.
"Haha, very funny!" Sakura replied sticking out her tongue. "Okay shh...here comes Li," Sakura whispered pointing in Li's direction.
"And Meilin..." Madison sighed and rolled her eyes.
"Okay, I want you to pick me up at 6:30pm" They heard Meilin say as she gave intructions to Li. They all sighed. Li just groaned, as he made his way to Madison and Sakura. Li made his way to them for refuge.
"Help...me..." Li complained in annoyance as he rolled his eyes. The two girls just laughed.
"I don't see what's so funny," Li mumbled in embarrassment as he circled them.
"Ha! You're not scared of cards," Sakura began as she watched Li run laps around them. "But you'll always be scared of Meilin," Sakura teased.
"Stay out of this hun!" Meilin yelled at Sakura. "Or I'll give you something to be scared of!" Meilin warned. Sakura was silent as a chill went up her spine. It's been four years since she met Meilin, and she still can't stand up to her attitude.
"Don't you give her any attitude!" Madison yelled at Meilin.
"Oh! And what are you gonna do about it huh?!" Meilin yelled back as she walked towards Madison.
"Do you really wanna make something out of this!?" Madison yelled even louder. As the two girls were arguing, Li slowly slipped out of site. Sakura saw him and decided to follow. Sakura was never the type of girl who liked to argue. It just wasn't really her scene.
"Hey Li! Wait up!" Sakura yelled after him.
"Huh?" Li asked in shock. He didn't notice anyone following him. "What are you doing here?" he continued in confusion.
"I gotta ask you something," Sakura began.
"Alright shoot," Li replied looking at her straight in the eye.
"What's going on between you and Meilin?" Sakura asked casually as she sat down under a tree.
"Nothing," Li was proud to say as he sat beside her. "Isn't it obvious?" Li questioned in shock.
"I guess..." Sakura thought outloud.
"Huh? It isn't!?" Li asked in shock.
"But why not?" Sakura began. "I mean, she really likes you," Sakura pointed out.
"She's just...not what I'm looking for," Li concluded looking up at the sky.
"Oh," Sakura tried to understand. "Is she too pushy?" Sakura laughed a bit.
"Pushy, could be one way of looking at it," Li began to laugh too. When Li realized that he was laughing he stopped.
"It's not a sin to laugh you know," Sakura sighed feeling a little bad.
"I was just trained that way, you know what I mean," Li sighed as he thought of the cards.
"Yeah I know," Sakura began. "But it's over, and we all can start from the beginning," Sakura pointed out trying to be positive.
"I guess," Li replied trying to smile, but he just couldn't get himself to smile.
Driing!!
"Alright, cya later," Li sighed as he stood back up.
"Help me up?" Sakura giggled as she extended her hand. Li shook his head and helped her up. He was too strong so she came up too fast, and now they were face to face. Li began to blush but shook his head in the other direction hoping she didn't see.
"What's wrong?" Sakura questioned as she brushed the dirt off her kilt.
"Nothing," Li replied. "Uh, some of my hair got in my face," Li quickly made up an excuse.
"Oh," Sakura smiled. "C'mon we're gonna be late," Sakura replied as she grabbed his hand.
They ran all the way to class. The rest of the day seemed to go by like a flash. Nothing much happened, just a lot of talking about tomorrow's dance. Every single time they did talk, Meilin threw another ball of paper at her. Finally the day ended.
"See you guys tomorrow!" Madison yelled as she turned to walk home.
"Yeah, cya!" Sakura replied. "Don't forget the dance at 7:00pm!" Sakura reminded.
"I won't!" Madison replied with a smile. Then at that she left.
"Hey Sakura!" Li yelled.
"Yeah?" Sakura replied as she turned around.
"I-" Li began. The out of nowhere Meilin came and grabbed his arm.
"There you are!," Meilin began. "I was looking everywhere for you!" Meilin sighed.
'Maybe I didn't want to be found!' Li thought as he rolled his eyes. Sakura saw Li and Meilin, so she just headed for home.
When she got home she just did her usual. She went up to her room, and changed her clothes.
"How was school Sakura?" Kero asked trying to make conversation.
"It was okay," Sakura sighed.
"Hmm...how about Meilin?" Kero asked as he gave her the eyebrow.
"She kept on throwing paper balls at me everytime I talked to Li," Sakura laughed.
"After three years, she hasn't changed a bit," Kero sighed as he rocked his index finger left to right. "I bet she's just jealous," Kero concluded as he crossed his arms.
"Of what?" Sakura asked in confusion.
"Nothing," Kero quickly replied. Then he began to smile. 'Sakura is still as clueless as she was four years ago,' Kero thought to himself.
"Sakura! Dinner!" Her father yelled.
"Coming!" Sakura replied. "Dessert?" Sakura teased.
"Always!" Kero yelled in shock. Then at that Sakura went downstairs for dinner.
"Wow, this looks really good Dad!" Sakura complimented with wide eyes.
"Thank you Sakura," Her father replied with a smile.
"Ha! Why all the sucking up squirt?" Tori teased.
"Huh?" Sakura questioned in confusion.
"If you wanted something from Dad, why don't you just come out with it?" Tori began. "Instead of wasting all of your energy," Tori concluded.
"I'm not!" Sakura yelled impatiently.
"It's alright Sakura," Mr. Kinomoto began. "Your brother was never good at compliments," he continued. "That's why he's taking it all on you," he concluded. Tori just shrugged. There was a few minutes of silence.
"Umm Dad," Sakura began.
"Yes?" Mr. Kinomoto replied after wiping his mouth.
"Can I go to the dance tomorrow?" Sakura asked nervously.
"Ha! I told you she needed something!" Tori began. "But no...nobody listens to Tori!" he concluded then he began to laugh.
"Ugh!" Sakura groaned in annoyance.
"Quiet Tori," Mr. Kinomoto teased.
"Yeah Tori, you just might choke on your food," Sakura began. "Then you just might end up getting..." Then Sakura kicks him in the ankle. "...hurt," Sakura conluded smiling.
"What time is the dance?" Mr. Kinomoto asked ignoring Tori's cries of pain.
"7:00pm" Sakura replied casually. "But Meilin is going to be there by...6:45pm," Sakura pointed out.
"I thought you don't like Meilin," Tori asked in confusion. Then Tori began to grin. "Or do you just want to get to the Chinese brat before she does?" he teased.
"Very funny," Sakura mumbled.
"Hmm...7:00pm huh?" Mr. Kinomoto thought outloud. "Well I guess you can go," he concluded.
"Really?!" Sakura and Tori exclaimed at the same time for two totally different reasons.
"Thank you so much!" Sakura cheered then kissed her father on the cheek. After she settled down she cleared her plate, and brought dessert up for Kero. When she got upstairs she just threw herself on the bed and sighed.
"Well, what are you so happy about?" Kero questioned as he gave her the eyebrow.
"Dad just let me go to the dance," Sakura replied with a big smile on her face.
"You must of done MAJOR sucking up!" Kero laughed.
"No, not really," Sakura thought about what Kero said.
"Oh well," Kero sighed. "You better get some rest," he continued. Then he began to rolled his eyes. "Tomorrow is going to be a long day,"
