Card Captor Sakura Fan Fiction ❯ The Mix of Love and Time ❯ Beautiful Lies ( Chapter 5 )

 

Here is chappie 5 tell me if it is to confusing...

 

Now usually when a person falls in love; it is something to be celebrated, to be congratulated, but when one is engaged to a very powerful man and is in love with someone you have only met once, things are a little different.

 

After the happiness of falling in love wore off on Sakura she was left with this sort of dread, not that she wasn't worried about the Male Majesty, that she would never see the man in the glass wall again. I would like to write that she did, they got together had hundreds of children and died fat and happy, but that would be terribly dull and far too good of an ending to such a sad beginning. So this is where the story begins to pick up.

 

Beautiful Lies

 

Chapter 5

 

Several days after the meeting of Sakura and Li in the glass wall, Sakura had another meeting with her intended but this one would leave her with such hurt that she hadn't experienced since her parents death.

 

“Sakura, come here my love and tell me why you are troubled.”

 

Sakura looked up to face the handsome blonde across the very long table in front of her and flashed him a smile.

 

“Nothing is troubling me my lord I know exactly what I must do but I am afraid of the consequences of my actions.

 

The Majesty sighed with his hazel eyes twinkling “You haven't broken something else have you.”

 

Sakura blushed and stuttered “O-of course not it's just… just, I… ummm”

 

“Just tell me what it is and I'll replace it.” A bemused Majesty answered.

 

“That's not it I, uh…”

 

“Sakura there is nothing to be worried about. If I got angry at you every time you broke something…”

 

“I DON'T LOVE YOU”

 

The Majesty's eyes widened

 

Sakura looked down “and I can't marry you. I'm sorry I am in love with someone else.”

 

“No.”

 

Sakura looked up and saw the face of an extremely angry man.

 

“No Sakura.” He said clearly “YOU… will not make me live out this guilt. I will no longer be responsible for anymore life loss. YOU WILL MARRY ME and I WILL lose my throne and then you can `love' whom ever you like.”

 

“What are you talking about? What life loss? And I can't marry you.” Her gown wrinkled as she sat straighter in her chair.

 

The Majesty stood up and began walking towards Sakura “You stupid, stupid girl.” He spat out “How dare you say what you can and can not do. I am the ruler of this island and whatever I say, whatever I want, whatever I DO is law.” He was now nose to nose with the frightened girl “YOU WILL MARRY ME!”

 

Sakura was pinned between his arms and the chair but kept her head high

“I can not and will not. I don't understand!”

 

A loud slap echoed through the hall way.

 

The Majesty had lost all composure; hair was flying wildly as Sakura flew across the room.

 

“You don't understand.” He laughed as he stalked to where Sakura landed “You don't want to understand, no one does. Why are there necklaces Sakura, why are there no droughts, no famine, no disease? Why Sakura… WHY?”

 

Sakura shook her head in reply “I don't know.” She had tears running down her cheeks.

 

The Majesty looked a Sakura with an evil smile “Would you like to understand?”

 

Not knowing what would happen if she said no, she complied and the Majesty drew her to her feet and they began to walk to the direction of the glass wall.

 

As they were walking, the Majesty pushed Sakura along and began his story.

 

“I'll start from the very beginning. Everyone knows what started the most recent wars, the ones your father died in, it was Hate who was jealous of our success and wanted our land, but the Great War was nothing like that.”

 

“Back when my great-grandfather was the Majesty, Love was a dismal place, it was slowly decaying. My great-grandfather was a kind man but needed help, Time was Love's savior. Time was an expanding country with great wealth and happy people, but most importantly, Time was ruled by a kind Queen who took pity on Love and did all in her power to save it. The Queen and The Majesty made a bargain that since Time had no army, that Love would be trained as one and would come to Time's call in any case of need.”

 

“Time passed and so did Love and Time's rulers. Love flourished with army camps and became one of the greatest military bases in the known land. Time became more and more successful with an army to back it up, but somewhere Time became… self-centered and looked at Love as more of a mandate instead of an independent country.”

 

The Majesty paused as a story teller would when they know that someone's life was about to get a lot crappier.

 

“Taxes on Love were implemented and harsher rules were laid down, my grandfather was forced to be humiliated and helpless to stop it. But one day a prince of Time was walked by the most beautiful girl he had ever seen, and since he thought he owned Love and its people he raped her and took her back to Time with him. That girl was unfortunately my grandfather's intended and future Female Majesty of Love.”

 

“Oh my majesty… what did your grandfather do?”

 

“He invaded Time killed all the royal family and took back his intended." the Majesty said simply "in order to do all that it took a lot from his country and he needed a way to make his country whole again and he used the anger of his intended to do it.”

 

“She was the daughter of a powerful mage named Clow Reed, her name was Ruby Moon. She came up with the idea to transfer emotions into energy that could be used to heal bodies and grow food. The original purpose of the necklaces was just simply to state your position in Love, but Ruby transformed them into energy carriers that could be used to heal anything dieing or misshapen.”

 

“The only problem was there was no way to take the emotions of others and turn them into energy. So, Clow created two animals of Sun and Moon, one for taking the emotions and the other for distributing them to the necklaces.”

 

He made a gesture of waving his hand into himself and then putting it up against the wall in remorse.

 

“And ever since then, the people of Time have been suffering and dieing just so Love could flourish. So Sakura you must marry me, I can no longer live with the guilt. I can no longer have sleepless nights that I know everything but can do nothing”

 

The Majesty was now leaning against a wall and Sakura was crying into his shoulder.

 

“That's terrible no one should have to live like that… no one deserves that.”

 

“No. No one deserves that.”

 

Sakura turned around and saw they were already in the glass wall room and the man that spoke was man she loved, but didn't know.

 

The Majesty looked unimpressed until he gazed around “YUE! What the hell are you doing here you worthless piece of shit.” his eyes glaring at the Seraph “Trying to stop the wind again? Don't you get it …?”

 

“Yes” Yue hissed “I get it more than you do and at least I am trying to stop it unlike you. You are just trying to ignore your responsibilities.”

 

“It can not be stopped.”

 

A soft voice interrupted them “You mean your not trying to stop it?”

 

“Sakura.” The Majesty warned

 

Touya raised his eyes and stared at the girl.

 

“YOU'RE NOT TRYING TO STOP IT AT ALL? After everything you told and all the people getting hurt YOUR NOT TRYING ANYTHING?” as Sakura started pounding her fists on his chest.

 

Syaoran then started staring at the pretty girl, with flushed cheeks.

 

“Stop this insistent screaming right now.”

 

All looked to the dark haired beauty that had entered the room with two huge beasts in tow.

 

“Ruby Moon, you bitch” Yue said in a flat tone.

 

“Yue, are you still trying to stop me? You should deal with it like the worm over there has, I can not be stopped. Not by you or anyone.”

 

“Oh I'll stop you and send you straight to hell, where you came from.”

 

“Empty threats from a guard, oh I am so scared.” Ruby rolled her eyes and placed a hand on her cheek.

 

“You should be. I will revenge my family from what you caused.” said a wingless Yue.

 

“Oh Yukito, so you are still alive? What a pity. So, Yukito still the last heir of your pitiful throne. I will soon have your head adorned in my chamber like the rest of your family.”

 

“You're…” Sakura started “Ruby Moon? Are you the girl who was raped and kidnapped?”

 

“Bull shit!” Syaoran accused “she was the one who ran away to get away from her husband and lied to everyone to cause a war. She was…”

 

“SHUT UP you little ingrate before I kill you.” Ruby hissed as she raised her arm straight out to send a spell.

 

“Don't you dare touched my beloved.” Sakura threatened

 

What the hell is she talking about? I don't even know her. Syaoran thought.

 

“Don't worry dear I can kill him without even touching him want to see?”

 

“Wait …”

 

Syaoran was forced to his knees by an invisible enemy and was struggling for breath.

 

“No.” Sakura screamed as Yue swooped up Syaoran and flew off with him.

 

“This isn't over.” Touya glared as he turned away to catch up.

 

“No dear you can't end a fight that you never began.” was the last thing Sakura heard before she blacked out.

 

“Ruby was that really necessary.” The Majesty questioned as looking down at the unconscious girl on the floor.

 

“Yes, it was slave.” causing the Majesty to wince.

 

“Now Spinal” Ruby turned around to face the two beasts.

 

“Yes, my Lady.” A big, black cat-like beast with wings answered.

 

“Do what you were created for and Kero…”

 

“Yes, my lady.” A golden beast much like the other answered.

 

“Get ready to transport the energy. Now we will carry on as we always have, let the people of Time, that couldn't save me, suffer.”

 

“Yes, my lady.” The two beasts answered.

 

“May I go Ruby?” The Majesty asked

 

“Yes you spineless fool you may go.” The Majesty turned

 

“And your Majesty…” The Majesty turned “make sure the girl doesn't do anything stupid or your head will be the price. Now my slaves let's get started.”

 

The Majesty walked out of the room and wondered what Ruby meant by the people of Time not saving her.

 

TA Da the plot has been revealed. And if you are confused about what really happened, the only thing I'll tell you that there are two stories; each one puts a different person at fault, which is really to blame? That is me to know and for you to wait for the next chapter.

 

Here is a little info on the necklaces:

 

They act as energy carriers but also still as position keepers. So since Sakura was only the daughter of a lowly soldier she had pretty low status but with the shame of her mother's suicide she became a little better than dirt. And every family has two necklaces, one for each partner and they are connected, that is why The Majesty would lose his throne and also why Sakura's mother knew when her Father had died. See… well maybe you don't so review and ask questions… PLEASE REVIEW.
