The Tale of Princess Sakura Kinomoto and Prince Syaoran Li
Chapter One; Setting the scene.
"There is simply no way that I will agree"
Seated on a long table in the Kinomoto Palace dinning room, the King sat as well as Prince Li of The Li Kingdom acting as an ambassador for his country. Numerous guards from either side were standing around the room and the Prince's long time advisor was seated next to him.
"But I don't think you understand! This is not out of greediness or hunger for power, the Li Kingdom need that weapon to protect our land. The Shodou's are craving more and more control and if we don't set them back now they will attack the Li Country and then move onto the Kinomoto Kingdom." Prince Li took a breath after his speech, staring at King Fujitaka hard.
Just then the huge doors at the entrance of the chamber opened up to reveal a pretty young girl with huge emerald eyes and long, long auburn hair. She was dressed in a long white dress with cherry blossoms embroidered on the bottom and on the short sleves. She wore barely any jewelry except for a small pink key around her neck. (A/N 3 guesses what that is ppl.)
The whole room was silent, talking in the beauty and innocence of the girl before them.
"Erm, hi daddy, I didn't know you had company. I'm very sorry to disturb you!"
The King's eyes softened. It was a well-known fact in the palace that the Princess meant everything to her father.
"That is quite alright my dear," Fujitaka stood up and looked around the room, "Prince Li, Sir Higawazii this is my daughter, Princess Sakura of the Kinomoto kingdom."
Sakura smiled softly. Prince Li nodded stiffly whereas his companion stood up, walked over to the princess where she stood looking rather alarmed.
The young man took the youthful girls hand and kissed it.
"Princes Sakura, I am very pleased to make your acutance"
Sakura blushed lightly and curtsied,
"Why, thank you, kind Sir"
Prince Li just grimaced and shook his head. Eriol had a reputation for wooing the ladies and Li had learnt to just leave him to it.
"Now, now, please call me Eriol"
The emerald-eyed girl smiled a little and nodded, then turned her attention to her father.
"What is it you wanted, my beloved daughter?" Fujitaka smiled warmly.
"Oh, just to inform you that I was going to the town."
"Not on your own I should hope."
Sakura shook her head making the ringlets in her hair bob up and down.
"No, no! Tomoyo is coming with me, of course!"
The King sighed,
"Sakura, you know what I mean!"
Fujitaka turned to a guard of who was standing on his left,
"Takarii, please may you escort the princess to the town with her friend"
Takarii nodded and walked towards the girl.
"But daddy!!! I'm 16! I do not need an escort!"
"Although that may be true, you are a 16 year old princess. Who knows what may happen!"
As Sakura started to protest, the King merely shook his head.
"Sakura, leave it, I am in a very important meeting. Either have a guard escort you or don't go at all."
"Fine, whatever" and with that the princess skulked out the room with her guard in toe.
"I do apologise Prince Li. Now where were we?" the King started.
"No, I think we should leave our discussion here for the day and start again tomorrow." Prince Li commented, standing up.
Eriol turned and gave a Li a puzzled frown.
Fujitaka nodded, "Very well. Tomorrow at noon?"
The Prince nodded and left the large hall with Eriol following him closely.
As the unlikely couple sat in the palace's huge grounds in silence, Eriol suddenly spoke.
"What are you planning, Syaoran?" he asked with a sideways glance.
"What do you mean?" the amber boy asked roughly.
"Well, I have never known you to give up so easily." The boy replied with no emotion in his voice.
Syaoran sighed ruefully.
"Eriol, you know me too well. We have been in negotiations for 3 days now and have gotten nowhere." The prince lowered his voice, "We must take far more drastic action."
Eriol looked at his friend curiously.
"What do you propose?"
"Well, it is clear to see how much he favors his young brat of a daughter so there is where we must proceed."
Eriol looked shocked.
"Young Brat indeed! She is only two years younger than you! And you can not call the Princess a brat merely because she does not like to followed around by a guard all day! Sakura is innocent by all means! Do you not think this a little drastic?"
Syaoran just rolled his eyes, "It is this or watch our kingdom fall. I know what I will choose."
Eriol sighed heavily,
"Okay...when?"
Syaoran looked Eriol directly in the eye and answered with one word.
"Tonight"
As the sun beat out across the market in Laurii town, Sakura and Tomoyo walked from stall to stall looking for anything that took their fancy..
"Tomoyo, we've been shopping all day," Sakura sighed, "I'm so bored!"
Tomoyo, daughter of a landlord in the kingdom, was Sakura's best friend and had been since they were five or at least could remember. Tomoyo was the near polar opposite of her close girlfriend. Where Sakura was very dense and innocent, Tomoyo was extremely 'clued-in' and knew exactly where she was going and what she wanted to do. Tomoyo loved to make loved to make clothes and buy accessories to dress Sakura and although the Princess detested it, she let her friend do as she pleased, as she knew how happy it made her. Sakura was a very loyal girl and made friends easily although her father was very protective and didn't allow her to socialize too often with unknown crowds.
"Mou, Sakura-chan! We've only been shopping for 4 hours!! I just know I'll find the perfect material for your new battle outfit!! It has to be around here somewhere!" Tomoyo frowned when Sakura elbowed her.
"Tomoyo! Could you speak any louder?! Takarii is just behind us!! Plus, all the Sakura cards are fine and I haven't faced a threat for." Sakura looked far off for a moment, "..a whole two years!"
Tomoyo shuddered as she turned behind to look at Takarii following them at a distance. Although the auburn-haired girl had not noticed, Tomoyo certainly had. Ukariyl Takarii had a 'thing' for Sakura, as did many of the men that worked in the palace. Many of these employees would never act on such a thing but the amethyst-eyed girl didn't trust the tall soldier as far as she could throw him.
"Well, one can never be too prepared!!" the teen exclaimed.
"So I've heard!" Sakura muttered to herself.
Behind her Takarii coughed slightly and moved forward to join them.
"What was that, Princess?" the blond-haired man asked frowning.
"Huh? Oh! Just that I'd like to be getting home now. I'm awfully tried!"
Sakura shrugged helplessly as Tomoyo shot daggers at her. Although, Tomoyo, being the girl she was, couldn't stay mad at her best friend for long and was soon chattering about all that she had brought.
"Follow me to the carriage, ladies." Takarii called, "You can sit next to me if you wish Princess."
Sakura didn't know what to say and froze, looking at Tomoyo for help.
"Well, actually Takarii, I had something I wished to discuss with Sakura so is it okay if she sits next to me? It is awfully important" Tomoyo smiled what she hoped was a persuasive smile at the guard.
Sakura frowned and then as compression dawned on her, she too smiled sweetly at the man.
Takarii looked between both girls and gave in, "Erm, well of course."
"Thank you, Takarii!" Sakura called as she climbed into the royal carriage. With its elegant emerald exterior and noble gray horses, many of the town's people stopped what they were doing to look at the Princess. Sakura, noticing this, waved from the carriage, grinning.
And with that, the carriage left for the palace.
