A/N: Guys and Girls, I made a mistake in the last chapter say "Queen" for Xiao Lang Mother but it not. It suppose to be "Lady Li Yelan"


Last Time:

"Listen Kinomoto, do this if you don't want your sister's little neck cut. Listen well, forfeit the war".
"Why would I surrender to a gaki like you?"
"I'm not a gaki, I'm 20 for your information. Because you, Kinomoto just intruded onto the Li land and tried to take over it"!
"What would we want your sorry ass Li land for, we got our own land and it's better, where did you get that idea from?"
At that statement Xiao Lang was confused.
"Li, tell me something" came Sakura voice
"Uhhmm... sure" Xiao Lang replied as he let go of her.
"Did, by any chance was it was a guy in his mid-life man with snow white hair and blue sea eyes? With a long scar that runs down his left cheek?"


Love At First Fight

After the battle, one of the Li men found the mid-life man with the snow white hair and blue sea orbs. With the scar on his face which went down his cheek. With no time wasted they found out that the man was Isamu Usagi, a spy from the Hiroshi clan. His goal was to try and destroy both the Li and Kinomoto clan's, so that the Hiroshi land can rule over both land, including theirs. A messenger was than immediately sent to inform lord Kinomoto.

When the lord was resent, both the clan went into a intense discussion on what both the clan was going to do to the Hiroshi Clan and Isamu Usagi. After a lot of debates, and arguments both clan came up with 1. A(n) allies between both the clan, 2. have nothing to do with the Hiroshi, and 3. hang Isamu Usagi (A/N: I know how lame !, can't think of a better one !)

-Japan- Kinomoto Land - four year later

Xiao Lang been training all morning since dawn, and now the sun was burning intensely hot. So putting down his sword on the round stone table, he than grab his green towel that were beside his sword, and wipe off the sweat that was rolling down his face. Than sitting himself down on one of the stone stood that surround the stone table.

Getting comfortable he close his golden brown eyes and enjoy the tranquility that enclose him. Reopening his eyes he took in all the things that surround him. His eyes stops scanning the place when it landed on a cherry blossom tree that stood out from the rest.

Seeing the cherry blossom tree Xiao Lang bring to mind an green emerald beauty, that he have encounter during the battle.

"Sakura" Xiao Lang said out to no body but to himself as a smirk touches the corner of his lip.

Flashback

"Xiao Lang, it almost your 24 birthday ... "

But Yelen was cut by Xiao Lang sudden out blast "No Mother, I know where this topic is leading to and my answer to that is NO."

Xiao Lang then stood up and was about to leave, when his mother stop him.

"Xiao Lang sit back down and let me finish what I was saying, and I bet you would love it". Yelen say with a smirk on her face.

Listening to but her mother was saying, he sat back down. "Why do I suppose to LOVE anything you tell me" Xiao Lang retort dryly.

Yelen just went on like she didn't even hear the statement that her stubborn, hard headed son have make.

"Like I was saying early, it almost your 25th birthday, and you are to wed someone to claim your right as the leader of the Li clan".

"I know mother, is there another way, meaning I don't have to marry someone to get the spot"? said Xiao Lang hoping that his mother will say "YES".

"NO, and plus I already arrange one for you". Finish Yelen as a smile was display on her face.

Xiao Lang couldn't help but try to stay clam and control himself from exploding.

"Who is it this time mother"?

"Sakura Kinomoto" reply her mother at once, at the same time, a smirk touches her lip.

For a moment there he didn't even remember to breathe and when he finally comprehend what his mother just said a smirk appear on his lips.

End of Flashback

Coming back to the present time, he saw Eriol, who was the last person he wanted to see. As he got closer he can see his Mischief grin on his face, and those mysterious sapphire eye, that always seem to creep him out.

"What do you want Eriol"?

"Nothing but to come and see how my lilo cute cousin is doing" reply Eriol as a smirk appear on his face.

"Whip that smirk off, or I do it for you" He snare back at Eriol, but he just ignore Xiao Lang remark and act like he didn't hear him. And continue to walk toward him.

"Look at what I got Xiao Lang " As Eriol wave the scroll back and forth in front of Xiao Lang. then sit across from him.

"Not sure, here I read it"

He then open the scroll and read what was inside.

Daughter

Lady Kinomoto Sakura

of her 22nd Birthday.


::The Day of the Mask Ball::

"We wouldn't miss for the world, Lord Kinomoto"

Just as he finish those word, there on the top of the grand staircase stood the girl he saw 3 year ago, still have the beautiful emerald green eyes and the long honey brown hair. The different was that she was older then the last time he saw her in battle.

As she came down the staircase, his eye couldn't help but follow her. When she reach them, she greeted her father and Xiao Lang, but her father than excuse him self. "How do you do, my lady. " Said Xiao Lang as he took her hand and kiss it. " I'm doing great, how are you, if I may ask, my lord"? As she gave him one of her sweet simile. "same as you, thank you for asking" said Xiao Lang. "You Welcome Sir" she reply

Touya seeing the look in both their eye, which he didn't like one bit, went over to them cut in between them. Sakura ignoring her brother glare, excuse herself and went over to her father side, who was getting a glass of champagne (A/N: I don't know if they have any .. but I'm going to put it anyway ! )

She was halfway there when, all the light went out, as the whole room went pitch black. Sakura, can feel people pushing, and shoveling trying to get out. At the same time, she feel someone grab her to them and, and than a sharp metal blade at her throat.

As the light came back on again, she turn her head and saw that it was Tai Hiroshi, "What are you doing here Hiroshi" Sakura sneer, along with an unpleasant look on her face, and on the other hand, struggling to get free from his strong hold. "Awe .. I'm hurt that you are not happy to see me, lady Sakura, but it ok with me.

Anyway wish you a Happy Birthday"! said Tai as a grin was on his face, but turn upside down when he hear her next comment. "It would have been a Happy Birthday, to me if you haven't show up" said sakura as, she kept on struggling to get free.

The crowd watch, and surround them, as both Sakura and Tai argue. Touya, Lord Kinomoto, and Xiao Lang Move closer into the crowd, until they saw both Sakura and Tai.

"Tai you damn mother fucker asshole, get your hand away from my sister, or else you going to regrets ever touching her". Threaten Touya, as he was hold back by Lord Kinomoto and Xiao Lang.

"Calm down Kinomoto, I have a plan, if you don't you going to mess it up". Xiao Lang said, at that Touya started to calm down, and see what he got in mind.

Touya then saw that Xiao Lang, stated to back up into the crowd and disappear. What is that kid, up to? Touya wonder, as he turn and leave.

"Calm down Kinomoto, I have a plan, if you don't you going to mess it up". I told the older Kinomoto. "What I'm going to do is sneak up behind him and, take him by surprise". I told him and also " for you as soon as you see me disappear into the crowd, you go and get the guards". Touya look down onto me and give me one of his dark glare, which I gladly glare back. "What make you think I take order from a gaki like your self" he reply darkly. "How about, if i told you that your dear sister life is on the line, and it better than doing nothing"

Touya, couldn't do anything but did what he was told. Looking up to see the Hiroshi dude having his baby sister, making him want to tear the dude into tiny little piece, and than feed to the wild dogs. Still can't believe he, himself is taking an order from the gaki.

When Xiao Lang, was close enough, he went first and grab the dagger, since he didn't wanted to bring harm to lady Kinomoto. Tai, let go of Sakura and strike back at Xiao Lang. But he move before the punch landed on his face. Tai than seize the dagger out of Xiao Lang grasp, pushing him out of the way. Went straight for Lord Kinomoto, Sakura who, saw what was coming toward her father.

Went and place herself, in front of her father. Closing her eye, and wait fir the sharp metal blade, to make contact with her skin. But it never came, confuse she open her eyes, and saw that the blade of the dagger was and inch from her throat, And also, that Lord Xiao Lang Li hand was, griping onto the sharp metal blade, from coming toward her, as his blood also line the bottom of the dagger, with some drip onto the floor.

Xiao Lang, than let go of the metal blade and did a high kick, and kick Tai in the chin, as it sent him flying across the ballroom. He stood up, and wipe the blood on the side of his lip, with his hand. Just as he finish dusting himself, Touya walk in with the guards behind him. As they march in, the people around make way for them to walk by.

Before the guard reach him, he threaten "Sakura, your MINE to beinging with, and will end up beinging MINE, also ... " as he being to slowly back up toward the window to his right " ... I'll be Back for you, Lady Sakura Kinomoto" as he jump out of the window smirking to himself

As Tai Disappear, into the darkness, Sakura recall on what he have threaten her ..."Sakura, your MINE to beinging with, and will end up beinging MINE, also ... " as he being to slowly back up toward the window to his right " ... I'll be Back for you, Lady Sakura Kinomoto" as he jump out of the window smirking to himself ...
