HONG-KONG

"And the finalists of the martial arts tournament are Ryou Shimizu and Syaoran Li." announced a man standing on the stage referring to the two young men sitting in their respective seats in front of the stage.

Ryou Shimizu, son a famous and wealthy businessman, Haru Shimizu. Being the heir of the Shimizu group of companies, one of the top companies in Asia and his mother being a top model, his name was almost on the front page of every newspaper. Tall about 6'3 with jet black hair and aquamarine blue eyes complementing his rather fair complexion and sculpted body he is usually on top of the ladies list.

Syaoran Li, heir to the next Li Corporations is a rather dashing looking man. At the young age of eighteen he takes part in business which is temporarily run by his mother Yelen. At the age of twenty he is going to take the position as the president of the Li Corp. which was left to him after his father's death. Constantly spotted in discos and clubs with his friends he is quite a ladies man. Tall, with a well built body, messy chocolate brown hair and a pair of amber coloured eyes and dazzling smile.

"…the match will be held after a month in Hong Kong, I congratulate both the finalists for making it so far. Get yourselves in top condition before the match and now I bid farewell to everybody and hope to see you at the next match." With that the speaker finished his speech just as the two finalists rose from their seats to exit the place.

It was only supposed to be a martial arts competition and not many would be interested in watching it but having the finalists being Ryou Shimizu and Syaoran Li it was quite a show. Because it wasn't a simple fight, it was a fight between the two rival families…it was going to be a match of the century.

HONG KONG AIRPORT:

"The flight has landed in Hong Kong. The passengers are allowed to take off their seatbelts and proceed to the exits. We hope it has been a good journey and hope you give us another chance to serve you. The staff of Jet Airways wishes you have a wonderful time in Hong Kong" spoke the pilot from the intercom in English then in Japanese and then in Chinese.

"Wake up, wake up Sakura" said a middle-aged women in a motherly tone to a asleep passenger.

"Is everything alright ma'am" said a air hostess who had come to see what was wrong with this passenger since everyone was already off the flight.

"Sorry but my goddaughter is a bit of a heavy sleeper and she doesn't seem to wake up" replied Sonomi in a very awkward and embarrassed tone.

"She isn't waking up is she, mother" came another tone.

"This will wake her up" said the amethyst eyed girl as she poured a bottle of water on her best friend or the sleeping passenger.

"Oi….I'm awake onii-chan, stop throwing water" said the not awake passenger, rubbing her eyes as she got up already half soaked in water.

When she opened her eyes she didn't her find her so called onii-chan but her friend Tomoyo and her godmother Sonomi looking at her with a pleased look and the rest of the flight crew.

"Aaaaaaaaahhhhhh…I'm so sorry, I overslept" yelled Sakura as she stood up straight trying to avoid more humiliation but to her misfortune only bumped her head to the flights luggage compartment .Laughter was heard from the crew but that was noting in a teasing manner.

"Hehehe…he, sorry" said a very very very very embarrassed Sakura Kinomoto.

"It's alright let me help you up" said the airhostess whose name was Aya ,and helped Sakura out and then escorted her and her family to the airport terminal where they can get their luggage.

A chauffeur was waiting for them there where he took care of their luggage and got in loaded in a limo while Sakura ,Tomoyo and Sonomi headed to the Daidouji mansion in another Limo(since the luggage was too much to fit in one…mostly due to the fact that Tomoyo packed them…hehehe).

DAIDOUJI MANSION:

As they reached the mansion, they went to their rooms to freshen up before the maids serve them snacks and tea.(their mansion was almost the same as the one in Japan but a little smaller).

When Sakura came downstairs for tea, she found that her and Tomoyo's luggage was still in the limo and was not being unloaded.

"Auntie, why aren't Tomo-Chan and my luggage being unloaded" asked Sakura out of mere curiosity.

"Oh, didn't Tomoyo tell you" replied Sonomi as she was drinking her tea

"Tell me what?" asked Sakura still confused.

"That we aren't staying here at the mansion, we are staying in our own apartment near the university…isn't that cool Sakura" replied a starry eyed Tomoyo coming down the stairs

"Cool, it is." Replied Sakura, really happy for two reasons, one that she and Tomoyo can stay independently for the other because she doesn't want to make a fool out of herself in front of her auntie's clients judging from today's experience of how clumsy she can get at times.
