Sakura in Paris
Part Four: The Arrival at Paris
(The group comes crawling on hands and knees back into the room.)
Raye (Whispering to Ameoba Boy): Is the coast clear?
Ameoba Boy: I donknow! You go see!
(Raye, Heaven, Max, Li, and Sakura look at each other and nod. Ameoba Boy is forcibly picked up and thrown into the room.)
Ameoba Boy: Oww!
(Psycho and the Blair Witch look up.)
Psycho: Hey, Ameoba Boy! C'mon, the movie's getting to a good part.
(Ameoba Boy gulps and waves the others in.)
Raye (Whispering): We're gonna try and survive the next few hours! Meanwhile, enjoy my next fanfic part!

Short and sweet's the ticket.
Sakura was bouncing up and down in her plane seat. "I can see the Eiffel Tower!"
Li was trying very hard to calm her down and keep his lunch at the same time. The sight of a bouncing Sakura was very upsetting to him.
"Calm down Sakura! We're starting to land!"
Kero snickered from his spot in Sakura's bookbag, hanging from the overhead compartment, at the sight of such and uncomfortable Li. "Serves the Brat right..."
The plane bumped down, and all of the suitcases, and several very heavy ones there were, slammed into Kero. As they rolled away again, a very angry Kero was squashed flat.
"Ow."
"Look! There's Jacque!" Sakura exclaimed as she walked down the staircase. She grabbed Li's hand and pulled him along after her. Li was too busy preventing himself from falling to be happy about the slight contact.
Kero groaned. "I don't feel so good.... Maybe I shouldn't have eaten that Twinkie....."
Jacque grinned and bowed politely to the laughing Sakura, who was still holding Li's hand.
"Chere`! 'Tis good to see you again!"
"It's good to see you too, Jacque!" Sakura stopped laughing and began blushing furiously as she realized that Li's hand was still in hers. She slowly released it.
"And this is?"
"Li. Li Showron." Li said politely, bowing to to the black-suited elderly man, partly to hide his embarrassment.
"Are you both good friends, yes?" Jacque asked knowingly.
Sakura's blush deepened. "He's a good friend from Japan, Jacque."
Jacque nodded and pointed to their luggage. "I'll shall unburden you both, if you wish."
The two nodded and willingly handed the suitcases over. Kero groaned softly as they got into the long black limo.
"Your Grandmother must be well-off." Li whispered in awe.
Jacque chuckled from the front seat. "Madame` Marie is everyone's Grannie, young Sir. She is pleased when others refer to 'er as Grannie Marie."
An hour later, the limo pulled into the winding driveway of a very fancy house in the middle of the country. A long vineyard was to the right of the mansion, and long field of wheat on the left, and a massive garden, maze and pond in the back.
Sakura grinned as she and Li followed Jacque up the stairs to the trellis-like doors. A young maid opened the doors and bowed them in.
"Hello, Ranea!" Sakura said happily to the maid. She smiled and shut the doors after them.
"And who is the 'andsome Missueir?" Ranea whispered jealously to Sakura.
"A friend from Japan, Ranea. Please don't tease him." Sakura said softly. Ranea grinned and tapped the bridge of her nose.
"A course, Chere`."
"Sakura! Dear! You've made it!"
Sakura and Ranea looked up as a aristocratic woman began gliding down the winding marble staircase, a long feather fan held in a long-fingered hand. Her black sequin and satin dress whispered on the stone. She had gray hair that was piled on top of her head in a mass of curls. Diamonds glittered around her throat, wrists, fingers, and in her hair.
"Grannie Marie!" Sakura said happily as she embraced the woman. "You look well!"
Grannie Marie waved the compliment aside. "That's what they all say. My old bones only get older, and it gets 'arder to get up each morning. But enough of that. Dear, you look wonderful! Such a lovely young lady! Did you not bring a friend with you?"
Sakura nodded and pulled away from Grannie Marie. She grabbed Li's hand and pulled him forward. "This is Li. Li, this is my Grannie Marie."
Li blushed and bowed, mumbling his thanks for being invited. Grannie Marie grinned wider.
"I see. 'Ave you been friends long?"
"Almost four years now, Grannie Marie." Sakura said, blushing in an identical way to Li.
Grannie Mari nodded. "Good. 'Tis always good to 'ave good friends. Well, Ranea, Jacque, why not show them to their rooms. We'll talk after you've settled in. I've so much planned for us to do!"
Li and Sakura waved to Grannie Marie as they followed Jacque and Marie up the staircase.
Getting good soon!
Sakura: I love this movie!
(Li nods and passes the popcorn bowl to Sakura.)
Max: The Mummy's our fav movie! Brendan Fraser is beyond hot!
(Raye, Heaven, Psycho, Max, and Sakura sigh dreamily. Ameoba Boy and Li begin to glare angrily at Brendan Fraser on the tv.)
Blair Witch (nodding in agreement): I could just eat him up!
(Everyone shoots nervous glances at the witch.)
Raye: Oooh! Oooh! The next part is just great!
