All is Fair in Love and War
Chapter Four:
Fate of Two
"Sakura,
you and your brother said that the boy possessed magic with in him," Kero said
as he flew to Sakura on her bed.
"He
could be the other cardcaptor," Sakura stated.
"And
your brother said that other young man that was with him had magic too," Kero
stated.
"Very interesting," Kero continued as he
rubbed his chin.
Sakura
stood from her bed and walked to her window and if you looked closely you could
see the Li kingdom in the far distance.
"I
have to see him again," Sakura said out of the blue.
"What?"
Kero asked as he was slapped out of his thoughts.
"I
have to see him again," Sakura repeating.
"His
eyes they were like nothing I have never seen before," Sakura said as she
turned to him.
"It
seems he did cast a spell on you," Kero laughed.
"Oh,
Kero," Sakura said as she turned back to her window.
"Well
if he is the other cardcaptor then, I should meet him," Kero said as he flew
over to the window.
"But
what if he isn't," Sakura asked.
"I
guess, then we kept on searching," Kero as he looked in the direction that
Sakura was looking at.
Far
off in the distance stood a young man looking across the sky in search of an
answer of a question that burned in his heart. His sight couldn't help but fall on the castle that was in the
distance. It stroke him funny how close
and yet so far he was from the young woman who's imaged seem to be wedged in
his mind. He turned to find a young man
with blue hair and blue eyes that stood by his friend Yukito. He smiled and called to him.
"Eriol,
cousin, where have you been?" Xiaolong asked his the young man.
"I
have been waiting for you," Eriol said as he came closer to give his cousin a
hug. Eriol was not really his cousin
but he was brought up as one of the Li Clan. Xiaolong and Eriol had been best friends since they were little. Xiaolong was forced to go to the academy and
Eriol was forced to stay and be thought how to be a gentleman of the court.
"Yukito
has told me of your encounter," Eriol whisper as he let go of Xiaolong.
"I
don't understand," Eriol continued," Is she the other cardcaptor?"
Yukito
and Xiaolong replied an "I don't know." Xiaolong kept his eyes on the castle in the distance all the time.
"Xiaolong?"
Yukito called.
Xiaolong
looked back at Yukito and said," I don't understand this feeling I'm
receiving. I need to see her
again. He eyes they were beautiful
Yukito did you not see them?"
"Not
as much as you did," Yukito answered. Then he remembered the Prince's eyes and how beautiful they were, and
how he seem drawn to them.
"The
Prince seemed nice enough," Xiaolong broke his thoughts.
"He
did?" Eriol asked.
Xiaolong
nodded as Yukito turned away so they could not see him blushing at the mere mention
of him. Xiaolong turned to Yukito and
noticed his strange reaction but didn't say a thing for fear that he would
embarrass him.
"Oh,
Xiaolong I have some news for you but I don't if it is bad or good?" Eriol
stated.
"Oh,
out with it," Xiaolong asked curiously.
"You
are to be wed," Eriol said.
Xiaolong
went pale and asked," To whom?"
"Do
you remember Lady Meilin?" Eriol asked.
"Not
really, but I wish that you speak of it no further," Xiaolong pleaded.
"As
you wish," Eriol said.
"I
can't believe this," Xiaolong sighed.
"Tomorrow's
a other day," Yukito stated.
Xiaolong
sighed as he walked away to his room tomorrow is another say. But will he be able to live through it. Yukito and Eriol followed him into the
castle doors that seem to be his destiny to hide behind.
The
sun rose to greet a new morning and to start a new day in our lovers' life.
Sakura
and Touya had convinced their father that it would do them go if they rode in
to the forest. Touya if anything were
to happen he would protect Sakura. The
king knew he could not say to them so he let them leave. They rode in the same direction where they
have meet the young boy hoping for no reason, well maybe to see if there was
anything there that would be gave more information on Prince Xiaolong.
Eriol,
Yukito and Xiaolong had decided to do the same thing. Eriol wanted to see the place where his best friend had meet this
girl. Yukito and Xiaolong wanted to go
so they could see if they could possible see them again. But they doubted they would see them, but
little did they know.
"Wait,
we are near the border," Xiaolong said.
"As
much as I want to see if she is the other cardcaptor, but last time we got away
with being there but I don't thing they want us in their kingdom," Xiaolong
continued.
Eriol
and Yukito nodded as they were about to leave they heard a branch break.
"Who's
there?" Eriol asked.
"Who
are you?" Yukito asked.
"I
don't mean to be rude but who would wish to know?" a familiar voice called as
two figures on horseback appeared. As the figures came closer they were surprise
to find out it was the Prince Touya and Princess Sakura.
