Author's Notes:  Am sorry about the chapter before, it wasn't good.  The reason I changed the name of the kingdom was because centuries and generations have passed so names have to change too.  I guess I got the idea because, Li Syaoran is a direct descendant of Clow Reed but he doesn't have the same last name, so I thought I could do the same thing with them.  As for the bad grammar, I'm trying I really am.  Most of the time, I can't understand myself.  Sorry I took so long to update this chapter but I have so much stuff to do I haven't truly had the time.

All is Fair in Love And War Chapter 12: War         As the rain poured Prince Touya heard the sound of distant soldiers marching onto the field.  Why did he hear soldiers?  Was he losing his mind?  But he wasn't. With all of the strength he had, he stood on his two feet and limped in the direction of clatter and saw to his amazement, a field of foot soldiers followed by cavalry walking from his kingdom to the direction of the Li Kingdom.           But this was too quickly, how could they get a legion of soldiers ready for battle in less than one day, had they been at each other's throats for so long that, they need one simple thing to start a war, did they truly hate each other that much.         But this wasn't like his father to start a war so quickly.  Father had more logic than to go into war without thinking; something was wrong, very wrong.  Then he saw what he expected to see, soldiers on the opposite side of the field marching towards them, ready to start.   The thunder roared above him causing him to shiver.          "Touya, we need to get Sakura and the others out of their, they are the only ones who have a change of stopping this" Kero stated as he placed his hand on Touya's shoulder.         In the Li Kingdom, Eriol was walking down to the stables to retrieve his horse and search for Xiaolang.  He knew the Kinomoto Kingdom did not have them.  He didn't how he knew, but he knew.  He looked around once he reached the stables if anyone was around.  Once he thought he was alone, he walked to his horse, he thought he was alone, but…         "Eriol, what are you doing?" a voice from behind asked.         He turned to be face to face with Meilin.         "Meilin, what are you doing here?" Eriol asked rather nervously.         "I asked you first," Meilin stated.         "Um, am going to go searching for Xiaolang and Yukito," Eriol answered as he mounted his horse.         "Wait, am going with you," Meilin stated as she walked to her steed.

            "No, you can't," Eriol said too quickly.

        "Why?" Meilin asked.

        "Because they don't know that I am searching for him, I believe that he is not within the Kinomoto Kingdom.  I believe someone else has him," Eriol answered sincerely.

        "How do you know?" Meilin asked.

        "I don't know how I know, but I do.  Both of us, can't go they will see something is wrong," Eriol told her.

        Meilin sighed and nodded.  She dismounted and waved as he rode off.

        (If he thinks that am going to wait here, while he goes searching for Xiaolang that he has another thing coming, Xiaolang is my friend too.) Meilin thought.

        She walked up to her steed and mounted and rode off to follow Eriol.

        Inside the old Lin Manor…

        "Sir, the girl has awoken," a guard standing outside of Sakura's bedroom/cell shouted to the leader.  The man who was known as the leader arose, from his seat near a window, he had been watching the rain descend from the bleak sky above him.  To any fearful person it would appear that the end was coming.

        He walked to the door and opened the door to her prison.  Inside the room, he found a young Sakura sitting on the bedroom in the middle of the room.  She had been staring outside her window with iron bars.  She turned to look at him.

        "Who are you?" she asked as she arose from the bed.

        "Where am I?" she continued.

        The man just stood their rubbing his birthmark over his left eye, before he answered.

        "Well, Princess, you are my quest," he simply answered.

        "But who are know?" she asked again.

        He walked up to her and took her hand which she tried to pull away but she couldn't he was too strong.  He twisted her hand causing her to cry out in pain, and whispered in her ear," Someone you do not want to enrage."

        He let her go and pushed her to the bed and just walked out of the room.

        "Xiaolang, please help me," Sakura whispered as a tear fall down her face.

       

"Sakura," Xiaolang gasped as he awoke from his sleep.

He knew Sakura needed him, he knew his Sakura would never do this to him, them he thought when did Sakura become his.

Xiaolang struggled to get free from the chains that held him.

Closed his eyes her searched and searched from Yukito.  He found him; he was not far from him.   He felt other aura near by but none of anyone he knew.  Then gasped when he found three familiar auras, four actually.

The door to his prison suddenly opened wide to see a solitary figure stood in the doorway.   

"I see, you have awaken," the figure stated.

"What do you want from me," Xiaolang demanded.

"You are my prisoner, I merely am here to give you a choice," he stated.

He came closer to Xiaolang; the shadows could conceal his demon like red eyes.

"What choice?" Xiaolang asked.

"I only captured you because the king and the royal family demanded me too.  I truly didn't want to capture you because, I have seen how much better the Li Kingdom is I would like to vow my loyalty to them," the man lied.

"I propose that if I let you free you will fight by my side in defeating the Kinomoto Kingdom but you need to give your powers to another," the told him again.

"Do you think me that naïve?" Xiaolang asked the man.

"I know you are evil, and I know that Sakura would never do this.  So in other words, I refuse your preposition," Xiaolang said proudly while glaring at his capturer.

The man slapped his cross the face and shouted," You will regret your choice, Little Wolf."

He storm out leaving a confused Xiaolang.

He knew the people of his kingdom often called him Little Wolf but, he had never meet this man before in his life, why did he seem so familiar when he said his nickname.

Who was he?

Author Notes:  I know there really no romance in this chapter either and to tell you the true I think am a bad writer what do you think?  I know my grammar the worst.  But still I hope you show some compassion. 

I hope I do better in the next chapter.
