Last time on Meilin's Story Part Two:

They finished their routine and bowed. The other couple joined them on met and the judges all huttled together. It took them a little less than five minutes to decide on a victor, and who would go home with nothing. They all resumed their chairs and looked at each participant.

"The judges have come to a decision, here before us we saw to very different routines. Two couples from two different martial arts schools. Genesis Jerkin, from Half Pine School of Martial Arts, her partner David Hogan from Half Pine School of Martial Arts. And then we have Meilin Rae, last year's Martial Arts Champion, with her new partner Rex Mizoki. With no further a due.this year Martial Arts Champions are."

Meilin's Story Part Three

"Meilin Rae, defending champion and her partner Rex Mizoki." The judge said, reading off the ballet. Meilin squealed and jumped for joy. She had one it again. Rex couldn't believe it himself, but he quickly turned and hugged Meilin. Rex and Meilin's parents rushed to them and hugged them both. They were both showered with hugs from people they didn't even know. Meilin could wait to tell Li. The mat was cleared, except for the judges, Meilin's team and the other couple. The four shook hands, congratulating on their hard work.

"Meilin Rae, Martial Arts Champion, year two, green belt." One judge held.

"Rex Mizoki, Martial Arts Champion, year one, green belt." Another proclaimed. Meilin turned and hugged Rex again, just like she did Li the year they won. Meilin and Rex received their trophies and that was the end of the 31st annual Martial Arts Tournament. Meilin hugged her trophy; she had the perfect place for it. Right next to the one that had her and Li's name inscribed on it. Now she had two trophies with her name on them. She couldn't help smiles.

"Congratulations Meilin, we are so proud of you." Her mother said from the passenger seat of their car.

"Indeed we are." Her father said while driving.

"Thanks mom and dad." Meilin said from the back, hugging her trophy like someone would steal it from her. They reached home and Meilin darted to her room. She placed the new one right next to her other one and smiled. She jumped on her bed and crawled across to the other side, about to pick up the phone receiver. Just before Meilin could pick it up, it rang. She jumped a little and was surprised; that's never happened before. She picked up the receiver.

"Hello? This is Meilin." She said sweetly into the phone.

"Meilin? It's Li." came the voice on the other end. What perfect timing! She was just about to call him and tell him the great news.

"Li! I can't believe you called I was just about to do the same! I have so much to tell you!" Meilin shouted into the phone, sitting up on her bed.

"Yea, we need to talk abo..." All Li could get out before Meilin cut him off.

"Today was the Martial Arts Tournament, you know the one we won last year? Well Rex and Me won it! Can you believe it? Two years in a row for me! Isn't that exciting?" Meilin said, latterly jumping for joy.

"Oh wow, that great Meilin, ugh.infact that is what I called to ask about." Li said. Meilin just sounded way to happy for him to tell her about Sakura.

"Oh I wish you could have been here! It was amazing! Oh and I have the best news of all! I'm coming back to Reedington sometime in the next week!" Meilin gasped for joy. Li bit his bottom lip and decided whether or not to tell her.

"That's great Meilin, but I got to go, I'm sensing a Clow Card around and I have to call Sakura." Then he hung up, without even saying goodbye to Meilin.

"Li wait!" She said quickly. It was to late, he had already hung up. She raised an eyebrow and hung up the phone. She headed down the hallway to the stairs for dinner. The tournament had started at noon, and it was almost 5 o'clock by now. Dinner was almost ready. Li couldn't believe himself. He promised Sakura he would tell Meilin. She was just too happy; he couldn't rain on her parade. She had won the tournament again, that proved she was as good at martial arts as him. He glanced at his watch and headed down the hallway into his room and closed the door behind him.

Sakura couldn't sit still. Madison and her were trying to finish up their math homework. Sakura kept looking at the clock, then the phone. Madison started to become irritated.

"Sakura what is wrong?" Madison asked in a irritated voice.

"Li said he'd call Meilin tonight and tell her everything and I'm waiting for him call with the news." Sakura said, turning her attention back to her homework.

"Well just take your mind off it and do your homework or we'll never get this done, we still have spelling worksheets to do and its almost 5:30." Madison said, finishing up the last few problems. Sakura looked at Madison's finished page and hurried to finish hers. Madison started on her spelling as Sakura finished up her math. Sakura dug through her bag for about 3 minutes until she pulled out a crinkly, unstarted spelling worksheet. Sakura grabbed the dictionary form Madison and looked up every word on the list.

"You have to look up ever word Sakura?" Madison asked, rising an eyebrow. Sakura seemed to ignore her and finished looking them up. Madison was halfway done with the front side when Sakura was done looking up the words. Sakura hurried to catch up, asking Madison for the definition of words constantly. They finished their homework together. Sakura packed up her book bag, as the telephone rang. She leaped for the telephone on the end table of the living room couch.

"Hello?!?!" She said into the phone waiting for a reply.

"Sakura?" Came the young boy's voice she was expecting.

"Li! Did you called her? What happened? What did she say? What did you say?" Sakura asked in a frantic race of questions.

"I couldn't tell her.she won the Annual Martial Arts Tournament this year. She was just happy, I'll tell her when she gets back. She said her father and her are returning sometime next week." Li said shamefully into the phone.

"Ok.so you're waiting until she comes back?" Sakura asked in low, rather disappointed voice.

"Yea, so I'll talk to you later." Li said and hung up the phone. Sakura did the same. Li never left time for her to say goodbye. She was going to gain a person's love in her life, or lose a boyfriend to another girl. Madison had finished gathering her things and stood by the door.

"I gotta get home Sakura, I'll call you later and we can talk about it, ok?" Madison said, trying to cheer her friend up. Sakura nodded and walked over to the door. She watched Madison turn and wave to her from down the street; she waved back, a slight smile crossing her face. Three weeks had gone by in a flash for Meilin. There she stood in the airport, waiting for their plane to come in. She was so excited to go back, she could finally see Li and her friends again. The announcement that the plane leaving for Reedington has now arrived and is boarding.

"Ready to go sweetheart?" Her father said to Meilin. She nodded; she couldn't have been more ready in her life. Her mother took her hand and they headed for the plane terminal. They each gave the flight attendant their ticket and started down the plan terminal. When they boarded the plane, it had three seats in a row. Meilin's mother got the window seat, Meilin got the middle, and her father sat in the isle seat.

Meilin smiled as the plane took off. In less and three hours, she'd be back in Reedington. Li would be waiting for her and they could be Card Captors again. She closed her eyes and leaned her head against the back of the seat. She dozed off into the wee hours of the morning, sweet dream's filling her head. Meilin's plane landed safely in the Reedington Airport three hours later. It was around noon when they stepped out of the plane terminal. She rushed to get her things and waited for her parents. They drove to their home, left behind by their trip back to Hong Kong. Meilin settled back into her room.

The first thing she wanted to do was call Li to tell him she was back. Btu she decided she would surprise him in person! Little did she know Sakura and Li were having the time of their life, roller bladeing in the park, when she rushed out the door.
