"Syaoran, what have you done?" Sakura asked looking at the Li sisters and Ying Fa floating around the room with pudding and all kind of things.

"Get us down" Fanfren exclaimed holding her skirt.

"Are you kidding this is soo much some" Fiemie said giggling as she swam through the air.

"I'm sorry mother I didn't mean to I just wanted the pudding" Syaoran answered looking down he was the only one not floating.

"Daddy." Ying Fa said reaching for Syaoran's hand

"Xiao Lang no" Sakura said holding onto to him but they both got pulled into it.

"Good heavens" Yelen gasped drawing her hands to her mouth, standing at the door. San was still trying to get over what she had just been told.

"I'm sorry but Syaoran can't control his powers that well" Sakura apologized upside down to Yelen.

"Pudding" kero exclaimed diving into the kitchen. People outside didn't know what to make of it, Master Li, his sisters, a little girl, a women and a tiny lion with wings who was currently eating the floating pudding was floating the kitchen.

"Syaoran concentrated on lowering us," Sakura said to her son floating above his head.

"I'm trying mother," Syaoran said thinking hard but nothing was happening.

"Try drawing all your power in for this one purpose and imagine what you want to accomplish" Xiao Lang said reaching for Ying Fa.

"Okay." Syaoran said concentrating, slowly everyone begin to lower.

"Good boy." Sakura whispered proudly. Everyone was quite as not to break his concentration but unfortunately Xiefia begin to sniffle everyone prayed she wouldn't sneeze but she did.

"Aaaaahhh" everyone screamed falling to the ground when his concentration was broken. Xiao Lang fell on his back with Ying Fa on his chest and Sakura the others fell on their butt all covered with pudding but only person in the air was kero crying because the pudding was on the floor.

"Why? Why do I have to be punished oh Supreme Being" Kero cried looking up at the heavens.

"Is everyone all right?" Yelen asked worried when everyone got off the floor, they all nodded.

"We soo have to do that again" Fiemie exclaimed getting looks from everything. "What that was fun" she added giggling.

"I'm sorry" Syaoran said holding his head down.

"No you all most had it" Sakura assured smiling.

"Yeah. I'll help you on controlling your powers starting tomorrow" Xiao Lang said getting up with Ying Fa.

"Really?" Syaoran asked smiling.

"Really but now, you we all need to shower" Xiao Lang answered.

"Who are the kids?" San yelled angrily. "And why did SHE call YOU father" she added.

"Like we said before this is Ying Fa and Syaoran my strong and powerful HEIR" Xiao Lang answered in a monotone voice; san was speechless that she just turned and left steaming. The maids came in and shocked was written all their face.

"Come you two time for bath" Sakura said taking Syaoran's hand.

"Come we use the bubble card mommy?" Ying Fa asked.

"Of course" Sakura answered.

"Wei brought your stuff to the west wing" Yelen said to Sakura who nodded yes.

"NO have Wei mover their stuff to the east wing to the room right next to mine" Xiao Lang said objecting.

"Certainly" Yelen said smiling.

"Come Sakura" Xiao Lang said leading the way, leaving the maids suffering from shock that they had actually seen Syaoran being nice. Sakura followed him upstairs carrying Syaoran while he carried Ying Fa. She wondered when the hallway would end and thanked god when she saw the end, Xiao Lang opened a door next to the one at the end.

"This room is the size of all our rooms put together" Syaoran said when Sakura put him down. "You can see the whole property," he added looking out the large window" when Wei brought in their bags.

"Thank you" Sakura said smiling.

"Hai Misses" Wei said before leaving. Sakura went into bathroom and started a bath using the bubble card to make lots of bubbles.

"Come on you two in the tub" Sakura said coming out of the bathroom.

"Hai" they said running into the bathroom.

"Well I guess I'll be going to um shower" Xiao Lang said stumbling over his words.

"Yeah, if you want you can come for them when you're finished so I can shower" Sakura said smiling.

"Yeah." he smiling said before walking to the door. Sakura stood looking at the door before going into the bathroom. Sakura bathed them and dressed them in matching outfits, Ying Fa and Syaoran had on jeans suspenders and white shirts. She was brushing Ying Fa's curly tresses when there was a knock on the door.

"Come in" Sakura said tying Ying Fa's white ribbon. Xiao Lang slowly opened the door wearing Khakis and a forest green shirt.

"Ready?" he asked looking at them.

"Yeah let me just brush his hair" Sakura said running the brush through it bit it didn't matter it still went back messy. "So much for that"

"No worries, it's a trademark" Xiao Lang said running his hand through his making Sakura smile. "Thank god there are a girl and boy I don't know how we would be able to tell them apart if they weren't"

"Yeah I'm glad too" Sakura said

"Up.UP" Ying Fa said raising her hands, Syaoran gladly picked her up.

"Come on let Sakura get ready" Xiao Lang said taking Syaoran's hand.

"I'll be down soon," Sakura said to them before they closed the door. She sighed going into the bathroom, how were they going to work out the visiting when this was all over?



Syaoran and the kids downstairs in the living room trying to find something to do, they had gone for a walk but then returned the kids not liking all the looks they got from everyone.

"I'm sorry you two but we have absolutely no games in this house" Xiao Lang said sighed sitting down on the floor. Ying Fa came over and sat on his lap cuddling up to him, she loved how her parents smelled. "But don't worry we'll fix that tomorrow" he added.

"That's a weird pendent, look it's just like mine" Syaoran said looking at the two black balls then showing his.

"Do you know how to use your sword?" Xiao Lang said looking at his son, he had Sakura's innocent looking eyes but if you looked close enough you would see mischief and curiosity.

"No uncle Eriol said I would learn though, he only showed me a few moves" Syaoran answered.

"You will, I'll teach you and your sister how to fight. When I was your age I started my training" Xiao Lang stated.

"Can we go out tomorrow, just Syaoran, you, mommy and me" Ying Fa asked looking up at her father. The man she had just met today and not in her dreams, the one who she felt attached to and from the looks of it Syaoran was feeling the same way too even though he didn't want to show it.

"What do you want to do?" Xiao Lang asked

"Well we could go to the beach, we've never been to the beach" Syaoran said leaning against Xiao Lang's shoulder.

"And then to a park or somewhere" Ying Fa said giggling.

"If it's ok with Sakura" Xiao Lang answered tickling her in the tummy making her squirm before breaking out fits of giggles. When Yelen walked in she stood at the door and watched her cold hearted son play with his children, her son had kids for the last four years and didn't know bout it, all that they needed now was to get the card mistress and him together and everything would be perfect.

"Ahem" she said, Ying Fa was on the ground giggling, Xiao Lang over her tickling her and Syaoran on his back stopped and looked at her all smiling sweetly.

"Grand mama" Ying Fa said giggling, her English accent coming out.

"Yes my child" Yelen said smiling, that was the first time she had been called grand mama and she liked it, grand ma was too common.

"Mother." Xiao Lang said looking up at his mother.

"The test came back, you are definitely the father" Yelen answered. "We have pure bloodlines, the question is what are you going to do about it," she added when Sakura walked into the room.

"Their are mine" Xiao Lang said smiling.

"Nani?" Sakura asked perplexed sitting down.

"They test came back" Yelen said helping him out.

"Of course they are his, I mean he's." Sakura said stopping herself, she blushed with embarrassment.

"Tell me Sakura is there someone special back in England?" Yelen asked when Xiao Lang and the kids resumed playing.

"No, I've never really had one, children are enough for me" Sakura answered.

"I see" Yelen said when Wei walked in.

"Dinner is served," he said before leaving. Sakura and Yelen walked out of the room followed by Xiao Lang who had the two kids under his arms. Wei had gotten two boosters for them; luckily it was only the family having dinner meaning the Li sisters, the twins, Yelen, San, Ken, Nakuru and kero the bottom less pit.

"So Sakura what do you do for a living?" Xiefia asked breaking the ire silence Sakura who was helping Ying Fa looked up and smiled.

"I'm the top model for Tomoyo's line of clothing and the children too when they are needed. Once in a while I do run way shows and other stuff" Sakura answered smiling missing the haughty look San shot her.

"Surely you have a fiancé or husband after all these years" San stated smiling. "It's good to be married and have a husband and family" Sakura caught the double meaning of her words but did show the pain instead she hid it behind a smile.

"Nope no husband or boyfriend most men don't like having a powerful girlfriend much less powerful step children" Sakura answered brightly. "In fact I don't exist to them" she added giggling.

"How's that?" Yelen asked smiling.

"Well they don't believe in sorceress or magic I couldn't possibly be happy with someone like that. And the kids would be miserably and poor kero he would have to be a stuffed animal all day" Sakura answered making them laugh.

"I don't see anything wrong with that, he is a stuffed animal" Xiao Lang stated getting a glare from kero

"But a cute one" Fiemie added winking at kero.

"Is something wrong with him?" Syaoran asked looking at Ken who was staring at he and Ying Fa.

"No he's just shy" Fanfren answered. "He doesn't talk much"

"Is he one of our cousin?" Ying Fa asked smiling.

"NO he's your fathers son" San snapped looking at Ying Fa with hateful eyes earning her a glare from Syaoran and Xiao Lang.

"Really how come he doesn't look like us?" Syaoran asked folding his arms.

"He looks like his mother" Sakura answered not wanting it to go any further.

"You are?" Ying Fa asked gaily. "Do you have powers like us too? The only friend we have who has powers is Ally she's my best friend. What can you do?" she added standing up in her seat.

"He doesn't have a aura like we do" Syaoran stated, Ying Fa looked at Ken and didn't feel anything which puzzled her, she could feel that her grandmamma and aunts but not the mean woman and the boy.

"How come?" Ying Fa asked looking at Xiao Lang, he knew why but before he could Sakura said.

"Enough talk about powers finish up before your dinner gets cold or Kero gets to it" the kids nodded not taking the conversation further.



"Night daddy" Ying Fa said yawning, she and Syaoran were all tucked in bed.

"Night Ying Fa" Xiao Lang whispered. "Hey night to you too" he added looking at Syaoran.

"Night father, I can't wait for tomorrow" Syaoran said smiling.

"Nor can I" Xiao Lang said.

"Night sweetie" Sakura said giving Ying Fa a kiss in the fore head, then Syaoran.

"Night mom" both said when Xiao Lang turned out the light leaving the night light on. Sakura had used the create card to make a door leading to Syaoran's room just in case. San's room was just beside hers, she and Ken slept in the same room. She wondered why she and Syaoran didn't sleep in the same room but left it alone.

"She won't be able to get near this house without being seen" Syaoran assured both were standing in the hall.

"I sure hope so, that's why I have kero sleeping there, I don't know what I would do if anything happened to them, there are my life" Sakura stated looking into the room one last time.

"I won't let anything happen to them, and anyone who tries to will pay. It's late we should get some sleep" Syaoran said smiling, Sakura nodded and both went their separate ways, thinking about the other.





"I don't care what you do, I will not make those brats ruin my dreams. If I can't be his wife no one can and he will definitely not have a heir" San yelled to her father.

"San if you do anything to the children, you will have the entire Li clan against you. All the elders are thrilled that they have a strong heir and his sister as strong as him. Do not cross Li or the card mistress plus play it smart it doesn't seem that the card mistress has affection for him" her father assured.

"You had better be right" San growled.



Next morning.

"Have you found out anything?" Xiao Lang asked the elders with his mother and Sakura at his side.

"Yes as known Celesta is incredibly strong, she will not stop until she gets what she wants. We have yet to find away to make her soul rest, don't worry we'll find away the children area very important to us. They are vital to the clans future and we will not let any harm come to them especially the boy for he is the next Li clan leader" one elder stated. They weren't happy with the answer they got but still left, Sakura was furious they didn't know how to stop her and the longer it took the longer her children were in danger.

"Don't worry nothing will happen to them, I won't allow it" Xiao Lang stated feeling her distress.

"Even after all these years you can still feel my emotions. I just can't help but worry, I don't want to be negative but they are all I have" Sakura stated 'all I have of you' she added.

"Have I ever broken a promise?" Xiao Lang asked looking into her eyes.

"No you haven't" Sakura answered when they reached the front of the house. "Where is San isn't she and Ken coming with us?"

"No she isn't, they had other plans" Xiefia answered smiling sweetly.

"You have fun. Are you sure you don't want body guards?" Yelen asked knowing how the people of Hong Kong would act and she didn't want them getting trampled.

"No mother it will be fine" Xiao Lang assured when the kids came running up, Ying Fa was wearing a sailor outfit and Syaoran was wearing khaki pants and a green shirt like his father. "Did Wei get the car seats?"

"Yeah he did" Yelen answered when a white escalade pulled up. "You all have fun now" she added giving Ying Fa a hug 'such a sweet child'

"We will grand mother, dad's taking us to the beach" Syaoran answered. Sakura put Ying Fa in while Xiao Lang buckled Syaoran in. They got in the car and pulled off for their long ride into Hong Kong.

"Do you think Little brother will tell Sakura?" Xiefia asked her mother who was watching the car.

"I didn't tell him, I don't want this day to be ruined maybe he won't have to tell her" Yelen answered.

"Your right if she knew that the elders won't allow the kids to leave ever, would ruin everything" Xiefia said sighing.





"Mommy look" Ying Fa said pointing to the water excitedly, Sakura had changed them into swimsuits and life vests (you know the ones that they made for kids to teach them how to swim, the really nice ones).

"Hai it's beautiful" Sakura answered finish putting sun block on Syaoran.

"Come mum lets go" Syaoran said taking Sakura's hand, she got up and flowed them to the water. Sakura was a nervous wreck when it can to having her kids in water but she lightened up seeing them having so much fun. Xiao Lang placed Ying Fa on his back and swam around with her. They played in the water for awhile then went to build sand castles, Sakura was glad that this was on of the hotels the Li's owned because they were able to shower their before heading to the mall. Syaoran had after all promised them toys and he was going to keep his word. They headed straight for the toy department when they arrived at the mall and of course they got strange looks from people but nothing serious.

"We don't have any bored games at the house so pick out some good ones" Xiao Lang said to Sakura and the kids, Sakura looked at all the baskets behind them then looked back at him and raised a brow.

"What? I'm catching for the four birthdays and Christmas that I missed" Xiao Lang said shrugging.

"You're going to spoil them," Sakura stated.

"Your no fun here take this, it's for you" Syaoran said handing her a stuffed Wolf.

"Oh how cute, I haven't gotten a stuffed animal in soo long" Sakura exclaimed hugging it making him smile.

"Now lighten up and help me pick out some games," Xiao Lang said smiling, he felt like they were a true family and he loved it. He only wished that he didn't have to dream and it were real but at least they are here with him. Sakura nodded smiling and helped him to pick out games, they were engrossed in each other that they didn't notice Ying Fa making the dolls walk around.

"Mommy, daddy look" Ying Fa yelled.

"What is it?" Sakura asked when they looked over at her, Sakura dropped the game she had in her hand and rushed over to her. Xiao Lang looked around to make sure no one saw before heading over to them. "Didn't I tell you not to use you powers in public" Sakura said grabbing the dolls.

"I'm sorry." Ying Fa said holding her head down, she didn't like making her mother mad.

"Don't worry you can show us when we got back" Xiao Lang said handing her the two cabbage patch dolls (when I was younger I loved those). Ying Fa looked up to him and nodded smiling as he picked her up in his arms. He had gotten store clerks to help them with the baskets, it was when they were cashing that the manager noticed who he was and called the papers.

"I hope that you enjoyed our store Mister Li," the manager said walking up to them when they were finished. He looked at Sakura and wondered who she was after all he knew that she wasn't his wife but she also looked familiar. He figured that she was probably one of his cousins with her kids.

"You have a lovely store, we found everything we were looking for" Sakura stated smiling when the twins came running up.

"Daddy." Ying Fa yelled running up to him with her doll, Syaoran was running behind her with a mask on. The man was speechless seeing Xiao Lang pick the girl up; he had to admit that she looked like him.

"Syaoran stop scaring your sister" Sakura said picking him up in her arms.

"Wait they are." the man said speechless when Syaoran took off is mask, everyone in the store was looking at them. He was sure that Xiao Lang had only one kid and he had blonde hair, heck if he and all of Hong Kong knew but here were these two twins who looked like him calling him 'dad'.

"Twins? Yeah they are" Sakura said helping him out; the photographers were now showing up and started to take pictures scaring the kids.

"Closed the store doors" the manger yelled, the doors were automatically locked.

"Mom make them stop" Syaoran whined hiding his face in her neck. Xiao Lang was all ready on the phone calling his bodyguards, which he was sure weren't too far away.

"Just turn your backs to them," Xiao Lang stated turning his back to them but of course the people in the store had all ready heard enough. Ying Fa and Syaoran ran round the store ignoring the photographers who were happily taking as much as they could of the twins. The crowd started to part when his guards arrived, the manger went to the door and let them in. It was more then four of them, which means that his mother knew he would need them. Two of the store clerks went first with their bags. It was seven guards in total but one went to bring the car in front, they all surrounded them as they made their way to the front but the press still asked questions and took pictures. They got in the car which was in the middle of two expeditions, Sakura looked at the hungry crowd of photographers as the car drove off, along the way the kids fell asleep and Sakura not long after. Xiao Lang glances at them now and then wishing that they would stay with him forever as he drove home in the rain.

"Try not to wake them, they've had a long day" Xiao Lang said to Wei and Nakuru took slowly took the kids out of their car seats while the other helpers got the bags. Sakura was still asleep so he gently picked her up, she sighed in contentment in his arms as he carried her up the stairs and to the room she was staying in.

"Hmmm.Xiao Lang" Sakura mumbled making him blush as he laid her on the bed. When he was about to leave he saw something under the covers move and it was pretty long. Sakura giggled feeling something smooth rub against her leg. "That tickles" she mumbled waking up.

"What tickles?" Xiao Lang asked looking at her.

"Syaoran if your over there, then.then what's rubbing up against me?" Sakura said fearfully feeling it make it's way up her leg. "Syaoran?"

"Don't moved," he said, he drew his hand when it was at a very personal area and blushed. "Um."

"Yeah god it's not like you have touched it before just get it off" Sakura answered closing her eyes not wanting to see what it was. Xiao Lang quickly grabs the head of what ever it was and pulled it off Sakura who stumbled out of the bed.

"It's a snake" Syaoran said wrapping it up in the sheets, they looked at each other and rushed to the kid's room. They burst through the door and see that Syaoran was still asleep but Ying Fa seemed as if she was hyperventilating. They saw the snake fall of the bed right where she was.

"Oh god no" Sakura screamed running over to the bed followed by Syaoran. "It bit her, it bit her.

Authors note: so what did ya'll think? I hope ya'll liked I hate that San!!! I hope she leaves soon but that's all up to me.
