"When are we to go for him?"
"Not yet" the man answered as the other bowed in front of him. "He's not ready yet, he's just chosen her. They are both still weak"
"Do you think, she was the right choice?"
"Yes, she's very strong and an alliance with her family would only bring us more luck and front extinction" he answered looking out the window of the old temple that rested on a mountain. "We will go to him at dawn, this should all be over by then"
"How so master?"
"He knows all he needs to know, he'll get rid of them tonight this will not continue to another day," he answered firmly.
Blossom lay in bed in agony, what she had had surely backfired on her. She didn't know if anyone else in the house felt it but she did. She knew now that Jamie would be a force to be reckoned with since he had join emotionally and physically with the Li girl who was also very powerful on her own. She would only have one shot and that was today, both of them would need time to bring their power back up after last night. "Dammit, I have to get her away from him" she growled getting out of bed. "I'll do it when they leave for the elders surely they'll noticed the change in their daughter"
Ally.
She walked into Ying Fa's room only to see her best friend in bed looking sick. She walked over to Ying Fa and touched her forehead but she felt fine though she couldn't feel her aura. "Why are you hiding your aura? Are you sick?" she asked worriedly moving close to her face when Ying Fa looked up at her. She gasped and shook her head trying to make sure she was seeing right. "Ah Ying Fa, why do you have silver in your eyes?"
"What do you mean? My eyes are green" Ying Fa groaned moving unto the sheets when she noticed that didn't have any clothing on. She could smell Jamie's scent on the sheet and knew that she was wrapped in one from his bed.
"No I mean, they have silver in them like Jamie's" Ally stated getting up from the bed. She grabbed a mirror and placed it in front of Ying Fa, she looked into and noticed that she did in deed have silver in her eyes but you could only see them if you really looked.
"You're right" she muttered tossing the mirror on the bed. "Ally could you please tell mother that I'm not feeling well?"
"Yeah, I'll tell her, tell me why you are hiding your aura?"
"But I'm not heading it" Ying Fa answered looking at her oddly.
"Yes you are" Ally replied
"No"
"Yes"
"No
"Yes" they looked at the door when Sakura showed up looking at Ying Fa worriedly.
"Ying Fa, why are you hiding your aura?" she asked hurrying over to her daughter with worry.
"But I'm not hiding my aura" she whined when the others showed up. She wondered if the entire household was going to pile into her room when she was under the sheets without any clothing on.
"Yes you are" Sakura said looking at her daughter. Something was definitely different about her, when Ying Fa looked at her she knew what it was.
"No I'm not" Ying Fa replied but gulped seeing the look on her mother's face. Sakura got up slowly and turned to look at everyone trying to keep her self from breaking down.
"Could all of you please excuse us, I need to speak with Ying Fa," she asked getting a weird look from everyone including Xiao Lang.
"Is something wrong?" he asked worriedly but Sakura shook her head and smiled. He nodded looking at Ying Fa before closing the door giving them privacy; Sakura called out the silent card so they couldn't hear a thing.
"Now Ying Fa, is there something you wish to tell me?" Sakura asked calmly sitting on her daughter's bed. Ying Fa looked down feeling guilty, she knew she was young but that didn't count when it came to what she felt. "I'm waiting"
"I'm sorry mother," she whispered awakening Sakura's worst fears. "It's not like anything or just a normal thing"
"I know that, remember your father and I have magic," Sakura snapped making Ying Fa wince. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to snap, it's just that you are so young. And how do you know that Jamie's the right one? Ying Fa you two are both so young"
"Mother please, you must understand more happened then it did to you and father" Ying Fa stated making Sakura look at her waiting for an explanation. "Well do you feel Jamie's aura?"
"No don't, what is with us not be able to feel the both of you?"
"I can feel him, he's showering. And then he's coming here and just like me he's drained of all his powers" Ying Fa explained shocking Sakura. Oh that was not a good thing, "We'll get them back by noon don't worry"
"How do you know?"
"He told me, we've joined, we relay on each other now. Blossom woke up his instincts, she wasn't supposed to do that, but she did and it made him stronger and me at the same time. He's chosen me as his mate for life"
"That does not make what you two did wrong" Sakura interrupted making her nod looking down. "Why on earth, why couldn't the both of you wait until you were eighteen or married? Marriage would have been a good thing" she stopped and looked at Ying Fa suddenly very afraid.
"What's the matter mother?" Ying Fa whispered worriedly seeing her mother pale considerably.
"Oh Ying Fa, what are we going to tell Xiao Lang, Syaoran and Touya?" she whispered making Ying Fa gulp. Okay so she hadn't thought about how her father and uncle would react this news. "Oh dear god they are going to kill him and he's got no power to protect him self"
"Mother you can't, if they kill him I die. Do you understand? I might not die right away but if he dies they kill me too" Ying Fa stated holding her mother's hand tightly. "You can't make them hurt him, cause it was my choice it wasn't Jamie. I was the one you can even ask Ally, this isn't the first time I tried. The first time he sent me away" she pleaded her eyes starting to water. She didn't know what she would do if her father and uncle hurt him. She would leave she would never forgive them. Heck she wouldn't leave, she was going to die cause she felt what he felt.
"Hush, I'm still upset with you but I wouldn't allow them to hurt him" Sakura spoke brushing Ying Fa's hair off her face. "When did you get a tattoo?" she asked in disbelief.
"What do you mean?" Ying Fa asked when Sakura got up grabbing the mirror to show her daughter. Ying Fa looked at the same tattoos Jamie had started to appear on her face as well. "It's from Jamie, I need to cover it" she started to get out of bed when she remembered that she was naked. "Um mother?"
"Yes Ying Fa, what is it I'm trying to think of a way to save you and Jamie until after noon. I won't have to tell them cause they'll noticed that changes and your aura" Sakura stated shaking her head at her daughter. She would have never believed that she and Jamie would go and do something like that.
"Could you please get my robe, I sort of left my things in Jamie's room" Ying Fa said feeling stupid. "I feel horrible, now everyone's going to look down at me. And father will hate Jamie and so will Syaoran. I don't want to ruin their friendship" Sakura gave Ying Fa her robe and hugged her.
"Don't worry everything will be okay, you two ah used um protection right?" Sakura asked but seeing the look on Ying Fa's face she knew they hadn't. "Oh for the love of god, can you possible make this get any more complicated?" she exclaimed like a deranged teenager who wanted to pull her hair out. Ying Fa took that time to put her robe on.
"Mother, everything will be okay" Ying Fa assured placing her hand on Sakura's shoulder.
"Will it Ying Fa, you are my oldest daughter what if you were to get pregnant?" she asked her daughter making her flush.
"I won't trust me, now you don't have to help me but you must help Jamie" Sakura looked at her daughter carefully reading here expression. She didn't want to lie to Xiao Lang but she couldn't tell him when Jamie was temporarily human.
"Fine"
"Thank you mother" Ying Fa whispered hugging Sakura tightly. Sakura hugged daughter back sighing; she hoped that Lin and Mei Hua wouldn't go through the same thing.
"Don't thank me yet, you know how hard it is for me to keep a lie from your father" Sakura replied making Ying Fa nod. She brushed Ying Fa's bangs out of her eyes before calling forth illusion. "Hello illusion" she smiled making the card smile back.
"Hello mistress, Ying Fa" Ying Fa nodded standing beside her mother.
"I want you to make everyone on this property feel Ying Fa and Jamie's aura like normal. Don't make anyone feel your presence, no one" Sakura stated making the card nod. She hoped she wouldn't have to keep his long. "Go shower and make sure to cover up the tattoos, will they go?"
"I haven't a clue. I'll ask Jamie" Ying Fa smiled running to the bathroom. Sakura sighed running her hand through her hair. She walked over to the door and opened it coming face to face with everyone.
"How's Ying Fa?" Xiao Lang asked right away making Sakura smile softly.
"She's fine, she's showering and will join everyone downstairs" Sakura answered truthfully making them nod.
"That's good, did she tell you why she was hiding her aura?" he asked but Sakura shook her head no when he placed his arm around her shoulders.
"It must be a phase, she seems to be doing that a lot lately" Sakura muttered as they all walked down the hall. Syaoran and Ally took a detour into his room; he closed his door and looked at her.
"What's the real reason?" he asked knowing that she must know something. Ally looked down turning towards his balcony. "Well?" he persisted walking towards her, "Al tell me" he wrapped his arms around her waist making her rest against him.
"I don't know all besides I can't tell you. If I did I would be betraying Ying Fa's trust. She'll tell you soon enough trust me" Ally answered and he could hear by her tone that she was not going to tell him.
"It's one thing having a stubborn sister but another having a stubborn girl friend" he muttered sighing. Ally laughed turning to face him, she moved close to him placing a soft kiss on his lips.
"It can't be that bad" she mused looking up at him with lazy eyes. Syaoran rested his forehead against hers and smiled gazing into her amazing amethysts.
"Don't hear me complaining" he replied taking her lips in another sweet lingering kiss making her wrap her arms around him.
"Hmmm, hey I'm going to shower. I'll meet you downstairs ay?" she whispered between kisses making Syaoran nod.
"Yeah I had better take one too, we'll still going out today right?" he asked making her shake in her still in his arms.
"Yeah definitely" she stepped back and gave him a quick kiss before retreating out of his room. He looked at the door when it closed before he started to take his shirt off; he knew that he would have to see his father before they could leave.
"What aren't you telling me Ying Fa?" he whispered heading to the bathroom.
Jamie.
He couldn't believe he and Ying Fa had done that last night. He didn't want her family to start disliking him, he didn't know what he would do if he couldn't be with her. And she would feel the same since as he had chosen her as his mate; she was his from now on. He would kill any men expect for those in her family, who went after her or acted too personal.
He looked at his hand and for the first time a long time he remembered what it felt like not to have his powers. He looked up when he almost bumped into Sakura, he looked in her eyes and instead of seeing resentment he saw worry, and maybe she didn't know.
"Oh don't think that, I know" Sakura confirmed making his shoulders slump. "I hope you know that what you have done is very serious"
"Hai know Sakura-san. And I'm ready to take full responsibility, it's all my fault not Ying Fa's" Jamie stated firmly making Sakura smile. Leave it up to them to try and protect the other.
"That's not necessary I know that you haven't a powers until around noon. My husband and the others won't notice the change but when they do he and my brother will want a full explanation. They ah can be very over protective" Jamie cringe hearing the tone Sakura used. He knew he was going to get it; it there was no doubt about it.
"I'll be prepared and I'll except anything but leaving Ying Fa. I won't ever leave her, we've made that decision"
"Very well, Xiao Lang and Eriol are waiting for you to go see the elders. They want to know what has change in you from that little episode last night. We've got half n' hour before noon" Sakura spoke making him nod before she turned heading the way she came with him following behind her.
"Can I see Ying Fa before I go?" he inquired politely, Sakura sighed shaking her head in consent.
"Fine but don't take long, and please keep out of my brother's path. He's still not over the kissing thing," she warned making him gulp nodding. The last thing he needed was to get trampled by Touya when he was without his powers. Sakura watched him go as she rubbed her temple. She looked at her hand and groaned seeing that she was picking up Yelen's habit. "I need a vacation" she whined walking towards the stairs.
Ying Fa.
She was sitting on the top stairs watching everyone move about the yard doing what needed to be done and so on. She couldn't wait to see Jamie, she knew he was coming closer to her and couldn't hold down her emotions. Even though last night was the most amazing night in her whole life she still couldn't believe it had happened and it was most amazing. "It's about time you came to see me" she smiled not turning around.
"Well I can see that you're still as bossy as ever" Jamie teased sitting beside her. Ying Fa looked at him, her face glowing with love and adoration, he was now her lover and mate.
"Humph that is how you greet me then I do not wish to be on your presence any longer" she stated in mock hurt making him grin wrapping his arm around her shoulders making her smile adoringly. "Is that all?" she inquired raising a brow making him nod.
"No my love" Jamie whispered moving closer to her. Ying Fa sighed dreamily feeling his lips on hers, just a simple touch had her body raging. "You are going to have to learn how to control what you feel cause it also affects me" that admission made her turn bright red.
"Don't tease me, I have to get used to this. I know my parents share something like this but I don't think its this intense and if it is then they don't show it" Ying Fa replied making him nod. She never dreamed that she would ever in her life feel the bond that her mother and father had. She had always believed that she would have married Ken, and with him she wouldn't have had a bond because he was only human.
"I love teasing you, I can't help my self" he replied giving her another kiss before he regrettably had to move back a little so he could see her face. "Tell me, how are you feeling?"
"Other then the fact that I feel like a human, I'm great. I feel better then I have ever felt in my entire life cause I can feel you," Ying Fa answered caressing his cheek making Jaime close his eyes momentarily. God, forbid but he wanted nothing more than her, he wanted her to be him forever and more. It was like she had placed a spell on him, like she had bewitched him and by god he loved it. He loved every minute of it. "How you are Jamie?" she asked worriedly making him smile wolfishly.
"Well can't really say, I never knew you were a freak," Jamie answered making Ying Fa gasp and slap him playfully from embarrassment.
"Oh all the things to say Chan Jamie" he laughed engulfing her in a his arms making her feel like she was on going to burst from all the emotions and sensations she was feeling.
"I love teasing the woman I love," he whispered when she buried her face in his neck inhaling his intoxicatingly manly scent. She could smell him like nothing else; she could point him out in a crowd of millions with her eyes closed by smelling him. And there was no doubt that he wouldn't be able to do the same thing.
"I love you too, more then life it self" she replied moving closer to him in the hug. They were so into the other that they didn't notice when Xiao Lang, Eriol, Tomoyo and Sakura walked up or were it due to the fact that both couldn't feel them.
"Well isn't this interesting" Tomoyo giggled zooming in on Ying Fa and Jamie making them jumps apart from shock. Xiao Lang and Eriol looked at them oddly wondering why they were shocked surely they could feel them.
"Fa-father, mother" Ying Fa gasped getting up with Jamie's help. Surprisingly he was still incredibly strong even though he was without powers at the moment. She wondered if her father or Eriol suspected anything else but from the look on his face it didn't seem so. "Good morning everyone"
"Good morning" Jamie bowed in respect making Eriol's grin widen and Xiao Lang's frown slightly deepen. He could feel that something was out of place but he didn't know what. Sakura sensing that her husband was getting suspicious racked her head for something.
"Um Jamie, it's time for you to go to the elders in order to figure out what's wrong" she hastily spoke making everyone look at her oddly. Sakura laughed sweat dropping, okay she sounded weird but it was better then allowing her husband to kill their daughter's future husband then making Ying Fa go through life with a broken heart. Inwardly she thanked Yukito and Kaho for bringing Touya and the younger children out site seeing, they had enough to worry about as it is.
"Yes right, Sakura-san" Jamie muttered feeling a little bit inferior at the moment. He could feel and tell that Ying Fa was also feeling the anxiety because she was holding unto his hand rather tightly.
"Well then we should get going" Xiao Lang stated making Jamie and Ying Fa nod. He looked at their hands that were still clasped together making both let go fast, Ying Fa smiled shakily making Xiao Lang look at her inquiringly.
" I guess I'll wait for your return" Ying Fa sighed breaking eye contact with her father. She was afraid that if she looked him in the eyes he might figure out what she was keeping from him.
"Hai," he replied before walking off with Eriol and Jamie following behind. Sakura's shoulders slumped and she gave Ying Fa a shaky smile before following.
"Go Ying Fa" Tomoyo cooed making Ying Fa blush crimson, laughing Tomoyo rushed to catch up with the others. She wondered if and she and Sakura were the same way, and then shook her head. They were definitely the same exact way as the children now; she hoped it wasn't a gene that would continue to pass on to each generation.
Ying Fa sighed and slumped against the railing, she looked down at the ground wondering how long she would be able to hold up this act. "Just a little longer" she whispered.
Just a little longer.
She turned and looked towards the sea only to see Blossom looking guilty disappear towards the set of benches that were placed under the large tree. "I wonder what she's up to" Ying Fa whispered following behind her. Little did she know that following Blossom would be one of the worst mistakes in her life?
Ally walked out of her bathroom having already showered and dressed. She smiled looked at her self in the mirror of the dresser, she couldn't get over the fact that she and Syaoran were actually finally together. This was the most amazing thing ever and the one she had wished her all her life. "I love him so much" she whispered to her self-putting on lip-gloss. Her hair was up in a ponytail, and she had on a skirt with a cute blue top.
Walking over to her bed she started to reach out for her camera and purse when something grabbed her legs. Screaming she fell on her back when it started to pull her back. The air was knocked out of her lungs when she collided with the floor almost rendering her unconscious. "Oh my god" she screamed making her aura flare. She couldn't think straight and her human part was taking control making her body fill with her fear and panic. "Syaoran! Let me go" she screamed trying to kick her self-free. She couldn't even bring her self to sit up because her head was spinning from the knock she got.
"Not a chance beauty" Adam laughed when the last of Ally's body was pulled through the portal.
Right when she disappeared the door flew open and Syaoran appeared. His heart stopped when he couldn't feel her, he rushed through the room thinking she was playing with him. "Ally! Dammit Ally?" he shouted when he saw her video camera on the floor beside her bed. He bent down and could feel her presence on the floor; he could also feel something evil as well. "No" he whispered springing to his feet. He got up and raced out of the room to find help.
Blossom.
She smiled looking into the woods knowing that her pray was just about to arrive; she could feel that the other one was already gone. But of course the other was not of any importance, getting this bitch and her mother was the most important. "Just a little longer" she whispered before turning around. She took a step when Ying Fa walked around the corner. "Spying?"
"Why would I be spying on you?" Ying Fa replied watching her closely. She didn't trust Blossom one bit; she didn't know how Jamie could have loved someone like her. "Well don't you think it's time that you left here?"
"Oh right, you think that because you have him I should leave right?" Blossom laughed shaking her head slowly. "You know Ying Fa, you are still very much a little girl. You have no idea what I've learned through out the centuries that I have had to endure living with Zaroff, he taught me a lot about the world" Ying Fa's breath caught in her through seeing the look in Blossom's eyes and hearing her little admission.
"Oh-g" Blossom laughed contemptuously her eyes turning dark with pent up anger for Jamie.
"God? Please you'll need more than that to help you" Blossom declared playing with her hair. Ying Fa's eyes widened seeing the person he appeared behind Blossom, she couldn't believe her eyes.
"Ken?" she whispered seeing his smiling face but his smile was no longer handsome it was evil.
"I've come for you my love" Ken said walking up to her as she backed up. Ying Fa turned to run but came to a halt when Ken appeared in front of her. She couldn't believe this he didn't have powers.
"What are you? You don't have powers. You had better let me go before my father and the others show up," Ying Fa yelled wondering where all the gardeners were.
"Right, remember that they can't feel you" Ken spat seeing the scared look that crossed Ying Fa's face. He smiled, never in his life had he ever seen her look scared and this was a switch. "Don't worry it'll be fine" and just a quickly as he saw the emotion of fear it went just a fast as Ying Fa got in a stance.
"I'm not going anywhere with you" Ying Fa replied tightly. She might be powerless but that didn't mean she couldn't fight. She saw Ken moved towards her and she jumped back avoiding his attack then attempting to kick him in the face. Smirking he stepped back and wiped the blood from his mouth, he should have known never to underestimate her.
Jamie.
"No games," Ken rushed towards her and disappeared making her unable to search for him all the while hearing Blossom's soft giggles.
Jamie ran faster hearing and feeling Ying Fa's fear the others following behind him including Kai the head elder. Eriol held unto to Tomoyo's hand not able to feel his daughter's aura but he and everyone could clearly feel Syaoran's distress. "Dam Ying Fa" Jamie shouted heading out in the yard when Syaoran appeared the door.
"Oh god" Sakura whispered seeing Ken step out of the trees with Ying Fa in his arms and Blossom behind him.
Jamie saw Ken smirk before he stepped back into a portal with Blossom. His powers exploded making the earth shake and he disappeared speeding towards the portal but he didn't make it. "No, NO!" he shouted feeling Ying Fa's presence slowly start to fade. "NO!" he shouted making the earth about him dig down everyone watched as a large hole appeared around him. They could feel his powers pushing against theirs with incredible force.
Sakura started to cry looking down, she felt Xiao Lang's arms wrapped around her and she turned in his arms. She knew it was her fault; she shouldn't have hid the fact that Ying Fa and Jamie had lost their powers. "Oh Ying Fa" Xiao Lang looked at Jamie and he could feel anger boil inside him. He didn't know how the hell they had gotten unto the property or where Ken had gotten powers from.
"Shh" he soothed blocking out Tomoyo's sobs as well. Syaoran's hands clenched standing beside the door. He turned and with great force he punched the stonewall making his hand go right through it. He felt nothing but great pain, that bastard Zaroff had taken his Ally. He was going to tear him apart until there was nothing left of him, nothing at all.
"I'm going to kill him" he hissed feeling his power rocket to a new level.

"When are we to go for him?"
"Not yet" the man answered as the other bowed in front of him. "He's not ready yet, he's just chosen her. They are both still weak"
"Do you think, she was the right choice?"
"Yes, she's very strong and an alliance with her family would only bring us more luck and front extinction" he answered looking out the window of the old temple that rested on a mountain. "We will go to him at dawn, this should all be over by then"
"How so master?"
"He knows all he needs to know, he'll get rid of them tonight this will not continue to another day," he answered firmly.
Blossom lay in bed in agony, what she had had surely backfired on her. She didn't know if anyone else in the house felt it but she did. She knew now that Jamie would be a force to be reckoned with since he had join emotionally and physically with the Li girl who was also very powerful on her own. She would only have one shot and that was today, both of them would need time to bring their power back up after last night. "Dammit, I have to get her away from him" she growled getting out of bed. "I'll do it when they leave for the elders surely they'll noticed the change in their daughter"
Ally.
She walked into Ying Fa's room only to see her best friend in bed looking sick. She walked over to Ying Fa and touched her forehead but she felt fine though she couldn't feel her aura. "Why are you hiding your aura? Are you sick?" she asked worriedly moving close to her face when Ying Fa looked up at her. She gasped and shook her head trying to make sure she was seeing right. "Ah Ying Fa, why do you have silver in your eyes?"
"What do you mean? My eyes are green" Ying Fa groaned moving unto the sheets when she noticed that didn't have any clothing on. She could smell Jamie's scent on the sheet and knew that she was wrapped in one from his bed.
"No I mean, they have silver in them like Jamie's" Ally stated getting up from the bed. She grabbed a mirror and placed it in front of Ying Fa, she looked into and noticed that she did in deed have silver in her eyes but you could only see them if you really looked.
"You're right" she muttered tossing the mirror on the bed. "Ally could you please tell mother that I'm not feeling well?"
"Yeah, I'll tell her, tell me why you are hiding your aura?"
"But I'm not heading it" Ying Fa answered looking at her oddly.
"Yes you are" Ally replied
"No"
"Yes"
"No
"Yes" they looked at the door when Sakura showed up looking at Ying Fa worriedly.
"Ying Fa, why are you hiding your aura?" she asked hurrying over to her daughter with worry.

"Could all of you please excuse us, I need to speak with Ying Fa," she asked getting a weird look from everyone including Xiao Lang.
"Is something wrong?" he asked worriedly but Sakura shook her head and smiled. He nodded looking at Ying Fa before closing the door giving them privacy; Sakura called out the silent card so they couldn't hear a thing.
"Now Ying Fa, is there something you wish to tell me?" Sakura asked calmly sitting on her daughter's bed. Ying Fa looked down feeling guilty, she knew she was young but that didn't count when it came to what she felt. "I'm waiting"
"I'm sorry mother," she whispered awakening Sakura's worst fears. "It's not like anything or just a normal thing"
"I know that, remember your father and I have magic," Sakura snapped making Ying Fa wince. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to snap, it's just that you are so young. And how do you know that Jamie's the right one? Ying Fa you two are both so young"

"No don't, what is with us not be able to feel the both of you?"
"I can feel him, he's showering. And then he's coming here and just like me he's drained of all his powers" Ying Fa explained shocking Sakura. Oh that was not a good thing, "We'll get them back by noon don't worry"
"How do you know?"
"He told me, we've joined, we relay on each other now. Blossom woke up his instincts, she wasn't supposed to do that, but she did and it made him stronger and me at the same time. He's chosen me as his mate for life"
"That does not make what you two did wrong" Sakura interrupted making her nod looking down. "Why on earth, why couldn't the both of you wait until you were eighteen or married? Marriage would have been a good thing" she stopped and looked at Ying Fa suddenly very afraid.
"What's the matter mother?" Ying Fa whispered worriedly seeing her mother pale considerably.
"Oh Ying Fa, what are we going to tell Xiao Lang, Syaoran and Touya?" she whispered making Ying Fa gulp. Okay so she hadn't thought about how her father and uncle would react this news. "Oh dear god they are going to kill him and he's got no power to protect him self"
"Mother you can't, if they kill him I die. Do you understand? I might not die right away but if he dies they kill me too" Ying Fa stated holding her mother's hand tightly. "You can't make them hurt him, cause it was my choice it wasn't Jamie. I was the one you can even ask Ally, this isn't the first time I tried. The first time he sent me away" she pleaded her eyes starting to water. She didn't know what she would do if her father and uncle hurt him. She would leave she would never forgive them. Heck she wouldn't leave, she was going to die cause she felt what he felt.
"Hush, I'm still upset with you but I wouldn't allow them to hurt him" Sakura spoke brushing Ying Fa's hair off her face. "When did you get a tattoo?" she asked in disbelief.
"What do you mean?" Ying Fa asked when Sakura got up grabbing the mirror to show her daughter. Ying Fa looked at the same tattoos Jamie had started to appear on her face as well. "It's from Jamie, I need to cover it" she started to get out of bed when she remembered that she was naked. "Um mother?"

I won't have to tell them cause they'll noticed that changes and your aura" Sakura stated shaking her head at her daughter. She would have never believed that she and Jamie would go and do something like that.
"Could you please get my robe, I sort of left my things in Jamie's room" Ying Fa said feeling stupid. "I feel horrible, now everyone's going to look down at me. And father will hate Jamie and so will Syaoran. I don't want to ruin their friendship" Sakura gave Ying Fa her robe and hugged her.
"Don't worry everything will be okay, you two ah used um protection right?" Sakura asked but seeing the look on Ying Fa's face she knew they hadn't. "Oh for the love of god, can you possible make this get any more complicated?" she exclaimed like a deranged teenager who wanted to pull her hair out. Ying Fa took that time to put her robe on.
"Mother, everything will be okay" Ying Fa assured placing her hand on Sakura's shoulder.
"Will it Ying Fa, you are my oldest daughter what if you were to get pregnant?" she asked her daughter making her flush.
"I won't trust me, now you don't have to help me but you must help Jamie" Sakura looked at her daughter carefully reading here expression. She didn't want to lie to Xiao Lang but she couldn't tell him when Jamie was temporarily human.
"Fine"
"Thank you mother" Ying Fa whispered hugging Sakura tightly. Sakura hugged daughter back sighing; she hoped that Lin and Mei Hua wouldn't go through the same thing.
"Don't thank me yet, you know how hard it is for me to keep a lie from your father" Sakura replied making Ying Fa nod. She brushed Ying Fa's bangs out of her eyes before calling forth illusion. "Hello illusion" she smiled making the card smile back.
"Hello mistress, Ying Fa" Ying Fa nodded standing beside her mother.
"I want you to make everyone on this property feel Ying Fa and Jamie's aura like normal. Don't make anyone feel your presence, no one" Sakura stated making the card nod. She hoped she wouldn't have to keep his long. "Go shower and make sure to cover up the tattoos, will they go?"
"I haven't a clue. I'll ask Jamie" Ying Fa smiled running to the bathroom. Sakura sighed running her hand through her hair. She walked over to the door and opened it coming face to face with everyone.
"How's Ying Fa?" Xiao Lang asked right away making Sakura smile softly.
"She's fine, she's showering and will join everyone downstairs" Sakura answered truthfully making them nod.
"That's good, did she tell you why she was hiding her aura?" he asked but Sakura shook her head no when he placed his arm around her shoulders.
"It must be a phase, she seems to be doing that a lot lately" Sakura muttered as they all walked down the hall. Syaoran and Ally took a detour into his room; he closed his door and looked at her.
"What's the real reason?" he asked knowing that she must know something. Ally looked down turning towards his balcony. "Well?" he persisted walking towards her, "Al tell me" he wrapped his arms around her waist making her rest against him.
"I don't know all besides I can't tell you. If I did I would be betraying Ying Fa's trust. She'll tell you soon enough trust me" Ally answered and he could hear by her tone that she was not going to tell him.
"It's one thing having a stubborn sister but another having a stubborn girl friend" he muttered sighing. Ally laughed turning to face him, she moved close to him placing a soft kiss on his lips.
"It can't be that bad" she mused looking up at him with lazy eyes. Syaoran rested his forehead against hers and smiled gazing into her amazing amethysts.
"Don't hear me complaining" he replied taking her lips in another sweet lingering kiss making her wrap her arms around him.
"Hmmm, hey I'm going to shower. I'll meet you downstairs ay?" she whispered between kisses making Syaoran nod.
"Yeah I had better take one too, we'll still going out today right?" he asked making her shake in her still in his arms.
"Yeah definitely" she stepped back and gave him a quick kiss before retreating out of his room. He looked at the door when it closed before he started to take his shirt off; he knew that he would have to see his father before they could leave.
"What aren't you telling me Ying Fa?" he whispered heading to the bathroom.
Jamie.
He couldn't believe he and Ying Fa had done that last night. He didn't want her family to start disliking him, he didn't know what he would do if he couldn't be with her. And she would feel the same since as he had chosen her as his mate; she was his from now on. He would kill any men expect for those in her family, who went after her or acted too personal.
He looked at his hand and for the first time a long time he remembered what it felt like not to have his powers. He looked up when he almost bumped into Sakura, he looked in her eyes and instead of seeing resentment he saw worry, and maybe she didn't know.
"Oh don't think that, I know" Sakura confirmed making his shoulders slump. "I hope you know that what you have done is very serious"
"Hai know Sakura-san. And I'm ready to take full responsibility, it's all my fault not Ying Fa's" Jamie stated firmly making Sakura smile. Leave it up to them to try and protect the other.
"That's not necessary I know that you haven't a powers until around noon. My husband and the others won't notice the change but when they do he and my brother will want a full explanation. They ah can be very over protective" Jamie cringe hearing the tone Sakura used. He knew he was going to get it; it there was no doubt about it.
"I'll be prepared and I'll except anything but leaving Ying Fa. I won't ever leave her, we've made that decision"
"Very well, Xiao Lang and Eriol are waiting for you to go see the elders. They want to know what has change in you from that little episode last night. We've got half n' hour before noon" Sakura spoke making him nod before she turned heading the way she came with him following behind her.
"Can I see Ying Fa before I go?" he inquired politely, Sakura sighed shaking her head in consent.
"Fine but don't take long, and please keep out of my brother's path. He's still not over the kissing thing," she warned making him gulp nodding. The last thing he needed was to get trampled by Touya when he was without his powers. Sakura watched him go as she rubbed her temple. She looked at her hand and groaned seeing that she was picking up Yelen's habit. "I need a vacation" she whined walking towards the stairs.
Ying Fa.
She was sitting on the top stairs watching everyone move about the yard doing what needed to be done and so on. She couldn't wait to see Jamie, she knew he was coming closer to her and couldn't hold down her emotions. Even though last night was the most amazing night in her whole life she still couldn't believe it had happened and it was most amazing. "It's about time you came to see me" she smiled not turning around.
"Well I can see that you're still as bossy as ever" Jamie teased sitting beside her. Ying Fa looked at him, her face glowing with love and adoration, he was now her lover and mate.
"Humph that is how you greet me then I do not wish to be on your presence any longer" she stated in mock hurt making him grin wrapping his arm around her shoulders making her smile adoringly. "Is that all?" she inquired raising a brow making him nod.
"No my love" Jamie whispered moving closer to her. Ying Fa sighed dreamily feeling his lips on hers, just a simple touch had her body raging. "You are going to have to learn how to control what you feel cause it also affects me" that admission made her turn bright red.
"Don't tease me, I have to get used to this. I know my parents share something like this but I don't think its this intense and if it is then they don't show it" Ying Fa replied making him nod. She never dreamed that she would ever in her life feel the bond that her mother and father had. She had always believed that she would have married Ken, and with him she wouldn't have had a bond because he was only human.
"I love teasing you, I can't help my self" he replied giving her another kiss before he regrettably had to move back a little so he could see her face. "Tell me, how are you feeling?"
"Other then the fact that I feel like a human, I'm great. I feel better then I have ever felt in my entire life cause I can feel you," Ying Fa answered caressing his cheek making Jaime close his eyes momentarily. God, forbid but he wanted nothing more than her, he wanted her to be him forever and more. It was like she had placed a spell on him, like she had bewitched him and by god he loved it. He loved every minute of it. "How you are Jamie?" she asked worriedly making him smile wolfishly.
"Well can't really say, I never knew you were a freak," Jamie answered making Ying Fa gasp and slap him playfully from embarrassment.
"Oh all the things to say Chan Jamie" he laughed engulfing her in a his arms making her feel like she was on going to burst from all the emotions and sensations she was feeling.
"I love teasing the woman I love," he whispered when she buried her face in his neck inhaling his intoxicatingly manly scent. She could smell him like nothing else; she could point him out in a crowd of millions with her eyes closed by smelling him. And there was no doubt that he wouldn't be able to do the same thing.
"I love you too, more then life it self" she replied moving closer to him in the hug. They were so into the other that they didn't notice when Xiao Lang, Eriol, Tomoyo and Sakura walked up or were it due to the fact that both couldn't feel them.
"Well isn't this interesting" Tomoyo giggled zooming in on Ying Fa and Jamie making them jumps apart from shock. Xiao Lang and Eriol looked at them oddly wondering why they were shocked surely they could feel them.
"Fa-father, mother" Ying Fa gasped getting up with Jamie's help. Surprisingly he was still incredibly strong even though he was without powers at the moment. She wondered if her father or Eriol suspected anything else but from the look on his face it didn't seem so. "Good morning everyone"
"Good morning" Jamie bowed in respect making Eriol's grin widen and Xiao Lang's frown slightly deepen. He could feel that something was out of place but he didn't know what. Sakura sensing that her husband was getting suspicious racked her head for something.
"Um Jamie, it's time for you to go to the elders in order to figure out what's wrong" she hastily spoke making everyone look at her oddly. Sakura laughed sweat dropping, okay she sounded weird but it was better then allowing her husband to kill their daughter's future husband then making Ying Fa go through life with a broken heart. Inwardly she thanked Yukito and Kaho for bringing Touya and the younger children out site seeing, they had enough to worry about as it is.
"Yes right, Sakura-san" Jamie muttered feeling a little bit inferior at the moment. He could feel and tell that Ying Fa was also feeling the anxiety because she was holding unto his hand rather tightly.
"Well then we should get going" Xiao Lang stated making Jamie and Ying Fa nod. He looked at their hands that were still clasped together making both let go fast, Ying Fa smiled shakily making Xiao Lang look at her inquiringly.
" I guess I'll wait for your return" Ying Fa sighed breaking eye contact with her father. She was afraid that if she looked him in the eyes he might figure out what she was keeping from him.
"Hai," he replied before walking off with Eriol and Jamie following behind. Sakura's shoulders slumped and she gave Ying Fa a shaky smile before following.
"Go Ying Fa" Tomoyo cooed making Ying Fa blush crimson, laughing Tomoyo rushed to catch up with the others. She wondered if and she and Sakura were the same way, and then shook her head. They were definitely the same exact way as the children now; she hoped it wasn't a gene that would continue to pass on to each generation.
Ying Fa sighed and slumped against the railing, she looked down at the ground wondering how long she would be able to hold up this act. "Just a little longer" she whispered.
Just a little longer.
She turned and looked towards the sea only to see Blossom looking guilty disappear towards the set of benches that were placed under the large tree. "I wonder what she's up to" Ying Fa whispered following behind her. Little did she know that following Blossom would be one of the worst mistakes in her life?
Ally walked out of her bathroom having already showered and dressed. She smiled looked at her self in the mirror of the dresser, she couldn't get over the fact that she and Syaoran were actually finally together. This was the most amazing thing ever and the one she had wished her all her life. "I love him so much" she whispered to her self-putting on lip-gloss. Her hair was up in a ponytail, and she had on a skirt with a cute blue top.
Walking over to her bed she started to reach out for her camera and purse when something grabbed her legs. Screaming she fell on her back when it started to pull her back. The air was knocked out of her lungs when she collided with the floor almost rendering her unconscious. "Oh my god" she screamed making her aura flare. She couldn't think straight and her human part was taking control making her body fill with her fear and panic. "Syaoran! Let me go" she screamed trying to kick her self-free. She couldn't even bring her self to sit up because her head was spinning from the knock she got.
"Not a chance beauty" Adam laughed when the last of Ally's body was pulled through the portal.
Right when she disappeared the door flew open and Syaoran appeared. His heart stopped when he couldn't feel her, he rushed through the room thinking she was playing with him. "Ally! Dammit Ally?" he shouted when he saw her video camera on the floor beside her bed. He bent down and could feel her presence on the floor; he could also feel something evil as well. "No" he whispered springing to his feet. He got up and raced out of the room to find help.
Blossom.
She smiled looking into the woods knowing that her pray was just about to arrive; she could feel that the other one was already gone. But of course the other was not of any importance, getting this bitch and her mother was the most important. "Just a little longer" she whispered before turning around. She took a step when Ying Fa walked around the corner. "Spying?"
"Why would I be spying on you?" Ying Fa replied watching her closely. She didn't trust Blossom one bit; she didn't know how Jamie could have loved someone like her. "Well don't you think it's time that you left here?"
"Oh right, you think that because you have him I should leave right?" Blossom laughed shaking her head slowly. "You know Ying Fa, you are still very much a little girl. You have no idea what I've learned through out the centuries that I have had to endure living with Zaroff, he taught me a lot about the world" Ying Fa's breath caught in her through seeing the look in Blossom's eyes and hearing her little admission.
"Oh-g" Blossom laughed contemptuously her eyes turning dark with pent up anger for Jamie.
"God? Please you'll need more than that to help you" Blossom declared playing with her hair. Ying Fa's eyes widened seeing the person he appeared behind Blossom, she couldn't believe her eyes.
"Ken?" she whispered seeing his smiling face but his smile was no longer handsome it was evil.
"I've come for you my love" Ken said walking up to her as she backed up. Ying Fa turned to run but came to a halt when Ken appeared in front of her. She couldn't believe this he didn't have powers.
"What are you? You don't have powers. You had better let me go before my father and the others show up," Ying Fa yelled wondering where all the gardeners were.
"Right, remember that they can't feel you" Ken spat seeing the scared look that crossed Ying Fa's face. He smiled, never in his life had he ever seen her look scared and this was a switch. "Don't worry it'll be fine" and just a quickly as he saw the emotion of fear it went just a fast as Ying Fa got in a stance.
"I'm not going anywhere with you" Ying Fa replied tightly. She might be powerless but that didn't mean she couldn't fight. She saw Ken moved towards her and she jumped back avoiding his attack then attempting to kick him in the face. Smirking he stepped back and wiped the blood from his mouth, he should have known never to underestimate her.
Jamie.
"No games," Ken rushed towards her and disappeared making her unable to search for him all the while hearing Blossom's soft giggles.
Jamie ran faster hearing and feeling Ying Fa's fear the others following behind him including Kai the head elder. Eriol held unto to Tomoyo's hand not able to feel his daughter's aura but he and everyone could clearly feel Syaoran's distress. "Dam Ying Fa" Jamie shouted heading out in the yard when Syaoran appeared the door.
"Oh god" Sakura whispered seeing Ken step out of the trees with Ying Fa in his arms and Blossom behind him.
Jamie saw Ken smirk before he stepped back into a portal with Blossom. His powers exploded making the earth shake and he disappeared speeding towards the portal but he didn't make it. "No, NO!" he shouted feeling Ying Fa's presence slowly start to fade. "NO!" he shouted making the earth about him dig down everyone watched as a large hole appeared around him. They could feel his powers pushing against theirs with incredible force.
Sakura started to cry looking down, she felt Xiao Lang's arms wrapped around her and she turned in his arms. She knew it was her fault; she shouldn't have hid the fact that Ying Fa and Jamie had lost their powers. "Oh Ying Fa" Xiao Lang looked at Jamie and he could feel anger boil inside him. He didn't know how the hell they had gotten unto the property or where Ken had gotten powers from.
"Shh" he soothed blocking out Tomoyo's sobs as well. Syaoran's hands clenched standing beside the door. He turned and with great force he punched the stonewall making his hand go right through it. He felt nothing but great pain, that bastard Zaroff had taken his Ally. He was going to tear him apart until there was nothing left of him, nothing at all.
"I'm going to kill him" he hissed feeling his power rocket to a new level.
