Few hours after the college..
Sakura was retuning home from Madison's house. It was getting late the sun was almost setting so she took a short alley through a dark path of Tomoeda.
She was walking alone humming a song to herself when she heard a voice.
There were six men.
"Helloooo there babe, what you're doing here?" one of them asked with a wicked look on his face.
She didn't answer, she started to walk her way again.
He blocked her path spreading his arms to the side.
"I thought I asked you something."
"Let me go" Sakura said with a stern look in her face.
"Tough young lady...eh?" another man came from the back and put his hand on her right shoulder.
She lowered her shoulder inorder to leave his hands.
"Stay here and play with us." Another came with an evil grin.
"Move out of my way." She screamed angrily.
"If you don't want to play we're sorry but we'ld, hehe" The second one said.
The fourth one threw it's cigar on the ground and stepped on it. He came and grabbed her chin and pulled her face towards him.
"Don't be angry miss, we just one a little fun." He grinned wickedly.
Sakura didn't know what to do, she can blow them up with few chants but would it be right to reveal herself, for the sake of her life, ofcourse...
"Leave her alone" her thoughts were interrupted by a cold voice.
"Li?" she thought.
"Kid get lost from here." the guy who was holding commanded.
Li remained silent and unmoving.
"I'm tellng to move away" the guy said.
Li started to walk towards them. Two of them backed off.
"I said back off" the guy who was holding Sakura left her and lunged towards Li to punch him.
But before he could touch Li, he was unconscious. This made the others trembled in fear.
"What the.." the second one who was once holding Sakura's shoulder couldn't even finish his words, all he saw was a foot coming towards him then a loud bone cracking noise and he blacked out.
Two down four to go.
One of them brought out a knife from behind him.
Sakura saw this and cried loud "Behind you"
Li didn't need to be warned, he was ready, a hard kick to the sneaky guy's face and he remained motionless.
Three more.
Now three of them attacked together with knives in each ones hand.
A right hand punch to the man on the right, a left one on the guy on the left, and a right kick to the back of his where a guy tried to slash him,
As all of them were distracted, Li jumped into the air and used two of his strongest kicks on the first two, the fell unconscious.
As he turned the one left alone trembled in fear and then wasting no time he took of running out of there.
Li turned now with a gentle, warm smile towards Sakura.
***************
"I could've protected myself" she said as she walked with him towards her house.
"Really?" Li smiled.
"Yeah, you just showed up when I was preparing myself." She protested not to be seemed as weak girl.
"Oh! What am I saying, I should thank you not to talk about these silly things." Sakura realised "Thanks"
"Don't mention it."
"No really, thanks a lot." Sakura said.
"So what were you doing there?" she asked as they were walking over a small bridge which was over a lake.
"Just passing, you?" he asked
"I was retuning home from my friend Madison's house."
"Oh what's you name?" he narrowed his eyes.
"Sakura."
He stopped walking, he was shocked, he stayed in the middle of the bridge.
Sakura noticed this and stopped as well.
"What is it?"
"Av-Avalon?" he asked
Sakura was frozen. Can it be him? After all these years?
"It IS you."
Li nodded.
Both of them placed their hands on the side of the bridge supporting themselves, looking into the lake.
"What brings you here?" Sakura asked.
"I just wished to be back here." he lied.
"Oh!" she was dissapointed with his answer.
"Oh yes I have your card."
"Keep it with you." Li answered
"What?" she asked sofly.
"Let it be with you, after all those years it along with the rest of my cards deserve to be with their rightful owner.....you" Li said.
Tears began to fall from heras well as his.
She hugged him tightly under the setting sun.
Then let him go.
"Li, I..."
"Sakura, I.."
Both of them said at the same time, and surprised by the coincidence both looked at their eyes, their very core soul.
Not knowing how much father each could say, they became silent.
Then again Li opened his mouth to speak
"I..." he was interrupted by an ear hurting voice..
"Li.. are you there" Mei Lin asked.
"What are you doing in here?" he asked a mature Meelin, inside who wasn't mature at all.
"Hmph! I've been looking all over for you." She then took her attention to the beautiful japanese woman "Who's this?"
"It's Sakura."
"It's her, your arch enemy from long time, and you're talking to her?" She raised her voice.
"Well yeah, but no she wasn't an enemy but a friend." he corrected.
"really?" she asked.
Sakura was slightly dissapointed on the inside. "I'm sure he was going to say it, why did she have to come, Ohh I'm feeling like killing her."
Mei Lin grabbed Li's hand and pulled him, lets go.
Li loosened her grip and said you go ahead I'm coming.
As she went a little far Li thought that the time was gone, and he couldn't tell Sakura now.
"Lets take to your house at first."
"It's Okay, I can go by myself, besides it's really near now." she said and then blamed at her for insisting to the offer "Oh well it's too late" she thought.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
"Well then.....that means goodbye for today see you tommorow."
"YeaH" she said cheerfully but Li didn't notice it.
He was blaming Mei Lin inside his head for interrupting his biggest moment.
They parted there hoping for this moment to come back.....

yippee another chapter just after the day of publishment. I was just so full of this thoughts this night.
Since I have insomnia I had to think all about it.
