A Troublesome Child By: sakuraflowergal

"Mama! Papa!" Ying Yuan exclaimed excitedly as she ran towards her parents.

The family hugged tightly for a long time until Ying Yuan was aching all over.

"I missed you!" Ying Yuan cried.

"We were so worried about you!" Syaoran said at the same time.

Sakura didn't say anything. She was too happy that her daughter is finally back.

"Let's get inside. We have stories to share." Lord Li said, inviting everyone into the living room.

Once everyone has settled down on the sofas, they told each other about what happened when Ying Yuan was away.

"It was Great-Granddad who brought me away. He brought me to a palace in Guangdong. It was old and damaged but still comfortable to live in. He taught me how to control and use my magic. It was tough to train day and night but Great-Granddad told me that I must be ready to fight the dark magician. I tried very hard but I still couldn't do the difficult spells. I was upset about my slow progress but Great-Granddad assured me that I am doing very well. Now, I could control my magic and do simple spells." Ying Yuan briefly talked about what happened to her.

"Where is your Great-Granddad?" Syaoran asked.

"I don't know. Maybe still in Guangdong but he might have already left. He said he needed to go to Korea for some important matters." Ying Yuan replied.

"That was where we are heading." Eriol said.

"If Old Mr. Li is going there, we must also start on our journey." Kero thought aloud.

"Kero is right. We must go according to plan and the next step is to go Korea." Lord Li said.

They load the luggage into the limousines and travel to the airport. They were unable to take the family's plane to Korea as the trip was decided too suddenly and the plane did not have the time to prepare for the flight. Everyone was going to Korea except Yelen who volunteered to stay in Hong Kong and wait for any instructions.

"Take care of yourselves and defeat the Dark Magician. I'll be at the Mansion to receive any instructions." Yelen said before leaving.

The gang boarded the crowded plane and they took their seats in the first- class section.

"Remember, think before you speak." Sakura reminded Ying Yuan.

The plane rose into the air smoothly until a sudden jerk on the plane caused everyone to fall on their seats.

"What is going on?" Lord Li asked.

Just then, the intercom came on.

"Welcome to flight QN 196. Thank you for taking Whole World Airlines. This is your hijacker, Dark Magician, speaking."

Screams of fear and horror filled the plane as the passengers heard the word "hijacker". The gang quickly stood up from their seats and rushed towards the cockpit. There, standing at the cockpit facing the intercom system, was none other than the Dark Magician himself. Bodies of the pilots littered the cockpit. There were no signs of struggle as the Dark Magician has killed all the pilots with a simple death spell.

"Let the other passengers go! Your target is us, not them. Killing them will not do you any good!" Sakura said.

"Killing one and killing a hundred doesn't make a difference to me, young lady." Dark Magician's deep, low voice rang out.

Sakura didn't know what to say and remained silent. Ying Yuan took out her staff and tried to make a deal with the enemy.

"I'll go with you to the dark world if you let the passengers go. If not, I'll fight you with all my might and I guarantee you that my family and I will defeat you!"

"Ying Yuan!" Sakura and Syaoran cried worriedly.

"It's alright. Either way, I believe that we will win this battle at the very end." Ying Yuan said as she tried to assure her parents.

"You're right! This isn't a fight between you and the Dark Magician. It is a fight between Light and Dark, Good and Evil. We will all assist you because 'All with the heart of white shine looks forward to the day of victory that will clear out dark magic'" Lord Li said with confidence.

"So, what is your choice?" Ying Yuan prompted the Dark Magician.
