The Obstacles Of Love
By : xoxo*wo-ai-ni*oxox ^-~
Recap [[ what happened last chapter quick summary ]]:
Sakura*s 'one and only love', Hiryuu, has left to go battle against the Hiragizawa Kingdom. Five years have passed and she still hasn*t heard from him. She wakes up one morning and goes to hear the awaited announcment of the king. The king wants her to get married to Syaoran Li…
From last chapter:
"Errmm.. Oh yes. My daughter Sakura Kinomoto of the Kinomoto Kingdom will be arranged to meet Syaoran Li of the Li Kingdom to see if there could be a future engagement!" everyone cheered!!! Except for two people… Sakura and her older brother Touya.
"whhhaaaaa????? WHHHHHAAA??????" she screamed. The whole palace went quiet. "YOOOU WANNT ME TO MARRY SOME STRANGER?!?!!!!" and with that she fainted.
2. The Meeting The Prince
"Sakura! Sakura!!"
"mm?" her eyelids flutterd open to see her best friend Tomoyo. "Wha…what happened?"
"Umm.. Hehe… you see.. Ermmm… your father….hehe…he….wants you to get married?? ^-^;;;;;" she said uneasily.
The memories of what just happened flew across her mind. ' My daughter Sakura Kinomoto of the Kinomoto Kingdom will be arranged to meet Syaoran Li of the Li Kingdom to see if there could be a future engagement!' oh no… oh no… no, no, no, no, no!!!! ahhhhhhgggg… MARRIED?? TO SYAORAN LI?? SOME STRANGER??? Greeaaaattttt! Jussst what I need to wake me up in the morning… T-T
She shot right up in bed and fell off, "AHHHH!!!! *plop* OH NO TOMOYO!! WHAT AM I GOING TO DO? I'M STILL WAITING…waiting for Hiryuu…" she ended quietly. 'what if Hiryuu comes back?
"Don't worry Sakura! Everything is going to be okay. Besides! You've turned down every guy so far. He's no different! Just shoot him down just like the rest! No problem! If fact… he might shoot you down first… I heard he's pretty cold hearted…"
"hah! I'll make him wish he were dead with my pranks. I mean he won't believe what hit him. He's expecting a girly girl that would fall for his feet and kiss and worship the floor he walks on. That just shows how much he doesn't know about THE Sakura Kinomoto Princess of the Kinomoto Kingdom!" she slashed up her fist in a 'triumphant' pose.
"HOHOHOHO!!!! I'll be here to sketch it all!!" she took out a sketch pad from her bag she was carrying.
"Hahaha! Well come on. Lets go get some breakfeast! I'm startving!!" she got up from bed and headed downstairs. All of a sudden "HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOEEEEE!!!!!!" *WHAM* she fell down.
"Kajuu…" she heard Toya her big brother mumble.
"OH - HIGH -YO! Grrrrr…" [[spelling is rong yes I noe. I juss rote it by pronounciation so you guys could read it. ^-~]]
"Oh- High- Oh…kajuu!" he smirked and snickered.
"GRRRR…BAKA!!!" and under the table she stomped on his foot.
"ahhggg!!" he winced in pain but smiled afterwards. He liked getting on her nerves. It was interesting to see her face get red and see her make these really WEIRD faces.
~*~ meanwhile back at the Li Kingdom~*~
"I CAN'T BELIEVE THE NERVE OF THEM!! MARRYING ME OFF TO SOME PERSON I DON'T EVEN KNOW! SHE'S PROBABLY LIKE ANY OTHER GIRL!! CLINGY, WHINY, MISS BABY TALK! AHHHG!!" a chocolate colored hair boy with chocolate brown eyes screamed in frustration. He was sort of tall, muscular, and really handsome. But sorry to say… he was also pretty conceded, and what guy wouldn't be if every girl was falling at his feet? He would casually flirt with them but would never actually 'go-out' with them.
"You know, Syaoran, that you have nothing to worry about. I've been doing "research" and well it seems that Princess Kinomoto, hmm… I've heard that somewhere before but oh well any ways, has turned down every guy she's been offered, which makes… about… 24 guys so far. I also heard she's a really pretty girl, but doesn't act like a girl either. She pretty much acts like a guy and you know what else that surprises me the most? She knows how to use a sword… hmm… this girl is different." a young man with deep blue eyes and navy bluish hair said.
"Eriol… what are you trying to say? That SHE would DARE turn ME down? ME? Hahahah!! That's is pathetic. Girls WORSHIP me!"
"Yes… NORMAL girls worship you, girls that WHINE and CLING but THIS girl is different… I bet she'd spit at your face and laugh instead of saying sorry. I bet you will never be able to make her like you."
"You BET eh? I'll make her fall in love with me! You just watch!!! If I win you must do whatever I please for a month. If you win I'll do whatever you please for a month. Deal?" Syaoran said with an evil grin.
"Deal my dear decendant…" they shook hands and left to go eat something.
'this is going to be easy. There is no girl in the WORLD that wouldn't like me. I mean look at me! I'm everything a girl wants. She's going to fall for me in 2 seconds flat. this is going to be a breeze.' Syaoran thought. Little did he know that Sakura Kinomoto wasn't that easy to catch. This mission was as easy as finding a needle in a haystack which wasn't easy at all…
¤day that Sakura goes to Syaoran's kingdom¤
'*yawn* I am so tired… how long does it take to go to another kingdom?? Sheesh! It seems like ages have passed…' Sakura thought. She was a realy cheerful and happy person and loved to run around outside. But here she was stuck in a stupid carriage sitting on the stupid chair on her way to the stupid castle to see a stupid idiot prince. What a waste of time T_T. She fiddled with the ring that Hiryuu gave her. It was still as beautiful as before. 'where are you Hiryuu?…' she thought sadly and felt tears rise up to her eyes.
‡‡» Syaoran's Castle« ‡‡
He saw a pink carriage appear in the distance. He also felt an aura…but who… the nearer the carriage arrived the stronger the aura. Could it be…? The carriage stopped in front of him. The first woman to get out was a girl with lilac colored eyes and dark long black hair that loosely fell to her waist. She was really pretty. She looked over at Syaoran and smiled a polite smile. Then she looked at Eriol who was next to Syaoran… he was gaping at Tomoyo. She giggled and walked over to them.
"Hello. My name is Tomoyo Daidoji. I'm Sakura's friend from the Daidoji Kingdom."
"I'm Syao-" he stopped and stared ahead. A pretty girl with short auburn hair and piercing emerald eyes with a pretty pink-silver gown stepped out of the carriage. She was… just… WOW. He couldn't explain. There were no words to describe her beauty. She looked this way and he felt really hot. 'did the tempurture just go up? Its hot here.' [[cuz he's never blushed before *wink wink*]] she made her way towards them with a happy smile on her face.
"Hello! My name is Sakura Kinomoto from the Kinomoto Kingdom. Who's who?"
"My name is Eriol Hir---YOU! Kinomoto! I KNEW IT SOUNDED FAMILIAR! Weren't we at war with each other 5 years ago?!!?!" he said with steam rising.
She grew very red with anger, "YOOOU!!!! Grrrr!!!!!!!!!!! YOU TOOK HIM AWAY FROM ME! IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!! HE'S GONE!!! WHERE IS HE?!?!!!? WHERE!??!!!" tears fell from her eyes and she ran off into the forest leaving a confused and mad Eriol Hirogizawa, a confused and shocked Syaoran Li and a sad and mad Tomoyo.
"You BAKA! WHY DID YOU DO THAT!!! *SLAP* HOW DARE YOU DO THAT TO HER!! DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU JUST DID??!!!?!!" with that she stormed off looking for her friend to comfort her.
"WHAT DID I DO?!!!?" Eriol yelled but she already ran off to look for Sakura. He rubbed his right cheek. That slap was hard he felt like his cheek was on fire. He also felt a weird 'pang' in his heart at that moment…as if… someone just…slashed his heart or something… "whatever" he said and shrugged it off.
"umm… Eriol. What just happened?" Syaoran said with arched eyebrows.
He explained everything to Syaoran about the war and such.
"NOOO you IDIOT! What was SHE talking about?? She said something about you taking someone away from her."
"Now that? I have NO idea. Lets go back inside I need to put ice on my cheek."
"No you go on. I think I'll take a walk"
Eriol arched his brow, Syaoran Li never EVER took a 'walk'. He shrugged and left. Syaoran looked to where the forest was and ran in to look for the Princesses.
He walked around for about an hour when he stopped. He felt and aura and…sobbing? He walked around some more… the aura grew stronger. He finally stopped and saw the princesses…but the Kinomoto Princess was… different. The aura he had sensed was coming from her. He was about to approach when she spoke.
"I KNOW YOUR THERE! COME OUT! NOW! WHOEVER YOU ARE!!!!"
He stepped out and gasped and she gasped. "Y-YOU…" she didn't finish and just stared. "the aura was coming from YOU!!" she yelled. Her eyes where bloodshot and very puffy from crying. Tomoyo was by her side glaring at him.
"WHAT DID I DO?!!! I didn't DO anything!" Sakura just continued crying.
Tomoyo got up and pulled him far from her.
"what do you think your doing?!!" she hissed
" I CAME TO LOOK FOR BOTH OF YOU! "
"WELL YOU FOUNDUS NOW LEAVE YOU---" she growled but was interrupted.
"No… he's right… lets go back Tomoyo. We don't even know our way back" Sakura said out of no where.
"are you sure Sakura?" Tomoyo's death glares to Syaoran turned into concerned eyes. Sakura nodded. Syaoran walked to her and tilted her chin up to him and looked deep into her eyes and said three little words she never expected to hear…
