Chapter 1
"SAKURA-CHAN WAKE-UP!" Kero-chan yelled.
"HOOOEEEEEE" Sakura woke up with a start. It was Saturday morning and she couldn't figure out why she had set her alarm clock. Then she remembered her date with Syaoran, and how she was meeting his family for the first time.
"Oh my gosh, did I turned off my alarm! I'm going to be late again!!" Sakura exclaimed.
"Sakura-chan, when are you not late?" Kero-chan asked teasingly.
"Kero- chan, do me a favor and SHUT-UP!!"
"Hai, Hai."
It has been 6 years, since the last card has been changed into a Star Card. Things have been pretty normal. Sakura and Syaoran have been an official couple for 4 years, and all of Sakura's closest friends and family knows about her 'secret' life. Sakura is now 17 years old and is still beautiful. She had let her grow out to her shoulders it still a beautiful golden brown. She is about 5'6, with a well-formed body. Her powers have grown immensely, increasing her inner beauty as well her outer.
As Sakura ran outside the house to go to the park she realized that she was already a half hour late. She looked around and took out her S tar Key.
Oh Key of the Star

RELEASE!
The staff grew and Sakura took out the Dash card.
"DASH" Sakura started running and suddenly she was at the spot that she was supposed to meet Syaoran. He was sitting on the swing, where he had comforted her so many years ago. He looked tense.
"Your late Sakura-chan! Okaa-san is going to be angry!" Syaoran said standing up.
"Syaoran-kun, sweetie, I know its important today, gomen nasai." Sakura said quickly.
"I'm not mad Sakura-chan. Its just that Okaa-san is extremely strict, and thinks punctuality is important."
"Then we should use the Fly card," She said being her usually genki self. Sakura took out the card and called upon on it. She changed it into a staff form so Syaoran could ride in back of her. She loved it when Syaoran put his arms around her waist. They both climbed on. Right before they took off, Syaoran kissed the back of her neck gently, sending shivers down her spine.
"Do you know how much I love you Sakura-chan?" Syaoran asked.
"Not as much as I love you," Sakura said as she turned around on the staff to face him.
"Can you prove it?" Syaoran teased while leaning down.
"Maybe"
When Syaoran's lips touched hers, she sighed and put her arms around his neck. As he deepened the kiss he pulled her closer, and started running his hands through her hair.
"Wo Ai Ni Sakura-chan." Syaoran murmured when he finally broke the kiss.
"Ashiteru Syaoran-kun." She said after composing herself.
"We'd better get going, if we don't want to be late."
"Hai."
A couple of minutes later they landed in front a mansion.
"Master Xioalang, how good it is to see you." A voice said behind them. Sakura and Syaoran turned around and saw a man with salt and pepper hair/mustache.
"Konnichiwa Wei-san. Sakura-chan I want you to meet my families most trusted servant and friend Wei." Syaoran said.
"Hello Wei-san" Sakura said bowing a little.
"It's a pleasure to finally meet you." Wei said bowing back.
"Wei-san where is my Okaa-san?" Syaoran asked.
"They are on the Verandah" Wei replied.
"Thanks. Come on Sakura-chan" Syaoran said as he grabbed her hand.
When they got to the verandah Sakura saw a woman sitting in a high backed chair. She looked regal-like, with her black hair pulled into a high ponytail with a fancy headpiece. She was wearing a royal purple and pink dress. It had gold ornaments hanging off of it. And had long wide sleeves. Sakura felt like a peasant next to a queen. This woman's hair was perfect, not a strand out of place, where as Sakura was a little disheveled from Syaoran running his hand's through it and the windy ride on with the fly card.
"Sakura-chan, I'd like you to meet my Okaa-san, Yelan Li" Syaoran said respectfully.
"Hello. You must be the Card Mistress that Xiaolang always talks about"
"Umm…. It's very nice to finally meet you Li-san" Sakura said sort of nervous. She could feel a very strong aura coming from this woman.
"You will now meet Xiaolang's sisters. Girls please come here." Yelan called. 3 girls came running from behind the house.
"I would like you to meet Umi Li, Jai Li, and Ying-Fa Li." Yelan said pointing to each one as she said their name.
"Konnichiwa" Sakura greeted feeling a little overwhelmed.
"Konnichiwa" all 3 girls said at once. They started chatting amongst themselves in Chinese.
"Hoeeeee…. Syaoran-kun, I thought you said you had 4 sisters." Sakura said.
Everything became deadly silent. Everyone looked at her in surprise. Then surprise to sadness and sadness into anger.
"Xiaolang what have I told you about mentioning your…. Sister" Yelan said through clenched teeth. It had sounded like she had a hard time getting out the word sister.
"I'm sorry Okaa-san. I did not mean to." Syaoran said looking down at the ground.
"Sakura-san."
"Yes Li-san?" Sakura said looking up.
"Would you like something to eat?" Yelan asked as if nothing had happened.
"Uh, sure." Sakura replied.
For the rest of the afternoon Sakura and Syaoran chatted with his family, but there was tension in the air. The 4th sister obviously upset everyone, but why? Sakura decided to ask Syaoran later. Later when they went home and collapsed on the couch, Sakura decided to ask him.
"Syaoran-kun, will you tell me about this sister of yours, and why your not allowed to talk about her." Sakura asked. She had held her curiosity all day and now she needed to know.
"It's a long story Sakura-chan," he warned
"For you, I have all the time in the world."
"SAKURA-CHAN WAKE-UP!" Kero-chan yelled.
"HOOOEEEEEE" Sakura woke up with a start. It was Saturday morning and she couldn't figure out why she had set her alarm clock. Then she remembered her date with Syaoran, and how she was meeting his family for the first time.
