*.::.*Preview of Last Chapter*.::.*
Once everyone was gone, Xiu turned to Wen and said, "I like that Kinomoto girl. She has a great body. I think I'd like to steal her away and I'll get her like every other girl." Xiu smirked.
"Well," Wen said, "whatever. I'm not wasting my time. As much as I hate Xiao Lang for being the next future leader of this Clan instead of you or me, I don't think I'll try to do that. Plus anyway, him being the future Clan leader is the only reason we actually hate him. It's not like we hate him enough to try and kill him." Wen said.
'Yeah right.' Xiu thought to himself. 'You might be the one to now hate him enough to want him dead, but I hate him enough to want him to be tortured and be miserable for the rest of his fucking life.'
"Plus anyway," Wen continued, "looks like Xiao Lang actually found a nice girl, not those snobbish girls that go after him for his money."
"Are you going to help me try and seduce her or not?" Xiu asked. Wen just looked at him like he was crazy.
"Man, this is all yours. I already have someone I actually like and you know I want to marry her because I think she is a great person. And if you have forgotten, she is Xiao Lang's sister, Fuutie, and I am not about to get on his bad side. He already hates me enough thanks to you and your plans of trying to make his life miserable, where you always drag me into them. I'm having trouble of telling Fuutie that I do love her and mean no harm to her and her family. And let's not forget that I am also trying to get on Xiao Lang's good side." Wen complained.
"Oh please. You and your stupid imagination of thinking your in love with that bitch."
"For the last time damn it, don't call her that!" Wen then left his brothers side as he went to his room.
Xiu just looked at his brother until he disappeared. "Idiot. You're the fool to fall for a Li. I, however, will get my revenge on them. My father should have been the leader of this Clan, making me next in line. And it's all Xiao Lang's father's fault that we lost the title. Don't worry father, I'll get my revenge. Our revenge."

My Sakura

Chapter Twelve:
*~*Touya's Reaction*~*
"Thanks for the tour of your house-err-mansion, Syaoran! You're place is so beautiful, I love it already!" Sakura exclaimed.
"Yeah, I have to agree with Sakura. "Tomoyo said. "It's so nice and twice as big as mine! Too bad Eriol left after only seeing a little bit of your mansion." She said, rather disappointedly.
"Oh don't worry, it's only because he'd seen it before a million times." Syaoran said. "Plus, he's probably training a little knowing he'll want to have another fight against me. He seems to like to do that every time he comes here."
"Can we watch?" Both girls asked eagerly.
Syaoran sweat dropped at them before nodding. "Yeah, sure. I don't mind and I'm sure Eriol doesn't either especially since Tomoyo is going to be there." With that said, Tomoyo turned five shades of pink and red.
"Oh how cute! Syaoran, you made her blush!" Sakura said, acting very Tomoyo-like at which Syaoran just smiled at her cuteness. "Come on Tomoyo, let's go change in something else before watching Syaoran and Eriol fight! Thanks for the tour Syaoran! Can you wait for us outside my room so you can show us they way to the training room? I know you just showed us all the places but I don't think I can memorize all of them by today, eheheheh!"
"Sure, no problem. And I want to talk to you afterwards, maybe before or after dinner." Syaoran said.
"OK." Sakura answered, curious as to what he wants to talk to her about.
"Yeah, and while we are in the room changing into something else, you can tell me all about how you and Syaoran got together! See you later Syaoran!" Tomoyo grabbed Sakura's hand as they started to run, but before they turned the corner they came to a halt and turned to face Syaoran. Syaoran looked at them waiting to know why they suddenly stopped.
"What?"
"Umm, can you show us the way to our room?" Tomoyo asked. Syaoran and Sakura sweat dropped.
"Follow me, both of you." Syaoran smiled at Sakura as he took her hand in his, leading the way to their rooms. Both still blushed slightly by the skin contact, but were content with what's happening, as well as enjoying it. Tomoyo, on the other hand, had stars in her eyes as she whipped out the video camera she was using to record the detour of Syaoran's home.
"Oh! You two make an absolutely adorable couple! How CUTE! I can't wait till you tell me all about how you two got together, Sakura! I want to know everything. I want details and don't you dare leaving anything out, got it?" Tomoyo asked.
Sakura and Syaoran blushed slightly more as Sakura nodded, smiling at her friend's ecstatic face.
* :.::.: * In Sakura's room * :.::.: *
"…and so, that's how Syaoran and I got together." Sakura said, as she finally finished her story of how she and Syaoran became a couple. Both girls already finished getting dressed and started walking towards the door.
"Ahhh, that was so cute and adorable. I can't believe I missed recording such a cute moment!" Tomoyo cried out disappointedly.
Sakura reached for the doorknob as she got ready to open up the door.
* :.::.: * Outside Sakura's room * :.::.: *
As promised, Syaoran was waiting for Tomoyo and Sakura to get out so he can show them the way to the training room . He was leaning on the door, getting bored of waiting.
"This is so mundane….why do girls take so loooong??"
Then suddenly, the door opens and…
"AHHHH!"
"Ahhhh!"
*Thud*
"Ouuuchhhh…." Syaoran sat on the floor rubbing his bottom that seemed to hurt.
"Thank goodness I never stopped recording! I got it all on tape!"
"Ohhh Syaoran! I'm so, so sorry! I didn't know you were leaning on the door! Are you okay?" Sakura asked, bewildered and concerned, as she bent down on the floor to his level to make sure he was alright.
"Are you alright?" Tomoyo asked, just as worried as Sakura.
"Yeah, I am." Syaoran answered.
"Here, let me help you up." Sakura said, as she offered her hand to him. Syaoran gladly accepted and let her help him up.
"Sorry, I guess I shouldn't have leaned on the door like that. That was stupid of me. I should have seen it coming."
"It's alright, Syaoran. It's not all your fault…well…actually it is since you were leaning on the door when you knew that the only way we can leave the room is through the door…but that's not my point!" Sakura said. Syaoran blushed slightly out of embarrassment.
"Ahhhh how cute. You're still holding hands!" Tomoyo right away thought of a name for the cute moment she got with her trusty video camera.. Syaoran and Sakura immediately turned a darker shade of pink. "Ohohohohoho! I'll call this one, 'Syaoran's stupidity.' Ohohohohohoho!"
"Tomoyo!" Sakura and Syaoran yelled at the same time. Tomoyo put her camera down and sighed. "Okay, Okay. I'll stop recording now. But I'm keeping the name!" Both of the young couple sweat dropped. "Let's just go to the training room already."
"AHHHHHHHH!!" A girls suddenly shrieked. All three turned around as their eyes widened at the who they saw. "TOMOYO! SAKURA! SYAORAN!!!" Meilin screamed. Tomoyo and Sakura screamed excitedly as well as they all ran to the other giving each other hugs. (I know, it might not really be how they would act once they meet each other, but oh well! It's my story!)
Syaoran had to put his hands on his ears to make sure he wouldn't go deaf.
"I missed you two so much!"
"You should have called and wrote to us everyday! Sakura and I missed you so much just as well!"
"I'm so glad you're here! Now we can hang out like before once again!! You and Syaoran have to show Tomoyo and I around!"
"Of course! Syaoran! Where are your manners? No 'hello' and no hug?" Meilin exclaimed.
"Hey Meilin. It's good to see you again." Syaoran said as he walked over to her and gave her a hug. Meilin hugged him back and smiled at him.
"Much better. That wasn't so hard, now was it? Are you all going somewhere?" Meilin asked.
"Yeah, Tomoyo and I are going to go watch Syaoran and Eriol fight. Wanna come with us?" Sakura asked.
"Yeah! And then maybe we can fight a little bit, too. I kind of missed fighting with you Syaoran. You're always a great competition."
"Alright, alright. Let's just go there already. Mother will probably want to talk during dinner which is in about an two hours. If we want to have enough time to fight, go back to our rooms to shower and change and then make it on time for dinner, then we have to go already."
"Have patience Syaoran. Come on Meilin, Tomoyo, let's go!" Sakura grabbed Syaoran's hand as they all walked side by side, talking and making conversation.
"Tonight, we can all go to my room and talk to catch up some more." Meilin suggested. Tomoyo and Sakura just agreed.
* :..::..: * Training Room * :..::..: *
Syaoran glared at Xiu who was talking to Sakura.
"Concentrate, Syaoran late. Let's get this fight started." Eriol said.
"Sorry, but I don't trust Xiu with Sakura, and I'm sure you should feel the same about Tomoyo." Syaoran replied.
Eriol looked at him in confusion, as he turned around to look in the direction Syaoran is looking at. Only then did he realize what he had meant. Eriol didn't trust Xiu at all. He too started glaring at the back of Xiu, who was chatting animatedly with both girls. Both men scowled at the scene.
"Let's go have a small talk with him before we get fighting." Syaoran said, and Eriol agreed.
* :..::..: * Sakura, Tomoyo and Xiu * :..::..: *
"My, my, my. Two of the most beautiful girls I have seen. Remember me?"
"Yes." Both girls replied.
"Hello there Zheng. I'm Daidouji, Tomoyo."
"Hi, Zheng. My name is Kinomoto, Sakura." Sakura said.
"Oh please, just call me Xiu."
"In that case, you can just call me Sakura." Sakura said. Tomoyo, on the other hand, didn't say nothing, not seeming to trust him very well. Zheng noticed that she hadn't said if it was alright to call her by her first name but let it pass.
"Bag it, Zheng. I know you more than they know you and you're not playing any of that innocent crap." Meilin said angrily. Tomoyo and Sakura looked at the Meilin, confusion filling the features on their faces.
All the sudden, Syaoran and Eriol appeared, each on one side of Xiu. Meilin smirked. "Hey Sakura, Tomoyo, Meilin. Ready to watch us fight?" Syaoran said. All three girls nodded their heads.
"Great. We'll start in a moment. We just need to talk to Xiu here for a second." Eriol said, while Xiu looked at him skeptically.
"Alright, but I get to fight the winner." Xiu replied, trying to look tough in front of the girls. "I'll get back to the two of you lovely ladies in a moment." Both girls blushed at the compliment, but seemed to not trust him as much anymore, while their boyfriend's got red with rage. Tomoyo and Sakura were taken aback when Syaoran and Eriol suddenly started to drag Xiu away and talk to him from afar.
"I wonder what they wanted to talk to him about. He seems…I don't know. I mean he acts nice and all, but his aura is kind of creepy and scary." Sakura said.
"Well, I for one don't trust him at all. Plus, by the looks of it, Syaoran and Eriol don't seem to trust him either." Tomoyo answered.
"That's because he isn't trusted. I'll tell you two about him tonight when you meet me in my room to catch up. I'll show you my room later on, k?" Meilin responded.
* :..::..: * The Boys * :..::..: *
"You better stay away from them if you know what's good for you. I don't know what you're up to, but I knew it's never good. Stay. Away. From. Them." Syaoran demanded angrily, full of distrust.
"The hell with you, Syaoran. I don't even know what you're talking about."
Eriol looked at him incredulously. "You know exactly what we are talking about. Don't do anything you'll regret Zheng." With that said, Eriol and Syaoran walked back to their original fighting spot, Xiu going straight to Sakura, Meilin and Tomoyo.
(Author's Notes: IMORTANT SO READ ME!: Okay, I have no idea for any fighting scenes and the few that I DO actually know, I'm kind of saving it for later on where I really will be needing it. So, this will basically be kind of un-detailed and sort of mundane. Sorry everyone, but please bare with me. I'm not good in any fighting stuff.)
Eriol and Syaoran got in an effective stance that both were comfortable with. They fought just as hard and equally, both having fun. Hand to hand combat was the type of fight they usually enjoyed. No magic. No swords. It's not as if they don't enjoy sparring. with magic and swords, however. In this type of sparring, they had long ago made the rule of whoever falls to the ground first, loses. Fighting was liking working out for them, and this type of workout was one that they enjoyed. They threw full blows and punches and kicked one another. Both seemed to seemed to enjoy when the got the upper hand, but in the end, after a long 45 minutes, Syaoran threw a sidekick that sent Eriol crashing to the floor. Eriol landed with a hard *thud* on the solid, hard and cold ground.
Syaoran smiled in triumph. All three girls cheered and walked up to the two boys, including Xiu, who just stood at the side for the moment. Syaoran gave Eriol his hand and helped him up.
"Great match. It's always nice to have a challenge." Eriol said, smiling.
"Yes, it is nice to have a challenge once in a while. And this one was a really good one. I have to say that I enjoyed it very much." Syaoran responded.
All three girls said their "great-jobs" and "that was amazing." Syaoran appreciated Sakura's comments the most since he cared of what she thought more. He blushed at her comments of how great he was and hugged her.
"Thanks." Syaoran said and gave her a kiss on the lips, which he seemed to enjoy deepening.
"Get a room!" Meilin and Tomoyo said at once.
Xiu, having had enough of this, said, "Let's fight, Syaoran. And don't worry, I won't be too hard on you so you don't get hurt too much." Xiu smirked, at which Syaoran just glared, along with Meilin and Eriol.
"Well, sorry everyone but I afraid I can't stay and watch this next fight. I have to go to talk to aunty Yelan." Meilin said. "I'll see you all at dinner though!"
They all said their good-bye's to Meilin as she left. Once she was gone, Eriol, Tomoyo and Sakura went to sit by the wall to watch Syaoran and Xiu fight.
Xiu smirked. 'Pathetic loser. I'll definitely win this match, especially after your tiresome match from before with Eriol.' "Ready to lose?"
"I've never lost to you. What makes you think you'll win this time?" Syaoran said, smirking back. "You know the rules."
"I'm not stupid. Let's just start already." With that said, Xiu threw the first punch at Syaoran. Syaoran, on the other hand, wasn't surprised at all and blocked right away. Syaoran had to admit, the fight he had with Eriol didn't make him strong to his fullest, but he was still strong. After all, he had trained his whole life. Plus anyway, he isn't the 2nd most strongest sorcerer in the world for nothing, Sakura coming in first.
Not wanting to waste to much energy at first, Syaoran only blocked every punch and kick thrown at him.
"What the matter Syaoran? Can't fight back? Too tired? Afraid you'll make a mistake and loose in front of your precious girlfriend?" Xiu laughed. Syaoran ignored him though, remember the what his instructor, Wei, had told him hundreds of times before.
"Never, ever let your opponent distract you. Pay full attention and block away all distractions. Not matter what your opponent say's, you must learn to stay in control and not let what your opponent say get to you."
Syaoran respected his instructor and he always did as he was told. But this was something that he just didn't want to let go off and have Xiu think he was a coward. Syaoran, having only blocking every one of Xiu's moves, surprised him when he threw a punch square in Xiu's face. Syaoran took advantage of the split second that Xiu let his guard down in from shock to gain the upper hand. Syaoran threw multiple of kicks, the last one sending him flying in the air and to the ground. He smiled at his victory.
"Don't you know you're not suppose to let your guard down? Or do you just never pay attention to your instructors?" Syaoran said, smirking. Xiu just glared at him as he got up.
Syaoran turned around just in time to see Sakura jump on him, smiling cheerfully. "Great job, Syaoran! That was a great fight! Think you can show me some of those moves to me?"
"Of course." Syaoran said, smiling back at her.
"Oh, and good job Xiu. That was a good fight. You're good, too." Sakura told him. Xiu just nodded and excused himself.
'Arghhh, I'll get you, Syaoran.' Xiu said, as he left.
"Nice match Syaoran. I'd stay for maybe another match, but I think I'll take Tomoyo here for a walk in the gardens outside a little. I want to spend some time alone with her, if you guys don't mind. We still have another 20 minutes before we have to go shower and change for dinner."
Tomoyo, blushing slightly, said, "I'll see you at dinner, Sakura. Bye you two!"
"Bye, Tomoyo, Eriol!"
"C-ya you two." Syaoran said. Once the he and Sakura were alone in the room, he turned to her and smiled. "So, you want me to show you a few moves?" Sakura nodded. "Alright then."
"What are you going to teach me?" Sakura asked.
"Well, if you want, I could teach you a few stuff everyday." Syaoran said.
"That'd be great!"
"Alright then. We don't exactly have much time to do a whole lot. We only have twenty minutes. I guess I can teach you a front kick and turning kick tomorrow. And if you progress really good and we end up having enough time, I'll teach you a sidekick."
"All kicks only?" Sakura asked, a little disappointed.
"It's just for the beginning. But you're right. I think I should start teaching you the punches at first. Then I teach you the kicking. But for today, I'll just start with the basic. Okay?" Syaoran asked.
Sakura smiled and nodded. "How long will we do this everyday?"
"About an hour. Now, let's get started and not waste any time. Firstly, there is a basic sparring stance from which I start fighting. You need an effective stance that you're comfortable with. I am right handed, so my left hand is low, out in front, like this," Syaoran showed Sakura and Sakura copied him perfectly, "Good. My left hand is low in front because it guards my body. My right hand is high, guarding my face. Like this. No, no, not like that." Syaoran got behind Sakura and corrected her.
"Ohh, I see. Thanks Syaoran."
"You're welcome. Now keep copying me, okay?" When Sakura nodded, Syaoran continued, with Sakura copying his every move. "Now, my left leg is out to the front, bent, on the ball of the foot, with around 20% of my weight on it. I'm side on to my opponent. Good job, Sakura, you're doing great!"
Sakura kept listening to him, smiling with every compliment she got from him and blushing whenever he made contact with her when he corrected the way she was suppose to stand or do something.
Syaoran was still telling her more about the basic stance. "This is just one stance, though. It's normally effective to have many stances. There are six that I use to keep my opponent from figuring me out. In most, my front hand is low to the front and my rear hand is across my body guarding my face. Never sit in your stance. Keep your toes bouncing around, walking around your opponent, coming closer and moving away. When you're tired, go into the defensive stance from which you can easily distance yourself from your opponent, defend against an attack and launch a counter attack. Are you getting all this?" Syaoran asked.
"Yeah! I'm getting the hang of it."
"Okay. But that's all for today." Syaoran said.
"Ahhhh, but why Syaoran?" Sakura asked, pouting.
"Because we have 10 minutes to shower and get to dinner. Now let's go. I can show you more tomorrow."
"Ohh alright. As long as you promise."
"I promise."
* :..::..: * At Dinner * :..::..: *
(a/u: READ ME: Okay, I'm sure no one wants to read the dinner part, because that'll just be boring. I'm just going to say a few things about it and skip on.)
Dinner went smoothly. The Li sisters seemed to get along with Sakura and Tomoyo just fine and had already taken a liking in them. Yelan already liked them as well. She had been a good at judging character, like her son, and she can tell that they were trusted. She and the four sisters asked Sakura and Tomoyo a few questioned that they gladly answered. Even the one of how they coupled up with their boyfriends, which had them blushing, including the "boyfriends."
Once dinner was over, and everyone ate their dessert, all were full.
"Ahhhh, that was great. Thanks for having me over again Aunty." Meilin said.
"What do you mean by "having me over"? You're here everyday. Heck! You got your own room here!" Syaoran exclaimed.
"And your point is?"
"Ohh forget it." Syaoran said.
"Well, it was nice meeting you two." Fuutie said, and the other three agreed. All four excused themselves and left.
Yelan got up as well. "I have to go to as well now. I have some business to take care of in this clan." With that said, she left.
"I'm going to go home to and bring some more clothes here. I want some of the new things I bought yesterday at the mall here." Meilin said.
"What for? You have a whole huge walk in closet full of clothes here already?" Syaoran asked.
"Like I said, I want some of the *new* clothes I bought at the mall yesterday over here. So, I'll be back in a flash. I'll see you all later! Bye you guys!"
"Bye, Meilin."
"See-ya!"
"Bye."
"Bye."
"Well, I guess it's just as four now." Sakura said.
"Yeah, I need to talk to you for a little bit Sakura. Alone." Syaoran said.
"Ohh, ok. I guess I'll see you later Tomoyo."
"Yup. Meilin said to be in her room by eleven to talk. That should give us a good two hours!" Tomoyo said.
"Alright then. I guess I need to talk to Tomoyo too. So, if you'll excuse us." Eriol said, and left with Tomoyo.
"So, what did you want to talk to me about?"
"Let's go to my room first." Syaoran said. Sakura nodded and let him lead her to his room. Once they got in his room, Sakura took in everything she saw in awe. His room was huge! And mostly green, too. He had his own bathroom, closet, balcony, a king-sized bed, a full length, three-sided mirror and couches. Her room was similar, except hers was light pink and white and a little bit smaller.
"Well, I'm pretty sure Meilin is going to tell you and Tomoyo and Xiu." Sakura nodded when Syaoran said that. Syaoran sighed. "Alright. I know Meilin will tell you all you need to know. You'll understand when she'll tell you. Umm, I just kind of wanted to talk to you for a little bit…about…our relationship."
"What about it?" Sakura asked, curious.
Syaoran sat on one of the couches in his bedroom and patted the seat next to him, pointing out he wanted her to sit next to him. Sakura did so, as Syaoran continued. "I know I was gone for a long time without staying in contact with you. And I'm sorry. I was afraid you would have moved on, forgotten about me. I really loved you Sakura, and I still do. I couldn't have taken it too well if you turned out to have a boyfriend. And the dumb clan didn't exactly want to have me stay in contact with you, anyway. They said it was part of the punishment for not getting the cards."
"I know, Syaoran." Sakura said softly. "You already told me before, you don't have to tell me again. I understand. Was that all you wanted to tell me?" Sakura asked again, knowing that he had more to say.
"Well, no. See, the clan having known that you're my girlfriend now, doesn't expect you to just stay my girlfriend from now on." Syaoran began.
"What do you mean?" Sakura interrupted. "You don't mean that we can't stay together, do you?" She asked, getting nervous of his answer.
"No, no. It's more like this. Now that they now that I love you and you love me and that the feeling are mutual, they'll want more. See, you're powerful and strong and so am I. Together we can have really, and I mean *really* powerful children in the future." Sakura and Syaoran both blushed at the last statement.
"Then what exactly are you trying to tell me?"
"Well, I know we've only been together for a short while. The clan are going to expect us to get married now that we're together and the whole world is wondering who you are right now since they finally met you when you arrived today." Syaoran got off the couch and kneeled on the floor in front of Sakura. Sakura's eye's widened.
"Sakura. I love you more than anything in the world. I love you more than life itself. I want to spend the rest of my life with you and only you. And to make that this will happen, I need to ask you a really important question. Sakura, will you marry me?"
* :..::..: * Japan. Touya * :..::..: *
Touya got finally got home, feeling a bit tired, and decided to watch some TV. He started flipping threw some of the channels. As he was flipping threw the channels, he started to drink his soda. All of the sudden, he spit up the soda he was drinking and when he saw Sakura and Syaoran's picture on one of the news channels.
"We still don't know much of the beautiful and young mysterious girl. We have already, of course, identified Daidouji, Tomoyo and Hiiragisawa, Eriol and told you all about them. Yet, why was our future leader, Xiao Lang, in Japan? What was he doing there and when did he go without anyone knowing? Who is this mysterious girl and what relations does she have with our future leader? That, we still don't know. This mysterious young woman along with Daidouji, Tomoyo and Hiiragisawa, Eriol had arrived in Hong Kong, China this afternoon. Here is a video of what our camera man had gotten." Touya watched the whole thing, mouth open and eyes wide.
"WHAT THE FUCK IS SHE DOING WITH THE BRAT?!"
