Hey, I'm back with yet another chapter. THE LAST CHAPTER!! Woo!
To Argentum Sol and all who were thinking the same:
Someone, I think it was Argentum Sol, had said that there was no build up over the last few chapters and therefore the plot came in too late…. Well, sorry. That same person said that because of that, all the revelations lacked in impact.
Well, *actually* I wanted to have it all revealed all at once. I didn't want it to build up over the chapters. See, I noticed, after reading so many fics, that when you do that you start guessing then knowing what's going to happen and it won't be much of a surprise when it's revealed. For example, you all know that Xiu here is the bad guy. If I revealed a little in each chapter so the revelations didn't come all at once, then that would have meant that you would know about the Wang clan and the Ulrich necklace, and then you'd guess that Xiu has it so it won't be a surprise when I reveal it. That's why I hate giving hints. It ruins the plot and the suspicions cause then you'll know what will happen. So, sorry if you didn't like it all coming in the last chapter and if it went too fast, but that was how I had been planning it all. That's the way I like my writings.
If my sentences are somewhat awkward or hard to read, then I am so, so sorry. Thanks for mentioning it though. This way I'll try my best not to do that. But this the first time I'm writing a fic, and seeing how it's not a school essay, I don't really look back at it and edit it. So I think I did a good job since I didn't bother to edit it. But I'll do that with my next fic, seeing how it's too late for this one. Thanks for mentioning it though. I appreciate it.
Umm I don't think I need an editor for this fic. It's a little too late anyway. Thanks anyway. Oh and I loved everyone's reviews. They were awesome. Thanks everyone!!
P.S. This is *meant* to be short. It's just an epilogue.
Now, on with the fic! Last chapter!!
*.::.*Preview of Last Chapter*.::.*
The Elders, including Wen, Meilin, Eriol, Tomoyo and all who were waiting in the room anxiously greeted the two, hugging them and expressing how they felt. Some were on the verge of crying, others had tears coming down already. They all demanded to know what happened after the little sad reunion. Sakura and Syaoran proceeded in telling them of the entire events, while Xiu was put in a magical cell the prevented anyone from using magic. In short, if you tried to use your magic, it won't work.

Epilogue
After everything was explained and Xiu was punished (his punishment was to be stripped of his magic in which the Elder's have the power to do that. Afterwards, he was kicked out of the Clan and was to be watched at all times to make sure he does nothing wrong again), the very next day they all spend time together, mainly to catch up with Xiong and him to catch up with them.
Touya spend most of the time glaring at Syaoran, but other than that everyone had fun. On that same day, the decided to have a party to celebrate Xiong's welcome back home. Preparations and making invitation would have taken long, but thanks to Sakura and Syaoran being able to use the Sakura Cards, everything went much faster and the invitations were all send. The party was to be held in a week and a half to celebrate the coming back of Xiong and explaining what had happened. All those present would hear the true story and Illusion Card would be used so that the Clan and the Media that (hose without knowing of the existence of magic) will hear the slightly different story without magic involved. Those with magic would be told the Illusion card is being used so they won't panic and think those who don't know of the existence of magic are hearing them (a/n: I keep saying those who don't know the existence of magic because Meilin and Tomoyo don't know how to do magic but they know it exists. They won't be the only ones at the party who know of magic but don't know how to use it. They'll be others. But they aren't important in *my* fic).
As for the Wang Clan, let's just say that all who were involved in ridding of Xiong or knew but said nothing, unless they were threatened, were all punished in the same way as Xiu. The other clans had been called and informed of everything and together the different clans have ruled to punish those involved with the same punishment as Xiu (a/n: only the clans with magic. The ones without magic were told that those involved in the Wang Clan had tried to rid of him but hadn't succeeded. JUST PLAY ALONG! Hehe! They made up a whole story that I'm not going to say because you don't need to know the entire thing, okay? It'll be just plain boring. Hehehe.) Everything was re-explained at the party, for those who weren't told and for the Media.
The invitations had been all sent out and the day of the celebration party had come and gone fantastically. Everything had been explained, everyone had gossiped about it and everyone had had fun. Fujitaka hadn't gone back yet, having another archaeological expedition that was in Hong Kong. It was to take a pretty long time for this dig and everyone had insisted that he stays at the mansion with Sakura, which he accepted gratefully. Touya had gone back though to finish college. Before he left, he made sure to threaten Syaoran that if Sakura was in any more danger or if she was hurt in anyway, he would make sure to kill him slowly.
Time went by and everything seemed to be fine. Even college. Sakura was doing very well. But everything seemed to turn upside down with one single test and a visit to the doctor.
Sakura sat in her seat eating dinner. Everyone else was talking, which included the entire Li family and Elders, Tomoyo, Eriol and her father. She had been quiet for a while, not talking much all day since she got back from the doctor appointment that morning.
Syaoran looked at Sakura. She had been sick yesterday and he was worried. He made sure to make her an appointment to see what's wrong. "So, Sakura. How did your doctor appointment go? Did the doctor say what was wrong?" Sakura played with her food, moving it around with her spoon. It was as if she never heard a thing. "Sakura? Sakura?" Syaoran waved his hands in front of her. That snapped her back as she said,
"Hoe?"
"Sakura what's wrong?" Syaoran asked again. Everyone stared at her. Tomoyo looked at her worriedly as she put a hand on her shoulder.
"Hoe? Nothing is wrong." Sakura said.
"Are you sure?" Her father asked. "You look a little bit pale and you haven't even touched your food."
Sakura looked at Syaoran. "Um, I…you're going to be…you see…"
"What is it Sakura? What's wrong?" Syaoran asked her in her mind.
Sakura smiled nervously and said, "Well, I'm…" Syaoran took a drink of his water, "pregnant." All the water spilled out of his mouth and straight down on his plate.
"Syaoran!" Yelan exclaimed.
"Ewww brother spit all over his food and I think some came onto mine!" Sheifa exclaimed as well.
"Son what's wrong?" Xiong asked.
"What? I don't think I heard you right Sakura." Syaoran said slowly.
"What are you talking about Syaoran?" Fuutie asked.
"Yeah," Fanren cut in, "She never said anything." Syaoran got up and took Sakura's hand in his and excused himself as they left the room. As soon as both we're out, almost everyone got up and ran to the door pressing theirs ears on it trying to hear. No use. It looks like they were talking softly. They only heard bits and pieces.
*.::.* Sakura and Syaoran *.::.*
"Did you say you were pregnant?" Syaoran asked. Sakura nodded, staring at her feet. She didn't think he would react that way. "Is that why you went to the doctors? Why you were throwing up?" Sakura nodded yet again. Syaoran sighed and walked closer to her. He lifted her chin so she would look at him and was surprised when he saw tears spilling. "Don't cry." Syaoran said as he embraced her. "I'm not mad if that's what you're thinking. I was just surprised, that's all."
Sakura nodded as she snuggled her head on the crook of his neck. "I'm glad." Said Sakura, in a very mellifluous and sweet-filled voice. Syaoran moved back enough to look into her sea of emerald eyes and wipe her tears away. As soon as Syaoran smiled softly at her, Sakura couldn't help but smile back.
"Well, I am technically going to be the leader by the end of this month, making me the youngest of all leaders. And we're engaged, and seeing how I'm going to need a bride and we'll be getting married, this won't sound like a bad thing to the Elders at all. We can just say we decided to have the baby now instead of waiting until the opportune moment, not that we're not going to do 'it' on our honeymoon…"
"Syaoran!" Sakura interrupted. "You're such a pervert!" Syaoran just smiled and gave her a succulent kiss that was to die for, wrapping his arms protectively around her waist. Sakura melted in his arms as the kiss turned provocative. When they finally parted their breaths had become ragged. "I love you." Sakura whispered slickly. (a/n: please notice the 'L' so you know she said sLickly and NOT sickly….ok so notice the 'l.')
"I love you, too." Syaoran looked into her emerald green eyes, getting lost into them once again. "How far along are you?"
"Four weeks. How are we going to tell everyone else?" Sakura asked.
"Ohh it's not everyone else that we have to worry about. They'll be ecstatic especially Tomoyo and my sisters. The Elders will get mad a little for not waiting. No big. Same goes for mother. Dad… well I'm not totally sure how he'll react but I'm sure it won't be bad. So you see. It's not them we have to worry about. You're dad will understand, being the understanding guy he is. What we have to worry about is telling your brother." Syaoran as Sakura giggled.
"Yeah, that's true. I don't think I want to see his reaction all that much either." Sakura said. Both were silent for a few minutes, content on being in each other's arms. "Do you think I'm pretty?" Sakura asked out of the blue.
"Mmm, you're beautiful." Syaoran said as he gently kissed her neck.
"Do you always want to be with me?"
"I don't want to be with you." Syaoran said. Sakura looked into his eyes, surprised. Syaoran just smiled and said, "I *need* to be with you." He kissed her temple as Sakura said,
"You're such a sweet talker. You know that?"
"Yeah. And I think we kept everyone waiting long enough in there. Think we should go break the news to them? Let them know they'll be grandmothers and grandfathers and aunts and uncles?" Syaoran said between kisses.
"Yeah." Sakura said as she kissed him on the lips yet again. "Have I told you how much I love you?"
Syaoran laughed, "Only a million times. But tell me again anyways." Sakura smiled as she kept on repeating that she loved him and only stopped when Syaoran captured her lips in a tantalizing, passionate and steamy kiss.
"I love you so much." Syaoran said. "You're my Sakura." Both smiled. "So, I don't think I understand how you got pregnant. I mean, you said it yourself. With the Create card, it should be working effectively, a hundred percent."
"Yes, but if you remember four weeks ago when you seemed too excited that I think we totally forgot to use the card."
"I see. But you have to admit. It wasn't my entire fault. It was your fault, too. If you weren't wearing that dress on our date, I wouldn't have been so turned on."
"My dress?" Sakura asked, puzzled. "What does my dress have to do with your excitement?"
"Well, it did look perfect on you. I mean you should have looked at yourself in the mirror. The gorgeous green dress had accentuated every curve in your body. It brought out your eyes, not to mention that green is my favorite color. And it certainly did show a little more cleavage, if you now what I mean." Syaoran said seductively. The last part earned him a slap on the back of his head. "Ow! What was that for?"
"Get those ideas out of your head. Now is not the time." Said Sakura.
"What ideas?" Syaoran played dumb.
"Don't play dumb." Sakura said. "I saw that look in your eyes, the same ones that tell me you want to do it because your getting turned on. And don't blame it on what I'm wearing now. I'll I'm wearing is a simple white skirt and light pink tank top. It your fault for reminding yourself of what we did that night."
"You mean reminding me of what we do many nights?" Syaoran began again.
"Syaoran!" Sakura said, blushing.
"What I'm only telling the truth."
"You're making me blush."
"Maybe it's because you're reminding yourself too." Syaoran laughed as he saw her blush grow deeper. "I knew it. I'm not the only one."
*.::.* Back in the other room *.::.*
"This is pathetic." Eriol began. "We can't hear everything. All we know so far is something about…a green dress? Being the next leader, marriage, blushing, remembering something they do at night, wearing…wait a second…" Eriol thought for a while. "What *do* they do at night??"
Everyone looked at him in confusion. It was only in a matter of seconds that they finally caught on. "Yeah, what *does* little brother do with Sakura at night….you don't think they…you know…" Feimei trailed while wiggling her eyebrows. The four sisters 'oooohed' simultaneously at this.
"Don't be ridiculous." An Elder said. "He knows he's suppose to wait. They're getting married soon for heavens sake they can wait."
"You know, sometimes the do act weird at night, before we all go to sleep. Like they would blush when they haven't said anything and we haven't said anything to embarrass them or anything." Sheifa said.
"Or we try to talk to them except they look like they are already in a conversation of their own, except they aren't talking to each other at all." Meilin said.
"That's true." Yelan said thoughtfully.
"So," Tomoyo began, "You think they can talk to each other without actually saying anything?"
"You mean telepathically?" Eriol said.
"You know, that is possible." Xiong said.
"But only if both people have a strong aura…" And Elder said,
"Which they both have." Another Elder said.
"But they have to…you know…" Yet another Elder said.
"Oh come on. Just say it. They have to have sex and have a really strong and powerful aura which they do." Meilin said. Just then Syaoran and Sakura came in hand in hand. Everyone stared at the two.
"What?" Syaoran said.
"Can you two speak telepathically?" Tomoyo and Meilin divulged immediately.
"How did you know?" Sakura exclaimed. "Oh…she didn't know. She was only asking…" Sakura and Syaoran sweat dropped. "Eheheh, oops…guess we should have told you?"
"So then you two did have sex!" All four sisters exclaimed, which earned them all a huge squeal when both Sakura and Syaoran blushed.
"Oh my god, Sakura! Are you pregnant? Is that what you told Syaoran telepathically and made him spill his drink?" Everyone went silent and looked at the two as Tomoyo said that. "I can't believe it! I missed taping the whole thing!" Eriol sweat dropped as he put on arm around the now dejected Tomoyo.
"Umm…" Sakura began. She looked at Syaoran. "Syaoran has something to tell all of you!"
"What?" Syaoran was surprised. "We agreed for you to tell them!" Sakura looked at Syaoran pleadingly into his eyes with puppy eyes. "Ahhh I hate when you do that. Please don't…" Her lower lips trembled a little, "Ok, ok, I'll tell them!" Sakura smiled. Syaoran sighed at turned to look at all the heads staring back at him and Sakura.
"Well everyone…"
*.::.* Later that night, Syaoran's room .*..::.*
"Well, I think that went well." Syaoran said. Sakura sighed while being in his warm embrace. Both were cuddled up and thinking.
"Yeah, if you take out the part where all the Elders yelled at you angrily, including your mom." Sakura said sarcastically.
"But dad calmed her down and your dad seemed understanding." Said Syaoran.
"Hey, at least we don't have to sneak in to sleep with each other."
"Really? We don't?" Syaoran said. Sakura looked at him confused and then said,
"Not that way! I meant sleeping in the same bed!"
"Ohhh, I see what you meant now." Syaoran sweat dropped and said, "Just a misunderstanding. So, when do you want to tell Touya?"
"Umm, after the wedding. That way he can't do anything on the wedding and he can't hurt you because we'll be leaving for our honeymoon right away. So we tell him before we leave for our honeymoon, when everyone is around to restrain him."
"Great…then everything is settled. You don't think Kero will react in the same way Touya will react do you?" Syaoran said hopefully.
"Naw, just bribe him with food and new games. He'll forget all about it." Sakura laughed. She gave Syaoran a quick, sweet kiss on the lips and then titled her head up to stare into his eyes. She certainly didn't miss the gleam in his eyes. "Oh no," Sakura said. "I know that look. Someone is having some dirty thoughts."
"You know, Sakura. I never did think this way so much until we first did it. I mean, ever since then, it's like you've turned me to a sexaholic. You know what I mean? "
"You know, that is true. I hope you do good then because we won't be able to do it much after a while." Sakura said thoughtfully.
"What? Why?" Syaoran whined then blushed as he realized it.
Sakura giggled, "I was kidding. I had asked the doctor and he said that it was totally safe to continue doing so even though I'm pregnant. Oh and we have an appointment tomorrow morning at 10 so I suggest we seriously go to sleep now if I'm to wake up that early…" Syaoran laughed at this, yet agreed.
"Sure. Of course we'll sleep. We'll need it….just after having some fun…" Syaoran said huskily into her ear.
*.::.* At the Hospital, next morning *.::.*
Syaoran and Sakura looked at the doctor and as he talked to them about how the baby was doing. Sakura was currently hooked up to a machine that showed her four-week baby on the computer monitor.
"As you can see," the doctor began, "a primitive face is taking form, with large circles where eyes will appear. The mouth, lower jaw, and throat are developing." He pointed to what he was explaining by showing them where it was located on the peanut like baby. "Little tubules, right here, foreshadow internal organs such as the gallbladder, liver, and stomach. The tiny 'heart' tube will be beating 65 times a minute by the end of this week."
"Oh how interesting. You know all that?" Sakura asked, while Syaoran smiled at her cuteness. The doctor laughed and said,
"Of course. After all, it's my job to know this. The embryo as it is now called, should be about 3/16 of an inch in length by the end of the week. And Miss Kinomoto, or should I start saying Miss Li now?"
"Miss Li, please." Syaoran answered for her, liking the sound of that much more.
"Alright, well Miss Li, you're doing a great job so far and your baby is looking healthy and normal. I'll see you at the next appointment I guess." Sakura nodded.
When Syaoran and Sakura left and got into Syaoran's car, Syaoran turned to Sakura and said, "You know…I really can't wait till we're married…and till we have the baby…"
Sakura smiled cheerfully as she said, "Me, too." She leaned in and gave him a sweet and lingering kiss on his lips. "I love you."
"I love you, too."
"You know, we should start thinking of some boy and girl names…."
The End.

Well, don't forget to review and tell me what you think! I'm really busy right now (just finished midterms this week) and I'll be busy all this month actually. I'm going to be moving into a bigger house so there will be a lot of stuff to do from getting stuff ready to get new furniture to organizing the house to getting new stuff in (we're going to re do part of the kitchen and changing the carpet and repaint and etc.) and so on. Plus, we just finished the first half year of the school so there will be schedule changes and all and blah blah blah. I'm just glad midterms are over. I only have Chemistry midterm to take on Tuesday (no school Monday cause of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day).
