YAAAAAAAAY! Final installment! This story is now over! But there WILL be a
sequel. I don't know when...but soon. I'm almost done with school so that'll
give me more time to write.
As for my reviews, not so many at the time of this posting. For the last chapter. But I have gotten my favourite review thus far.
Momomiya Akyumi you can certainly become my disciple. I don't know what that entails, but yay for wanting to. Email me any time you like. Actually, anybody who wants to email me feel free. I love gabbing to people.
I'll shut up now and let you read the end.
Disclaimer: I don't own CCS. BUT I FINISHED THIS STORY MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
202 pages in word document. Without chapter titles. Wow.
Epilogue
Two days after the incident with Damian, Sakura was preparing for the coronation ceremony. Again. This time Tomoyo was helping her do her hair right before the ceremony since the queen had slept quite late.
As had her husband.
"I will only forgive you for getting married without me on two conditions, Sakura," the raven haired girl warned with only half joked anger.
"What would those be?" Sakura asked nervously. Pictures of weird costumes and oddly struck poses filled her head as she tried desperately not to swallow hard in apprehension.
"First, you must wear a wedding dress that I make for your formal wedding."
Sakura nodded. "Of course, I would have nothing else. And actually, my first 'wedding dress' was made by you as well."
For a moment, Tomoyo paused, obviously pleased. "I hadn't thought about that. Perhaps I am a little less annoyed. Anyway, second, you never did say just WHEN you got married. Just that you two had."
Sakura giggled and was about to answer when Syaoran entered the room. He looked at the two girls and briefly wondered if perhaps it would be a better idea to run.
"Don't look so scared, Syaoran," Sakura laughed. "Tomoyo just wanted to know what day it was on that we got married."
When Syaoran too began to chuckle, Tomoyo began to get confused. What was so funny about the question. Had they lied? Were they not married at all and it had just been one big joke. No....
"Let's just say, my Lady Tomoyo, that we were only engaged for about...seven hours."
For a long minute, a perplexed look flit through Tomoyo's amethyst eyes. Then comprehension finally came. "You mean you got married the day you got engaged?!" she squealed. "And you had planned to from the start? Before you even told anybody?"
Sakura and Syaoran nodded, laughing at the look on their friend's face. "Actually, to be more accurate, we planned to marry shortly. We didn't know it would be that day until Elder Long decided it."
Tomoyo looked flabbergasted. They had kept it a secret for almost two whole months. She would have started on a long speech if the quarter hour had not been sounded, signaling that it was time for them to all take their places.
"We'll discuss this later!" Tomoyo vowed before running off to take her place on the plaza.
"I bet," Syaoran whispered, feeling distinctly nervous. Then with a smile, he turned to face Sakura and offer his arm. Together they walked to the two doors that Sakura had so impatiently waited behind only two days previous. Their marriage had more or less become public, along with reassurance of a formal and public wedding in a month, the one everyone had been planning in detail since the day they learned of their engagement. Because of this, Syaoran had ben deemed essential to accompany his wife down the long path to the plaza. He would not receive a formal coronation until the wedding day, but they would introduce him to the people as their King.
As they waited together, Sakura turned and smiled up at him. "I love you, King Li Syaoran."
"I adore you, Queen Li Sakura."
With that said, the hour struck and the doors opened to a bright and beautiful day.
Sakura rose from a kneeling position with her crown, a simple but beautifully elegant tiara, firmly settled on her head. With a smile, and a secret grin at her family and friends, she turned to face her people to make her speech.
"My people, I stand before you now as your queen. I can only hope that I will be half so wonderful as my father has been before me, and half so beautiful as my mother," she added to the crowds amusement. "He was a dear man and I am sure we all feel his loss." She paused a moment and surveyed all around her before continuing, her voice becoming stronger.
"My husband is being made known to you as your future king. He is Li Xiao Lang and the next ruler of the Chinese people. It was no one's plan for such a union to occur, least of all my brother's who still strongly objects," she giggled, "but I should hope that it will bring more than happiness to ourselves.
"For too long, the great country of Tomoeda has been split. My ancestors in their fairness hoped to allow each kingdom that became to be under the Tomoeda domain to keep their individualism. The biggest kingdom was the one the Chinese people came from. They still control these lands which take up almost a third of the Tomoeda country. They have even been looked at as a different country by the other people of Tomoeda.
"This must stop," she smiled.
"From this day forth, Tomoeda will become a new kingdom. Before, we were a kingdom of the Sun. We are a people who do not hide. And before, the Chinese people were a kingdom of the Moon. They were a people of pride, integrity and just a bit of mysticism. Now, with my marriage and the invitation for the Elders to become my personal advisors, I hope to make us one country. I say let us now become a country of the Stars.
"Each person in this land is different. We each hold a different light, something that we do well. Alone, we are but small dots in an endless dark. But together, I say, we can light the sky."
Sakura paused and looked over her many people as they stared at her in awe. Quickly she glanced back at her family, her friends, her guardians. Everyone she held dear. Then with a smile and a hint of mischief she turned back to her people.
"Oh, and in closing I would like to add one more thing. We already have another heir to the kingdom on the way. Let us celebrate the birth of my child in nine months."
For a moment, silence rang over the entire crowd as they digested the words. Then, like a roar the likes of which no one had ever heard, one word was shouted out above the rest.
By Touya.
"WHAT?!?!?!"
(A/N: I'll have a MUCH bigger authors note up in a bit. Thank you for finishing my story. Tell me what you think! Also, please be so kind as to read my other two stories! "The Shadow Song (CCS vers)" and "Harry Potter and the Order of the Cherry Blossom" both of which are in the works but I hope are as enjoyable as this one.
