Syaoran and Ryu stepped up. "King Rin what is the meaning of this?" asked Ryu. "We have captured the crystal we are ready to go," said Syaoran. Rin stepped forward. "I am sorry but all of you may not return to the upper world?" he told them. The guards seized them in two groups. Sakura, Kimari, Jakita, and Koji were taken towards the royal family. While the rest were dragged to the stone pad in the center of a circle of guards. Both groups struggled weakly to release themselves to get to their friends. Ryu, Syaoran, Haruna, and Simon cried out when Kimari, Sakura, Haruna, and Koji were knocked unconscious and dragged away. "What is the meaning of this Rin give me back our friends," yelled Ling. "I cannot but I will tell you what I plan to do to them," he told them. "Your honor demands that you show us respect for saving your kingdom Rin if it was not for us your little bubble would be nothing," yelled Melin. "True but I am saving my honor by sending you all back to the land without you having to use you powers seeing how you are all to weak to fight back with your full potential," Rin replied. "Rin if you don't release my daughter and my friends take my word that we will be on you like heat to a flame," said Eriol his voice very cold. "I'm sure but by the time you try to come back I will have completed what I set out to do," he said. "My father plans on using your beautiful fiancées to reincarnate my mother with the soul she left us when she died," Nari told Syaoran and Ryu who paled at the news. "As for your fiancées my sister and I will be marrying them," Ashton told Haruna and Simon. They began to struggle more. "Now that you know we are at liberty to let you go," said Rin stepping up to the stone the group was on. He raised his staff and slammed it into a hole in the stone. "We'll have you personally," Syaoran told Rin on his and Ryu's behalf. The king smirked and in a flash the stone was empty. "Well lets move on we have two wedding and a resurrection to do," said Rin as he walked back towards the castle. The company of soldiers and the captured followed behind.
A flash on the beach interrupted the late evening walks of the villagers. Syaoran was the first to wake. With his eyes full of hurt he stomped off by himself. "Syaoran come back we have to find a way to get them back," yelled Tomoyo her eyes quickly filling with tears. "How?" he asked sending her a weak glare due to the tears also filling his eyes as he went off farther by himself. "What's wrong why did he say that?" asked Melin. "He can't feel her anymore neither can I," said Eriol his eyes closed in concentration. He opened his eyes to look at Simon and Haruna. "I envy your bonds to her but we don't have one that strong," said Simon his voice extra soft. "We can feel them for up to ten miles but any farther we lose them," said Haruna as tears leaked from her eyes. "We have to do something," Ryu said in frustration. "Yea but what we don't even know where to look not to mention that we are as weak as newborn kittens," said Melin her anger starting to show. Eriol motioned for Ling and the young man quickly and swiftly took his fiancée somewhere to blow of the steam. Tomoyo broke down into a sob she tried to hide but it didn't work. "We need to regroup soon as everyone is rested enough so we can figure something out," said Eriol looking at what was left of the group. They all nodded in agreement before going off. Eriol carried Tomoyo away. Ryu went to share his pain with Syaoran. Haruna supported Simon.
Melin & Ling POV
Melin kept stomping until she legs began to feel weak. Then she collapsed into the sand. "It's not fair," she wailed into Ling's shirt. He just kept stroking her back. "What's not fair Melin?" he asked trying to make her talk about her problems. "They have been through too much. The rivalry, me, the separation, the time, all those others who've wanted a piece of them and when they are finally happy this journey comes to test their bonds," she cried. Ling knew she was now talking about Sakura and Syaoran. "Melin everything will be ok," he told her his voice soothing. She looked up. "I know it will. Tomoyo and I have done too much work to let some royal pain in the back do this to them. I had to fight off most of the girls that went after Syaoran as did Tomoyo even though we never let them know we did," she said drawing in deep breaths. "Melin you and Tomoyo's work was a complete success when Sakura said yes to Syaoran's proposal now we have to be the glue and keep them together," he told her. Melin smiled at him. "That's another reason why I said yes to you Ling Chow. You are the only one that can cut though my temper like it's butter," she said smiling at him. "That's because your smile makes me melt," he told her. Melin smiled at him. "That made no sense but I loved it anyway," she said laying her head on his chest and glared out into the ocean.
Simon & Haruna POV
"You know I what?" asked Simon. "What?" Haruna asked her voice soft. "I think the ones who are suffering the most are Sakura and Syaoran," he said. "How can you say that?" she asked. "I asked Melin one night how Syaoran and Sakura got together being complete opposites and she said it took years not love at first sight like it happened with most of our group," he said. "I see what you mean but we'll all be back together again," said Haruna her eyes brightened. "If Sakura and Syaoran could survive that long all the long not knowing if the other felt the same we can do it knowing they are counting on us," she said. "Yea knowing them they are going to make their little plan as hard as possible," said Simon. They continued to talk of their friends' antics since they had known them.
Tomoyo & Eriol POV
"How are you doing?" Tomoyo asked Eriol as they walked down the beach. Eriol looked up surprised. "I should be asking you that," he told her squeezing her hand for comfort. Tomoyo shook her head. "Eriol next to Syaoran you have the strongest bond with Sakura. You are her father as much as Fugitaka is that's why I asked. You may hid it from everyone else but not me," said Tomoyo. Eriol sighed. "I can't feel her anymore its like she is dead to me even though I know she is not. All her life I had felt her without truly knowing it was her so it is like losing my only daughter," said Eriol his voice rough. "Oh Eriol she will be ok and by now she is waking and giving the king what he deserves she will make it back to us you just wait them you can give them a piece of your mind," said Tomoyo brightly. Eriol looked at her and kissed her forehead then her nose. "Tomoyo you are truly a star that outshines all the rest, as for me getting to Rin I'll let Syaoran and Ryu take care of him," said Eriol as he finally kissed her lips. Tomoyo sighed and smiled as they continued to regain their power back.
Ryu & Syaoran POV
Ryu and Syaoran sat in silence on the rock. Soon Syaoran broke the silence. "So how long have you and Kimari known each other?" he asked. "Since we were twelve but we been together since her thirteenth birthday," said Ryu looking at Syaoran for the same question. "We started off as rivals when we were ten by the time we were eleven I had fallen in love with her. I told her but I had to return home before I got her answer. Then last year we were bought back together to train and we got together a few weeks ago we were forcefully engaged before we came on the journey," Syaoran explained. "Wow I was able to propose to Ki but the time she was fifteen but I didn't have all the pressure that you have," said Ryu using her nickname for his fiancée. "What does Kimari mean anyway?" asked Syaoran. "In her native land it means Angel. She's never been there but her grandmother was and her parents named that after her grandmother," said Ryu. Then smiled. "Everyday she woke up she would bound into my room and jump on my bed and greet me the same way 'Good morning my dragon' she's called me that since were well little. I used to be the dragon that protected the princess and I still do," he said. "I know what you mean with the nicknames. My name means Little Wolf and Sakura greeted me the same way as Kimari greeted you except that I usually have to wake her up," said Syaoran smiling at the thought. "Sakura means cherry blossom in Japanese right?" asked Ryu. Syaoran nodded. "But I use her Chinese nickname Ying Fa which also means cherry blossoms," said Syaoran. Ryu nodded. "We'll lets get back I think we're ready," he said. Syaoran nodded. "If they aren't I sure am I need her back in my arms," said Syaoran standing helping Ryu up. "I follow you there," said Ryu. Syaoran turned to Ryu. "Thanks I've never been able to talk to anyone besides Sakura like that until recently and still never that much," he said. Ryu smiled at him. "Same here. I've never had a brother," he said slowly. Syaoran smiled at him. "I think I could use one with as many sisters I have," he said. They share a brief hug as they made their way back to the group with new bond between them.
"Ok now that we're rested we need to come up with a plan," said Syaoran. "I know no one in our group has power over animals do any of you?" he asked Haruna, Ryu, and Simon. Haruna and Ryu shook their heads. Everyone looked at Simon. "Well sometimes I can here them but I've never asked them for anything. "Do you wanna try?" asked Tomoyo her voice understanding but her eyes sad. "I'll see what I can do," he said as they all wadded into the water and swam a little ways out. Simon went out a little father after a few moments of treading water they felt something below the surface. Something big. "Simon is that you?" Ryu called to his friend. "It's a new friend of mine," he called to them as a very large whale broke the surface. "We're riding inside it?" asked Eriol as the whale opened its mouth and began to suck in water. Simon turned and smiled before swimming into the whale. The others followed him wearily. "All in the name of love," Syaoran muttered as he too was sucked in.
