Dirty Dancing
A/N Thanx for all your reviews! I loved them all and I'm so happy you care what happens at the contest! I was very bored at the tournament because my mom made me sit in the lobby with her for every one of his games and one of them lasted 2 hrs and 15 minutes! Talk about boring! Anyway to those who were surprised about me having a twin brother and want to no what it's like… I hate sharing my birthday… which just so happens to be Monday, worst day of the week… well anyways, here's the chapter!
Disclaimer: I do not own CCS or this plot. The plot is based off the movie Dirty Dancing Havana Nights.
Last Time…
He picked the dress out of the box and looked at it. "I think she would look great in it mother." He told her quietly.
"She doesn't have to wear it if she doesn't want to. It's pretty old, but I thought Daidouji could up-it a bit. You know make it more up-to-date." Yelan told him with a smile.
"I'm sure Sakura would love to wear it and Tomoyo would love improve it." Syaoran reassured her. He knew Sakura would like to wear this, especially after Tomoyo was done with it. Tomoyo had already told Sakura she was making a new dress for next week's finals. So he knew Sakura would wear it if Tomoyo gave it to her.
"Well good," Yelan sighed, "I didn't mean to seem cruel… she seems like a very nice girl. Maybe I should meet her sometime."
"I'll introduce you at the finals next week, I promise." He told her; happy she may actually give Sakura a chance.
"You better," his mother glared at him playfully.
For the rest of the day he and his mother had gotten along and his father and sisters came back and they all enjoyed the rest of the day together. The argument the previous night pretty much forgotten.
Chapter 10The Li's walked into the Palace. They were all excited to see if Syaoran would win the competition. A few days ago they had shown Tomoyo the dress and she had agreed to alter it and improve it. They still had no idea what it looked like because Tomoyo refused to let them see her work and they also didn't know how it looked on Sakura because Tomoyo wouldn't let her show anyone until New Years Eve.
They were all looking around at all the people and noticed there was more people here now then there was on Christmas Eve. Syaoran wasn't paying attention to all the people around though; he was looking for Sakura, which was pretty hard since there were so many people.
Finally, he saw her weaving through the crowd after spotting him and his family.
"Hey little brother, isn't that your partner over there?" Fuutie asked, after she too, saw Sakura heading over in their direction.
"Yeah… I think it is," Xiefa agreed when she looked in the same direction her sister and brother was looking.
"Kawaii! Look at what Tomoyo did to mother's dress!" Fanran exclaimed once she saw her as well.
"Yeah! It hardly even looks the same!" Feimei agreed.
"Well, I had no idea that the dress would turn out like that. It looks great!" Yelan smiled seeing the girl come over to them in the dress.
Sakura came over to them in the dress Tomoyo had given her. She had told her it used to be Syaoran's mothers and that she had done a few changes so that it didn't look so old fashion. It was now a light pink strapless dress that flowed out so it was easy to dance in. She was carrying some flowers in her hands. She was going to give them as a gift to the Li's. It was her mother's idea.
When Sakura got over to the Li's Syaoran took hold of her hand so he could properly introduce Sakura to his family like he promised his mother he would.
"Everyone, this is Sakura, Sakura this is my mother Yelan, father Ryuren, and sisters Fanran, Feimei, Fuutie, and Xeifa," he introduced her to everyone pointing to each person he was introducing.
"Hello Sakura, it's nice to finally get to meet you," Yelan said while taking Sakura's hand to shake it.
"It's nice to meet you too. And these are from my mother's garden, she wanted me to give them to all of you as a way of thanks for helping since it's so hard to for us to make money," Sakura told them as she handed them over some flowers.
Yelan looked at the flowers which she had to admit, were very beautiful. She could see that this girl's mother must really care for her garden. "Why thank you Sakura, these are very beautiful," she smiled at the girl.
"Wow these are so pretty!" the Li sisters exclaimed in unison.
"Well," Syaoran started, "I think we better get back stage and wait for our turn. Don't you think Sakura?" he asked.
"Yeah, it's almost about to start," Sakura nodded her head in agreement. The rest of Syaoran's family went to go find seats trying to make sure they wouldn't miss a bit of it.
They got there just in time for one of the workers to tell them what was going to happen.
"Okay, you're going to do the same dances you did last week except you are all going on stage one couple at a time. You all got that?" she asked. Everyone nodded their heads to let her know that they understood, "Good. Okay, first ones up are you guys," she pointed to a couple and the walked out on stage as the announcer introduced the couple to the stage.
The girl had told them they would be last so they figured they would watch the dances and see what their up against.
The second couple was up and Syaoran was in the bathroom. When he came back Sakura was standing by the stage looking out at the couple with a nervous expression on her face. He walked in front of her and placed his hands on her waist, "Are you okay?" he whispered.
Sakura looked at him and sighed, "I'm so nervous, both of those couples were so good. What if we suck out there Syaoran?"
"Hey, we made this far and we're not leaving without first place okay? We worked hard for this; you can't doubt us because you're watching our competition," he reassured her.
"I guess you're right," Sakura smiled at him, "I'm being silly aren't I?"
"No, seeing competition can make anyone nervous," Syaoran said trying to make her feel better, "And besides, you'll always be the queen of the Underground," he told her as he kissed her softly on her lips.
Sakura nodded her head just when the couple on stage finished dancing and it was their turn on stage. "Well, we're up…"
"Yeah, come on. We have to take our places on the stage,"
They got on the stage and the music started playing and they started their dance.
Sakura was looking out into the audience to see who was out there. That was when she got a huge shock. There dressed as a waiter and serving people was her brother Touya. She really wanted to know what the hell he was doing there. He never told her anything. She never thought he would ever even step foot into the Palace, he hated Batista and anything that had to do with him. She was so absorbed in wondering what her brother was doing there that she was almost losing focus on the dance. She got all her steps right but her mind was elsewhere.
They were doing great, the crowd was absorbed in watching these two until there was a loud noise.
Touya was serving a man, but since he wasn't used to waiting on people like Sakura was. She was the one who did the service jobs in the family. He was bringing the man water when he tripped and dropped the tray of water on the man while grabbing onto the table for support. The man was outraged at what just happened and shoved him on his side. But once he touched his side he felt something hard. He realized it was a gun.
"Hey everyone! He's got a gun!" he pointed to Touya. Everyone in the room started panicking and the music stopped and Sakura and Syaoran were standing there watching all the commotion.
Some of Batista's guards came running in with guns and came running over to Touya. He saw them coming and ran into the kitchen. Sakura was shocked to watch all those men chase after her brother but she had to get off the stage.
"Come on we have to go this way!" she called over to Syaoran dragging him off the stage.
"We have to make sure my family gets out!" he called back.
Sakura nodded as they ran around trying to spot the familiar faces. After awhile they found them looking around trying to find them.
"There you are!" Yelan shouted when she spotted them.
"You guys go ahead, I have to make sure my brother is okay," Sakura told them and turned to leave.
"Wait Sakura!" Syaoran shouted when he saw her leave, "What if something happens?"
"I'll catch up with you!" she shouted over her shoulder and disappeared into the crowd of rushing people.

"Tell us where the others are!" a guard was shouting at Touya.
Touya was on the ground in the kitchen, a few bruises on his face from the beating he had just gotten from the guards. They were now asking him where the other revolutionaries were and were holding him at gunpoint.
"Long…live… the…revolution…" he said between breaths. He was so tired. He fought hard but there was so many of them that he just couldn't go on.
Right when he was about to be struck down by one the guards he heard a crash. He looked over and that the guards were knocked on the ground unconscious with his sister standing there. 'She must have pushed them into the counters when they weren't looking' he thought to himself.
"Touya!" she shouted walking over to him, "we have to get out of here!" he nodded as she helped him up and ran to the door.
They ran out the door and down a path. Sakura was in the lead just a few feet ahead of her brother. But while Touya was running her lost his balance and fell on the ground. He got back and followed after his sister. He had to stay near her to make sure she was okay. He knew she could take care of herself she was strong. But he still worried about her.
They got to the town square when they finally stopped running. Touya, being the most tired was leaning against a lamppost when Sakura looked at him glaring.
"What the hell did you think you were doing in there? You could have killed someone!" she shouted at him angrily.
"It's different when you're in there! Those people killed our father!" he argued with her back.
"Yeah? Well you could have killed someone else's father!" with that she turned her back to him.
"Dad would be ashamed of you," Touya called over to her.
Sakura gritted her teeth. That did it. Something in her snapped and she lunged over at her brother. She grabbed a hold of his shirt. She looked like she was about to punch him when she pulled her right hand back.
Touya was looking at his sister with shocked eyes. He didn't think she would ever do anything like this.
Sakura realized what she was doing and her glare that she had on before changed into wide eyes of horror at what she was about to do. She pulled back and started walking backwards. After about five steps she stopped and shook her head over and over again. "No," she whispered, "he would be ashamed of both of us…" that time she spoke a little louder.
Touya widened his eyes at her words. The more he thought about it, he realized she was right.
"Go to hell!" she shouted and started to run away from him.
Touya finally came to his senses and ran after her. "Sakura!"
She turned around to see her brother running over. "What do you want now?" she asked with a frown on her face.
He took a deep breath and spoke, "You were right, he would be ashamed of us," he told her while putting his hand on her shoulder.
"Thanks for agreeing Touya, but I think I might have gone too far," was all she could say to that.
"No, you were right," he reassured her. Then he smiled, "And besides, you're a pretty good dancer," when he said that Sakura laughed.
"But you're a pretty lousy waiter," when she said that he chuckled at her but gave her a mock glare.
"Oh yeah? Like you've seen better," he told her stubbornly.
"Sure have. Me!" she gave him her beautiful smile and both laughed.
"Yeah, for once I agree with you," he started patting her back.
"I have to go," Sakura told him after a few moments. "I promised Syaoran that I would meet up with him to let him know I was alright."
"Okay… I think he's a good guy, he seemed genuinely sorry when I told him some of the things that we've been through." Touya told her so that she would know he didn't have anything against the guy she was seeing.
Sakura nodded and smiled glad that her brother accepted him. She then turned away and headed over to the hotel where Syaoran was staying.
