"This is so exciting! Right, my little Taka?" Nakuru Kinomoto asked her toddler. The little girl just replied with a huge baby smile. Her mother instantly cooed at her. However, it wasn't just the mother and daughter who were currently boarding the plane. Inside Nakuru's pocket was Clow Reed's incarnation's Sun Guardian, Spinel Sun.

"You'd better be careful not to flatten me, Ruby Moon!" Spinel said grumpily. "And Taka, stop tugging on my ear!"

"She doesn't understand you, Suppi," Nakuru said calmly. "And I am going to be careful. What do you think I am? An evil person whose only purpose in life is to make your life a living hell?"

Spinel eyed her warily. "Aren't you?"

Nakuru, however, replied with a shocked face, as if she was slapped. "Why Suppi, how could you! I'm just a person whose only purpose in life is to make your life a living hell, not an evil person whose only purpose in life is to make your life a living hell! I am by no means evil!"

Eriol's Sun Guardian scowled and silently retreated back to the pocket. Nakuru knew there was no talking to him for the rest of the flight.

"You really shouldn't annoy him so much, Nakuru," a tall man with dark hair said with a bored expression. Nakuru smiled up at her husband, Touya Kinomoto, as she took her seat in the first class area.

"But I live to annoy Suppi," Nakuru said with a pout. "Master created me for that sole purpose."

"Actually," a blue-eyes young man said as he entered the first class area. Only the three of them, plus Taka and Spinel, were in that area. "I created you for the sole purpose of assisting me in assisting Sakura. Annoying Spinel was only second."

The three heard a mumble before Spinel's head popped up from within Nakuru's pocket. "Master, that was an evil thing to say. You are encouraging her."

Eriol, however, just smiled sheepishly. "Sorry. I couldn't resist." Spinel scowled once again.

"The world is against me," he muttered as he went back inside Nakuru's pocket. Nakuru and Eriol were grinning while a corner of Touya's mouth as tilted upwards.

"By the way, why are we suddenly going back to Japan?" Touya asked.

"To see Sakura, what else?" Eriol asked innocently. "We all miss her." Touya, however, wasn't fooled.

"Spill it Hiiragizawa. I know you wouldn't do this for that." Eriol looked offended.

"Touya!" he said with a gasp. "How could you? I am sort-of yours and Sakura's father, you know!" Touya actually paled at the thought.

"Please don't say that... It sounds wrong." Eriol pretended to look serious and patted him on the back.

"Of course, son. I will never repeat it again."

"You just did," Touya retorted with a huge frown. "Now I know where Nakuru got some of her traits from... And I also wonder how Spinel has been able to live with you two so long."

The three heard a mutter of agreement from Nakuru's pocket.

"Master also wants to see Mistress Tomoyo who has been writing to him," Nakuru said slyly. Eriol smiled at her while Touya smirked.

"Of course. Why ever didn't I think of that?"

A few hours later...

"Remember what I said," Tomoyo whispered to Syaoran. The young man nodded as he and Tomoyo exited the car... actually, more like a limousine. Before Sakura could get out, Syaoran quickly rushed to her door, opened it for her and offered his hand. From the corner of his eye, Syaoran saw Tomoyo give a brief nod of approval.

"Thanks Syaoran," Sakura said with a beautiful smile at him. Syaoran smiled back, making the females who saw him swoon a bit. Yukito, who came just came out from the limousine saw this and almost scowled. To the normal person, a scowl might make him ugly. But on Yukito, it was enough to make females sigh.

Syaoran was happy to see Yukito's scowl, despite the fact that it was directed at him. This is actually very easy. Who ever knew Yukito could get jealous so fast? Or maybe it's Yue within him...

Actually...

'Why did we have to come anyway and see them so close together?' Yue's voice said in Yukito's mind.

We have to be polite to Hiiragizawa-san and come to see him... Aren't you also happy we'll see Touya again?

'Why did the Chinese boy have to come?'

Yukito took a moment to answer. He is related to Eriol Hiiragizawa in some way...

Yue didn't answer and Yukito knew that the Moon Guardian was sulking. Despite what the others may think, the Moon Guardian also knew how to sulk.

Too busy talking with each other, they didn't notice Sakura approach them until she waved her hand in front of Yukito's face. Yukito immediately snapped out of his reverie.

"Are you all right, Yukito, Yue?" Sakura asked, emerald eyes filled with worry. Yukito's heart almost skipped a beat. Did she know that he and Yue were having... 'discussions'... as of late?

"We're fine Sakura," Yukito said immediately, placing a cheerful smile on his face. "What made you ask?"

Sakura fumbled with the hem of her short skirt before answering. Both Yukito and Yue couldn't help but think how pretty and cute she was.

"Well... Um... Your eyes keep on going from brown to lavender-blue..." Sakura said, looking up at Yukito through her bangs. "And... Well... I just know that every time that happens, you and Yue are interacting."

It's either she is very perceptive or she really notices us more than we think, Yukito thought hopefully. Yue, however, wasn't as optimistic.

'I think it's the former...'

Yue, don't be such a pessimist, Yukito rebuked. He smiled at Sakura. "We are fine, Sakura. There is nothing to worry about."

"Are you sure?" Sakura asked, eyes wide as she stared deep into Yukito's eyes. Both Yukito and the Yue inside blushed at her beautiful probing eyes. It was as if only the three of them existed at that moment.

"I-I'm sure," Yukito answered, pitch higher than usual for some reason. He coughed and then gave Sakura a weak smile who was looking more worried. "We're all right Sakura. No need to worry."

Sakura took Yukito's hand with her own two and he blushed harder. Sakura gave it a gentle squeeze. She smiled brightly at him, almost taking his breath away.

"I'm glad," she said simply and then tugged him towards the others. Yukito was blushing all the way. When they reached the others, Yukito looked at Syaoran. However, instead of finding Syaoran scowling or glaring at him, Yukito saw the Chinese lad's eyes twinkling with something... amusement and a challenge?

No one, except Syaoran, noticed Yukito's eyes suddenly turn cat-like and an ice blue color. Syaoran inwardly smirked.

The game was on!
