Chapter Twenty Four

:----------------------------------:

Yue

"How could it be you…I thought…I thought," Yue muttered when he felt a light fluttery kiss on his soft lips. "Shh…get some rest," the person continued, "You almost got caught out in the sun." Yue nodded his head and shut his eyes, it felt like it was all just a dream.

:----------------------------------:

The next morning, he awoke by the sweet aroma of freshly cut blood in front of him, without even caring he sucked on the sweet nutrient trying to fulfill his hunger. When he noticed the arm slowly turn white he looked up only to stare at the softest brown eyes. "Mika…" he mumbled. Mika smiled his brown eyes shining with delight, "I'm glad you're okay Yue…" with one last kiss Mika stood up to leave but Yue held him back. "I was out that night looking for you."

Mika felt tears well up in his eyes, "Really?" Yue nodded, "No matter how hard I try Mika…I can't forget about you…about us." Mika smiled, "Me too Yue…me too."

:----------------------------------:

The two had spent the night together, only caring about the other. But as the next night approached Yue realized he had to leave.

"How long have I been here?" Yue questioned while Mika stroked his long silver hair that seemed to gain its beautiful shine again. "10 days…why?" Yue froze, "Oh my god…Sakura!" Mika frowned, "Who's this Sakura." Yue grinned Mika was jealous of Sakura, "Don't worry, my heart only belongs to you. Sakura is like my sister. Also…she's Duke Syaoran's bride."

"You mean whore," Mika muttered hearing a lot about the couple." Yue snapped, "No bride…they're a real couple now. Even have a child." Mika looked up, "You mean that child I smelt was…" "Theirs," Yue finished nodding his head. "You want me to help you don't you?" Yue gave him the puppy dog eyes, "Please? I promised Clow I would protect her, I also promised myself, she's a sister to me Mika." Mika sighed, "What I do for love."

:----------------------------------:

Sakura

She eyed the woman in front of her carefully, her eyes were welling up in tears, "Please, please let my son go." Kaori laughed evilly, "Didn't I say the same things to you Syaoran!" Syaoran winced, "Kaori…let Kenji go, he's innocent!" Kaori shook her head, "Look at what you've done to my son! He'd rather help the enemy than his own mother! And you to Hino…you disappoint me! Don't you think I knew about your silly little meeting? We're soul mates Hino…I know everything!"

Hino stood up, "Kay…the baby is innocent, and you shouldn't drag it into our war." Kaori shook her head, tears streaking down as her hair flared up and her eyes became a blood thirsty red, "Let's see if you guys can kill me now." And with that she disappeared. "No…" Sakura muttered, "No!"

All went blank as she felt herself falling.

:----------------------------------:

Hino

"Syaoran…I have a preposition for you," Hino said as he slowly eyed his younger brother. "What makes you think I would trust you?" Syaoran asked bitterly. Hino looked away, "You just have to trust me if you want your wife back." Syaoran chuckled evilly, "And you won't back down on me? You won't set this up to get back at me all those years ago?"

Hino looked up, his green eyes held pure sadness, "I'm sorry…what's the past is the past Syaoran. Through these hundred years…I've realized something." Syaoran just smiled sarcastically, "And what's that onii-chan," he said with pure resentment.

"That there is nothing in this world that beats family," Hino replied. Syaoran was about to retort to that, when from behind Hino Jr walked forward. "Uncle," he mumbled softly. "Hino (Jr) you bastard!" Syaoran yelled remembering how he just walked out on him.

Hino shook his head, embracing his son, "No Syaoran…my son is right…we can't keep fighting or this war between us will never end. I understand that now…arigatou." "What are you talking about!" Syaoran yelled getting furious at the pair.

Hino Jr stepped up, "Syaoran…I left because I knew for sure than that my father had returned and mother too…I wanted, no needed them to change. You taught me this Syaoran. When I saw you and auntie Sakura with Kenji I realized…I missed my parents. I love my parents Syaoran…and if my parents are anything like you two, I knew they missed me too. I'm sorry…but here I am again. I…I was able to convince my father to come. We have a plan for you to get Sakura back."

Syaoran had no comment, "How can I trust you two though?" Hino sighed tiredly at his brother, "You can't for sure…you just have to have faith little brother…faith in family." Syaoran looked up, "What do you want me to do?"

Hino Jr sighed, "First…in three days I need you to go to the mansion." Hino nodded, "And than you have to make it look like we're really in a fight. But don't worry my son and I won't hurt any of you." Hino Jr sat down, "And than when okaa-san isn't paying attention you take Sakura and Takashi." "Takashi! You have him too?" Syaoran questioned. Hino nodded, "He came in the other day, and we had no choice but to capture him too. Are you up to it Syaoran?"

"I'll do anything to save Sakura," Syaoran proclaimed bravely, "Even if it risks me my life!"

:----------------------------------:

Sakura slowly regained her consciousness as reality soon came back to her, "Kenji…" she mouthed out softly. Syaoran held onto her tightly, "Shh, my love. We will get him back. I promise you." Sakura felt tears well up in her eyes, "What will she do to him?" "Eat him," Hino said simply causing the others to turn and stare at him.

"As you may realize by now, Kaori is the one with the special power, she wants to get stronger. And of course she would never eat her own child…so only other way is Kenji." Sakura stands up, with the help of Syaoran, "Than we have to get him back!" Syaoran nodded holding onto his wife, "Even if it means our life. I won't let her harm our son." Hino and his son nodded, "But what plans do you have? We have no idea where Kaori would be at a time like this."

Takashi, who had finally healed due to the blood the others had given him finally voiced out, "I think I may know." Syaoran eyes his friend, "How would you know?" Takashi shook his head, "You know how you were always on business away? Well during that time I would always watch your 'wife' for you. Making sure she didn't give us away you know?"

Syaoran nodded, "So where would she be?" Takashi shook his head sadly, "With that other guy I told you about the other day. The one I didn't recognize." "What other guy?" Hino Jr questioned? "The other person who also hates Syaoran…of course! How come I didn't realize it before? He also has both of mines and Kaori's power…of course she would go to him!" Hino proclaimed realization finally hitting him.

"Who?" Syaoran shouts, "Who else would hate me so much that would kill my child?" "Eriol," Sakura finishes for them. "Who's Eriol?" Kaho questions getting confused by the whole conversation along with Touya. "My ex boyfriend," Sakura explains slowly shutting her eyes, "God…I thought the war was going to end tonight…so why does it feel like it has just begun?"

Syaoran holds onto her tightly, "Don't worry, we'll get our son back Sakura. We'll get him back." Sakura nods her head slowly, "We have to."

:----------------------------------:

Kaori walks around tiredly as she watches the blue haired man holding onto the young child, "God are you finished with that yet! I want it now!" Kaori snaps trying to grab it only to have it pulled away. "No…we have to first lure Syaoran here…don't you want to get back at him?" Eriol questioned his night blue eyes shining with delight. Kaori nods her head but sits down tiredly, "But the wait…is UGH! What if they don't even come?"

Eriol smirks, "Trust me they'll come." Kaori nods her head, "Yes…I have to get him back for treating me this way…and that girl…" "Is mine," Eriol finishes for her, "Remember the deal Kaori." Kaori sighs but nods her head, "Fine…but I get the kill." Eriol waves her off, "As long as I get Sakura back…I don't care who kills him."

Kaori smirks laughing evilly, she was going to finally get her revenge.

:----------------------------------:

"So how long are we going to wait?" Touya asked the others around him restlessly. Sakura was now in her room asleep, tired from the days events. Kaho was still healing due to the heavy damage she had received leaving only the guys left in the living room. "The sooner the better, Kaori isn't one to wait around," Hino answers for them.

Syaoran nods his head in agreement, "I agree…I don't think the girls should come." Touya sighs, "Kaho and my sister isn't going to like that." Yue sighs leaning his head on Mika, "I suppose…but it's best for them. I don't want them getting captured again." Mika slowly strokes Yue's long silver hair, "Yes…but it isn't fair to Sakura."

"Damn straight it isn't!" Sakura comments as she walks down the marble stairs with a furious Kaho following behind her. "I agree with Saku!" Kaho proclaims her reddish brown hair flowing behind her. Touya sighs as he hugs his wife, "I don't want you getting hurt again. And you won't be fully healed if we leave tonight."

Sakura growls, "Than at least allow me to go! Syaoran this is our SON we're talking about…I will not let him stay in that whore's hands! And…and…I know they won't hurt me, not if Eriol is around." Syaoran thinks for a moment, everything she said was true…

Hino stands up, "Let's not argue about that now…we shall decide who is fit enough tomorrow. And I don't believe we have met. I am Hino Li…Syaoran's onii-chan." Sakura bows politely, "Arigatou…for helping Syaoran. He's told me everything…Hino onii-chan." Hino chuckles, "I finally have a sister in law…and she's a great catch little brother." Syaoran crosses his arms and grunts, but everyone could see a small smile growing on his face.

For once, him and his brother had finally been able to make peace. For once…he knew what a true family relationship was like for himself. Hino smiled and embraced his brother tightly, "I'm so proud of you." Syaoran chuckles, "Thanks…onii-chan." The others decided this was the best time as any to have a party. "Let's have a party you guys!" Kaho proclaims using her mind to send drinks to everyone, "A toast…to family!" They all raise their glasses of the sticky red liquid, "To family!"

No one knew for sure what was too come. Which side would win? Who will survive? And who…will die? Although these thoughts entered their heads…just for this night…just for tonight…they would believe that they could stay together forever.
