Syaoran frowned. "You and me used to study magicians and magic, do you remember anything about this power?" he asked.

"I'm afraid I don't remember. We'll have to wait until we get to Hong Kong." Eriol sighed.

Chapter Eighteen: Time To Depart

By: Ame-chan

Sakura woke up as the sun rays shone on her face. She opened her eyes and looked at the clock. It was already 9. She got up and headed to the bathroom to take a shower. She felt different. She felt some strange aura fill her body, but she shrugged it off.

She took off the necklace and set it carefully beside the sinkand took off her clothes. She turned on the shower and waited a few seconds for it to turn hot. She stepped in and let the water run down her body as she sighed. It was relaxing. She started to think about yesterday. That pendant seemed to draw her attention a lot. She didn't know why.

She turned the shower off and watched the mist float slowly out of the shower and fog the mirror. She wrapped a towel around her body, picked up her necklace and walked back to her room. She changed quickly and put the necklace back on. She walked out to the kitchen and made something to eat. She poured some cereal into a bowl as she yawned. She felt much better today.

The phone rang and Sakura went to go answer it.

"Hello?" Sakura asked.

"Hey Sakura, it's your big brother. I just wanted to tell you that we're going to Hong Kong tomorrow. Do you want to come?" Touya asked.

"Wow! You're coming too? Actually, me and Syaoran and the others are planning on going today. Should we pick you up tomorrow at the airport since we would be there already?" Sakura asked.

"I guess so...okay then, bye Kaijuu..." he snickered.

"I'm NOT a monster! Don't be so mean to mean, onii-chan..." Sakura pouted. Touya laughed.

"Alright, alright...bye then..." Touya replied and hung up. Sakura put the phone back.

Sakura walked out to the living room to eat and found that Syaoran and Eriol and Kuro was already there. Syaoran turned around and stood up.

"Sakura, sorry I'm telling you in such short notice but we're going to be leaving at around three today for Hong Kong. Me and Eriol have some important business with my mother." Syaoran explained. Sakura nodded.

"Onii-chan is coming to Hong Kong too. They're gonna arrive to Hong Kong tomorrow. Can we pick them up?" Sakura asked.

"Sure." Syaoran answered, sitting back down to watch the T.V.

"Syaoran, where's my luggage?" Sakura asked, looking around.

"Tomoyo already packed your stuff." Syaoran answered, without taking his eyes off the T.V. Tomoyo came out of her room all dress and she sat down with Sakura.

"How are you feeling Sakura?" she asked. Sakura smiled.

"I'm fine. Thanks for being worried though" Sakura replied softly.

"Of course! I wouldn't be you best friend for nothing!" Tomoyo smiled back. "Anyways...you should wear the new clothes we bought yesterday! You look so kawaii in them!" Tomoyo put her hands to her cheek and had stars in her eyes.

Sakura sweatdropped. "Yeah, okay..." She got up to get changed. After she finished, she came back out wearing a pink tank top that said "Ying Fa" on it in silver with Sakura petals on it, and she wore a jean skirt that reached mid thigh. She also wore a Sakura flower clip on her hair.

"Sakura! You look so pretty!" Tomoyo sqealed, jumping at her friend. Sakura blushed.

Even Syaoran thought she was quite pretty. Her eyes shone with happiness. Syaoran always had this feeling when she looked at him with those innocent emerald green orbs. 'I think I fell in love with an angel.' He thought.

After some compliments about how Sakura looked, they did some last minute packing, checking their packing list if they missed anything and then they packed their stuff in the trunks of Syaoran's car.

Eriol put his and Tomoyo's stuff in his car trunk and they headed off to the airport.

Sakura had never been at the airport before, it was so...big! She was so excited to go on the plane, and a bit scared at the same time. She looked around at the small shops full of souvenirs and watched the airplanes lift off. They were so big and it was noisy.

Since everybody was so excited, they weren't hungry. Syaoran was thinking about how to tell his mother about Sakura. And didn't his mother say before that they needed to discuss something too? He started to wonder.

It was 2:30 so they decided to their gate. They had to be checked for anything unusual by the security and then they headed off to board the plane.

Sakura started to feel nervous. She never flew in a plane before. Syaoran noticed and sat beside her.

"You okay? I guess you haven't been on a plane before." he smiled softly. Sakura smiled sheepishly.

"I never went anywhere...I never had enough money." Sakura whispered.

"Well then, this should be fun for you. Lifting off makes you feel light inside." he replied, looking out of the window. They were moving and Sakura jumped a bit. SHe grabbed onto Syaoran's arm and held it tight.

Syaoran jumped too from Sakura's sudden action but calmed down when he noticed Sakura was really scared.

"Don't worry Sakura. It'll be fine. Just an hour and then we'll be there." he tried to reassure her.

Sakura seemed to calm down, but she still stuck close to Syaoran. But Sakura had to admit that it was quite amusing when the plane started to fly into the air.

While Sakura looked out the window, Syaoran tried to sort out his feelings.

"I love Sakura. She just seems to be the person that fits in with my life. She's nice and pretty, her figure was so delicate and petit. ho wouldn't love her. But what if she doesn't have the same feelings as me?' Syaoran thought, watching Sakura smiled happily watching the clouds pass by. Syaoran smiled at her. She was the right one for him.

When they arrived, Sakura hopped off the plane and said, "You're right Syaoran! Flying on a plane wasn't that bad!" She smiled at him and he smiled back.

They entered the airport and looked for Wei, Syaoran's old butler.

"Master Syaoran, welcome back!" the old man greeted, when he spotted them looking around.

"Hello Wei. How's mother and my sisters?" Syaoran answered, giving a nice smile.

"Mistress Yelan is doing well. She would be pleased to meet your friends. Please come this way." he bowed and led them to the limo.

While Wei drove the limo to the Li mansion, Syaoran introduced everybody to him.

"Wei," Syaoran started. Wei looked at the mirror. "Yes, Master Syaoran?" Syaoran pointed at Sakura first.

"This is Sakura Kinomoto, Tomoyo Daidouji, and Kuro Shenn." he pointed everyone out. Wei smiled.

"Hello there, fine young people you are." he commented. They smiled at him. Wei was such a polite and nice man.

They arrived at the mansion. It was big...no...huge! Sakura stared at it and "ooh"ed. Tomoyo giggled.

"Even my mansion isn't that big." Tomoyo replied. Sakura nodded. (A/N: Sakura had been to the Daidouji mansion before.)

"Yeah, I would know. I AM the prince of China." Syaoran smirked. Sakura pouted.

"Don't show off!" she put her hands on her hips. Syaoran laughed.

"Fine, fine." he answered, walking to the doors. Wei went to the back of the car to get their stuff. Sakura came to help him.

"Here let me help you." Sakura insisted, grabbing a bag and taking it out. Wei was surprised. Nobody ever insisted on helping him. They were just nice to him.

"But Miss Sakura, you can let me do this. You go and follow Master Syaoran into the mansion." he replied, still really surprised.

"No it's really okay. Let me help you. It would make the work easier." Sakura smiled at him. "Please let me help. Besides there are a lot of bags to carry." Sakura continued as she hauled another bag out.

Wei smiled. 'Such a warm hearted girl. I'm sure Mistress Yelan will approve of her.' he thought. They finished taking the bags out and putting them by the main entrance.

"Thank you so much for helping me, Miss Sakura, please, this way to your room. Syaoran had picked for you already." Wei replied as he led Sakura to her room.

"You room is right next to Master Syaoran's. I think he has taken a liking to you." He smiled. Sakura blushed.

"Here you are." he said opening the door. It was big...even bigger than their dormitory rooms. Sakura was amazed as she stepped inside and looked around. There were two big windows beside her queen size bed and a bathroom to her left. There was a desk with a laptop sitting on top of it. She smiled brightly.

"If there is anything you need, I'll be in the kitchen." Wei replied as he closed the door.

Sakura walked over to the bed and flopped on top of it. It was so comfortable! She sat back up again and walked up to the laptop. Everything was plugged and all she needed to do was turn on the screen.

She was about to turn it on when there was a knock at the door. Sakura opened it and Syaoran was standing there smilimg.

"Syaoran!" Sakura blushed. He smirked.

"Hey Sakura, how do you like your room?" he asked, walking in. Sakura smiled again and walked to the window. She opened it and let the breeze flow in.

"It's wonderful!" Sakura gasped. Syaoran watched her as the wind flowed through her hair and the her features shone under the gaze of the sun. She was breath taking.

Syaoran cleared his throat and said, "My Mother wants to meet you." Sakura looked at him and smiled softly.

"Of course." she whispered. She walked slowly towards Syaoran and walked with him to his mother's study room.

Sakura walked in through the doors and saw a beautiful woman talking to Tomoyo and Eriol.

"Mother, this is Sakura Kinomoto." Syaoran introduced. Sakura blushed and muttered a hi.

Yelan smiled warmly and came to greet her.

"Hello dear child. I'm Yelan Li, SYaoran's mother. I am hoping that you'll enjoy your stay here." she smiled. Sakura had never seen such a beautiful woman like her.

Sakura smiled back at her. "I will!" She answered happily. Yelan smiled again, but this time, she noticed her necklace. Her expression changed.

"Are you Ying Fa?" She asked seriously. Sakura stopped smiling and looked at her, confused.

"What do you mean?" Sakura asked. Yelan pointed at her necklace.

"That is the pendant that Ying Fa had before she died. Sakura does mean Ying Fa in Chinese." Yelan looked at Syaoran. He stepped up and spoke.

"Mother, this is what we want to discuss about." Eriol nodded. Yelan gestured everyone to sit down.

"Then let's begin. I would like to sort some things out too. Especially with you, Xiao Lang." Yelan said seriously, sitting down. Every body sat down too.

"So let us begin." She replied.
