Chapter 8 ---Oh, How I wish

----The kingdom as invited everyone in the village to come to the Prince's Ball. But they didn't say Prince Syaoran, so Sakura didn't know who the Prince was. All she knows was that if she go she may see her brother, Touya and Syaoran. She was happy about this, she wish to met the prince but she wasn't thinking about that. She wanted to go to the Ball, and not let her evil stepsisters and stepmother find out about it.

" Hm, oh, how am I going to go? They would just make me work a lot more than usual. They're just going to keep me busy until the Ball is over." Sakura said to herself, while looking out her window. Her window gave a nice view, you can see almost the whole village and best of all you can see the castle from up there. She sat next to the window for some time and watches the stars twilights across the sky.

------At the Castle

"Syaoran?" The Queen knocks on his door. She opens it and saw he wasn't in his room, there was also no note so he must have been in the castle. "Where is that boy?"

The Queen walk down the hall and went down stairs. But what she didn't know that Syaoran was in his room the whole time. He was hiding behind the door, when she mother open the door, she didn't see him cause he was right behind the door. Eriol was in his room too. He was under the bed.

"Whoa, that was close." Eriol said. "So, who is she, I mean I know you seem very happy about his Ball, but what I don't understand is why?"

"I am not." Syaoran whisper. "And keep you voice down or she come up here again."

"Fine," Eriol now lowing his voice. "So, is there a special someone or not?"

"There isn't." Syaoran said, lying. "And beside, I don't' want mother coming in here telling what to wear, sheech."

Just before Eriol was about the say anything. They both hear a voice and Syaoran pointed to the hidden door.

"What? It's just a." Eriol whisper, "Oh." They both got in quietly and close it. Lucky Syaoran carve a peek hole so he can look who was in his room before going in.

There was a voice and the door was open. "Miss, have you check the bedroom. You may never know if they were hiding!" One of the servant can into their room. "So, it's Prince Syaoran and Prince Eriol, am I right?" "Yes, I'll help too." Syaoran's mother shows up and they search his room. "Ok, I've check everywhere, they don't seem to be in this room."

"Hm, maybe they might be in the."

Syaoran and Eriol was shock and Syaoran stared to push Eriol so he would go down the stairs. "Hurry or she'll know that this was a hall." He whispers.

"Ok, ok, ok, don't need to push." Eriol said in a low voice.

"Stop. They can't see up if we just stand here." Syaoran said.

"THEY COULD BE IN THE KITCHEN, have you check that?" the servant shouted with joy.

"Good thinking. Let's go see." And they both left.

"Whoa that was even close." Eriol said breathing heavily.

They both went up to the hidden door and looked inside. There was no one in there. But Syaoran didn't want to go in. He feel like it was a trap.

So he pulled Eriol's arm and rush him down stairs to the hidden door of the kitchen. There was another peek hole. His mother wasn't there. The think was that Syaoran and Eriol was the only one who knows about this hidden hall of stairs.

"It's a trap, I guess we'll just spend the night here until they fall asleep." Syaoran said.

"But what about food?" Eriol asked.

"Here." Syaoran open a stone and inside there was some food that he store inside.

"Are you sure it's ok to eat this." Eriol said in a disgusted way.

"Yes, I just put them in just in case."

------------Back to Sakura

"Oh look mama, there's a invitation for every girl in the village to met the Prince and only than will the pick a bride. Oh I need to go. I have to, we need to go and pick a gown for me to wear!" Hilda shouted.

"I would too, I mean who won't fall madly in love with a face like mys." Gilda said in a sweet way.

"Please the only one who will be with the Prince will be me and as for you, I ask a farmer would probable fall for a face like yours." Hilda said in disgust.

"Now, now, my dears. We will all have a change either way, one of you will marry the prince. Sakura, I want you to clean ever clothes that Hilda and Gilda have. Also watch the house, we'll be gone shopping and no funny business!" She shouted at her and they all left.

" THEY PIG HAS LEFT THE BULIDING!" Sakura shouted through the hall.

"YAY, WHOA, I'M TIRED" Many of the servants said.

Sakura went outside and found Tomoyo outside.

"Tomoyo, hi" Sakura smiled, "What's wrong?"

"I have to go to the Ball and I wish you could go with me. I so wanted to make a beautiful gown for you, it's just so like you." There were stars in her eyes now. Sakura sweat drop.

"Ah, it's ok really, I'm coming, I just need a way to get there without them knowing. That's all."

As soon as the day past and night came the Ball. Hilda and Gilda was all dress up. They both have too much make up on and their dress is awful. Hilda was wearing a bright hot pink that seems like it may blind a person. Gilda was wearing a nice dark blue gown, but it seems too big for her and may her looked almost fat. Sakura was doing chores and was almost crying too cause they just kept her busy and soon they left.

"Oh, how I wish I can go." Sakura said to herself. Soon Kero and Yue came barking at her. "Huh, how did you two get here?"

Soon there was a glow of light from the pup and Kero turn into a big lion with wings and Yue turn into a guy with long sliver hair and with wings too.

"Hi Sakura, I'm your, Ak hm." Kero said in a girly way. "Sorry," Back to normal voice. " I'm your god ah, I don't know if it's god father or god lion, what do you think Yue?"

"Who cares, all I know we're here to grant your wish." Yue said.

"Hey, HOW COME I'M WEARING A DRESS?" Kero shouted. Kero looked at his dress and started to get really mad, he not in his true form but in a stuff animal form.

"Forget about that. So you wish to go to the Ball, than very well than." Yue was about to do something but than.

"NO, WAIT!" Kero shouted. "She can't go like this, are you mad? Hm lets see."

"Fine. Take your time." Yue said, he finally hides his wings cause it keep hitting Kero when he fly by it.

"I got it. Let's go outside where it's better to do magic." Kero said. They all went outside and Kero who has a wand and point at Sakura and she was no longer wearing a dirty old servants dress but a fine lovely gown. (Can't tell you how the gown looks like. See next chapter about it. ^_^)

"It's lovely, thank you." Sakura said and gave Yue and Kero a hug. " Ah, how will I get there?"

"A carriage, of course. Yue." Kero looked at him and there rise a beautiful golden carriage and strong white horses. "And to repay me, you can give me some cake."

"Ah there's some cake in the kitchen, but how about my chores?" Sakura asked.

"It'll all be done with a little of magic." Yue answered.

"Ok," Sakura went and climb into the carriage and close the door.

"Oh, yeah Sakura." Kero shouted and she looked at him. "The magic would wear off by midnight. So if I were you, I get home as fast as I can. Also have a good time."

Soon Kero and Yue where gone as she ride off the Castle. Sakura was nervous, one, cause she might ran into the prince, two his big brother and three Syaoran.
