"Please seat down you guys, you must be exhausted," Shei fa pointed to the sofas. "Just place your luggage down and seat, hahawe will see you guys later. As for Xiao Lang, Eriol, Shara and Kenneth, please come with me."

They all nodded and placed their bags near the fire place. Sakura, Tomoyo, Kee and Christian sat down while Xiao Lang, Eriol, Kenneth and Shara walked with Shei Fa. There was another huge door with a dragon drawn on it by the far left of the room and they entered there. Sakura and the others let out a huge sigh…..

"Finally!" Sakura exclaimed. She placed her butt on the soft sofa and slid her back slowly.

"Hmm," Tomoyo agreed as she closed her eyes for awhile. Kee looked at them and uttered.

"You guys seem pretty tired out."

They all gave her a nod, including Christian.

"You have no idea," he said. She sighed and took out her mp4, plugged it into her ears and soothed herself with music.

"Hmm," she hummed along.

Christian smiled as he sunk himself on the left sofa. Kee occupied the right sofa while Tomoyo and Sakura the sofa in between.

"This sofa is sure soft," Sakura muttered.

"Uh-huh," Tomoyo replied softly. Kee sighed at herself and closed her eyes.

"They seem to be having a nice relaxing time," Shara murmured, peeping at them. "I envy them!"

She sunk her back on the door and sighed. "What are we here for anyways?"

Shei Fa looked at them and crossed her arms. "What the heck are you guys wearing?" She looked at them head to toe.

They looked at themselves as well. They were wearing brown cloaks around their bodies. They laughed nervously.

"Well?" She waited for an answer. "Guys, you're supposed to wear your ceremonial clothes! Not brown cloaks!"

Xiao Lang stepped forward and explained, "Well, we are wearing them but we can't just walk around wearing them, in Japan."

"Yeah, Xiao Lang is right," Eriol agreed. "We're gonna look like clowns there."

"Uh-huh," Shara nodded. Kenneth gave her a slight nod. Shei Fa sighed.

"Well, you're not in Japan now," she replied.

"Hmm, no choice," Xiao Lang uttered. He looked at them and nodded.

"Kawaii!" A female screech was heard from a huge door.

"Wha-!" Christian exclaimed and stood up. "What the heck….."

"Tomoyo, what was that?" Sakura asked, tugging her arm like a small child.

Tomoyo replied to her with all honesty, "I have no idea."

"Sheesh, what is it with the Li gal?" Kee murmured and rubbed the back of her head. "I think my eardrums shattered."

"What was that all about?" Tomoyo asked. Sakura stood up and looked around.

"I was just about to ask that," she replied. Christian stood up as well and rolled his eyes.

Kee sighed and shook her head. She hated shouting more than anything.

"You think everything's fine?" Sakura asked. Tomoyo nodded.

"She shouted 'kawaii' no aah! So it's ok," she replied.

"Hmm," Sakura nodded.

Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

"Ane!" Xiao Lang cried. "Shut up will you!"

Shei Fa clasped her hands and had stars in her eyes. "Oh boy….."

She ran to Xiao Lang and hugged him tight; she rubbed her cheeks unto him. "You look so cute in your ceremonial clothes Xiao Lang!"

Xiao Lang pushed his sister's cheeks from him. "Argh! Get away from me!"

Shei Fa smiled and went to Eriol. "You look kawaii as well."

"Oh no, please no…." Eriol murmured. Shei Fa puffed her cheeks and hugged him tight.

"Kawaii!" She exclaimed.

"Onii-chan, I think we better run before she targets us," Shara whispered. Kenneth gave her a slight nod and they slowly made they're to the door.

"Xiao Lang, get your sister off me," Eriol pleaded.

"Don't look at me!" He replied. Then, Shara and Kenneth opened up the door and Shara shouted.

"Run!" She exclaimed as they ran from Shei Fa.

"What the hell?" Kee uttered.

"Stampede?" Tomoyo muttered.

"What in the name of my pet dog?" Christian said. Sakura bent her head.

"Huh?"

The four stopped running and panted.

"That was close," Shara murmured. The others gave her a nod.

"Yup, you said it!" Xiao Lang replied.

"I can't agree more," Eriol nodded.

"Right," Kenneth added quietly. While talking about how they escaped Shei Fa's evil clutches, they didn't know the several people we're looking at them.

"Eriol?" Tomoyo murmured. A certain teen with short azure hair looked to where the voice came from. He smiled and walked near. She was looking at him, pertaining to what he was wearing…..

"Tomoyo?" He uttered. Tomoyo shook her head and smiled.

"Gomen," she replied. "I was just….."

"Looking at what I'm wearing?" He continued. Tomoyo nodded meekly.

"Well, it's the first time, errrr, I ever saw a suit like that." She responded. Eriol patted her on the shoulder and smiled.

"Let me guess," he put his index finger under his chin. "You want to be a designer right?"

Tomoyo's eyes widened. "Ho-how'd you know?"

"Well, Kyomi wants to be one as well and well, you have that same spark in your eyes as her, when it comes to new clothes," he explained. "Mostly, I was just lucky that's all."

Tomoyo smiled gracefully and nodded, "Nice hunch then."

Eriol nodded as well, "I guess so."

"But you know what," Tomoyo uttered and circled around him, looking at him from head to toe, "It does look good on you."

Eriol looked at what he was wearing as well, Hong Kong is a very humid place and well, it's hard to wear something like that on a summer day there. It would be almost like hell. He just gave her and smile.

"Thanks," he looked at her as well. "Looks good on you as well, my lady." He uttered and bowed before her gentleman like. Tomoyo giggled and smiled. "Why thank you sir. But really, it does look good on you, I'm not lying one bit."

"Really?" He asked. "Looks exotic to me." Tomoyo chuckled softly; her voice ran to Eriol's ears, melody of his life. "Tomoyo……."

"Oh don't say that," she replied. "Who ever made this is so my idol! He's got great fashion sense you know. And besides, it's made of silk, soft silk." She walked around him again. "The colors match perfectly, blending the new colors with the ancient Chinese style is so cool! The Yin Yang sign at the back makes it more wonderful. Small details like the black ribbon around your pants make a difference and it makes it look more, well, uhm, how do I say this……….. unique!" She put her hand over his shoulder and started to blabber again. "It's real fine silk! He's really got the taste I want. He's used his imagination on this. The black ribbons at the end of the sleeves are nice; they add a lot of, well, character to it! The Chinese thing over the silken robe is awesome, it gives it a more ancient effect, and the one in your waist does so as well. The shoes match perfectly, where does this guy get his inspiration! He's got the….."

"Calm down Tomoyo, calm down," Eriol laughed a bit. "You're getting a bit too over excited here."
Tomoyo sighed and smiled, "Guess so, but what you're wearing is totally awesome!"

Eriol patted her on the shoulder and smiled, "Ok, ok, I get it with all the fashion stuff, you should be talking to Kyomi about these things, and she won't stop listening to you. Tomoyo nodded and smiled as well.

"Ok then," she replied. Then, Eriol placed his hands over her shoulders and smiled.

"What about you?" He asked with a smile. "You look astonishing to me……"

"Wha-what?" She uttered while a faint blush of pink covered her. "Er, thanks…."

"Just saying the truth here," he replied. "You will always look good in my eyes, Tomoyo……….. that'll never change….."

Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

"Xiao Lang?" A teen with short auburn hair and emerald eyes uttered. Xiao Lang faced her and blushed small tint of pink; she was staring at him with amazement.

"Wha- what is it?" He asked. She shook her head and walked hear him.

"Sorry," she replied. "It was nothing."

Xiao Lang smiled at her and nodded, "Whatever you say."

Sakura looked at him from head to toe, what he was wearing was far off the boundaries of different kinds of clothes that she could see. It was one of a kind indeed. She couldn't say anything about it.

"Uhm," she stated. "You look nice."

Xiao Lang looked at himself, actually for him it seems a little silly. He was wearing a green hat, puffed white pants and green suit over it, with small bells at the end of his sleeves. He looks silly for him.

"Really?" He chuckled. "I think I look silly in these clothes." He replied while rubbing the back of his head. Sakura shook her head and put her hands before her.

"Iie, it really looks nice on you!" She cried. Xiao Lang smiled at her gently making her blush lightly. "Kawaii…."

"So, what do you think of Hong Kong?" He asked. Sakura looked around the view and smiled.

"Well," she started. "From my point of view, Hong Kong is a splendid place!"

Xiao Lang smiled once more and nodded, "That's good to here from you Sakura."

Sakura nodded, she smiled at him and looked around the place. "This place is soo awesome!"

Xiao Lang walked to her and patted her shoulder. Sakura faced him; her eyes met his, his amber eyes looking straight at her with a small smile on his handsome face. He was the most 'beautiful' person she met in her life.

"Xiao- Xiao Lang," she muttered with a small blush.

"Thanks about the house Sakura," he murmured to her. "You look great too, like this house; actually, you look much more beautiful."

Sakura totally flushed! Her face was pure red; she looked pretty much like a tomato. But, Xiao Lang just smiled at her and held her shoulders. She blushed some more if she could.

"You look nice in your dress Sakura," he uttered. "Very much….."

"You-you too Xiao Lang-kun," she tried to mutter.

"Thanks….."

"Christian-kun!" Shara yelled and ran to him. Christian's eyes were widened. She was not the kind of person to wear something like that, is what he had in mind. But, maybe he was wrong. She reached him and smiled. "Ni Hao!"

"Eh?" He asked, he was looking at her, she was childish and she didn't care. Well, what about him?

She smiled, "It means 'hello' in Chinese silly!"
Christian shook his head and nodded, "Ha-hai."

Shara looked at the other way and blushed a small tint of pink, "You-you look nice, Christian-kun."

His eyes widened once more and faced the other way, "Thanks, yo-you too."

Shara smiled and looked at him, "Ne, Christian-kun, what do you think of Hong Kong?" She asked eagerly.

Christian sighed and nodded, "It's a very nice place, but humid unlike Japan."

"Yeah, it's seems to be much more Summer here than Japan, ne?" She asked again. Christian nodded, for him, talking to her was something much more than just a small chat. Yes, something more than that………

"Hai, very much," he replied with a smile, "And Xiao Lang's house makes it more amazing."

Shara nodded, "Yup!"

"Say, don't you guys have a house as big as this?" He asked. Shara crossed her arms and nodded.

"Hai, demo, it's nothing compared to this." She explained. "You see, we have 3 main family branches, de Lavia, Hiiragizawa and Li. The other branches come up if a woman from one of the braches marries an outsider. It is not prohibited though a lot of the family members prefer to be married to their own kind."

"Wait, wait, wait," Christian stopped. "What do you mean by their own kind?"

"It means like their cousins and so," she answered. "Like Xiao Lang's mom and dad, they're both from the Li family branch."

"Is that even in the law?" Christian asked. Shara nodded.

"Well, that's what people in royalty do most of the time," she stated. "They have too much pride that no one from their family must marry one of them, except for being siblings."

"Oh, ok….."

"My mom was a Hiiragizawa when she married my dad that was a de Lavia, see? (I'm not that sure, be cause I remember putting something about Kaho and Shara's mom being cousins or sisters? Please tell me cause chapters here in my pc, well, uhm, just tell me!) And Eriol's mum and dad are both Hiiragizawas, so, that's what our family really is like."

"Wow," he said with awe. "People I know in the Philippines aren't like that."

Shara asked, "Really? Please tell me about them!"

"Well, in the Philippines, it's kinda like: Fight for the one you love." He said.

"Really?" She asked. "It would be really nice if I could go there!"

"It sure will be….."

Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

"de Lavia, this house sure is huge." Kee uttered as she looked around but her eyes were still serious. Kenneth nodded with her.

"Our house is nothing compared to this," he replied. Kee sighed and crossed her arms.

"Hmm…." She murmured. Kenneth smiled lightly and patted her shoulder.

"Well, you won't be seeing Keri here though." He uttered. Kee faced him and raised an eye brow.

"Keri-kun?" She asked. "Yeah, I guess so. He's waiting for me there now."

"How'd you know?" He asked.

"Well, it's just me." She replied.

"You know, I'll be missing that problem bye mountain of yours."

"It's not mine, it's for everyone."

"Honto? I can't believe you're that generous."

"Stop teasing me." She replied and looked at him from head to toe. "Nice suit."

Kenneth bowed, "You too, suits you nicely."

"Huh?" She asked. No one has ever told her that what she was wearing suits her nicely, no one at all. Saying that she looked nice was something she'd hear almost every day from all her boy fans but, he said something different. She nodded, "Arigato."

"No prob."

A female with long raven hair cast her eyes upon the group of teenagers.

"It seems that they're here…." She uttered. Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

A/N: R&R, sorry for the boring Kee and Kenneth chapter place. Well, don't worry; everything will change in Hong Kong!
