BNB: You know, I think I might just switch the couples around…Just Kidding!
Ken: It does seem like Eriol flirts a lot in this story. I mean, Tomoyo, Sakura, Ka-
BNB:Shush!
Phoenix: Save the birdies!
Ken & BNB: *.*' Okaay…
Phoenix: Question, does Eriol seem like a flirt? Will BNB & Ken go to jail for cruel treatment of ccs fans? Will they kill the person who screwed up the format last chapter? Find out on the next chapter of OWM!
Ken: Wow, that sounds like a story.
BNB: Sure, whatever. Oh yeah, I keep forgetting but remember now. Thank you Vi3tBaBiI and SakuraDayz for reviewing. Now on chapter 6
Disclaimer: Cardcaptor Sakura belongs to Clamp but she will soon conquer the corporation (or wishes to) and supports Rage Against the Machine.
Chapter 6: Legendry KatakisGeneral Ikumori gave a criticizing glance at the two figures battling before him. The younger man was clearly the better of the two. He could block most attacks at the speed of lightening and always knew what his opponent was going to do next. Ikumori was proud that the younger man was his former student.
"Yamu Kinomoto, I give up." Touya allowed a small smile before releasing the hold he had on Jukyen. Ikumori patted the young man on the back before walking off.
"Lord Kinomoto, I've returned with your cousin." Yamazaki waved to Touya while dragging the ladies behind him. Touya smiled at Tomoyo as she approached him.
"So what trouble have you been up to lately?"
"Oh Toya, you're such a tease. You know I'm an absolutely innocent!" Sakura watched the stranger and Tomoyo converse. She ignored the giggling girls behind her back.
"Hehe, do you think Touya might propose to Tomoyo?"
"Come on Naoko, I don't think Tomoyo is Touya's type."
"But Rika, they flirt like Chiharu and Yamazaki."
"I wouldn't exactly call it flirting, more of an abusive physical nature, ne?" The two noble ladies giggled.
"Who is the girl with the boy haircut?"
"My slave." Touya raised his eyebrow.
"I thought you had more noble morals than that."
"I do. I just couldn't let Lord Matsumoto take the slaves."
"Matsumoto?"
"Yes, he was at the auction."
"I'm actually glad you bought slaves then, if it meant rescuing them from Matsumoto." Tomoyo brightened up.
"Yeah! And here's my new slave…er model!" Sakura blinked at she was pushed forward to meet eyes of a hawk." He barely glanced at her before looking over her shoulder.
"Yukito!" Touya jogged off towards his best friend.
Tomoyo sighed, "Men, always rushing off without a goodbye."
"I do not think that is true, Lady Daudoji."
"Lord Hiragizawa, you frightened me!" She stepped back from him and gave him a glare. He only gave that creepy smile that freaked her out.
"That was not my intention Lady Daudoji. I was going to ask where was my forgetful assistant went, but couldn't help comment on your musings."
Tomoyo sniffed, "its rude interrupting conversations."
"I believe to interrupt a conversation, you need a second party," he looked around, "and it appears your friends are standing too far for you to converse with. I believe talking to yourself is a sign of insanity, ne?" Tomoyo's face flushed.
"The only thing making me insane is you!" Tomoyo stomped off with her friends. He gave a knowing smile that would've made Tomoyo slap it off his face.
"Um, excuse Milord, is your assistant a young man with sliver hair?" Eriol stared at the girl before him. A vague memory passed through his mind, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
"Milord?"
"Yes. Excuse me for my daydreaming. I have quite a tiring day trying to find my assistant."
"Lord Kinomoto went off with a young man named Yukito in that direction." Eriol smiled down at the slave.
"You know, you have great potential in magic." Sakura's eyes widened. "Yes you do. I can sense it, but something is blocking it. Why don't you visit me and my assistants at the North Tower in two days?"
"I guess so…"
"Good! Good bye…uh…"
"Sakura."
"Yes, good bye Sakura."
"So Yukito, how is it working for that weirdo?"
Yukito laughed, "Lord Hiragizawa is weird, but being the successor of the Great Magician to the Emperor is something I like."
"Hmm." Yukito blinked. He placed his hands on Touya's shoulder.
"Hmm what?"
"Just Hmm." Yukito sighed, Touya always was moody, but he most of the time opened up to him.
"Toya…"
"Don't you have to work with Nakuru?" Touya made such a disgusted face that Yukito laughed.
"Yeah, Lady Akizuki is competitive. She's always giving me this look when she thinks Eriol isn't looking."
"I heard that she tried to kill you. Something about me being hers."
"Oh, that was nothing. Didn't you use to court Lady Akizuki?"
"No, that was Lady Mizuki. We broke up because of Nakuru."
"Didn't you love Lady Mizuki though?" Touya kept silent. Yukito sighed, back to square one. Touya was probably always moody and silent because of his past. All he knew was that Touya lost his entire family at a young age and blamed his great-grandfather for it.
"Yukito, I need you to be in the North Tower right now." Eriol smiled. "Lord Kinomoto, I believe Lord Amamiya is waiting for you in the Gray room." Yukito followed Eriol out the room.
Masaki traced his finger against the map. He took a sip of the green tea in his cup. It seemed the Li family had moved into their summerhouse in the south. Maybe he could send someone to their house their and—
"Lord Amamiya, I've come as you requested." Masaki grimaced. Maybe it wasn't a good idea to send for the boy. A man really, he mused, a man ready for marriage.
"I've requested your presence to ask that you do your duty to continue the Kinomoto line." Touya's face clouded. "You are twenty-five years old. Don't you think it is time to end this feud with the Li family?"
"You know I vowed to annihilate all of them before coming after you. There was evidence against them for killing my parents, and the emperor still did nothing. And you could have stopped this if you blessed your granddaughter to her marriage. You could have helped my father in his troubles. But no, you turned your back on them and forsaken their future." Touya's eyes sparked with life.
Masaki stood rigid and stared coldly at his great-grandson. He knew of Touya's feeling about him, but he never spoke out so freely. "Don't you realize I know this boy? You're not the only one suffering!"
Touya watched as Lord Amamiya seem to deflate before his eyes. He realized then how weak his great-grandfather had become. The emotions that played across this old man's face seemed to have calmed a growing anger that Touya nurtured. Not enough to stop him from going against the Li family in China though.
"Go Touya, go fight your feud. But know this, the Li family is numerous and you are only one man. I paid my consequences and so did your father. I not sure if I should tell you this but your father waged war with Li clan. They are the reason for his falling out with the court. Let's all hope you don't fail like your father did. I heard the Wolf almost beat you in the last battle."
"Yes, the Wolf…"
Syaoran gazed angrily at his wounded arm. That Kinomoto will pay for this. His face calmed to his steely composure and waited for Wei to treat his arm. People called them the Legendary Katakis in Japan, and yes they were. Syaoran would make sure that he killed Lord Kinomoto before the year's end.
