--Chapter 4--

--In Unfamiliar Grounds--

Amazement. Pure amazement! Syaoran could not feel anything but amazement and awe at the very size of the castle. It was probably five times the size of his castle. It made his castle look like a shack as compared to it. Also, the interior décor was also very stunning. A large pink chandelier made entirely of pink crystals and diamonds hung on the ceiling of the front hall. The floor was covered with a large, smooth golden rug which was handmade. Syaoran noticed the small, delicate designs of the Sakura petals decorating the rims of the carpet. He wondered how long it took for the person to finish such a precise piece. He then noticed that the floor was not tiles but a smooth marble. The marble had swirls and tints of pink in them.

Sakura looked at everything with dread. She was tired of seeing this. She never wanted to see this very hallway forever and here she was, standing where she did not want to be. She glanced at the two men beside her. She was not at all surprised at the look of pure amazement on their faces. Everyone who first stepped into the castle had the same reaction. Who wouldn't?! To see a grand marble staircase a few meters away from the front door which was not made out of wood but of gold would make anyone swoon in amazement. The pink ceilings and pink grained walls complimented the golden carpet and the pink tinted floor. It was stunning as it is. Sakura then heard footsteps. She tugged Syaoran's sleeve and nodded towards the staircase. Eriol and Syaoran turned and stared at the staircase, the three of them expecting someone to come down.

Surely, Prince Touya Kinomoto slowly descended the stairs with a large grin on his face. His face had the look of pure happiness as he fixed his eyes on Sakura. Syaoran eyed the Kinomoto Prince and his outfit. The Prince was wearing a dark red suit with 6 golden buttons at the front. Each of the buttons had a small Sakura petal carved into it. He had a black cape clasped on his back and he wore slightly baggy black pants in which the bottom was stuffed into his slick, shiny black boots. His black cape was attached to his left collar and is then joined to his the back of his right shoulder. -if you guys can't imagine this, check out Camus from Suikoden 2. His cape is clasped that way- His eyes hardened immediately when he saw Sakura's companions. He stopped at the last step and smiled.

"Welcome to the Kinomoto Castle, my dear guests," He said as he motioned Sakura to come nearer. Sakura came nearer to him and stopped right in front of the man.

"I am glad that you agreed to help me with this ordeal. You will be rewarded accordingly," Touya said as he smiled down at Sakura. He then averted his gaze to the two men who were awkwardly standing near the door. They were not sure of what to do.

"And who might these people be, Kinoto-san?" Touya asked politely, even though his voice sounded rather strained. Sakura gave him a large smile and walked back to Syaoran. She wrapped her arms around his waist and grin even larger. If only there was such things as sweat drops as if there were, there would be one large one on Sakura's forehead.

"Well, Kinomoto-sama, this man here is Shaoran Lee HaeYun. He is a Li servant and he is currently my boyfriend as well. The man with the glasses is Eriol Hiiragizawa and he is also a Li servant. He came along as he was my boyfriend's best friend," Sakura stated easily. Syaoran was pretty much surprised at how well Sakura could act under pressure. She was able to come up with such details in a matter of seconds and without stumbling upon her words. She was one great actress. Touya's hard face turned to one of understanding and he nodded.

"I see. Well it does make sense for your boyfriend and his best friend to tag along. Your boyfriend here might be too worried to let you stay here without his supervision for a week. Very protective," Touya said with a smile on his face. Syaoran gulped. He did say it with a smile on his face but all the while, Touya was glaring at Syaoran as he said that. His eyes clearly showed that he was not happy with his relationship with Sakura even though she was not really his sister. He then offered his hand to Sakura.

"Come, let me show you around the entire castle. You need to get used to the place and know where are the important rooms by heart," Touya said. Sakura slowly grab his hand and looked at Syaoran with unsure eyes. He merely gave her a hard look and a nod. Syaoran thought it was best they followed Touya. They would not want to blow their cover right when they just arrived.

oOo

"Well that is most of the castle," Touya said. Sakura gave a small sigh of relief while Syaoran had spirals for eyes. Eriol, on the other hand, was used to such long tours. Therefore, he stood pretty much normally and still had the look of amazement of his face. The reason as to why they were so tired was that the castle was enormous. The dining room itself could fit a hundred people with enough space to do jumping jacks. The distance from a certain room to another room takes ages to conquer. Yet every room was well furnished and beautifully decorated. Touya then gave them another smile. He was really creeping Syaoran out. He heard from many Lis that the Kinomoto Prince is a very unnerving man. He could easily make you feel uncomfortable and fearful of him. Now Syaoran knew why they said so.

"Come, you must be tired. I shall bring the three of you to your respective bedrooms," Touya said as he started to lead them towards the fifth floor. Sakura fell back slowly and walked beside Syaoran who seemed to be tired like hell.

"Are you alright, your highness? You seem out of breath," Sakura whispered as she gripped his arm. Syaoran merely nodded. He was tired from all the walking and seeing. He knew that the Kinomoto castle would be enormous but still, he hadn't expected it to be so huge that he would get tired after reaching the 4th floor. They ascended the stairs in silence. Eriol then fell in pace with them as well as Touya was seriously stomping ahead. They then stopped in front of a pink room.

"Well, this is Sakura's room. This will be your room for the week, Miss Kinoto," Touya said as he politely pointed to the pink door. Sakura bowed and thanked him politely. Touya looked at Eriol and pointed to a door across the pink one.

"That would be your room, Hiiragizawa-san. As for you," Touya trailed as he glared at Syaoran, "you will be sleeping in the same room as Miss Kinoto. I trust that you would not touch her as after all, your girlfriend's comfort should come first."

Syaoran gave Sakura a panicked look. Looks like they could not escape this one. They had to share the same room. Sakura gave Touya a sweet smile.

"Thank you, Kinomoto-sama. When will we meet the King and Queen of Kinomoto?" Sakura asked politely. Touya tapped his chin and thought.

"Well, they would be back by dinner. Thus, you should rest and shower up. I shall order the maids to bring you an outfit fit for dinner with the King and Queen. Please do remember that you should address me as 'brother' in front of them. I do not mind being address otherwise when the King and Queen are absent. Now I shall take my leave, I have many things to prepare," Touya said as he kissed the back of Sakura's right palm and left. Syaoran gave a large sigh of relief as Sakura fell to her knees in exhaustion.

"I was wondering when he was going to leave!" Syaoran exclaimed, his voice laced with exhaustion. Eriol then coughed softly, attracting the attention of the two other people.

"W-Well, Prince Syaoran Li, w-wo-would yo-you pl-plea-please expl-plain w-why am I here in t-t-the K-Ki-Kin-nomoto ca-castle with yo-you and Sakura-san?" Eriol asked. Syaoran groaned. He didn't explain the situation to Eriol and he just dragged him along. Thus, he sat on the floor beside Sakura and explained everything from the letter and the deal.

oOo

Eriol pretty much understood the situation and did not really ask many questions. He then merely went into his room, stating that he needed to rest. Sakura and Syaoran looked at each other and shrugged. They too decided to rest for a while. Opening the door, Sakura entered it and was not at all amazed at her surroundings. Syaoran, however, had his mouth open as he gasped. The room was practically 4 times as big as his at his castle. The bed was a king sized bed which was placed at the dead center of the room. The mattress was a light pink and the quilt was a hot pink. The pillows arranged on the head of the bed was all Sakura petal shaped. The windows was a large and had crystal clear glass with just a white curtain draped over it. The windows practically occupied the entire wall.

The ceiling was a beautiful cream colour with real Sakura petals, which were dried under the sun, pasted on the entire ceiling. It gave the room not only the feeling of nature but also the sweet scent of Sakura. The walls had Sakura petals printed on its cherry pink surface with red paint, making the Sakura petals red as blood.

On the right most wall, a large portrait was placed. The portrait of Sakura Kinomoto. Syaoran studied the portrait carefully. The princess had long auburn hair which was slightly curled and her eyes a beautiful jade. She had the brightest of smiles on her face and the slightest of blushes on her cheeks. She looked so gorgeous. Then Syaoran noticed something. Looking at Sakura and then to the portrait, his eyes widened. Sakura really resembled the Kinomoto Princess. It was no wonder that the Li assassins mistook her for the princess and Touya to ask her to act as the princess. It was as if Sakura was the lost twin of the Kinomoto princess.

"Isn't she beautiful? That is your future wife staring at us," Sakura said as she stared at the portrait with eyes filled with emotions indescribable. Syaoran merely nodded. He got to admit that the princess was very beautiful and also she looked like the kind who would never abandon anyone because of something. Then why...? Why did she left the castle just because of a betrothal? Syaoran knew that the entire arrangement had been done in secret and it had hurt him a lot when his mother told him about it. However, the pain was not enough for him to run away. Instead, he sits in his castle, thinking of ways to cancel the betrothal, or worse, ways to just survive the wedding.

Sakura walked slowly to the large closet which sat beside the portrait. It was large, stretching over to the next wall.

"Wow... This thing is large..." Sakura said. Syaoran walked towards her and chuckled.

"I must agree. Well she is a princess after all,"

"I could never have such a large wardrobe because a certain Prince is very stingy with the wages," Sakura said as she gave him a playful glare. Syaoran feigned hurt and gasp.

"How mean! So 5000 yen each day is not enough for you?" Syaoran asked. Sakura glared.

"Well, we aren't even allowed to get out of the castle to see our parents for days! I mean, my parents are in Korea but still! I have a 'mother' in the Kinomoto town of Tomoeda. I miss her, and you won't allow me to get out of the castle that much because you are afraid I will get attacked again," Sakura complained. Syaoran just sighed and leaned against the closet.

"Since we are in the Kinomoto lands now, why don't we go and visit your mother then?" Syaoran asked. Sakura gave him a look.

"Are you sure you are the Li Prince? You seem rather nice nowadays. It is scaring me! What happened to the boy who keeps yelling at me because he was bored?" Sakura asked as she poked his cheek. Syaoran growled at her and swapped the hand away.

"Well, I haven't changed. I am being nice so that you won't get mad quickly and get wrinkles earlier,"

"why you little..!" Sakura growled as she hit him on his shoulder. Syaoran 'oww'ed and rubbed his shoulder.

"You are a violent little lady. Come on, we gotta get to this Tomoeda before dinnertime. God knows when is dinnertime in the castle," Syaoran said. Sakura merely nodded and smiled.

Besides, she knew when it was anyways.

oOo

"SAKURA-SANNN!!!!" that was the instant reaction when Sakura approached the orphanage. Syaoran blinked as the scene unfold in front of him. Sakura was bombarded by 20 children, all wanting to hug the poor girl. Sakura had the brightest of smiles on her face as she hugged the children. Syaoran blinked once more. Somehow, his eyes were fixed on her again. The way she was with the children reminds him of a mother showering her children with undivided love. Sakura then kissed each of their cheeks and grinned.

"How are my cute little munchkins?" Sakura asked. The children started to chatter, all at the same time. Sakura laughed at their cuteness and asked them to slow down. That was when a girl who had long brown hair and large green eyes noticed Syaoran.

"Sakura-neesan! Who is that man behind you?" the girl asked as she pointed her tiny index finger towards Syaoran. Sakura then realized that she had forgotten all about Syaoran. She turned towards Syaoran and motioned him to come nearer. Syaoran gave her a pleading look which said that he did not want to. Instead of letting him be, Sakura glared daggers at Syaoran, making him walk briskly towards the girl and children.

"Well, munchkins. Meet Prince Syaoran Li. He is the person Sister Sakura is working for. Your highness, meet the orphans of Tomoeda Orphanage. They are, in descending order of age, Takeshi, Cho, Kazuki, Ai, Sora, Hiroaki, Takayuki, Katsumi, Satoshi, Kokoro, Mamoru, Minako, Chiyoko, Akihiro, Masaru, Masato, Shizuko, Shizuka, Kiyoshi and Kenta," Sakura introduced as she pointed to the respective children. Syaoran's head spun. There was so many of them, how could she possibly remember them all?! Sakura saw the look on his face and laughed.

"Don't worry about remembering their names. You won't be seeing them much anyways. I wouldn't want you to be following me all the time," Sakura assured as she turned back towards the children. The girl, Kokoro, continued to stare at Syaoran. She then skipped towards him and tugged his wrist.

"Onii-san! Come play with us," she said, bursting with energy as she pulled Syaoran towards Sakura and the children. Sakura gave him a smile but her glare told him otherwise. They played with children, laughing and joking about. Soon their games turned into a tickle fest. Sakura poked Syaoran on his side, causing him to jump up suddenly and move to the side. Sakura's eyes were wide when her mind processed what had happened. Instantly a large evil grin stretched her lips as she approached the backing Syaoran with curled fingers. Syaoran had a look of fear on his face as she approached. Suddenly, in a flurry of motions, Sakura pounced on him and started tickling the air out of him.

Syaoran could not stop guffawing. Sakura's skilled fingers glide over his sensitively ticklish spots and her legs trapped him to his spot. Her weight was pinning him down to the ground as she straddled him. Syaoran managed to grab her wrists before she made him cry due to laughter. He already had tears collecting in his eyes. He was breathing hard as he stopped laughing. He noticed that Sakura was looking towards the orphanage with wide eyes.

"Hikaru-san!!" Sakura squealed as she got off him and ran to the elderly woman. Hikaru gave Sakura a small sweet smile. Sakura was hugging her tightly as she start blabbering everything to Hikaru. Hikaru noticed the Li Prince who was still on his back on the ground, staring intently at the two of them.

"I see you brought along a friend. Isn't that the Prince of the Li Kingdom?" Hikaru asked. Sakura merely nodded boredly. Sakura's eyes widened in realization as she stuffed a hand into the pockets of her pants. She then pulled a wad of bills and gently shoved it into Hikaru's hand. Hikaru started to shake her head.

"Sakura... I could not accept this really! The money you gave me not too long ago has yet to finish! This is your money," Hikaru said as she pushed the money into Sakura's hands. Sakura gave Hikaru a small smile and shook her head while gently pushing the money into Hikaru's wrinkled hand.

"Do no argue with me Hikaru-san. You do know that I always win," Sakura stated as she closed Hikaru's fingers over the wad of bills. Hikaru sighed and took the money.

"Thank you so much. I am still unsure as to why you keep on funding this old orphanage," Hikaru said, her voice filled with emotions. Sakura smiled bashfully at her.

"It is because this is my home as well!" Sakura said easily as she hugged Hikaru warmly. Hikaru then walked into the orphanage to keep the money away. Sakura's smile faltered as she turned towards the children.

"What shall we do now, munchkins?" Sakura asked as she knelt in front of the children. They gave her cute thinking faces. Syaoran stood up and walked towards the group. Takeshi's eyes then widened as a cute grin decorated his face.

"Sing for us, Sakura-neesan!"

oOo

Everyone sat in a circle with Sakura and Syaoran. Sakura sat beside Syaoran and Takeshi sat beside him and so on. Sakura thought of what song to sing and found one which kind of relates to her past life.

Saturday, steppin' into the club
Somebody wanna tell DJ to turn it up
I feel the energy all around
And my body can't stop moving to the sound

But I can tell that you're watching me
And you're probably gonna write what you didn't see
Well I just need a little space to breathe
Can you please respect my privacy

"I said stop it! Me and Yukito did nothing together! We were just dancing in the ballroom like all were. He just happened to trip and accidentally kissed me!" Sakura shouted as she stood up from her seat. Her father shook his head and sighed. He placed the parchment of news he got this morning.

There on the front page was a picture drawn by some journalist of Sakura with a silver haired man in a lip lock. The large words of the headline was inked so darkly it stood out from the brownish paper.

'Sakura Kinomoto, Princess of Kinomoto smooches Yukito Tsukishiro,a commoner. Is she cheating on the Li Prince?!'

Why can't you just let me
Do the things I wanna do
I just wanna be me
I don't understand why
Would you wanna bring me down
I'm only having fun
I'm going live my life (not the way you want me to)

"Otou-san! Why won't you let me even choose my own husband?! Why must you be the one who chooses everything for me?! I do not want to get married to the Li Prince!" Sakura shouted as she glared at her father who merely gave her a stern look.

"Why?! Do you want to marry that commoner, Yukito?!" her father's voice boomed throughout the room. Sakura looked scared for a while before the fire returned back into her eyes.

"Yes, Otou-san. I love him! And even if you don't approve I will find him and marry him! I am going to do what I want now!"

I'm tired of rumors starting
I'm sick of being followed
I'm tired of people lying
Saying what they want about me
Why can't they back up off me
Why can't they let me live
I'm gonna do it my way
Take this for just what it is

Sakura's eyes widened. Why are there people everywhere?! She only wanted a normal outing on her own with Yukito. Why are all her bodyguards and her father's men everywhere?! There was even reporters who stared at her and Yukito with inked feathers in their hands. Why can't they just leave her alone?! Yukito sighed when he noticed the people around them.

"Looks like we can't never be alone without some bad news lurking around. I guess they are going to start another rumor about us," Yukito said. Sakura growled and nodded. These people seriously needed to back off! Sakura then grabbed Yukito's hand. She pulled him as she started running away from the overcrowded place.

Here we are back up in the club
People taking pictures
Don't you think they get enough
I just wanna be all over the floor
And throw my hands up in the air to the beat like (What?)

I've gotta say respectfully
I would like it if you take the cameras off of me
'Cause I just want a little room to breathe
Can you please respect my privacy

"Excuse me, could you stop drawing portraits about us all over the news?! We aren't a couple, dammit!" Sakura shouted as she shove a reporter up the wall. Yukito fretted and tried to calm her down but Sakura was beyond pissed. She was angry that her and Yukito's possibly last day together was ruined when she saw the reporter furiously sketching rough drafts of Sakura and Yukito. Yukito grabbed her arm and pulled her away from the reporter.

"I suggest you leave us, Mr reporter. She obviously need space. Why can't you people respect her privacy? Just because she is the Princess does not mean she should be trailed everywhere and have her every move monitored," Yukito said, his silver eyes filled with anger and he was glaring at the reporter. If looks could kill, Yukito would have probably electrocuted the poor man.

Why can't you just let me
Do the things I wanna do
I just wanna be me
I don't understand why
Would you wanna bring me down
I'm only having fun
I wanna live my life
Like I wanna do

"WHAT?! Are you crazy Sakura?! Why are you going to run away?" Yukito asked. Sakura sighed as she sat on the chair opposite Yukito. She took his hand and gave him a sad look.

"I can't handle it anymore, Yuki. Everywhere I go, there are bound to be people trying their best to bring me down. I seriously need time away from these things and I really need to get away from the news of my betrothal. I am leaving tomorrow morning before dawn with Tomoyo-chan," Sakura stated as she stood up. She was about to leave when Yukito grabbed her wrist.

"What about your father? Your mother and your brother? They would be worried sick about you!" Yukito said. Sakura merely gave him another look which reminded him of a sad puppy. Her eyes were teary and downcast. Yukito pulled her into his chest and hugged her tightly.

"What about me..?"

I just need to free my mind (my mind)
Just wanna dance and have a good time (good time)

I'm tired of rumors (rumors)
Followed (followed, followed, followed, followed, followed)

What they (follow) me
Why can't they (they they they-they-they) let me live

Take this for just what it is

I'm tired of rumors starting
I'm sick of being followed
I'm tired of people lying
Saying what they want about me
Why can't they back up off me
why can't they let me live
I'm gonna do it my way
Take this for just what it is

Sakura smiled as she finished the song. The memories of her and Yukito came rushing when she was singing that song. It was most probably due to the sudden spike in the amount of rumors being spread about her and Yukito. Syaoran merely stared at the girl. She was a very mysterious specimen. She doesn't stop confusing him. Why was it that she was so simple and at the same time so complicated? Her background seemed rather shady and her songs told a much clearer story. She was obviously someone with status that somehow is rejected from her home. It was so with her songs. Why would there be rumors about her? Somehow, everything confuses Syaoran.

Who was Chae Sakura Kinoto anyways?!
