Chapter 18: Welcome to Hong Kong
-Last time-
"You haven't done anything wrong but I need you to pack for two weeks worth of clothes. I have to take you, Tomoyo and Eriol with me back to Hong Kong. Don't worry it's nothing bad," his voice sounded so confident yet he wasn't really sure himself. How would the elders react when they saw her. He gave a reassuring smile to Sakura and went to find Eriol and Tomoyo to tell them the news of leaving as well. The next two weeks are going to be an adventure.
-Next morning-
Well the next morning was rather…slow. The gang had spent all yesterday preparing for their leave. They had arranged that Touya would come and check on both their place and take care of the cats while they were gone. He wasn't thrilled about his sister and Tomoyo leaving to another country with two guys. However the two girls had convinced him that it was only for two weeks and they would call and check in from time to time. So he agreed to let them go but told them if he hadn't heard much from them he would go to china and hunt them down.
They were now on a plane to Hong Kong. From what Syaoran heard Rei had already took a plan yesterday night to china to get a head start. He groaned at the thought of seeing his family and the elders. He had many doubts in his mind of the next two week being anything peaceful. He groaned again when he thought about his sisters and what they would do to him and his friends when they got their.
Sakura who had been sitting next to him on the plan tapped his shoulder. Syaoran quickly tensed but then relaxed when he saw it was Sakura. "Are you alright Syaoran? You have been groaning the whole time we got on the plane," she gave a concerned look and Syaoran feel a bit guilty for making her worry.
Just as he was about to answer Eriol who was a seat in front decide to answer for him. "Oh he is just worried about his family is all. You know he has to hold a certain status where ever he goes. It's just stress don't mind him," Eriol then turned to face his cousin "right?" he was now sporting a smirk and Syaoran was sporting a scowl. Eriol just chuckled and turned around in his seat and continued pretending to talk to Tomoyo but the two were ease dropping.
"Oh..." was all Sakura said as she looked down towards the floor. Syaoran turned to face her, wondering what was bothering her all of the sudden. He was about to ask when she spoke again. "I will do my best…." She then looked up at him a smile planted firmly on her face. "to make sure that I don't do anything to embarrass you Syaoran"
Syaoran face was a complete shock. She was worried that she would embarrass him? Syaoran just chuckled and kissed her forehead. "Don't worry, I am not worried about you messing up so don't you worry." With that he gave her a light smile before turning to look back out the window to think some more.
Sakura felt a bit better and decided to enjoy the view as well. It was going to be a bit of a long ride. Tomoyo and Eriol just smiled as each other and they watched the whole scene. They had planed that by the end of the trip to get Sakura and Syaoran finally together.
-Arriving in Hong Kong-
It had seemed the girls had fallen asleep during the trip. Syaoran would have liked to get more rest since he didn't sleep so well the night before but his mind was still stuck on the days that he will be spending in Hong Kong. The plane began to rock as it came to a landing. Syaoran looked from the window to Sakura's sleeping face. He smiled at how cute she was when she slept. He felt eyes on him so he looked up to see Eriol looking dead at him. He just gave a raised brow at him as to ask the unspoken "what" question.
"Syaoran stay on your toes while we are here. Rei is not one to mess with, she is well known for trickery. I tell you this because I know your mind will be on focused on the Elders as well as your mother but don't forget why it is we were brought here. Expect the unexpected."
With the Eriol turned around in his seat and began waking Tomoyo up so they could get off the plane. Syaoran let the words sink in completely before he got up and went over to wake Sakura. When the got off the plane their was a old man standing their holding a sign that Said "Lee Family"
Syaoran took hold of Sakura's hand and walked over to the man while Eriol and Tomoyo did the same.
"Welcome back Master Syaoran, Master Eriol" the man said as he bowed. Sakura and Tomoyo just looked at each other then back to the old man. He seemed like a butler since he wore a suit.
"Thanks Wei, it's good to be back," Syaoran said and Eriol nodded and bowed back.
"Your bags have already been picked up and are waiting in the limo that will take you to your home. Shall we go?" Wei said putting out his right hand as a gesture to show which direction to go.
The two guys just nodded and both took each girls arm and walked them to the car. When they got there however many Camera crews surround them in a flash.
"The next Heir in line to take over the Great Lee Family title Syaoran has just arrived! Do you have any words for us Mr. Lee," the first reporter spoke.
"Ah also on the scene is the next in Heir to become the Lee family advisor is none other than Eriol! How was your trip?" reporter 2 spoke
"Oh my it's seem that both Heirs have brought what seems to be two more candidate for marriage. What are your names ladies?" reporter 3 spoke
"More candidates? It was last reported that both young men have lots of candidates placed in one of the Lee's mansion. Its holds 125 people and last time it was said to be full!" reporter 4 shouted into the mic.
Syaoran just growled as he griped onto Sakura's arm firmly so as to not lose her as he pushed his way through the crowd. Eriol and Tomoyo did the same. They finally all made it into the car, with a sigh a relief as the limo drove off towards the Lee estate. Sakura was in awe as they made their way through the long drive way to the main house where Lee family lives. Sakura thought that Tomoyo's house was the biggest that she would ever see but this place beat hers for sure. All three of the others laughed at Sakura as she was greatly amazed at the house.
Soon the limo stopped at the front door and the gang got out. Sakura and Tomoyo took in their surroundings. Syaoran placed a hand on Sakura's shoulder in return she turned around smiling at him.
"Come on so we can get you settled in," Syaoran said as Sakura nodded her head and walked over to Eriol and Tomoyo who were waiting near the porch steps. Syaoran was just about to open the door when its bursts open sending the door straight into his face.
Sakura and Tomoyo sweat dropped as four girls ran past the door and huddle around them. The four girls began to pull and tug on Sakura and Tomoyo. Two of the girl had poor Sakura squeezed between their bodies and she wasn't getting much air.
"Oh my," Tomoyo said as she saw from her spot of being cuddled that Sakura's face was getting red from the lack of oxygen. "Um she can't breath"
By now Syaoran had recovered from becoming such great friends with the door. He swiftly walked over to where Sakura was and pulled her away from his crazed sisters. He then pulled Tomoyo away as well before giving his sister a stern look as they gave whines in protest.
Eriol walked up to the gang as he chuckled. Both Tomoyo and Sakura's hair was everywhere about their heads. They look like they had been shocked. The door then open once more and a beautiful woman stepped out. She did not smile which made Sakura tense a bit. Behind her were another woman and Rei who ran past the two women and jumped on Syaoran.
"Oh Syaoran you made it here safely thank goodness! Oh welcome home my love. I am glad to see you here," she said as she hugged him tighter. She then looked past him to see Sakura who was once again being jumped by the Lee sisters. She just glared at Sakura with murder in her eyes.
"Let us all go inside so that we may all talk." The first woman said as she went back inside followed by the other woman. Everyone just followed in as well.
When they got inside the house it seemed to have grown in size. The woman took everyone into what seemed like a huge living room. She sat at in a chair covered in silk. Sakura looked around and noticed that all the chair where covered in silk. Everyone began to take their seats. Once everyone was seated the woman spoke.
"Syaoran I am very disappointed that you have found a chosen of your liking and have not thought to inform the elders or me. The same for you too Eriol, considering that you a next heir in line to be advisor this does not set well." The woman said.
"I understand that mother, however I thought it would have been a waste to inform you if the one I chose, did not choose me yet," Syaoran spoke. His voice was more in a tone of royalty than what Sakura was used to hearing. She still couldn't believe the beautiful woman was his mother.
His mother sat in silence for a moment before nodding her head in response. "Still it would have been nice to have heard that both of you had found someone of your liking. Now we must get ready to go see the elders. Syaoran and Eriol go get dressed in your proper clothing. My daughters please take our lovely guests upstairs and have them dress to fit. And Rei I will see you later on tonight. You may leave." With that everyone gave a respectful bow as they all headed in different directions.
Ok so how was it everyone? I made this chapter a bit longer to try and make up for me being gone for so long. I got to help plan a family member's wedding in Texas in one month. It didn't help that when I got back to my own home which is 14 hours away, that internet had been turned off. I was going to make it longer but it would ruin how I want to do the next chapter but the next one I will try and make extra long as well to try and make up for the long leave of absents. I didn't plan my summer to be like this one bit. Well enjoy your week everyone. I hope you all are having a good summer yourselves. Review if you have time plz. Suggestions are always welcome
