The two mermaids were not so far from the Li kingdom, Tomoyo was in the water looking at Sakura who was sitting on a huge rock looking at the sky with a smile on her face.
"So Sakura are you going to tell me or what?" asked Tomoyo with a serious tone.
"I am not going to tell you, I will show you but you have to wait a bit" answered Sakura as she continued to look at the sky.
"For what?" asked Tomoyo look at Sakura now confused as ever.
"The sun" said Sakura happily as Tomoyo look at the sky and then the sun started to rise.
As the sun rise, Sakura took off her pearl hair pin and rise into the sunlight. The pearl hairpin let out a beautiful music and the water began to shine and sparkle, reliving a big rainbow in the sky and Sakura began to sing the melody from the pearl hairpin.
***********************************************************************************
Syaoran was on his way to the rock where Sakura was, when suddenly he stop and saw a beautiful rainbow in the sky and the ocean shiny and sparkling.
"That strange, it didn't rain today so there shouldn't be a rainbow in the sky" said Syaoran with a confused tone.
Suddenly Syaoran heard Sakura singing and music been played.
"What a beautiful song. I never heard such a beautiful voice in all my life. It coming from the direction where that girl is. It must be her singing!!!!!!" said Syaoran as he quickly went back on running now even more determined than ever.
***********************************************************************************
"Sakura!!!" said Tomoyo surprise tone as she look at Sakura as she stopped singing.
"That was the most beautiful song I have ever heard in my life, where did you heard it from?" asked Tomoyo with a happy tone and look on her face.
"My Mother used to sing this song every night when I was little and when I heard the same melody I just have to sing!!" answered Sakura with a cheery tone.
"And the rainbow and the water shiny and sparkling"asked Tomoyo calmly.
"It came from the pearl hairpin. I heard it from my Mother one day when I was swimming to the garden as she was showing me the pearl hairpin that she was wearing. Apparently she said that the pearl hairpin is a heirloom that is uses to bring happiness to the person who wears it but only mermaid with the same bloodline can use it. Also that it's my Mother most precious treasure and I am so happy to have it. I really needed to show you cause your my best friend " answered Sakura with a smile on her face as she was holding the pearl hairpin close to her chest.
"Sakura........" said Tomoyo with a gentle smile and look on her face as Sakura began to sing the melody again.

Syaoran was now close to the huge rock where Sakura and Tomoyo are. Syaoran could see Sakura singing from the beach, relies that she was the girl from before and he was going to take a even closer look when suddenly Tomoyo look at the beach seeing Syaoran giving her a fright.
"Sakura!!, there someone on the beach!!" said Tomoyo as she showed Sakura the person.
"What????!!!!!" said Sakura as she stopped singing as she saw the same person on the beach.
"We have to go now before he catches us!!!!!" said Tomoyo as she swam as far she can from the rock.
"Right!!!!"said Sakura putting her pearl hairpin back on her hair as she jumped off the rock and hit the water with a splash which made Syaoran surprise seeing Sakura's pink tail.
"She's a mermaid!!!???" said Syaoran to himself blushing as he snap himself out of it.
"Wait!!!!, Please come back!!!!!" yelled Syaoran as he started to walk into the water as fast as he could.
Sakura got her head out of the water and was about to go to Tomoyo's direction when she turned around to see the person who was yelling at her.
"It's the guy I saved!!!!" said Sakura to herself surprisingly as she was in shocked when she found out who it was and she gave out a small blush.
Sakura dived back in the water and slowly swimming to Syaoran without any seconds thoughts.
