And today comes again, bringing the summer breeze. In the corner of my usual life, suddenly I see loneliness. No matter where I go on my bike, I'll never forget the speed of riding in the wind. La la la la Let's look up to the sky and sing! La la la la It's my life. I'll keep walking it. La la la la Let's look up to the sky and sing! La la la la It's my life. I'll keep walking it. With my own strength, I make my way in this endless town. * * * * Long ago there were three kingdoms. There was the Kinomoto's kingdom, Li's kingdom, and the Kesumi's kingdom. King Kinomoto and Queen Nadeshiko ruled Kinomoto's kingdom. King Li and Queen Yelan rule Li's kingdom and the Kesumi's kingdom is ruled by King Kesumi. Ever since he was small, he had fallen in love with Princess Nadeshiko and Princess Yelan. He used many nasty tricks to try to win them over, but every time at the last moment, Prince Kinomoto and Prince Li would always saved them. Kinomoto's kingdom conquered most of Japan while the Li's kingdom conquered most of China. The Kesumi's kingdom conquered the most lands. He conquered both the Li and Kinomoto's lands. Because of his jealously of the princess's marriage, he and the other kingdoms had wars ever since. The Li and Kinomoto's family had a great relationship. Queen Nadeshiko and Queen Yelan knew each other when they were small. Because of their good relationship, King Kinomoto and King Li decided to unite their kingdoms. During the day when they had just decided to unite, Queen Nadeshiko and Queen Yelan's baby was born. They remembered that they had just promised yesterday that if both of their children are boys, they'll be stepbrothers. If both their child is a boy, they'll be stepsisters and if they have different genders, they'll be engaged and will marry at the age of eighteen. "Congratulations, King Li! Queen Yelan had just had a prince!" King Li heard one of the maids exclaimed. Five hours later, on the other side, another maid had exclaimed. "Congratulations King Kinomoto! You had had a princess! What name will you name her, your highness?" she asked. "She looked as beautiful as the cherry blossom tree that is in the garden." Queen Nadeshiko implied. "Let's name her Sakura." King Kinomoto implied. "Princess Sakura. Wishes you long lasting life!" the king's henchman and all the maids said while kneeling to the ground. "Prince Syaoran. Wishes you long lasting life!" King Li's henchman and the maids said as they kneeled at the ground. * * * "My henchman, please contact the Kinomoto kingdom that my wife had had a prince." King Li told his henchman. "Yes, your highness." His henchman said as they hurried off. Three hours later, King Li's henchman had return. "Your Majesty. King Kinomoto had just had a princess. It was four hours before." "Well, our prince was five hours before her princess. Excellent. Then we can make an engagement." King Li implied. Then he took out a jade ornament. The ornament was made out from jades. In the middle of the jade, there was a carved dragon and at the bottom of it, was their family name, Li. Hanging down from the jade was bristles/tassels of red strings. "My henchman, give this to the Kinomoto kingdom. This will be proven to the engagement." He explained. A few hours passed. Then King Li's henchman arrived. He then gave a jade with a picture of a flower carved in the middle and the name "Kinomoto" carved at the bottom with tassels/bristles of yellow strings hanging below the jade to King LI. "Eighteen years later will be our child's big day." King Li implied. * * * Yay! Chapter 1! I'm finally finished! Well, wanna know what happens? Find out in my next chapter!
