You didn't post expected output. So based on some assumptions:
Code:
awk -F'[<>]' '
        /<mm>LongTime<\/mm>/ {
                f = 1
        }
        f && /<lkid>/ {
                print $3
                getline
                print $3
                f = 0
        }
' file.xml

Use nawk instead in SunOS/Solaris. Modify as per your requirement.
