I decided to start All Costs over again. As much as I love it, I'd like it to be a series. This version will have much more detail. Please note, Sakura-tachi are all 17. Also, note that I am a narrator.

A small, rectangular shape flew threw the air above Penguin Park – in the dead of the night, nobody was there apart from a girl, standing, gazing around the park. But one thing I noticed was that the giant king penguin slide, was turned over. Not on its head, turned over to the right, instead of the left. I also noticed that the swings, small slides and other things were reversed direction – but that is normal, because this is not the Tomeoda we all know, this is the Tomeoda in The Realm of Reflections.

Sakura Kinomoto woke with a start. What was that? Maybe she should check with Kero – he might be able to explain. But what was that card? She caught the cards four years ago, right? And transformed them, right? She hoped so, anyway. Tomeoda had been so peaceful lately. With the power of Clow sealed away in Sakura's book, and Yueh asleep in the book with them, guarding them, everything was perfect again, like it was before she opened the Clow Book. Or so she thought…

"Yueh. I need you to help me fulfil this project I'm doing. Can you help me?" We see a large body covered completely in two large, silver wings, which slowly unfold. "What is this 'project', Clow?"

"I don't regret making Sakura your master, but we need to get rid of her,"

"But Clow-san, why?"

"Why? Well, Yueh, you tell me how long you've been asleep in the book."

Yueh's head dropped. "… four years."

"That's pretty much self-explanatory, isn't it?"

"But Master Clow – I do wish to obey you, but I recognize Sakura as my master now. I can't kill her."

"Kill her? I wouldn't kill her, Yueh! She can't possibly die in The Realm of Reflections, can she?"

"No, but still…"

"Yueh, I know you have developed… how can I say, 'feelings' for Sakura-san, but you must do it. What would you rather have? Freedom for yourself and Cerberus, or Sakura's happiness?"

"Clow-san, that is a very bad question. My answer is the latter."

"It is? Well, have it your way. Copy my chant, Yueh."

Yueh nodded.

"Guardians by Clow,"

"Guardians by Clow,"

"Seal yourselves to the book of which you were created for,"

"Seal yourselves to the book of which you were created for,"

"Guardians of Clow!"

"G… Guardians of Clow…!" Yueh sadly quoted.

Suddenly, he felt himself sucked up by a card in Clow's hand. It was a spitting-image of himself, drawn manga style, and what surprised me most was…

THE JUDGE
