CCS does not belong to me.
Enjoy!

But Why Vash?
"Nakita!" Vash ran down the hall Monday morning. "You left your books in class!" Nakita took her books from him.
"Sorry." She said. Vash left. "He's such a nice kid, you know." Nakita said.
"I don't know." I said.
"What do you mean?" Nakita asked.
"It's just, I don't trust him somehow."
"Yuki, he's perfectly trustworthy!" Nakita said. I sighed. Why did I have this feeling? Vash was not to be trusted, and neither was his sister, Kelli. I had discussed it with Snowy, who said she had had some of what seemed to be the same instinct. So why were we the only ones who suspected Vash?
"Earth to Yuki." Nakita said, waving her had in front of my face. "C'mon, we're going to be late to math class."
"I don't really want to go." I mumbled.
"Yuki, you are NOT going to skip class."
"I've done it before, and all I've had to make up was a history quiz."
"How many classes?"
"Three."
"THREE!!!!" Nakita stared in shock. "Well, well, what was your excuse?"
"Math counts." I grumbled, and let Nakita drag me to math class. "And at the moment, math is the least thing I would want to do."
"Just because it takes all that much thought doesn't mean you have to hate it." Nakita said. "You're usually better than me at math." I groaned and slipped into my desk as the bell ran. Nakita took a seat next to me. Kanari, Snowy, and Doughboy were already there. Kelli was there too, but Vash didn't have Mrs. Weeks.
"And you do so bad in English." Nakita whispered.
"Yeah, well, I actually like English." I said. "It's fun." Nakita gave up.
"And this is the girl that used to try to convince me in Elementary school that math was a challenge." Nakita mumbled. The teacher walked up to her desk (which was littered with PEZ expensers) and sat down to assign us work.
"All seven Jewels have been captured." Snowy said. "I mean, I'm just sitting here, waiting for something to happen now." I looked at Kelli. Luckily, she was sitting three rows away and eagerly bent over her work.
"I know what you mean." Kanari whispered. "We haven't seen Eriol in a long time. It's like he disappeared or something."
"Uh." Doughboy was giggling. "Have you guys checked the door yet?"
"The Fourth Dimension?" I asked. "No, why?"
"Oh, it's hilarious." Doughboy said. "I go there to check it every day. He slashes it, and then the next day it grows back. He's still here."
The teacher then plunged into a speech about how we would go to Bridgestone Academy after finishing with Sabreda Grade School, since we were in the last grade already, otherwise eliminating any other forms of conversation.
We met in the park in the afternoon, all of us: Kanari, Nakita, Doughboy, Rene, Liz, Snowy, and I. We talked over normal things for a while, until we couldn't stand it anymore. I took out the Jewels.
There was Cap's Jewel, the red one, Nakita's Jewel, the Blue one, and Scarlet's Jewel. We knew tat Eriol had at least two, Kanari's yellow and Melvin's green Jewel. Someone or other had Ulala and Eliza's Jewel. I shivered at the thought and put the Jewels away.
Suddenly, there was a sonic boom, and I felt thrown to my feet. WE all stood up, but our surroundings began to swirl. Instead of the usual green palm trees and lush grasses, I saw mist and fog. When it started to clear, I saw my friend. Tightening my velvet pouch containing the Jewels, I walked over to Snowy.
"Let's all keep together." I said, leading her over to Nakita and Kanari. Liz and Doughboy found us moments later. Rene was found too. "What's going on?"
We seemed to be moving, forwards, if not very fast. We seemed to be flying out of the fog, totally unaware of ourselves. At last, we arrived at our destination. It was a huge, white, marble building, looking a lot like the Lincoln Memorial, only MUCH nicer. It looked somewhat like the White House as well. We seemed to be standing on dirt, but as I looked the other way, away from the house, I saw nothing but the fog I could not endure once more to go back. No one spoke much but I'm sure we had the same feeling as we walked up the steps. But before we went in, we all shouted "release" (at least us Angels) and got out our weapons, just in case. Then we noticed that we were wearing the most peculiar costumes.
Doughboy and Liz were wearing the robes that Rene had provided, and Doughboy his hat. I was wearing a pink dress, and so was Snowy. Rene had her new Alice in Wonderland dress on. Nakita and Kanari had their things on too, the simple dresses, and Nakita her skating dress.
"Wonderful." Rene said. "It seeks to provide me with the things I once and all wish." We heard a swishing sound, and out from the mist, an object flew towards us. Rene caught it, and put the strap around her neck. It was her camera. "And also, this will be the first tape I ever have of this." Rene said. "Perfect. Are we going to go in anytime soon?"
Snowy and I led the way, mumbling "Tweedledee and Tweedledum" as we made our way up the front stairs. We knocked, but no one replied, so we just tried the doorknob.
It was unlocked.
Inside, there was a foyer that lead to several doors. Snowy and I looked at each other, and then pointed to the door straight in front of us.
"That one." We said.
"Why?" Kanari asked softly, as if she would break something if she were louder.
"That one has the most scent." I said. Kanari looked at me as if I were a dog. "Well, not like that. I mean, I can sense more from that door. The strange thing is (I frowned and looked at the other doors) I sense things from that door too." Nakita shivered.
"Oh, why do doors have to be closed?" Nakita asked. "Okay, let's go." I pulled out the Sword Card and changed my wand. Liz and I ran up to the door, and then barged in, swords extended.
There was no one in the room, except a white lady. She had blond hair, and blue eyes, and was very young. She was all covered in white, not as in a wedding gown, but as in a mist and a bright light, as in she wasn't real, but only an illusion.
"What are you?" Snowy asked, walking into the room. The figure turned, and now you could see that she was only a little girl, no more than fifteen years old, but had seen the many horrors of the world already.
"Angels?" She asked, tilting her head. "Where are the jewels?" And as soon as she spoke, you knew she was to be trusted. She walked over to a humongous prism, and I understood.
"Oh, we have to put the Jewels back into the prism to help her escape. She must be in Queen Jewel's dungeon." The girl shook her head.
"This hardly looks like a dungeon." Doughboy said, fingering the flowers on the walls. He looked at the girl. "Couldn't you explain?" The girl wearily sat down on the chair she had been sitting on when we came in, and opened her mouth.
"We are not in the Fifth Dimension." She said. "We are basically Nowhere."
"Nowhere?" Rene asked, still taping.
"Must be." Doughboy said. "Nowhere must be a location."
"Many years ago, my sister and I were playing. We are twins, you know. And then a big light flew our way and hit my sister. We've always stuck up for each other. So it's figured that she has turned into a large white Jewel that can change the world. She gave me powers too. (The girl pointed an index finger at the prism and made it slide closer to us.) but the darkness was still after her, us. We made up the light, the two of us. I am a Jewel."
"So, let me get this right." Doughboy said. "You're saying they captured your sister, and when she had nowhere to go, she turned into a Jewel, and they accidentally injected her through the prism and turned her into little Jewels." Snowy winced as he said this.
"Correct." The girl said. "My name is Marium K. Jewel, and my sister, well, we call her Jewel. We can only perform magical things when we are in our life forms (she pointed at herself) and when we commerce, we become even greater."
"So when she had no where to run, she turned into a Jewel, and Marium wants her sister back now." Doughboy said. "But we don't have all the pieces."
"Oh, for goodness's sake, Jewel is human!" Snowy said. "Would you stop saying pieces and splitting?" She shivered and sighed nervously. Nakita chafed her arm to keep warm.
I walked up to Marium, took her hand, and opened the velvet bag. I poured the three jewels into her hand gently, and bowed then left, all done silently. She looked at the pieces sadly.
"All you have?" She asked, pointing. I nodded and the rest of the group murmured. "Come." We walked after her, through another door. She moved the huge prism in front of her. We arrived in a huge room, probably once a ballroom. Marium gasped in surprise, and so did we.
In the middle of the room, Eriol and Colton were standing, but on the other side, directly opposite, was, well, a HUGE surprise.
Vash and Kelli.
"Vash?" Nakita asked. She abutted on Kanari, and looked faint. Vash turned his head slowly in reorganization to her voice.
"Nakita." He said. "What are you doing here?"
"I would like to question this first." Marium said. "I don't see any passports." She said angrily. Eriol held up a yellow and green jewel, while Vash and Kelli both held up one Jewel apiece, an Orange and Indigo one. Nakita gasped, and sank into the ground.
"Vash, no." She said, quietly. Doughboy patted her head.
"Okay." Liz said. "I see now. Yuki, Snowy, I owe you an apology." Nakita looked at the ground.
"Hey." Kanari said softly, bending down next to her. "We all make some form of mistake, once in a while." Nakita looked at Vash.
Vash did not meet her gaze. Instead, he focused it on Marium, who had the three Jewels.
"I have to do this." He said to himself. "No matter what Nakita or anyone says, it's my destiny. My destiny to take over this world." Out loud he said, "For Queen Jewel."
Good old Vash. Kelli looked at him worriedly. I hope he doesn't hurt himself. We don't really stand a chance. "Anora, come out!!!" The door opened, and a squirrel -like animal walked in. It spread out its wings and flew over to Kelli. Waving its bush tail, it turned into a human figure.
A very small dwarf. Red hair, pinkish skin, dressed in green, with big, pointed ears. Doughboy stared.
"So, that's Anora, correct?" Doughboy asked.
"Probably AN Anora." Rene said. "I'm getting some great shots."
"Okay." Snowy said. "I'm taking charge. This is a three way battle for the Jewels."
"Aren't they on the same team?" Liz asked, pointing to the two groups in the center of the ballroom.
"No." Eriol said. "We both come from Queen Jewel's colonies, but are rivals." Colton nodded.
"It's a LONG story." Colton said in his deep, growling voice.
"Okay, then." Snowy said quietly so only we could hear. "Here goes: Liz and Doughboy, Yuki and I will charge at them and fight. Nakita and Kanari will guard Marium.
"Count me out." Nakita said. "I feel as if I can't do ANYTHING."
"Nakita!" Kanari said. "There's more to it than being stuck in a puddle. You can't drag others into it (I didn't think even Kanari knew what she was talking about)." Nakita looked up.
"Okay, all right, I'll do it." Rene handed Nakita her pocketknife. She handed Kanari her razor.
"Be careful." Rene said. "They're sharp."
"Okay, we will." Kanari and Nakita took their positions in front of Marium, defending her.
"Thanks." Marium said.
The battle began. The little elf turned back into Anora, and lunged at us.
Snowy hit it with her broom, and we charged at Kelli and Vash. Kelli jumped and extended a stick. Snowy and Kelli started to fight one on one. Doughboy started to shoot lasers at Eriol, through his eye.
"Yes, he's found out how to control it." I heard Liz say. Then the laser hit the floor where it had missed Eriol, bounced off, ricocheted off the wall, and aimed for us. Liz held up her sword blade, so it bounced off again and hit Anora, who was lunging at us with an extended claw. Anora slid halfway across the room, and turned back into the elf. Vash rushed over to pick her up. "I guess not." Liz said, then started to fight with Colton. I approached Vash, and held out my sword an inch from his face.
He frowned.
"Don't you think you can beat me so easily." He said with a sheepish grin, and then turned his eyes on me. I shot back several feet, while he got out his weapon, some flying stars. I knew it had taken him a lot of effort to use his eyes to push me away. We fought one on one for what seemed like a century. I knew Doughboy, Liz, and Snowy were wearing out too. We needed help.
I turned my sword back to a wand.
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a small, tiny yellow thing approach. It was suddenly beside me.
"Kero-chan!" I wanted to cry. Help had finally come. Kero, who had worked with Li and Sakura many years before, was in the shape of a stuffed teddy bear, with huge, rounded ears and a bushy lion's tail. He was yellow.
"I have been woken." Kero said. "To help."
Marium began to cry.
"He sat on that plaque as still as stone for forty-five years." She cried. "As still as a stone! And I had to dust him, that was how alive he was!" She cried. Kero, who remember none of it, held out a hand (or arm, rather).
"Ready?" He asked. "The Firey and the Earthy." I searched through my cards.
"Yesh!" I said, lisping. "I do have the Earthy Card. Ariel didn't unleash that one after all! Ready Kero-chan?" Kero nodded. "Okay, er." I winced as I realize I didn't know how to transform him to his ultimate from, Cerberus.
"Just say it." Kero said. "Upon the Power of Our Fiery and Earthy, I command you to turn Kero into the mightiest beast of all, Cerberus!" Kero recited. "You try it." I felt stupid.
Throwing up the card, I twirled my wand, reciting, "Upon the Power of Our Fiery and Earthy, I command you to turn Kero into the mightiest beast of all, Cerberus!" I hit the cards. The light went from them into Kero, who transformed into the golden beast. Cerberus lunged himself at Colton, and they emerged in a wild battle. Snowy and Kelli were still fighting. Liz took on Eriol while Doughboy rushed over to help me with Vash. My hands were raw and my arms sore from battling, but I knew it had to be done.
Finally, Doughboy's lasers managed to hit Vash, who collapsed. A cloud of dust rose. Kelli tried to get to her brother, but in the attempt, her distraction to their battle allowed Snowy to hit her on the head, and she too fainted. We ran to help Liz with Eriol. Pinning Eriol to the wall with the wood card, Liz took her sword and held it up to him.
"Give the Jewels." She said. He threw them in the air. Snowy caught one; Nakita rushed to catch the other. "And now to the Fourth Dimension." She plunged the sword through him. Nakita screamed. Eriol disappeared. Then the Jewel in her hand began to glow.
Marium gasped as her three jewels started to glow. Vash and Kelli's jewel glowed and all of the Jewels gathered in a circle in the middle of the room, hovering above all of us. The Jewels suddenly spun around, and turned into one large ring. The ring went through the prism, turned into a big Jewel, and then the lady Jewel appeared.
She hooked arms with Marium and the two walked into a nearby mirror hanging on the wall. When they returned, they had merged into one: a young girl. She walked over, and suddenly I felt healed. Vash and Kelli got up from their penal positions on the floor.
"We have failed." Vash said slowly. He sat up and looked at Jewel. "How did you become one? I thought you were two people?"
"Two rainbows make one circle." Jewel said. "That's how."
