A/N:I just want to start out saying that I'm not a Clow-hater. I have a crush on him, in fact.

^_^;;

This just started out as a weird idea that slowly developed into a pretty decent plotline that

I've never seen anyone else do, at least not this extensively. Now, on with this vestige of my

insanity! ^_^

Disclaimer: I don't own CCS . . . perhaps I will after I win the lottery. ~_~



Three winged figures stretched out against the afternoon sky. Two dodged, streaked, shot

forward, anything to get ahead of each other. The third simply followed behind with a look of

strained patience on his face.



"ITTAI!!! Cerberus, quit cheating!"



"You should be one to talk! My poor tail..."



"THAT'S NOTHING COMPARED TO MY HAIR!!!"



"Yes, it is! It huuuurrrttts!"



"That's because you're a wimp!"



"AM NOT!!! "



"ARE TOO!"



"AM NOT, TONARGI!!!"



"AM TOO, LEON ESTUPIDO!"



"CUT IT! Both of you! We'll never reach the shore by nightfall if you keep on arguing like this.

Your pointless little races are doing nothing for us, either."



"Aww, come on, Yue! Live for once!"



"I AM living Temichica, thank you very much."



"Quit pretending to be stupid, Yue. You know what Temi-chan means."



"Says the one who can't even tell east from west."



"THAT WAS ON A CLOUDY DAY!!!"



Temichica took the opportunity to slip away while her brothers got into an all too familiar

argument. She swooped down over the lake and stared at her own reflection in the water.

Wild, blonde hair billowed out behind her, crowned by spikes of blue hair on her head, which

were settled in-between her two catlike ears with three colored gems going along the side,

and gold rings on her ear tips. Two massive, sky blue wings and a long tail provided a

backdrop to her soaring figure.



Studying the water, she finally found what she was searching for. Circling back to her

newfound treasure, she dove down and snatched it out of the water and started upwards to

where Yue and Cerberus were still arguing. Tactfully positioning herself over them, she gave

the algae a mighty squeeze, giving them both a liberal dousing in the green water that leaked

out of it.



"AAAAAGGGGGHHHH!!!!!! TEMI-CHAN!!!"



"Temichica, you are dead meat flying!"



Three winged figures stretched against the late afternoon sky. One giggling insanely in the

lead, the other two in pursuit, roaring in rage. A lone being stood at the lake's edge, watching

the group streak off eastward.



"Perfect." he murmured, a cruel smile crossing his lips.



~*~*~*~*~*~*~



"So much for reaching the shore by nightfall," sighed Cerberus.



"Well, I did try to speed things up."



"Too bad your sense of direction couldn't get you out of a barley sack."



"I'd hurt you for that, but I'm too tired."



"Really? Well, I might as well continue with my latest line of insults-"



"Don't push it, Cerberus."



After a wild chase after Temichica, the group had exhausted themselves and landed in an

outcrop of rocks. Yue had gone off to find firewood, leaving Temichica and Cerberus as they

watched the sunset.



Yue heard them exchanging their remarks in the distance and sighed. It seemed great wonder

that they all managed to stay together and retain their sanity, particularly his. Orphaned at a

young age, Yue had always careful to watch over his younger siblings, trying to do the job his

parents were no longer around to perform.



They all never stayed in one place for long, but they still considered what the locals called it,

The New World, their home, which was to be the eventual destination of this journey. All they

had to do was reach the shore and make one extremely long trek across the ocean. He felt

his heart lift a little at being amongst the towering peaks and icy glaciers at home.



Yue bent down to pick up another piece of wood, glanced up and froze.



A/N: Am I evil? Yes I am. :p
