Disclaimer: I don't own CCS, although I REALLY wished I did…-_-anyway, I don't own CCS but I own Aiko, Violet, Ivy, Apple, Suma, Tundra, Gryffindor the toy lion and many other characters that will be appearing later on! And I also don't own Harry Potter.

A long time ago, in a place called Hidora, eight magical rings of great power existed. These rings which have a mind of their own enables the wearer to posses great power and together, these rings enable Hidora to be a peaceful land that prevent invaders to invade. But one day, a crafty wizard found the rings. Before he can destroy the rings, the rings disperse themselves all over Hidora. From that day onwards, the people of Hidora suffered terribly. Until one day the eight magical rings became active again in their hiding place as they have found their rightful owner and they began plotting on how to let themselves be found…

The Legend Of the Rings

Chapter 7: The Three Sisters



" I…I can't move…can't move…anymore…any longer…Oof!"

" HOE! Kero-chan! Daijobu desu ka?" Sakura said.

" Water…I…need…water…"Kero croaked weakly. The group, now traveling to the Pokemon world, and was recently being joined in by four guardians of Eriol and Sakura, are stuck in a *big * desert. Actually, unknown to them, this desert was enchanted to make it look very big when it is actually rather small. But who is behind this spell…ah…we shall see…

" He's faking it…" Spinel and Yue muttered.

Just when Sakura is trying to think of a way to get water for Kero when suddenly, Aiko yelled. " Hey guys! Look! There's a cottage over there!"

And she took off.

The group immediately chased after Aiko, and they found a forest. Aiko seems to be looking for something.

" Where is it? I swore I've seen that cottage…" Aiko said, scratching her head. Sakura was going to tell her that it might be an illusion when the group heard a rustle. A minute later, a girl with auburn hair and wearing a red coat, a red bow and a pink dress pops out of the bush.

" GOTCHA, TUNDRA!"

Everyone stares hard as a miraculous thing happen as the girl turns around…her hair grows longer until it reaches shoulder length. When the girl saw the group, she dazed for a minute… then…

" ONESAAAANNNNNNN!!!!!!"

" Hai?" Another girl with long auburn hair and wearing a dress that looks like a kimono pops up from another bush.

" There…there's SOMEONE HERE!!!" the girl screams even louder. The older girl winces and quickly waves her hand over the screaming girl's head. Immediately after this, the girl became silent, but still had the expression on her face that shows that she is still screaming her head off.

//Hm…a silencing spell…who are these people eh…// Syaoran thought staring hard at the screaming girl and her sister. Sakura, who has been stunned by the scream and had already recovered, said, " Uh…don't mind me saying, but who are you?"

The older girl smiled, then said, " My name is Ivy, and this is my little sister Violet. And this cute little dog here with this cute little red bow is called Tundra. Tundra, go shake paws with them."

The little puppy trots towards the group, then suddenly float into the air, and starts to shake hands/paws. Then it floats back to Ivy's arms and licks her cheek.

" Aww…Tundra is the cutest of all our pets…right Tundra?" Ivy said, cuddling Tundra.

Violet, who have heard that, immediately remove the silencing spell using a casual wave of her hand, and said, " Suma is the cutest…"

" No, it's Tundra."

" Suma"

" Tundra"

" Suma!"

" Tundra!"

" SUMA!"

" TUNDRA!"

And the argument goes on for a few minutes before Sakura got rather tired of it and decides to make an attempt to stop the two sisters. Apparently, she succeeds. Well, she has to or else this fanfic wouldn't continue…

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

At the cottage Aiko had seen…

" VIOLET! Where are my Sumatran Beans?" An orange small little plus-toy tiger with a green bow around his neck yelled as it zooms right in front of Violet's face right after the group step into the cottage.

" Ano…Suma, you have to wait. There are guests here, so you have to behave, ok?" Violet said, sweat dropping at the same time.

Suma turned to look at the group, smiled brightly, and introduced himself " Hello everyone! My name is Suma! Nice meeting you!!" Then float over to Sakura and held out his paw.

Sakura stared from Suma to the paw, smiled at him, and shake fingers/paw with him. Then Suma the tiger proceed to the other people.

He shook fingers/paws with Eriol, who smiled kindly at him and patted his head.

He shook fingers/paws with Syaoran, who stares from him to Kero.

He shook fingers/paws with Tomoyo, whose eyes shone very brightly.

He shook fingers/paws with Aiko, who shook him rather hard.

He shook fingers/paws with Yue, who stared at him all the time.

He shook fingers/paws with Ruby Moon, who squealed at him.

He shook paws with Spinel, who mutters something inaudible.

And finally, he shook paws with Kero, who said, " Yo buddy! Care to play cards with me?"

Suma stared back at him, then grinned and nods. Then the two of them zoomed up the stairs, obviously to Violet's room.

Violet shakes her head, " Ah…don't mind about Suma…he's very hyper active… how about we-" Violet is interrupted by the appearance of a large lion which has a blue bow at the side of his neck.

The lion stared solemnly at the group, then approaches Spinel. Spinel, who thought that the lion is going to attack him, turn into his true form and is about to pounce at the lion when…the lion lifted his paw and patted Spinel Sun's head, leaving Spinel Sun with a surprised face.

The lion is about to lick Ivy when suddenly there came a yell.

"GRYFFINDOR! Come back here and take you bath!"

A minute later, a girl wearing a blue Chinese type of blouse and a blue skirt came running into the room.



The lion stared at the girl with terrified eyes then rushes out of the cottage.



" Hey! Come back here!" the girl yelled, chasing after the lion.

The group sweatdrops while Violet and Ivy sighed. " Erm, that's our elder sister Apple and her pet Gryffindor…" Ivy said, smiling rather weakly.

" Why the name Gryffindor?" Syaoran asked curiously, " And why is there a forest in the middle of the desert?" Aiko demanded.

" How about we go in to the living room and we'll explain to you." Violet said, " I'll get some desserts."

" Gryffindor! COME BACK HERE!" came a yell from outside the house.

" ROAR!" (A/N: Gryffindor said NEVER!)

" Hoe…"

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

" Ok, why is that lion called Gryffindor?"

Syaoran, who obviously is a Harry Potter storybook fan, demanded fiercely for the answer.

Ivy sweatdrops. " Uh…cause my sister like the name? Well actually, she is a Gryffindor fan too…"

" And, why is there a forest in the middle of the desert?" Sakura asked, munching on a piece of cake.

" Actually, the forest is not in the middle of the desert. It is at the end of the desert. You see, we had cast a spell that causes people to think that the desert is very big. It's actually a form of defense- "



" GRYFFINDOR!!!!!!!! COME BACK HERE!!!" Apple's yell came again.



Everyone sweat drops again. Violet clears her throat and went on, " As I was saying, we cast a spell on the desert as we wanted to ward off travelers. The reason is because we had to protect our plantation."



" PLANTATION?" Every one yelled.



" Well, actually, it is sort of a garden…Do you want to take a look?" ivy said, beaming.

" Erm, before that, why does the dressing of the three of you a little…"

" Weird?" Apple yelled from outside.

Everyone jumped. Apple, still chasing Gryffindor, yelled again, " The reason is being that my dressing is the Chinese type while-OOF!"

Everyone stared out of the window, Apple seems to have drop into a hole.

" IVY!! HOW MANY TIMES MUST I TELL YOU NOT TO LET TUNDRA DIG THE HOLE!!!" came a muffled yell.

" OOPS! GOMEN NASAI!" Ivy yelled back.

Violet sweat drops even more, " Anyway, Big sis's clothes follows the Chinese tradition, while second sis's clothes follows the Japanese tradition and my clothes follow the English ones!"

" But why only these three traditions?" Tomoyo asked curiously.



" Ah…Curiosity kills the cat…" Ivy started.

Then Suma yelled from upstairs, " I'M NOT A DEAD!! DOLLY KOR KOR IS!"

" WAK! SUMA! POOK!" Came a deep voice from another room.

Ivy sweat drops even more, " Oh my…anyway, our clothes are like this as…"

" We like it!" Violet said happily.



And everyone, excluding Violet and Ivy, falls over.



" Oh, by the way, who's that Dolly kor kor Suma's talking about?" Eriol asked.



" Oh. That. He is Sis's pet rabbit, and he is also the supervisor of Toyland."



" Toyland?"

" Yep. Our Toyland consists of *all * the toys we own and also some other toys that come and visit. That's why we need our plantation and that defense spell." Ivy said, staring at Apple as she chased Gryffindor.



" May we see the plantation?" Sakura asked eagerly.



" Oh, well, wait a moment. SIS! IS IT ALL RIGHT FOR THEM TO VISIT THE PLANTATION?" Violet yelled, making everyone wince.



" ASK DOLLY!" Came the reply.



Violet shrugged. Then she called the Dolly rabbit down and…he gave the group a surprise.



Dolly the rabbit is a toy rabbit that is pinkish brown (" It's BROWN!" Suma yelled. " POOK SUMA! IT"S PINK!" Retorted Dolly.), has two paws which was each busying holding a carrot, and he wears a waistcoat.

" Dolly the rabbit at your service." Dolly said politely and bowed.



The rest bowed too.



" Hey…isn't Dolly a girl's name?" Syaoran said.



Then, from upstairs, came howls of laughter, followed by the sound of Suma zooming down the stairs.



" HeheheheHAHAHAHAHA!!! Dolly…Heehee…Sister Dolly!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!" The little tiger howled as he rolls in the air, giggling helplessly.



The rabbit glared at it and said, " SHHHINGGG!!! SUMA!! No respect for your senior…and POOK!"



The little orange tiger immediately float up to the rabbit's face and they had a glaring competition. Then the tiger said, " Dolly Kor Kor die already!"

" Pook!"

" Die Already!"

" Pook!"

" Die Already!"

" Pook!"



And everyone, except for Suma, Violet, Ivy and Dolly, falls over.



" You must be *very * busy…what with all * these * things happening at you house…" Sakura asked, smiling weakly.



Violet shrugged. " It's all right. I'm used to it already. Well, you would be if it happens *everyday *…"



And Sakura went crashing on to the floor again.



" Hoee….."

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………



" Ok, here's the plantation."



" WWWOOOOWWW!!!!!!"



Violet smiled. " Impressive isn't it?"

The particular *plantation * they were talking about looks like a really BIG old fashion town. It is full of flowers, trees, bushes, houses, playgrounds and etcetera.



Besides that, there are toys. Real alive toys running around happily. And all of them are soft toys.



" You seem to have a liking for soft toys…" Syaoran said, gapping at the toys.



" Yep, we simply *love * them." Ivy and Violet chorused together.



" So…how did you build this plantation?" Tomoyo asked, stroking the tail of a really large green and friendly dinosaur.

" By magic of course."

" Oh yeah! Um, how did a group of five teenagers be doing in a middle of the desert?" Violet asked. But Ivy stopped her from continuing. Then she turned to the group and said, " You are the ring-bearers, aren't you?"

Everyone one tensed up at once.

" How did you know?" Syaoran snapped.

" And who are you actually?" Eriol demanded.

" By looking at the rings that all of you wear and also by sensing your aura." Violet said.

" And we are the Flowers of Hidora. Also known as the Guardians of the Rings. After the rings dispersed, we had to hide from the evil wizard…." Ivy trailed off.

" So why are the ring-bearers doing here? I thought you are supposed to be on the way to Pokemon world?"

" Kero-chan needed water…"

" Oh…I see…"

Suddenly, Eriol had an idea. " If you know that we are the ring-bearers, you should know about the history of the rings and the thing that is coming after us! Right?"



Ivy hesitated. " Um…all right…we'll tell you a little…"

But Violet stopped her, " Let's ask sis…"

" All right."

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

" Well, you understand? Do you understand the reason why the guardians of yours run away? Do you understand the reason why there are so many enemies? They all add up to one person. And that is Elvis. And I assume you know him, Sakura." Apple said.



Sakura trembled. Her eyes widened when she heard what happened to Elvis. Elvis, her childhood friend when she was … …Sakura clutched her head.

" I…don't remember it…" Sakura muttered.

Violet smiled sadly. She pats Sakura and then said, " That's because you used the Phoenix Feather…"

" The Phoenix Feather?" Syaoran asked worriedly.

" This is the most powerful spell and also the final spell of the ring Winity. It grants the user a wish. But, on one condition, the user had to give up part of his or her memories…" And Violet smiled kindly at Sakura, " That's why she can't remember her days as the princess of Hidora…"



" WHAT? PRINCESS?" Everyone exclaimed and Sakura looked shocked.



Ivy nodded. " I remember she was ever so cheerful and happy before Elvis turned evil … …and I'll never forgive myself for letting her use the Phoenix Feather … …"



Sakura blinked at the three of them, then smiled, " Daijoubu! I would try and remember them!"

And the three sisters smiled.

" Thank you, mistress Sakura …" they muttered in an inaudible voice.



Then the group went to sleep, with Suma and Kero pulling Spinel into the kitchen, as they intend to stuff sugar into his mouth and also Nakuru helping out.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………



The next day, as the group is about to leave the house, Violet gave each of them an invisible small mike so that they can contact them (the sisters) and also each other (the ring-bearers).



Then, as they wave good-bye to Apple, Ivy, Violet, Gryffindor, Dolly, Suma, Tundra and the rest of the toys, Sakura had a great secret.



// Oh my god … … I don't believe it…//



Sakura had remembered everything from her past and had found a terrible truth ... … …

" HOE! Sorry!!" Sakura said.

" It's all right, …" the boy with the hat and a Pikachu said.

When he looked up, his and Syaoran's face lit up.

" Ash!"

" Syaoran!"

And the two hugged each other.

" Haven't seen you two for ages! Where had you been?" Ash asked.

"Uh…well…" Eriol started nervously.
