Hi everyone! I'm back again. Here's the warnings and whatnot.

Warning: In later chapters, cursing and sexually humored jokes (Very few of those, but they're in there.). That should pretty much be it. If anyone finds anything else they'd like me to warn against, let me know (IN A NICE MANNER! ^_^) and I'll be sure to add it in. Oh, and this deals with magical things and whatnot, so, if you're against even people writing about multiple Gods and Goddesses, I guess this isn't for you. I repeat, IF YOU DON'T LIKE WRITINGS ABOUT MAGIC AND GODS AND GODDESSES, DON'T READ THIS FIC. And if you do, and you don't like it, or if you just don't like it, please don't flame me. I have little enough self-esteem as it, and I can't take that. I had posted another fic about a week ago, and then pulled it that night because of the horrible flames I got, so, no flames.

Disclaimer: I don't own G Gundam, dammit! No matter how much I would like to, I never will. It will always belong to the genius that created it! (And we love that person to death!) However, I have assimilated Domon and Kyoji into my male harem, so……. ^_^ (That would be a joke between some of my friends and my self. Don't mind it.) Also, I don't own any Gundam Wing characters that I make a reference to all of two or three times in this fic. (Again, DAMN! ^_^)

And for my one reviewer, so  far, Webster, he/she requested that I do a *why am I writing this*, at least, that's what I think he wanted, so, here it is:

I'm writing this because the idea popped into my head, I thought it was neat, so I started writing. That was in December. :smiles: I'm almost finished with it now. So, now I'm posting it. My friends here like it, so, I hoped people on ffn would too. The names you see in the fic (the original characters) I stole from my friends and whatnot, but, it's all imaginary. :winks at her friends: Thanks for the use of your names! Well, here you go!

All or Nothing

Chapter 2

            The walk to Bekah's spell room was a solemn one, silent until Achika sped up to match her pace with Bekah's and asked, "So, uh, what exactly are we going to do?"

            "Well," Bekah answered, "I'll have to find the spell that fits what we want to do exactly. I have a good idea of where it is, but, it may take a little while to find, with all of the books I have in my spell room."

            "Right, but what am I supposed to do? I don't see what I have to do with this. I don't even know why I'm still following you all!" Achika smiled.

            "Well, Achika, you'll help me with the spell, and you'll help me set up the area we're going to be performing the spell in. Ah!" Bekah stopped suddenly as a castle came into view, looming gracefully on the horizon. "Here we are." Bekah smiled proudly. "My castle."

            Bekah began walking again, with her sisters following her, until they got to the base of the castle. She stopped Achika and Cat as they came upon the old, but strong-looking castle. It was made of large stone blocks, some of which had slightly eroded over the many millennia it had stood erect in that world, giving it a powerful look that commanded respect, yet looked as if you could reach out and grab a handful of the millennias of wisdom that lay within. Many towers and steeples rose up from the top of the castle, balconies were everywhere, and the large draw-bridge entrance only added to its formidable look.

            There was something strange about the place though, strange being whatever you could find that seemed particularly out of the ordinary—this was a world of Gods, Goddesses, and mythical beings after all—the moat. At first glance, it looked just like any ordinary moat, anything a normal castle of this size would have, if it were a respectable castle with any pride, anyway. Except for, well, the water, it couldn't be, wasn't, water. It was opaque yet transparent, thick and heavy yet light as air and it definitely was not blue. It was silvery, yet like an opal, for when any light shone upon it, it reflected the most beautiful colors of the rainbow, and a myriad more in their most radiant glory.

            "Bekah?" Cat asked. "Bekah, is this stuff?!"

            "Dreams." Bekah replied calmly. "What you are looking at is what dreams are made of."

            "These are dreams?" Cat asked, bewildered.

            "Well, they're not quite dreams yet…"

            "What do you mean?"

            "This is just what we make them out of." Bekah sighed, not expecting to have to explain what she did to her little sister. "We take some of this inside every morning and night, look at what people's hopes and dreams are, and then mold this into those dreams and send them out to the sleeping people."

            "Ooooh! Coolies!" Cat grinned.

            "Cat, you're to easily amused for your own good. Did you know that?" Bekah hung her head, exasperated.

            "Yup!" Cat grinned even more, and taking a cue from Bekah, she spread her wings out and said, "I know I am!"

                       Bekah shook her head and looked at her two sisters. "We'll fly up to that balcony," she pointed to a balcony, one of the tallest ones, that sat between two towers, "to get into my spell room. That way, we won't have to put up with my Dream Court questioning or bothering us."

With that said, Bekah snapped out her own wings and took off to the sky, Cat following her, picking Achika up along the way. Achika kicked and struggled against Cat, yelling, "I CAN FLY ON MY OWN, STUPID! NOW LET ME G-AHHHHHH!!!!!!" Cat, grinning like one of the Cheshire variety, had dropped Achika, like she's "asked." A few seconds later, a very peeved Goddess floated back up, glaring daggers at Cat. "I hate you and I will get you back!" Achika hissed venomously.

"Not when I'm in the G Gundam universe!" Cat shot back, sticking her tongue out and then grinning again, looking very reminiscent of her husband, Duo, Shinigami (1). Cat stopped grinning and opened her eyes when she didn't hear her sister's reply. A closed, saddened look had shadowed Achika's face, startlingly different from the normally very cheery disposition that ran her face.

"A-Ach-" Cat stuttered. She was cut off as Achika pulled ahead of her. Cat's face fell and she murmured, "Oh, Achika…" She noticed Bekah and Achika talking quietly together, and so she rolled over so that she was looking up at the sky, and then closed her eyes, the sunlight that filtered through them casting a dim light into her field of vision. She turned over everything she was about to do in her mind. All the people that loved her, all the possessions in her life that she held dear. Her throat became tight, but she swallowed a few times and relaxed it. Then, she actually smiled. "Cat-chan…" She told herself. "It's all gonna be okay. You'll be back here in no time, with everyone waiting for you…"

Cat rolled herself back over again so that she was flying normally again and soon after touched down onto the balcony floor and folded her wings as she followed her sisters inside the library-like room. Bekah immediately busied herself in finding the book needed for the spell, and Achika looked like she was trying to find something to do, and from the frantic manner she was trying in, it looked like she wanted it so she could hide something.

"Achika?" Cat stepped forward and gently grabbed Achika's arm. She turned her a bit, and even in the dim lighting of the spell room, Cat could tell that Achika's eyes were slightly red and puffy.

"Ach- Uh- He-Hey! Wha-What's wrong?!" Cat asked, shocked.

"Nothing! Just some dust in my eye!"

"Oh well that's the biggest bunch of bullshit I've ever heard out of you! I thought you could lie better than that!"
            "Well, it's not exactly like you have to ask!" Achika snapped. Immediately, she backed down her harsh tone, and before Cat realized what had happened, she had flung herself onto her, bawling, "It's not fair goddammit!" she yelled, beating her fist on Cat, still crying. "It's not fair…….." Cat put her arms around her older sister and stood there, rocking her gently. "Achika-chan, it'll be okay. I'll be back before you know it!"

"How can you say that?!" Achika looked up at Cat with a tear-streaked face. "You don't know that!!" She was sobbing again, her breath hitching. "You're just gonna leave all of us! You're gonna throw this-this life—everything you have here—us—all away!? Why?!!?"

"No, Achika! Never!" Cat exclaimed. "We'll always be together, but I've got to do this for myself."

"I-I know that, but… Why this spell?! Can't you just do another one, one that would let you come back safely if he doesn't fall in love with you?"

"Achika," Cat distanced herself from her sister, but still held onto her shoulders, "I've got to do this. If I can't get him to fall in love with me in a mortal state, for who I really am, then that would mean that this world is just a lie!"

"How so?" Achika stood puzzled, not seeing her sister's logic.

"I don't want to have had my husbands or lovers fall in love with me because I'm just another pretty face and a nice body that happens to have a good personality."

"That's not so! You know it!" Achika objected.

"Sometimes you have to wonder." Cat smiled wryly.

"Hmph." Achika snorted. "Whatever. I don't see your reason. Domon might not fall in love with you, just because he doesn't feel anything for you. It has nothing to do with him! What kind of test is this?"

"Achika," Cat said pleadingly, "you're just going to have to trust me on this one."

"I've got it." Bekah showed up beside the two of them and said, "I found the book. Let's go." She waved her hand, and the two Goddesses followed her to a large gircle in the center of the room (2). Bekah directed Cat into the center of the circle and Achika to the bottom of it. She herself took a place at the top of the circle. As Cat stood in the middle, holding her arm and biting her lip, it was obvious to her sisters that she was nervous.

Bekah waved her arm and numerous candles, already lit, floated through the air and settled themselves, still hovering slightly, around the edge of the circle. As a sudden, powerful smell of inscents began to permeate the air around them, Bekah spoke saying, "Now Achika, don't try and concentrate on saying this spell. The words will come to you, so long as you keep your mind clear and open. Got that?" Bekah winked and smiled.

            "Hai!" Achika nodded her head firmly.

            "And you, Cat," Rebekah turned her attention to Cat, "you must concentrate your hardest on where you are going, and what you are about to do, because if you don't, this spell will fail. Do you understand?"

            "H-hai!" Cat nodded firmly as well and closed her eyes, beginning to concentrate.

            "Here we go!" Bekah shouted. To room at once seemed to perk up and sparkle, as if the dust particles in the room had turned to crystals and were shimmering with help from the light that was streaming into the room from outside. From nowhere it seemed, a fierce, powerful gust of wind started to flow all around them, whipping their hair and clothes all about them. Over this loud roar, Bekah began to chant, closing her eyes and putting her arms and hands, palm out, towards Cat. Achika followed suit, furrowing her brow. And the spell began:

"A wish for one to show you love,

For who you really are,

Will take you from this world above,

To one in uncertain worlds afar—"

            The winds sped up and all three sisters cried out. Hold on! They mentally reassured each other.

"—So sure in your decision,

This spell has no remission,

We'll strip you of your power,

You'll become a bare and naked flower,

Caught in Winter's cold, unforgiving stare.

The time limit is a month,

No more, no less, that's it.

And in-between,

Your powers unseen,

Will lie latent in submission.

Get True Love's real kiss first from him,

Or face a consequence unwitnessed.—"

            The gust of wind grew stronger still and a faint, golden aura began to build around the girls.

"your memories of this life here,

By Death's scythe, will be sheared,

And your soul's sweet song be silenced,

By this unneeded act of violence.—"

            The auras, which had been steadily building through the last part of the spell they had read, erupted around them in a blaze of the brightest gold ever seen. Cat brought her arms in close to her body, her hands, which were in fists, were tucked up under her chin, and she screamed.

            Cat! Achika yelled mentally.

            Hold on a little longer! Bekah begged.

            Achika and Bekah mustered up the last of their strength to finish the spell, and Cat mustered up the last of her resolve to concentrate.

"—But get the kiss,

And your true form no longer shall you miss.

You'll come back to this word's shore,

To live happily forever more."

            As soon as the last syllable of the spell fell from their lips, the candles around the circle erupted into a blazing inferno. A solid wall of flame whose scorching heat was felt throughout the room. In the middle of the twisting wall of flame, Cat screamed out, "DOMON!" Suddenly, the wall of fire fell, pushed out, and vanished. The wind dissipated and the wall of fire fell down, pushed out along the ground, and then vanished, much like a heavy curtain falling to the ground and the air it pushes out of its way rushing along the floor, and the auras vanished. Both Bekah and Achika then fell forward onto their knees and slumped to the ground. Weakly, they lifted their heads to see if Cat was still there or not. There was nothing there but two feathers from her wings. Achika and Bekah crawled toward each other, held each other, and began to cry. They rocked together and then Achika picked up the feathers. She handed one to her sister and said, "I guess she made it."

            Bekah smiled through her tears, took the feather, and choked out, "I guess so." She hugged her sister. "I guess so." Mentally, she added, as she held the feather tight, Good luck Cat-chan. Wherever you are.

Author's notes:

1. Shinigami (if you all didn't know) means "God of Death" or "the God of Death"

2. Think Cardcaptor Sakura circles. If you don't know what those are, look up CCS on the web. I'm sure you'll find a picture.

I hope you enjoyed this chapter! Please review!
