A/N: So did you guys enjoy chapter 1: Meeting Your Match? Here's a helpful hint for you, the Kings, Queens, and Jacks that are older than the main characters live in the school for reasons that you may or may not figure out.

The Cards

Averi stepped inside and nodded in appreciation, "Nice place you've got here." She looked around and nodded again.

"Thanks." Club said, "You should meet the Kings, Queens, and Jacks." He walked over to one wall and picked up a sheet of paper. "First off is the Clubs, since I'm the complete leader of the Ace's." He tapped a microphone, "Get the Cards in here you two."

A reply came from the microphone, "Yes sir!" Diamond and Spade sounded enthusiastic to collect their groups.

The microphone went silent and then a gruff voice said, "Hey Ace of Clubs, where do we meet?"

"We meet at the old hideout, you moronic Spade." Club muttered, "Get that girlfriend of yours and get your asses over here."

"Yes sir." The Spade said. The microphone went quiet and footsteps sounded outside. "We've arrived at the old place... I'm surprised it still stands."

"That's because we have a girl who adores the Aces and is willing to keep our stuff in good condition." A girl said. Six other voices agreed.

"We have all but six people here." Club muttered as much to himself as to Averi. He stepped outside, "Were are the Diamonds!" He sighed to calm down and ushered everyone inside.

Averi noticed that each person had either a heart, club, or spade sown on their shirts. The Hearts looked depressed and glanced at her with hope and desperation. The two girls looked at each other excitedly and the boy shook his head and smiled at Averi.

"No flirting with Averi." Club snapped at the male Heart, "We may get you three a leader sooner than you think." The three Hearts perked up. Six sets of footsteps sounded outside. "King Club, check who it is."

A taller boy with light brown eyes and dark blonde hair looked out a peep hole, "Aces Diamond and Spade, along all Diamonds and Queen Spade."

"I find it funny that Tsubasa is the Queen of Spades." The dark haired Heart girl said. "Don't you Anna?"

"I do, I do." Anna, the pink haired one said, "I find that hilarious."

"Your speaking out of turn Nonoko." The male Heart said. Both girls shut their mouths.

Averi took a step back because an image flashed behind her eyes. It was from her alternate world; a tall black haired boy with a star under his eye, a pink haired girl and her dark haired cousin, a girl with light brown pigtails, a boy with black hair and a permanent frown, along with a girl with short black hair and purple eyes. They were all surrounding a blonde boy. It seemed like they were playing a game, until one of them called out to the boy.

"Ruka, watch out!"

Averi sank to her knees and started trembling, "Averi?" Club asked looking at her, "What happened?"

"I heard one of the Hearts say one of the Queen's names and then they said their own." Averi said at a whisper, "It made me half remember a time from before when my memory went blank. It was a group of kids, some in the red skirts and pants and the rest in blue. It was so weird... They called out a name that sparked my memory again. The name is... Mine."

Averi sat up farther, "My name as a guy!" She stood and grasped Club's shoulders. His purple eyes looked confused. The other two Aces glanced at each other.

"What was the name?" Diamond asked. She and Spade strode closer.

"Ruka," All three Ace's eyes lit up. The Kings, Queens, and Jacks backed up at the same time. Averi shook her head to clear her thoughts, "What does it mean?"

"It means," Spade said helping Averi up, "That Tono, Anna, and Nonoko have an Ace."

"If you'll take the position," Diamond said, "Spade never says a full sentence." Club nodded and all three Aces, plus the Hearts, looked at Averi.

"Sure I will." She said. The man they called Tono picked her up and Anna and Nonoko started jumping up and down. Averi smiled and told them to put her down. Tono obeyed and soon Averi was standing in front of the Kings, Queens, and Jacks with the Aces next to her.

Club handed her a small bag and Diamond showed her where to sew them on her shirts. "These are my Diamonds, King Youichi. We call him Yo-chan and this is Queen Nobara. She is literally the Ice Queen. And last but surely not least is Jack Misaki. She is great at multi-tasking."

"Hey." The three said. Nobara frowned, Misaki smiled warmly, and Yo-chan nodded and shook her hand. He said, "We're the icy ones of the Cards." The other two nodded.

"These are my Spades," Anthony said taking Averi's attention away from the King of Diamonds. "King Sakurano, he has three Alices. Queen Tsubasa," Everybody laughed, "Is just special, and Jack Tobita is an illusionist."

The light blonde smiled and pushed his glassed back up on his nose. Tsubasa looked at Averi with a twinkle in his eyes, she noticed the small black star under is eye and gasped quietly. Sakurano looked at her with his glasses on the tip of his nose. The three boys said, "Nice to meet ya."

Averi turned to look at the three who hadn't been introduced, "King Kaname, Queen Sumire, and Jack Koko are the Spades under my control." Bouya said putting his arm over Averi's shoulders. "Kaname can put bits of his soul in his stuffed animals he makes. While Koko can read minds and my Queen can take on cat and dog abilities."

Sumire glared at Averi while Koko and Kaname both smiled widely and kissed her hands. "Hello Ace Heart."

"Hello." Averi replied automatically. Anthony whistled and the others looked at him.

"We need to show Ace Heart the shortcuts and hideouts." Spade said. Averi sighed and snapped her fingers. Spade and Club disappeared.

"Damn it!" Averi exclaimed, "I can only teleport two people at a time." Tono put a hand on her shoulder and told her to try again. She did and everyone went back to the main base, they were right outside of it.

"You can't teleport into buildings can you?" Diamond asked. Averi smiled a knowing smile at her and walked inside.

"What the hell happened!" Spade asked. Diamond walked over to him and leaned against him, "Never mind." He said looking over her shoulder and down her shirt.

"Spade," Club growled in warning, "Not now. Not here." Spade looked up in annoyance.

Averi tried to hide a smile, but Club and Spade both saw it. Club shook his head and turned away. Spade smiled and watched his friend.

Tsubasa said, "Now about those short-cuts?" Club and Spade smiled while Diamond waved her hand. An invisible door clicked. The Queens and Spades left the room while the Kings walked outside. The three older Aces walked over to a wall and pushed. The wall silently slid in and a hole loomed up in front of them.

"Coming?" Spade asked. Heart nodded and followed her new, but somehow old, friends through the hole. The wall slid shut and clicked back into place behind them. Diamond snapped and a ball of fire popped up in her hand.

Diamond led the way down the tunnel and the boys quietly showed the new Ace all the doors and hidden peep holes were. Every so often Diamond showed Heart one and the boys said nothing of others. Peep holes into boys and girls rooms, Heart guessed after looking into one Diamond showed her.
