In other news, we decided to go the FABULOUS route (AKA the plot>character route)

Spoiler for Secuence 0 - Welcome 1 - 3:

Spoiler for Secuence 1 - Re:Learning 1:

You wake up sweating.

You know that is the dream's fault, or nightmare's fault. Nevertheless you wake up in your room. Or at least you think is your room since you still can't remember things correctly. You do remember your name so at least is not complete amnesia. So you decide to check the room. There is not much though. You only see a TV, a laptop, some books, mostly history books, and a wardrobe. There is no photos of yourself or family or anything to remind you of your past. You wonder why you don't have anything to remind of the good times you must had. Or why you could not have something of your family. You leave your room, the door is thankfully not rainbow colored like the one in your dream, and see the rest of your home.

Before anything else happens, you search for someone else in the little apartment. Of course considering that is small, it only has another room, a kitchen, a living room and the bathroom, your search ends before you get your hopes up. Which may be for the best because you didn't find anyone. The other room is empty, the kitchen is completely clean, so you either are clean freak or you don't cook, the living room is quite bland, only two sofas and a small table and the bathroom, which has supplies. Once again you don't find anything that could make you remember. And if it wasn't for the feeling that the place gives you, you could swear that this isn't your home.

A ring on the door snaps you out of your deductions. You don't know what to do now. On one hand you could open the door and wish that the person on the other side knows you, so you can ask about yourself and dispel the mystery. On the other hand, you could make the complete stranger on the other side freak out.

Another ring on the door makes you stop wondering and simply open the door.

“'Good morning Yuuno-kun.” You see a girl with short brown hair and blue eyes. While you don't remember meeting her, you know that she is slightly mischievous, and your best friend. Or something like that.

“Good morning Hayate-san.” You realize that you know her name. Yagami Hayate, who is your classmate and 'best' friend... in high school at least. You don't remember with clarity much of the time you have spent with her, but you have a general grasp on the circumstances and you hope that you remember at least half of those times together.

You hear her sigh and mutter “You always have to be so formal.” You wisely decide to ignore the comment. Suddenly she looks at you with surprise and you get nervous. There is something in how she is looking at you that makes you wonder if you did something out of your normal behavior. “Say Yuuno-kun, why are you still in pajamas? We have school today you know.”

You kind of remember that she is right. Well it does sound logical that, since she is your classmate, you need to have a class together for that to be. “Um, sorry I just woke up. Give me a second okay?” You don't wait for an answer, you kind of know what she is going to say, something like 'honestly you should not sleep so late, stop reading those books', and go to your room. You open the wardrobe and see the uniform, a red blazer and gray pants, not so bad but not that good either, and you undress and dress as soon as possible. You decide not to comb your hair, since it isn't that bad, and to skip breakfast, not knowing who you are doesn't help your appetite, so on more or less five minutes, you are ready to leave. You of course don't forget the bag with all your books. “Ready.” She smiles at you, the you-shouldn't-do-this-again smile by the way, and starts to walk away. You walk slightly behind of her, you have a vague hint of where are you going but you decide to be cautious.

The trip to the school is quiet so it lets you think about whatever is happening to you. While you still don't know much about your past, your memories have been returning. Well you think memories but it's more like feelings. Certainly you feel that Hayate is your best friend and you do know somethings about her. Not really personal stuff but her hobbies at least. And then there was the nightmare, because it can't be other thing, which didn't made sense but you get the feeling that is important somehow.

While you wondered and wondered, seriously losing your memory and having nightmares are fuel to start thinking who knew, you finally arrive at the school. While you are still confused about the whole lack of memory, you decide to act normal. Well what you think is normal anyway.

Yeah but she knows what the chances of that actually happening are, I mean Xellos seems to routinely go out of his way to make sure they don't get killed.

shiroi mahotsukai · 2010-12-21, 19:12

Sorry for the double post but I realised I haven't done anything festive yet.

So here we have "Twas The Night Before Christmas For Riot Force Six"

Spoiler for poem:

Twas the night before Christmas, for Riot Force Six
Busy workers were leaving, their feelings were mixed.
Many people had told them to be out of there,
For something this night had been planned for with care.

The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of training drills danced in their heads.
And Fate in her bedclothes, and me in mine too,
For to lie down and sleep was what we wanted to do..

When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.

The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below.
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
A sleigh and a dog, that was dressed like a deer.

With a sweet little driver looking ready to sing,
I knew in a moment who’d planned the whole thing.
More rapid than an eagle her vehicle it came,
And she whistled, and shouted, and called the dog by his name!

“Now then Zafira you mustn’t damage the roof
Your not a real deer so you haven’t a hoof
Be silent tonight as you have always been
I’m sure you know why we must not be seen.”

As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky.
So up to the house-top the dog-deer it flew,
With the sleigh full of Toys, and ‘St Nicholas’ too.

And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof
The scratching and scraping of each large not-hoof.
As I drew in my head, and was turning around,
Down the chimney the driver came with a bound.

She was dressed all in fur, from her head to her foot,
And her clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot.
A bundle of Toys she had flung on her back,
And she looked like a peddler, just opening her pack.

Her eyes-how they twinkled! Her smile oh so merry!
Her cheeks were like roses, her nose like a cherry!
Her cute little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
And the beard on her chin was as white as the snow.

The ghost of black wings still shone at her back,
And feathers still fell, wreathing the sack.
She had a sweet face but lacked a little in height
Still seeing her there was a wonderful sight!

In her suit short and round, like a little old elf,
I laughed when I saw her, in spite of myself!
A wink of her eye and a twist of her head,
Soon gave me to know I’d hit the nail on the head.

She spoke not a word, but went straight to her work,
Hung and filled several stockings, then turned with a jerk.
And laying her finger aside of her nose,
And giving a nod, up the chimney she rose!

She sprang to her sleigh, to her dog gave a whistle,
And away the two flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard her exclaim, ‘ere she drove out of sight,
"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!"

Would it help at all if I said the cat probably gets the easiest, quickest happy ending than the two characters do?

No, that sounds about right. The cat gets off easier, it's the people who suffer. What fun is there in tormenting something that's not sentient enough to really appreciate it?

Two ways of interpreting "easiest, quickest happy ending":

1) Kitty dies quickly. No torturous drawing out of the process, just nice clean snuffing out of life.

2) Kitty lives a cute, snuggly and long life, while the humans are the ones who are sadly affected by giving away a symbol of such innocence and happiness. With metaphors about how giving the cat away lost them their light and luck, leading to all the ruin later on....but the cat gets the happy ending

Well, the story arc started in "Stray" is supposed to be three-shot, so we've got two more shorts until the end.

Hopefully I'll get some time tomorrow to work on the second part. I got started on it while I was in school, but I got rid of it because for some reason I disliked it.

Since all of Season 1 is up on FF.Net, I will no longer link to Season 1 after this post. Season 1 A's Jump New Parts 1-35 New Part 36 New Part 37 Spoiler for Blood That Flows - New Part 38: Groaning as she woke up, she looked around and shivered slightly. "What's..." She stopped as she felt her bare arms. Gasping, she sat up and looked down at herself and her face turned a bright red. "WHAT IS THIS?!" She was wearing black socks that went past her knees, a pair of black panties were on her hips, though, from the chill on her butt, she could tell that they didn't cover much, her body had a black corset that went from just above her navel to just over her nipples. Her face was a bright red as she realized that she had a collar around her neck. "Why is this happening to me?" "Ah, Filia." A familiar, and welcome, voice spoke to her. Getting up, she turned and saw the Supreme Elder, much younger than she recalled, walking towards her with a smile on her face. "I see that your new wardrobe is on and fits nicely." Filia's eyes suddenly welled with tears. "You... You knew about this?" "Knew about this?" The Supreme Elder chuckled as he turned and gestured for Filia to follow him. "I authorized it. We need your help in breaking a barrier, Filia." He turned and saw that Filia was following him, though she had one hand trying to cover her butt and the other one trying to cover her breasts. "Why are you trying to hide your beauty, Filia? You're quite lovely." "But, Supreme Elder..!" "Dyn." He smiled at her. "My name is Dyn, you may call me that." "Dyn, please... At least get me a pair of pants to cover my legs, or a coat, it's chilly in here. And..." She looked around, confused. "Where are we?" The two of them stopped in front of a door and Filia could feel herself blushing horribly as she felt the eyes of all the male Dragons that had followed Dyn upon her body. Dyn spread his arms out wide. "The temple of the Ancient Dragons, Filia. We need you to break the barriers to the inside for us." Filia's eyes widened as she took several steps back, her chest bouncing slightly with each step as she held her hands in front of her nervously. "Bu.. But... You created those barriers, you told us that to come her was forbidden." "And yet, I still taught you how to break these barriers, Filia." He smiled at her softly, though, to Filia, he looked different now, twisted, mean and evil, as did all the Dragons, who were now, in her eyes, leering at her as they grinned. "So, help your old mentor out, one last time." He walked up to her and held a hand out to her. "NO!" Filia slapped his hand away. "You... You aren't the Supreme Elder I grew up knowing!" With tears falling out of her eyes, she turned and fled as fast as she could, even with the snow coming up to her knees, she ran. "Should we go after her, Dyn?" A male Dragon asked as they watched Filia, with great interest, run away. "She knows too much now." Dyn shook his head slightly. "No need to. That collar will keep her from transforming into her Dragon form." He idly wondered why Lord Dynast kept such a thing, and why Sherra just happened to have it to give to him. "Did we need to strip her down and put her in those clothes?" Another Dragon asked as he tilted his head to look at Filia's fleeing form. "Does it matter? The view is nice." "Enough." Dyn spoke up to them. "Sherra has left us to our own devices for now. We must make plans to get Ragudo Mezegis and Gorun Nova for master Dynast. Filia will return her, whether by her own free will, or by force. But for now, we must get the other Weapons of Light." "What are your orders, Dyn?" The Dragons asked and turned to him after Filia fell down a slope. "We will finish what we started during the Koma Wars." Dyn narrowed his eyes. "First, we must retrieve Ragudo Mezegis from that Ancient Dragon... Then we shall finish off that race for good. Come." The Dragons walked free of the Temple, before transforming and flying off. (---) Filia shivered, she had tried to transform, tried to use flying magic, but found that most everything she could use was blocked for some reason. "Why is this happening to me?" She asked, tears falling down her face as she fell to her knees. "I was a good Gold Dragon. Lord Vrabazard, why? Why must I suffer like this?" She shivered as a cold wind blew across her body. "I need..." She looked straight ahead as she got up and started moving again. "I need..." She tripped on a tree root and fell, face-first, into a snow-bank, kicking up the snow and covering her flesh with it. "I need help." Filia sobbed as she started to crawl forward. "I need... That one... Those humans... They... They'll help..." At least, she hoped they would help. She couldn't do this, not on her own. At this point, she'd even be willing to let that perverted boy see her naked if they'd help her free the Supreme Elder from whatever it was that was controlling him. Groaning, she got back to her feet and stumbled forward still, before her feet slipped and she fell down another slope, sliding and bouncing all over the place, until she came to a stop. Groaning, she looked up and tried to move, before she just gave up and flopped down. She was just too tired. She didn't know how long she was out, but an orange glow caught her attention and managed to get her up. Looking up, she swore she saw some figures in front of her. But, no, that couldn't be right, no one knew where she was at. It must have been the cold getting to her. Still... That warmth was nice, and the hand being offered to her... She didn't know what was going on, but she thought that it would be better to take the offered hand than to freeze to death. "So warm..." She sighed in relief. (---) The lights were low, considering that electricity hadn't been invented on this world just yet, it was understandable. Lina was sitting at a table downstairs while looking up at where the rooms were in the inn and sighing heavily. Sylphiel had assured her that her daughters and Amelia would be just fine after sleeping off the effects of that spell. Right now, Gourry and Zelgadis were watching over the rooms and Lina really wished that she had someone to ask what was going on. She watched as Shiro went back up the stairs to check on his daughters, not that she blamed him, she had been up there eight times in the past hour. She turned to Chrono and tried to take her mind off of what must have happened. "Tell me something, what's going on with the Blast Sword?" Chrono sighed as he looked at her seriously. "We have it back on the ship, we're analysing the metal now. Mary's working on a sheath that will be able to hold it, at the very least, we can put it in a repulsor field to keep it from slicing up a person's leg." Of course, Mary wanted to study that thing back on Mid-Childa, not that he blamed her of course, to see if she could mass-produce the thing. "That's good and..." She turned her head and narrowed her eyes as she felt a prescience make itself known. "What is he doing here?" Really, she just wanted one good reason, just one good reason, and she'd hurt him. "Who?" Sylphiel blinked as the doors to the inn opened up and Yuuno stepped in, followed by Lyos and, carrying someone over his shoulder, was Xellos. Sylphiel blushed as she saw the person that Xellos was holding was wearing thong underwear, and not much else. "Excuse me." Yuuno walked up to the innkeeper. "We have someone who's very sick right now, can you get us a room for the night?" The innkeeper looked at him, then at Xellos, who was smiling happily, before looking at Lyos. "I dunno, three guys just bringing in a woman who's wearing nothing but underwear? Sounds like trouble to me." "But!" Yuuno started to say, before he heard someone clearing their throat. "Excuse me, boys... Why don't you take Filia upstairs and put her in the room with my daughters? And, Xellos..." Lina gave him such a dirty look that even he found himself gulping slightly. "Do anything to them and I'll take you outside and show you just what I do to people who hurt my little girls." He nodded, despite himself and made his way up the stairs. Lina sighed and nodded as Yuuno and Lyos joined them. "I heard you got swallowed by fire." Yuuno rubbed the back of his head and groaned as his head suddenly smacked the table. "What was that for?" He asked as he glared at Chrono. "For making me think you were dead, idiot." Yuuno blinked a few times, before nodding at him. "Sorry. But, yeah, apparently Vrabazard decided to..." "Wait, wait, wait..." Lina held up a hand and stared at him. "You've met Fire Dragon King Vrabazard?" Yuuno nodded. "Well, that's unusual, the Claire Bible mentioned that that gods typically don't take interest in human affairs." She blinked at the looks she was getting. "What? Let's see you forget when the memories of a god talk to you directly and explain everything that it can about Holy magic and Chaos magic and who the Lord of Nightmares is." Lina might not have remembered everything, but having what remnants of Ragradia speak to her directly was something that she wasn't going to forget. She looked up as Xellos materialized right next to her, though the others were startled at his sudden appearance. "Alright Xellos, I need information, and you're going to give it to me, got it?" Xellos looked slightly uncomfortable at that. "I suppose, but you know that there's information that I just can't give to humans, even one such as yourself, miss Lina." "Mazoku secrets, yare yare." Lina waved him off. "But, for now, just why was Filia in that getup?" Xellos shrugged at that question. "Honestly, I don't know. We happened to find her like that." Lina blinked and stared stupidly at him. "Uh... You don't know?" "Not at all. Though, the poor dear seems to have most of her magic sealed away for some reason." He shook his head. "Honestly, it's almost like a Mazoku put a curse on her." "Great, so she's powerless AND she's trying to seduce boys." Lina mentally smirked as she saw Chrono's face turn red, even as he turned away from her. "Alright then, just what's going on here, Xellos? I thought it was just these Overworlders and Valgaav that were going to be problems. Now the Gold Dragons seem to think I'm the greatest enemy of all time and Amelia mentioned something about the Supreme Elder becoming evil." "Um, actually, Miss Amelia said that he had fallen down the path of injustice and needed to face the hammer of justice." Sylphiel blushed as Lina rolled her eyes. "Yes, well, that. Know anything about it?" "I'm sorry to say, but I don't know too much about it, honestly." Xellos shook his head at her. "However, the timing of the attack on your daughter, the fact that Dynast and Dolphin's servants are both involved, and the sudden increase of power in the Gold Dragons under Vrabazard, including," he pointed at Yuuno, "this kid's sudden ability to use said Shinzoku's Holy magic can't be a coincidence." "Wait, Dynast... AND Dolphin?!" Lina hissed, her pupils shrinking as she thought about such powerful entities getting involved. She couldn't imagine that Dynast would let her cast the Giga Slave like Hellmaster had, and Dolphin was said to have complete control over any sort of liquid on the planet and could either freeze or boil all forms water around her with a thought. If she had to fight either of them, well... It wasn't a pretty thought. "Yes, well, I'm not sure that either of them are personally involved." Xellos stood up. "You'll have to excuse me, I need to check on something." He disappeared, leaving Lina to stare ahead blankly. "...Who is Dynast and Dolphin?" Lyos asked. Honestly, in his opinion, Dolphin didn't sound like someone who was that dangerous. "Two of the three Mazoku Lords still alive in this world. You could have an entire clan of Dragons at your side, Rezo the Red Priest with you, my sister, and Xellos, and you'd still lose to any of them." She saw the blank, but horrified looks, from all of them and nodded. "Yes, they're that powerful." She turned to Chrono and Yuuno, who were pale as they thought about this development. "Remember Death Bringer? Well, there's THREE beings that are almost as powerful as him, far older than us, and aren't likely to let us cast a spell that can crush them. So, just be careful, okay?" She didn't think that Zelas was going to get involved. If Xellos was any indication of his master, then she was more content to sit on the side-lines, for now. "L-sama, damn it." Lina cursed softly. She really missed the days when the worst she had to worry about was Naga's laugh, a minor Mazoku named Joyrock and hoping she had enough to pay for food. __________________ My fics Due to certain things, I am not here, find me over on TFF.

And Fate in her bedclothes, and me in mine too, For to lie down and sleep was what we wanted to do.. When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter. Away to the window I flew like a flash, Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash. The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below. When, what to my wondering eyes should appear, A sleigh and a dog, that was dressed like a deer. With a sweet little driver looking ready to sing, I knew in a moment who’d planned the whole thing. More rapid than an eagle her vehicle it came, And she whistled, and shouted, and called the dog by his name! “Now then Zafira you mustn’t damage the roof Your not a real deer so you haven’t a hoof Be silent tonight as you have always been I’m sure you know why we must not be seen.” As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly, When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky. So up to the house-top the dog-deer it flew, With the sleigh full of Toys, and ‘St Nicholas’ too. And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof The scratching and scraping of each large not-hoof. As I drew in my head, and was turning around, Down the chimney the driver came with a bound. She was dressed all in fur, from her head to her foot, And her clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot. A bundle of Toys she had flung on her back, And she looked like a peddler, just opening her pack. Her eyes-how they twinkled! Her smile oh so merry! Her cheeks were like roses, her nose like a cherry! Her cute little mouth was drawn up like a bow, And the beard on her chin was as white as the snow. The ghost of black wings still shone at her back, And feathers still fell, wreathing the sack. She had a sweet face but lacked a little in height Still seeing her there was a wonderful sight! In her suit short and round, like a little old elf, I laughed when I saw her, in spite of myself! A wink of her eye and a twist of her head, Soon gave me to know I’d hit the nail on the head. She spoke not a word, but went straight to her work, Hung and filled several stockings, then turned with a jerk. And laying her finger aside of her nose, And giving a nod, up the chimney she rose! She sprang to her sleigh, to her dog gave a whistle, And away the two flew like the down of a thistle. But I heard her exclaim, ‘ere she drove out of sight, "Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!" Spoiler for Authors Notes: I tried to change it as little as I could to keep to the flavour of the original. (On that note do not ask me why they still have chimneys on Mid-Childa.) I was never that good at poetry so I hope it'll suffice. __________________ "The eyes are the windows that let us gaze upon the soul" "When desperate there are two choices: Lock shields for the last stand or draw your sword for the final charge" "There are no winners or losers, there are only the living and the dead."
