Disclaimer: I own nothing. I have nothing. Now get off my case!

Author's Notes: As much as it pains me to say this to you, but Back Through Time is on a temporary hiatus. I don't know what happened. I just lost my thread on it. I'm really sorry. But don't fret, for as soon as I locate the three muses responsible for the inspiration for Back Through Time, I'll resume writing. Again, gomen nasai.

Before anything else, I would just like clarify a few points. For those of you who are avid fans of my bud Shinrai's 'The Assignment', I would just like to let you know that 'Assassin' and 'The Assignment' were both born one rainy evening while Shinrai and I were on the phone. I kinda told her that I had this crazy idea of turning Syaoran-kun into a cold-blooded assassin involved in a strange government conspiracy, and she told me that the idea has been playing in her mind for some time. With that said, I am personally acquitting myself of any lawsuits. I did NOT plagiarize this fic, nor did I steal Shinrai's idea. So there.

Oh, and yeah. Shinrai and I talked about it and we agreed that, if it would make you feel better, you can compare our works and see which one is the best. Satisfied?

And another thing. This MAY or MAY NOT be a GWing/CCS crossover. I've only gotten as far as the third chapter with this before I uploaded. What do you think?


ASSASSIN by rei-chan

PROLOGUE: Discovery of a Lifetime

"Professor! Professor!"

Kinomoto Fujtaka looked up from the documents he had been poring over when he heard the frantic cries. Getting to his feet, the handsome man made his way out of the dilapidated tent that served as his make-shift 'study' and headed towards the dig, squinting againts the sun's harsh glare in search of his caller. Seeing one of his men waving at him from well over the other side of the dig site, the forty-year-old man sighed tiredly, "What is it, Jiiro? You know well enough not to disturb me while I'm working."

Hato Jiiro, one of Fujitaka's countless young followers, jiggled a leg impatiently as he waited for the older man's approach. "I know, sensei. But, I promise you that this will be worth the disturbance! Now, hurry up!"

Grumbling under his breath at the almost commanding tone of his student's voice, Fujitaka hurried forward, his curiousity piqued when he noticed that almost all his men were gaping in astonishment at a big hole on the ground. Reaching the area, he looked down, well aware of the superior smirk that had suddenly spread across Jiiro's face. What he saw made his mouth drop open in shock.

"Kami-sama," the brown-haired professor breathed out as he reached inside his pocket for his celphone. "This can't be true!"

Ooh!!! A cliffy! I wonder what would happen next...

So, what do you think? Is this fic worth all my sweat or not? Please R&R!!!
