Yeah, sorry for the huge Inuyasha and Tokyo Mew Mew references; I was running out of ideas. And the Egypt crew (Marik, Rishid, Shadi, and Ishizu) are only in here 'cause i was running out of characters. The updates for this will be kinda slow, so bear with me.

Oh, and to my faithful readers: chapter five of Darkness Rising will be out ASAP. I had a touch of writers block.

TTFN!!!
