I didn't have a disclaimer or author's notes on the first two chapters because I forgot to write them in. So they are here!
A/Ns: This is just a fun fanfic, so I am bending the rules a bit.
-First of all, this ridiculous situation would leave many of the extreme purists shaking their heads in dismay. That's okay, but I'd like to see them relax and nod for once. Those muscles have got to be under-used.
-Val will show up, and will be about ten years old. Now, I now some people will say: "But Amanda, the Dragon egg will take fifty years to hatch." Well…I don't like the fifty years thing. ^_^; Anyway, fifty years before hatching would be awfully dangerous for the long term survival of a species. If anybody wants to talk to me about it (which is always fun,) I'm trying to get that infernal fanfiction.net instant messenger to work.
-Lastly, some of you will be saying: "Forget this, when is 'Xelloss vs' coming out? It's one last measly chapter!" It'll probably be written after finals. I work hard on those, and it's stressful. This fic is relaxing to write because for once I'm not trying so hard to bend none of the rules.
Disclaimer: Slayers is not mine. I don't want them. They're even scarier than I am.

Filia stared at the form of the Evil Usurper of Peace in the Lives of Decent People, out cold on the floor of her room. Her instincts were telling her that she should help the poor, battered man in the green jammies, but her sensible side told her that the window by her bed looked like it offered an awfully nice ride for a Mazoku—er, ex-Mazoku. Was he really a Ryuzoku now? …Well, Ryuzoku or not, he could not see her in her nightgown. It was completely improper.
First she tried grabbing his wrist and dragging him across the floor, but this happened to wake Xelloss. He opened his eyes groggily and voiced his confusion at what Filia was doing to him.
"Aaaaagh! Don't look at me!" Filia shrieked, first trying to cover herself, and then hide behind a bedpost. Xelloss stared at her, an image of bewilderment. "Out!" Filia said, pointing to the door, "Get out!"
"Filia-san—"
"OUT!"
"One minor problem…"
"OU—what?"
"I can't stand."
"You can't stand?" Filia said, abruptly ending Incensed Dragon Maiden Mode.
"Don't you ever understand anything the first time, or are the skulls Ryuzoku too thick?"
"Xeeellllloooossssuuuuu…"
Xelloss remained quiet, thinking that the previous comment may have been a mistake. Filia stood tense, frozen in wait for his next move. "Perhaps I am wrong. I can use my teeth to get along to the door just fine. Don't you think so?" That did it. Filia grabbed Xelloss into her arms—"Fi-Filia-san?"—and threw him out the window.
