Author's Note:
K: Ah. Another English assignment gone wrong. These are so much fun!
S: Riiight. ^_^; Anyway, this time we had to write a story using as many idioms as possible.
K: There were no restictions on it or anything, so we just had fun. Too much fun. Waaaay too much fun.
S: We decided to use FY characters but since this is English class and our teacher thinks us strange enough, we had to change the names. "English" name is followed by the seishi name in parentheses in the little intro thingy.
K: When I originally converted this into HTML format, it was over 40 pages long. I decided that was too long, so this story has been divided into two parts, not exactly even.
S: There really isn't supposed to be a pause that large, but that's how it worked out.
K: Have fun. Let us know what you think. Also keep an eye out for the other version of this story.
S: A.k.a. the one we would have written if it didn't have to be handed in for a grade.
K: ^_^
Disclaimer:
K: I'm only doing this once. FY and all related characters do not belong to us.
S: Neither does Xelloss, the special guest from The Slayers Next/Try.
K: *cries*
