This is ESSENTIAL to understand what I'm doing, so bear with it, it won't be too bad, I promise. :  )

See, I was fed up with people mushing over Lara's dad, and Alex, and I thought I'd give it a, hmm, different  concept. So one day during Chinese I started writing this. That was when I realized it'd be impossible to put this in chapters. Nonetheless I have done so, because a) I can't keep updating it as one thing and b) I am a review pig. :  ) Just remember to read it as a whole thing, 'kay? :  )

Oh don't worry she still loves Alex, for all you mushers out there. But nonmushers you will kill me as the bit where he comes in is VERY mushy, and mushers you will kill me as well as they- well, read and find out. :  ) Heh.

This fic is full of half-recent events too – what if terrorism isn't Islamic? After all my own Social Studies teacher is and I can't imagine her charging in with an AK-47 ready to gun down the school (we could shut her in the first floor toilet, that works better than a gas grenade).

To top this off (most likely I'll need to add to it sooner or later though) this fic is about being DIFFERENT, doing things DIFFERENTLY. I hope this will come as a breath of fresh air to most of you; I'm perfectly content to get flames. Just one point I would like to make ridiculously clear: I DO NOT MEAN TO INSULT ANYONE OR ANYTHING. NO INSULTING, HEAR ME? I DO NOT MEAN TO INSULT ANYTHING!!! NOT. INSULTING. ANYTHING. You heard me.


Thank you! (And mind, I don't mind flames but I LOVE REVIEWS!)

P.S. This was PG-13 because I thought it was a bit strong, and R was like, an overstatement, but don't drag your folks over just to read it, mind. :  ) Being 13 is completely unnecessary.
