Okay, yes, we finished this weeks ago. But I forgot to put up this little bit as an omake (extra), so I decided to post it now. :)
I'll also take this time to thank the people who reviewed after we finished: our loyal Sparda and Shichan as always, IchigoPocky, Heero/Duo4Ever (interesting chat, by the way), and Darla_la mosca Tete. Glad you all enjoyed our fic and the kids!! :) ((Hope y'all enjoyed X2, as well... :) )) We don't have anything in the works for a sequel now, but we'll keep it in mind. I am in the middle of another fic, though, "A Change in Routine"--feel free to check it out and review!

Omake--A Bedtime Story
~~~~~~~~
Duo: Once upon a time, there was a princess, who wanted peace for everyone, no matter what the cost.
Juuni: But isn't peace good?
Ven: Not if there are bad people in charge ruling people's lives, right, Dad?
Duo: Right. Anyway, a warrior who wanted freedom for the people saw her as a threat, and he decided to kill her.
Juuni: But that's mean!
Ven: Shh, let him tell the story, baka!
Juuni: Ven! Dad, Ven called me baka!
Duo: Ven, apologize to your sister.
Ven: I'm sorry, Juuni. Can Dad continue with the story now?
Duo: So one day the warrior was about to kill the princess, but a handsome young knight came to her rescue and shot him. The warrior survived, and the princess fell in love with…
Juuni: The knight?
Duo: No, the warrior.
Ven: I'm confused.
Duo: So was the warrior. Anyway, the princess followed him around for years, risking being killed time and time again, before she finally realized he didn't love her.
Ven: Because she was a peace freak?
Duo: No, because he was in love with the knight.
Juuni: The one who shot him?
Ven: Now I'm really confused.
Duo: But it turned out the knight loved him, too, and they got together and lived happily ever after. The end.
Ven: That was a stupid story.
Juuni: I thought it was cute… Weird, but cute…
Ven: You would.
Juuni: What's that supposed to mean??
