AN:
Angelic-Kitten bounces in, holding the evil pen. "Yay! It's time for a new chapter! And this means…..I GET TO TORTURE PEOPLE!!! YAY!!!"
A new, strange figure descends upon Angelic-Kitten. "YOU IDIOT!!!" She drop kicks Angelic-Kitten across the room. "Yo. In case you're wondering, if you hit her, she cries like a baby and goes and tattles. It's funny."
ChoiYugi walks on the makeshift stage. "What did you do now?"
Angelic-Kitten pulls ChoiYugi's sleeve, her eyes all watery. "So angry….Sanzo-houshi-sama…She hit me!" Her babyish voice is rather surprising.
ChoiYugi looks at her. "Do you know how wrong that sounds? Baby tone from you? AND WHY ARE YOU CALLING ME A MONK?!?!?! WAIT…WHY ARE YOU CALLING ME A SANZO?!"
The new figure snickers and walks off. "I won't say anything."
Angelic-Kitten grows evil flames, her eyes golden in the suddenly dark room. "COME BACK HERE AND SAY THAT TO MY FACE YOU SLUG!!!!"
The new person runs back and sticks out her tongue. "Baka!"
ChoiYugi clears her throat. "URUSAI BAKA ONNA AND BAKA ERO KAPPA!!!" SHe hits Angelic-Kitten with the large fan.
"Lily-chan! She's still hitting me!" Angelic-Kitten lets loose the waterworks.
ChoiYugi sighs. "Whatever. Just get on with the story."
-----------------------story time!
Chapter 3:
Sangria Selene
Ebony threw a large piece of rock at Bunny, rudely waking her up. "YO!"
Bunny sprang upright, arms crossed over her breasts, plus the obvious fact she was wearing….her undies and one of Gojyo's spare shirts. "IIE!! HENTAI!!!!!"
Ebony blinked, growing a sweat drop. "I'd hate to think of what you were dreaming…And do you always sleep in you underwear and a stolen article of clothing?"
Bunny sighed and sat back down, Japanese temple style. "Usually I sleep in the nude."
Ebony gagged. "TMI!!!"
Bunny yawned. "Actually I usually wear normal everyday pajamas. Now why are you waking me up this early in the morning?"
Ebony handed her a large clock. "I'd hate to see your version of late."
Bunny ran a hand through her really long white hair, gigantic white bunny ears popping out of her head in her extreme emotion. "OH MY GOSH! I'M SO FREAKING LAAATE!!!!!" She hopped up, balancing neatly on her toes as she frantically dug through the assembled baggage. "FUUUUUUUCK!!!!!!!!"
Blood poked her head in the tent. "You know.....Everyone can hear every single word you say. So....Guess what?"
Bunny perked her head. "What?"
Blood grinned. "You've got Gojyo VERY interested."
Ebony sighed. "I still don't see why you made me sleep in the same tent as the pervy wonder."
Blood rolled her eyes, her curly red hair popping out of her hair tie. "Because Bunny wouldn't understand what he was getting at. He agitates me, Pen wants to kill him, and Gale is infatuated with the idea of taking a blunt object to his genitalia and then removing said genitalia."
Gojyo threw a rock at the tent. "I HEARD THAT!"
Bunny snickered. "So...I take it that means you think I'm absolutely clueless when it comes to fucking up a guy in a dark closet?"
Blood smacked th eback of Bunny's head. "Don't curse so casually. And....are you even...?"
Bunny stood up and stretched her arms. "Happily, yes. Unhappily, my parents found us. In the dark closet. I was so close too..."
Ebony coughed. "We all know I'm not."
Blood rolled her eyes. "I'm not either. But that's not the point."
Bunny perked her head. "There was a point to all this?"
Pen poked her head in. "Bunny....when was the last time you had a bath?"
Bunny perked her head and race out the other end of the tent, slowly changing her physical appearance into that of a white and red eyed dog. "IIE! NO WAY IN HELL YOU'RE GETTING ME NEAR A POOL OF WATER!!!!!!!!!"
Bunny jumped on her head. "Warui Gale!" She used poor Gale as a stepping stool.
Gale looked up. "What?"
Pen whapped her with the paper fan. "AIRHEAD!"
Gale gave her evil look, her face scary in its singular emotion. She stared at the girls who were running around. "Sit."
The others stopped moving and looked nervously at Gale.
Bunny poofed back to normal. "Oops....I think we made Gale mad."
Gale grew a tick mark. "KAZE NO KIZU!" wound of the wind from Inuyasha A large vacuum of air flowed right past Bunny's head, slicing into a tree. "Next person who moves gets a haircut." Gale's usually bubbly voice was extremely serious.
Bunny's eyes were wide in her suddenly pale face. She struggled with the after blast, the wind making her hair move. "So scary..."
Pen scratched her head. "Whoa. Someone's mad."
Gale focused her evil glare on Bunny. "You stepped on my head."
Bunny pulled out a knife. "I'll give myself a haircut, save you the trouble."
Gale glared at her. "Cut."
Bunny grabbed her hair in a long ponytail. "Goodbye oh hair that I have been growing since God knows when. It was nice having you to hide the fact that I have a toothpick for a neck." She sniffed, and in one fluid motion cut off the vast majority of her own hair.
Gojyo looked up to see a large cloud of white falling to the ground. He looked up higher, just to see what happened. "Your...hair.....is gone...."
Bunny looked up, her page boy cut individual to her, with the entire front bang portion massively longer than the rest of her hair. The majority came only to the bottom of her ears, but her bangs went down to her collar bone. "No. It's just shorter than normal." She shook her head, small white hairs flowing to the ground. She bent down and scooped up all of her hair. "Waste not want not." She began laboriously braiding the snowy white locks into an intricate Celtic pattern.
------------On the road....again!
Blood leaned out of the very well drawn black Mitsubishi all-terrain SUV. "Pen...I didn't even know you knew how to draw cars."
Pen snorted. "Bunny's dad owns one. She keeps trying to prove a point."
Bunny looked in the rear view mirror, laughing at the two. "Well yeah. At least we have something good to listen to."
Gale sat up. "Oh no! It's Bunny's song!!"
Bunny hit the volume button, turning up to max. "Shippo no aru tenshi tachi
zen in shugo juni nin
meido fuku no tenshi tachi
kono mi ni kaete mamorimasu
hitori nayamuno dame
(dame, dame) The other anime freaks joined in
minna irukara okay
(okay) The other anime freaks joined in
kanashii koto mo arukeredo
atowa no to nare yama to nare
hitori kuyamu no iya
(Yada) The other anime freaks joined in
minna irukara go
(Ike) The other anime freaks joined in
ureshii koto mo arundashi
ichiji ga banji
kippo tsugeru tenshi tachi
roku san san de juni nin
meido kai no tenshi tachi
sonoki no natte tsukushimashu" All of a sudden, Bunny hit the brakes, slamming her passengers into the seats in front of them.
Pen hit her with the fan. "DON'T DO THAT!"
Bunny pointed. "Ano....Is that building supposed to be there?"
Hakkai climbed out of the Jeep, which had been driving parallel to the Mitsubishi. "That isn't on the map."
Blood poked Bunny. "How does it feel?"
Bunny sighed, climbing out of the car. She closed her eyes, her hand out to the strange building. "Please...."
Blood hung out of the window. "Well? Is this a good place or a bad place?"
Gojyo climbed out of the Jeep. "She can figure that out?"
Gale stared in front of her for a few minutes. "The wind here is...odd."
Ebony climbed on top of the Mitsubishi. "I don't think this qualifies as a good place. Huh, Bunny?"
Bunny's eyes opened slowly, completely void of any detail, wiped blank. "Yes....I see." She held her hand out, entreating something not there. "I'll take it then." A large, black, dust covered staff with a large red orb in its top clunked into Bunny's hand. Bunny smiled softly, letting the staff fall out of her hands as she put her hands to the sides of her head and let her jaw hang loose. "Yada..." She fell forward, her head falling down last, as she fell in the traditional I-Have-No-Idea-But-I'm-Going-To-Fall-Like-A-Girl-Anyways manner.
Gojyo moved faster than everyone else, and neatly snagged her out of her fall. So naturally, when she grabbed his waist and buried her face in his chest, he let go. But when he fell on his butt, and he realized she wasn't letting go, he put his hands on her head, cradling her like he would anynormal girlfriend.
And then Blood ruined the moment by smacking him with Pen's fan, and snatching up Bunny's still body. "Hey! Don't take advantage of her!"
Gale poked the staff with a windshield wiper from the back of the Mitsubishi. "What's this thingy?"
Ebony reached down and grabbed it. "It's a staff you idiot."
Pen sat down with Blood, who was cradling Bunny like a four year old. "What's wrong with her?"
Blood smiled softly. "I'll tell you later. I'm sorry for this little one." She bent Bunny's head, grabbed her in a vampire's embrace, and bit.
Bunny gasped, dug her nails deep into Blood's shoulder, and then let everything go limp. "Shippo....Ouroboreas...Minna-san...."
Blood didn't move, her eyes showing a reflection of what she saw.
---------Bunny's mind (and memories)
Blood walked through a myraid of shadows, idly brushing aside a shadow that flowed around her loose curly red hair. "Boudicca Tiamat D'Iceni. What kind of soul is this?" She looked down at the scorched earth. "What are you remembering?" She looked around her, seeing that the shadows were just smoke....from a newly destroyed city. Standing on the highest points of the city (church steeple, water tower, weather mane on the city hall), where three people. In a rush, Blood was standing on air next to the one on the church steeple.
"Is it done Ouroboreas? Or is there more we should know?" A tall attractive short brown haired man with golden eyes, wearing a monk's robes, looked through Blood to the figure she stood next to.
The figure turned into the light, her long white hair elaboratly held up with a cunning design. Her red eyes glinted ruthlessly as her black Victorian dress swirled in the ember filled smoky air. "I hope this is all. Really. You could have just told me and I would have done it for you onee-chan."
A tall attractive long black haired man with ice blue eyes, wearing Homura's outfit, smirked. He hopped off the water tower to the ground. "You really think I'd pass this up Tiamat, Shippo? I'd do anything to vex those creations of mine."
Bunny laughed. "I think onee-chan has finally cracked eh Shippo?"
The brown haired man jumped to the ground as well. "No. I think he needs to get out more is all."
The white haired man sighed. "You shouldn't encourage him Tiamat. You know what's up now."
The memory of Bunny, apparantly named Tiamat, hopped down gracefully. "We'll be in so much trouble with Mother. Think it was worth it?"
Ouroboreas, the white haired man, leaned down and rubbed her head. "You worry too much. We did it together, so Mother will just have to do something minor."
Shippo, the only one left, grinned as he slung a massive horsecutter over his shoulder. "Ike. Hey, Tiamat, where's the Rune?"
Tiamat went slack jawed. "Oh no! It's in here.....somewhere. I'll just find it later. It's not like anyone's going to mess with a place like this, where these souls can't even make it to Hell their're so bad."
Ouroboreas sheathed an elegant sword. "Mother will get mad at you over that."
Tiamat sighed. "I'll live. But....something's not right."
Shippo dug in his ear. "There's nothing left alive. So don't worry about it."
Tiamat waved her hand. "I never said the thing was alive. I think....it's dead....and it's also searching through my memories."
Ouroboreas sighed. "Show yourself. Whatever you are, the memories of a dragon are timeless. And Tiamat is the not so nice of us."
Blood landed gently, borne by the winds of her desires for answers. "I seek the one whom these memories belong to. I won't leave here until I do."
Tiamat nodded regally. "You are connected to me...how?"
Blood bowed. "I am currently drinking the blood from the one who's memories these are."
Tiamat nodded. "I shall just transmit these memories. I'l switch to you for my own sake. We shall continue this conversation in your head."
Blood nodded. "One question my companions will want to know...What's wrong with the person holding these memories?"
Tiamat smiled and waved her hand. "She...is bound by chains of extreme power. I would help...but I fear I am the one chained away."
Blood held a hand to Tiamat's head. "Is the place we are in front of....the place in this memory?"
Tiamat nodded. "Yes. The Slaughterhouse of Ki-Lin. I left my Rune here, I probably just found it again."
Blood nodded. "Thank you."
--------------Back down the Rabbit Hole
Blood pulled her vampire fangs out of Bunny's neck. "You really have a sadistic passion you know that Bunny?"
Bunny rolled over. "For the record Blood, I heard about half that conversation. After I woke up."
Blood rubbed Bunny's head. "Realtions of yours?"
Bunny stood up and wiped the blood off the side of her neck. "Yeah. My older brothers."
Blood licked her lips. "So...Mother would be?"
Bunny smiled cheekily. "None of your business. Don't bite me ever again."
Blood sighed. "I was just trying to help."
Bunny grabbed her throat and slammed her into the side of the Mitsubishi. "I don't need your help, your pity, or your sympathy."
Goku hopped around from the other side. "Bunny-chan! Lunch is....LEAVE HER ALONE BUNNY!"
Bunny dropped Blood, walking straight out to the other side of the Mitsubishi. "I'll be seeing you then. RUNE!" The large black staff flew to her hand.
Blood jumped right over the Mitsubishi. "You can't! What if those...spirits are still there?! What are you going to do?!"
Bunny saluted with her staff. "Well. Since I sent them to Limbo, I suppose I'll just blow them to pieces. Later!" SHe moved so fast no one else could catch her, sans Goku.
Goku moved after her a millisecond after. He tackled her...two kilometers away. He started punching her. "GIVE HER BACK! GIVE BACK BUNNY!"
Bunny shoved him with her palms. "Get away from me!"
Goku's clothes lit on fire as he was knocked a few meters away from Bunny. He grimaced. "Nyoibo!"
Bunny moved faster then he did, breaking his spine on her knee. When he lay gasping on the ground, coughing up blood, Bunny blinked and turned away, a long black dress similar to the one in her memory appearing as a phantom around her, an illusion of long white hair trailing behind her. "Shippo...If I've done everything like you wanted...Protect them for me."
The earth under Goku cracked, Shippo climbing gravelly out. "You're serious? You think you can handle that alone?"
Bunny smiled. "No. I'm going to die, but that's not the point. Keep them safe."
Shippo scooped up Goku. "This little one? You found....Seiten Taisen Son Goku? You....Bah! All right. I owe you one anyway. For finding my....son."
Bunny walked away, her phantom self turning to follow her a few seconds after her.
Shippo walked back to the others. "I think she...is going to lose this one."
Pen snorted. "Good. Her ego's too inflated anyway. A good lose or two should deflate that."
Shippo looked down at Goku. "I wonder if she's ever made one of these. It would be good for her."
Blood looked at him, sitting on the ground. "You know, I would put him down if I were you. I don't think he's gay."
Shippo smiled, his face gorgeous. "I'd hope not. I didn't want a gay son. I wanted someone to keep Little Sister out of trouble."
Sanzo perked a brow. "Son?"
Shippo sighed. "Since you limited his powers, he couldn't really stop her now could he? Never mind that. Seiten Taisen Son Goku! Wake up!"
Goku blinked. "Where'd Bunny go?...Who the hell are you?!"
Shippo gently put him down. "Bunny went to remove her own chains, and I'm Shippo, Dragon of the Earth. It's also not nice to use Tiamat's realm in vain."
Ebony sighed. "Isn't Tiamat Bunny's middle name?"
Gale looked up. "Why is it that...well....all the cute guys are so powerful?"
Shippo snorted. "You think I'm cute? You should see my big brother Ouroboreas."
The clouds split, a white dot moving rapidly down. It materialized to be Ouroboreas. "Little Brother....Why is Tiamat talking to War Prince Homura? Without a chaperone? Oh. You found the monkey. Good. Send it to find Tiamat."
Blood stood up. "Who's this War Prince Homura dude?"
"I beleive this thing is yours." War Prince Homura dumped Bunny's comatose body on the ground.
Goku clenched his fists. "You bastard! You hit Bunny!"
Homura sighed. "I did no such thing. Your...Bunny?...was already like this."
Ouroboreas cleared his throat. "You have disrespected my little sister. Shippo. Break his face in."
Homura sighed. "How boorish. Don't you two have anything better to do, like...enforcing creation?"
Bunny sat up, blinking furiously. "Where'd the bastard go?!" She stood up, her red eyes glowing.
Homura tapped her shoulder. "I believe I'm right here. That is, if you can see through all the blood in your eyes right about now."
Bunny cracked her fingers, growing claws. "You are so dead."
Ouroboreas grabbed her shirt collar with the ease of much practice. "What's the cardinal rule between Heaven and Hell?"
Bunny moved to strangle Homura. "I'm not allowed to kill a god without permission. I'm not going to kill him. I'm just going to SUCK HIS SOUL OUT!"
Ouroboreas waved a hand over her, changing her into a small black dragon. "Think on this for an hour. Shippo, I want you to do whatever these good people travelling with Tiamat tell you to."
Shippo saluted. "Will do bro!"
Gale tugged Ouroboreas's sleeve. "Um..."
Ouroboreas smiled down at her. "Of course little Wind Sprite." He pulled her chin gently and kissed her forehead. "Remember to come visit us some time."
Gale blinked. "Thank you....but I wanted wings."
Ouroboreas smiled again. "I know. You have them too. Just concentrate." He frowned for a moment, then magnificent white bird wings came out of his back. "Just wish them there." He waved to Bunny. "Behave Little Sister."
Bunny bowed. "Sayonara Onee-chan!"
Shippo rolled his eyes. "Later."
Homura waved as he put his arm around Blood's neck. "I'll keep whatever this is."
Ouroboreas waved without looking back. "Then keep in War Prince Homura. If it interests you so much."
Homura smiled evilly. "Then say goodbye."
Blood's eyes grew wide. "Are you talking to me you-" Homura and Blood disappeared in the way most gods are wont to do.
Bunny turned around. "What Blood? Blood? Blood where did you go? This isn't funny Blood! BLOOD!!!!!!!!!!"
Shippo rolled his eyes. "Lemme guess: go find her, right?"
Pen nodded. "Don't get caught."
Shippo rolled his eyes. "I never get caught, just like Tiamat never loses at anything, and Ouroboreas never ever doesn't know."
Bunny hit the ground on her knees. "Blood...."
Gojyo scooped her up, putting her in the backseat of the Jeep. "Let's go. We can't bring her back just by staying put."
Sanzo nodded. "Goku, ride with the girls."
Hakkai smiled softly. "It'll be all right Bunny."
Bunny grabbed Gojyo's arm. "You're not leave me too, are you?"
Gojyo hugged her head. "Nah. You're too cuddly. Like a stuffed rabbit."
Bunny smiled softly as she fell asleep.
----------------------1 Week later
"You can't keep me here forever. My friends are looking for me." Blood was all gussied up in an elaborate blood red kimono, her curly red hair tied up with decorative chopsticks I don't know what they're called. She walked behind Homura in one of the many halls in their inner stronghold.
Homura smiled. "I doubt I could. For a vampire, you are most enticing."
Blood sighed. "If that was supposed to be a compliment, it was lost on me."
Homura turned around and pinned her against the wall. "It doesn't really matter what you think. You didn't hear the all mighty ruler of Heaven did you? I. Own. You."
Blood smiled back at him. "And you obviously didn't hear me the first time. I. Don't. Give. A. Fuck."
Homura had one of his usual heart attacks, crumpling on Blood. "Not now..."
Blood gently bore him to the floor. "Relax. You won't die just yet. You're too stubborn."
Homura slapped her. "You fucking whore! What the hell do you know?!"
Blood popped her jaw. "I was trying to be sympathetic. See, that's hard for me. Since I'm dead already, I don't really understand why you hate it so much. That's why you wanted me wasn't it? Because I'm already dead?!"
Homura looked up at her. "Forgive me. I can't control myself when I'm like that."
Blood sighed. "I'd rather be a fucking whore than be as cold as you."
Homura gave her one of his I'm-an-upper-god-now-obey-me looks. "I resent that comment."
Blood snickered. "You resemble that comment."
Homura picked himself off the ground. "You think I'm a cold bastard don't you?"
Blood popped open a fan at her belt, letting the blood red silk hide everything under her dazzling green eyes. "I couldn't say."
Homura used one hand to brush away the fan, the other to hold Blood's head as he kissed her.
Five minutes later, Blood was......forgetting all righteous rage and just concentrating on her current goal: getting fucked up in a dark corner of a very large expensive castle.
Homura blinked after about six minutes of heaven. "Wait. Don't take off your clothes."
Blood panted, her hair very much undone. "You want to do it with clothes on? Let me just hike this up then."
Homura held up his hand. "No. I must respect your wishes to hate me eternally. You go to your quarters, I'll go to mine. We stay there until we can get past this whole physical thing."
Blood tied up her hair. "Fuck that just makes me hornier!"
Homura perked a brow. "Hornier how?"
Blood shook her head. "When I get horny I start saying bad things."
Homura looked vaguely interested. "Like how?"
Blood kissed him. "Really perverted things."
Homura held up his hand for the second time. "Go. Just go."
--------Blood's Rooms three minutes later
Blood made it through her door before she started silently cursing herself. Three seconds later, someone knocked on her door. She composed herself, and opened the door. "Yes?"
Homura let himself in. "Miss me?"
Blood jumped up in his arms, and the fun began.
-------------Three hours later.
Homura laughed lightly. "You know, maybe next time we can make it to the bed."
Blood shook her head as she pulled up the sheet. "That would be nice."
Homura kissed her neck. "Tired?"
Blood looked at him. "I'm dead. I don't get tired."
Homura smiled lecherously. "Can we do that pretzel thing again?"
Blood latched on. "Hell yes!"
-----------------Morning
"So...Homura...How'd it go?" Zenon grinned knowingly.
"Well....first we had a philosophical discussion about life." Homura reclined easily in his throne.
Shien sighed. "If that's all you did, the poor girl must be bored out of her mind."
"And then we decided to rest and think on our discussion." Homura closed his eyes.
Zenon sighed. "Any lecherous bits in this?"
Homura grinned. "Then we went to her rooms."
Shien sighed. "And played Mahjonng no doubt."
"No. And then we burned a hole in the floor." Homura grinned lecherously.
Blood stalked up behind Shien. "For the record, I don't even know what Mahjonng is."
Homura grinned. "And there are benifits to being dead."
Blood grinned back. "Yeah, like contortionism.....and knowing just how to get a rise out of someone."
---------------------FIN CHAPTER!
Angelic-Kitten grins. "So how do you like my version of a Christmas special? I told you I'd have people geting fd up in this chapter. I warned you! And I put it at the end so no one in their sane mind would read it. So.....Oh yeah! This is what Bunny's Song really means:
Tenshi no Shippo (Angels with Tails) AKA Bunny's Song
English Translation
--Angels with tails
Twelve of them all gathered
Angels dressed as maids
Protect you with our lives
Don't be depressed
(no, no) The other anime freaks joined in
Everyone's here for you, okay
(Okay) The other anime freaks joined in
There may be sadness at times...
But everything will turn out fine
To grieve over somehting is a no-no
(no) The other anime freaks joined in
Everyone's here for you so cheer up
(yeah)
There will be times of happiness
It's going to be all right
Angels that bring you good news
Six plus three plus three is twelve
Angels from the spirit world
We will serve you the best we can--
Okay? Got it? Why I chose this song: The song refers to them as angels with no tails.Meaning they're all animals who died. Bunny is a rabbit (duh), Gale sees herself as a bird (with a name like that? duh), Pen sees herself as a cat, Ebony sees herself as a snake (not that you know that yet ahem), and Blood views herself as a fox (not that you'd know that yet either ahem ahem). The song says there are twelve of them. There are. There's Kali (concept story Drift Away) the dog, Hikara-maki (Yume) the angel fish, Yume (Yume) the hamster, Hotoko (Pyrotechnics) the turtle, Viviane (Pyrotechnics) the leopard, Astraea (Innocent Dumpling) the eagle, and Hikaru (concept story Everything) the bear. Each one of them protects their own brand of elemental power and sub elements.
Got that? Now it's about to get even more complicated.
Water: Pen serves under Hikara-maki, who serves under Bunny's onii-chan Ouroboreas, who serves under Chaos. Earth: Kali serves Hikaru, who serves under Hotoko, who serves under Ebony, who serves under Bunny's onii-chan Shippo, who serves under Order. Sky: Gale serves under Astraea, who serves under Yume, who serves under Viviane, who serves under the Long Wang. Flames: Blood serves Bunny, who serves under Death.
There is a method to this. Each element is not to combine, and this is how the Gensomaden Saiyuki hierachy works.
Sanzo stands for water. Thus, the water people feel more connected to him than anyone else. Goku stands for earth. The earth people tend to overly spoil him. Hakkai stands for sky, and the sky people tend to generally look to him to guide their paths. Gojyo stands for flames. In this case, fire tends to NOT like other fire. They repel each other like water and oil.
Got that? Here comes more fun.
Water and fire tend to want to kill each other, but water and sky get along very well. Fire tends to view earth as inferior, and thus don't get along. Sky is neutral, but it lends fire its strengths frequently. Earth tends to negate water, and sky repels it. Fire tends to be a loner, but grant their powers to those who deserve it more than the others, it tends to want to eradicate its enemies beyond all hopes of recognition. Water is calm in a fight, but seeing their element makes them sad. Sky is typically an airhead, they all feel each other no matter where they are. Earth is childish, but looks to fire to help them out of tricky situations.
Ok? Still feel your head is connected? Damn. I'm not done yet. I'm now going to tell you pretty much how all my fics tie in. Because you probably are giving me the 'dot dot dot.' Don't want a spoiler? It's only a partial spoiler. They all die, that's a tie in.
Innocent Dumpling: If I can ever get around to it....Main OC tends to space out. This is good. She keeps on thinking other people are in her body, and sometimes she can't control her emotions. At some point in time, she snaps into a massive youkai rage. Sanzo shoots her. The story does not end there.
Pyrotechnics: Chick is a fire dragon abducted by people from her dimension. Sanzo wants her back. That's fine. So they call up other version of her...and in the end, she destroys the place where she's being kept by changing into her true form and calling on a hidden power to aid her. Place blows up, backlash disintegrates her molecules. Not ending yet.
Sine Qua Non: Each girl ends up finding that their dreams aren't really worth it. Bunny sacrifices herself to try to save Blood, who doesn't want to be saved. Bunny bleeds to death in a really cute touchy scene with Gojyo. Blood gets pissed and loses her mind. Pen stops her from killing Sanzo by chopping off her head and disintegrating it. She loses it, and attacks Homura, who pulls out her heart. Ebony gets pissed, and then seals him up in the earth. Zenon shoots her. Gale, being the stupid airhead stands there in shock. After a little while, she looses it and changes into her....archangel (I'm not making this shit up! oh...I am) form and teleports everyone important out of the building, then destroys it with a massive Chi attack. She dies in the backlash. The girls' true soul forms say their own unique farewells, then teleport.....to another dimension somewhere.
Yume: Killer eventually does her nickname and goes on a spree, possesed by her former lives. She repeats her mistakes, and ends up getting killed by everyone she loves. Ironically, she takes out Kanzeon in the process, what she set out to do. Her souls dissapate somewhere.
Everything: Jumps in front of a bullet to save Sanzo's life. Kisses him...and then dies.
Drift Away: Girl meets a weird chick named Tiamat hint hint, that leads her to believe the only way to make everything clear is to kill herself. She does it. Dead body gets teleported somewhere else.
...Make sense? No? Let me spell it out then. ALL MY CURRENT SAIYUKI FICS ARE A PREQUEL TO SOMETHING BIGGER!!!! What you may ask? It's a fic I will let no one read until I've finished all these. It's done already (I'm so mean). It's called....wait hold up let me find it.....Life Without Light. Stupid title neh?
Ok. Got that? It gets worse.
It'll take me two more years to finish everything at the rate I'm going. Because:
1. I type sloooooooowly.
2. I'm a sophmore now, and I have homework....for once.

The cast of the various assorted fics drag her off.
ChoiYugi sighs. "Lord this kid needs a life."
AsianOrange shakes her head. "I can't believe she's withholding fics from me-I mean us!"
ChoiYugi brandishes her Sanzo fan. "I am so going to enroll her in Keyboarding...."
Lily-chan grins. "I hear she's learned a new patchwork phrase. Goes like this: Kawa no nagare no youni daiski. It means: My love for you is like a flowing river. Now someone convince her to say: Suki. Dakara daiski to that Avery guy."
AngelicKitten stabs her with a pen. "URUSAI!!! I hate him! And I don't want to be mean and tell him to fuck off, because he's the first guy who's too stupid to realise I'm pure evil!!!!!"
AsianOrange grins. "I think it's cute."
AngelicKitten's face twitches. "IT'S NOT CUTE!!! IT'S AGGRAVATING!!!!!"
ChoiYugi shakes her head, her voice calm. "A-K, chill."
AngelicKitten sighs. "Yes ma'm."
AsianOrange gapes. "HOW'D YOU DO THAT! Teach me how to do that!!!!"
ChoiYugi pulls the curtain string. "That's it for Sine Qua Non 'til January. Now it's time to write the tenth chapter of Yume, which she's only on the third page of. Later losers."
