So. This is the first time in over a year that I've tried a chaptered fanfic. Let's see how this goes…


"Mmm?" A feline smirk spread across Yuuko's face. "Oh. Oh, this is precious."

"I'm begging you." Syaoran watched her, locking her in a determined stare.

"Oh, I'm not turning you down," she assured him. "I'm just wondering how many of you are going to come to me o save your princess."

"I- what? Princess?"

"Never mind." She surveyed the group, tapping her chin. "I don't like messing with time, so this could be expensive. Then again, there's 5 of you to share the price."

"Shut up and send us back," Kurogane snapped. Souma hushed him, eyes fixed on the witch, who proceeded to ignore both of them.

"You realize that you might die if you succeed," she pointed out.

Silence.

"I don't think…" All eyes turned on Fai, who offered a nervous smile. "Well, the future must have already happened, because if things had gone well, we wouldn't be here. So… we must be altering the past of a different set of ourselves… did that make sense?"

"Don't think too hard," Kurogane muttered, "your head might explode."

Ashura chuckled, smirking at the ninja.

"But you're all willing to accept the possibility?" Yuuko repeated, hands on her hips. There was a collective murmur of agreement. She smiled.

"Good. Then I'll take you in one at a time. Let's talk payment."


No. This doesnot make sense yet. Or if it does, you are awesome. But don't worry, it will fairly soon, and by fairly soon I mean PROBABLY early in the first chapter.

By the by, I'm doing this as a Lite NaNoWriMo- that is, this will be at least 25,00 words long by the end of February. I may post it as I go, then fix it in March. I may not even post things this month, and fix them before I put them up the first time. Or I may just post it as I go and make you deal with its suckage.

If you care one way or another, say so in your review.
