Wow, you guys are awesome, aren't you. Holy shit let's get this road on the show then, I guess I'm uploading the rest as I go. Lucky you, I had some chapters done already.

Still don't own the series. I wouldn't hold your breath.

I Didn't Ask for a Reunion

"Yeah, well, I figured." I waved a hand at my feet. "Usually feet don't just move on their own for no reason. "

"That they do not." The cat replied in a dull tone.

"Mind telling me what Shark Boy and Lava Girl are doing here?" I questioned, crossing my arms unhappily. Not that the cat cared much about how I felt, but I thought he should know I was a little peeved. Puck gave an indignant grunt from the dig at his manhood, but stayed otherwise quiet. Ash...well...all I have to say is this: brick wall.

"I found them in a rather sticky situation with some nixies," Grim moved to lick a paw and scrub behind his ear as he spoke. "As usual I had to get the two bumbling fools out of trouble that Goodfellow surely got them into in the first place."

"Hey! Why does everyone always just assume it's my fault?" Puck crossed his arms stubbornly.

I tossed him a look over my shoulder. "Was it your fault?"

"Well..." He grinned devilishly.

"There's your answer." I returned my attention to the cat. "So what'll it be, Grim? Need me to off someone for you?"

The cat sniffed in disdain, "Please," He began snootily, "if that was what I needed there are numerous fey more suitable for the job in my debt."

Ouch "Well, then what is it? I was busy." I let my hands come to rest on my hips.

"You should have thought of that before you wandering into a situation that you couldn't possibly have handled on your own, Mix-breed." He eyed me smugly and I silently thought of all the places he could shove his mockery. "Anyway, the reason I brought you here now is simple."

I bristled immediately at that word. Simple. Nothing this cat - scratch that, any Faery - asked for was simple. Not even in the farthest stretches of the imagination.

"The suspense is killing me." Goodfellow's obnoxious drawl commented, causing me to shoot a glare at the two sidhe behind me.

"Are you two still here? This is my problem and I'm fully capable of handling it without you."

"Jeez, don't sound so thrilled, Sunshine." Puck teased, and I knew I had made a mistake. Letting the trickster know he was unwanted didn't drive him away, it made him more determined to bug the hell out of you all the way to your destination. He reveled in being completely annoying, that much I remembered - only now it wasn't welcome any longer.

"Our tagging along could only be advantageous." Ash reasoned, the first thing he'd said since arriving. "Why so reluctant to accept our help?"

"Because I've been doing fine without it for the past few years." I spat venomously. Puck's guilty cringe and Ash's softened gaze were enough of a victory to me.

"Come or do not, it makes no difference to me. But regardless of what you choose to do, I for one would like to get this over with within the next mortal year." A sarcastic drawl came from the cat, impatience clear in his tone. I gave a apologetic nod and allowed him to go on, knowing that no matter how many guilt inducing digs I got in the two Faery boys would still be coming. "Finally. I do not see what anyone gains from such time consuming banter. To answer your earlier question...have any one of you heard of the Cursed Three?"

Ash's grey eyes widened a fraction and Puck nearly choked. I stared blankly.

"The Cursed Three? Anyone care to elaborate?"

"The Cursed Three are said to be some of the most powerful Tokens existing today." Ash explained with a grim look in his gaze. "They're as close to evil as inanimate objects get. They draw off of hate and fear and grief, seeing as all of its wearers either were killed or did the killing while wearing them. A necklace, ring, and bracelet make up the set."

"Yeah, but they're scattered throughout the Nevernever, and I'm sure they've got some big nasties protecting them. What do you want with things like those, cat?" Puck added on, almost glaring at the cat though a grin was still firmly in place.

"It is no business of yours. All you need to know is that I happen to know someone who could make good use of these particular Tokens. You must only collect them; what happens after is not worth worrying about, yet."

I sighed. This sounded like it would take a while. "Do you have any idea where they are located?"

"That I do not, or I would have told you already. But there is someone who may." Grim went to washing a paw, looking as if he hadn't a care in the world. "A Seelie sidhe by the name of Amendiil is throwing a ball for all summer fey who wish to attend. One of the partygoers that will most certainly be there goes by the name of Thero. He makes it his job to know where many coveted artifacts are, both in the mortal world and in Faery. There would be no better place to start your search."

"A party? Oh joy," I groaned. "Fine. I'll start there. Is there anything else I should know?"

"I have given you everything you need." The cat made to stand, tail bobbing back and forth. "Do be quick about it. I do not wish to be waiting for a decade." And with those as his parting words, the creature vanished like smoke.

"And the award for most dramatic exit goes to...!" Puck adopted an exaggerated announcer voice. I flinched and swung at him but he dodged too quickly.

"Shut up, you doofus." I hissed before starting to walk away. "If you two asses are coming all I have to say is this: keep up and stay out of my way."

I heard Puck snicker behind me and Ash give an amused hmph before two sets of footsteps trailed behind me. I felt my shoulders droop a bit as the last flame of hope flickered and died out; they were really coming. This would be a long trip.
