Heya guys! Let's just get straight to the point on this one. We skip the dedications, ok?

Disclaimer: Me: I wanna own Tsubasa!

CLAMP: It's ours! Back off!

Me: Fine...*grumbles*

Ow! I felt a sharp pain in my arm. Someone was tugging at it rather fiercely, and it burned. I turned my head to one side uncomfortably. The tugging stopped abruptly, and I opened my eyes. Chunyan was bandaging my good arm. Wha…? Why my good arm? And then I remembered. My good arm wasn't so good anymore. Chunyan didn't let me bother her, and continued to wrap the bandage around my arm, and I yelped. She apologized hastily, and continued her work like a brainwashed robot.

"Chu'nyan?" I asked, reaching my hand out to her. I pulled it back, remembering what had happened the last time I tried to touch someone. Ouch. I didn't want that to happen again.

Chu'nyan looked up, and seemed startled, as if she had noticed my waking for the first time. "Oh! Sorry…I'm a little caught up in thoughts…" She sighed, and finished bandaging my arm. "I'm worried, you know. About your friends. I have a bad feeling about what they're doing." She asked me to lift my arm up so she could examine her handiwork.

"Why do you say that? What are they doing?" I asked. My heart thudded a little harder in my chest. "Where are they?" My voice cracked, and I stood up, looking around. "They're not here!"

"Uh…no, they're not. They left a while ago." Chu'nyan replied. "They went to the Ryanban's castle, and are looking for Sakura's feather or something." She folded her arms over her chest and pouted. "I wanted to go, too, but they wouldn't let me!"

"They have a point, you know." I put a hand on her shoulder gently. "It's not safe for you to go with them. It's dangerous." I shook my head. "I mean, I understand that now that I've been traveling with them for a while. It seems as though trouble always finds us."

Chu'nyan swiped my hand away, which left me rather surprised. She hadn't had a reaction like that before. "You don't understand! I need to avenge my omoni's death!" I gasped, putting two and two together. I guess it never occurred to me why she stood up against the Ryanban's son all the time…maybe his dad killed her mom! I watched as tears streamed down her face in a steady flow. "I told them that, but they still didn't let me go with them. It's not fair!"

I watched her in silence for a while, listening to her gentle sobs. I wanted to comfort her, but I had no idea how. I wasn't the type of person to really interact with others. Instead, I changed the subject. "Thanks for bandaging my arm. You did a great job, and I can't even feel the pain anymore!"

Her eyes widened, as if a monster were standing behind me. "Oh my gosh! I totally forgot about your arm! I was so caught up in my own problems that I forgot about yours!" She held my arm, as if trying to make sure it was ok, although I knew she was only trying to make up for her selfishness. "What happened, anyways? I didn't notice a thing!"

Dark, foreboding memories flooded to my mind. I debated whether to tell her or not. Oh gosh, if she knew…she'd think I was trouble. Maybe she wouldn't want to be friends with me anymore. "Oh…I got into a fight…sort of." It wasn't a lie, but I still felt bad. I saw the look of disappointment on her face, but she didn't press for a complete answer. I changed the topic again, to keep her from her suspicions. "Well," I said, standing up and dusting my jeans off, "I think I'm going to go look for them."

As I headed for the door, Chu'nyan stood up and ran after me, grabbing my arm. "Oh no! Please don't leave, too! Sakura and I need someone to talk to!" She begged me.

I smiled, and put my hands on her shoulders. "It's going to be fine, Chu'nyan. After all, you do want to see the Ryanban gone, right?" I asked. She gave a gentle nod. "Good. I have the feeling that just Syaoran, Kurogane, and Fai alone won't be enough to stop him. After all, he was the one who killed your mo—" I stopped myself before I could say it. "He was the one who caused all that damage to Ryonfi." I rephrased it.

Chu'nyan let go of my arm, and stared at her toes. "Yeah, I guess it's best if you go to keep an eye on them. But how are you going to get in? They used this magic device thing that helped them, and you don't have it."

"Oh, I think I'll find a way. Besides, if the magic device shut down the magic around the castle, then the magic should still be down. Maybe if I hurry, I can sneak in. Don't worry, Chu'nyan. I'm good at this kind of stuff." I winked at her before stepping outside. The night air was crisp and cool, and the air was fresh. I let my senses feast on the beautiful evening before waving goodbye to Chu'nyan and Sakura. Chu'nyan waved back half-heartedly.

I headed down the streets. The town of Ryonfi seemed a much more magical place at night than it did during the day. When I looked up, the stars seemed to twinkle brighter, and the crescent moon almost seemed to smile at me. The people seemed more magical, too. The starlight played across the bridges of their noses like freckles, and the moonlight danced in their eyes. The poor folk of Ryonfi could have been mistaken for kings and queens in that kind of lighting. I wondered what I looked like in the light.

I walked through the streets. Even though I was worlds away, the people here reminded me of the people at home. The way they turned their eyes bounced away from mine made me feel like I didn't belong. I held my breath as I passed the townsfolk, as if I would disappear by doing so. It didn't help at all, and the villagers' glares still drilled holes into my chest. When I decided I was far enough to evade the menacing stares, I let out my breath. It was so cold outside that I could see it.

Finally, I got there. I walked along a very long, stretched-out pathway. If you walked too far to either side, you would fall off and die. Fun. Note to self: don't go near the edge. I looked up at the building. It looked more like a prison cell than a castle, but it was huge. I strode up to the thick stone wall, and pressed my hands against it, feeling for any traces of magic. I squeaked in surprise—the stone was so cold. There were bits of magic zipping through the castle, but it wasn't strong enough to be a threat. I thought about ways to open the door, but it turned out I didn't need to, because it was already open a crack. Must've been Syaoran, Fai, and Kuro-pin. They came through this way already. I slipped inside, and felt a different kind of magic. Even though this magic was still strong, I could sense what its purpose was. It was an illusion; designed to trick people into walking down an endless hallway for pretty much the rest of their lives if they didn't break the spell. I knew better than to walk down the hall, because it would only confuse me more. Instead, I headed toward the source of all the magic: Sakura's feather. I closed my eyes, and followed the strong magic—and ran right into a wall.

Ouch! I said, opening my eyes again and rubbing my head. Before me was a door, and sure enough, I could feel the strong power of the feather vibrating somewhere beyond it. It was still a while away, but this was where I had to go. I wonder if they're in here… As if to answer my question, I heard a shout from the other room. "My leg!" Hearing the pained sound of Syaoran's voice, I charged into the room, knocking down the door with my shoulder.

The first three things I noticed about the room were this: one, it seemed to be raining huge globs of liquid, and the room was flooded with the liquid. Two, huge columns stuck out of the water, and Fai and Kurogane stood on top of them. And three, there was a lady, watching from the comfort of her canopy bed, her abnormally long fingernails drumming the ground impatiently. I felt an extremely powerful form of magic, and took a defensive stance. Something about her magic made me dizzy. Syaoran was staring down at his leg, which seemed to be burned badly.

"The lake and my spheres are made from the same liquid." The strange woman spoke. "Of course, not everything your eye sees is as it appears." The more the woman spoke, the more I resented her. Every time I heard her shrill voice, I wanted to slice her in half.

Though he was far away from me, Kurogane's voice was loud. "You're telling me that if I fall in the lake, I'm gonna melt?" His voice was flooded with rage and hatred, and for the first time, I felt the same way he did. The woman only smiled slyly, but did not respond.

Fai had jumped on top of a wooden streetlamp, and seemed to be trying to break it. Fai's voice was not quite as fierce as Kurogane's, and I could only barely make out the words. "Kuro-min, break this for me." He pointed to the pole of the lamp.

"Huh? Why?"

Fai smiled. "We won't be able to avoid these spheres empty-handed forever!" He stated. What's so bad about those spheres? And what did Kurogane mean when he said 'melt'?

Kurogane caught on to Fai's plan, breaking a piece off for himself, and shouted, "Do it yourself!" Fai's perch was swaying slowly to one side, and he leapt off of it agilely. I could tell Kurogane wasn't planning to help out any further.

Before I had time to think, I shouted to Fai, "I'll break it!" I revealed my position to the enemy, but at that point, it didn't seem to matter, as long as I was helping my friends. Friends…yeah, that's what they are.

I charged forward, but stopped when Syaoran yelled out to me. "No! Izumi-san, don't! The water melts anything and everything it touches! Don't go in the water!" He warned me. I didn't need to be told twice. I stopped myself at the water's edge, trying to regain my balance before I fell in. Great…I mumbled under my breath angrily. How am I supposed to break the pole if I can't get to it?

Fai's eyes widened in shock when he saw me. "Izumi-san! Go back to Chu'nyan's place! It's too dangerous here!" Fai snapped the pole himself, and grinned as he said to Kurogane, "Now we can destroy the spheres without touching them!" He battled the balls of liquid as if they were any ordinary enemy, and I saw for the first time his true fighting ability. Though he was not as muscular as Kurogane, and not as quick as Syaoran, he had an ability to dodge and strike like I'd never seen before.

The woman with the long nails turned around and noticed me. "Ah…another little worm. And a female! Now this should be interesting." She smiled, and raised her hands—claws—above her head, so that it looked like her nails were intertwined with each other. "Go on, little worm! Let us see how long it takes to kill you!" The water lapped the shore, getting closer to me each time it did. I had to keep on stepping back. When the liquid was nearly up to my toes, I flattened myself against the door. The door! I tried to open it to escape, but it was no use. The woman's magic had sealed it shut. I glanced around the room desperately, looking for tools that would help me escape before I melted. I noticed a beam, jutting out of the wall, but it was too far away from me to reach. The water melted the tips of my shoes, so I had to stand on my toes. Oh, god…

"Izumi-san!" Fai noticed the situation I was in, and jumped off the pole, evading the water as best he could. He used the pole in his hand as sort of a cane, but it quickly melted to a stub, so he had to hop onto another column. "Jump!"

I didn't want to jump, because it was too far for me, but seeing as I could already feel my toenails melting, I jumped anyways. I pushed myself off the door, launching myself into the air, hoping it would give me an extra few feet. It did, luckily, and I grabbed the beam, and scrambled as best I could to get onto it. At last, I was sitting on top of it, breathing heavily from the effort. "I'm okay!" I declared. But now I had a new problem. The spheres were trying to attack me now, and I had to dodge every which way to avoid being turned into human lard. Eugh. Fai broke another piece off the pole, and tossed it to me. I reached out and caught it with one hand, and jumped out of the way of another falling sphere. I realized that I could have stayed on the beam if the water level wasn't rising, but it was, so I didn't have much of a choice but to jump onto one of the columns. "Ahh!" I shrieked as I scrambled onto a column, clinging to it for dear life.

Fai hopped from one column to another, and finally got to the one next to mine. He bent over and held out his hand, and I took it so I could get to my feet. "You alright? Watch out!" He said, as he popped the sphere of liquid that was about to land on my head.

"Yeah…I'm fine. Thanks for that." I mumbled, watching as Fai fended off a few more spheres. "Let me help with that." I offered, picking up my stick and popping a few. It was actually a lot more enjoyable than I thought it would be. Aside from the fact that if I got hit with one of the spheres I would die, it was fun being able to release all of my emotional stress on the spheres. I was good at it, too, and popped three at a time. I threw my head back and laughed, and I didn't know how long ago I had last done that.

Fai saw that I was fine handling the spheres myself, so he hopped back towards Kurogane. As Kurogane popped the spheres, Fai shouted, "Weet-woo! Kuro-pin, you're amazing!"

"I told you to stop saying the sound!" Kurogane seethed. I chuckled, but saw an abnormally large sphere coming right at me. I had to crawl down the side of the column and flatten myself against it, closing my eyes and praying that I would miraculously survive.

And I did. I scuttled back up the column just in time to overhear Fai-san telling Syaoran to go ahead without us. "But you'll die!" Syaoran insisted. He refused to leave without us, and I knew what a brave boy he was.

"Yeah…but numbers won't matter in this battle. Besides, you have some unfinished business to take care of." Fai winked at Syaoran, and told him that he would have to escape through the top of the room, where the magic was thinnest. I agreed, as I could feel the magic growing weaker as it went higher.

"Go, Syaoran. Save Sakura, and don't look back. We'll be fine." I nodded, waving him away. He smiled at me, and Kurogane lifted him onto his stick. With one massive amount of strength, Kurogane flung Syaoran high into the air, and we watched as he disappeared through the top. I nodded and smiled knowingly, and focused what was left of my energy on the current situation.

The woman looked slightly upset for a moment, but said, "You won't get out like you friend did." Her dark words sent chills down my spine, and I got a better grip on the stick in my hands, waiting for the moment she would kill us. She raised her claws again, and something about the way she did so made me feel like I had known her…

I ignored the thought, for immediately, all of the spheres popped at once. It began to rain the deadly liquid, and I knew were in a serious mess. I made my way over to Kurogane and Fai, knowing that I always felt a little safer when I was around them. I stood by them, cringing in pain each time a drop of the water fell on my skin. Fai looked around. "The water hurts, doesn't it?"

Kurogane grunted in agreement. "It melts everything. Clothes, skin…" I gulped at the thought. If the rain picked up, we would be skeletons in less than a minute. A sphere of water came at us, and Fai popped it, not realizing the consequences. I anticipated what would happen next, so I slid down the column, shutting my eyes as tight as I could. When I looked up, Kurogane had jumped out of the way, and used his stick to push Fai out of the way as well.

"Kuro-muu, you're mean!" Fai whined mockingly.

"If I didn't do that, you'd be melted by now." Kurogane reasoned with him.

"I see your point." Fai chuckled nervously. "But you could have done it in a nicer way."

The woman spoke, but I couldn't make out her words. She said something about boredom. Whatever. I did manage to hear what she said afterwards, though. "There was only one other person who lasted this long. A shinban from Ryonfi." The looked down, and I could see a little guilt on her face.

"That would be Chu'nyan's mom, right?" Fai asked. How can he be so darn cheerful at a time like this?! I wondered. We're about to die. I'm clinging to the side of a pole that may give way at any moment, and he's acting like it's no big deal.

"She did mention a daughter of that name."

I heaved my way up to the top of the column once more. I looked at Fai and Kurogane, and saw their ragged clothing. Strangely enough, when I looked down at my own clothes, they weren't harmed at all. On top of that, my skin was not charred like Fai's and Kurogane's. I noticed that the scar left by Kuro-pin's sword was no longer visible, and I was bothered by the fact that nobody else seemed to notice any of this. Even though the water burned, it did not leave any blemishes on my skin or clothing. Magic? I wondered.

The words that left the woman's mouth next left me speechless. "Perhaps what this country needs is not that stupid Ryanban an his son, but that shinban and you children." The woman looked down sadly. "Right now, I cannot leave this place. I cannot reason, and my spirit has been manipulated like a puppet. My own heart doesn't tell me what's right and what's wrong." The woman looked right at me, her glare making my legs weak. "Just like someone else in this room." My heart thudded madly and unevenly, like a chicken running around without its head. "But now… is the time we must part! Farewell, little worms!"

With a flourishing movement, the woman raised her arms above her head again, and a huge wave collected. It swelled in a dark bundle, and I knew that when it crashed down on us, we would die. If the melting water didn't kill us, the impact would. Kurogane grunted. "If we don't do something, we'll die."

Fai shook his head, grinning. "I'm afraid that won't work for me." He announced. Kurogane and I looked at him. "You see, I don't die very easily." Fai chuckled, and for once, I felt hope.

"Then why don't you use some of your magic to get us out of this?" Kurogane growled, eyeing Fai like a tiger eyes its prey.

"Nope. Sorry." Fai smiled.

Kurogane looked up at the massive wave that would soon swallow us. "Well, I don't wanna die, either." He said. But I do. I thought furiously. Might as well get it over with. But something was tugging at my gut, and I knew that I really did want to live. I wanted to solve all the mysteries about my past, and about Fai's, too.

"Kurogane, Fai, I really don't want to die, either. But it's easier said than done, and the odds don't look like they're in our favor." I sighed. "But I want to live." I shook my head angrily. "Even though I say I don't want to, I know that I have to live. If I die here, then…then…" I realized that I was crying. I wiped the tears away with my sleeve, and looked up at them.

The woman tapped her fingernails impatiently. "Are you finished with your final words?" She asked us. Her voice startled me, and I spun around to look at her. Then it hit me: we were going to die.

But apparently, Fai had other plans. He ran towards the woman, Kurogane hot on his tail. I was left behind, feeling the wind as they rushed by me. I stared down into the black water. I will not die! I decided, and was about to follow them, when the worst possible thing happened. My foot slipped on the column.

And I fell.

The water rushed to greet me at a dizzying pace. It engulfed me, and I could feel it eating away at my skin. Fai saw me fall, and I heard him scream, "Izumi!" I willed him to forget about me, and to save himself. Surprisingly, the pain only lasted a few moments. It was a strong pain, and I curled up into a ball to ease it, but when it went away, I was left wondering what was going on. The water was clear, and once the pain was gone, gave me a cool, refreshing feeling. That's weird… I thought, but decided it was best not to complain. I dove deeper under the water, and gasped. For there, shimmering in the lights from above, was a beautiful silver bow. I swam to the surface and took a deep breath, before plunging back into the depths of the water. I lifted the bow in my hand. It was cool and heavy, but it felt right in my hand. I knew that no other bow would suit me as well as this one. I kicked my legs, and maneuvered my way through the maze of columns. I spotted a black bag, and recognized it immediately as a quiver. I saw the arrows sticking out of the end, and pulled one out. It was the most intricate weapon ever imagined. The end had a dark stone, swirled with white. Moonstone. It came to my mind immediately, even though I had never seen moonstone before. The pointed tip was sharp enough to go through iron, and there was a deep blue gem on the very tip. Sapphire…It seemed to whisper to me.

I went through each of the arrows in the quiver. Each of them had a moonstone on the end, but had a different gemstone on the tip. There was one with an amethyst, a tourmaline, a peridot, one with a citrine, and there were more. But the one that attracted me most was the one with a black stone—one that I couldn't identify—on the tip. I put them all back into the quiver, and slung the strap over my shoulder, taking the bow and the arrows with me.

It was only when I broke the surface of the water that I realized how long I had been under. My lungs were about to burst, and each breath I took was very deep. I swam as quickly as I could to the shore, where the woman seemed to be…kissing Kurogane. My ears were so filled with water that I couldn't hear what they were saying. I tapped the water out of my ears and approached the group. They all turned to face me, and the woman grinned. Fai stared at me, open-mouthed. Kurogane 'humphed'.

The woman turned back to Kurogane. "That stone you just broke…it contained the magic that kept me from my own will." The woman explained to Kurogane. I wondered what they were talking about. "Now I'm free. You children had a lot of spirit." The woman sighed. "You wanted to know where the Ryanban is, right? Those bastards are on the top floor of this castle." She nodded. "I guess your friend got there first. But they're going to resort to some cowardly trick, those misers."

"Arigato." The three of us said to the woman, and we headed out the door.

"Wait." The woman said. We all turned around. "You two, you may go. I must talk to your friend. Alone." The woman said to Fai and Kurogane. She waved her hand at them, dismissing them. They looked at each other doubtfully.

"I'll be fine, guys. Really." I assured them. They shrugged, and left. I turned to the woman. "Again, thank you so much. You don't know how much I appreciate what you d—"

"Child, you need not worry about that." The woman said, cutting me off. I looked at her curiously, and she continued. "You have come back, haven't you?" The woman asked me, a new look in her eyes. They were sort of sad, and happy, and worried, all at the same time.

I took a step away from her. "I-I don't know what you mean." I stuttered.

She sighed wistfully. "No. I suppose you wouldn't." She shook her head pitifully, but looked up, eyeing my new weapons. "You came to retrieve those, like you said you would. I was beginning to wonder when you would."

I looked down and saw what she was staring at. "Oh…these?" I asked. She nodded. "I just found them at the bottom…at the bottom of the lake. They were just there. You don't mind, do you?"

She laughed. I was light and cheerful, which came as a shock to me. "No, of course I wouldn't mind. They are rightfully yours. But you did come back to get them and I know that for a fact." She smiled in a way that made me fidgety. "I know…because nobody else would have been able to retrieve those weapons. But I know they are yours, because you were able to make it out alive." The woman noticed the bewildered expression on my face. "Child, the lake was created for the purpose of protecting those weapons. I created the lake upon request, but you would not know what I mean by that. The lake was made so that anyone who wished to steal the weapons would die."

"I…Wait. They're mine? I really don't get that. Please tell me!" I begged.

The woman laughed again, and patted my head. "You have changed much since we last met. You were determined, strong, and brave. And your heart was kind—you thought only of the one you loved."

She had said so much in those three sentences, but the only thing I could say in response was, "You mean we've met before?"

"Only once, child. You came here on a quest—although what exactly that quest was I can't be certain—and you asked me to protect your weapons so you could one day retrieve them." The woman looked at the silver bow in my hand. "You said they would bring back memories."

"But they don't!" I cried, wanting it all to make sense. I wanted to believe what she was telling me, but nothing fit together, and it was impossible to understand her words. "I can't remember a thing!" I threw myself into a fit.

The woman placed her hands on my shoulders, instantly calming me down. "Child, child…please. I cannot explain everything to you. I do not know of exactly what quest you were on. But there is someone who does know. She will tell you." The woman looked at me, her dark eyes searching me for…something. Maybe she thought that I was joking around with her, or something like that. "That woman's name…it is Emeraude. She will help you further, although to what extent, I can't be certain."

"How do you know about this Emeraude? And where do I find her?"

The woman looked at me sadly. "You really don't remember anything at all, do you?" She asked. "You will meet lady Emeraude in the next world you go to. You yourself made sure of that."

I heard a thud coming from above. My mind still in a daze, I waved to her. "I think my friends are in trouble. I have to go." I left, and she smiled still shaking her head like I was a naughty child.

I found myself in a room with an abnormally large amount of people. There were so many that I thought they would make a hole in the ground. Kurogane and Fai were waiting outside the door, Mokona drilling them about how late they were. The moment it saw me, it said, "And you! You were even later than them!"

"She had something to take care of." Fai explained, and that about shut Mokona up.

I looked into the room. The people were all townsfolk, and they seemed to be wondering what the heck was going on. I recognized the Ryanban and his son immediately, and I noticed Syaoran, Chu'nyan and Sakura there as well. "You killed her! You killed my omoni, who was trying to protect the town!" Chu'nyan screamed, enraged. Hot tear spilled down her cheeks. "Omoni said it before! No matter what kind of power you use, the life that is lost cannot be restored!" I felt a twang in my heart. I wanted to rush to her, to tell her that she would be okay, but there was no way I could guarantee anything of the sort. "No matter how much I miss her, I can't see her anymore!" The villagers looked down, sad for her. Chu'nyan looked up again, a new anger in her eyes. "But…how dare you try to trick me!"

"Chu'nyan…" Syaoran said, turning his back to her. "Do you want revenge?" I couldn't believe what I was hearing, but he wasn't finished. "It might help you ease the pain, but this kind of person is not worthy enough for you to kill." At that moment, I realized how smart Syaoran really was. He knew not to kill unless absolutely necessary, and I respected him for that.

Suddenly, a familiar claw enclosed around the Ryanban's face. "This is the end." The woman said darkly. "How dare you imprison me inside this castle." She turned to Syaoran. "Give him to me. I will treat him very nicely." The woman saw me peeking in the room from behind the door, and beckoned to me. Fai, Kurogane and I rushed forward. The woman pointed to my arrows. "The peridot." She winked.

"Of course." I said, and with a swift movement, set the arrow with the peridot on the tip in the notch of the bow. Though I had never used a bow and arrow before, the moment I released the arrow, it shot forward with amazing accuracy, and shot the Ryanban in the heart. He let out a wail in anguish before falling back, limp. The arrow seemed to evaporate.

Before the woman took the Ryanban and his son away, she turned to Chu'nyan. "Are you the one called Chu'nyan?" She asked.

"That's right!" Chu'nyan retorted angrily, realizing this as the woman who killed her mother.

"Your mother was a great shinban." The woman told her, ignoring the tone of disgust in Chu'nyan's voice. "Although she passed away when she fell into the trap set by this Ryanban, she told me she had learned a lot from this battle. She's looking forward to the day when you become a more powerful shinban than she was. Grow strong, so that one day you may rival me."

"I will!"

And with that, the woman was gone, and Syaoran had another feather. Sakura had regained some memories back in that day, and I had gotten some vital information. But Emeraude…I wonder…have I met her before? The question swamped me as we walked back to Chu'nyan's house. That woman...she said she knew me from before...is it possible...?

Syaoran: Psst! Just wanted to say thanks for putting me in this one! You're da bomb!

Me: You're welcome.

Izumi: Hey! What the heck is up with the whole 'I've met these people before' theme? Ugh! So confusing!

Me: Now you're acting up! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?

Kurogane: Maybe you should stop being a pshycotic lunatic. Eh? How does that sound?

Sakura: Yeah! You're weird! People think you're weird, and that's why they don't listen to you!

Me: Yeah, well, then, 'Sakura Sassy-pants'! Look who's talking!

Sakura: You are.

Me: Nuh-uh! You are!

Sakura: No, it's you.

Fai: Can't you two just shut up already? You're embarassing yourselves over the INTERNET.

Me: Yeah? And who really cares about THAT? Nobody cares as long as they're on the internet.

Fai: I do. Duh.

Me: What is wrong with you retards?!

Izumi: There's nothing wrong with US. You're the one who'se making up this stupid conversation.

Me: You're in this stupid conversation, stupid.

Izumi: Well, as of now, I'm not.

Me: Hey! You were supposed to say, "Oh, I am in this stupid conversation, but you are too, so you're the one who'se stupid."

Izumi:

Me: Come back here! Don't ignore me! Wait...what are you doing? AH! HELP!

Fai: I believe she is dangling you above a pit of boiling lava.

Me: Is that even LEGAL?!

Fai: I don't think so. But nobody cares as long as they're on the internet.

Me: Don't you mock me! Get over here and help me out!

Kurogane: We'll all be over here. Where it's safe.

Me: (clears throat, speaks in 'best little girl in the world' voice) Well, you all don't need to worry. It's perfectly safe over here.

Kurogane: You're hanging by a rope. Over lava.

Fai: Let's just say that it's nowhere NEAR safe.
