Major Snippage in effect here:

         "HE'S WHA-MMMPHH!"  Haruka's scream was cut off by a black-
gloved hand covering her mouth.  Nemesis moved his face in close
to Haruka's.

Awww... Shucks. And here we were hoping that Michiru had gone
Dominatrix on us...

         "Like hell you will.  You'll keep your overly-violent,
psychotic, sociopathic self away from her."  Haruka hissed.

Hmmm... Mr. Kettle, meet Miss Pot.

         "Like what?  Go threaten some kittens?  Maybe terrorize a
few kindergarteners?  Wait, I know!  You could hunt down Hello
Kitty and hang her from the Tokyo Tower!"  Setsuna sarcastically
drawled.

Please? Pretty please? I'd pay to see that one.

         Rei proceeded to get very worried.

Rei was only NOW in the story getting very worried? As a precog,
she should be somewhere between bedwetting and a near death
experience.

         "No, you don't.  But Ice had the Mercury Computer wired
straight into her brain for three-fourths of her life with no
adverse side effects whatsoever.  So don't try to scare me.  Just
get me a neural net, a mouth guard so I don't bite through my
tongue, and the relevant data."  Nemesis commanded impatiently.

I can see this one comming....

He reached over to the open panel and removed a mouth
guard.  After placing it in his mouth, he gripped the arms of the
chair and issued a simple "Hit me!"

HA! I did see it comming. I got your number now! You're not
going to get me again...

         "Oh, shut up."  Nemesis groaned, then froze as a piece of
data floated to the top of his brain.  He growled under his
breath, headache dismissed in an instant.  "Those...bitches!"

         "What is it?"  Deus asked worriedly.

         "Galaxia."  Nemesis snarled out as he stood, grabbing the
cryo-tube as he went.  "Uranus and Neptune must *PAY*!"

Okay. You got me again.

         "IthoughtyouwereoutpastPlutoandfiguredyouwouldn'tgetbackint
imeandsowewerescrewedsoIgotinthetube,butyou'rehere,whichmeanswemu
sthavewonandwhereArinandwhere'sSerenityandwhathaveyoubeendoingand
whyareyousoYOUNG?"  He froze in place on Hotaru's lap and stared
at the rest of the Senshi.  "Why are all of you so young?"

You missed an _s_ in there...   ^_^

         "DON'T!  SERENITY FORGAVE THEM!"

Serious Question(tm) here: Does anyone know of a fic where
Serenity didn't? Interesting concept.

"I'm him and he's me, but we're still *we*!"  Ranma snapped

The Docs all said that I had some problems with multiple
personalities, but we're handling it just fine in here!

And with a mental twist, he broke the locks, and
ripped down the walls.  And the Neko-ken came howling out,
screaming to kill, rend, and destroy.

         And everything went...crimson.

To be continued......

Author's Notes:

         Sometimes, I even hate myself for writing cliffhangers.

         Then I realize:  I *LIKE* cliffhangers.  And instantly, I
feel better.  Of course, I usually receive a wide (and rather
inventive) series of death threats after one, but that's pretty
cool, really.

No, No Death Threats here. I wish you a looong life. Preferably with
Akane. With her cooking for you every day. And with her treating
you with all the kind lovingness that a 'manly' man like you could
come to expect. With Nabiki doing your taxes. With Cologne giving
an exclusive private viewing of the latest in French Swimsuits. And
with Kuno mistaking your cajones for melons 'cause they HAVE to be
that big for you to pull a Cliffhanger like this...

Oh, No. I wish you a looong life...

         Anyhoo, my writing time hasn't improved much, as you can
tell.

I wish that my writing was as poor as your.

         BTW, Mage?  You realize this means you owe me a certain fic
about a certain Dream, right?  I'm looking at my Inbox now.  Heh.

Hey Now! Don't tease us like this... Fic?? Come on now...

         Well, I guess now people can start nagging me about Chapter
9.

NAG,NAG,NAG,NAG,NAG,NAG,NAG,NAG,NAG,NAG,NAG,NAG!

*sob*  Does it NEVER end?!

No! Never!

         Oh, just one last thing.  While I know it's pretty
egotistical of me to hope for fanart, I just can't help myself.
On the off chance someone is bored enough to waste their time on
fanart for AtST, I'd love to see it.  (Because my ego could
always use extra armor.)

No promises, but I'll see what I can do.


The Cav man
