Krispy: All right. I think I really have to go sleep now.

Obi-Wan: *looking at watch* If you go now, you will have roughly 3 and 1/2 hours to sleep.

Krispy: Yeah. I can do that. I've gone to school off that much sleep. This should be no problem.

Wing: Yeah...sure...

Steph: Wait! You're LEAVING?!!

Anakin: Didn't you already know this?

Zalari: You won't be back until TUESDAY?!!!

Anakin: In the words of all you people, no DUH!

Obi-Wan: Padawan?

Anakin: Sorry, Master. I couldn't help it.

Steph & Zalari: You're going to leave us here to suffer...THAT *points at the soap opera*

Krispy: Well, technically you all go with me cuz u all live in my head. It's just that I figured you'd want to stay here.

Steph & Zalari: NO!

Krispy: Cuz if you're here you can monitor what they do to you, whereas if you're with me...

Obi-Wan: Besides, we'll be staying here to give you "support" and "restraint". *smile*

Wing: Look, she gave up the Jedi just for you.

Steph: *lunges at Krispy and latches on to her leg* TAKE ME WITH YOU!!! PLEASE!!!

Krispy: *strange look at Steph* Um...don't do that! If I suddenly have a ticklish spell I'm gonna kick you!

Anakin: That is pretty pathetic for someone like you, Stephanie.

Steph: What's "pathetic" is that "me" in the soap opera. For Force's sake! I'm a friggin heartbroken pregnant lump on the floor!!!

Anakin: You've got a point...

Zalari: Hey! If you take her, you're taking me too!

Krispy: Um guys? I never said you couldn't go. I just thought you'd like it here. Besides, I'm pretty sure there's a computer up in Oregon that I can use. So, I should be able to check in.

Wing: Yeah. If you guys aren't here, who knows how much worse things could get!!! At least with you here, you guys can threaten and turn ppl in piles of dust like what Sseriya did to Flight a bit ago.

Steph: But--

Obi-Wan: In the your own words, suck it up! You are the Guardian of Fire. The blood of dragons runs in you, and you're immortal.

Steph: Wow, go Obi with the pep talk!

Krispy: Besides, I'll even leave you...*Golem voice* My Precious.

Steph: Kay! Have fun Krispy.

Zalari: *sigh* I hope you know what you're doing Sseriya.

Steph: *smile* I always know what I'm doing. *grabs Zalari and gives him one heck of a kiss*

Zalari: *stare*

Steph: *breathy voice* How's that for a kiss?

Anakin: You threw her into one of her "live life recklessly" moods...

Steph: *softly into Zalari's ear* You should make that soap opera "you" see what he's giving up. *teasingly brushes lips against his face as she moves away*

Krispy: *shock*snaps out of it* STEPHANIE!!!

Steph: *smirk* Have fun, dearest other self.

Krispy: *practically choking with a mix of shock and rage*

Obi-Wan: *mind-trick*hand wave* You will calm down and go to sleep.

Krispy: *automatically* I will calm down and go to sleep.

Wing: Oh yes, and Krispy would like to leave you both with a present. Well actually, Luce already read this but--something for Alz then? By the way, where are the Firetaily bits?

Prologue

The vast corridor echoed with the clicking of clawed feet on polished floorboards. Glowing orbs bobbed quietly in the air, the light glinting off the drake’s smoky scales. Dragonking Storm let out a low hiss, revealing his frustration. He would be discussing delicate plans with Dragonking Black; plans that inevitably lead to a headache. The drake approached the massive marble doors of the Council Chamber, preparing himself for the task at hand.

The tall figure of Dragonking Black stood patiently at the table in the center of the room. Smooth scales ran like obsidian armor over the drake’s body, shining even in the dim light. Crimson eyes met Storm’s lightning blue ones. He nodded a greeting before turning back to the map he had been studying. Closing the door with a wave of his hand, Dragonking Storm approached the table and let a moment of silence pass between them. The other drake chuckled and faced his companion.

“Relax, Storm. You are much too tense,” he said in the flowing dragon tongue. Storm replied with a dull glare and moved to look more closely at the other side of the map.

“I have doubts,” muttered the drake. Black looked at the other Dragonking questioningly.

“Doubts about this,” he swept a hand over the map, “or doubts about our new ally?”

“He is a questionable character, that one,” snapped Storm. A small growl escaped the agitated drake as he bent over the map again. “We should reconsider, Black.”

“Reconsider what? There is no reason for us to hesitate. Dragon clans have warred before. It is no different now,” said Storm’s companion. There was a harder edge in his tone of voice.

“We are taking Clans that have grown powerful! Look at this! It will take more than our two armies to conquer these Clans, and if they should band against us…”

Deep scarlet swirled within the other drake’s orbs. “So we must move swiftly and cunningly.”

“You give our new ally too much credit.”

“You wish to end this now?”

“Perhaps it would be wise. War is never a matter to take lightly.”

“The others grow too powerful!” hissed Dragonking Black, slamming a clawed fist on the table.

“I feel a black cloud approaching.”

A laugh met the grim premonition.

“Better for us, don’t you think, Lord Storm? Black clouds tend to bring tempests.”

Storm sent another glare at Black before pointedly asking, “Have you heard of the perfect warrior?” His tone was harsh like the autumn wind hissing through bare branches.

“Hmm…the perfect warrior, the ideal soldier, the invulnerable champion; yes, I know of that,” Dragonking Black replied, his cheerful mood still intact. “The perfect warrior does not lose focus in battle, kills quickly and efficiently, and does not suffer from emotional side effects. Your point, Lord Storm?”

Intense blue eyes were tinged orange with worry, but Storm’s voice remained calm.

“That is what we must overcome to take this land.”

A curved silver nail tapped the map, showing Silvra, the domain of the Emerald dragons.

Krispy: Dang it Luce! BLOG!!!

Obi-Wan: She needs to go to sleep because she needs to wake up at 3 or so in the morning.

Krispy: Ok I'm going to sit here for a little more...by the way, I'm going away this weekend Alz. Luce knows already. I won't be back until TUESDAY night. I was wrong--I thought it was Monday--it isn't.

Anakin: Krispy would also like you to know that she really has no clue what Zalari, Steph, and Wing look like in detail. Stephanie is the most detailed but for the most part their appearances are kind of hard to pin down. So basically, Alz--we trust you. Go ahead and take those artistic liberties.

Krispy: However, you cannot sue me if any of those 3 try to kill you, but I doubt they will because you're talented like that. And Krunchy/Fushigi Panda/BoBo are completely out of my control. Okay, I may or may not be back later...HURRY UP LUCE!!!

Krispy: ...*glazed over look*

Obi-Wan: *standing over Steph and Zalari* They seem all right.

Anakin: Seem being the key word.

Wing: Anakin?

Anakin: What?

Wing: Stop that.

Obi-Wan: *waving a hand in front of Krispy's face* Krispy?

Anakin: *humming Avril's My World*

Obi-Wan: *glare*

Krispy: *snaps out of it and joins Anakin* Can't help it if I space in a daze. My eyes tune out the other way. I may switch off and go in a daydream. In this head my thoughts are deep. Sometimes I can't even speak. Will someone be and not pretend I'm off again in my world.

Wing: Right...

Krispy: *poking at Steph & Zalari with foot* Guys?

Steph: *waking up* WILL YOU STOP KICKING ME?!!!

Anakin: You are pregnant?

Steph: NO! I AM NOT PREGNANT!!!

Zalari: *sitting up* I had this horrible night--

Obi-Wan: Sorry, but--

Zalari: Great...*lies back down*

Krispy: Hey! Don't pass out again! Dang it! Stay with me!

Zalari: *dully* I'm not about to pass out again.

Anakin: We're Jedi but none of us are Healers or Mindhealers for that matter! Please, no more fainting spells or *pointed look at Krispy* heart failures.

Obi-Wan: *jokingly* And please, no one have a baby.

Steph: *close to hysterical* I'm not carrying his child!

Wing: *smirk* Weren't you two betrothed?

Zalari: *glare* Wing...

Anakin: Betrothed? As in engaged?

Steph: *stonily* Nothing happened.

Flight: *sneer* A likely story.

Firetail: *calmly* Unforgivable...

Steph: Please, allow me.

Firetail: Be my guest.

Steph: *points hand at Flight*turn hand palm up*curl fingers into a fist*

Flight: AAAAHHHHH!!! *fire shoots from the floor and engulfs Flight*

Firetail: Very nice.

Steph: Thank you.

Krispy: Er...Nanny Houseki? *bursts into uncontrollable laughter*

Obi-Wan: *raises an eyebrow* Krispy?

Anakin: ffft...*trying not to laugh*

Zalari: As G always put it...Someone stop the madness...

Krispy: *hyperventilating*

Anakin: No! Not yet! Not this early in the morning!!! ALZ!!!

Obi-Wan: Early? It's already 10:36 as of now.

Anakin: But it's still the first thing in the morning! And I'm not sending her back to sleep again! She just GOT UP!!!

Krispy: By. The. Bloody. Force...

Anakin: Please, don't pass out again...*struck by an idea*hand motion* You will not faint.

Krispy: *automatically* I will not faint.

Obi-Wan: *picking up*hand motion* You will calm down, and you will not pass out in any way.

Krispy: I will calm down and will not pass out in any way.

Obi-Wan: Good.

Wing: You people are very--strange...Alz, a catfight this early in the morning?

Anakin: As Master pointed out, it's not early.

Krispy: *blinks* Hey! Did you two just use Jedi mind tricks on me?!!!

Jedi: *innocently* No. Of course not.

Krispy: *suspiciously eyes them* Right...

Steph: *still half in Zalari's arms* YOU CHEATED ON ME?!!!

Zalari: WHAT?!!! Are you actually GOING by what Alz wrote?!!!

Steph: *pulling away* With FIRETAIL?!!!

Zalari: Sseriya!!!

Steph: I can't believe this! *hurt* I thought you loved me.

Zalari: Someone shoot me.

Anakin: Er...I don't have a blaster but--*pulls out lightsaber* I have this.

Krispy: What do you think you're doing, Padawan Skywalker?!!!

Anakin: *innocent smile* Nothing, Master.

Steph: *smile* Oh cheer up, dearest. The temptation was too great, I had to mess around with you. Sorry.

Krispy: Like I said before THE CHILDREN!!! Now look at this mess!!! WHY ALZ, WHY?!!! Why did you have to involve the children?!!!

Steph: Tenshi! How could you cheat on your own wife when you have kids?!!! And with me no less!!! *marches up to Tenshi and slaps him*

Tenshi: What?!!! I didn--

Krispy: Save your pathetic excuses! *marches up to Tenshi and flings a glass of water at him*

Tenshi: But I--

Anakin: No "but"s! *smacks him with a weighted boot* Hey! I got my boots back!!! *starts putting his long missing boots back on*

Tenshi: *glare* I'm sensing a trend here...

Steph: *tearful voice* Yes! A trend of lies and deceit! You bas--

Krispy: CHILDREN!!!

Steph: --set hound! *flings another glass of water at him*

Krispy: The poor children! *flings more water at Tenshi*

Tenshi: Will you STOP IT?!!!

Krispy & Steph: NO! *both fling water at him*

Tenshi: *muttering under his breath as he walks away dripping wet*

Wing: So Zalari, are you going to sit here and plot revenge like Firetail is?

Zalari: I don't know. Revenge was never my thing. I left that to Sseriya.

Steph: I can plan revenge for you! *wide grin*

Wing: Which is exactly--

Zalari: What I don't want you to do.

Steph: *shrug* Fine then, suit yourself.

Obi-Wan: So, Stephanie, what will your husband say about all this.

Steph: Well, 1) I'm an actress--apparently one that is currently playing in a soap opera 2) Zalari kissed me.

Anakin: Yeah well he kissed Firetail too.

Zalari: *zaps Anakin* I did not do any such thing.

Anakin: Ow...

Krispy: Should someone go help Flight?

Obi-Wan: This time, we are wisely staying out of it.

Steph: Good call, Master Kenobi.

Krispy: *falls over with a BANG*

Steph: *stare*

Wing: *stare*

Obi-Wan: *tending to Krispy* She seems all right.

Anakin: *taking Krispy's pulse* Are you sure? You can never tell with her...

Zalari: Not this again...*starts banging head on wall*

Steph: That was...unexpected...

Wing: To say the least...

Anakin: *yelling at Krispy* HEY KRISPY!!! WAKE UP!!!

Obi-Wan: Perhaps you shouldn't do that. She may go deaf.

Steph: Luce, you are so dead.

Wing: Firetail is going to kill you...slowly...

Krispy: *mumble* That's why she hid. *faint*

Obi-Wan: Krispy? *shaking her*

Anakin: Should I dig another trench?

Wing: It's not your problem. Don't get involved--u know all that Jedi stuff.

Obi-Wan: *gives Zalari concerned look* You know, that isn't very...*wince*...healthy...

Steph: *sigh*marches over to Zalari* Dude, stop it. You have more brain cells than the rest of us so don't go killing them off!!!

Zalari: *stops*gives Steph a strange look*

Steph: *smile* What? You are killing them!

Zalari: For the last time, I'm not gay.

Steph: You know, Luce is just never going to get over that. Look at poor--*pauses*thinks* Wait a sec, you're not gonna do that scary thing again and actually like join Firetail in his pursuit of Luce?

Zalari: *shrugs* I just might.

Wing: You obviously have a mean streak.

Anakin: Doesn't everyone?

Zalari: *abruptly turns to Steph* I love you.

Steph: *stare* Um...oookay...I-I-I knew that but--

Stephanie was abruptly cut off when Zalari embraced her and then gave her a passionate kiss. The Jedi and Wing stared in open-mouthed shock. Krispy sat in much the same shock, making noises like "eep" and "ehh" and "but". Zalari pulled away, giving Stephanie an apologetic smile.

Krispy: *finally getting some form of speech back* OMG!!! The--the--THE CHILDREN!!!

Steph: *breathlessly*in Luce's general direction* He is so not gay...*swooning*

Obi-Wan: *supporting Steph* Stephanie, please don't pull what Krispy just did.

Krispy: *screaming at Zalari* I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU JUST DID THAT!!!

Anakin: *teasingly* You just really wanted to kiss her, didn't you?

Zalari: *glare*

Wing: Sseriya! I thought you were married!

Krispy: *hysterical* SHE IS!!!

Steph: *absently* I...am...

Krispy: SNAP OUT OF IT!!!

Obi-Wan: *sigh* Luce, now look at all the conflict you caused...

Anakin: Even Jedi have limitations as to how much peace they can keep.

Seastar: Zalari loves Stephanie?

Krispy: NO!

Wing: No?

Steph: *still in a daze* Yes, he does. He loves me very much...

Krispy: NUH UH!!! NEIN NEIN NEIN!!!

Tenya: You two are nice together, don't you think Seastar-chan?

Seastar: *nods vehemently*

Krispy: NO NO NO!!! Stephanie is friggin MARRIED!!! As in "UNTIL DEATH DO US PART"!!! As in SHE LOVES SOMEONE ELSE!!!

Twins: But--

Wing: It's no use arguing, especially now. Krispy is quite unstable and--*cough* Jedi, I think it is time for Krispy's medication?

Obi-Wan: Indeed.

Krispy: NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I DO NOT NEED MEDICATION!!!

Anakin: *sigh*with a powerful Jedi suggestion*hand wave* You will go to sleep now.

Krispy: *automatically* I will go to sleep now.

Obi-Wan: Good call, Padawan.

Steph: Alz, jeans are fine...just stick the boots underneath...

Krispy: She's weird like that. She's almost more comfortable in boots than barefoot.

Anakin: Almost being the key word?

Krispy: *weird look at Anakin* What is up with you Jedi today?

Obi-Wan: You have done nothing very academic for the last 2 days.

Wing: So that is how you're affected by lack of intelligence?

Krispy: Wing, watch your mouth. NEway, Luce, this layout scared me.

Zalari: Don't the layouts usually scare you?

Krispy: Hey! Don't you start smart-mouthing me! *cough* Anyway...but really. There's SO MANY PEOPLE!!!

Steph: Well you know how Luce is. Gotta have a change of scenery or else she'll go insane.

Zalari: It's called procrastination.

Wing: You know, it's like a drug.

Anakin: And she's completely addicted to it.

Obi-Wan: And can't get off.

Krispy: *glare* Stop taking my words!!!

Steph: Er as for Selendrile, no it doesn't really matter what arm she's on. I can use her either way.

Krispy: Apparently she is somewhat ambidextrous.

Steph: You have to be. That way when some idiot has just dislocated your sword-arm you can still whack his head off by using your other arm.

Anakin: You did that?

Zalari: When exactly did you do that?

Krispy: *stare* Who did you do that to?!!!

Steph: *shrug*studying finger-nails* Oh...some idiot...

Wing: I wouldn't put it past you...

Steph: *smile* Smart bird.

Wing: I resent that.

Obi-Wan: Aside from the violent content of that dialogue, Stephanie has a point. That isn't a bad idea.

Steph: Yep. Makes the first rule of battle a lot easier to uphold.

Wing: And what would that be in your book?

Steph: Don't get killed.

Krispy: Practical.

Anakin: Obvious.

Zalari: And rule two would be?

Steph: *shrug* Don't lose.

Obi-Wan: As simple as that...

Steph: Sure. Why not? *smile*

Obi-Wan: You are--

Anakin: Interesting, very very interesting.

Krispy: Yes, Zalari's hair is short and bronze-ish...he's from the Bronze Clan, right? Heh...and um...Tenshi...*evil smile* Do you have a thing for Steph?

Steph: Oh you are bad Krispy. *mischievous smile*

Anakin: Tsk tsk. What would Silverfall say about this?

Wing: You have children for heaven's sake!

Tenshi: *speechless*

Obi-Wan: *sternly* I completely disapprove of this behavior.

Zalari: *shaking his head* I'm very disappointed.

Tenshi: *still speechless*

Steph: Wait...why am I answering? It's YOUR job!!!

Krispy: Well right now I'm busy saving all the html from If Only after a huge scare that I might have had all the records of our stupidity erased from the face of this earth!!!

Wing: Isn't that a good thing?

Krispy: SHUT UP!!! It isn't when stupidity is all you have!!!

Anakin: That was a very sad statement.

Krispy: Hey Brat-Child! Don't you ever underestimate the power of stupid ppl in large numbers.

Zalari: *calmly* After all, 3 slightly insane girls managed to kidnap you and your Master.

Anakin: *silence*

Steph: Wow. You shut him up.

Zalari: *shrug* It's a gift.

Krispy: Yeah. He shuts you up real quick too. *smirk*

Steph: *glare* Watch it!

Obi-Wan: 6-inch spike heel boots? Wouldn't that be uncomfortable?

Steph: No duh. It was that kitsune's brilliant idea. *points a thumb at Tenshi*

Wing: Well like Flight said--

Tenshi: *GLARE*

Wing: Right--I won't repeat what Flight said.

Obi-Wan: Hmm...Wing and Flight. That's interesting.

Flight: If you won't repeat it then I will. *evil grin* Kinky, eh?

Tenshi: *choke* *gurgle* *turning an unhealthy shade of red*

Krispy: *trying not to laugh* And...*hahahahahaha* Alz, Ch. 9 has been sent back to Luce. Like I said, I was *hahahahahahahaha* stuck...BUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Anakin: Poor Tenshi. I almost feel sorry for him. *surpressing laughter*

Obi-Wan: *not able to hold back smile* Almost being the keyword?

Anakin: *trying really hard not to laugh* Yes, Master. It's all in the wording, isn't it?

Zalari: You two are going to explode if you don't just let it out.

Obi-Wan: *waving him off* No...no...*finding it harder to keep himself under control* We're fine.

Steph: *recovering * Hmm...anyway...Selendrile is gold with these adorable little ruby eyes...*getting all girly and excited*

Wing: Only someone like you would find sharp pointy objects adorable.

Krispy: *grin* Why not?

Wing: Oh...you too...

Steph: And well she takes the form of those twisty thinger-ma-bobbers...

Anakin: Thinger-ma-bobbers?

Krispy: I really don't know either...twisty?

Steph: I told you! This is not MY FRIGGIN JOB!!!

Krispy: *sigh* You know those snake-shaped bracelet/armlet things that when put on look wrapped around the arm...my mom has one. Hehe. Very fun to play with.

Steph: You mean that thin silverish one? It's so cute! The little--

Obi-Wan: *cough* Ladies?

Krispy: Are you calling me a lady?

Wing: Master Jedi, just nod.

Steph: And the boots--yes black leather but NOT thigh high OR spiky OR with six inch heels...*pointed look at Tenshi who is still being tormented by Luce, Flight, and Alz* Knee-high usually.

Krispy: Well sorry Alz...gotta go again...have a scene to finish and I'm STILL WAITING!!! *cough* Right. And Zalari...er...well...he's...there. *smile* Bye!

Alz: NO!!! NEED TO KNOW WHAT HAIR LOOK LIKE!!!

Anakin: Poor Alz. I almost feel sorry for her.

Obi-Wan: *smile* Almost being the keyword?

Anakin: Yes, Master. It's all in the wording, isn't it? *smile*

Wing: *looking at Luce* I thought you were the Rat-Trainer.

Luce: *still hiding behind Obi-Wan* I AM but I don't actually train them!!!

Wing: ???

Zalari: *shrug*

Krispy: As for Wing, Alz...I don't really even know what he looks like.

Wing: *glare* Thanks.

Krispy: He's just sort of...

Anakin: THERE.

Steph: I...er...I'm blonde? *really fake bimbo giggle*

Krispy: Ooooookkkkkkkkaaaaaaaayyyyyy...*backing away slowly*

Anakin: *wince*imitation of Krispy* Don't do that!

Steph: *giggle*cough* Sorry...got stuck in Valley Girl mode...I...Alz!!! Why do you have to make things so hard for me!!!

Obi-Wan: *smile* Whiny aren't we?

Steph: *pout* Leave me alone...

Obi-Wan: *in a very flat Jedi-observation tone* Human, female, about 5'6, golden eyes, hair of similar color--

Anakin: *picks up where Obi-Wan left off* Layered hair goes half way down her back, lightly tanned skin...

Krispy: *trying not to laugh* Not like here where everything is soft and...smooth...

Steph: *smacks Anakin*

Anakin: What the heck!!! SHE SAID IT!!!

Steph: *blinks* Oh...hehe...sorry. Reflex.

Wing: At least she didn't blast you into oblivion.

Zalari: What is this? Star Wars reference day?

Steph: I wear pants Alz. Put me in a dress and--

Krispy: She prefers pants. Dresses--well it just depends on her mood.

Steph: And boots! Don't forget the boots! *smile*

Anakin: Hey! What ever happened to my boots?

Krispy: *ignores Anakin* Stephanie usually wears Selendrile as a bracelet on her right forearm cuz well that's her sword hand.

Steph: Er maybe we'll come up with more...Zalari and I have the same eyes.

Obi-Wan: Really?

Krispy: WHAT?! *grabs Zalari*

Zalari: Ow...you have claws...did you know that?

Krispy: YOU DO!!!

Steph: There's the new thing you've learned today.

Anakin: Boots?!!!

Krispy: By the way...Alz, I'm waiting for something nice to pop up in my mailbox!!! U see all I have to do is take a picture of the Clef pic and send it over there so...

Steph: We're waiting. *grin* Besides, she's writing too!

Krispy: By the way, how's the group blog picture working out?

::: spewed by Krispy at 11:19 AM

 
Krispy: HA! I'm BACK!!!

Wing: *sarcastically* Force, save us!

Krispy: *kisses Wing on the cheek* I love you too!

Steph: You are strangely cheerful today...strange especially since your schedule situation still remains...

Obi-Wan: Uncertain. *taking off blind-fold and looking around* Your Master isn't still hanging around here, is she?

Anakin: No Master. She left the day she showed up.

Obi-Wan: Good.

Zalari: Isn't taking that blind-fold off a bad thing?

Obi-Wan: *calmly* I'm Jedi. We learn to get rid of unwanted substances from our system with subtle Force healing.

Anakin: In other words, it wore off with some concentration on Master's part.

Zalari: How interesting...

Krispy: Anywayz...looks like Alz got in here before me.

Steph: Yep. She came in here spouting off that German but I don't know Deutsch like you and Obi-Wan isn't that talented.

Krispy: ...Das ist sehr sehr viel Deutsch!!!

Wing: Tell me about it.

Krispy: YOU know German too?

Wing: No. I just made an inference from your tone of voice.

Krispy & Steph: *stare*

Krispy: So anyway, Alz, I had to grab my German 3 book and look up some of those words. You see, I looked up the ones I thought I was supposed to know but had forgotten only to find that the words I thought I was supposed to know I haven't actually learned yet. But er...here's a sad translation...which probably won't do any good cuz I don't know all those nouns!!! *clears throat* Ahem!

"White"--they fight (no idea where "statt" came from cuz thatz usually a prefix attached to a verb)...and "des Gesetzes" would mean "of the Law" as in "Law is in the possessive case" so "They fight of the Law"?

For the (dunno what Geliebte is) or their own (dunno what Rache is), for Truth,

Or around Tracks from own Life to leave behind their black (dunno Henker and I have no clue where "hin" is supposed to belong to cuz thatz a prefix too)

(not sure what denen does) it was long, through the (dunno Maschen) of the Law to (dunno schlupfen)

And in the Underworld (no idea what unterzutauchnen is).

"White"--they fight to the (dunno Verteidigung) of the "White",

That in our time remains still preserved.

Weiss Kreuz= White Cross.

Steph: Well, wasn't that educational.

Obi-Wan: That made absolutely no sense.

Krispy: I realize that but is it my fault I don't have a HUGE vocabulary and that my German book doesn't have some of those words and what the heck is up with the sentence structure up there?!!

Wing: All in one breath huh?

Anakin: She does that ALL the time.

Zalari: Krispy? Didn't you have something for Alz?

Krispy: Right. Well, first off, Luce has ch. 9 of SOH again cuz I'm stuck so I sent her what I wrote and hopefully she can figure things out. The other thing...*smile* I drew Alz. It's a big picture too. A full page face shot of--

Steph: *smirk* None other than the OVA Clef.

Zalari: And it's colored.

Anakin: As colored as it can be cuz the picture she used did this interesting black and white thing but the purple color of the jewels and the purplish tint of his hair remained.

Wing: Plus instead of leaving his eyes in shades of gray, she did those in color.

Obi-Wan: Granted that Krispy thinks it sucks, she's pretty satisfied with it.

Steph: But--

Anakin: There's ALWAYS a "but"

Krispy: I want some Firetaily bits, Alz! This is just "our" little side transaction now. I would have done something like this to Luce but she's my partner and we need to work together. *grin*

Obi-Wan: She also wrote.

Krispy: Yes. That string you gave me--well I'm still trying to figure one out for an overall story. The bright side is that I thought up an opening scene so thatz good right? Hehe...

Steph: So Alz, we're waiting for some business.
