“You won’t believe who we just see in the lobby, Ryuku-san,” Said Sadao Koba.

“Who is that?”

“The dancer, Kristi Yamaguchi. She was just here.”

“Sadao-san, you are mistaken. That was not Kristi Yamaguchi who we just passed,” Ryuku said. ‘Hung over men and their fantasies.’

“Man say she with FBI,” Sadao said insistently.

Tsuki tried correcting her friend. “No, they say she from February.”

Synopsis- As Agent Ripley makes her move to Hong Kong she begins to re-think her Swan Song assignment.

"The bottle of remover stuff got broken and we couldn't get any today, Mrs Peters is having some delivered Monday?" I explained quickly

"Why didn't you let me know, how are you going to go tomorrow like that?" he enquired

SRU: OPERATION SUCKER PUNCH
by Laika Pupkino

Part 1: Feels like Deja Vu Ezra Falling Bird; September 25th, 2006, 9:56 PM The faded brick façade of the outside walls, drew my eye. The sky was dark...it was after nightfall, a full moon overhead. Drawing steadily toward the back door, I noticed an industrial style yellow light that flickered on and off, casting odd shadows on the moonlit lawn as I closed in on the paved sidewalk that led to the door. The yellow light flickered, making a humming noise as it came on, silence...after it went off, some flying insect buzzing noisily around it, like a moth drawn to flame...as if just waiting for the light to flicker back on. Which it did after nary five seconds.

"Stop it with the wise ass remarks," I said angrily. "You aren't helping. I'm trying the best I can. It's six years at least since I swung a club, and longer since I played regularly."

Tree looked long and hard at me.

"I need your help. So help me," I said.

"Okay, but this is going to be a long day."

Just when you think love is a distant dream

Last time:
Drea was surprised that Janet had remembered so many details of her story after hearing it only the one time. She was about to say, “And?” when Janet said,

To all outward appearances Walter Stymis is a conventional upper-middle class American male. Fairly successful, a devoted husband and father. But at any given moment he is likely to be lost in colorful daydreams, the nature of which would no doubt surprise the people around him...

A SISTERS LOVE
By Roni

As I look out my kitchen window I see my two daughters playing in the back yard and it brought back memories of the times my sister and I would play. I remember the first time we played together; my sister is five years older than me so growing up she was always more of a caretaker to me than a sister. Because I was so much younger than her she would use me as a living doll and dress me up in her old clothes. Now this might not sound so unusual to what most sisters do except that I was a boy! Mom would look on and smile allowing her to dress me up; I didn’t mind either I liked wearing her clothes. As we got older the dress up play time got less and less but my desire to wear her clothes didn’t diminish. When I was fourteen she caught me in her room trying on her clothes; I had thought she was away at school but I misjudged the days and she was home for the summer. The look of fear on my face was evident but all she did was smile and then offer to help me out. I loved my sister; she was so open and understanding and never judged me for what I liked to do.

Gaby: Book 2*Summer Girl*Part 56*Sports Day

Wednesday. Even more tests! Boring.

Not quickly enough for me the final bell eventually rang. Maddy was waiting for me at the gates and we walked back to Castle Peters

"You got everything?" Mad asked

"I think so"

"Well I guess that's why we're doing this" she went on

We decided to try a quick change before tea.

"Okay Drew, I reckon we need to do it in about thirty minutes"

"I thought we had about forty minutes"

"Yeah but we need to get to the sports hall in that time too"

The year is 2240 and the world’s governments have crumbled throwing society back into the feudal days of Kings and Emperors. City states grew out of the rubble and they were fought for and fought over constantly. Technology had brought the world to this place in time and now it was being used to defend or attack the city states. Powerful force fields were erected around each city protecting it against attack and allowing its citizens to live in relative safety from attack. Every few months the city states would gather at a common area and battle it out for supremacy; they thought it was more civilized to send in a few gladiators to do battle than to risk most of the lives of their citizens in an all out battle. The gladiators that lost would then be given over to the winning city to be used as slaves or worse! Schools for gladiator training were all over the cities and every boy was encouraged to join one of these schools. Several girls protested that they were not allowed to join and they were told that they were the seed of the future and that they were not going to be risked being turned over to the other cities because of a lost battle. I was born into this society and was expected by my father to be a great gladiator hero like he was and like my brother. My mother thought otherwise and would try whatever she could to protect me and keep me from joining one of the gladiator schools.

Thanks Daddy!

The weight of the world, the need to survive
Has made you believe, that you've got no right
Then out of the blue, you meet someone
Who offers a place, warm as the sun

Not every tear is one of sadness and despair. For each one cried in sorrow, the ones that fall in happiness are all that much more precious.
