I have always wished...
for the dream to become reality
and for the reality to turn into a dream -----
Dawn colored clouds floated over a small tropical island in the middle of a wide ocean in the early morning. In the midst of fleeing darkness and morning light, a sparkling starshower fell into the ocean, this beautiful event was witnessed by three teenaged friends, Sora, Riku and Kairi...
Just then another girl came runing towards the friends, waving fanaticaly and smiling happily, her hair was as golden as the suns rays and her bangs were even spikier than Sora's, her eyes we

the churning of autumn and echoing footfalls on the stairwell
with dusk tasting like our kisses in their eager, sanguine
(bittersweet) youth.
Fearful of depths, I fled your embrace to fall swooning,
each glance a brush of laden finishing, a heart-heresy.
Yesterday I sealed the last box, wiping my brow and wearing
those sage, harried conversations
as only a crushed kite with torn webbing can muster
in the face of distance.
Now, when I smile at you, there are only waves ebbing
across sandbars and our twilights.

The warriors gathered around the big screen in the gummiship's cockpit, on it they could see Leon, Yuffie, Aerith and Cid's faces.
"Hey, what's going on?" Roka asked with a smile. "You haven't already gotten into another invasion?"
"No, everything is well here, but is everything well over there?" Aerith asked. "Anything unusual going on over there?"
"Here everything is like normal." Arin replied.

The incandescent sun shone brightly high up in the blue sky where only thin mackerel clouds were floating by so slowly that one could think that they weren't going anywhere at all. Under the great sapphire sky a sea of the emerald green trees that the forest so jungle like, spread out as far as the eye could see. Deep in the deepest parts of that thick forest where only animals and birds lived, five girls of different nationalities, looks and ages, walked on different paths that all lead through the forest to the same place.

The suffocation affected Sakuya more and more, with her vision

louder and louder...So loud that Saiko, Riku, Arin and Roka could hear him.
"What's going on out there?" Roka questioned as she stared to the door.
"Eh, who cares? Maybe a drunkard." Saiko said and leaned towards a wall.
"Somebody should go out and check what is going on." Riku suggested and
everyone watched Saiko and waited for a response.
"What? I'm not going out there!" She protested loudly.

The wind whipped around the edges of her black mini skirt as she looked down between their bodies. Nothing but more air, clouds and the curve of the Earth several miles below. Bulma took a steadying breath and let her eyes travel up her lover's blue spandex-clad body to rest on his charcoal eyes.
That smirk. She had originally hated the smug half-smile, but it had rapidly become one of the most sexy things about him. Except now when he held her very life in his hands. Vegeta watched her face and it's reaction to the dizzying height he had taken th

Life is something we have fought
Taken by fate and left to rot
I'll pray to the moon for you, do you forgive me?
Broken down by an unknown force
I still feel the pain inside of me
Crystal ball what's to come? Is the future all for me?
We have all seen the light
We all need to find the path
Now we are lost and can't be seen
I can't be seen at all
Sweet sibling forgive me
We've crossed the forbidden land
Our mother now she is gone
Dear brother you're all I've got
Since that fateful day our path has come
Go across the land and find what's lost
Our flame of hope is burning bright
This could be our one last chance

I am gathering flowers for my girl.
She waits beneath the cherry tree,
couched among the leaves upon the grass.
Her beauty is no small thing,
and through the shady boughs
Summer's breath turns the twist of her braid.
The sun is sweeping clear the morning,
turning over slowly into midday
before expiring into unseeing darkness.
These garnered blooms still hardy though,
despite the shortened moments of their existence,
they will colour the chestnut hair I love.
In truth, I cannot stem this smile,
this attitude of quiet pleasure;
she has distilled it like music.
I am gathering flowers for my girl.

The gentle breeze caressed the treetops, leaves too weak to hold on to the branches went flying with it, dancing in the air as they fell. The birds chirped and fluttered amidst the foliage playfully. She loved spring; it was like everything returned to life after being dormant during winter.
Her eyes gazed at everything around them and when she felt a tug at her hand she looked down, smiling lightly at the little girl currently pointing out flowers and animals as they passed by.

Upon arriving back at camp, the ones that had been left behind received them with relieved expressions upon their faces. Both miko and daiyoukai walked slowly, drops of blood staining the ground as they crossed over to the nearest tree.
Jaken and the others asked the lord if he was alright, concern returning to their wide eyes at the sight of his blood-stained haori as the lord took seat under a robust tree. The imp swallowed, not daring to say anything while the children stormed towards the pair.
"Lord Sesshomaru!" Rin cried, stopping a few steps from the daiyoukai to look up at him in

A Lesson in PSI : PSI Basics and How it Relates to the Mother Fandom
Psychic power is a prevalent force in the Mother/Earthbound series. It is the main constituent in all three games, but it has come to my attention that not much is known about it among the fandom, other than how players can best use it to destroy swarms of crows, hippies, and other-worldly bosses. Psychic phenomenon, or Psi, is a very real concept, and has been used and studied for centuries-- increasingly so since the start of the 20th century. In this essay I will explain the very basics of what P

The little green imp emerged hurriedly from the cave to meet his Lord outside, concern and fear evident in its bulgy eyes. He watched as the daiyoukai landed gracefully before him, the beast with two heads following suit.
Jaken inspected the scene, gawking when his eyes fell upon the miko sitting on Ah Un's saddle with two children securely in her arms. "Ka-Kagome?!"

It was a beautiful spring day and the flowers bloomed within every corner. The birds chirped happily and small forest animals ran and hopped through bushes and trees full of blooming flowers. Sakura petals rained down gently and gracefully to form a natural carpet of whites and pinks upon the forest floor.
She had never seen a day as perfect as this one since the death of Naraku two years ago.
Her raven locks danced with the gentle breeze as she sat upon the green hill that over looked the village bellow. H

Why not IchiHime?
There's a lot of reasons why I just can't ship IchiHime, in spite of Orihime's obvious "love" for Ichigo.
***The BIGGEST reason I doubt IchiHime will ever happen is because Kubo himself seems too chickenshit to have Ichigo get together with ANYONE. He doesn't want to piss anyone off by having Ichigo choose between Orihime and Rukia, even though if he had to, I'm certain he would choose Rukia because th

Perrin had enough of all of them. Nobody listened to her. Her father always took action too late. Willow always thought they shouldn't do anything. And Rivek. Rivek was the worst. He just agreed with anything Willow said.
She wrapped her arms around the branch above her head and hoisted herself upward. Let them find her here, she thought, as she lifted herself up by another rung. If they actually wanted to listen to her - or maybe even apologize - they would have to come looking for her.
As she brooded, nestled in the broad arms of the oak, she heard music. She should have picked a tree further away from the castle. A boy with san
