Wow, I can't believe it's been so long since I've posted here. I've really got to work on that. I've finally finished two one-shots. One for DeathNoteMaker and the other for KagomeYukiNiwa. The one for DeathNoteMaker, is for the moment, only viewable to her, but the one-shot for KagomeYukiNiwa, has been posted to my Fanfiction.net and Mediaminer account, it is a D.N. Angel/Inuyasha crossover, with a Kagome/Dark pairing.

Title:Mishaps and Mayhem

Summary:
A story in which Dark attempts to restore his damaged pride, by getting back at Kagome...only to fail, horribly. Multiple times.

Woo-hoo! Obama wins! I would elaborate more, but I'm going to go join my mom jumping up and down in joy, before calling family back home. His speech is going to start now. GO OBAMA! Finally, a president we can believe in.

Okay the Duzell/Kagome one-shot for Bishonen'sFoxyMiko is finally up after some formatting problems! Links below:

I'm finally back! I actually forgot about LJ for a while *sweatdrops* . Anyway after several long months of Hiatus on my stories I'm going to be attempting to get back into the swing of things. I should have a new one-shot added to my collection, a challenge by Bishonen'sFoxyMiko, a Duzzell/Kagome one. Right now I'm at 6 pages and still just getting into it, so it'll probably be pretty long. Anyway I guess that's it for now. BTW, Has anyone seen Kura around?

~Kage

Yes I'm alive and with a new one-shot! It's a Kakashi/Kagome this time. Since I can't seem to get back on with my old stories which is till frustrating as heck. But yes I am taking requests for now to see if I can still get back into writing. Anyway, here's the links to my new one-shot. Enjoy!

That's it for now!

Ja!

Wow, it's been about two months since I've posted anything. Sorry about that. I was sick for a lot of the Christmas break and I've been in a slump with my writing. I'm trying but everything I write I don't like. Hopefully it'll kick soon. And school started today. Hm...I'm going to try and get something out by the end of this month but I'm not promising anything. Maa. I'm going to try and get back to work. Wish me luck.

~Kage

Hello all!

Unfortunately I haven't had time to work on my stories, or do much of anything except study these past couple of weeks. Finals are nearly upon me so you probably won't see anything from me until sometime during winter recess. I haven't talked to Kura in what must be months and I miss her! Hopefully I'll be able to talk to you soon, sister I miss you so much! We have so much to catch up on. I need to manage my time better so I can talk to you regularly...Anyway I need to go now, I have two tests tomorrow. Bleh.

Ja ne,

~Kage

Hola! Another one-shot is up on fanfiction.net and mediaminer.org as of now. It's the Hidan/Kagome one that I was working on it. I enjoyed writing it, and considered putting another angle on the ending with the two "Gods" dueling it out or something, but decided not to do that in this one, because this wasn't really about religion and stuff. Perhaps later I'll go back and edit something in, that's a very big if. Anyway here's the link to it if anyone is interested.

Sorry Kura! I've missed you for about two weeks now! I'm going to try and get online on Sunday. But it's just been a miserable two weeks. I mean last week with my father coming to visit and the whole food poisoning thing...I'm sure you can guess how that was, like the flu with no fever. This week my mom is here...It's not bad, I like my mom, but I've gone to the dentist and had two extraction surgeries and a total of 10 shots, 4 the first time, 6 the second. Oh joy. Note to self: If Micah ever kicks me in the face and chips my tooth (thank God they were the back molars no one is ever going to see) again I'm going to get it fixed right away. The surgery didn't hurt so much as it was a bother, and I can't eat any hard food...Or yawn...Yes I am feeling very sorry for myself -_-' it'll be over soon. The antibiotics make me nauseous and pretty much induce something like food poisoning on me...The whole sore stomach, vomiting (well not that yet, and hopefully not at all) etc.

Oh yeah...And my brother got a lip ring. It's a stud right now and I hope it don't get infected...Yeah...I bet it looks pretty cool. I Miss my dogs and this self pity can't be good for me. *sigh* I wish I could talk to you right now Kura, I could listen to what's going on in your life to distract me from mine...Or I could whine to you and you'd make me laugh *grins* Maybe I can try get on tonight...

Anyway, I guess that's enough of this.

I'll post an updated LJ later on. And the Kuronue/Kagome is almost finished, just going through final editing.

Ja ne,

~Kage

Mah. Sorry I kinda disappeared for a while, especially you Kura, I know we were supposed to catch up last weekend, unfortunately my Dad was visiting and somehow, over the weekend while I was with my dad, I got food poisoning. I'm still feeling very queasy, can't hold nothing down and everything comes back out...but I am finally able to look at the computer without getting dizzy. My mom's coming up next week, so I don't know how much time I'll get to go on. And make up work. On a good note, I only have maybe two more pages of my Kuronue/Kagome oneshot and that will be coming out this weekend. So keep an eye out.

Ja ne,

Kage

Woo-hoo!

Okay, I've finally moved into my apartment which is thankfully just a 5 minute walk from campus. Unfortunately school has started and I have work to do already. ^_^' But luckily for you my lovelies my Kuronue/Kagome one-shot is 2116 words strong and about half-way done. So hopefully I can get it out soon.

It's a bit of a weird feeling being so far from home and my babies (when I say babies of course I mean my dogs). And I haven't talked to Kura in months, I miss her, has anybody seen her? Well I'll update with a progress report soon, as soon as I finish my English and Psych work.

By the way, I'm on AIM right now if you want to talk *cough* Kura *cough*

Ja!

Convention of Killers: Chapter 10: Illusions has been uploaded! It's unfortunately to my dissatisfaction a filler chapter, however the next chapter will be better. I need to get back into the swing of things.

Enjoy,

Hopefully I'll have more updates soon. And exciting ones rather than fillers!

Ja ne,

Okay, for all of those of you who have been waiting so patiently, the next chapter, Chapter 6: To Remember of Fuyu Yume is out!

I'm working on Chapter 7 of Fuyu Yume, the next chapter of Convention of Killers, and What Revenge Brings as well as the revisions for From Friends to Lovers and Genkai's Daughter. Hopefully I can get those out soon. Kura, if your reading this, any preferences, for your birthday?

Ja ne!

Once again I'm sooo sorry, I've been sick since Friday Last week and am still recovering. Not to mention things have been hectic, hopefully I can get on sometime later this morning. Today is my mom's 50th birthday and I still have to bake her cake and prepare the dinner and her present. I hope she likes it. Anyway...This is just a quick update because I have no time. Oh and my brother got a job at this Japanese restaurant as a waiter! I'll write more later...maybe. Depends.

If you left me an email or message I'll try and get to it later today!

I hope I can get on to talk to you later Kura! Love you!

Ja ne,

~Kage

Forgive me, Kura!

I'm sorry I haven't been getting on lately, things are still very hectic, I'm cleaning and packing and training the new puppy. Yes! The new puppy! My mom simply couldn't wait until she moved up to the mainland next year to get the Coton de tulear, so she decided to get another Bichon Frise, like Benji. This one is male, approximately 8 weeks old, almost 9 now. We got him on June 7, his name is Beauchien, or was it Beau-Chien? Meh. It means handsome dog in french. Beau for short. Anyway, now I'm the one training him and dealing with his incessant need for attention and needing not to be left alone. He's adorable, but I think Benji's a little jealous.

*sigh*. I need to find my cell to call my college counselor about classes, and even better I have dinner with my dad and grandfather tomorrow. Not quite sure how I feel about it. We're going to Todai a japanese cuisine restaurant. And I really hope my grandfather's girlfriend isn't there, I mean I'm happy that he's happy but it's kinda weird being that he's in his 70's and his girlfriend is in her 20's! Kinda disturbing...She could be my sister. Meh.

I am working on my stories and will hopefully have a progress report up sometime this weekend along with updates, hopefully. And I will make it my mission to get onto AIM this weekend, both days, hopefully nothing comes up....again...I'm tired. Need. Sleep.

Ja ne,

~Kage

P.S.--I Miss you Kura, I'll try and see you this weekend if not earlier!

P.P.S. Does anyone know the best way to transport an External Hard drive from Hawaii to Nevada? Should I bring it on the plane? Ship it? And if shipping how?

Koa is gone, he was given to my neighbor on friday. I was so sad *sniffles* however we knew when we got him that we most likely couldn't keep him, because my mom doesn't like dogs that are going to get big, he went to a good home with another terrier mix around his age. Maybe I'll post pictures later.

Anyway we plan to get a Coton de Tulear it's a cute rather small dog related to the Bichon Frise (like Benji). It's rather new to North America, and costs somewhere between 700 to up to 4000 dollars, we'll probably get one in Nevada when the rest of my family moves up.

School has been out for about a week now I'm working on my Kuronue/Kagome one shot and packing and stuff. So expect something new for my one-shots and chapter stories sometime soon--hopefully.

As for my mother and father's divorce I think they've come to an agreement (after a few days of ugly words and lots of hang ups, etc) we just have to wait for my father's lawyer to draw up the papers so my mom's lawyer can read it over and discuss it with her. Anyway--here's to hoping all goes well. And getting another story and/or chapter up soon! Not to mention talking to Kura soon! I miss her and am hoping to talk to her again soon!

Ja ne,

~Kage

Okay, It is finally official, I'm moving! Woo-hoo! At first we were a bit unsure because my mom could only retire in August (which is when the Fall term for UNLV starts), but we (my mom and I) decided it would be okay if I went up ahead of them and rented a small apartment (1 bed/1 bath) close to campus, until they move up either in the winter of 2007 or summer of 2008. I'm really looking forward to it, unfortunately I am going to miss Benji a lot.

My mom's going up to look at apartments sometime in June I believe, while I settle some affairs here, and find out how to access that pesky college fund I have instead of using up all my bonds. I can only move whatever we can bring on the plane and what we ship via UPS or something. So no furniture, everything we'll have to buy new and well I and my mom (because she's helping me) have a lot of work ahead of us...So...that may mean another delay with my stories, but hopefully I can get something done.

Oh, yeah, we got a new puppy named Koa! He's a Heeler, Terrier, Dachshund mix. Unfortunately now we may have to give him to one of our friends, Benji doesn't really get along with him and what Benji want's Benji gets *sigh* It's not really finalized, I thought about bringing Koa up with me but it would be too difficult to deal with a puppy that's not even a year yet and working and school...I'll put his picture up later! He has the prettiest blue eyes!

This is finals week and I have a few projects left to finish up so don't expect to hear much out of me for a while, I know my email is backed up again. Sorry I missed some of you. Anyway, One of my stories may be deleted "Outwitted" I don't really like it and remember where I'm going with it. I'll either just delete it or give it away to someone who wants to continue it and/or fix it up.

Sorry Kura! I probably won't be able to talk to you this week! I'll do my best to get online on Sunday! Love you!


Ja ne!

~Kage

Ma. I'm sorry for not updating in a while, not even a one-shot has come out of me...Things have gotten really hectic with school and I probably won't be able to get another update or one-shot out until after the semester's over and still haven't decided whether or not to take a summer course. *sighs* Well maybe I'll get something done before the end of this term, but I have a lot of things to do...So we'll see how things go.

By the way, has anyone seen Kura around? I haven't talked to her in months and am rather concerned and horribly missing her. It seems every time (which hasn't been as much as I'd like) I go on she's not there...Anyway, just a concerned gal looking for her missing sister...

Ja ne,

~Kage

Hey is anyone else having problems uploading new chapters to Fanfiction.net? I don't know why but it's not letting me upload my new oneshot to my Entrap Me collection. Anyway. It's finished so I'm going to try and finish that Kuronue/Kagome one I have going. I'll post the link to the new one-shot in case any of your are interested when I can get it up on Fanfiction.

Edit:
Apparently they got the problem fixed so the newest installment is now available on Fanficiton.net too! The link is posted below. Enjoy!

Title: If Only in Our Dreams
Summary: Both of them wanted one thing--to be acknowledged. All either of them wanted was to be seen for who they are--not who they were, not what they were, but for who they are now. Both sought out ways to gain attention because in the end all they ever wanted was someone to understand--someone to actually care, someone to look and actually see. Both pretended they were ok, even if they were dying on the inside--all it took was a single subconscious wish that would allow two lonely, kindred souls to meet and connect---If only in their dreams.
Parings: Naruto/Kagome
Rating: Teen I guess.
