I'm having difficulty with my hotmail client right now...:(
As that is a problem, I'm going to try something new(well, for me, anyways)
Also, I'm sick of waiting for hell&gone for this thing to pick up the last 16
units of mail.
As it is, I'm sending in chapter 2 of the story that I "found" C&C's for.
Here she is.

Chapter 1      confusion

     I guess getting shocked isn't normal for anyone, my head was still
ringing.
I decided to get some information before I panicked again.  I looked at the
guide. I realized my first question.  "How come I can understand you?"
     The guide looked puzzled, "you talking Japanese, I talking Japanese, why
shouldn't you understand me?"
     I frowned,"I'm not speaking Japanese, I'm speaking english." The guide
looked puzzled. "I don't knw how I got here... I was supposed to be in school
by
now." The guide is loooking at me like I'm crazy. "Okay, last thing I remember
before appearing here was getting ready for school." The guide nodded. "Then I
rushed out the door, into thin air. are you telling me that this is normal?"
The
guide nodded."How so?"
     The guide thought for a second, then responded, "You walk through magic
portal, not impossible.  You thinking about Jusenkyou while you getting ready
for school?" I nodded, "Good, then you one to open portal to begin wih. How old
you?"
     I thought, 'this guy's kooky, but I'll go along with it for now.' Out
loud,
I said, "I'm 18 years old, about to be 19 in two weeks."   A habit I have, when
I'm nervous, is to think of a large staff, appearing out of nothing.... imagine
my suprise when the guide looked at the staff as well.
     "Uh, sir? Please you put staff away, it focus magic too, too well, might
even open another portal if you not careful." I shrugged, then tried to imagine
the staff disappearing.
     The staff stayed put.
     "What's the harm in a single, small staff?" I asked.
     The guide, still looking nervous, "Staff focus magic, once, if not
careful,
will obliterate someone or something.  Please put staff away? I not want to be
obliterated."
     I shuddered, "Sorry, I don't know how to, I don't even know how I brought
it to be in the first place... I'm sorry." I was shivering, I didn't want to
obliterate anyone, no matter how infuriating.
     The guide seemed to see my problem, and mentioned, "Maybe you take staff,
open portal to somewhere else, say where someone you love is."
     "What if I don't know where that person is?"
     "That not problem, think of opening gate that facing person, never miss
that way."
     I thought,'who do I love? I don't know... Chris?  Nah, she's pretty, but
would never think of me like that.  I've thought about Ranma for a while....' I
started, the staff had disappeared! in it's place was a glowing purple dorway,
like the one I had come through before.
     "That very good sir, but remember, be very careful what you think from now
on, It might cause problems, or might even get burned out of you, which you may
or may not want. Bye sir!"
     I nodded and stepped through the doorway, into mass confusion.
