        As dawn approached, fighters got up and stretched their bodies.  
Some in more hentai or ecchi ways than others.  This particular morning 
found Skyler Sands sitting in the cafeteria facing away from the window 
which only showed a grey barrier that prevented those who entered to leave.  
"those who entered from leaving", I think.

        Oddly, messages got out, though.  Washu had tried various methods of 
"Oddly, though, messages got out."

transmitting items out via sound and other forms of energy, but nothing 
would get through in it's original form.  Even the messages that were being 
"its"
        Thankfully, the Death Dome Field hadn't been affected by the giant 
grey barrier, so the tournament could be continue as usual.  However, 
"could continue"

security was even tighter as they wanted to make sure no one died for real.
        Skyler wasn't exactly keen on the idea of dying for good.  
Especially after one match had been won so... strangely.  As he munched on 
his breakfast, he pondered as to who might bother doing it.  It was unlikely 
that someone has just put up the barrier as a prank.  Someone, probably a 
"had just"
participant in the tournament who wanted to draw attention from something 
else they were doing.
Need a primary verb in this sentence.

        If they wanted to kill someone forever, they'd have to take down the 
special barrier that prevented permenant death from occuring.  But if they 
"permanent"

leave out the idea of the wizards, succubi or the psychos.  What with the 
chance to permenantly kill off any future resistance, they could, 
"permanently"
potentially, take over the whole multiverse.  Which meant that this might 
not be a single person.  It might even be a collaboration.
        Normally, Skyler didn't want to get involved in affairs like this, 
where finding the truth could spell death, but in this case, not doing 
something about it beforehand might spell death as well.  Plus he had woken 
up with a really nifty laptop on his chest with a post-it that read, "Swift 
and painful will this be.  Matters does it not.  Bring you only carry-on 
luggage shall you.  Extra servings of pudding shall dinner bring.  Juri hot 
for you is she."
Skyler:  Well, their intelligence is unreliable...but why send this to 
me?  After all, I still haven't figured out who or what the Ends of the 
Earth is, how a bunch of teenagers with swords are supposed to 
Revolutionize the World, or even how I won that last match.  Incredible 
coincidences are Utena's schtick, not mine.

 that had all of the information available on the situation 
so far, some of the data was encrypted 'for his eyes only'.  But, he still 
needed to know so much about the Death Dome Field.  How was it powered?  Did 
they perform maintenance on it between matches?  Could it be shut down?  How 
many safeties were there for the system?  How much WAS the special of the 
day?  The sign didn't say.  Skyler realized his eyes were wandering a tad 
too much.
        Then, Skyler saw someone who might be able to answer the questions 
he had.  He had been an integral person in the construction of the whole 
idea and thus, he should have some answers.
        A-kun entered and bought three 420 oz. Cokes at the counter.  Skyler 
wondered who the other two were for before he saw A-kun chug each and every 
one of the bottles himself.  He let out a belch which shook the counter.  
Skyler began to question whether or not he should bother to try and find 
anything out when A-kun turned around.
        "Um, Skyler Sands, right?" A-kun asked as he walked over to Skyler's 
table.
        "That's right." Skyler replied.
        "A-kun.  So, how've you been enjoying yourself?" A-kun asked.
        "Okay, I guess.  What with impending doom lurking out there." Skyler 
said, motioning to the barrier.
        "Oh, that's nothing.  I've seen worse.  And a lot more 
intimidating." A-kun said, grabbing a chair, turning it around and sitting 
down on it awkwardly.
        "Right." Skyler said, deadpanning.
        "Hey, ever seen some of my cooking?  Almost looks worse than one of 
Akane's concoctions." A-kun said.
        "Really?" Skyler inquired.
        "Yeah.  Not to mention Thar-er, another one of my friends is 
completely-" A-kun began.
        TharzZzDunN, the ever-changing, ever-unchanging, never-changing his 
socks, dimensional flux mack-truck, burst into flames as he leapt from the 
fire sprinklers and sang, "DID SOMEBODY SAY 'MARK BERGER'?!"
Skyler:  No.

        TharzZzDunN began screaming "NO!  No.  NOOOOOOOoOOWAMBA! DON'T WriTe 
dat!  Ayanami-Os are a registered trademark of Eyrie Production UnInc." 
before he vanished in a puff of marketing by SquareSoft for FF10.
        A-kun and Skyler were about to take their eyes off the spot where 
TharzZzDunN had vanished from when he appeared behind both of them and cried 
in a whiny Lucy Lawless voice, "RICKY!  I WANNA BE IN THE PORNOOOOOO-SHOW!"
        Skyler and A-kun yelped and spun around.  Skyler fainted into the 
lap of a startled Juri Arisugawa.  A-kun wondered for a moment where she had 
come from, but decided, like he did after all TharzZzDunN moments, to just 
forget it ever happened and left the room as quickly as possible as Juri, as 
a side-effect of being teleported around by TharzZzDunN, was overwhelmed by 
three moments of insatiable lust for Skyler before returning to her wits and 
dumping the unconscious boy to the ground.
        She stood up return to their single room (a "type-o" as Touga told 
them) 
Touga:  You've shared a room before, right?

to get out of the black leather spike heels, the g-string bikini 
bottom and black leather school jacket.
And to toss her cookies about even momentarily being attracted to Skyler...

  Skyler woke up and pondered if the 
last minute had been a dream only to catch a "panty" shot as Juri stepped 
over him.  He returned to blissful slumber with a stupid smile on his face 
and a trickle of blood running from his nose.
This reaction is probably due to the unusual clothing choice, as his and 
Juri's relationship is a little...less than romantic...

        Thankfully, Skyler didn't have a fight today or tomorrow or the 
following day or the next following day because it would take him that long 
to recover due to blood loss caused by TharzZzDunN's unwillful actions.
Hokay....



Bastion: <panicked> Oh dear God! I'm dead now! She's going to
kill me!

A-kun: <leans back in bean bag> Relax, you gave me Juri's
number, which I gave to ?????, don't worry.

Bastion: <confused> Juri? Juri never gave me her number.
	Wondered about that.


SKJAM!
