This might have been done before. I can't remember. Slayers Next is the property of Hajime Kanzaki. --- Cross-Training A Slayers Fanfic By Kagami "Eeeeeyaaaaaah!!!!" "Lina!" Gourry shouted as he hammered on the stone door separating them. "Get back!" he shouted to the others, drawing the hilt of his sword. "Light, come forth!!" "Zelgadis-san, Lina-san doesn't usually scream like that. I wonder what's wrong?" Amelia asked worriedly. Zelgadis held up his hands to show his ignorance. "Well, if only she hadn't been so greedy. Running into the treasure chamber without checking for traps first was unbelievably...." He shook his head. "Yaaah!" Gourry shouted as he struck at the door, cleaving it into two. He lunged past the tumbling stone blocks... and ran headfirst into the second set of doors. Zelgadis dragged his unconscious form away as another horror-filled scream raised even his hackles. Then there was silence. "Lina!" He raised his hands and prepared a spell. "FIRE--" "Wait, Zelgadis-san! Look at that!" Amelia cried out, pointing towards the cracking doors. "Eeek!!" She ducked as the doors exploded outwards. "What the--?" Shoop. Shoop. Shoop. "Eh? Lina?!" Amelia gasped as she saw the redheaded sorceress emerge. A distinct pop signalled the appearance of Xelloss. The Trickster Priest looked upon the scene with amusement. "Oho, I didn't realize Lina knew that." Shoop. Shoop. Shoop. "What is that?" Zelgadis exclaimed. "Hmm? Why, Slug-fu, of course." --- Lina was just sooooo cute when she reacted to the giant slugs in Next that I couldn't resist writing this. :) --- ADDENDUM --- Jason Liao wrote: > > Lina was just sooooo cute when she reacted to the giant > > slugs in Next that I couldn't resist writing this. :) > > You could have tried harder... ^_^ Tooo... much... effort. :) > Of course, this begs an answer to the obvious question.

Gourry cried out in surprise as Lina slid towards her target. As Zelgadis collapsed to the floor, hands raised in a futile warding gesture, he found himself with a lapful of redhaired sorceress. "Um, Lina, could you not do that." Shoop. Shoop. Wriggle. "Lina-san! Zelgadis-san! How could you!" Amelia looked on the hideous scene with great, big tearful eyes. She sniffled. Wriggle. Wriggle. Purr. "Umm, this isn't really-- Hey, what do you think you're doing?!" Zelgadis shouted at Xelloss who had whipped out a drawing board and pencil. "Why, recording the scene for posterity." Xelloss smiled brightly and put pencil to paper. --- Phil - advocate of purring slugs. :)
