I went there about two years ago. Nice place. The fudge was incredible. And in my oppinion, dangerous. NEVER, EVER eat Mackinack Island fudge like you would chocolate. You will have stomachaches for HOURS. Trust me. Ugh, I don't feel so good...

Yeah, I noticed that too. I suppose it's possible, after all, he DOES have saiyan blood. Then again, did he ever really get mad? I think that even if Cell 'had' been in SS2, Gohan's true power still would have overwhelmed him. Let's say tha........Waitaminute. Cell never was a Super Saiyan. It's obvious. So riduculusly obvious. HIS EYES! When a person goes SS, thier eyes turn a greenish blue. Cell's eyes were normal to the very end! That, too me settles the issue. He gets the normal Saiyan power-up after death..Okay, here's my final thoughts: First, my view of how things were: SSGohan VS Perfect Cell: Perfect Cell had the advantage. He had the overall power level of a Super Saiyan with lots of experience, lots more than Gohan or Goku. Next Round: SS2 Gohan VS Perfect Cell: Gohan's inner strength broke the barrier, and raged to the surface. Gohan holds the Advantage. Next Round: SS2 Gohan VS Perfect Cell Empowered: Perfect Cell holds the Advantage. This is because he is at full health and Gohan is injured and drained of a sizable amount of his power. Final Round: SS2 Gohan Enlightened VS Perfect Cell Empowered, in Kamehameha Combat. Gohan obviously wins, through several factors; One: His True Maximum is far higher than Cell's, and I think that should they both fight at full power and perfect health, Perfect Cell Empowered'd be dead very easily. Second: Thanks to Goku's tutelage, Gohan realized that his powers were drained by his negative emotions (Or were they?), he could keep going to the end. Three: Vegeta's interference at the end both threw Cell's attention off enough so he could get through, but it also gave Gohan the 'focus; he needed to throw everything he had at Cell. The Lightning effect, SS2's signature trait, is not in actuallity caused by being SS2. It's caused because the user has SO much energy( which is accessed by SS2), that it begins to spark around him, getting rid of energy he can't control at that moment. In the following Example I will use two terms: Ki, the usual Inner Strength we all know and love, and Chi, External Strength that the Z warriors generally tap into in order to prolong thier Ki life. Ki is internal, and is relatively limited, though 'higher quality'. Chi is External, very easy to access, not as powerful. For example: Gohan, when he powers up, brings some of the Chi he has access to to his internal resivoir of Ki, and stores it up. When he powers up, his 'current maximum storage' level increases, up to his 'True Maximum Level', at which he cannot gain anymore untill he learns to harness it more. Sometimes, the amount of Chi/Ki that gathers around him exceeds his current maximum, and so is released around him in the form of the lightning. The REASON Cell had the lightning was because he had the overall power level of a SS2, but technically was NOT one. About Goku's tutelage: Was he right? What was draining his powers, the usage, or his doubt? I think it was REALLY the usage, BUT because Goku managed to bring Gohan's spirit up by saying it was his doubt, he managed to finish the job. Is Goku smart enough to think of that, focusing the blame on something else to pull his sone together?

I wish both of you... no make that all THREE of you, the best of luck in the times ahead. I'm affraid I can't offer much more than that; I know NOTHING about these sort of things. (I'm 15 and have yet to be interested in a girl)

Yes, I can most definitely say it has.

I have never gotten into a fight. And I am proud of that. And for future reference, If I were to get into a fight, untill I learn some basic self-defence from Akido lessons, I'd be high-tailing it in the opposite direction! I'm pretty good at moving fast too, though only for short distances. Then I get tired or I get the cramps.

Please calm down. I will talk to her and see if I can settle this peacefully. I trust Cera to give me a hearing about this. Please, be calm, and all will work out.

I thought they covered that.... Yosho was in a tricky position when he was on Jurai. Part of the populace dissagreed with him becoming ruler due to the fact he was not pure Juraian. This probably caused a lot of stress, and so when Ryoko came and attacked Jurai, he used that opportunity to leave Jurai, and get away from the pressure. If half the planet hated you and the other half loved you, you'd probably be pretty stressed out, too. As for his father, I have no clue. I doubt he is still alive; after all, if he was human, he'd have died long ago.

I am currently in the proccess of writting a story, maybe even a book that uses a sence of Christianity like that found in Neon Genesis Evangelion. That means huge differences between it and the 'normal' christian texts. An entirely different and dark viewpoint. For all I know this book could be blasphemy, but I don't care. I'm writing it, and there is no one in the world who can stop me from writing what may become my greatest work.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by MysticGohan [/i] [B]Like most of the "who's the most respected member" topics, I , again have proven to be not found on any of your list. But oh well.. Here are the people I think that are worthy: Sephiroth Well, he's probably the only one here that I actually like. Nice simple person.. Don't get me wrong, I like most of you people here. Ah well, have a good day guys! [/B][/QUOTE] Hey! I put you on my list! I hold you in high regard, Mystic Gohan. Don't put yourself down.

Ooookay, let's rephrase that. I would greatly appreciate it if you were to comment on my story; constructive criticism. That's the reason the story is here! If no one speaks up, I cannot improve, because I don't know if my writing is good or not. Thank you.

Okay, let me see. My old Alexander file had around 150 or so. G/S Expert was some 950. Lord Hyraken was 750 I think. Sensei Arekusu-Chan only got around 50. They may be off. 150+950+650+50= 1900 posts. Thank you for putting forth the time to do something like this. This is a big project, more than I'd expect from someone.

Here's the next part! *** I looked around my new surroundings. The room was large, with huge soft couched and elegant furniture. Lots of purple, too. "You like the room?" asked Xellos, smiling. "Why should I care! Take me home, Xellos! I'm useless to you anyway!" I yelled, angry. I had been kidnapped by Xellos! This was completely unbelieveable! "Useless? Hardly. You're here as my guest for a while. Oh, that's right..." Xellos maintained a thoughtful expression, tapping his finger. "I still don't know your name." "Arg! It's Alexander! Now, take me home! Oh, I really am not liking you!" I said, blazing with fury. What happened next was completely unexpected. I punched him on the nose. Xellos laughed, after healing his broken nose. Which probably wasn't really broken to begin with. "Really, you shouldn't go and attack your elders like that! It's not right!" *sizzle* "Anyway, this is your room, Alexander. You're here as my guest." Why won't he listen to me, dangit! Wait, a minute. This is Xellos. He does what he want's to. Reasoning won't help. I need to play along. "Fine, I'll stay here. Better than explaining the loss of the computer lab." Computers? What are those? "Great! Would you like some tea?" "Knowing you, no. I'd much rather have a Coke, but you don't have that." Coke? What is he talking about? "Oh, well. Now, Alex. Tell me about yourself." "Not happening until you tell me why you want me here." "Merely to find out how you knew so much when you are so young." Okay. How can I trick the trickster. A lie? Let's try it. "My world has many records of incidents that happened on other worlds." "Ah, ah, ah! No lying!" Dang. That won't work. Death to Mazoku! "I cannot explain it! The technology in this world is too primitive to show you!" "Really?" "Yes! You're still using swords and staves as weapons." "And so what do you use?" smirked Xellos, raising an eyebrow. "Guns! Bombs! We've made bombs that could level all of atlas city at once!" "So? Dragon Slave could do that. Giga Slave can destroy the WORLD." "Our world doesn't have magic! No one knows how to use it! We don't need it!" Xellos stood silently, looking thoughtfully at me while I continued to rant on about the differences between our worlds. By the end, even I could tell that Xellos was excited; the Mazoku equivalent of finding the cure for cancer, or so it seemed. Dismissing himself, Xellos left the room, leaving me to my thoughts. Who knows what was going to happen now? ********** "Yes, Zelas, you heard me right." "Xellos, that sounds utterly preposterous. Us Mazoku have lived for thousands of years and we haven't even dreamt of such things. For humans to think of such things...." "I realize it sounds far-fetched, but I think he's telling the truth. Let's look over the facts. One. There are no mazoku on their world. Their only competition came from other humans. Two. With no magic, they needed to expand technology far greater than normal. Three. It sounds ridiculus to us because we have magic, which is far easier to use. To humans without magic, it makes sence. Four. According to the boy, humans hold magic in the same regard as we do with their technology. Five...." "All right, Xellos, the point has been made. Why do you tell me this?" "This is where it gets interesting. The general mind-set of his world favors brains over brawn. School is reqired, and the highest levels of power are held by those who can sway others to do their bidding through words. The average adult, by the time they leave school, possesses far more knowledge than even people like Lina do." "Xellos, this is all very interesting, but get to the point." "I'm coming to that. You have heard of wizardry?" "Yes, I have. I think it was a method of spell casting that allowed the caster to use amounts of magic equivalent to their intelligence. It died out because the people with inborn magic didn't want people without it to have that power. Ah! I see now..." "Exactly. The humans from that world have great potential for wizardy, because of their intelligence. If they were to combine thier already incredible amounts of technology with wizardry..." "They would become the supreme race. Far greater than the Mazoku or the Ryuusoku." "Yes. Not only that, but they have many natural advantages. Thier location means that they are impossible to reach without magic, preventing invasions. This also means that they can conduct research with few problems." "We cannot allow that to happen. Their world must be destroyed!" "Yes, I agree, but I suggest we wait. It will take time for the magic to become widespread. That, and the number of magic users that actually are there are likely to be incredibly small. In the mean time, I have a proposal." "Let's hear it." "I suggest we make a copy of the boy. A very special copy." Xellos smiled, and opened his eyes. "We will make him one of us." ********** "Forgive my absence, young one. I had to go talk to my superior." Xellos had returned, walking in smiling. "Zelas Metalium, the Beastmaster." There he goes again, knowing everything. Just wait, young one, and you'll realize just how much you're missing! Xellos grinned even more. "Correct again, young one. I have come to tell you that Zelas is very interested in you, and wants to make a deal." My jaw dropped. Can life get any wierder? "A deal? With a Mazoku? Right..." "If you agree to join us, you will be given a position just below me in the Mazoku hierarchy, as well as be taught how to use magic." HOLY! I struggled to maintain my composure as I replied. "The c-catch? Knowing you there m-must be one." "It's rather simple. You will be copied as a Mazoku. I trust you know what that means?" "NO WAY! I will never become a Mazoku!" "Now, now, no need to jump to conclusions. You can take all the time you need to decide." With that, Xellos turned and walked out of the room, leaving a confused Alex behind. I collapsed on the nearby bed, drained. Become a mazoku and gain immense power, while serving Zelas, or.... what? Be killed? A possibility. Sigh. Huh? My gaze drifted to near the door. A large tome lay there, abandoned. "Xellos forgot a book... I wonder what it is?" Leaping off the bed, I snatched the book and opened it up. Belatedly, I remembered that many books could be magicaly trapped. After waiting a few minutes, and noting I was still in one piece, I began reading the book. "What the heck? 'ªjgi_bÓ'? Great, I can't even understand it!" Setting the book aside, I stared at the cover in annoyance. So much aggravation in one day...

This is one of my latest Fan-fictions. Unlike all others, I'm in it, but I'm trying not to suddenly appear as the great and all mighty warrior. I'll gain power, but not in the normal way. Now, on with Part 1 of the story! ***** It was a long, boring day. I sat near the back of the classroom in English, desperately trying to make sence of what the teacher was saying. "Sentence pattern number 23 goes as follows...." Ugh. I hate sentence patterns. Usefull, but dang boring, in any event. And hey, it's a great time for me to practice my drawing skills. By the end of class, I had a sheet of paper full of Xellos, Hijido, Ranma, and the funny guy from Fushigi Yugi who always has his eyes closed. After an excrutiatingly long 45 minutes, I burst out of English class, desperate for a breath of air not polluted with commas and exclamation points. Taking a few seconds to look over my scedule, I began to walk down the hall to my next class. Computer programing. Probably my favorite class, because it involves something I like to do. Then again, I love to draw, and boy do I ever hate Art class. BOOOORRRIINNGG. I arrived at the Computer Lab ahead of time, as usual for me. I opened to door to find myself in the middle of a disaster zone. "WHAT THE?!" The lab was in ruins! Computers strewn about, scorch marks everywhere, pieces of plastic and metal clashing with the dark floor. As I looked about, trying to make sence of all the mess, I realized there were voices coming from the other room, acompanied with the sounds of a fight. Now, usually I stay away from trouble makers, but concidering how they were in the middle of a fight, I supposed they would not have time to notice me. Squashing the sensible part of me and moving forward, I headed towards the back room. Nothing could have prepared me for the sight I saw. "What the heck?! XELLOS?! ZELGADIS?!" It was true. Two of my favorite anime characters, right in front of my eyes. I almost laughed when I realized how predictable the fight was. Xellos probably annoyed Zelgadis again, and so another fight broke out. Typical. Concidering they were in MY world, this was no typical fight. "It's just a Clair Bible, Zel. It's not like the cure was in it, you know." "DIE!! DIE!! RA-TILT!" "RA-TILT?!! OH, NO!" I ducked under a table just in time to dodge the wake of the blast. Even so, the force of the explosion blew the tabe against the wall, pinning me against the wall. This was getting out of hand. At this rate, the room'd be trashed in seconds, and I really didn't want to explain why the computer lab was trashed. I breathed a sigh of relief as they stopped. Glaring at each other. Well, Zelgadis was glaring, who knows if Xellos was or not. Pushing myself free from the wall, I walked up to the two and decided to scare the hell out of them. "Zelgadis. Xellos. What are you doing here." "None of your business! Xellos deserves whatever he.... Hey! How did you know my name?!" "Another person who can recognize me on sight? I feel so famous! Do you want my autograph?" "Not on your life, Mazoku. I know quite a bit about you. And Zel here as well." "So you know our names. So what." Zelgadis muttered. "Let's see how much I can remember. Zelgadis, Grandson of Rezo the red priest, a Chimera, Part Blue Demon, Part Golem. A Shamanist, knows and uses the Ra-tilt, strongest of Shamanistic attack spells. Searching for the cure to his curse. First used the Ra-tilt in Lina's presence against Shabraningdo. Died once. Can only be hurt by the sword of light...." "HOW THE HECK DID YOU KNOW ALL THAT?!" cried Zelgadis, mouth agape. "Not to be evil or anything but that's a secret." I smiled, wondering Xellos's reaction. As Zelgadis stood there stunned that he had been quoted "It's a secret." by two people in one day, Xellos laughed heartily. "Well, well, he seems to know you pretty well. And he even knows my quote! I'm so proud!" "Xellos, The Trickster Priest, also known as the Eternally Happy Fruitcake. General-Priest of the beastmaster Zelas Metalium. Over 1800 years old. Mazoku, only lesser than the five Mazoku Lords. Once had four gems used to empower his spells, sold to Lina due to her persistence. Likes Burning Clair Bibles..." It was Xellos's turn to stand there suprised. That kid a lot of information, powerful information. Well, well, it looks like this may have been a profitable trip after all! I must find out how he know all this! Zelgadis was equally stunned. Did he just call Xellos an eternally happy fruitcake? Zel grinned. "How do you know all this?" asked Zelgadis with a whisper. "I'm not telling you that. In any case..." "Oh, dear, look at the time, time to go home!" cried Xellos as he looked at an imaginary watch. There was a flash of light, and we were no longer in the school! "What?! Oh, NO! Take me home, right now, Xellos!" Xellos only smiled. "If you insist." And once again, there was the flash of light. I reappeared in a large room, filled with odds and ends. The blood drained from my face as I realized what happened. This was Xellos's house. Xellos had tricked me. I had the feeling this wasn't going to be the last time, either. *** Zelgadis was badly shaken. First the Clair bible he had found had been burned away by Xellos. Then Xellos had teleported them to god knows where, found a kid who seemingly knew all thier secrets, and now he was missing. Growling in anger at Xellos's constant pestering, he rushed back to the city at top blue demon speed. He had to tell Lina and the others about Xellos and the omnipotent kid. He had to. *** Lina sat down at one of the inn's tables, and begun to dig into the massive pile of food that had accumulated there. Gourry, Amelia, and Filia were, too munching away at their meals, though not nearly as fast. Suprisingly, it was Lina who spoke first. "I wuhner whar Ziildagis iis?" Or something like that. "Who knows? Ever since he left searching for that Clair Bible, I haven't heard a word." replied Gourry, digging into a bowl of pasta. "Why did Zel have to go alone? I could have helped him!" whined Amelia as she started on a new slice of pizza. "You know that Zelgadis wanted to be alone, Amelia. I know we could help him, but sometimes he really doesn't want to be helped." sighed Filia. "Still! We should have helped! I wish he'd come back!" "He will. You know he never stays away for long. Hey, what's all the racket out there?" questioned Lina as she stood up and looked out the window. "Zelgadis?!" It was him, running towards the inn at top speed, a blue and tan blur. It took only a second before Zelgadis was in the door, and panting, exausted next to the table. "Zelgadis! Are you all right?" cried Lina. As she looked at the panting Chimera, Lina began to feel twinges of worry. Zelgadis never moved that fast unless it was important. "Zel! What happened?" "Oy, Zel, you don't look all that well. You're turning blue." "He's always blue!" "Oh, that's right." "Big trouble...Xellos....Clair Bible burnt...weird kid...knows about us...gone.."panted Zel. "SLOW DOWN AND TELL US!" growled Lina. "I found the clair bible, Xellos showed up, burned it, teleported the two of us to god knows where, met this really weird kid. He knew my name, that I'm a chimera, that I was part blue demon and golem, that I was a shamanist... he knew too much. And then he started telling Xellos's history, and it was all correct. Xellos teleported us back to where the clair bible was, the kid freaked out, and Xellos teleported off with him." panted Zelgadis, "We have to find out more about that kid. He knows was too much. He knew I was Rezo's Grandson, for crying out loud!" There was silence for a minute as the assembled group digested the facts. "How'd that kid know all of that?" "I asked him that, but he just said, get this. 'Not to be evil or anything, but that's a secret.'" Zelgadis frowned at the last statement, annoyed. "Could it be one of Xellos's tricks?" pressed Filia. "It might be. The 'It's a secret' part kind of points that way." "We have to rescue him! In the name of justice, we will free the child from the vile Xellos's clutches!" Amelia struck a pose. *sweatdrop* "Rescue who? I'm afraid I missed that part." *thud* **** What do you think?

Excellent! It's wonderful to see people writing fan-fictions again! I wish you luck on all of your writings!

I don't think that there is any certain people that I [i]respect[/i] persay...I don't think anyone has yet gained that respect from me. There may be a few, such as Veggeto (aka Oblivion Unien), Zaku II, and RicoTranzrig...but then again, I don't necessarily respect them, more like hold them in high regards. I think it's the fact that I'm one of the older members, (though I know there's still quite a few older than myself) and I have a hard time respecting 13 year olds...[/color] [/B][/QUOTE] I agree, respect is a thing to be earned, through actions and words, but one should always start with some respect towards others. From there it changes depending on the person's actions and the your temperality. I am currently 15 years old. I find it mildly annoying that someone would look down on someone because of thier age, but I admit flat out I too do that at times. Though I don't really look down on age groups, rather maturity levels is what counts.

I am hurt that I wasn't put on any lists. Not really, though. I was gone, so I probably slipped your mind. While I admit there are a fairly large number of people who dislike me, and I dislike in turn, I'm sure I have some people here who respect me. No, I know it. Now, let's see who I can remember.... I hold these people in high regard, as well as a few others I forgot. They are cenerally the people I trust here. (Will2x is an exception.) Please forgive me, my memory is currently jammed with Geometry and Programming. It is not in any order. I respect any member on this board who has not gotten on by bad side. (And even a few who have.) Sephiroth, Kamakazi, Shinji, Zero-Sama, Renee, DragonballZman, Will2x (Respect thy enemy), Warlock, Dessert Shadow, Roxy89, Nerdsy, Treble, GinnyLyn, Cera, Adam, thimoc, Topaz, Mystic Gohan, Killermon, Angel_Saturn_Healer.

It is my opinion what Ryoko, though cool, is one of the most impossible people in the realm on anime. The Kunos come to mind when I think of her.

Okay, whether he actually ends up with Ryoko or not matters little to me. Ryoko's personality clashes with Tenchi's nearly every step of the way. Ayeka is easier to live with and to care for.... but not by much. Personally, I'd be saying this "Run, Tenchi! Run!" Then again, WHERE could he run to?

Boy, I hate Geometry class. Long, and they give massive assignments. What's more, I found a way in which it contradicts itself. For Example: All lines are made up of points. All points take up no space. Therefore, no matter how many points are in a line, it does not grow. No matter how many times you add 0 to 0, it never gets bigger. No matter how far you go on a line, you haven't moved a inch. So, whenever they say to "Find the measure of that Line segment/ray/line.", it's ALWAYS 0. It's always Zero and never Zero. What the heck is with this? The whole subject is contradicting itself!
