Author's Note: I do not own Power Rangers Time Force, Power Rangers Wild Force, or their characters. This is set after both series. Find Our Way Home Taylor made a face at the reflection in her mirror. She was not a fan of fancy parties in general, and this Christmas party was not one she really wanted to attend. However, she knew she had been lucky to get back into the Air Force with as little trouble as she had, and if she wanted to keep her head down and out of trouble, she had to go to the base Christmas party for officers. She pulled on her coat and headed out the door. This was the last thing she had to do before she could go on leave

Author's note: I do not own Bleach or its characters. Kiss Me Shunsui was beginning to worry. Nanao had been withdrawing more and more lately, and unfortunately, he could guess the cause. He just didn't entirely know what to do about it. He could pinpoint the start of her behavior to the return of the Vizards to the Seireitei. And Shunsui could guess what was behind it. Or at least part of what was behind it. Nanao was worried about being replaced. Only she wouldn't call it that because in her eyes she was the one who was a replacement. She felt that her position as Lieutenant of the Eighth Division rightfully belonged to Lisa. And his Nan

Author's note: I do not own Fullmetal Alchemist or its characters. I know there's technically not a Valentine's Day in the FMA universe, but I couldn't help myself. This is AU. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------                                                   Game of Love “How did we get talked into this again?” Riza sighed and finished pinning her hair up. “Our friends wouldn’t take no for an answer. Apparently, it’s some sort of crime not to have a date for Valentine’s Day.” Gracia frowned in the mirror before reaching over to

Author's note: I realize that technically there isn't a Christmas holiday in Amestris, but I couldn't help myself. This is AU. I do not own Fullmetal Alchemist or its characters. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------                                  I’ll Be Home For Christmas Her hand swatted at the clock radio on her nightstand, trying to silence it. Riza snuggled deeper into her covers. She did not want to get up. Not only was it cold outside her covers, but today of all days she really didn’t want to face being alone. Normally, it didn’t bother her that

Author's note: I don't own Gundam Wing or its characters. This is set after Endless Waltz. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You and Me Noin collapsed onto her bed with a sigh. Finally a day off. She couldn't remember the last time both she and Zechs had a day off at the same time. The past month had been insane. As much as she felt that Preventers were needed and important, Noin hadn't intended to devote her every spare minute to them. Closing her eyes, she let her mind go blank. It was so nice not to have to think for awhile. The bed dipped as Zechs sat down beside her. A gentle hand ran th

Author's note: I do not own Fullmetal Alchemist or its characters. This is for the 30 Kisses challenge using list epsilon. This hopefully will be AU and is set in the future. Mention of character deaths. Theme 22: Fine Lines. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------                                                       The Final Test Elysia nervously fussed with her earrings. She was worried about today. There was a lot riding on the next hour or so. Her boyfriend of the past five years had asked her to marry him, and Elysia had said yes. But there was still one subject they hadn't talked about. Fin

Author's note: I do not own Final Fantasy VII or its characters. This is set after Advent Children. Heart's Desire Elena was utterly exhausted. She reached for the stapler with a sigh. At least she would be able to call it a night as soon as she got this report finished up. It had been a long day and an even longer week. And while she was looking forward to the weekend, Elena did not hold on to much hope that it wouldn't be interrupted by some sort of emergency or another. That would be perfectly in keeping with the way the week had been. She left out a sigh of relief as she turned in her report to Tseng's box. Gathering up her coat, Elena

Author's note: I do not own Final Fantasy VIII or its characters. This is AU and set in Regency England. Hearts on Fire She wanted to scream in frustration. Instead, Quistis mustered a smile and took the man's arm. She just had to survive twenty more minutes of this, and then she could claim a headache and go home. All she wanted to was to get out of here. This party was not her idea of fun, and with both Rinoa and Selphie recently engaged, Quistis had suddenly become the focus of the London marriage market. In some ways, that wasn't surprising. At eighteen, Quistis had already inherited both her title and quite a sum of money. The young Co

Author's Note: I do not own Bleach or its characters. This is AU and in honor of Shunsui's birthday. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Starry Night Shunsui was unaccountably nervous. Jyuushiro would tease him to no end if he knew about this. Which he didn't. In fact, Shunsui hadn't mentioned either tonight's date or his chance meeting with one of his favorite authors a few days ago. Nanao Ise wasn't at all what he'd been expecting. Of course, he hadn't expected the young woman he'd spotted in the bus shelter to be one of his favorite authors either. He'd just meant to be a good Samaritan and m

Author's note: I do not own Bleach or its characters. This is AU and set in Japan. This set after Love Song, Winter Song, New Song, Sweet Song, and Heart Song. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Play Song Nanao smiled as she shaped the onigiri she was about to grill. It was a favorite snack of those gathered in the living room, and they would be wanting food fairly soon. She wasn't sure how her home had gotten designated as the practice space, but she didn't mind too much. Besides, it did make it easier to keep track of the children. Even in the kitchen, Nanao could hear the six of them. They h

Author's note: I do not own Bleach or its characters. This is AU. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------                                            His Lady Fair Shunsui Kyoraku first met his princess when she was five. Oh, he had seen her Royal Highness Crown Princess Nanao before, but they had never really been introduced. He had just taken up the position as hereditary royal champion, and unfortunately, the Kyoraku family wasn’t exactly in the King’s good graces. It was mostly his father’s fault. The royal champion was to protect the monarch from all dan

Author's note: I do not own Hellsing or its characters. This is slightly AU. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A Baby Just Like You Integra carefully settled into one of the armchairs facing the Christmas tree, trying not to wake the child in her arms. Avery Reina Hellsing was only a few months old, but it was already clear that she was turning out to be a rather nocturnal child. Not that this was surprising given both the hours her mother work and just who her father was. There were still times when Integra wondered what on earth she had been thinking when she let Alucard get her pregnant, bu

Author's note: I do not own Hellsing or its characters. This is AU. This is for the 30 Kisses challenge using list theta. Theme 18: Invisible. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- His Lady and His Master Integra ran. She didn't dare stop. Not with her uncle trying to kill her. Her father had barely been dead a few hours, and now she was running for her life. The girl had the feeling that if it weren't for the adrenaline, she might be close to having hysterics. She had made it to the basement, following her father's advice. Now if only she knew what she was looking for. Coming to the door at the e

Author's note: I do not own Detective Conan or its characters. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- No More Blue Christmas' The snowy weather did nothing to really improve Ran's mood. Tomorrow was Christmas, and Shinichi was still no where to be found. She always missed him, but given that tomorrow was a major romantic holiday, she was missing him a little more than usual. Not that she was actually dating Shinichi at this point, but still, they did typically exchange Christmas presents. Ran had even picked something out for him again this year even though she knew it was unlikely that she'd see h

Author's note: I do not own Detective Conan, Magic Kaitou, or their characters. The children are all my own inventions. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------                               Kiss It Better – Shinichi and Yoshie “Where was that blasted file?” Shinichi Kudo was on his hands and knees searching for a case file under his desk. It wouldn’t have normally been under his desk, but his four year old son, Conan, had decided to play detective yesterday while he was out, and as a result, he desk was now in a state of extreme disorder. “There i

Author's note: I do not own Trinity Blood or its characters. This is set after the anime. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Keep Me Safe and Hold Me Tight Abel was startled to see movement in the foyer of the AX's offices. It was late at night, or early in the morning depending on your point of view, and everyone should have been in bed. It was Christmas Eve for one thing, and Abel knew that everyone has exhausted after this latest fiasco. Earlier today, several vampires had escaped the Inquisition's prison and had taken Cardinal Sforza hostage. It had taken over twelve hours and in the end Ab

Author's note: I do not own Trinity Blood or its characters. This is set about three years after the end of the anime and is a prequel to The Wedding of the Century. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Diplomatic Duties Caterina sighed and curled up in the window seat of her state room. She was thankful that she had a room to herself for this journey. It was likely to be the only place she could get any peace. As important as this trip was, it was also a headache. She was leading a group of Vatican officials to the capitol of the Empire in order to open peace treaty negotiations. The party consi

Author's note: I don't own Naruto or its characters. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Toads and Princes Jiraiya sighed and decided to wait on the task of dragging his student away from his ramen and Hinata Hyuuga. The girl had actually gotten up the courage to personally hand Naruto the chocolates she had made for him, and they really were rather sweet together. Naruto was still oblivious about how much the girl liked him, but at least he seemed to realize why she kept hanging around him now. It was Valentine's Day, and romance was in the air. As was heartbreak, pain, suffering, humiliation,

Author's note: I don't own Sailor Moon or its characters. This is slightly AU. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sweet Singing in the Choir Minako sighed as she wrapped her scarf tightly around her neck. Cambridge was cold and windy, and Minako was miserable. England was in the grip on unexpected severe winter weather, and she was stuck here for Christmas and New Year's. The seventeen year old would have much preferred to be back in Japan with her friends for the holidays, but her parents and her agent had accepted a job offer here in England for her, and she was stuck. The minor role on a Bri

Author's note: I do not own Vampire Knight or its characters. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- No Christmas Without You Juuri let out a sigh as she gazed out the classroom window. All of her classmates were in a tizzy over the up coming holiday. Christmas was of little interest to vampires. They had their own holidays. Still, since she was currently living in the midst of humans, she would have to endure. The girls in her class chatted about the dates they had planned and the presents they were giving or hoped to receive. Juuri stared out the window. Her Christmas would be spent with Haruka,

Author's note: I do not own W Juliet or its characters. This is set after the manga. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What Sweeter Music Akane walked hand in hand through the snow with Yuto. The two of them had spent a quiet evening out together. It was Christmas after all. Neither of them was really into big displays of affection or fancy, elaborate dates. So, it had been a dinner at a nice little restaurant and then a walk through a snowy garden. Now they were both taking their time as they headed for home. Neither of them really was ready to part company just yet. Akane let out a content s

Author's note: I do not own CSI: NY or its characters. This is set some time between Slight Out of Hand and Snow Day. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------                                               Bar Call The call came at 3:13 a.m. Mac was just finishing up some paperwork. He’d been called to bars to pick up his people before. However, this was the first time he’d encountered both his best friend and his girl friend drunk at the same time. The bartender had clearly been reluctant to be the one to evict the pair, probably due to Stella’s badge and gun
