So, now you've read Volume 4.  :thumbsup: What do you think? Loaded to the gills with information? Confusing? Just plain awesome?
You can share all your opinions in just a minute. But first, how about a little preview of Volume 5?  :o

WHAT TO EXPECT IN VOLUME 5

-We will meet 3-4 new characters
-At least one person will die
-At least one person will be badly injured
-There'll be A lot of action
-(and some romance too  *.* )

And lastly, expect...WATER. Lots of water.

Cryptic enough for ya?  ;)

~*Mara*~ = ^.^ =

I didn't get to read more than a few lines (my dad kicked me off) but that Volume 5 thing is killing me. AT LEAST ONE PERSON WILL DIE?!?!? oh, Future Carl. Right. that's fine with me. (I don't even remember Future Carl OR Sheen coming into the story at all!) as for the badly injured, my bets are 30% DJ, 30% FS, 30% Aurora, and 10% April.

0o0o, romance is good too :wub: but the new characters will only confuse me more :) KEEP IT UP!

Edit: When did that picture of Chapter 27 get there?

You're right. Neither Future Carl NOR Future Sheen have come into the story...YET. Remember those 3-4 new characters I was talking about? ;)

Interesting bets. We'll see if you're right ^_^

And oh, I just added the chapter 27 illustration a few minutes ago.

Okay, let me say first off that Volume 4 was BEYOND ama-za-zing! Second off: I really dislike you at this point in my life for leaving me where you did. D:

Mara. You love to torture people. Period.

I really want to guess who's going to die, but I'm afraid that I'll be wrong and I don't want to be humiliated if I sound like a n00b in front of you. DX

Like Krista, I will start off by proclaiming my profound love and hatred for your story. --love cause of standard reasons and HATE BECAUSE OF THEM DARNED CLIFF HANGERS--

Anywaiz, I can't shake the horrible feeling that Future Sheen is gonna die, for some weird foreshadowing act by Mara, which means he's gonna try and save Libby (er, maybe the team?) and die in the process. THAT RUSSIAN WHATEVER AURORA SAID DOES NOT HELP MY MENTAL HEALTH ABOUT SHEEN EITHER. =(!!! I'll have you know I'd be emo for a long time if you did that. --no reason to live--

Oh boy. Romance. x_x
Well, I guess every story deserves it. And TOSOT is no ordinary story, I'll have you know.

Ookay, I'm through Chapter 27. A couple of things. 1. FIANCEE!?! 2. Since when is divvied a word? (I even looked it up!) 2. I FOUND A TYPO! Beautiful G says "There’s to way we’re postponing it again." it's no, not to. sweet, I found a typo! ... oh, ahem, sorry.

Chapter 28: OMTG, catfight!! Aurora ROCKS. I love this green fire thing, like Shego! Nav is hilarious... punch in the stomach LOL...

Chapter 29: Oh... my... gosh. that was so sad! I almost cried, honestly! I had tears in my eyes... and about the death, I'm not so sure it's Future Carl anymore, I'm starting to think you might be evil enough to sacrifice April or maybe even Aurora to save everybody--but not Future Libby. If you kill off Future Libby I'll... well, I don't know, I'll do something bad, like jump off Niagra Falls. Okay, kidding. But I will be MAD. anyway, that was so fabulous! Aurora has really become a fabulous character, and Jaya has gone fron funny, sort of likeable character to the evil version of Ms. Fowl =D

Keep it up Mara! I luv this fic!

0o0o0o0h, the Carl and Sheen thing makes so much more sense now! But how come everyone's been saying how hot Future Sheen is and everything? GWEN... and where are pix of DJ? --so out of loop-- ok, g'night!

to the Chapter 27 illustration: oh.

-We will meet 3-4 new characters
-At least one person will die (no, NOT Future Carl - I'm not that predictable)
-At least one person will be badly injured
-There'll be A lot of action
-(and some romance too  *.* )

And lastly, expect...WATER. Lots of water.

*More characters! YAY! *random mood*
*I have an idea. Look down for it.
*Hmmm...
*A lot of action? Well, I'm not that surprised...:P
*Oooh, maybe DJ/A or FS/FL?
*Water? That will be interesting!

As for who's going to die, I think it might be Nav. Why?

Well, Mara once said she was attached to the person who will die. She said that Nav was awesome. Also, in Volume 3, Tuyen said this to April:

You will soon lose something that is very dear to you, but you must not allow this loss to destroy you.


Wouldn't it be sad if your fiancée died?

If that were true, then Mara is truly a mini-JKR. seriously. Check POA, and then read OOTP again. Of HP, I mean.

Thanks for zhe replies everyone! And Krista, I SWEAR SWEAR SWEAR on my writer's honor not to laugh at your prediction, as long as your prediction isn't Future Carl, since I clearly stated that I wouldn't be killing him off.

Now for some responses.

GWEN:

Poor Gwen. I've disturbed her mental health. B) Volume 5 is going to disturb everyone's mental health, though, so you're not alone. :thumbsup:
Good GAWD, an emo Gwen? Now there's a scary picture. :ph43r:
And don't worry about the romance. It's not excessive, and there's not that much J/C. The romance is purely for my own enjoyment. *.*

Divvied has been a word for a long time. It's like divided, but in slang. At any rate, spellchecker likes it ;)
Ya, I found that typo too :grr: , and fixed it :thumbsup: .
Wow, I almost made you cry too? Well, if it's any consolation I also made Aurora AND myself cry, so don't feel bad. And Jaya? An evil version of Ms. Fowl? BAHAHAHA! Jaya's used to getting her own way and having absolute control over the council. I don't think she much likes Aurora either ;) But ya, all around, you kind of respect her, but she's also kind of a beeotch. :lol:

Okay, now I feel stupid.

Yeah, I thought you misspelled divided, that's why I checked --super nerd--

Ya, I found that typo too  , and fixed it  .


Gotcha. :music:

Wow, I almost made you cry too? Well, if it's any consolation I also made Aurora AND myself cry, so don't feel bad.


I don't feel bad. That was one of the single solitary best chapters I've ever read. BTW. Do you read A Series of Unfortunate Events? Cuz that last chapter was very Lemony Snicket.

And Jaya? An evil version of Ms. Fowl? BAHAHAHA! Jaya's used to getting her own way and having absolute control over the council. I don't think she much likes Aurora either  But ya, all around, you kind of respect her, but she's also kind of a beeotch.


Yeah, the Ms. Fowl thing just popped randomly into my head, but now that I think about it Jaya does remind me of her in HtSaS, when all the teachers come back--"MY PIERCING TEACHER'S EYE!!" and beeotch is is. :thumbsup:

Don't feel stupid! You made your guess before I officially stated that Future Carl would not be killed off.

Nope, I've never read A Series of Unfortunate Events. The books always sounded interesting, though.

Haha, too many years of being in authority does that to you. It gives you the piercing eye. ;)

I rly enjoyed Volume 4 a lot thumbs up for that :thumbsup: . I thought Nav was a pretty cool and funny character btw too. Regarding Volume 5 and the death thing my prediction would be either Lee or Nav but i could very well be wrong about that. Keep up the good work! :D

Just finished chap. 27. Very good. My brief attention span is having a hard time keeping up with the new characters. That's my bad, though. One small thing caught my eye:

FUTURE LIBBY: How did you…?

**Her face suddenly pales, and her glance shoots down to her left ring finger. She holds out her hand pleadingly**

Um, is that even possible?
