Author's Note: Any one who wants to play in this universe may do so with two exceptions: We ask that you give Queen Cindy and ourselves, Pirates Turner and Sparrow, proper credit for the creation of this AU and we require that you absolutely do not kill or greatly injure any of these characters, the latter being due to the fact that we do not want such a thing to come back and bite our sweet children. Yes, the beings who are mixed with the Seven to make this new breed of heroes, as well as the other characters, are very real and dear to our hearts. :-) They have all already been rescued from various dangers and perils in the world, and we do not wish to have to do so again nor would we ever wish such tragedy upon our loved ones. We have pictures of the kids used herein if any one would like to see.

"It must be done every month else the bugs worsen." Josiah smiled reassuringly, firelight reflecting in his green eyes. "This won't hurt a bit."

"There's no way being hit with that stuff ain't gonna hurt!" Buck cried, his fur standing on end.

Chris had watched the mice dance their way through the fire. His black tail swished, cutting through the air. If they could do it, so could he! Besides what was physical pain when his heart was constantly held in turmoil and Buck refused him freedom? "Hit me."

Josiah slapped his paw through the embers. Chris yowled as he was sprayed.
