For anyone who hasn't yet read chapter 27, I should let you know that it will be the last chapter for the year.
I'm about to leave on a road trip for the hollidays that won't bring me home until after the end of the year.
I will have my laptop with me, so I could do some writing, however I doubt that I will have the time as 10 of the 15 days will be spent on the road travelling.
I will try to keep up with my mail and the message board, but don't count on it.
Have a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah and a Joyous New Year/Decade/Century too!
Hikaru
Sheesh!
You really ARE evil...
That was one heck of a cliffhanger. And you even have the audacity to keep us in suspense for weeks!
The horror, the horror!

A certain polar bear may just return to find a mob of angry villagers waggling pitchforks and Frankenstien rakes at his front door after this cliffhanger...

I just spent the last 4 days, every free moment I had, reading 67 chapters of IC to find no more story. Did you hear me? NO MORE STORY! Yep, I'm definitely going to loose it. Want to hurt something bad, preferably Hikaru, but he's not around. Just wait until you get back. If I don't see a nice long chapter 28 promptly after your return, you'll have a very angry leopard on your paws.
You really read them all in 4 days?
Sheesh...
You must read faster even than me.
And I cheat. I have Act I, the complete ZZtS and SOLtS stored as Tomeraider files on my PDA, so that I can read them wherever and whenever I want.
(The best spent 1.2MB ever :-)
Have you checked out www.antrofiction.com yet?
There's a couple of good stories there too...
(Can't have you rip off Hikaru's head just yet :-)
One of the stories there is a revised and updated edition of a story that you can find in the fanfiction discussion here...
And then there's the foxhole...
So, Please leave Hikaru intact...

Well, I wasn't planning on harming him unless he failed to post the nest chapter of IC soon after his return. Also, note that there are actually 73 chapters. My tired little brain couldn't even do simple math anymore last night. I've already read all of the current chapters for both ZZtS and SOLtS though I have not read Tabitha. I just don't like the idea of jumping into the future while the story in the past is still going on. One's mind can only handle so much. I've also read all of the existing chapters of Blue Horizon and A Fox's Tale. That's my life. I spend just about every free moment I have reading. I sacrifice sleep so that I can read. I stayed up until 6AM the past 4 days so that I could read. I think that I will take a break from reading for a while. Sit back, relax, go outside and see what it's like out there, and most importantly sleep. There are too many online stories! I'll never get to read them all. BTW, the blue in Blue Horizon doesn't stand for blue movies. Just thought I'd let ya know. It's a furry sci-fi story that is fairly good. That's all for now. Things to do, that don't include reading for a change.
Hey there. Was just checking my referrer page to see where furs were reaching my site. The last address brought me here. Would appear that I have you, Trygve to thank for that.
And Blue Leopard. Read em' all, have ya'? Glad to know I've got one more fan out here than I thought I did ;) Anyway, just really popped by to say hello and give a heya to Hikaru as well. Not sure if you're evil or not, but I will agree that you must be destroyed ;)
Well, on with my research. Bye!
I know the feeling Luv. I sat up for 2 days straight one weekend and read them all. I was pleasantly surprise to find out he updated every few days. Instead of every few weeks as with James or every month as with Chris.

Have no fear, the bear will post when the time comes near. I've written about half of the next chapter. It's going to be a long one compared to the standards so it should satisfy your need for a fix.
Just for the record, I've now driven from Houston to LA, up to Santa Rosa, on up to San Francisco (with a 2 nights spent with a beautiful llama) then back over to Albuquerque in only a weeks time.
Now I can kick back, let the truck rest and see about enjoying the holidays.
Take care.
Hikaru
I'm being as patient as I can, but I must tell you that it isn't easy. I still can't wait to read the next chapter. Hope you had an enjoyable time during the holidays Hikaru, and I really really hope that you post the next chapter soon. *tail sways anxiously behind him*
Hey Luci! I'm HOME!
Oey! It's been one long, strange trip. And to top it off, my after new years schedule was blown out of the water before I had even come back by those evil people I call customers who conspired to complicate my life.
The good thing is the fact that I DO have 2 completed chapters in the can from my trip that are LONG chapters. They still need to be edited & proofed, but are DONE. I should have the 1st one up Friday evening.
Unfortunately, I have promised to finish up Yin's #2 before I do any more work on IC, so that means that you'll probably have to wait until next Friday for the 2nd chapter in IC for this year.
On the other hand, you'll have a new Yin's IC chapter to read. It will be a long one as well as in keeping with the IC tradition, it will be a cliff hanger chapter that should drive folks nuts until Ch 3 comes out in Feb. [Yes, I am evil and must be destroyed.]
So keep an eye on the site Friday and you should see the new chapter going up some time that afternoon or evening.
Hikaru
Hola, amigo, welcome home. Having done the one-way drive more than once (2 times, Wichita, KS to LA; 1 time LA to Waco, TX), you've got my symapthies and admiration for doing it both ways.
Post when it's ready; I full-well know how things can slow you down.
Oh, for those of you who are wondering (at least, I hope some of you are), "From the Wings" Chapter 2, Part I, should be posted within the next couple weeks; it's going through the full editting cycle now.
cheers,
cateagle
So the only question I have is are you going to put up two chapters, one IC, one Yins(a rather injoyable story so far I must say). If not there may well be a mutiny. I haven't had an IC fix in a while now; and this werewolf is getting a bit jittery. I had to start writing my own stuff just to keep it in check. I will how ever say this; if you were a main stream(ie. book form) then I would be in really bad shape. I read the archives in about 10 hrs. Well see you later I need to go deal with my withdrawl symptoms.
There are 2 IC chapters done (both oversized).
Yins is 1/2 way done and I hope to have finished this weekend.
I'll post the 1st IC chapter Friday and the second one some time next week.
Don't worry... You'll get your fix of IC.
Hikaru

CYBERHORN THE DRAGON
Well, I can't get angry at you Cyberhorn, not after reading the newly posted chapter of IC. It seems your brother's writing wasn't hindered by the trip. The chapter was extremely enjoyable reading. Let's hear it, three cheers for Hikaru! Hip hip hooray! Hip hip hooray! Hip hip hooray!
Thanks for the great chapter Hikaru. I can't wait to read the other one you wrote while you were away.
BTW, now that would be a site, wouldn't it, a slack jawed dragon? LOL I love it. And it being Lakesh(oh sorry, Lakash) just adds frosting to the cake.
