The return of your Fanfiction Mercenary. I'll do any fic, anytime, from any series. The ones below are only a few. I am admittedly a huge Final Fantasy fan, though there are a few that suck. My current ambition? To make at least one attempt at a tribute to my favorite pairing, Cloud and Aerith. And yes, punkz, it is spelled A-E-R-I-T-H. This pairing, I argue with the utmost certainty, is canon. And so far, except for one story, NO ONE HAS DONE IT RIGHT.

I shall change this. Watch me.

The Mercenary has returned from a fanfic hiatus, and has all-new content on the horizon. Please watch this space!

The Life of a Fanfiction Mercenary

Age 24.

Geez, what a day, huh? And to think, I'm still not even considered old yet. But hey, I got my first awesome birthday present: Barack Obama is now the president-elect. Considering that I voted for him, it's friggin' awesome. I absolutely loved his speech at the end too; it was realistic, but at the same time, optimistic. He knew what he was getting into when he started, and he has no illusions about how this is going to turn out.

But never mind that. The merc is one year older, and has a story to tell. And tons of 'em after that one. TO BATTLE!

SWAT Kats: Endgame T-Bone's Theme

Pantera - Cowboys From Hell ("Cowboys From Hell", 1990)

Under the lights where we stand tall
Nobody touches us at all
Showdown, shootout, spread fear within, without
We're gonna take what's ours to have
Spread the word throughout the land
They say the bad guys wear black
We're tagged and can't turn back

You see us comin'
And you all together run for cover
We're takin' over this town

Here we come reach for your gun
And you better listen well my friend, you see
It's been slow down below,
Aimed at you we're the cowboys from hell
Deed is done again, we've won
Ain't talking no tall tales friend
'Cause high noon, your doom
Comin' for you we're the cowboys from hell

Pillage the village, trash the scene
But better not take it out on me
'Cause a ghost town is found
Where your city used to be
So out of the darkness and into the light
Sparks fly everywhere in sight
From my double barrel, 12 gauge,
Can't lock me in your cage

You see us comin'
And you all together run for cover
We're takin' over this town

Here we come reach for your gun
And you better listen well my friend, you see
It's been slow down below,
Aimed at you we're the cowboys from hell
Deed is done again, we've won
Ain't talking no tall tales friend
'Cause high noon, your doom
Comin' for you we're the cowboys from hell
