~The Introduction~

Welcome one and all to the homepage of yours truly, SecretAgent99. All I have to say is read my stories, read my friends stories, and check out my forum 'A Bucketload of Reviews'. Au revoir, mes amis.

~Le Sigh~

I find it depressing that most people don't read homepages. They just scroll down to the bottom of the page to see what the person has written. But then again, I don't usually even read homepages. To the people who do decide to read my homepage, you guys rock. Please continue with what you were doing before you decided to read this...

Oh, and yes. To all of my friends in real life who I told to go to my homepage here and read my stories, yes, this is Lauren's FictionPress account. The Lauren with thin blonde hair and blue eyes and the quiet nature and also known as the (le cough) "over achiever". Yes, that Lauren. Teheeheehee. And it will make me feel much appreciated if you read my whole profile. You don't have to, but it would make me happy. :D

~SecretAgent99's Updates~

1/02/10: I uploaded the second installment of "The Unrequited Love Trilogy", titled "Bittersweet Shindig".

12/27/09: I redid the character bios and they are SO much better, and I uploaded another drabble for the NajikaZero drabble collection.

12/16/09: You may have noticed that I deleted my short series called "The Diary of a Dog Who's Smarter Than You Think". The reason why I did this is because I honestly didn't feel like continuing it. Since I deleted that, that also meant I had to take Duchess's stuff of the profile page. Sorry to anyone who liked it.

12/04/09: Um, I uploaded a my shortest and stupidest story ever, "Turkey Thief" two days ago for the Writing Club I am a part of at my highschool.

11/11/09: A silence falls over the internet realm as SA99 realizes that she still hasn't written anything new for the past several months. As she sits at her computer desk contemplating this on her school holiday in the middle of the week, she decides to edit her FictionPress profile because some things have changed and she has nothing better to do.

Writer's block sucks.

9/18/09: I've added a section for 'The Unrequited Love Trilogy'.

9/13/09: I have been on this site for over a year now and I have produced fourteen writings of some kind. At the moment, I don't have anything new for anything, because my freshman year of high school is already in full swing and all the homework is taking a lot out of me. And I'm still on writer's block. Yeah...

~About SecretAgent99~

The Great Mediator, The girl who claims she is Switzerland in fights between friends, The world's biggest procrastinator on anything that's not school homework related, The girl who loses drive and interest easily, The over achiever, The blonde, The smart one, The extremely paranoid one, The one who attempts to write humor but fails at it, The one who can be found at the black leather computer chair at the black computer desk in the scarcely decorated loft whenever school is not in session, The one who is stingy with her money, The one who cannot live without her iPod, The one who is an internet and paper back book worm, the one who gets bored easily.

Which is why she is typing this.

Yes.

My name is Lauren and I'm 15 years old. I'm a freshman in high school this 2009/2010 school year. I originally started writing for FanFiction, but then I realized that I have so many stories that I wanted to write with just my fan characters alone, so I had to put those stories up on FictionPress. I also acquired an account here because one of my real life friends (you know who you are lazycatz) asked if I could write a longer version of my fabulous short story 'Hats, Fashion Outbursts, and a man playing an Accordion'. I liked the idea, and since I wanted to make it longer I decided to get an account on here. Most of my stories will focus on my fan characters whose bios will be displayed below. I am creating some new fan characters at the moment, but they won't be appearing in any stories for a while. I still plan to write for FanFiction, but I find it much easier to write random stories only featuring my AMAZING (not really) fan characters instead of writing stories with characters from video games or books in them. I'm a Christian. Other than that I tend to get writers block a lot so I prefer to write short stories instead of long ones. My definition of 'short' is a one chapter 10,000 word or less document.

~Helpful Links for Writing~

Seventh Sanctum - http://www.seventhsanctum.com/

Wanted to come up with an evil minion name, but couldn't think of any? Go here. This has tons of generators that generate character descriptions, names of worlds, provinces, towns, monsters, etc. I love this website and the person who created it is totally awesome. You want to wow your English teacher when she reads you fantasy story that you were supposed to write with original names for countries and battle moves? Go here.

~About SecretAgent99's Writings~

I came to a realization at the end of the 2008 year. All my human characters so far in the NajikaZero series are Mary-Sues or close to being Mary-Sues. Agh! Well, I probably won't change them, because I've written too many stories with them in it already, and their Mary-Sueness hasn't shown up that much yet. And it seems it hasn't really bothered you guys since you haven't flamed me yet...so I have now put up short bios on my characters that have appeared so far so they don't seem so Mary-Sueish.

Now onto my writings.

I write because I love to write and I find it a creative outlet. I upload stories because I want people to see what I have written. If you don't like my stories or drabbles or poems because they are not your cup of tea, then please don't flame me or say 'it sucks' in the reviews. You could've just clicked the back button and gone on to another story. I love to daydream and I daydream constantly, playing out adventures in my head. The result of those adventures end up as stories similar to what I have daydreamed. (Most of the time, anyway.) If I daydream up something that I really like, I'm going to write it out on paper and make it even better. Most of my stories revolve around the two main fan characters that I have, Zero and Najika, along with their friends. I may include some Christian themes in the stories, so if you don't like them then go read something else or just put up with it if you like the rest of the story.

I get better at writing as I write more, as you can tell when you read my stories from the oldest published date to the newest published date. We all learn from our mistakes, and eventually become better authors. :)

~About Layzeecatz Productions~

Layzeecatz Productions are story ideas that were created by SecretAgent99's good friend Lori aka Layzeecatz. She gives her story ideas and SecretAgennt99 writes them out. Since they are Lori's ideas and such, SecretAgent99 will make a note at the beginning of each story if the story idea is not her own. Layzeecatz has an account here, and the link is below and also in my favorite authors section.

~Reviews~

I like to review a lot of stories that I read and find good or interesting. I would love it if you do the same to my stories. I do know that I will have a harder time getting reviews here because my short stories may end up getting lost in the sea of other stories that are 10 times better. So I don't need or want reviews, but they are loved and appreciated if you do decide to click that 'submit review' button. I don't like flames. Surely, people who flame have something better to do then put authors down. I prefer constructive criticism and 'good job' and 'I like it' and other stuff like that. I DO allow anonymous reviews, so if you are not a user and you like the story you have read and have decent English, please consider reviewing. Thanks.

~Using Fan characters~

If you would like to use one of my fan characters in one of your own stories, you need to ask me first. I would be honored if you find one of my characters decent or interesting enough to use in your writings, but I want to be asked first before you submit something or before you start writing it. I would want to know what you plan to do with them and what role they would play in the story. I would also want to know if you would pair them with one of your own fan characters. If I do allow you to use my fan characters, there MUST be a disclaimer stating that you don't own the character and that I do and that you have my permission to use my fan character(s). If you could put a link to my profile on your homepage, that would be great. Thanks.

~Fan character Pairings~

NajikaXZero - Ha, the day Najika shows true romantic feelings towards Zero is the day that the Earth and all the other planets start to rotate around the Sun in the opposite direction that they're rotating in now and at the same time pigs learn how to fly. Now Zero, on the other hand has a crush on Najika, and he is starting to show it through his actions, but Najika doesn't return the same feelings. Any stories with this pairing in it will usually be a one-shot. I will shock myself if ever write a one-shot with this pairing.

Well...I have shocked myself, considering I uploaded a one-shot with this pairing, and I like it and plan to write more. What has the world come to!?

~The NajikaZero Series~

The NajikaZero series is the series of stories that feature my first set of fan characters. When I started to officially write stories for fun, these were the characters I came up with. After taking a Mary Sue Litmus test, I was able to confirm that Najika (the main character) was in fact a borderline character or Mary Sue. (The results varied with several tests.) Despite this, I will keep Najika (and the rest of the characters) the way they are, as they are my first set of characters and I write stories with them in it for fun. In my future series that I am planning with a new entirely different set of characters and new environment, I will do my best to keep the characters out of the Mary Sue zone. (Well, at least for their environment anyway, as the next set of series will take place in a world where magic is the norm.) So, for now, please enjoy the NajikaZero series. The stories part of this series will be marked appropriately, and they will be numbered so you can see which are the newest and which are the oldest. The numbers have nothing to do with a timeline of events in the NajikaZero universe.

~Bios on Characters in the NajikaZero Series~

Najika Steel at this time is 17 years old and was born on May 22nd. She has deep blue eyes and straight, shoulder length platinum blonde hair. She is at 5'5". On her 10th birthday, she came into contact with an unknown power source that appeared from what seemed like a rip in another dimension. It may or may not have been destiny, but it led her to meeting Zero for the first time about a week later, who also had a similar experience. Three months after that, a classified section of the FBI got into contact with her and her family and said that they knew what had happened to her. It is still a mystery to how they knew about what happened and how they knew about her powers, but they ended up convincing her family to let them train her to be a spy, and she is now on standby until they need her. The government has classified her area of expertise as a Darkness and Fire Mage, along with advanced basic magic as a weaker strength. The government also supplied her with a handful of Pokémon, who surprisingly, aren't just creatures from a video game. Najika's genetic code was extremely mutated when she came into contact with the unknown power source, and she ended up getting the genes of the Black Panther, Grey Wolf, Horse, and Fire Dragon integrated into her DNA. Because of this, she can transform into various versions of the animals, aiding her when she is completing different missions for the FBI. Najika's relationship with Zero was that of a brother and sister until Zero realized his affections for her were deeper than what he thought. Unfortunately, Najika rejected Zero's affections, and now gets easily irritated with him when he tries to come onto her. It is not known if she just can't wrap her mind around the idea of her and Zero being more than "just friends", or if she is just in a deep state of denial. Najika currently lives in the United States, in the state of Pennsylvania.

Zero Coleman at this time is 18 years old and was born on December 28. He has bright blue eyes and short softly spiked white hair with electric blue highlights. He is at 5'10". Zero had a similar experience with an unknown power source 5 months before Najika did, on his 11th birthday. Just like with Najika, the FBI contacted him and his family two months after the incident. He, like Najika, is currently on standby until they need him. The government has classified his area of expertise as an Ice and Electricity Mage, along with advanced basic magic as a weaker strength. Zero's genetic code was not as badly mutated as Najika's when he came into contact with the unknown power source. Instead, his brown hair turned completely white, and only the genes of the Cougar were integrated into his DNA. Zero had a brotherly relationship with Najika until he turned 17, which is when he realized that he loved her more than a "sister". He confessed his feelings to Najika, but she ended up rejecting him. Not one to usually quit, Zero has continued to try to get Najika to fall in love with him, and he would do anything for her. Zero currently lives in the United States, in the state of Pennsylvania.

ATTENTION! Netty-chan214 has so kindly drawn a picture of Zero! I present you with this!:

http://pinkxjester.deviantart.com/art/Zero-Coleman-133913665

Scott Steel at this time is 14 years old and was born on May 30th. He has striking blue-green eyes, and short platinum blonde hair. He is currently at a height of 5'2". Scott has yet to come into contact with the unknown power source, so he remains a normal human. He is Najika's younger brother. Scott is exceptionally smart, and he likes to work on cars. As a bargain for keeping quiet about Najika's and Zero's powers, the FBI gave him several Pokémon. There have been a few instances where Scott accompanied Najika or Zero on their missions, usually to give them the help and items they needed. He enjoys taking lessons in mixed martial arts and in the art of wielding a sword, and there are times when he asks Zero or Najika to be his opponent. Scott feels bad for Zero since his sister does not love him, and has on several occasions tried to get him to date another girl. Unfortunately, all the attempts failed.

Moon, an animal of the Pokémon species, is a male Persian currently 3 years old. He tends to but into conversations, not caring whether he is rude. He is protective of Najika, and always objects when Najika goes off to do something dangerous. Most of the time, he stays at the Steel Manor, instead of going on excursions with Najika.

Icicle, an animal of the Pokémon species, is a female Jolteon currently 3 years old. She has a motherly attitude, and is usually reprimanding Moon for his rudeness. Her sweet, yet dominating attitude eventually gets Moon to behave. She sometimes shows a wild side though when she is with Najika on missions.

Zydeco, an animal of the Pokémon species, is a male Mightyena currently 2 years old. He is quite the lazy big oaf, lounging around in the sun on the Manor grounds. His carefree attitude usually throws people off, especially when in a split second he transforms into a viscous creature determined to protect his owner whenever danger arises.

Hastings, an animal of the Pokémon species, is a male Wobbuffet currently 6 years old. Najika made the mistake of instilling some of her powers upon him, and in turn made him her own 'Angel on her shoulder', albeit a very critical and snide one. With his ability to pop in and out of her thoughts along with shrinking himself and sitting on her shoulder, he is an annoyance that won't seem to shut up. He can speak English and French (which is very odd) and has a thing for high fashion (which is even stranger). Constantly complaining about Najika's sense of style, he is always burning her things he deems 'unfashionable' and replacing them with things that he thinks suit her much better. He is almost always wearing a red and white striped shirt, complete with a fake mustache and black beret. This 'French Wobbuffet' is always following her on her missions, being some kind of a second conscience to her. Unfortunately though, Najika doesn't appreciate this very much.

Sinbad, an animal of the Pokémon species, is a male Sableye currently 5 years old. Najika apparently didn't learn from her last mistake, and so instilled some of her powers on him. In a way, he is like Hastings in many aspects, except he is the 'Devil on Najika's shoulder', and he is clinically mentally insane. There have been many times when Sinbad has popped up and tried to convince Najika to do something bad, though there have been very few times that he has gotten his way. Upon receiving his powers, he acquired the ability to turn rocks into precious stones by simply putting them into his mouth. Scott and Najika have learned to exploit this power, using it to come up quick cash, since neither of them hold a true job that pays money. Sinbad prefers to stay at home and wreck havoc, creating diabolical plans that always seem to be foiled in one way or another. He always drags Scott into his plans against the boy's will, and threatens to hurt him if he doesn't help. Usually though, his plans always backfire.

~The Unrequited Love Trilogy~

The Unrequited Love Trilogy is my news series that I am creating. It came from the idea of creating a sequel to "I Hate Christmas Parties", and then creating a sequel to the sequel of "I Hate Christmas Parties". And I shall say this now before I continue:

The events of the Unrequited Love Trilogy will in no way affect the timeline and plot of the NajikaZero series. It is a separate series; therefore, it will be like the events in the trilogy never happened in the NajikaZero series' universe. Remember this please.

Why remember this? Because this will be a depressing series in which Zero's love for Najika is not requited. Yeah, I know that sounds odd since the first ten installments of the NajikaZero series is with Najika not returning Zero's affections, but you will know what I'm talking about when you read the first installment of this series. And, I will supply you with the names that I have come up with for the sequel and sequel to the sequel. As a side note, I have not started writing the sequel or sequel to the sequel yet. I only have the names and summaries.

First Installment: "I Hate Christmas Parties" -COMPLETE-

Second Installment: "Bittersweet Shindig" -COMPLETE-

Third Installment: "Facade"

There is a possibility that I will come up with a fourth story to the series, therefore turning this trilogy into a saga. But I won't know if I will be doing one until I complete the second and third stories first.

~Bios on Characters in the Unrequited Love Trilogy~

Basically the same as the bios in the NajikaZero series. Any new characters that will only appear in this series will be put up here later on.

~Amazing Stories That You Should Read~

A Little Night Music by srgeman

An AU Pokémon FanFiction

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5706480/1/A_Little_Night_Music

EDIT 1/31/10: RIP the original ALNM. FF deleted it along with the sequel, but srgeman has reuploaded it. Please continue to support it so it can get all its reviews back. Srgeman said on their profile that the final review count was 4655. Help get the review count back up to that number and beyond!

Link to Srgeman's FF Profile: http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1359416/srgeman

This story is the one that stands out to me, out of all the 270 plus stories I have favorited on my FanFiction account. I know some people that personally know me, SA99, will be surprised (and very shocked) that I have read such a story, when they start to read it themselves. But I ask you to look past the abundant language, gore, and other depressing stuff in it and traverse though all 130 chapters, all 387,355 words, and see that in the end, this story is one of the BEST stories I have ever read. Just give it a chance. (Though I wouldn't recommend this story to readers under 14.) I wish I could explain it more, but honestly, words cannot begin to describe how amazing this story is. Some of you may start to read it, and immediately get turned off by the aforementioned themes, and I won't blame you, but to those who do decide to read the whole story, I hope that you too, will think of it as a wonderful story. I have been with the story since around chapter 25, and hey, it has over 4, 500 reviews for a reason.

One of Those Hapless Darklings With Half a Heart by Nitlon

An Original Story

http://www.fictionpress.com/s/2537408/1/One_of_Those_Hapless_Darklings_With_Half_a_Heart

This story is the one that stands out to me the most out of my 40 plus stories I have favorited on this account. It is (to me, anyway) a spellbinding fantasy story, that deserves to get published. The characters and storyline seem very realistic (in as much of a way that a fantasy story can be), and it's a great read with not much to worry about.

~Le Gasp!~

OMG! You made it to the bottom of my page! Thank you to everyone who took the time to read the whole page or who took the time to read my fan character's bios! You guys rock!
