WANTED
The Thieves' Paradise.





The pleasure of the lifestyle, the careful selection of those who work with you, the art of seducing the riches out of the unwary and those who don't deserve them.  The paradise of thieves is the haven where most people can only dream to tread.  For some, a fortunate opening is offered.  The training is hard and the masters are stiff in their requirements.  To meet up to them, you will be forced to be quite special.  Or a Xander.

Through it all, life must go on and the future must be planned for, including the next generation of thieves and thier special training in the rituals and ways of the true thief.  This series crosses many years.  Eventually even Lupin has to make plans for the generation after his, and even Jigen has to find someone to teach.  Needless to say, this is an AU series!  Also, this is a crossover series as well, Lupin the Third and Buffy mostly, with warnings for any other accidental crossings.

See how a Xander can change the meaning of everything and add excitment that the group had been missing for a while.  It's bad when you get bored.  You have to do odd things and then sometimes things must move forward.  No matter how strange they seem.

Please read the series in order, the precursors have a bit of information you'll need.  Generally rated R for some swearing.  Any NC-17 parts are marked.
