* High above the floor of the False Sereni-Tree’s common room, lights shine to illuminate the darkness. A shrunken copy of the General Lee flies out of the hatch to the hanger bay, and begins to drift downward, growing as it descends. By the time it crunches the pool table flat, the False General Lee is full sized. Its hatch opens, filling the common room with light. River-clone comes out, skipping playfully. *

* She comes upon the unconscious form of ThatWeirdGirl, on the floor. River-clone bends at the waist, her long dark hair dangling downward, to whisper in ThatWeirdGirl’s ear. *

Sometimes, pilots are weird. Your Admiral is calling you, from up there on the balcony. Or maybe you’d rather dance…

* As PsychicRiver moves in for a masterful patented lip-lock, River-clone grabs a nearby wandering kissie, jams it in PsychicRiver’s face, and jumps back. She pulls out a camera to take a shot of the resulting display of affection from the creature. PsychicRiver sputters in surprise. Then, the kissie starts licking Spam juice off PR’s fingers. *

River-clone: You are SO photogenic!

(Oh my god, LOL!)

*PR's face lights up at the offer of a kiss. He closes his eyes and puckers up, but his face twist in surprise when the River clone launches the kissie at him. It does its thing, and then bounces off, leaving PR shocked. He turns to the River clone.*

Hey, thanks.

*PR then shakes his ead with shock as he walks away and dives into battle, helping his comrades*

*He ends up back to back with Zoe Clone 1 up on the balcony.*

We need to get out of here!

Zoe Clone 1: Things always get a little more complicated, don't they sir?

Uh...yeah, especially whens there's just the faintest aroma of plot in the air.

*PR looks down below and sees some brooms leaning against a crate. He extends a hand to them and three of them wobble and then fly up to his hands.*

*He flicks the switches on two of them and releases them and they help him fight off....whoever it was hes fighting off. He uses the 3rd broom as a quarterstaff to protect himself.*

*THWACK!*

Aha! We'll soon clean you up!!


PsychicRiver

"Two by two, hands of blue."
"We'll take care of each other. I'll knit!"

Summer Glau to me - "You are so photogenic."

That's big!

Nothing to contribute, just had to let PR know I laughed PepsimIlk out of my nose when I read that.

It's good to be back.

And yes Serenity...spoilers are the devil. Although that popcorn thing does sounds like fun doesn't it?

I think it's time we get out of here! MG, Jake7, can you help me get Mai onto the General Lee ? And then I guess I have to go deal with my evil side.

**jake7 helps CallMeSerenity and MG drag Mai on to the General Lee**

I wish I knew where my evil side was! I think she's still loose on the SereniTREE.

I'm not sure where she went after her failed attempt to seduce Static...

**jake7 finds a place to hang on in preparation for liftoff.**

*** Sheesh, Grey! When Superman got that powerful, they had to invent kryptonite! ***



* After landing the False General Lee in the False Serei-Tree’s Common Room, River-clone talks briefly to the unconscious ThatWeirdGirl, then skips away happily. Folks lose track of her in the darkness and confusion. Nugget the meteor troll follows River-clone, accompanied by a couple of kissies he had befriended. *

* Meanwhile, Bride5 and others are secure in the shrunken shuttle Admiral Nelson, which is parked on the upper balcony of the False Sereni-Tree. Bride5 sits down at the pilot controls, straps herself in, and starts pushing buttons randomly. *

I saw TheRealMe pilot this thing. How tough could it be?

* Bride5 inadvertently deactivates the shrinking tech, and the Admiral Nelson starts to expand to its normal size. As it grows, it bursts through the balcony’s railing and topples down two floors into the game arcade area of the False Sereni-Tree’s Common Room, smashing several video games and crushing hundreds of kissies. It narrowly misses smashing into the False General Lee, which is parked nearby. *

Oooops.

* Bride5 hangs upside-down in the Admiral Nelson's pilot seat, her long black hair dangling down. She keys the shuttle’s com-link. *

Uh, hey, can we get a couple of qualified pilots for these shuttles?

Jazaf was watching the battle below intensely when the ship pitched suddenly. The motion threw him down his hole and towards the common room floor. 'Aw, crud.' was all he managed to say before he landed on some spam and dead kissies.
Then, unexpectedly the light went out. 'What in the nine sphere's of hell?'

Jazaf stood and felt his way around when a door opened and illuminated the room. River-clone skips out.

He watches as a few kissies and a very large and freaky looking beast follow her. Jazaf decided not to ask any questions and went through the door.

'Looks like another shuttle. Guess I'l wait around til the pilot returns.' Jazaf finds himself a seat.

*Serenity dodges kissies, mass hysteria and falling debris on her way to her EvilClone, who is still lying unconscious on the floor. Serenity brushes off the swarm of kissies covering ESC and rolls her over onto her back.*

she thinks: This is soooo weird. I'm looking at myself...only evil. Do I really look like that in that shirt? Note to self: never wear that again! Ugh.

Okay, onto business.

*She pulls out one of her katanas and, grimacing, runs the edge across her palm. It begins to bleed. Then, she picks up a limp hand of ESC and does the same. She grabs ESC's bloody hand in hers. At that moment, ESC wakes with a shriek. She tries to pull away, but Serenity holds on as a fiery wind kicks up around them, lifting them off the ground. They rise, spinning faster and faster, rising higher and higher, both screaming, their voices rising with them as light and wind swirl around them.

And just as suddenly as it began, it ends.

Serenity falls to the floor, alone. She lays there, unmoving, breathing quickly, her wings covering her, her cut hand outstretched. There is a scar running across her palm. It seems to be glowing slightly. *

*Needleseye , ignores the groaning metal, creaking fractures, and the depleting oxygen, and calmly walks to engineering.
The darkness is enveloping.
Within it, Grey feels a familiar hand touch his shoulder. A vibrant energy in the touch compells him. He turns. Needleseye opens her arms to him and he is suddenly distracted by her slightly luminescent form. Grey reaches for her and she hums softly, grinning with that blood touched pouty lip.
Surprisingly, he feels short of breath, the gentle embrace becoming constricting. The tentacles around him bind him completely from movement. Grey looks at Needleseye, not quite glaringly. He sees she is barely humanoid, having shifted completely to a larger tentacled, seemingly elder form, blackened eyes, with an odd phosphorescent aura. She shows a finned appendage (which might have been a hand?) which holds a lovely white rose.
He senses her thought, "My little moth, we're going back to the ship."
Needleseye carries Grey through the shadows to the (Real)SereniTree.*
