*flows into the sensation, floating on a warm, calm sea. The dichotomy within him blends back to a balance, less shapr relief and contrast. His blade, if it were ignited, could be seen fading into a bright red. He becomes Grey once more, returning to the World of Balance.*

"the kissies will keep us safe," he whispers.
~lissa, spwhore
*Just as Ath says this, dozens of kissies begin to gather around the pair. At first the kissies just jump around them excitedly, then as one they all begin to glow. The light gets brighter and brighter, until there is a blinding flash. Once the light fades, Lissa and Ath are nowhere to be seen. Unbeknownst to Lissa and Ath, the same thing happens to Ath's twin, Darth Ath.*
On the True Sereni-Tree:
*In the empty common room, there is a second flash as Lissa, Ath and Darth Ath appear. Darth Ath struggles to his knees, still reeling from the kissie assault, but Ath promptly punts him in the face. Ath scoops up DA's lightsaber, ignites it, and holds it to DA's throat.*
So, Evil me, how do I get you back into me? Is there a spell, or some kind of mental connection thing? I can see being in close proximity isn't working.
*A lone kissie jumps onto DA's hand and bites, drawing blood. It then hops over to Ath's hand and does the same.*
Ow! What'd you do that for? I made you!
*The kissie starts jumping back and forth from Da's hand to Ath's, obviously trying to tell him something. Finally taking the hint, Ath grabs DA's bleeding hand with his own. As the blood mixes, there's a mad rush of light and noise. After a few seconds, however, the noise stops and the light fades. Where once there were two Ath's, there is now one.*
Well, that was easy. Lissa-chocolate jacuzzi? Or do you want to take a nap?

Well, this just won’t do. I don’t like it all. I don’t. *soulevilclonetwg tries in vain to adjust the clunky metal choker tracking device thingy* Really, how am I supposed to lure unsuspecting men with this on?
*Soulevilclonetwg huffs and catwalks out of the infirmary, leaving SimonWho to catch up to her*
You know, good doctor, this plan of yours could work, but it won’t. twg is whole. I’m not her. I’m just an evil clone. So, you’ve just released me, thank you, pet. *soulevilclonetwg quickly turns on her heel and plants a kiss on Simon’s cheek. She breaks into a sprint and disappears down the corridor…*

*twg begins to stir.*
Gorram, my head hurts. *she observes the chaotic scene before her and smiles* Perfect! It’s just what I wanted. Everyone forced into the common room to meet their halves and absorb. *mentally gives herself a pat on the back* My Entropy skills are growing. Yay.
*She sees the River-clone skipping through a field of kissies*
Now then, where is my ship?
*She sees the Admiral upside-down. She strides into the shuttle and spies Bride 5 dangling in HER seat.*
What did you do to my shuttle? Out, please. Hang on girls, we’re getting out of here. *twg straps herself into the vacated chair. A few button presses later and the ship is righted, shrunk, and zipping through the False Tree to the Real Tree…not knowing both Statics were onboard the false tree.*

"...turn right at the corner then skip two blocks...no, SKIP, the hopping-like thing kids do...Why? Why not?"

*After visiting with Emma, Rat waneders in and finds his other half slumped over drunk.*
*Sniff* Thats not rootbeer!
*DarkRat stands to face Rat.*
In unison: You look just like me! No I don't! You look just like me!!
*Music starts playing.( http://s93419691.onlinehome.us/music/Evil.mp3 )The next thing you see is the two Rats wearing propeller beanies and riding through the halls on a bicycle built for two!*
*After a few hours of this* Rat: Well DarkRat, it been nice knowing you, but you know how this must end.
*The two Rats touch their right index fingers together, there is a flash of light.....and only one Rat remains!*

But how will we tell which Rat won?
Oh well, looks like my plan with the evilclonetwg was a complete failure. Still, at least I've made it look unfashionable, that's got to count for something.
Now, I think I better track down my evil side. He's still up to something I bet.
*meanwhile on the fake Tree*
Ah, this is the life. Lounging on the sun bed with a cocktail in hand. Sure, I've got evil schemes but they can wait a few hours.
*beep beep, beep beep*
Oh, what now? The main reactor is going to blow up? Whose brilliant idea was that? Well, I guess I'm going to have to pay a visit to the sunny side of the street.
*hits a button on the main panel and disappears from view*

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. *
A single flame appears in the center of the False SereniTREE's common room. It hovers for a moment, then leaps to the left and drops down, slowly carving out the shape of a human figure. Finally, the outline is complete, and from the corners of the room the shadows rush forward, pulling with them the traces of light. The figure solidifies, and Soul emerges, stepping out of the air and onto the Spam-covered floor. His face is hard, set; but if anyone looks close, they can see the trace of tears in the corner of his eyes. He steps forward, slowly, trying to ignore the chaos around him, his goal the only thing on his mind.
Across the room Serenity lies.
Soul picks up the pace, and drops to his knees as he reaches her side. He gently cradles her hand and runs his finger across the glowing scar.
"I'm sorry I left you," Soul whispers. "Never again."
He gently lifts her up off of the floor, her wings falling away to reveal her face. Soul stands slowly, and brushes his lips against her forehead, pausing long enough to whisper something in her ear. Then he turns, and the sound of alarms reaches his ears.
"It seems that here is not a good place to be."
The shadows swirl, the light dances, and Soul and Serenity dissapear.
On the real SereniTREE, a breeze can be felt in Serenity's room a moment before Soul and Serenity appear. Lying her gently on her bed, Soul gently kisses her cheek, and then turns to the door, flames dancing in his eyes.
"What my darkness created, my light must end!"
There is an explosion of flame, and Soul leaps through several alternate realities until he finds himself again on the false SereniTREE, his bow out and ready.

* River-clone leads Nugget and his kissie friends down to one of the False Sereni-Tree’s cargo bays. At some point, she is required to find a vac suit to travel through an area opened to space by the Cozenroaches. Nugget, being a meteor troll, is durable enough to survive this exposure. Sadly, the kissies are not. Nugget deals with this problem by eating them. *
* River-clone and Nugget find the True General Lee, used by Rat’s force to board the False Sereni-Tree. They climb in and River-clone happily powers it up, shrinks it, and flies off. *
* At this point, the only means of exit from the rapidly decaying False Sereni-Tree are: the False General Lee in the Common Room, Emma’s False ship attached to the main airlock (accessed from the common room), Emma’s True ship (shrunken and in Rat’s pocket), and the personal powers of teleportation that virtually everyone seems to have suddenly acquired. 
*
* Oh, there are also two more shuttles in the False Sereni-Tree’s hanger and a number of speeder pods there, but none of them has the shrinking tech to slip out through a hole made by the Cozenroaches. At least, not yet. The holes are getting bigger.*
* On the False Sereni-Tree inside the False General Lee are Jake7, Mai, Montanagirl, and Jazaf, all waiting for a pilot to arrive (or for Mai to awaken). Ebo might be with them, but maybe not. Also aboard the False Sereni-Tree are PsychicRiver and a Zoe-clone fighting together on a balcony with mops, Emma in her False ship, the good and evil Statics together, possibly the evil SimonWho (who may have just teleported to the True Sereni-Tree), SoulofSerenity, and the evil Cozen. *
* Now, some of you (and you know who you are) still need to fuse with your evil selves. Some of your evil selves may be aboard the True Sereni-Tree, causing trouble. *

Evil Twins that are known to have existed and have not yet been absorbed are those of: SimonWho, ThatWeirdGirl, TheRealMe, Static, Cozen, and Jake7.
Evil Twins that probably existed but have never been seen are those of Lissa, Ebonezer, and Montanagirl.
Mal-licious may or may not have had an evil twin, but it certainly would have been her decision!

* The Infinite Goof sorta sidles up to a temporarily unoccupied SimonWho, and makes a subtle enquiry of the good doc regarding the viability of having a broken wrist set. *
* Thrusts damaged arm at SW. *
Y'know, maybe, by way of distraction from the inevitable excruciating pain, we could discuss the many and varied merits of the fine Sereni-ladies? Sure, I'll start. F'rinstance, I can't help but admire MontanaGirl's ability to remain just on the edge of the ugliness, thus saving herself from being smeared by all the horror. Now that's an ability I freely confess to enying. Hmmm, and doesn't our gracious cap'n share this trait in spades?
And, well, seems we're here, and our evilselves are somewhere over there. So, if we hafta go through with this commingling business, how, exactly, does one get from this place to the other?
* Procures and opens a handy bottle of 17 year old Bruich Laddich. *
Then again, why worry?
