*Meanwhile, Serenity and Patience swim back to shore and head through the thick, trackless forest, dodging trees and fallen logs as they go. They soon lose sight of their fellow competitors and, well, everything else.*

Hmmmm... Cozen's sorta conscious, but sounds sorta... crazy. Except for the Inarachocolate.
* TheRealMe turns off the hose, then picks up Cozen and carries him to the Infirmary. He straps Cozen into a bed next to where Molly the Parrot is being tended by the autodoc. Next, he idly picks up the power drill that he acquired from the "Destiny" thread. He revs it a few times, just to see the drill bit spin. *
Hmmm... Wonder if I should try a little exploratory brain surgery?
Naw!
* TheRealMe wanders off with the power drill, looking to make a hole in SOMETHING. *

*thinks to herself as Patience hurdles another log in the dense forest they are currently traversing*
I wonder if anyone can find use for those spare pieces of lumber I've got stored in that back closet of my SereniGarden. If someone had a drill and some screws, I bet they could make a lovely spice rack for the kitchen. Especially as there's some sandpaper and paint and wood glue in the closet, too. We really could use a spice rack for the kitchen.
(Okay, not very subtle, but TRM with power tools makes me anxious. I felt he needed a creative outlet.)

* Bride6 slowly becomes conscious to find Prudence licking her face. *
What? Prudence? Oh, my!
* Sniffs. *
Prudence? Is that... that... SPIDER BREATH?
* Bride6 faints again. *

* TheRealMe picks up somewhat on Serenity's telepathy. *
Say, with this drill, some lumber, and some screws (and we always have a screw loose around here) I could build us something.
I could build us a rack!
* TheRealMe takes some tools, some nails and screws, and some lumber down to the Sereni-Tree's toruture chamber. *

After the sudden event with the Cozenroaches, Soul decides that he's had enough air for one day. He returns to the SereniTREE and begins looking for Static, who he hasn't seen in a while. He visits the bridge, and upon finding it empty is about to leave when a crackle of static emerges from the speakers. Soul looks over to see Emma's face on one of the computer screens.
"Emma?"
Emma begins to speak as if she hadn't heard Soul.
"To whoever recieves this, Rat and I have been captured by a Degassian warship, the Doe Marr. They seem to be a bit upset with me for some events that took place the last time I was here. They are preparing to board the Admiral Nelson so this may be the last message I can send. We were enroute to Degas 1, but I don't know where they'll take us from here. If anyone recieves this, I really wouldn't mind some help, because we may need it." Someone mumbles something and Emma looks to the side. "Oh, al right!" She turns back. "Rat would like some root beer if you can bring any." The screen goes black and silent.
"Why does Emma seem more and more like Vala?" Soul asks the empty room as he shakes his head and grabs the intercom, keying in TheRealMe's handheld. "Me, we seem to have a problem. Emma and Rat have gone and gotten themselves captured. I'm going to go ahead and form a rescue party and go after them. Could you let everyone know?"

Huh? Who is Vala? Oh, never mind.
* TheRealMe continues to listen to SoulofSerenity on his com-link, then nods. *
Right. I was afraid that something like this might happen with those two. Unfortunately, the Sereni-Tree is not spaceworthy just now, what with the recent Cozenbug attacks.
Soul, why don’t you select a hand-picked crew and go after Emma and Rat in one of our remaining shuttles, the Grant , Lee , or Napoleon? The rest of us will follow in the Sereni-Tree once it’s ready.
* TheRealMe calls up a list on his com-link. *
Soul, make sure you have a decent pilot with you. Let’s see… Hmmmm…. On my list are Emma, Jet, Mai, Rat, Static, TheGreyJedi, ThatWeirdGirl, and me. Oh, yeah, and Bride5 recently completed her training course. Those are just the ones I know about. We might have other pilots. Let’s see, Static and Grey seem to have gone into a torpor, and I’m going to need Jet to help me with repairs to the ship. Talk to Mai, ThatWeirdGirl, or Bride5, then. Oh, and if you can find the Rat-clone, he probably is a pilot, too.
And take some fighters with you.

* BACK ON THE ISLAND: *
* With a tired sigh, the pifflepony Prudence bends down, grabs the unconscious Bride6 with her teeth, and deposits her in the saddle on Prudence’s back. Bride6 slumps forward against Prudence’s mane. Then Prudence strolls over to Needleseye’s campfire, kicking kissies out of her way as she goes. At the fire, Prudence bends down to slurp up some more of Needleseye’s fire-roasted spiders. Prudence smacks her lips and turns to Needleseye. *
Delicious! Thanks! Once I’m done with my mistress’ stupid race, I’ll try to get back here for some more. Hey, have you tried roasting some of those damnable kissies? I bet they would be good, too!
* With that, Prudence grabs a four-leaf clover in her mouth and prepares to return to the race, trampling kissies as she goes. *

Vala. From SG-1. Oh, never mind.
"Let's see."
Soul stares down at the list in his hand.
"If Static is around, he would be ideal for this mission, but if not, I will need TWG. As far as fighters go, I'll need Jazaf, Bride2 looks promising, Serenity would be good, and probably Ath as well. Of course, then Lissa would have to come..."
Soul shakes his head and picks up the intercom, repeating Emma's message and his list to everyone in and around the SereniTREE.
"Well, that's my list. Anyone else who wants to volunteer, the more the merrier. We're meeting in the shuttle bay and heading out in fifteen minutes. I've got a feeling that time is of the essence here."
