I do not wear the cheese, the cheese wears-

The sound of the alarm cuts through Ath's dream, instanly waking him.*

Oh, great, what now? Hey Lissa, get up, something's going wrong. Again. *pause* Lissa?

*Seeing Lissa gone, Ath makes a quick search of the immediate area, his alarm growing with every fruitless second.*

Gorrammit!

*For the time being, Ath puts aside his concern for Lissa and heads to the bridge, stopping to free Simon on the way.*

Static, and for that matter, I, would like you to put some clothes on before you head to the bridge. See you there.

*Ath runs to the bridge, wondering where the heck everyone is. When he gets there he sees Static and PR looking very concerned.*

"Invader's blood marches through my veins like giant radioactive rubber pants. The pants command me! Do not ignore my veins!"

*Soul runs up the stairs into the bridge, entering just behind Ath.*

What in the good gorram happened?

*pulls on a stylish sweater/jeans combination*

Kidnapping. Sabotage. Evil laughter. A plot is afoot unless I'm very much mistaken.

*heads to the bridge*

Static looks up and sees the saboteur returning to the scene of the crime and before anyone can react, he's drawn one of his pistols. With his free hand, he grabs Soul by the throat, pressing with his thumb against the side of the adam's apple. . .squeezing just enough to make Soul's vision blur. He shoves the barrel of the pistol against the side of Soul's head. Despite the speed and anger of his movements, his voice is low and steady. (Imagine William H. Macy as "The Shoveller" from 'Mystery Men')

"I'm only going to ask you once. Where is she? Where are the rest of them, and what did you do to my ship?"

To punctuate his question, he thumbs the hammer on the huge revolver.

**Without taking his eyes off of the Saboteur, Static acknowledges Simon as he enters the bridge.**

"You and I will talk later."

*Soul grabs at his throat and tries to speak.*

I didn't do anything!

*Static squeezes tighter, his words dripping with vanom.*

Tell me, now.

*Soul reaches into his pocket and pulls out the note, letting it flutter to the floor, the words Catch me if you can! showing plain as day.*

I woke up, and I found that in my lap.

*Soul wants to tell Static about the eyes, the eyes that mirrored his own; but he's not even really sure of what he saw.*

**Static is nonplussed as he drags Soul over to the console, shoving his face close to the screens.**

"Explain to me then, buddy, why I see you plain as day wandering the ship making people go bye-bye?" Static asks. As he speaks, his voice remains calm and steady. The others are perhaps very sure of his intent to do serious damage if he doesn't start getting answers he can accept.

*PR stares on at the tension...and he stares carefully at Soul. Without looking at Static, PR speaks.*

He won't tell you. Can't. He can't tell you.

...He doesn't know.

**Static looks up, maintaining his hold on Soul.**

"What? What do you mean? He was being controlled or something?"

*walks in to see Static threatening crewmembers with violence*

Oooh, this may be a bad time for me to talk to you.

*watches as Soul's vitals start dropping*

On the other hand... Static, there's been something weird going on. Look, check out this footage marked 24:52:12:07 in the common room. But on this screen, at the exact same time, MontanaGirl disappears with Soul's... double? clone? His something or other. But there's definitely something that looks like him aboard. Or there was.

Er. I think you can stop strangling him now.
