*Eviltwg materializes near the common room. She tries to find SimonWho to stop his plan to help twg and the ladies. As she nears his room, she hears a low hum. Twg burts through the door…*
Oi! Simon! I’m back….let’s go make up for lost time…
*Eviltwg grabs Simon’s wrist before he can react and pulls him to her body…her finger glides down his cheek and across his lower lip…*
Or we can stay here…near your bed…

On the real tree
twg, how did you make it back here? Never mind, I think I've found a way to communicate with the other tree. Yes, it's great, but okay, a little less physical now please, no kisses necessary.
Look, all I have to do is set up a wide area transmission to beam a signal out into space and my identical room on the other tree will pick it up and broadcast to anyone in my room. Brilliant, eh?
evil twg nods with a grin
Now, just hold this transmitter and I'll start hooking it all up.
back on the fake tree, Simon is talking into thin air again
Okay, twg, I can tell you've found the box. Pull it out. Inside, there's something that will allow you to tell where my evil copy is on your tree.
twg opens up the box but inside there's only a small scrap of paper. She unfolds it and reads the message
It only takes a moment to work it out but by then the needle has been injected into her neck and the room is spinning
A little too easy. I hope your other half is smarter than that.
Suddenly Simon appears in the room
This is a message for the abducted residents of the SereniTREE. You've been taken from us but we need your location. You must try to ...
Oh very clever. Just ten minutes too late I'm afraid.
EvilSimon smashes the holoprojection equipment. Simon's message and the lamp disappear. ES looks down at twg's slumped form.
Now then. What are we to do with you? *grin* Well, you did always like a good kidnapping.
He lifts twg's unconscious form onto his shoulders and carries her away

*while mixing drinks on the pseudoTREE*
Serenity: lissa, one of us needs to go look for Ath, there's no telling what he could be up to.
lissa: I'll go!
Serenity: Okay, but find someone to go with you, just in case. I'll stay here and keep the drinks flowing. Do you want one of my katanas? And have you seen TRM recently?

*EvilSerenityClone perches outside the bridge, listening, waiting for her moment...*

**jake7 awakens in her room on the psuedo-TREE. Her head is throbbing with an awful headache. Disjointed images from the bridge of SereniTREE come flooding through her mind. She shakes her head and mumbles to herself...**
Man! I hate it when dreams seem so real! That was so weird! Why on Earth was I trying to seduce Static?
**Her head starts to throb more insistently and she makes her way over to a cabinet and finds some medication for her headache. She downs a dose, then leaves her room and heads for the common area. CallMeSerenity is behind the bar, mixing drinks, looking worried.**
Hi, Serenity!
**jake7 looks around the room, no other women are in sight, all the clone men are passed out on the floor, couches, hammocks, etc.**
Glad to see clone men are still just men... Where are the others?

on the pseudoTREE
Morning Jake7!
Everyone else went to bed. I couldn't sleep. I was having weird dreams, so I got up and came down here to try to clean up a bit before the men wake up. I'm making bloody marys for breakfast for when they wake up. *she grins wickedly* Also, I have this *pulls out a big maglight flashlight* to hit them on the head if any of them gives me any trouble. We think we've got them under control..for the moment. But how long that's going to last is anyone's guess. We really need to come up with some sort of plan to get ourselves out of this mess.
@-}--
Anyone else as confused as I am by all the dual entities running around?

**jake7 is startled by CallMeSerenity's mention of having weird dreams.**
That's odd..I had a weird dream last night myself!
What kind of dreams did you have?

As Jazaf and PsychicRiver make it to the bridge Static and Soul had just finished their conversation.
'Ok, We're all here.' PR says, 'So what's going on? Have we caught up to them yet?
Static briefs PR, Jazaf, and TRM on the situation. Soul adds his own input in various parts of the briefing. 'And that's the deal. I have to find my darker half and...come to terms with it.' Soul turns to Static to make sure his choice of words were correct. Static nods and Soul continues, 'However, there may be other complications. My darker half isn't alone. He has "enlisted" the darker sides of possibly everyone on this ship.'
'So the piece of myself I felt tear away, was my darker side?' Jazaf asks.
'Yes.'
Jazaf walks to a corner of the room to think about what was said.
'The good news is My darker side and I have already started a plan in motion.' Static states,'Right now he has EvilSoul in custody and gave us the coordinates of the ship. We should be able to see them at any time.'

On the real SereniTREE
Okay, twg, you're being a little overfriendly now. Yeah, put your hands in your pockets, that's it. Oh, don't pout at me, I hate it when you pout, come on, there there... yaaaaaaah.
Hands. In. Pockets.
I think we better get you to sickbay, you don't seem to be well.
Sickbay, on the fake SereniTREE
Ah, twg, you're awake again. Good, I'd hate for you to sleep through the best part. Sorry about the restraints but fair's fair, you tied me up first. I have such fun planned for us, it'll drive you out of your mind. Of course, this room was designed purely for the sick but I think I can be sick enough for the both of us.
It's such a pity you took an interest in my 'better' half. Going after Static, that I can respect. The man has ... an edge to him, I can appreciate that. Oh, this scalpel? Don't worry, I wouldn't harm a hair on your head. It's so much better when they can't see the scars; keeps the mystery, you see?
As I was saying, if that lighter, wetter, diet Coke version of me had any balls at all, he'd have taken you for himself long ago. He's the ship's Doctor, he could kill Static three times over and never even be investigated by the authorities. Still, his loss...
EvilSimon senses something
Hmm. I have an errand to run. Don't go anywhere now will you?

on the pseudoTREE
My weird dream? It's hard to remember now. Everything was black and white. I saw myself in a mirror, but there was something wrong with my reflection. And then I walked through the mirror and everything was the opposite-like film negatives. And I looked back, and there I was, still staring at myself through the mirror. Only I still didn't look right. And I couldn't get back out...I was stuck on the wrong side.
Why? Does this mean anything?
on the realTree
*EvilSerenityClone watched as PsychicRiver and Jazaf joined Soul and Static. She listened to their conversation. And then she smiled. She had heard enough...for now. She stretches her wings and vanishes in a cloud of black vapor.*
Back on the pseudoTree
*EvilSerenityClone becomes solid again, on the bridge of the pseudoTREE, right behind EvilStatic. She sees the gun he has pointed at EvilSoul. There is a flash of movement and EvilStatic falls to the floor, unconscious.*
We can't have him messing up our plans now, can we? *She says, stepping over him. She walks over to EvilSoul and kisses him.*
EvilSoul: How was the eavesdropping, my dark angel?
ECS: It went well. I have learned a few interesting things. The fools on SereniTREE think they've figured things out.
*she sits in his lap and tells him all she heard.*
