OOC: This must be what going mad feels like. And, damn! The Chinese didn't work!

-----

"This must be what going mad feels like", Yossarian stuttered in shock. He checked his instruments for the 27th time. Blinking and contorting his face brought no enlightenment. “ it”, he muttered and left the cockpit. Back in the pantry, Yossarian searched for the bottle of cooking sherry he kept.

-----

The heat and wind from the engines subsided. “Which one of you ordered the ?” came the commanding voice of Mal, as he strolled confidently down the platform, Zoe close behind.

Teela Brown was gone. The person she had been was back in a pantry getting sauced. What remained was a babbling, lovesick shell of a woman. Her mouth open slightly, she spoke, “That would be me.”

“You’re Merz? A pleasure.” Mal grinned. Teela Brown’s legs melted away beneath her.

Mal turned to Jeremy. “You must be Hlastoni.” Jeremy nodded dumbly. “Man of few words. I heard you would be. Well, the bad news is the got a little beat up, but the are right as rain. So, how about you show us the platinum and we unload your goods?”

Jeremy nudged Teela, er, Merz. "I thought i was Jeremy."

"You are," she babbled.

"But he just called me-"

"You him too." she cut Jeremy/Hlastoni off.

"How can I be somebody who's name i can't pronounce?"

Mals loud voice inturrupet their hushed conversation, "You do have the platinum, don't you?"

Jeremy felt a weight in his pocket and pulled it out, "This?" He tossed it to Mal.

"That'll do nicely," Mal said, pocketing the small leather pouch.

"Wash!" He called out and a man with blonde hair and a hawaiin shirt drove a quad down the ramp, pulling a trailer with a sliver box on the back. He dropped the box off and drove back up, "I wanna be in atmo in five," Mal mumbled to Wash as he drove by.

"Well," Mal said grinning, "It's been a pleasure doing busness with you. Hope to do it again some time." He turned and started walking back into the ship.

"Wait!" Teel shouted. Mal turned and looked back at her.

"You just going to leave?" she asked in disbelef

"That is the notion. Best not to attract attention to ourselvs."

He turned presed the controll panel, and the door slowly raised and closed with a thud.

Teela watched in disbelef as Serenity felw away.

Jeremy turned to the box he pressed a few buttons and the top flew open. Inside, a man with red hair was lying naked.

Jeremy leaned over the lid and asked, "Whad you order a cyrogenicly frozen guy for?"

YOU STOLE MY BRAIN!!! What are you doing with him anyway? BTW, I have a crush on Simon. But Mal is cool.

"Huh." was all Teela could manage to say. "So, you don't know who he is?"

"Sorry. I hardly know who I am, one stone at a time." Jeremy said.

Tash was looking at the man intently. "I know who it is..."

The naked red-haired man suddenly sat up and screamed. He jumped out of the box and began running and leaping wildy about, lunging and kicking in mid air.

"Woah, that's not something I needed to see," muttered Teela.

Eventually the crazy naked man calmed down. He sat on his haunches looked at the group with bright eyes.

"What's your name?" asked Jeremy.

"Maniac," the wild man said.

"Erm, thats nice," said Jeremy. "You know this guy?" He whispered to Teela.

A clunking noise made them all turn round. Serenity had returned.

Capt. Mal was standing at the top of the ramp holding a gun on a tall, muscular, dark haired man. " Jayne, I think you got something to say to these folk," he said as he walked down the ramp. Simon joined them, enjoying Jaynes discomfort. "Gorrammit I din mean no 'arm," said Jayne, "wot I gave em is worth more than wot they ordered." Mal jabbed the gun into Jaynes back. "Ah hell", said Jayne and he held out a small brown parcel. "This ere is your goods," he said, "I accidentally swopped the details with that package." He nodded to the squatting man.

Zoe and Wash appeared. Zoe shot a tranqualiser into Maniac's arm, then they loaded him back into the cryogenic container.

"I hope theres not going to be a problem with this," said Mal, in a pleasent voice. His eyes had a dangerous gleam. "You got your goods, I have mine, I figure that makes us even."
Jeremy glanced nervously at the engines. "Yep," he said "totally even. Easy mistake to make all sorted out now so lets forget about it." He gave Mal a manic smile.

Meanwhile, Teela had opened the small brown package. It contained three home knitted orange hats with ear flaps and a bobble on the top. "Wow," said Jeremy, "I always wanted one of those." He grabbed one of the hats and put it on his head. "Me to, me to," cried Tash. Jeremy grabbed a second hat and pulled it over the top of Tash's jar.

Jayne looked as though he was about to cry. "It's just I lost me mams hat," he said, "and she will be ever so upset." Teela stared at him for a moment, then held out her hat. "You can have mine," she said. A smile lit up Jaynes face and he gave Teela a big hug.

"Thats mighty fine of you ma'am," said Mal, "infact a fine deed like that deserves a reward." He had noticed the way Teela kept gazing adoringly at Simon. "Doc give the lady a kiss," he ordered.
"Pardon?" Said Simon, he blushed a deep red.
"I said give the lady a kiss," ordered Mal.
Simon had enough sense to realise he had better obey the captain. He leant forward and pecked Teela on the cheek. "Call that a kiss," laughed Mal, "this is how it should be done." He swept Teela into his arms and gave her a long hard kiss. Then he turned to Simon and said, "now you try it again and you keep trying until you get it right, an educated man like yourself should be a fast learner."

An hour later Mal was happy that Simon knew how to give a proper kiss. "Well we'd better be goin' now," he said, it's been a pleasure doin' business with you." He and the rest of the crew boarded Serenity.

Jeremy carefully put Tash down on the sand and sat next to him. While they waited for Teela to recover from her swoon, Jeremy pondered who had sent them the hats and why.

Succatash felt a little sick watching the Firefly kissing fantasy and he threw up inside his jar. It made quite a mess.

Suddenly, shouts could be heard from inside Serenity. Without warning, the naked red-haired man named Maniac jumped out a window and landed on the ground.

"Sir!" Zoe's voice could be heard. "The tranquilizer has no effect! He got away!"

Maniac cackled wildy and sprinted off into the hills.

Tash watched the bare white butt of the Maniac bouncing away, he found that only slightly less disturbing then Teela and Simons make out session.

He turned and saw Serenitys door coming slowly down.

Mal, Zoe, and Jayne came out on the Quad and started after the Maniac.

Wash came down the steps from the bridge and said, "So, I'll just stay here then."

Simon stepped forward, "Somebody wanna explain to me why there's an easy-to-open window on a spaceship?"

Jeremy saw somethng on the inside of the box, picking it up he saw that it was a medical ID bracelet that said:

Maniac Whedon
If found please return to the 21st century

Maniac bounced and leaped into the hills, and he could hear the sounds of pursuit.

He ran down a hill and spied a cave. He ducked into the small cave and quickly blocked the entrance with some bushes.

Moments later, Mal, Zoe and Jayne drove past in the Quad. They didn't see the hidden cave. The noises faded away.

Maniac cackled with pleasure. He looked around and realized that the cave continued in a downword slope. He began walking deeper into the cave.

Suddenly he came upon the form of two dead bodies. One was a cavemen and the other was an astronaut. It looked like they had killed each other in a fight.

Maniac shrugged. He removed the loincloth from the dead caveman and strapped it onto himself. "Perfect fit!" exclaimed Maniac happily.

He spied a jet pack laying beside the dead astronaut. The digital display flashed, "Gas Tank - 3/4 Full."

Maniac cackled wildly and strapped on the jet pack. He turned around and walked out of the cave. He knocked away the bushes that blocked the entrance and strode into the sunlight.

He turned on the jetpack and flew away. He cackled with glee and his loincloth flapped in the wind.

My gosh y'all are funny. I haven't laughed like that in a long while. Make out with Simon...wow...

Teela had recovered from having two very fine men kiss her. She was still very, very red though.

"What's that speck in the distance? Doesn't seem like our kidnappers, does it?"

"Okay, so what's with the hats? What do they do, why do we need them? And what is that infernal cackling?" Teela wondered aloud.
