We can't" DECA switches to Red Mode Joanna: yes we can... *edges toward the door* Zhane grabs Joanna's hang and shows his fangs to both rangers "No... We can't" Zhane: Give us a minute Travis *glares* Joanna: we can talk about this laaater... Travis pulls out a wooden stake.. Ashley follows Andros through the ship. Zhane kicks Travis into the wall then closes Joanna's door once he's in the hall Zhane locks it " Zhane: DECA Don't let ANYONE in Joanna screams Zhane grins at Joanna Travis gets up and breaks the door down then jump kicks at Zhane DECA: Negative....Will not comply Zhane: It won't hurt Zhane grabs Travis by the face (avoiding the cross) Joanna: Um, yeah, I'm sure, but I'd rather not take any chances... Zhane throws him into a wall Andros starts running down the hall as fast as he can... Zhane grabs Joanna and runs out Joanna kicks at Zhane Travis grabs the stake and slices at Zhane Joanna: hmm... maybe two can play at this game... Zhane ducks and runs off Joanna bites Zhane's hand Zhane sees Ashley and walks up to her "Damn Travis.. Remind me to kill him" Andros touches on his communicator and says: Ashley ignores Zhane and sniffs the air. "Where did Andros go?" Joanna squeals and clamps down on Zhane's hand a bit harder Andros: Travis....You ok? Zhane sniffs "SimuDeck" Zhane slams Joanna into the wall Zhane: I hate it when food makes noise Travis: I'm fine... but Zhane still as Joanna Joanna kicks Zhane hard you-know-where Zhane grabs Joanna and bites down on her neck hard Joanna screeches, then falls unconscious... Ashley stares at Travis in his cross and stick getup. Zhane grabs travis and kicks him right in the nuts then grabs his stake "Wonder if it will hurt you as much as it would hurt me" Zhane points it at his heart "I think I want to find out" Andros leg sweeps Ashley from behind Ashley: EEEP! Travis knees Zhane in the nuts Travis grabs the stake away from Zhane Ashley gets the wind knocked out of her when she hits the ground. Zhane shakes his head and trys to talk relizing his voice is still high Zhane: *high voice* Damn Joanna Ashley takes a swipe at Andros's leg. Andros keeps an elbow in Ashley's Back.... Travis: Where's Joanna at?? Ashley growls Zhane opens his eyes and kicks Travis in the 'you know what' as hard as he can Travis sweeps Zhane Andros: Hey Travis what's up with these two? Zhane lays on the floor moaning Ashley struggles, fangs bared and glistening. Travis: The bat that bit them... It must have been a vampire bat with a spell on it from queen psycho Zhane 's fangs come into full view Andros keeps Ashley pinned Travis kicks Zhane in the face Zhane: FUCK! OW! Zhane grabs his nose "He broke my fucking nose!" Travis goes over to Joanna Are you okay? Andros: Anyway to reverse it? Zhane gets up and bolts away when no one is looking Joanna is still unconscious Travis: well.... maybe if we could find that bat we could use the same venom that made them vampires to reverse it Andros: any ideas where we can get one? Zhane teleports to earth and grins Zhane: A free buffet Travis looks behind him Hey where'd Zhane go? Ashley gets tired and puts her head down, her fangs retracting.. Zhane grabs a pretty blonde and drags her behind a tree then comes back out a minute later grinning evilly Andros: Well you better hurry i'll stay here and keep ashley restrained.... Zhane walks around looking for another good one Ashley looks at Travis with animalistic eyes. Travis: Deca, Can you pinpoint Zhane's location?? DECA: Negative Zhane walks up to the beach and grins "HEY ASH GET OUT HERE!"" Travis teleports to the beach Andros: so ash....what's up? Zhane climbs into Ashley's lair before he sees Travis Travis walks along the beach trying to find Zhane Zhane: Yo PA you home? *looks around finding nothing* PsychoAshley is waiting for him in her lair, a bat hung upsiddown from a stalactite above her head. Zhane sees PsychoAshley "Oh... hey" PsychoAshl: Having fun? Zhane: Lots *grins evilly* Ashley doesn't answer, closing her eyes to rest, since she has had nothing to "eat". Zhane smiles at PA "So.... whats up?" PsychoAshl: Just enjoying my latest villainous scheme. How many Rangers did you manage to kill? Zhane: None but I knocked that psycho joanna out Zhane: And got a small snack PsychoAshley frowns. "With all your new power, you still didn't manage to get one?" Zhane: Ashleys trying to get andros Zhane: That new blue ranger had a cross Zhane: Not like I can fight that PsychoAshley smacks her forehead. Zhane: So unless you make it so I can not worry about crusafix's and stakes and all that then I can PsychoAshl: I don't know why I do these things to you...you're useless to me no matter what side you're on. Zhane: So unless you make it so I can not worry about crusafix's and stakes and all that then I can't exactly do what I want Zhane gets a idea "I got something I can do to help you" *grins evilly* Andros: So Ash, who do you think will win that Super Bowl you were telling me about *waits for Joanna to come too* PsychoAshl: I'm listening. Ashley is still struggling, and exhausting herself. PsychoAshley looks at him. "That's very nice. How will that help?" Zhane: Well, it won't really help _YOU_ but I won't be quite as hungry anymore PsychoAshley arches a brow at him in annoyance. PsychoAshl: I'm beginning to think this wasn't worth my trouble. Zhane walks closer grinning PsychoAshley takes the bat down from the cieling. PsychoAshl: *holds it upsidedown, prying its mouth open with her thumb* Joanna blinks as the hallway comes into focus... what the... Andros: hey joanna welcome back.... PsychoAshley lets some of the bat venom drip into her hand. Andros: could you do me a real big favor... Andros: could you get some cuffs from the Work-Bay Zhane: what are you going do to with that? PsychoAshley shakes her head. "Don't worry about it." Zhane keeps walking towards PA PsychoAshley lets the bat fly away. PsychoAshl: *flap flap flap Joanna nods dazedly and stumbles down the hall... PsychoAshley stands up and closes the rest of the distance between herself and Zhane. PsychoAshl: Well, this was fun while it lasted. Zhane grins "You look nice in that suit" Zhane: It could get more fun *smirks* PsychoAshley smirks at him, "I'm sure you'd like that." She splashes the venom on his face...! Zhane wipes his face "What the hell is that stuff?!"" PsychoAshl: The same venom you were bitten with. You'll be human again in just a bit. PsychoAshl: so to speak.. Zhane: Awww Zhane: But this was so fun Andros: grab the bat Joanna wanders back down the hall with the cuffs and hands them to Andros... PsychoAshley touched his face. "Awww I know. And you're so cute I'd just love to play with you a little more....but you're useless. Andros: thanks Andros cuffs Ashley.... Zhane: Yeah, thats why I single handly took down every ranger on my own one day Andros: You know i always wanted to do this... PsychoAshley shrugs. "We have good days." Ashley groans. Andros: i mean cuff some one....like in those cop movies.. Zhane: Good? Ha! I'm great Ashley: Sure...whatever.... Zhane: I can take all of you own on a bad day! PsychoAshley nods as his face turns back to normal.. Zhane frowns knowing he's turning good again PsychoAshley shoves him ahead of her to the cave entrance. PsychoAshley stops him at the cliff edge. "You were a very cute vampire you know..." PsychoAshley touches his chin with one finger. Zhane: I'm always very cute PsychoAshl: *kisses him on the lips* Now go bother someone else. PsychoAshley shoves him off the egde. Zhane: WOAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!! Zhane hits the sand and moans "She kissed me.... Then she pushed me" Zhane gets up and scrambles for the cliff Zhane collapses and moans holding his ribs Zhane: Bitch had to make me human before I fall... Travis see's the bat flying above him and grabs its feet Ashley is lying on the corridor floor with Andros nearby... Travis teleports back to the ship Travis: I have the bat Zhane growns and hits the teleport button on his digimorpher landing in the hall "OW!" Andros: ok do your thing...you know what your doing Ashley realizes what's happening.. Ashley: *fangs extend agaain* Ashley: No! Travis goes into a room with the bat Ashley lunges at Andros's neck, knocking him down and sinking her fangs deep into him! Andros: Fuck.... Travis comes out after a few minutes with a yellow liquid in a container.. Ashley has to drink this Ashley drinks deeply of his blood.... Andros kicks Ashley off Ashley rolls away, grinning and licking her bloody mouth. Andros: toss me the cure Travis gives the formula to Andros Andros: hey if i drink this, and Ashley sucks my blood, will it still work? Andros: i hope so..... Andros drinks container... Andros: Oh ash? Ashley looks at him Andros: i don't beleive u finished your snack, and i'm standing right here... Ashley is delerious with hunger and exhaustion by now.. Ashley jumps on him again.. Zhane just sits there Andros waits til Ashley has drunk most of his blood... Ashley finally releases him, mouth dripping. Andros faints after exhaustion Zhane: Damn Ashley finds herself retching. Ashley: Oh..god! Zhane: you got suckerd Ash Ashley crawls away in revulsion.. Andros starts coming too Zhane sits there and starts laughing his ass off Andros: you ok Zhane? Travis goes over to Joanna You okay?? Ashley is leaning against the wall feeling as crappy as she's ever felt in her life. Zhane: She kissed me *grins* Joanna nods and yawns Joanna: I'm kinda tired... Andros walks over to Ashley...."You ok" Travis: Maybe you should go to sleep theN? Zhane goes on about PA kissing him Ashley pulls back from him, his bleeding neck and his pale, bloodless face.. Andros: i'm ok.... Andros: the cure worked on me too, just before the spell took over. Joanna has apparently taken Travis's suggestion and is now sleeping in the middle of the hall Ashley wipes her mouth with one cuffed hand. "What did I do?" Andros: Nothing that can't be fixed... Andros helps Ashley to the infirmary for the second time... Zhane sits there laughing still Andros lets DECA scan Ashley, and leaves Zhane: She actually kissed me... *mutters* Then shoved me over a goddamn cliff Travis: She must love you Zhane Andros walks over to Zhane...."Will you come with me to the infirmary? Zhane: Why? PA already curied me Andros: you can tell me all about it there Travis: I think he might want to take a look at your nose Zhane: My nose? Oh yeah Zhane walks to the infirmary Andros: Well Done Travis.... Andros: Well Done.... *************** The End ***************
