Andros sits on the Simudeck at a bar, with Zhane trying once again to teach Karone pool, and trying to get Money out of Ashley `Karone pops the 7 in the corner pocket and grins* Yes! Ashley: Go Karone! Zhane takes his shot and knocks the 12, 7 and 10 balls in `Karone: Showoff *winks and waits for Ashley* Ashley knocks the white ball off the bottom wall and somehow manages to pop three more balls in their pockets. Ashley: That's how its done.. Zhane: yeah yeah `Karone smirks and nudges Zhane in the arm Travis sits at a table watching the pool game Ashley sets down her cue. "Think I'll quit while I'm ahead. Have fun you guys." `Karone takes a shot and ends up slipping the pool stick out of her hands to the other side of the room* umm.. oops? Zhane brings it back Andros gets up and offers Ashley his seat Ashley: Hee hee. Thanks Andros. Ashley sits while he pulls up another chair. `Karone glances over and giggles* Aren't they cute.. Joanna watches the couples quietly while spinning around on her bar stool `Karone shoots again Zhane: uh huh Ashley rubs shoulders with Andros, mumbling softly about absolutely nothing with him. `Karone shoots the white ball in* Did I win yet? Zhane: No Zhane pulls it out `Karone huffs Zhane: This is how you win *shoots the eight ball in* Zhane: See *smiles sweetly* `Karone rolls her eyes playfully* I guess you won, eh? Zhane: yeah `Karone: can't say I didn't try... *goes to sit down* Zhane: Wanna play again? Ashley: have pity on her Zhane!

Andros: yeah... Ashley laughs at him and starts playing with his hair. Astronema: *meanwhile... * Astronema wears a long, maroon cape as she walks into the restaraunt, and taking a seat in the shadowed corner Ashley doesn't look up until the newcomer is sitting down. Ashley: Someone's a little overdressed for going out..... Zhane smiles at Karone Astronema spots the rangers and keeps her head low `Karone grins and messes up his hair* That's for beating me! Zhane: How many is that? *smiles and kisses her* `Karone smiles Andros: come on ash, i'm hungry, let's go get something to eat.... Ashley: My thought exactly..

Zhane: Ok Zhane: I'll be right back `Karone nods Zhane comes back with Karone's salad and a coke for himself Zhane: Damn I forgot something Zhane: I'll be back in a minute *kisses her again and smiles* Zhane walks off Joanna pokes Travis "Wanna go play Mario Party?" Travis: okay... I get the blue controler `Karone sips a soda quietly and notes she's all alone* Guess I know where I stand in things *shrugs and plays with a napkin* Ashley and Andros make out while they wait for their meals to synthesize Astronema lurks from behind Karone, finding the best possible time to strike.... sneaking up behind her she teleports grabbing Karone with her Ashley: We should get back, they'll wonder what happened to us. Ashley: Well, Zhane and KArone won't. Andros: don't worry about it... Zhane goes back to the table alittle later "Karone" *looks around* Ashley: Oh...well if that's the way you feel...

Astronema sees the rangers walk in and grisms slightly* Oh,.. their back.. Zhane: Hey guys Zhane moves closer to Karone and holds her hand Astronema looks down at th strange gesture Astronema: I'm, not so hungry at the moment.. why don't we get back to the ship.. all of us *smiles sweetly* Ashley looks up Ashley: You had enough of Earth already?

Astronema doesn't recongnize the name at first and stares around at the scenery and how cool it'd look with a metal accent Zhane glares at Andros and Ashley Ashley giggles Andros: come on Andros teleports out Ashley teleports in a flash of light. Zhane: Karone whats with you today? Your acting weiurd! Astronema: Weird? Me? Perrish the thought Zhane *grins and touches his cheak* I'd know if I were acting "Weird"... *teleports out* Zhane dissappers then appers next to Karone Zhane: Yes you are! Zhane: I try to hold you hand, you shrug it off, I try to kiss you and you shrug it off Astronema rolls her eyes, trying to ignore him and walks around the ship, searching for Karone's room Zhane: *ahem* You passed your room Astronema: you don't have to make a big dea... oh.. thanks.. *walks back and slams the door in his face* Zhane sighs Zhane walks up to the bridge and sits down Astronema waits until she hears footsteps before she brings out the blue prints of the ship Astronema finds the engine room and goes to sneak off to it Zhane sighs as he sits on the bridge Astronema peeks inside and sees the large engine thingy* Perfect *grins eevily and sets the prints down bringing out a large, sharp tool from her satchel Astronema opens the engine door thingy and snaps a few wires here and there, making a total mess until a series of sparks appear* *grinning she teleports back to Karone's room* DECA: Hyper Accelators Offline Zhane: What? DECA: Hyper Accelators Offline Zhane: Scan the engine room DECA: Scan Complete DECA: Hyper Accelators Main Panel Damaged... Zhane: Who was in there last? DECA: Unknown.. Zhane: Lock off engine room to everyone except me and Andros *runs towards it* Zhane touches his communicator and says: Zhane: Andros goto the engion room Ashley looks up from the bubbles in the hottub. Andros touches on his communicator and says: Andros: give me a few... Zhane touches his communicator and says: Zhane: No now! Someone thrashed our engions! Ashley: What the..? Andros: ok ok Andros gets dressed, and heads for the Engine Room Astronema smirks as she hears all the ruckess from the rooms Ashley lingers in the tub for a bit longer, then decides to go see what's up. Zhane walks in and sees sparks everywhere Zhane: God! Andros arrives a few seconds later...shit Andros grabs the extingisher Zhane: My thoughts entirely Zhane: Someone knew what to do Andros: indeed Andros: DECA check internal scanners Ashley arrives a few minutes after Andros, hair still damp from the tub. Astronema yawns and goes back to her blue prints to try to find the simu deck.. Ashley 's jaw drops. Andros: ok who wasn't with someone else? Zhane sees Ashley "Have fun?" Andros: Zhane who were you with? Astronema quickley walks to the engine room faking a yawn* Man, what happened? Andros: sabtoage... Zhane: I got in a fight with Karone then went to the bridge Zhane glares at Karone Andros: so you were with Joanna, Travis, and Carlos Zhane smiles "hey" Astronema rolls her eyes* What happened?

Ashley looks at Karone. Ashley: She's right. Ashley: I'll go too Andros: Ashley go with Karone Ashley: Uh..no problem Astronema huffs to herself* Fine fine.. Ashley walks out, giving her a funny glance. Astronema stomps behind her Joanna switches off the N64 console and quickly brings up the surveillance cams on her screen Andros: Zhane, let's see if we can get this thing working *points at the mess* Zhane: Since when can we make maricals happen? Andros nods, and moves in Zhane goes to working on it Andros tosses some debris to the side Astronema folloes behind Ashley, grinning eeevily Ashley: I don't know where to start looking....if I were an intruder, where would I hide? Astronema: oh.. I dunno *looks up at the ceiling giggling* In the least possible place I guess Ashley gives Karone a sideways glance. Ashley: You didn't hear anyone when you were sleeping? Astronema: how can I'm when I'm asleep... duh ugh *rolls her eyes and takes a peek around the ship looking for good spots to terrorize* Astronema waits until Ashley turns around and karate chomps her on the neck sending her to the ground Astronema looks around and teleports the body to where Karone is Astronema walks back to the bridge and makes a saddened face* Guys!! Something Happened to Ashley!! Zhane turns around "What?" Astronema: It.. was.. Ashley.. she disapeared!! Andros: Oh my god...

Joanna: okay... and how long ago? *punches in a sequence on her control panel* Astronema: uhh, about *thinks a moment* 5 minutes ago Joanna: all right... *turns and watches the surveillance images carefully* Astronema smirks under her breath Astronema: try to find me pipsqueak Andros touches on his communicator and says: Andros: I don't see anything Joanna turns "nothing... are you sure that's where you were?" Astronema glares at her* Of course I'm sure? why wouldn't I be *realizes her snap* I mean... yeah.. Joanna blinks "Okay, I'll double check then... maybe take it back a few minutes further" Andros wanders back to the bridge `Karone fidgits around in her binded state trying to get lose as Ashley pops in* `Karone: Ashley! Ashley groans a little. `Karone: man are you ok? Ashley shakes her head dazedly.. Ashley: I dunno...I can't really see.. Ashley sags to the floor again `Karone: eek... ashley... you have to wake up... Ashley doesn't respond. `Karone sighs and continues to file a rop with her nail file `Karone feels a large break as the rope breaks* Yes! `Karone stands and teleports to the ship with Ashley `Karone runs towards the bridge dragging Ashley along behind her* GUys! Help! Zhane: Karone! Zhane runs over to her Astronema shoots up Zhane: Karone??
