A/N: (Gasp) Another update...to the same story! So...we last left off with Zoey entering Quinn's room. Are Zoey and Dana crazy? Or is there more to it? I'm sure everyone knows by now what that is, so... yeah. I don't have much to say here, so onto the story!
To MAKEsomeDASEY: Yes. That's where this is going...eventually.
To pureangel86: Wait, when did I ever say this story was CZ? Are you confusing it with how I'm mainly a CZ guy? This is true, but no... this story will have both CZ and DL...sorta(sorry, can't explain what this means. :P ) I'm sure you must have noticed the DL start last chapter. I even mentioned it at the end.

-------------------------------------------------
The door opened, revealing Quinn on the other side. She was starting to look a little distressed. "Yes Zoey?" she asked her.
Zoey calmed down for a moment as she gazed at Quinn. "So... how's it coming along?" Zoey wondered casually.
"No more luck than the last time you came in here." Quinn stated plainly.
"Oh?"
"Yes. Now, is there anything else?"
"Actually... yes." Zoey paused to think. Quinn just stared at her. "Quinn, I think I may be going crazy. I'm hearing Chase's voice everywhere I go now. And I figured maybe you could help me out?" Quinn didn't react, and just stood frozen in place. Zoey waited for a minute, keeping her eye on Quinn, who never moved a muscle. "Quinn?" she asked.
Suddenly Quinn's eyes blinked once. Zoey jumped back slightly, as she had been watching her intensely. "I was just thinking, don't get all excited over it." Zoey scratched a small itch on her arm as she kept looking at her. "Zoey, could you go get Dana for me?" Quinn asked.
"Dana? Why do you need her?" Zoey wondered, confused.
"Well, if you want answers, then you'll go get her. Besides, she wants answers similar to yours as well." Quinn told her.
"I don't understand." Zoey admitted.
"Don't worry. You will. Go on now." Quinn shooed. I just need a minute to think. Quinn closed the door behind Zoey, and turned around to face the two boys sitting in chairs. She stared at them quickly, and started to walk towards them. I wonder... could that be possible? Quinn raised her arm and nudged Chase's own arm slightly, checking for any response at all, which there was none. I guess it would explain it.
Outside Quinn's laboratory of a room, Zoey was heading to her dorm room. When she and Dana had stared into each other's eyes earlier, it seemed like that she was heading back to their room. As Zoey approached the door, she found that she was right. As she lowered her hand to unlock the door, Zoey could hear a voice coming from inside. It was Dana's. Zoey opened the door and walked inside, and sure enough, found Dana sitting on her bed. "Who were you talking to?" Zoey asked curiously.
"N– No one." Dana stammered.
"Okay... well, Quinn wanted me to come bring you back to her room." Zoey told her. "She said something about you wanting the same information as me.
Dana just stood in place for a moment, before following her out the door.
As the two made their way back to Quinn's room, Chase's voice decided to speak again. "Zoey, I'm really confused about all of this." Zoey didn't respond to it at first, but eventually answered with "Me too."
"What's that?" Dana asked.
"Huh?" Zoey questioned back, slightly in a daze.
"You said 'me too.'" Dana told her.
"Oh. It's nothing..." Zoey assured her.
Dana raised an eyebrow at her. "Okay then." Zoey opened the door, and she and Dana entered Quinn's room. Quinn was still staring at two boys.
"I– uh... brought Dana." Zoey announced. Quinn turned around, her face stricken with sadness. She quickly tried to wipe it before Zoey or Dana noticed it, but Zoey had caught a glimpse of it.
"I'm guessing the two of you would like me to possibly explain why you have been hearing these voices in your heads." Quinn stated.
"Dana? You've been having voices too?" Zoey asked curiously.
"Yes." Dana said, looking away. Under her breath she muttered, "Very annoying ones..."
"But before I do that, I need to do a quick test." Zoey and Dana groaned at this. "But it should explain it to you anyway." Quinn stepped next to Zoey, her face just an inch away from Zoey's. Their eyes met, and stared into the other's.
As time passed, Zoey began to be a little freaked out. "Quinn?"
Quinn took a step back, and raised her hand. She stopped raising it once it was between Zoey and her's faces. Quinn showed Zoey three fingers. "Zoey. Tell me how many fingers you see.
Zoey blinked once before answering. "Three."
"Good." Quinn lowered a finger, leaving two remaining. "Now..." Quinn hesitated a moment, still looking straight at Zoey. "Chase, how many do you see?" Dana raised an eyebrow in curiosity.
"Uh..." Chase stammered. "I'm pretty sure I see two. But what does that have to do with anything?"
Quinn stood still, keeping her two fingers up. Dana stood waiting for the expected answer. Zoey just waited for Quinn to respond, which didn't happen. Time passed, and Quinn still kept her two fingers up. "Well?" she asked.
"'Well' what?" Zoey wondered.
"Aren't you going to tell me what he said?" Quinn told her.
"Huh?" Zoey asked dumbly.
"Tell me what Chase said. You are the only one that can hear him after all." Quinn revealed.
"I am?"
Quinn sighed, and turned toward Dana. "Dana, did you hear Chase at all?"
"Uh..." Dana's eyes shifted from Quinn, to Zoey, and back at Quinn. "Not really."
"Well there you have it. Now what did Chase say?" Quinn asked Zoey.
"He said 'two.'" Zoey announced.
"This is really weird..." Chase admitted.
"Thank you. I just have one more test to do now." Quinn smiled slightly evilly, as she turned around, and headed for the opposite side of the room.
"Why did you just smile like that?" Dana asked curiously.
"Oh... no reason." Quinn picked up an object, and walked back to the two girls. She whispered something into Zoey's left ear, which caused Zoey to break out in hysterical laughter.
"Hey! What's so funny?" Dana shouted, getting angry.
"Don't worry, it has nothing to do with you." Quinn said, advancing toward her. "Logan..."
"Yeah...?" Logan asked nervously. Quinn firmed the grip on the object she was holding behind her back. Neither Dana or Logan knew what it was. Zoey watched as Quinn walked to Dana, and saw her eventually stop, still holding the object... a mirror. (A/N: Okay, let's take a quick sec. away from the story. Can you tell what's going to happen next? Zoey's laugh, plus mirror, plus Logan equals...? Yep. I just had to do it.)
Quinn raised her arms, along with the mirror, to face level. "Logan. This is you're reflection." A second later, Dana toppled backwards, her hands covering her ears.
"OW!" Dana glanced up at Quinn, and glared at her, one hand still covering an ear. "Damn you Quinn! Why did you make him do that?"
Zoey and Quinn had started laughing. Dana stood up and crossed her arms. "I'm sorry." Quinn apologized, still laughing. "I needed that..."
"Well I'm glad you enjoyed it." Dana stated sarcastically.
"I'm sorry, but it's not my fault Logan is obsessed with mirrors." Quinn told her.
"Hey!" Logan objected.
Dana turned around, facing away from the others. You think you could've yelled that any louder? she thought.
"Alright, so incase you two haven't figured out what's happened yet, let me explain it to you in words. You see, ba– " but Quinn was interrupted by Dana.
"Short version please." Dana demanded.
"Zoey, Chase is inside you. Dana, Logan is inside you."
"He is?" Zoey asked.
"Yes. I believe, when I had you guys in here last night to switch you all back, Chase ran into you, and Logan into Dana." Quinn explained.
"I don't get it." Dana told them.
"Basically, what I've now figured out, my machine has moved your souls. Which is why you guys were placed into different bodies the first time. When I tried to put you guys back together, Zoey and Chase's souls, for example, must have come into contact. If I'm correct, the two souls "fought" each other. Basically, this means that they were trying to see who would gain control of the body. In this case, it was inside Zoey's body, and Zoey's soul had won, thus leaving Chase's soul wandering inside aimlessly. This is why, Zoey, you told me you were hearing Chase's voice, and why we can't hear him ourselves. He is inside of you. This goes the same way for you as well Dana. Logan is inside of you. Nicole and Michael managed to get to their own bodies safely, but Chase and Logan have not." Quinn continued explaining. She turned around and pointed to the seemingly lifeless bodies of Chase and Logan. "Their bodies are very much alive, but are just currently empty, which is why they had never woken up."
"Speaking of waking up..." Zoey started. "Chase actually did wake up late, I think..."
"What do you mean?" Quinn questioned.
"I didn't start to hear Chase until this morning, and we woke up last night. Why is that?"
"Oh. Remember how said that you and Chase's souls had 'fought'"? Quinn asked.
"Yeah." Zoey told her.
"Well, it had caused Chase's soul to get "knocked unconscious", as you could call it. And it didn't wake up until later. Same thing went for Logan." Quinn looked over at Dana, who was quietly talking to herself, an annoyed look on her face.
"Guess she's talking to Logan." Zoey guessed.
"You should just be glad that you won your little "fight", and you're not in your own body, but in a position similar to Chase, and not being able to control your own body, but Chase was controlling it for you."
"So, are you going to fix this?" Dana shouted suddenly. "I can not have Logan inside me like this. He's already bugging the hell out of me.
"You know you like it." Logan mocked, inside of her.
"Yes, I'll get on it." Zoey and Dana headed for the door, and opened it. "But just remember..." The two girls turned around to face Quinn. "Chase and Logan can feel everything you do, and hear everything that you hear, and can hear everything you think. So if you want to keep any thing private, it's best that you don't think it or speak it. Chase, Logan, the same goes for you two. If you want to keep anything private, try not to speak it or think it, though for you two, thinking will be the same as speaking."
"Ok..." Chase mentioned.
Quinn closed the door, leaving just her and the two empty bodies in her room. Quinn's face grew sad again. I need to hurry and fix this, and quickly. I couldn't tell Zoey or Dana the problem, or they might worry; Chase and Logan especially. But if I don't get this sorted out... Chase and Logan will be...
...gone.
