Haha! You know that you only get drunk if your body lets you?? Have stronger will power, I say!! Promise me, you guys, stay safe. *double fingers* Peace out!!

Bloodlust Night- Awww thanks, hon!! This story is nearing the end soon so just hold out for a little longer. Just think, I'll miss doing all the responses to your reviews *sniffs* Oh my baby all grown up... *faints*

Legolas Luver- All the good ones are either gay or taken, my gosh. WHY??? Why are we all left with the hellbent on testosterone losers???? *cries hoarsely*

Bra Chan90- Lol I love guys with soft hands, they remind me of cute babies. Shows that they take care of themselves (guys, not babies). Oh I think I feel a writer's block coming on...

Punky Gal- LOL!!! Oh you come out with the most strangest (yet simplest) things! If only... *sighs*

Hannio- *snorts in disbelief right along with you* Now, people, why do you think I diss men? Not because I feel like it, but because I have a reason to!!! All they do is- 1. Be so utterly insensitive to your emotions. 2. Oggle your boobs. And 3. There are a few girls out there who've found their dream guy, but what happens to the rest of us?

The day I find a decent guy will be the day that pigs take over the universe with toxic snot.

Teknoman Dark- Heya newbie, thanks for reviewing!!! Say, if you keep at it then I will share some of my girly gossip with you. Ask any of my preciousssss reviews, they love the good ol' KD bantering, don't they? *silence* Don't they??!!! *hangs head in shame* You don't have to answer this if you don't want but what gender are you?

Lady of the Dark- Hahaha!!! I was eating a chocolate stick when I read your review and it was so funny my stick broke... Moving on swiftly, Sinterklaas sounds like fun! The reason why I thought it was Christmas was because of the similarity to 'Santa Claus' which is the name of that old fogey who also goes by the name of Father Christmas, lol. Joking joking. And what is it with you people??? Errol is a fabulous name!! *mumbles* Errol haters... AND ERROL DOES NOT RHYME WITH CAROL!!! It rhymes with peril, feral and level but not CAROL!!!!!

And oh, what a pity you're alive (that was intended in the best way possible). Have you seen 'LXG'? That vampiress is sooooo groovy, if I was a vamp, I'd wanna be like her!! Oooh and she also gets Mr. Dorian Gray *wink wink nudge nudge* Oh, and guess who's back? *shrieks with laughter*

Trunks-Maniac- Trunks needs to control his temper? Understatement of the century is what I say! *punches chest* Power to the people!

Enjoy!

The Rat Strikes Back

------------

: : WEDNESDAY 21st AUGUST : :

Three days after we had initially met, Errol took me to town as part of a moving art workshop. He'd enrolled me in a weeklong course and I found myself working alongside him every day. That was a whole new experience for me and I was glad I did it. That evening, after a long and eventful day of touring the city for artifacts and scenery, Errol decided on us going to a new nightclub in town. It was called Seduction and the guest list consisted of A-List celebrities, including Errol Valentine. I was surprised not to have heard of him before seeing as he was pretty well known.

Anyway, he led me into the club by both my hands and I tried to ignore the scowls I received from the people who'd been queuing up for hours on end before me. The noise instantly pierced my ears and I spotted a few famous faces sitting around on the couches. Errol sat me down at the bar and ordered in some drinks.

'So, have you come here before?' I asked, I took a sip of my cocktail and the taste exploded in my head.

'Yes, many times. I'm also a main investor in this club. Loads of profit.' he answered with a smile and a wink.

I was about to ask him about the guest list when I was distracted by the arrival of an amazingly gorgeous guy.

'Hi!' he said. Not being sure of whether it was to Errol or me I just smiled. The cocktail effect still buzzed in my brain so I decided to leave it. Errol stood up and it turned out that he'd made arrangements with the mystery man. They excused themselves and I remained alone at the bar.

'You sure you'll be okay by yourself, Marron?' Errol asked, hinting concern.

'Yes... mother!' I laughed. I was actually regretting it because I got really bored on my own. I sat for a while for the atmosphere to seep in before I took off for exploring the club. Not knowing what to expect next, I foolishly walked in- unnoticed- on a conversation between a stranger and a voice I knew all too well.

'What happened with him anyway? You never really told me.'

'Oh, let's just say a dumbass friend of his caught me smooching Ryan.'

Dumbass friend!!

'Really? Boy or girl?'

'Girl. I always thought she was like, jealous or something. She was always, around, you know?'

'That's bad, you shouldn't have overlooked that in the first place. Like, you should have said my way or the highway, you know?'

'Yeah but he was kinda a ditz anyway. And would you believe, he wouldn't get into bed?'

Wow! I gasped. WOW! No sex? That was a BIG role in Trunks's life, and yet, NO SEX? Either this girl isn't all that, or he's being really cautious about something.

But, dumbass friend? Ditz? This girl is terrible.

'Marron!' I had been spotted and she was coming over.

'Hi Lorna...'

Eeek, I thought. Act normal, Mazzie.

'Marron,' she started, on approaching me, 'it's nice to see you again, what brings you here to this nightclub?' she asked, sticking her nose up and giving me a look as if to think I wasn't good enough.

'I'm here with a man named Errol Valentine. I could ask the same for you.'

'Errol... Valentine?' she repeated. I could see her expression change from curiousity to cunning. She smirked and then said, 'I'm here with a boss of a large company downtown. I must get going, Marron. See you.'

I pulled a face and confusion swept my dainty little face. I decided to follow her, being careful not to get myself seen. After much dodging and ducking from swinging dancing arms, I stooped to one side of a screened door and could make a faint outline of a taller person, most likely a man, standing beside Lorna.

'You wouldn't believe who I just caught Marron with... You remember her? The one I told you about?' Lorna enthusiastically notified. The man nodded and donned an excited look on his face.

'Errol Valentine!' she squealed.

The man gasped and his eyes widened. 'No! Are you sure?'

I scowled and angry thoughts filled my head. Lorna was a bitch and a blatant liar. Because for one, she did not actually see me with Errol, and two, what was so amazing about it anyway? And three, I just simply despised her. Something was definitely going on in her messed up head.

A hand placed itself on my shoulder, and out of pure paranoia, I whipped around and whacked Errol in the nose.

'Oh my gosh! Honey, I'm sorry!!' I pleaded. 'I'm sorry!'

'Hey, Marron, it's okay, it's okay! It was an accident.'

I smiled and gave Errol and smug look. 'If that's what you want to call it!' I laughed and then even harder when I saw that he didn't get the joke. 'I was trying to say I hit you on purpose. I was joking!'

Suddenly Errol's face changed and he hung his head down. 'Oh-oh-okay, Marron. I understand, you can't help it if you feel like you want to hit me...' he was frowning and he wouldn't look at me.

'Errol!' I gasped, 'I was only jo-'

'Fooled ya!!' he burst out and then the tables were unexpectedly turned. I sighed and punched his arm. Then punching his arm reminded me of punching Trunks's arm, then punching Trunks's arm reminded me of Trunks, and then I momentarily got lost in my own thoughts about that damned boy until Errol snapped me back to reality.

It was getting late and so we decided to leave the club. We both grabbed our stuff from the cloakrooms and set off.

'Hey, Errol.' I started, 'Is there anything you want to tell me?' His face donned a confused look and so I felt like filling him in on what I had heard from Lorna and her guy friend.

'No... Not now. I'll tell you in the morning, okay? It'll be better. I don't think it's anything of a big deal anyway.'

'Then why not tell me now?'

'Because there's paparazzi stalking us.'

----------

I woke up the next morning with an aching back and a dry mouth. I glanced up at the clock and saw that it was nearly ten. So, on successfully dragging myself out of bed, I crawled my way into the bathroom.

Moments after showering, I wrapped a huge fuzzy towel around myself and sat down to the breakfast that had been lain out for me. It felt good to eat after what I considered to be a mini-hangover. I devoured the spanish omelette and then started on the croissants, while browsing through the morning paper.

Then I stopped in my tracks when I, at last, turned to look at the front headline. I read it out loud.

'The infamous prostitute..... spotted last night... blonde... Marron Chestnut... seduced Trunks Briefs.......'

A/N- Lol. I hate those guys, seriously! They don't leave the celebrities alone, do they? *sigh* I hope you enjoyed that ultra-micro-mini chapter. There's more to come soon!

Oh yeah, now do you know who the rat is?
