(((Part 4)))




"Come, come, come!" Frank insisted, dragging Buffy and Riley by their arms. "Come with me to the auditorium! You really must see the floorshow!"

"Frank, I'm not putting on that outfit," Buffy warned.

Frank pouted. "Oh, please, Buffy! If you don't put it on, I'll have to magnetize you... and you wouldn't want that, would you?"

"That's it!" Riley said, throwing his arms in the air. "I've had it. I really have no clue what's going on, but you all are starting to bug me."

"Me too!" Willow agreed angrily.

"Yep, I'm in with that," Xander added.

"Yes... erm... quite," Giles agreed, polishing his glasses.

And then the music began *again*.

"Oh, God...," Buffy groaned.

"This is my little segment, isn't it?" Willow asked, confused.

But it didn't matter, because soon Rocky began to sing. "I'm just seven hours old, And truly beautiful to behold. And somebody should be told My libido hasn't been controlled. Now the only thing I've come to trust is an orgasmic rush of lust. Rose tints my world and keeps me safe from my trouble and pain!"

"This is ridiculous!" Buffy scoffed, grabbing Riley's hand. "Come on. We're getting out of here."

But Frank blocked their path. "Whatever happened to Fay Wray? That delicate, satin-draped frame? As it clung to her thigh How I started to cry 'cause I wanted to be dressed just the same," he sang. "Give yourself over to absolute pleasure. Swim the warm waters of sins of the flesh. Erotic nightmares, beyond any measure And sensual daydreams to treasure forever. Can't you just see it? Oh, oh, oh... oh! Don't dream it, be it."

"Let's get out of here," Giles agreed, eyeing Frank very strangely.

And then the music changed again.

"My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my...my! I'm a wild and an untamed thing. I'm a bee with a deadly sting. You get a hit and your mind goes ping. Your heart'll thump and your blood will sing. So let the party and the sounds rock on. We're gonna shake it 'till the life has gone. Rose tint my world, keep me safe from my trouble and pain," Frank sang.

Now Riff Raff and Rocky joined in. "We're a wild and an untamed thing. We're bees with a deadly sting. You get a hit and your mind goes ping. Your heart'll thump and your blood will sing. So let the party and the sounds rock on. We're gonna shake it 'till the life has gone. Rose tint my world, keep me safe from my trouble and pain!" they sang. "We're a wild and an untamed thing. We're bees with a deadly sting. You get a hit and your mind goes ping. Your heart'll thump and your blood will sing. So let the party and the sounds rock on. We're gonna shake it 'till the life has gone, gone, gone. Rose tint my world, keep me safe from my trouble and pain."

All the while, Frank continued to urge the Scooby Gang out of the auditorium where they had moved with the beginning of the music and back into the laboratory.

Just when Buffy was afraid she couldn't stay away without touching Frank any longer, Riff Raff stepped in his path.

"Frank N Furter, it's all over. Your mission is a failure; Your lifestyle's too extreme. I'm your new commander; You now are my prisoner. We return to Transylvania. Prepare the transit beam!" he shouted.

"Transit beam..." Buffy murmured.

"Wait! Wait, I can explain!" Frank pleaded. He began to croon out his last number. "On the day I went away..."

"Goodbye," Rocky sang.

"...Was all I had to say...," Frank sang on. "Now I... I want to come again and stay!"

"Hoo boy," Willow muttered.

"Smile, and that will mean I may. 'cause I've seen, oh, blue-"

"Can it," Buffy said suddenly. "Hey, Riff Raff, did you say 'transit beam'?"

"Yes...," he grunted suspiciously.

Buffy glanced around at the group. "Well... do you think you could transport us back to our dimension? Somehow we got sucked here in our dreams, but... well, it's just too weird. I'm pretty sure we'd all like to get back."

"Hey, put that down!" Riley warned suddenly. "That's a laser!"

They all looked over to where Riff Raff had picked up the gun. "Yes, Riley Finn. A laser capable of emitting a beam of pure anti-matter." He leveled it at Frank, accidentally knocking Giles's glasses off his nose.

"You mean...you're going to kill him? What's his crime?" Buffy demanded. Everyone just stared at her, and she laughed. "Okay. Sorry. Dumb question."

"Look at what he's tried to do to all of us!" Giles added. "Society must be protected."

"Exactly, Dr. Scott- erm... Rupert Giles. And now, Frank N Furter, your time has come. Say goodbye to all of this, and hello... to oblivion!"

"Cool!" Buffy squealed, as the escaping Frank and his creation were caught in the gun's beam. Their bodies fell into the pool below.

"You killed them!" Riley said, shocked.

"But I thought you liked them! They liked you!" Willow objected.

"They didn't like me," Riff Raff sneered. "He never liked ME!"

"Well done," Giles commended him.

"A decision had to be made," Riff Raff shrugged.

"Fine by me," Xander agreed. "He was... really... very strange."

"Mr. Giles, I'm very sorry about your glasses," Riff Raff said in his strange voice.

"My glasses? Yes, well, perhaps it was all for the best," Giles said thoughtfully. "I've been meaning to get a new pair."

"Have you considered tortoise-shell?" Riff Raff inquired, lowering the gun.

"Yes, actually," Giles admitted. "But personally, I think I prefer the-"

"Guys!" Buffy interrupted. "I'd really like to go home now."

"Yes, you should all leave now," Riff Raff agreed. "I will beam the house back to your galaxy, and then Magenta and I will journey home to our... beloved planet Transsexual, in the galaxy of Transylvania. Come! We must get ready!"
