This has been awful to write, I have a vague idea of what the hell's happening, but at the same time, I don't have a smegging clue.
Okay, in a week's time, I'm going on holiday for 2 weeks. So :'( I won't be able to write more 'til then! So sorry people! Have a great summer!

"ARRRRGGGHHHHH!" Lister screamed, as they tried to haul him away.
"AAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!"
Oh dear, it seemed their stealth approach wasn't going so well.
Kryten was pulling Lister along, while Rimmer hovered awkwardly behind and Cat shifted out of the way with the grace and elegance of a butterfly. "Bud, do you think it's serious?"
"What?"
"He's screaming pretty loudly!"
"AAAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
"Naa. It's just some hallucinations."
Kryten's voice was pitched with fright, "Sirs, I don't mean to cause you any panic, but these hallucinations cause physical and mental harm! We must be extremely careful around him!"
"I am being careful bud!" Cat said, barely laying a finger on Lister, "Do you think I want to touch him? Do you know where he's been?"
"AAAAAAARRRRRRGGHHHHHH!" Lister screamed again, his eyes flitting around in pure terror, "YOU ORANGES CAN'T MAKE ME EAT YOUR DAMN VITAMIN C!"
"Yes…" Rimmer said, sarcasm dripping from his jaw, "that sounds very painful."
Lister was trembling from the pain, his face screwed up, and his frame shivering violently against Kryten. "What! WHERE THE SMEG DID YOU GET THAT CHAINSAW FROM?" His face was white, his fists clenched.
He must have been in a lot of pain; and frankly, it wasn't very nice to watch. Although, Cat strangely, had no problem looking at him.
"NOOOOOOOOOOO! I need that arm!"
Rimmer winced, "Now that sounds painful!"
…….
And so, the fish finally started the war! They smashed through the doors with a number of rather disturbing war cries. Their evil eyes quickly adjusted to the gloomy darkness of the room. They looked around for a bit, wondering where the smeg the prisoners had gone. Then it hit them.
Very hard.
…….
Cat had jumped on them. With a large grin I might add.
…….
The un-squashed fish yelled with surprise, and scattered. Well this was the last thing they had expected.
Cat was happily smashing the swarm of fish down with one of his shoes, "Why did we bother untying him again?" he said pointing at Lister who was just crouched in a phoetal position a few metres away, rocking back and forward.
"Because… well how the smeg do I know?" Rimmer redoubled, "Cat! Why are you killing them with your shoes?"
"I don't know what I was thinking bud! These shoes do not go with the polymer stitching on the cuff detail! I don't know how I missed it - Everyone knows swirls clash with emerald and Plum!" He grinned, whacking a fish on the head with the heel, "I'm killing two fish with one shoe!"
…….
One of the more clever fish saw Lister and immediately knew what to do. He flopped over to him, cutting at the human's wrist with a shiny claw. A tiny trail of crimson leaked from the cut. He sneered a menacing sneer, and then flopped back over to where the action was.
And just when things were going so well too. Most of the fish were either: dead, pretending to be dead or hideously mangled and either to weak to kill, or to vain to come out.
That was when Lister changed.
He didn't see the real fight. He saw his friends being held captive. By evil GELFs who were whacking them on top of the head with shoes. Oh dear.
He stood up, anger coursing through his veins. He could see Cat lying on the floor in pain, his dazzling suit stained with crimson. He could see Kryten - or bits of him, littering the ground. He could see Rimmer's light bee smashed and still fizzing with his life. A sob caught in his throat. He was going to save them.
Of course, really it was the opposite way round. But poor heroic Lister didn't know this. So he strode over to the 'GELFs', ignoring the pain racking his body, and let them have it. Again. And again. The tears in his eyes threatened to fall.
How could he let this happen? He needed to save his friends. He needed to help them. He couldn't let them die!
He almost cried out with the unfairness and pain. Letting his anger channel into fighting the GELFs away. Away form his dying friends.
The fish grinned as the poisoned human fought his friends. It was so evil. And so brilliant. Let him do the dirty work for them.
His friends couldn't fight back.
…….
