FINALLY! After a week of torture on camp in Brunie, I've arrived back to civilisation. The only thing that made it pleasurable was the kayaking, swimming and bike riding we had to do. As I'm writing these bear in mind that I haven't read any of the reviews you've sent me so if I'm missing something I'm sorry! Anyhow here is the next chapter. The mystery deepens… and any questions about the Greeks or camp will be answered if asked.

It had been a long day for Jodi. Mind you it was also her last day. It all started after the festival. The Greek festival that is. Every year, the Greek community would gather at the Hall and celebrate their Greek Easter (that comes a week after everyone else's passed). It is a grand banquet, with food streaming out of the kitchens and on to the large tables were hungry people of all kinds sat. The Greek festival isn't for Greeks only, of course! But for now the food stopped coming as the lights were dimmed all around except for the dance floor were a line of girls stood. They wore a black long sleeved t-shirt with a black skirt and a golden sash that hung loosely from their waist. Some of them were tanned, showing they were the second or first generation of Greeks to come to live in America in a search for a better life. Then there was the not so tanned, like Jodi for instance, whom the American (but in this case Australian) blood line had taken over most of the Greek.

"Ready girls?"

"Yes Marika…" was the reply. The esteemed chief of the Greek community played on his bouzouki the Zorba. It started slowly, with just a simple step-by-step shuffle. Jodi gave a nervous glance at the crowd that had accumulated in the Greek Hall and gulped. The hard part was coming up. The line broke up with four girls quickly stepping forward in a series of kicks and steps. The girls that were left behind that had included Jodi stepped up to them soon after making the line complete again. Then came the spinning. The right end spun first, two by two, then the middle, then the left end. Jodi spun around last and hoped that her blue hair that was the envy of all girls hadn't whipped anyone in the face for that would be mighty embarrassing. In another series of beats, the whole line spun before retreating back to their original place. The music quickened and reached its fastest beat. All girls danced quicker than ever with the simple step by step shuffle. It was quite easy once you got the hang of it. Step to the right with your right foot, bring your left foot behind your right foot, step right again with the right, two kicks beginning with the left kicking right and the right kicking left, then the cycle started all over again. The music stopped playing and clapping from the crowd took its place. The girls bowed and hurried off to the changing rooms.

"That was too tiring!"

"Tiring? More like the most humiliating thing I've ever done!"

"Greek dancing isn't humiliating!"

"It gets on your nerves after a while…"

Jodi gave a sigh of annoyance at her friend and got changed. Unlike the rest of them, she had to go home.

"Are you sure you can't stay?" asked Nin, one of her closest friends. Jodi gave her an apologetic look in reply.

"My mum called just before we started to dance. Something happened at work so she can't pick me up afterwards." Jodi answered. She put on her white and blue leather jacket and grabbed her helmet as she walked out.

"I can't believe your dad sent you a bike for your birthday…" moaned Nin obviously jealous. Jodi stuck her tongue out and winked with a cheeky air. Nin gave her the finger with the same air. Outside, Jodi put on her helmet and walked to the parking lot to her bike. It wasn't a new model and was a dirt bike but it fine by her. The colour used to be a light blue but with the amount of dirt on it was instead a yucky brown. Not that she cared. She inserted the key and drove off into the distance or to be more precise the traffic chaos. It wasn't heavy traffic but it was fast traffic, all eager to get away from the city where it was reported that the villains Doc Ock and his sidekick were terrorising the city and had created two man-eating lizards. So far no one knew the sidekick's name and the newspaper hadn't thought up a crafty name for him yet so Jodi simply called him Monkey because he was seen jumping around buildings after robbing banks and acting like a monkey. Finally she arrived at her house… well apartment. Parking her dirty bike, she walked up the stairs into her family's apartment. She gave a sigh of relief and plonked herself on the couch, taking her helmet off in the process. Her dog Pip looked up lazily before laying his head down again on the beanbag.

"Hello my darling boy!" cooed Jodi, reaching down to her dog, scratching him behind the ears. She turned the T.V on and changed the channel were her favourite film "Love Actually" was playing. Sure, Christmas was over but Jodi couldn't get over Hugh Grant. Damn he was sexy… Suddenly her dog started to growl.

"What's wrong Pip?" she said, reaching for her dog. Instead, Pip jumped up from the beanbag and rushed to the door. Jodi was worried. The dog never did that unless there was a visitor, someone who smelt bad or both. She slowly got up before rushing to the kitchen. As soon as she entered the kitchen's doorway, she heard a large explosion just outside her door and a yelp of pain. She grabbed a nearby frying pan and spun around. Debris was everywhere and a ticking sound like gears turning round and around echoed throughout the room. She held her frying pan up high and exited the kitchen. She was surprised and slightly hurt to find Monkey. Yet there he stood, with a black trench coat and red hair, held back by the yellow, swirl goggles. He stared at her with his red eyes.

"What do you want?!" she asked, raising the pan higher. Monkey did nothing and instead stared at her. Suddenly he raised his pale hands and two red orbs appeared.

"To kill you."

Jodi widened her eyes and immediately took cover behind the couch just as the orbs exploded in the spot she previously stood. She trembled as Monkey slowly approached her hiding place. Slowly realisation dawned on her. This wasn't Monkey! Jodi remembered Monkey as the boy who jumped around the buildings like an animal, causing trouble with everyone even with his own sidekick Doc Ock. He did it all with a cocky and arrogant way. He carried a gun but he wouldn't dare kill anyone. He was funny and often stumbled around the city. This Monkey was not the Monkey that Jodi liked. And that made her furious.

"You are not my MONKEY!!!"

We could say that this Monkey was very surprised to find the girl he was sent to kill fighting back. His other victim hadn't given as much as a struggle. This one was about to hit him with a pan. Jodi brought the pan hard on his face, sending him reeling backwards. Jodi held the pan in defence mode as she slowly approached Monkey who was lying on her floor. Next to him was her dog's dead body. Jodi gasped and stared at Monkey with renewed hatred. No one hurt her dog. It was the most prized possession she had beside her iPod. But her prized possession was killed and in the Greek way, a vendetta must be carried out.

"You are not my Monkey at all…" she whispered. She stood over the Monkey-impostor and raised the frying pan up high. She brought it down with all her might only to find herself stopped by Monkey-impostor's hand. She was immediately flung to the side, hitting the wall in the process. Her back started hurting like crazy. She couldn't reach her weapon as the fake Monkey had kicked it away from her.

"Now stay right there, Jodi Dammends. Your death is about to become more painful." smirked Monkey-impostor. He reached into the trench coat's pocket and drew out a large diamond. To Jodi, it seemed to swirl with all the colours of the rainbow. She gazed at it for a while longer before looking back at the fake Monkey.

"Soul Gem!" he yelled. The gem glowed its colours and a beam of light shone out, hitting Jodi in the chest. She yelled in pain and arched backwards. The fake Monkey did nothing but stare with a grin plastered on his face. Soon, the beam ebbed back into the gem. Jodi gasped and fell to the ground.

"Ai na gamithis malaka. Elpizo o alithinos Monkey na se scotosi…" Jodi whispered. These were her last words. Monkey-impostor frowned. He was a killing robot, not a translator. He placed the Soul Gem in his pocket and got out his mobile. He placed the numbers in and raised the phone to his ear. A smooth voice came up from the other end.

"Ah, Robo-Jack. I expect the girl is dead and her soul taken?"

"Yes, boss! Two down, one to go!" replied Robo-Jack happily.

"Good, good. Well don't make Alexandra Jacqueline Reon wait. We need that last soul. Don't forget to leave your mark."

"Done deal boss." grinned Robo-Jack and closed his flip phone. He stared at the dead girl and placed his hand on her limp body. He crushed her spine and throat, making it look like she died from strangulation and leaving a mark for the police to identify. Just to make sure he pulled a couple of red hairs from his skull and dropped them on the body.

"We mustn't keep Alex waiting…"

BTW Pip is my dog! Also I've got three people sketched out. They are Curt, Chase and Harry. Who do you want to see?

The last words Jodi uttered were Greek. They translate into: You mother-fucking idiot. I hope the real Monkey kills you…

What? I would say that! She is my OC after all.
