MEC: Hey mah peeps! Long time no see!

MED: Cali, what was with the yay-many-month break?

MEC: Well, there WAS school, and in the summer, my computer crashed, I lost the completed file, finished it again, copied it to a disc, deleted it from the old computer, and found out that it never got copied! Plus, there was the complete lack of time and numerous vacations.

MEP: Owch. Poor thing.

MED: And another thing: What the heck was that 'Mah Peeps' thing?

MEC: It sounded funny!

MEP&MED: (Roll eyes)

MED: D.C.!

The Basement Of The Cafe (Again)

"So, everyone clear on the plan?" Ryou asked.

Everyone nodded.

"Good. Let's-"

Ryou never got to finish his sentence. A giant silver grasshopper busted down the wall and scooped up Kaimeria. After it gentley placed her on its back, next to another figure that was veiled in shadow, it left.

Everyone stared.

"Umm... Was that part of the plan?" Pudding said.

"What do YOU think?" Mint snapped.

"I dunno. I didn't pay attention."

The Park, Where Predator and Destroyer are about to be annihilated by a cockroach.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

"It's the end!"

"But I never got to see Paris!"

The cockroach drew evercloser. Tart laughed like a maniac. The streetlights fizzled out. Oh, and a family of fieldmice were settling down for dinner. But that's kind of irrelevant.

"Tart!"

A giant silver grasshopper stood a few yards away. A shadowed figure sat on it, holding Kaimeria (You could see flashes from her turquiose hair) in its arms.

"I have her. Go back."

After Shadowthing said that, the grasshopper turned and, in a silver flash, teleported away.

Tart scowled. In another flash, him and his cockroach teleported away too.

ExPredator and ExDestroyer stood still, paralyzed by fear.

Slowley, ExDestroyer took a step forward. "It's safe to move now."

ExPredator took a step forward. "I'm gonna go home..."

"Me too."

Each one spread their wings (Scarlet pheonix for Destroyer and silver unicorn for Predator) and flew away.

Somewhere. You will find out where later, but I don't want to tell you now.

"Mmmmm..." Kaimeria blinked.

I'm in a bed... She thought. I'm in a bed that's not mine... In a room that's not mine... My mouth feels like I just ate a handkerchief... My wrists and ankles hurt like they've just been tied... And why does the back of my skull hurt as if someone just whacked me with a frying pan?

She got up and went over to a window. A beautiful scene of Earth and the stars greeted her.

I'm not on Earth anymore... I'm in space...

She looked around the room. Ceiling-to-floor bookshelves were filled with books about foriegn languages, genetics, astronomy, chemistry, geology, biology, marine biology, microbiology, and a lot of other sciences. (A/N: Hah! Guess whose room she's in!)

There is something familiar about this room... Something I can't remember... I can feel it, but I can't really remember it... I remember being here before... but it feels like a dream... A dream within a dream?

She looked up as she heard footsteps (Silent, but she could hear them with her keen dragon hearing) coming to the room. The door opened to reveal a shadowed figure.

"Welcome back, Dragon Princess. Welcome back, my love!"

MEC: Ooohh! SUSPENSE!

MEP: Why did you let me get nearly killed by a cockroach?

MEC: I'm the Allpowerfull Authoress! Nothing bad's going to happen to you on my watch!

MEC'SWatchAlarm: Paintball! Paintball! Time for paintball with Predator!

MED: Wow, that was ironic.

MEP: (Runs away screaming)

MEC: What? I'm not THAT violent...

MED: Uh, yeah, you are.

(Screenview switches to Predator, who is still running)

MEP: Hi... people... did... you like... this... chapter? Please... give us... your... comments! We... heart... mail! Maybe...I'll... be back... by... next... chapter!
