On Sereni-tree:

Soul is off babbling incoherently to himself. Safe insists on everyone being quiet as he talks to his unseen imaginary friends.

Deuce cocks an eyebrow at Ace. Ace spins her index finger in circles near her ear. Deuce nods gravely.

"Well!" TheRealMe exclaims. "It seems that things haven't changed too much since we've been gone!"

Mai awakens to a sizzling sound and the smell of something being roasted. She opens her eyes.

"Good! Mai awake, now! Dinnertime soon!"

Mai looks around to see Ervin the Yeti. He has demolished some tables and chairs and used them as fuel for a fire on the floor. He reaches over to pull out a spit stabbed through a chunk of meat and tosses it in Mai's direction.

"Mai eat!"

Apparently, Ervin prefers his meal raw and bloody and his fangs tear chunks out of the haunch that he has.

Mai cautiously sniffs. It smells rather good.

"Taste like chicken!" Ervin offers helpfully.

Mai turns over her sample and notices that its back side is covered by a scrap of charred scaly skin.

"What is it?" Mai asks.

Ervin stops abruptly, the things blood dripping from the corners of his smiling mouthful of fangs. "What? Ervin don't know. But it put up hell of a fight!"

"ERV!!!! Oh I am so happy to see you! How did you find me?"

*rushes over and gives the yeti a huge hug, getting saliva, blood, and mystery meat dripped on her arm in the process.

"Oh it doesn't matter what it is I could eat a horse I'm so hungry.

Erv looks at her a bit shocked "Erv never kill pretty horseys!"

"Oh um, of course not. Sorry."

*mai closes her eyes and takes a bite.

In the expansive piffle-pony ranch aboard Sereni-Tree:

TheRealMe laughs. "How hard can it be? After all, Bride6 rode in a race atop one." He lightly kicks his heels against the flanks of the teal-colored pifflepony upon which he is sitting.

The creature starts bucking violently, twisting this way and that. TheRealMe hangs on for dear life, being tossed about like a rag doll. Suddenly, he is flung loose into a high parabolic arc that splashes him in the middle of a nearby lake.

Ace frowns. "So you say that Number 6 could ride one of these things?"

Deuce nods. "Yep."

Ace inclines her head toward the lake, where TheRealMe has just dragged himself to shore. "Then what's HIS problem?"

"Well, Bobby Sue has been a decorated equestrian since she was a girl, and competed all over the world. I'm guessing that he's never ridden a horse before, much less a pifflepony."

Dripping wet, TheRealMe limps up to the Brides. "Okay, time for plan B".

"Seriously," Safe says helping TRM out of the water, "I HEARD something, you have to listen."

TRM offers Safe a hairy eyeball of question.

Safe stops and almost drops TRM back into the water. "I am not drunk... well, mostly not... drunk that is. I think."

Safe looks around, taking stock of his surrounding. "I think I saw those once before." He says pointing at the Piffleponies. "In an old timey movie. Twilight, I think it was. Chock full of sparkle-pony vampire things. If I remember correctly, the theatre was picketed by actual vampires and werewolves citing defamation of character."

**Back in the common room, Jake7 is still trying various methods to wake Soul up. The latest is a bucket of ice cold water thrown in his face. Nothing happens. Disgusted she turns to ask her fellow crewmates for help, only to find she's alone in the room. Again.**

Oh, come on!! This cannot be happening again!

**she activates her comm**

Where did everyone go? Are you still on the 'TREE? Where is SimonWho when we need him? I've tried all sorts of things, but I can't seem to wake up Soul!! I need help!

"Erv, thank you. You are a true friend. Now I'm going to need your help. Without comms we are pretty much in the dark, so I've been experimenting with another way to "talk" with the Sereni-Tree."

"Erv help anyway possible, but space ships don't talk... "

"I would agree, but we both know that the Tree isn't any ordinary space ship. What we have to do is close our eyes and concentrate on a crew member and try to get them to hear our thoughts. I tried it earlier and thought I felt a sort of tingly sensation in my head, but I was so tired I couldn't keep it up. So, maybe now we can do it at the same time and boost the signal. I know it sounds a bit crazy, but it's all I've got at the moment."

"Ok, Erv try think hard."

*within moments both Erv and Mai are zoned out concentrating on the Sereni-Crew.

Bobby Sue whispered into the ear of her pink piffle-pony, the last in the line, "Ready, Prudence?"

It responded with a charming neigh, underlaid with the tinkling of bells.

On the floor of the Sereni-Tree common room, TheRealMe smiled. It was simply a matter of knowing the names of each of the piffleponies, and asking them politely to help. So the piffleponies were clearly intelligent creatures, in addition to being both powerful and annoying.

"Mount up!" Bobby Sue called out as she hopped on the back of Prudence. Ace, Deuce, and TheRealMe followed suit.

TheRealMe turned to those who would stay behind. "Get Jazaf's metal sculptured tree out of storage and decorate it! We will return with Mai before Christmas is over. Or at the latest, to celebrate the new year."

TheRealMe whispered, "Let's go Penitence!" One after another, the piffle-riders jumped into the teleportation vortex before them.

JAZAF


"I know how to wake him up!" Jazaf mentions. He pulls a knife from seemingly nowhere and stands at Soul's feet. "Lemon me!" The asked for lemon lands in his hand. "Thank you very much." He then proceeds to cut the lemon in half and leaves one half on Soul's face.
"Nothing like the strong smell and sour taste of a lemon to bring someone to their feet." He beams at Mai. "Unless you have smelling salts."

After nearly an hour of concentration something strange begins to happen. Suddenly a vague image begins to shimmer in front of Mai's eyes.
The figures become clearer and for a moment it seems like she is standing on the 'Tree amongst the crew. Within seconds the image is dying, but not before Mai reaches out and taps Jazaf on the shoulder.

"Holy Rocking Chair, Batman!!!!! Erv, wake up it worked I saw them! I saw the crew of Sereni-Tree. Either I'm hallucinating or we might actually have a chance of finally getting home!!!!"

A claw at the end of a huge furry hand taps Mai on the shoulder and then points. "Mai looks!" Ervin says. Mai turns to see a small band of piffle-pony riders.

TheRealMe dismounts, doffs his cowboy hat, and bows. "Hello, Mai. Hello Ervin. We have come to take you home."

On her piffle-pony Precious, Ace grabs the hilt of her katana. On Prudence, Bobby Sue draws a large pistol with each hand.

"We've got company!" Atop Pickle, Deuce points with one of her own katanas.

TheRealMe scratches his chin. "It seems that we have run into some local welcoming committee."

Bobby Sue starts taking shots with her left-handed pistol but tosses the other to Mai with her right hand. "Here, sweetie!" Each accurate shot takes an opponent down. Bobby Sue draws a third pistol.

"They're surrounding us!" Deuce calls.

"Right!" says TheRealMe. "Of course there's a plan, Mai, I'm working on it right now! Let's see..."

"Work FASTER!" Ace yells as she maneuvers her pifflepony to expertly hack at a nearby enemy with her katana.

"Yes!" TheRealMe helps Mai up on a spare golden colored pifflepony. "Mai, you ride Honey. We're going to make a break for it. Bride1 and Bride2, use your blades to carve us a path back to the portal we popped out of. Bride6, keep shooting those behind to discourage pursuit. Ervin..."

Ervin the Yeti grabs a handful of five or six opponents, lifts them over his head, and with a terrifying howl tosses them into a mob of their fellows.

"Sure, that works." TheRealMe mounts up. "Ready? Let's go!"

TheRealMe, Mai, and the three Brides ride off on their piffleponies, galloping hard to reach the dimensional portal that leads back to the Sereni-Tree. Ace and Deuce go first, slashing with their blades to clear a way. Bobby Sue is last, turned completely backwards on Prudence and blazing away with both pistols at their pursuers.

"Wait!" calls Mai. "What about Ervin? We've left him behind."

"I know," says TheRealMe. "That's a part of the plan I'm still working on."

"The furball's too big for a pifflepony!" says Ace as she slashes ahead of her again.

"Trouble ahead!" warns Deuce.

Surrounding the portal is a large band of opponents, ready to repel them.

But the problem is solved. The piffleponies tear into the opposition with fierce violence, tearing them apart with sharp teeth and pounding hooves. Just before impact, Deuce launches herself high into the air, spins in a few somersaults, and lands behind the opponents, slicing. It is over quickly. The piffleponies stop amidst the carnage, and their remaining riders slide off their backs to the gound. "Piffleponies of the Apocolypse!" TheRealMe whispers. Bobby Sue is still shooting at other opponents.

TheRealMe reaches out a hand. "Now to save Ervin! Brides, stand ready!" A dimensional portal opens right next to him while simultaneously, another opens far in the distance where Ervin is running to catch up. Ervin comes through it to stand next to the piffle-riders, but soon the opponents chasing Ervin start to pour through as well.

With a clench of his fist, that pair of portals shut, cutting one opponent in half. "Ugh!" TheRealMe comments. The three katanas of Ace and Deuce slice up the others who came through with Ervin in short order.

Now, let's get back home! One by one the group heads through the portal to appear in the common room of the Sereni-tree. The last through are Ace, Ervin, and TheRealMe. TheRealMe closes the portal.

"Well, that's over," he says. "Now, it seems that we are just in time for New Years Eve! Let's celebrate Mai's return!"

From the floor of the Sereni-Tree's common room TheRealMe stirs and lifts his head a bit. He senses a presence that has been absent for a long,long time. He opens one eye. It scans the room.

TheRealMe smiles. "Cozen? My alter ego? TheUnrealMe? Why, that's just... very, very nice."

TheRealMe returns to his alcoholic stupor, thinking that he dreamed the whole thing.

Hmm. Until one of us learns how to actually pilot the 'TREE, we'd best stay away from altering our current course.

Wanted posters could help, but I'm worried that anyone who remembers any of us speeding away from Ruckus could ID us and hold us responsible for it's ultimate demise...

Let's go check on DinoLand and make sure everything is good there and think some more about what we can do to find our missing crew mates...

With a groan, Soul comes to on the floor in the common room.

"Lemons...why do I smell lemons?"

He gets up slowly and looks around, and the room is empty.

"Why does this keep happening?"

He fishes behind the bar for a root beer and settles down in one of the chairs, absently kicking at Ebo's nest under the pool table.

**mai and jake7 turn around and make their way back into the common area. Both are surprised to see Soul sitting at the bar**

SOUL! Oh, it is so good to see you!

Once again, we've gone through some kind of time warp and everyone disappeared again!

Have you seen anyone else around?

I keep trying to figure out what's going on, but I've just got no ideas.

The last thing I remembered before the time loss was that Cozen was in my room planning some kind of mayhem, but nothing appears to be wrong according to the cockpit controls...

How do you suppose we can get the others back?

Mai and I were just heading to see if the Yeti and dinosaurs were here and OK.

"I'll join you, then."

Soul tosses out the empty bottle, and then almost as an afterthought grabs another bottle and slides it under the pool table.

"Just in case."
