*yaaaawnnnn*

I suppose I should get up really, I...

Hey, what are you doing here? How can you...?

eeek....

<enters with his bottle of Crown Royal secured from SHAKES, still walking gingerly from injuries>

Hey JBL. Just the calm before the next storm, eh? Have a drink with me while I get caught up with these reports. It wasn't supposed to happen like this DERNIT. I'm supposed to be well nigh infallible. This crisis really sucks.

Yeah, I suppose they could use my help with the ticks or those weird necklace thingies but I'm going home to the asteroid. You know, the thatch roofed cottage I call the SUDL. I'm planning to build a little memorial garden. It'll be nice, a floating, intricate crystal of ice and a spectacular flame to honour those two kids.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN SOMETHING JUST HAPPENED TO BEVIS?

<Runs with Lolita to the barracks area to investigate.>

He's gone nuts.

What about the security recorder footage. Nope whoever it was we can't make it out from the data.

Sounds like he knew who it was though.

TL, bring Bevis in here. Maybe I can bring him around. <Sprinkles a light dusting of snow on his face>. No, he's catatonic. Let's get him up on this cot.

This is not good.

Another LWer down? Sprock! It's a good thing you two were here.

TL, I know you're hurting right now, but we need your intellect. I don't think we can get through this without you. And you too, Rockhopper Lad. The Penguin Colonies may be the key to winning this.

Come on, help me bring Bevis to the infirmary. Jailbait Lass, start running a search. There has to be a reason why Bevis has been targeted. And do some research on Vee's enemies too. While you're at it, run searches on Reboot, Quislet and Kid Marvel too. All these LMBPers have either been abducted or injured or something, and there may be a connection.

Well so much for going home to lick my wounds .

And I mean figuratively lick my spiritual wounds, not literally lick my physical wounds, though that would be a neat trick considering where they are.

Drat. Double-post. Oh well.

Jailbait Lass, send out a general alert. Reboot's missing, Bevis has been attacked, Quislet's stuck at giant size, Disaster Boy's lost his powers, Kid Marvel's been turned into a body, the Emerald Empress is dead, Caliente and Frio are missing in action, and the Weird Sisters and Banshee have disappeared.

At least we've recovered Vee and Abin, and EDE is sade after all. But at this rate, the LMBP could disappear entirely!

If you can literally lick your wounds, TL, my hat's off to you. You'd need to be pretty flexible to do that.

Huh, you know, if you WERE able to do that, it probably wouldn't matter if the licking didn't heal your wounds. At least you'd feel GREAT while doing it

On a positive note, one of the eight necklaces have been found, only seven more to go!

I'll contact the Emperor Penguin and ask him dispatch the ships. The Penguin Fleet is one of the finest in space.

*snooooore*

Okay, I pulled myself back together enough for someone (don't know who) to trigger my full reformation after I turned myself into energy to short out the ship's shields and let people teleport in and out freely.

Even though the only symptom was a new costume, I will not be trying that again in a hurry. And no-one seems to be willing to tell me how long I was out.

Um have you guys noticed the skies are red... and it appears that Bevis is asleep.

Transmission from Imperial Palace, Penguin Colonies, Planet Houston, from the Emperor Penguin himself:

The Gentoo and the King are en route to Legion World. Two hundred troops are on board. They will assist your friends in their hour of need. Emperor Penguin out. Be brave, my s...<Rockhopper Lad ends transmission before the others can hear the Emperor's last word>.

I can just see it now - Tamper Lad accidentally swallows Gingold and gets a terminal case of...Rubber-Neck!

The skies are red? And i only just discovered where those tick-things came from...

It might have something to do with what happened to an old and dear friend of mine...called Jeem Rehtu

What happened to your friend, LAM. It might be helpful to know.

He ventured upon a mysterious island which was said to be forbidden to outsiders...Jeem was drawn to a particular rock formation in the shape of a giant circle...and then was used as a host for one of the vile beings that resided within...

*Yaaaaaaaawwwnnnnn*

Ooooh, stretch.

mmmmm, I feel gooooood. It's good to be back, it really is. Everything looks so shiny and new and just ready for exploring. It's all so familiar and yet...

Ah, so, tell me everything about what's going on. Fill me in, give me all teh details. Let me know all about the fun that's happening right know. I want to know exactly how I can..... help. Heh.

Me? Oh no, I'm fine. Absolutely fine. Dandy, in fact. I don't know what came over me before. I must have... fainted, maybe. Something else else like that. There wasn't anyone else there at the time, not as I recall, oh my no. It was just a funny turn or something. Mmm-hmm, yes.

So, tell me what i need to know then babies.

(grabs lucien lad by the shoulders, shaking him roughly) who are you and what have you done with Bevis????

answers now! or i start shaking you by the throat.

Curiouser and curiouser, DB.

Shall I bring out my Fischer-Pryce Li'l Evil Genius Truth Serum and Surgical Interrogation Kit?I've been dying to try those worms that crawl into the nasal sinuses.

i don't know, who's turn is it? did i get to do the last interrogation or did you?

let's see...

there was the Daxamite terrorist that i made cry like a baby...

but before that was the Khund you drove insane....which made the interrogation useless but great fun.

and you got to do the Carggite spy ring...which i think counts for at least 6 or 9.

Me? Nothing wrong with me. I'm just perfect and ready to go out there are show the world exactly what it's been missing. Something else else fabulous, something fun, something.... interesting. Probably involving pointy things if I have anything to say about it.

Eh? Interogation? Oh now I really don't think anyone wants to do that, now do they? It's make such an awful mess everywhere. Besides what makes you think people just so unutterably unglamarous could possibly persuade someone as incredibly fabulous as I to actually tell you anything? Hmmmmmm?

Of course, if you're going to behave like that then there's only one thing for it.

(Lucien Lad quickly drops DB to the floor with a kick to the jaw with an immaculate boot heel and throws a handful of glitter into Tamper Lad's face temporarily blinding the evil genius and causing him to cough uncontrollably. Meanwhile lucien Lad casually sets fire to the command centre and skips out into the night not to be seen for at least nine or ten hours)....

*insert sinister music as required*

Ack Ack Ack, fire sinister music... ooooh blinded by glitter. This is a most inauspicious moment.

Fire, fire, fire!!! JBL be a doll and put that out while I go out and look for Lucien Lad. After that pull the Bevis/Lucien file and put on a pot of coffee, I have a feeling it's going to be a long night.
