"ROMEO TAKE ME SOMEWHERE WE CAN BE ALONE- wait how does the next part go?" asked Aquarius.

"Like I'm telling you!" said Cancer.

"So. All we do is argue all day?" asked Sagittarius.

"SO ALL WE DO IS ARGUE ALL DAY- wait that's not how it goes!" said Aquarius.

Leo would have face palmed if he wasn't tied up. "IDIOT!"

"Yeah, that's about it," said Hydra.

"Well, we can't exactly get up and go for a walk," said Leo.

"Hey, when the hooded guy comes back, we should ask him to tie a scarf or something around Aquarius' mouth," suggested Cancer.

"I actually find him entertaining," said the hooded guy as he walked into the room with his newest prisoner and tied her up one chair away from Cancer.

"TAURUS!" screamed Cancer and Aquarius at the same time. Taurus had an eye that was swollen shut, her other eye was a black eye, her lip was busted open, her nose was broken and she had bruises all over her body.

"WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER?" demanded Hydra.

"It wasn't me. You can thank my lovely assistant for that," replied the hooded figure.

"Taurus, what did they do to you?" asked Cancer.

"She wanted me to tell her where the others are. I refused of course," said Taurus' weak voice.

"Tell your assistant not to beat them up like that. They're teenagers, not prisoners of war!" hissed Hydra.

"If they won't come willingly, then she'll do what she has to do. By the way I have your pills."

"Pills?" asked Leo.

"They make you not hungry and not have to use the washroom," replied Aquarius.

"How do we know he won't poison us?" asked Sagittarius.

"Because I tried one yesterday," replied Aquarius. Then the hooded figure walked around and gave everyone a pill. This time Cancer and Hydra didn't refuse.

  The next day, the zodiacs were packing their things. Some of the more softhearted zodiacs were shaken from hearing Taurus scream in pain for hours. Capricorn declared that they were going to leave and find somewhere safe to go.

***

"Okay, we have three cars and seven zodiacs. Should we go three, two and two or take two cars and split three and four?" asked Capricorn.

"Three and four. The more we split up, the more vulnerable we'll be. She's barely stronger than three of us combined, so maybe four of us can beat the cloaked figure," explained Aries.

"Okay, who's going with who? Virgo is coming with me so I can keep an eye on him," said Capricorn.

"Aww! But I want to go with Libby and Scorpy!" protested Virgo.

"You mean I'm not with Virgo? YES!" cheered Libra.

"We could still put you in the same car as Virgo," said Scorpio. Libra's smile faltered.

"Can I stay with Gemini?" asked Pisces.

"Yeah! I want to go with Pisces," said Gemini.

"Okay here's how it's going to go. Me, Virgo and Libra will go in car one while Scorpio, Aries, Gemini and Pisces are in car two," announced Capricorn. Then everyone got in their cars.

***

"Libby! Come sit in the back with me!" said Virgo.

"No way. I'm sitting up here by Capricorn," said Libra.

"Please Libby!"

"I should of put you with Scorpio," muttered Capricorn.

"Where are we going?" asked Libra.

"We are going to a hotel that's about an hour and half away. It just happens to be next to the police station too!" said Capricorn.

"Because the police are so talented at arresting a woman that can put them to sleep with black mist," said Virgo sarcastically.

"If they use the taser on her, then they can lock her up," said Libra.

"Ugh. Does the hotel at least have a pool?" asked Virgo.

"Yes, it does," replied Capricorn.

"What are you, a child?" asked Libra.

"Yes. I'm your child Libby! You're the dad and Capricorn is the Mom," announced Virgo.

Capricorn's face went red. "Seriously Virgo, act your age for once!"

Virgo crossed his arms. "But that's boring!"

"Do not make us pull this van over young man!" said Libra.

"Don't encourage him!" said Capricorn. Then she turned on the radio to listen to some music. Capricorn and Libra froze when they heard what song was playing.

Virgo grinned. "BABY PULL ME CLOSER~"

Pisces was driving, Gemini was in the passengers seat and Capricorn made Aries and Scorpio sit in the back where they couldn't cause trouble, or so Capricorn thought.

"Pass Cappy's car!" said Aries.

"Pass it! Pass it! Pass it!" chanted Aries and Scorpio.

"Uh... Capricorn warned me not to give into peer pressure," said Pisces.

"It'll be fine," said Gemini. Then Pisces sped up and passed Capricorn's car. They heard Capricorn blare her horn a couple of times. Gemini reached over and blared the horn back at Capricorn.

"So, we're going to get out asses kicked when we get there," said Aries. Then she grabbed onto Scorpio. "Scorpy protect me!"

Scorpio chuckled. "I'll see what I can do."

"Are we allowed to roam around the hotel at least?" asked Aries.

"I don't know, but Capricorn isn't going to stop me!" said Gemini confidently.

"Yeah. Even if she tells us not to, we'll still sneak out to the pool room, or maybe the dinning room," said Scorpio.

"Oh wait! I can't do anything anyway!" said Aries.

"But isn't sneaking out what got Leo and Sagittarius kidnapped?" asked Pisces.

"Do you want to sneak around or not?" asked Gemini.

"Well if you leave the hotel room I'm coming with you," said Pisces.

"There's still hope for us to corrupt him into becoming one of us," said Scorpio.

***

"HEY! HEY! YOU! YOU! I DON'T LIKE YOUR GIRLFRIEND~"

"Holy shit! Stop singing!" demanded Sagittarius.

"NO WAY! NO WAY! I THINK YOU NEED A NEW ONE~"

"Aqua, please stop," said Taurus weakly.

"AHHHHH THIS ISN'T THE MUSICAL OF AQUARIUS!" shouted Cancer.

"Uh oh. You activated moncer," said Sagittarius.

"Moncer?" asked Hydra.

"Monster Cancer," replied Leo.

"Oh."

"HEY, HEY, YOU, YOU, I COULD BE YOUR GIRLFRIEND!"

"SHUT UP OR I'LL RIP OUT YOUR TONGUE AND SHOVE IT UP YOUR ASS!"

"Wait! Is that Cancer speaking?" asked Hydra.

"No, it's not Cancer. It's Moncer," replied Sagittarius.

"Come on Cancer. Break free from the ropes and slap Aquarius. I bet you can't do it," taunted Leo.

"HEY, HEY, YOU, YOU, I KNOW THAT YOU LIKE ME. NO WAY, NO WAY, NO, IT'S NOT A SECRET~"

"I WILL HURT YOU!" then Cancer managed to break her arms free.

"Cancer! Untie the rest of yourself, then untie us!" whispered Leo.

"I kno-" the door opened. Cancer stuck her arms behind her back.

"I have cameras in this room you know." Then the hooded figure tried to tie Cancer back up but she punched him in the gut. "Ugh, A LITTLE HELP PLEASE!"

The cloaked figure walked in the room and smirked. "I have to let my powers recharge if I want to come back with new prisoners tonight. The others no doubt left if they were hidden in that house, so I have some searching to do."

"YOU WON'T LAY A FINGER ON MY FRIENDS YOU USELESS SACK OF MEAT!"

"Oh look. The cute one is getting aggressive. Talk like that some more why don't you," taunted the cloaked figure.

"I'LL RIP OFF YOUR HEAD AND I'LL BURN YOU BECAUSE YOU'RE A WITCH!"

"Now, now. That isn't a nice thing to say to me.
I'm not a witch, I have powers because I'm a constellation like you," purred the cloaked figure.

"What's your name?" asked Leo.

"I'm not telling," replied the cloaked figure.

"Ophiuchus," said Hydra.

"Hydra! Not another word!" barked the hooded figure.

"But... aren't you supposed to be the thirteenth Zodiac?" asked Taurus.

"I was, but I was rejected. Many humans on earth refuse to believe that I'm part of the Zodiac and adding me in there would mess up the dates and stuff, so it's easier for them to ignore me. That's why Cepheus, the king of constellations, ruled that I was officially not a Zodiac," explained Ophiuchus.

"Is that why you guys are doing this? For revenge?" asked Sagittarius.

"No," replied Ophiuchus. "My friend over here has a different reason. My revenge is the reason why I'm helping him."

"You can take off the cloak now that we know who you are," said Leo. Then the cloaked figure pulled down her hood. She had red hair which fell down her back in loose curls and brown eyes.

"That's not what she looked like earlier!" said Aquarius. "She had short black hair!"

"I'm a shape shifter. I can take whatever form I want," replied Ophiuchus. By now, the hooded figure recovered from Cancer's punch and started to tie her up again.

"Is that how you really look?" asked Taurus.

"I'm not telling-"

"NOPE! She takes that form a lot but she never lets anyone see her true self," announced Hydra. All of the sudden a bunch of black mist formed the shape of a hand and slapped Hydra.

"Do NOT speak of that!" hissed Ophiuchus.

"Are you guys dating or something? I'm talking about Ophiuchus and the hoodie guy," said Cancer who was back to normal Cancer.

"NOPE! You see, that guy over there is in love with-"

"DO NOT SAY HER NAME!" hissed the hooded figure. Then he tied a scarf around Hydra's mouth.

"Mmph hmmph mmmmph," said Hydra's muffled voice.

"I have to go help Ophi here find your friends. I'll see give you guys your pills later." Then Ophiuchus and the hooded figure left.
