Hydrus walked into the room that contained multiple screens and a microphone."I told you not to add anything in MY game!"

Ophiuchus spun around in her chair. "But now it's more interesting with the swapped teams. Don't you think?"

"No! Now we have to keep track of team colours instead of elements! You weren't supposed to add anything!"

"Whoopsie. It's already done. Nothing you can do. Plus, someone might forget their team colour and walk in the wrong room."

"Ophiuchus... just don't temper with MY game anymore? Alright?"

"No promises."

"Saggi! I'm really glad to see you again but you're suffocating me," said Cancer.

"CANCY! I'm so glad you're safe. I was worried about you! Leo and Aries were tormenting me a lot!"

"Yeah. Let's do all this emotional stuff later.
Right now we need to find a red room," said Taurus.

"Hey, Taurus, you have a little something on you," said Cancer.

"Where?" asked Taurus.

"There." Cancer pointed to Aquarius who's arms were around Taurus' waist.

"Taurus is here. Now I can protect you. I won't fail this time," promised Aquarius. Then they started walking.

"What do you mean this time?" asked Sagittarius.

"Libby," replied Aquarius. "The monster thing was about to stab me but he jumped in the way. Then a strong wind blew me to the other end of the hall. Later, I went back to see if he was still alive and his body was gone!"

"That must of been terrible," said Taurus (not sarcastically for once.)

"I'm just glad that I can protect Cancer," said Sagittarius.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA PROTECT ME? NO WAY! I'LL BE THE ONE PROTECTING YOUR SORRY ASS!" said Cancer.

"Uhhhh... is that Moncer?" asked Taurus.

"DUCK!" Aquarius and Taurus ducked. Cancer threw three shurikens at a new type of monster. This one was like an ant except it was twice the size of Cancer and it was made out of metal. Then Taurus swung her scythe and tried to decapitate it but all she did was leave a scratch.

"These ones are stronger," said Taurus.

Aquarius run forward and stabbed it in the face. The blade bounced back.

"What? I can't even leave a scratch!" said Aquarius. The ant tried to squash Aquarius with it's leg but he jumped out of the way.

"OUT OF THE WAY!" the other three zodiacs moved out of the way as Sagittarius shot a bunch of fireballs at the ant. It screeched and fell over, then it disappeared.

"Wait. So how come our weapons aren't very effective against the ants yet I can chop up steel monkeys and other steel animals?" asked Taurus.

"Maybe Hydrus can control how strong the steel is. Like maybe the ants have more layers of steel," said Cancer.

"That's a possibility," said Aquarius.

"Come on. I do not want to be stuck in these hallways tonight. Especially now that the monsters are stronger," said Taurus.

"So... we're green right?" asked Sagittarius.

Cancer sighed. "Saggi it's a good thing you're not on your own. You'd be screwed."

Libra was walking around in the maze. He wanted to find his friends. The collar messed up his emotions. It made him want to kill the people closest to him. His target was Capricorn.

Libra walked down a hallway and detected motion. The new power that the collar gave him made him run faster. He turned around the corner and threw a knife.

***

"LEO!" Scorpio pushed Leo out of the way and the knife flew past them.

Leo turned around. Libra faced him with his glowing white eyes.

"It's funny how Hydrus doesn't want us to go crazy because of the power that's supposed to go to our heads, yet he gave Libra lots of new power," said Virgo. A knife skimmed the side of his head.

"I know you like making fun of Hydrus, but there's a time and a place," said Scorpio. Team green ran away as fast as they could.

***

"Poor Libby! He doesn't deserve this!" said Virgo who was sitting on a bed. Leo and Scorpio were on their beds too.

"At least we found this room. I'm scared he'll be waiting for us when we come out," said Leo.

"Nah. He'll probably move on. How much longer until nighttime?" asked Scorpio.

"There's a clock right there," said Leo who pointed to a clock above the door. "Looks like the others have an hour."

"Wait, are there washrooms here?" asked Virgo. A door appeared on one of the walls. Virgo got up and opened it. "Hey look. It's a washroom." Then Virgo walked in and shut the door.

"I hope no one else dies. At least I can protect you guys," said Scorpio.

"Yeah. Wait what were the groups again?" asked Leo.

"Taurus, Aquarius, Cancer and Sagittarius. Gemini, Pisces, Aries and Capricorn. Me, you and monkey."

"So everyone is with their boyfriend or girlfriend except me?" asked Leo.

"Well, Capricorn isn't with Libra," said Scorpio.

"Why did they put everyone else with the people they love? Don't they want us to suffer?" asked Leo.

"They want us to watch our loved ones die."

"Oh shit. That's cruel!"

Virgo walked out of the washroom. "I'm back!" Then he sat on Scorpio's bed and kissed her.

"BLEHHHHH!" Then Leo pretended to throw up.

"You just wish your little ram girlfriend was
here," said Virgo.

"Shhh! Don't bring that up," said Scorpio.

"It's fine. Aries is strong. I know she'll be fine," said Leo.

"The thing that worries me is, I don't want to fight Libby. He's my best friend, I can't kill him," said Virgo.

"What about Aquarius? Isn't he your best friend too?" asked Scorpio.

"Nah. Libby is my best friend. And so is Capricorn. Aquarius is my rival, we compete over Libby!" explained Virgo.

"Why can't we be friends, why can't we be friends~" sang Leo.

"I know what you mean. After being through so much, I don't know if I can kill any of my friends," said Scorpio.

"I hope the others are alright. We can get Libby back, I'm sure of it!" said Virgo.

"I'm going to spend the rest of my time looking for the others," said Leo.

"He just wants his girlfriend. Hey, Leo, do I look like her?" asked Virgo who curled his index fingers and put them on top of his head.

Leo facepalmed. "First of all, Aries is pretty, so she doesn't look like you. Second of all, she doesn't have ran horns you idiot! Third of all that doesn't even look like ram horns!"

"Aww the lion misses the ram. How cute," taunted Virgo.

"Say that to my face, VIRGIN!"

"MAIDEN!"

"VIRGIN!"

"MAIDEN!"

"MONKEY!" said Scorpio.

"Whatever. I'm going to sleep," said Leo. Then he put the pillow over his head to try to block out all the light in the room.

"HI-YA!" Gemini swung her mace at a monster. It was shaped like a human, it didn't have a face, and it was covered in black goo. These monsters came in various different colours.

Gemini twisted her mace around in it's stomach. The monster stepped back and screeched. Then it swung its clawed arm forward. It would of hit Gemini if a lance didn't block the attack. Capricorn swung her lance and cut off the monster's head.

"These monsters are getting real strong, real quick!" said Aries.

"ARIES!" screamed Capricorn. Aries turned around. Another goo monster swiped its yellow claws at her and scratched Aries' arm. Pisces stabbed it with his trident, then Aries swung her sword with her other arm and chopped it's head off.

"Here. I can heal you!" Then Pisces placed his trident by the deep scratch in Aries' arm. Aries hissed as the wound started to close.

"Thanks. It hurt like hell though," said Aries.

"Ten minutes until night time," said Hydrus.

"Let's go!" said Gemini. Then they ran forward.

***

Team blue found a room five minutes before night time. Gemini and Pisces were cuddling in their bed.

"I'm so glad you're here. I missed cuddling you," said Pisces.

"I missed being cuddled. You're so warm and cuddly!" said Gemini.

Aries pretended to gag which made Capricorn laugh.

"Stop being jealous over there!" said Gemini.

"I can't help it. I really... I can't even think about him," said Capricorn.

"Aww, I can cheer you up!" said Aries.

"NO!"

"Wifey~"

"NO!"

"Marry me!"

"STOP!"

"My love for you will never stop!"

"AHHHHHHHHHHHH!" screamed Capricorn in frustration. Aries, Pisces and Gemini were laughing at Capricorn.

"Aries! How dare you propose without getting on one knee!" said Pisces.

Gemini pointed her finger at Aries. "Shame on you!"

Aries got on one knee, grinning like an idiot. Capricorn rolled her eyes.

"Wifey!"

"God, you're worst than Virgo!" said Capricorn.

"What? But he's your bestie! I'm your wifey!"

"Why does everyone always flirt with me?" asked Capricorn.

"Because your reactions are the best. You get all flustered and stuff," replied Aries.

"I wonder how Virgo and Aquarius are taking Libra's death," said Pisces.

"Virgo actually helped me get over it a bit. He promised that my kids and his kids would be best friends or whatever," said Capricorn.

"That doesn't make sense. Much like Virgo," said Gemini.

"I wonder if Libra is aware of what's happening. Or is he like, sleeping?" asked Gemini.

"I'd say he's there. There's no way he's completely gone," said Capricorn.

"I miss our crazy adventures. I'll admit, I even miss everyone fighting and throwing sparkles everywhere in that house," said Pisces.

"It's officially night time." Then the lights turned off.

"If we get out of here, we have to go on a vacation or something," said Gemini.

"Definitely!" said Pisces.

"I feel like there's something on me," said Capricorn.

"Don't worry, it's nothing."

"AHHHHH GET OUT OF MY BED!" shrieked Capricorn. Aries laughed so hard she fell off the bed.

"Nice going clumsy!" said Gemini.

"Thanks! I try," retorted Aries.

"You try to fall off beds? That's concerning," said Pisces. Aries face palmed while all four of them laughed.

Gemini closed her eyes. "Let's go to sleep now."
