Subject: Chapter Three: The Affected (First Person, J.T.)

When my cell phone rang I turned down Billy Joel's "The Stranger" and picked it up. Amanda was on the other end...

“Hey, J.T.?”

“What?”

“Tell me, are you acting more like your MSTing SI than usual?”

“Specifically...?”

“Have you grown draconian wings and a tail, or could you kill a god?”

I hadn't yet... But then, part of Jay's royal blood was the ability to grow his Zeojin apendages only when he desired... I remained silent as I stood up and shed my sleeveless shirt. The first thing I noticed was a change in my proportions from slightly overweight to Ranma-esqe... I focus and moments later was rewarded, or punished, by growing wings...

“J.T.-kun?”

“How did you know?” She sighed.

“Let’s just say Dalton just got a whole Hell lot more interesting...”

"'No Shit, Harlock.' Listen, Voyles, use the No-Air technique if you have to, but get to the mall. I have a feeling that's where we'll find our answers..."

**==

When they arrived at the mall, they were wearing long coats, obviously there to hide their Saya-jin attributes. I had to smile slightly and thank Insanos for me having thought out the Zeojin species slighty better than the Saya-jins obviously had been.

"Tay. Amanda... Or should I now call you Mrs. Apeface?"

Amanda snarled at me, "Do and I rip your intestines out..."

"Since you two took so long..."

Tay interrupted, "I might be a druid, but niether of US know teleportation spells."

"Actually, I flew here, but while you were on your way I checked out Flashback... The dagger you liked was still there."

"What do you mean?"

"I mean that wasn't the same dagger..."

At that point, my cell phone started to ring, so I answered to hear the melodious voice on the other end. When She'd finished, I slipped my cell back in my pocket and started toward the door.

"Hey! Where are you going?"

"France. She's in France. Check on Joe and Alex. In fact, check on everyone. I'm going to France."

As I walked out the door to the back parking lot and started for the woods I had landed in, I could hear it dawn on Amanda, "France...? That where Star's on vacation... Does that mean..."

Tay finished the thought, "We're not the only ones affected?"
