"Don't be too bummed about the poster," Show Pony tried to comfort her. "At least you don't have a 'X.' Now that would be bad. I remember my first real poster. They used an old one from the Killjoy franchise."

"Yeah. I t had an 'X' on it. I thought Ricky had died." Cola's face was slightly pained.

"It was so cute! He ran to my room sobbing, and jumped on my bed. I came out of the shower to find him clinging to my clothes, yelling 'I'll kill Korse and that Isodo NewsAGoGo bitch!' You shoulda seen his face when I came in! He was all white and staring at my face!" Pony leaned over to Violet Rose and whispered "until his eyes wandered down my nakedness to my--"

"HEY! You were wearing a towel."

"Yep. I was in a towel...until you took it off."

"So...." Violet felt uncomfortable hearing their conversation. "Do the posters say our real names?"

"No. My red 'X' one does, though. Same for all the fake 'X' ones. But we are celebrities. It's not like it's revealing our identities. Plus, thanks to the fake 'X' posters, most people think we're dead."

Pony was right. Even most BL/ind. workers thought they were done. Only S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/Ws and upper level Dracs knew that the Fabulous lived, but what did they know about Violet?

"Shouldn't you be in bed?" Cola's voice shook Violet out of her trance. "I know the posters can be scary, but you can't stare at them all night. It's been an hour. You need sleep."

"Oh. I'm never sleeping again, so...."

Pony leaned over to Cola, and whispered something in his ear. Most likely the events of earlier that night. Cola's face was wide with shock. He whispered back to Pony, then turned to Violet.

"So, since you're 'never sleeping again,' wanna help me get ol' 8-Legs ready?"

"8-Legs?"

"She's the main trans-am. She's the one with the spider, and the words 'vaya' (A/N: VAYA is Go in Spanish...I think) and 'bulletproof' on it. I still have to clean your blood out of the seats." I ruined his car. Great. Just great.

"Sorry...."

"It's fine! You just have to help me clean it out. Then I'm gonna go on Drac patrol. When I'm done, we're gonna hop to Zone...3, I think?"

"Oh. I forgot about that...Can I come with you on patrol?"

"You sure? It's kind of dangerous."

"Yeah! I wanna do something!"

"Well, I guess you did take down a bunch of Dracs...but first we gotta wash 8-Legs."
