"They're not answering my texts," said Capricorn. Her and Libra were in their car, still parked in the Wendy's parking lot.

"Where are they?" Then Libra called them.

"Hello. This is Scorpio."

"Hi Scorp, where are you guys?" asked Libra.

"HEY! DON'T USE MY VOICE YOU-"

"Shut up! I'm on the phone," said Scorpio.

"THAT'S NOT ME!"

"Of course it is! Where were you guys again?" asked Scorpio.

"DON'T TELL THEM!" yelled Aries.

"AHHHHHHHH! WHERE ARE YOU TAKING ME! PUT ME DOWN YOU-"

"Sorry about all the background noise. Where did you say you guys were eating lunch?" asked Scorpio's voice. Libra hung up.

"I think it's safe to say they caught Aries and Scorpio," said Capricorn.

"HOW? I was sure that they'd have to break the rest of us out!" said Libra.

"Where are we going to go now?" asked Capricorn.

"I don't know. We have to look for them," said Libra.

"Where?" asked Capricorn.

"I have no idea. Let's just get a hotel and think of ideas there," suggested Libra.

"There's no hotel in this town. We'll have to go to the next one," said Capricorn.

"Alright. The closest town is," Libra searched it up on his phone. "Half an hour away."

"Okay." Then Capricorn and Libra drove away.

"Mmmmhmmmmph mmmmmhmmph mmmmhmmmm phmmmmm hmmmph hmmmm!"

"Oh my god! Even with a scarf around his mouth, Virgo is still annoying!" said Taurus.

"I can't believe you guys told the hooded guy to tie a scarf around his mouth," said Aquarius.

"I can't believe we didn't do the same to you," said Leo.

"Hmmm hmmm hmmmmm, hmmmm hmmmmm hmmmm, hmmmm hmmmm hmmmmm hmmmmm hmmmmmmmmm~" said Virgo to the theme of Jingle Bells.

"Mmmmmhmmmm hmmmmph hmm!" said Hydra.

"Can we just get soundproof headphones or something? All I can hear in my head is people humming," said Gemini.

"Hmmmm hmmmm hmmmp," said Sagittarius.

"Oh don't you even start Saggi!" said Cancer.

"Fine. I'm bored though. I have an odd urge to throw sparkles at someone," said Sagittarius.

"You're right Sag, that is odd," said Taurus.

"Excuse you! Sparkles are fabulous! Ugh I can't strike a pose with my hands tied. Hey hoodie guy? Can you come untie my hands so I can strike a fabulous pose?" asked Leo.

"I know right! Sparkles are almost as fabulous as me," said Sagittarius.

"You are unworthy so say that word!" said Leo.

Sagittarius stuck out his tongue. "Well I'm saying it anyway, peasant!"

"Excuse you! I'm the king of fabulousness and you're the peasant to the fabulous world," argued Leo.

"Let's just let Leo be delusional over there," said Sagittarius.

"FIGHT ME!"

"I'D FIGHT YOU IF WE WEREN'T TIED UP!"

"WHY ARE WE YELLING?" asked Cancer.

"And here I thought you guys were locked up and depressed because you were unable to speak to each other," said Pisces.

"Nope. Maybe the hoodie guy wants us to annoy each other or something. Like he wants to build tension," said Aquarius.

"But... what point would that serve?" asked Taurus.

"I dunno, it's a wild guess," said Aquarius.

"Mhhhhh phmmmmm hmmmphhmmmp."

"Virgo we can't understand you. There's no point talking," said Gemini.

"MHM. MMMM. PH. MMMMMM. HMMMM-"

"We. Can't. Understand. You. Stop. Trying," said Gemini.

"Poor Virgo. He wasn't THAT annoying," said Pisces.

"You were only in the same room as him for what? A day?" asked Cancer.

"Yeah, I think it was around a day," replied Gemini.

"Haha you know nothing of what kind of torture he put us through," said Taurus. Then the door opened.

"Who did you catch today? It doesn't matter because Scorpio is going to get us out of here anyway," said Aquarius.

"It's funny how you say that." Then he dragged Scorpio in the room.

"You caught SCORPIO?" asked Gemini.

"Witchcraft!" said Cancer.

"How the heck did you get her?" asked Pisces.

"They must have knocked her out in her sleep or something," said Taurus.

"Actually, that woman snuck up on us in our car and knocked us out before we could leave. Why do Hydra and Virgo have scarves around their mouths?" asked Scorpio. Then the hooded guy finished tying Scorpio up, removed the scarf from Virgo's mouth (because he suffered enough), and walked away.

"Why won't he take the scarf away from Hydra's mouth?" asked Pisces.

"Because she told us lots of information and they want to keep her quiet," said Leo.

"Yay I can sing again!" said Virgo.

"Virgo, you weren't causing trouble for our friends while I was gone, were you?" asked Scorpio.

"I-I uh... n-no way! I would never!" said Virgo.

Taurus chuckled. "Hey, at least there's one benefit of her being here."

"Now we'll finally get peace and quiet!" said Cancer.

"Wait, Scorpio? You said when "we" were in the car. Who else was with you?" asked Gemini. Then they heard footsteps approaching.

"LET ME GO YOU PIECE OF SHIT! I'LL RIP YOUR HEAD OFF AND BURN YOUR BODY! OR I'LL HANG YIU FROM A TREE! OR MAYBE I COULD ROAST YOU OVER A FIRE! OR MAYBE-"

"Aww they got Aries too?" asked Sagittarius.

"Shut up or I'll make you walk on that leg," said the hooded guy. Then he dragged Aries through the doorway and tied her up beside Taurus. Then he left.

"ARIES!" shouted Leo.

"LEO!" shouted Aries.

"VIRGO!" shouted Virgo.

"Did you hurt your leg?" asked Aquarius.

"Yeah. It's healing but I still can't put pressure on it," said Aries.

"I can't believe he caught both of them. I was sure they'd be the ones to break us out," said Pisces.

"At least we can rely on Libby and Cappy!" said Aquarius.

"Yeah. Cappy will get us out of here," said Taurus.

"Or we could try to summon Moncer again," suggested Sagittarius.

"Nah. He tied my arms up extra tight. But all I do is get a little angry, it's not that bad," said Cancer.

"Sure. We'll go with that," said Gemini.

"Huh?" asked Cancer.

"You're more than a little angry," said Virgo.

"Why can't I burn these ropes?" asked Aries.

"You can't use your powers in here," replied Sagittarius.

"I need to get my revenge on that witch for sneaking up on us. Let me at her!" said Scorpio who tried to break free.

"Her name is Ophiuchus. We'll explain all our theories to you guys later," said Pisces.

"Hey, at least I found Hydra!" announced Aries.

"Yes. We all did," said Virgo.

"Virgo. Did you or did you not write that book?" asked Scorpio.

"Virgo wrote a book? When?" asked Aquarius.

"Yay! Scorpy figured it out! How was it?" asked Virgo.

"How dare you get kidnapped before you tell me it was you! Now I can't hug you while I tell you how honoured I am that you wrote a book about me," said Scorpio.

"Aww it's okay Scorpy! I love you!"

"I love you too Virgo!"

"I LOVE PIZZA!" said Gemini.

"I wonder what Cappy and Libra and doing now," said Aries.

***

"DRIVE FASTER! WE CAN'T GET A TICKET!" shouted Libra. Police sirens wailed behind them.

"WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL?" asked Capricorn.

"WE DON'T HAVE DRIVERS LICENCES BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE BIRTH CERTIFICATES!" screamed Libra.

"OH YEAH. WELL WHEN WE GET HOME WE'LL ASK SCORPIO TO MAKE US FAKE BIRTH CERTIFICATES!" shouted Capricorn.

"WHY DIDN'T WE DO THIS EARLIER?" asked Libra.

"BECAUSE WE DIDN'T THINK WE'D BE CHASED BY THE COPS!" said Capricorn.

"WHAT DOES THIS BUTTON DO? IT HAS SAGITTARIUS' SIGN ON IT," said Libra.

"LET'S FIND OUT!" Capricorn pressed the button with the Sagittarius symbol on it. Then they felt something pop out of the side of the car.

"Wait, something is attached to the sides of the car? Is that missiles or rockets?" asked Libra. All of the sudden fire shot out of the rockets and the car sped away at an uncontrollable speed.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

***

Capricorn and Libra arrived at the hotel an hour ago. Libra was relaxing while Capricorn went to get some drinks from the vending machines.

"Hey, I'm back!" said Capricorn holding up two cans of Root Beer.

"STOP! THAT'S NOT ME!" screamed Capricorn who ran in the room holding two cans of Fruitopia.

"GET OUT OF OUR ROOM YOU IMPOSTER!" screamed the first Capricorn.

"LIBBY! SHE'S THE IMPOSTER! I SWEAR!"
screamed the second Capricorn.

"Woah. Two Capricorns. Uh... how do you feel about Virgo?" asked Libra.

"Ugh he's pretty annoying but I suppose he's not that bad," said the first Capricorn.

"Sometimes it's nice to have him around because he's funny,  but he really gets on my nerves," said the second Capricorn.

"Uh... who calls you wifey?" asked Libra.

"Aries!" said both Capricorns at the same time.

"Stop pretending you know me and my friends because you don't! You only know that because you were there because you were impersonating Gemini," said the second Capricorn.

"How DARE you accuse me of impersonating MY friends! You're the imposter so just admit it!" growled the first Capricorn.

"Oh yeah? That's not my exact eye colour," said the second Capricorn.

"Yes it is. I should know because I was the one who had these eyes since I was created, unlike you!" said the first Capricorn.

"Both of you have identical eyes," said Libra. Then the second Capricorn jumped on the first Capricorn. They both dropped their drinks and they started fighting.

"Uh... uh oh. Which one is my Cappy?" asked Libra.

"I AM!" said both Capricorns.

"Wait! I have one last question!" said Libra. Both Capricorns stopped fighting and looked up.

"Why do me, Aquarius and Virgo torment you all the time?" asked Libra.

"Because the three of you pretend to annoy me,
but I know you guys care about me deep down. We're a very close group of friends," said the first Capricorn.

"Because the three of you are little shitheads who like picking on me for some reason," said the second Capricorn.

"You're the imposter!" said Libra before kicking the first Capricorn.

"Finally you've come to your senses. Now let's get out of here!" said the second Capricorn.

"Libby! Stop! She's the imposter! I can't believe you chose her over me. After all this time I thought you knew me better than that. I guess not," said the first Capricorn wiping tears from her eyes.

"Capricorn never cries in front of others." Then Libra took the second Capricorn's hand. The second Capricorn stuck her middle finger at the first Capricorn before they ran away. They didn't get far before Libra was surrounded by black mist.

"Libra! Let her go you witch!" spat the first Capricorn who ran out of the room.

"Stop pretending you're me! He already chose me. It's time to show your true colours witch!" said the second Capricorn.

"Libra! I'll save you!" Then the first Capricorn kicked the second Capricorn in the stomach. The second Capricorn slapped the first Capricorn in the face. The first Capricorn punched the second Capricorn in the face. The second Capricorn kicked the first Capricorn in the knee. The first Capricorn tried to wrap her hands around the second Capricorn's throat but a shield of vines protected the second Capricorn.

"Aha! Exposed!" said the second Capricorn. Then she tried to grab Libra's hand and pull him out of the mist but it wouldn't work.

"Finally. It's time to reunite you guys with your friends," said the first Capricorn in a different voice. The Capricorn was surrounded by black mist just like Libra.
