As the FEBlets awoke to the noonday sun of the first day of 1999 they noticed that one room in particular was extrememly quiet. There was so noise coming from C's room. Normally she could be heard singing, or streching, or playing... with one of the wrestlers.

"C!!??" Witka cried from the shower "Can I use your shampoo?...I'll take that as a yes."

Meanwhile, in the kitchen, Angel and Ribena were getting worried. C was never late for a meal, unless she was dying or in another state. They went to her room and on her unslept in bed was a note, with little letters cut out from the newspaper. They read it and raced to Mindwarp's lab.

In Mindwarp's lab

The FEB slowly filed in after searching the Arena from top to bottom. They were so shocked that not even the site of the Brood in their towels distracted Kat and Chibi (well, not for long anyhoo). Mindwarp sat down and re-read the note aloud to the FEB-

"We have your evil accomplice in our care. She has plagued us with suffering and has filled our lives with pain. We know her secret and fully intend to distort it and extort it to our liking. There is no ransom-The only way to see her again is to promise to send her to an institution far, far, far away. Consider yourselves notified!"

Mindwarp looked up to an ocean of perplexed faces, except for two fearful ones. Ribena and Angel motioned to Mindwarp to come over to them. As the FEB speculated as to who would commit such a heinous crime, Ribena quickly told Mindwarp C's secret.

"Um.. I have some... uh new information in this," Mindwarp stuttered." It appears C's old friends from before her FEB days would like to tell us her secret so that we can get the upper hand. Plus they feel we should know anyway."

"Well what is it?" Cried the FEB.

"I'll tell you," Witka spoke softly,"One thing first though, we're twins. But as you can see, we don't look alike. Now onto the second part. When we were 5 we built a tree house. C was putting on the roof....and a big gust of wind came up..she fell and hit her head. When she woke up something was different. Her personallity had spilt. She had the wild carefree side of 'C' and the calm, cool, normal side of..." Witka was cut off by a brick flying through the window. Before Mindwarp could read it Ribena snatched it away.

"Marvinetta," Ribena told the FEB, "That's the other side of her personality. We've been trying to find a way to put them back together..but to no avail. And I know who wrote this. Re-read it. Who does it sound like?" The FEB passed the note around. When the had all read it they looked at each other.

"RAVEN!" Cried the FEB.

"HE kidnapped C!?" Chibi screeched.

"The bastard!" Kat roared.

"Hey I have a plan!! Listen up!" Linzi jumped into the center of the group and quickly told her plan to the FEB. "And if it works out, C/Marvinetta will be back to normal..if it's possible. And we'll teach that whiny punk a lesson!"

"Yeah! Payback!" Gin grinned, cracking her nuckles
"Let's go!!" cheered Ami.
"Death to the traitors!" Gen cried.
