Just then a cell phone rang. DB and Arenas each answered theirs simultaneously. "Gabriel?" answered DB. "Joaqin?" said Arenas into her phone. DB hung up and nodded toward Arenas. Twas her phone. The remaining JA members gathered around to listen to the conversation. "Joaquin, have you found something?...yeah....no...yeah....no..." Psnoo raised an eyebrow. "How much is she paying that guy?" "Okay," Arenas said, sticking her tongue out at Psnoo. "What's the address? ...what do you mean that'll cost me more? You do realize that witholding information from a federal officer...that's better. 670 Camino Real. Got it. Thanks, Joaquin, call me if you find anything else." She hung up. FF's eyes were wide. "So what's at 670 Camino Real? Huh? Huh? HUH??" "There's a guy there named Lefty who deals in the international black market for mojo. Joaquin says that if Lefty doesn't have the mojo, he will know who does." Just then DB's cell phone rang. "Gabriel?" she answered. "...yeah....no....yeah....no...." Psnoo pursed her lips. "Ah. So that's where she got it from." DB gave Psnoo a cheesy grin. "...well, where did you get that reading? The harbor? Like on a ship? ...a warehouse...okay, we're on it. No, I'm still here. ...I'm sorry, could you repeat that? You're not sure if it's not what? ...Oh, no, Gabe, that's just great. We're upgrading you when I get back, that's all I have to say." She hung up with an angry snort. "What is it?" asked BMTH. DB sighed. "Gabe got a mojo reading from down at the harbor but...but he's not sure if it's DJ's or..." "What?" asked HF. "What??" "Or Austin Powers'." There was a gasp from all! "H-How," stammered Iggy, "How could that computer possibly confuse the mojo of Don Juan deMarco with that of ..." her face grew sour, "....Austin Powers?!" DB chewed a candyette, embarassed. "I don't know. He's still being fine-tuned." "So," said DWR, "we can't be sure that the mojo at the harbor is or isn't DJ's." Arenas shook her head. "We'll have to check out both places. El Camino Real and the harbor. I'll take FF, Iggy, and BMTH with me. We'll head over to 670 and have a little chat with Lefty." DB nodded. "Then DWR, Psnoo and HF can go with me down to that warehouse at the harbor. We'll find whatever's there and bring it back here." "And everyone be careful," added FF. "Both of these tips could lead into a trap. You never know what the bats may be up to. YOU NEVER KNOW!!!" As the two teams headed outside to look for some transportation, DB pulled Psnoo aside. "Would you mind being my eyes on this adventure, Primera?" she asked her old friend. "You got it, mentor mine. It'll be just like old times in the Cantina. Or...a few months ago. However you want to look at it." DB checked to make sure her pistol was loaded and flicked her candyette butt out a window. "All right then, let's go find us some mojo."

OOC: Near as I can tell, it's CC, SS, and Sedoo in one group, DB, Psnoo, DWR and HF in another, and Iggy, FF, BMTH and me in the last, right?
Arenas glanced longingly at the interior of the villa illuminated by a flickering glow. If memory served, interleague play would be in progress in the States...
"Don Jua- er... Johnny! Are the Red Sox playing today?"
"Eh?" the faint grunt of a question was cut off by a sharp thwack to the back of Arenas' head.
"Don't encourage him!" FF hissed.
"Sorry. I just can't help thinking this might be the year," she mumbled like a good little brain-washed fan.
"I guess we'd better get Duke, Fred and Sands here first. Fred and Duke could check if it's valid product and Sands could get it with minimal fuss." Iggy shrugged, "Besides, we may need all the help we can get."
"That's realy optimistic," BMTH glanced at her mentor.
"So is the scene in there and that's why we're doing something about it."
Within seconds, Duke, Abberline and Sands were present and accounted for. Luckily, someone had had the foresight to imagine the Red Shark there as well. The group headed to 670 Camino Real was in business.
"Shot gun!" FF and Iggy cried, both jumping into the front seat.
"Are we following the bats again?" Duke asked, craning his neck to look at the squished back seat.
"Not this time. But I know where we're going. We've got GPS," Arenas held up her phone.
"Maybe we should have waited until after the trip before imagining the Johnny's here? BMTH asked from her squished position between the window and Fred. Duke jammed the Chevy in drive and dust flew in their wake. Arenas managed to fight the inertia and her comfy position between Abberline and Sands to grin at the sidekick.
"Nah, we never do things the easy way around here. You watch, someone'll get themselves captured before this thing is done!"
"So ah... where are we heading?" Duke asked.
"670 Camino Real!" FF yelled.
"Where is that exactly?"
"Well... we wanted that last left," Arenas squinted through the dust at her dimly glowing phone. There was a collective grumble, a squeal of tires and they were (finally) off in the right direction.

OOC: A) This is so great!! I love the Austin Powers thing!!! B) Err... what does OOC stand for? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ DB, Psnoo, HF, and DWR and all of their Johnnys jumped into DB's angel-mobile (In other words, her cool Mexican ride with "JA" painted on the side) and drove off to the harbor. "Are we there yet?" DWR asked innocently. "Not yet love," Psnoo said. "About 2 more hours." DWR groaned. She didn't always do that well on long car trips. "Are we there yet?" DWR said again, about five minutes later. HF eyed her evily, but DWR just gave a naive look back. The angels and Johnnys sat nervously in the car; to afraid of what would happen to Sedoo and Don Juan to say much. However, ten minutes later... "Are we--" DWR started again, until Psnoo turned around from the front seat, paintball gun out and ready to shoot. DWR closed her mouth. One hour and 45 minutes later, the angels pulled up at a large warehouse. "Thank Johnny!!" DWR shreaked, jumping out of the car, kissing the ground. "Alright loves," DB said, laughing at DWR's oddness. "Stick with your Johnny at all times. If you need help, or find something important, give a shout. Savvy?" "Aye!" everyone said. "Ok.. now let's look for that mojo!" The angels and their Johnnys walked in the warehouse. It was even larger on the inside as it was in the outside! They all split up into different directions. Sam and DWR went straight, and pretty soon came to a large pile of boxes. "In here?" Sam asked. "Nope," DWR said. "I don't think so. Don Juan's mojo is too valuble to put in a messy place." Suddenly, they heard a shout! "Angels!!! COME QUICK!!!!!!!"

OOC: And now I simply must ask why didn't we take that instead of the taxi? I didn't think my super power was 'Covered in puke on behalf of his fandom.' Are you holding out on me?

OK, I think I can contribute today... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ CC, SS, and Sedoo arrived at JA HQ by nightfall. Not expecting that to be their destination, SS and Sedoo were confused. "CC, you do realize this is JA Headquarters, don't you? Who's gonna help us here? The Angels are already out looking. Are we picking up someone else?" CC just smiled as they passed the gate. "This way." She montioned towards the Academy. "Oh, I see. We're picking up a sidekick... you're turning this into a training exercise, aren't ya CC?" SS asked, thinking she'd figured it out. "Nope. Follow me." The trio entered the Academy grounds. "Is the person you want we to meet here, in the Academy?" Sedoo asked. "Aye." "Really? Because I'm pretty sure that I've met all the sidekicks, and I know most of the Ang-" CC shook her head. "This person is not a memeber of JA." "Not a member of JA? But who- ?" CC replied with a sigh. "Sorry to be so mysterious about this, but it's more effective this way. Just follow me." She winked. And there they were at the door of DB's Cantina. CC opened the door to a seemingly empty room. Sedoo and SS looked around, but there was no one to be seen. CC walked to the bar. "CC, there's no one here. What's going on?" Sedoo was getting a little frustrated. "In there." "In where?" "There." She was pointing behind the bar and into the kitchen. "In the kitchen?" "Aye. Go on and see what you can find out. You're an Angel, go investigate." "Who's in the kitchen?" "Go and see." "Oh, alright... but this better be good after all this." "I think it will be." Sedoo shrugged her shoulders and went in the kitchen. CC and SS sat at the bar and waited. "Who's back there, CC?" "The cook." "Who's the cook?" "You mean you've never come in here? Not even since the Cantina became a historical landmark?" "No, not really." She said matter-of-factly. "Huh! Well, apparently Cook there is Don Juan's little brother, Don Todd." Just then they heard a loud shriek from the kitchen. SS got up to go after Sedoo, but CC stopped her. "Sit down... no doubt she thought he was her Don, back to normal." SS took her seat and pondered, "I wonder what Raphael and Jack are up to... Do you think they've found anything?" "One can only hope." CC smiled as she walked behind the bar and poured the two of them a drink. They chatted for an hour or so. "Do you think we should go in after her? It's been awhile..." SS seemed worried. "Nah... she's fine. No worries, mate. I imagine she'll be ready to go any time now." "I'm back!" They heard from the doorway. "And I've got good news and bad news and then good news again." Sedoo announced. "Start from the beginning, luv." CC winked. "Well, the good news is that Don Todd here is my love's long lost brother! The bad news is that he doesn't know anything about what's going on or what to do about it. But the other good news is that he'd like to help us!" "Not the answer I'd hoped for, but I'd say that evens out as good news! But I'm all out of plans... anyone?" CC replied with a frown. SS nodded. "Good thing I had a plan B." she smiled. SS told them the plan and it seemed the best thing to do under the circumstances. She gave her instructions. "We need to collect a few things. So let's head to the Angel's quarters. There should be a few still hanging around to look after things. Sedoo, you and Don Todd go see if you can get some chocolates from DBC. CC, come with me and we'll go see if LMM has some rose bushes we can visit." And off they went on their scavenger hunt. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wow, I've never been so prolific! Lol, too bad I'm not better at writing, or that might've been good!

**Im assuming this is BMTH, Arenas, FF, Me and our Johnnys correct?**
"Move over" sighed Iggy
"Im not moving over, you move over" nudged FF
"at least you two have room to move over" called out BMTH from her squished spot against the window.
"Im not complaining" Arenas called as she looked from Fred to Sands, each of them flashing a very genuine smile.
"Watch your hands.." Iggy called from the front seat, flashing a smile back at Arenas.
Duke looked around "alright, all of you quit your yabberin and tell me where to go now"
FF gave duke a nudge "Left"
Iggy shook her head "no.. its right"
FF looked at her "Right.. Left is right"
Iggy shook her head again "no right is right"
FF smiled "no, left is right, right is wrong"
Iggy rolled her eyes "no, if right was wrong, that would make left right, and left cant be right, because right is right"
The car was quiet for a few moments and then they all looked at Iggy.
BMTH and Arenas sighed "its straight" they said in unision.
Duke pulled the car over and looked at everyone "okay, who knows where theyre going?"
All angels and the sidekick raised their hands.
"Okay, lets put it this way, who has a map?"
*cricket chirp*
"OH OH OH... I have a phone" Arenas chimed it "it says right here... STRAIGHT" both Arenas and BMTH had victorious grins on their faces.
Duke smiled as he pulled the car back onto the road, "alright.. were coming up on an intersection, do we go left, or right.."
Abberline sighed "here we go again..."
"Left" called Iggy..
"Left is right" Said FF with a smile. Iggy and FF shared a giggle but stopped when they found that the rest of the group didnt find it funny, just as Duke was about to pull into the left, Arenas yelled
"no.. its right, you have to go right..." she looked up seeing Duke still going left "its right... right.... right... right... its RIGHT!" she yelled. Duke quickly spun around several times until he hit reverse and got into the right intersection, the spin off stunned everyone, and it was a quiet ride for a few minutes.
"Whats the name of the street again? wait.. wheres my case?" Duke said looking around.
"Iggys sitting on it" giggled FF "if she doesnt, she wont be able to see over the dashboard."
Iggy let off a sarcastic giggle before slipping it out from under her "its nice and safe right here" she said as she put it down infront of her.
"Camino Real..." said BMTH randomly, they all turned to look at her
"what?" asked FF.
"Camino Real..."
"what about it?" snapped Sands then offered a kind tight lipped smile.
"the name of the street is Camino Real" Arenas chimed in.
"OH" they all said, Duke sighed "there it is" he said seeing a sign that said 'Camino Real.. 1 3/4 Miles'
"here we go..."
