*Vibes smiles as she turns to gas*

Vibes: Van I can feel it, the focus is coming back!

Van: good...for you... dont k ow how long i can hold this! *he begins to ge red faced*

*Vibes floats off*

Vibes (thought): Better hurry this up, longer this takes the worse for Van.

*She wafts toward the others*

Vibes (psychic message): Everyone listen to me, you've all been corrupted and I'm here to make you all...you again!

All: really?

Vibes (psychic message): Shut your eyes and focus now, hurry!

*everyone focuses*

*They all return to normal. Vibes returns to the cell, her body slumped and weak*

Van: Vibes. Did it...?

* Alarms sound off*

Vibes: Yeah...it worked.

Van: ugh *flops over, his body looking deflated* good job....

*The team grab Vibes and Van, bringing them home*

Vibes: That's usually the bit in the cartoon when all the plates get smashed or whatever
