Italics) Recap: There is a war-- the good Phases against the bad Phases. Phoebe was bored of being human so she wanted to 'get turned' into a Phase. Whoa.
*Everyone is standing at the bottom of a flight of stairs. (Not just the Gerbilzzzz Gang, but loads of other people too) Suddenly there are a laod of yelps and gasps coming from the doors at the tops of the stairs. Then silence.*
Hope) What just happened?
Glory) No idea, Italics?
Italics) I think... they all just got phasenated.
Glory) Bless you.
Italics) No! I mean they just got zapped with with whatever 'turns' them.
*They wait a bit more...

..............*
*BANG! THUMP! YELP! HISS! OUCH!... meow.*
Hope) What was that?!
Italics) Don't know...
*More waiting...*
*Suddenly the doors burst open and a load of teenagers run out. Last is Phoebe who does flips down the stairs.*
Italics) Show off...
Hope) So how was it?
Phoebe) Strange... I can't really describe it... it was like something was rushing at me...
Glory) Whats happened?
*She points to a bandage on Phoebe's wrist.*
Phoebe) One of the others, er, 'lost control'.
*She looks meaningfully at a girl with long black hair. She turns away with her nose in the air.*
Hope & Glory) Cat.
Phoebe) Yes.
Italics) So, what do you turn into?
Phoebe) This!!
*She grins and slowly begins to shrink. Her ears move onto her head as the become curved like a mouse. Her nose lengthens into a snout and her teeth grow like a rabbits. There is a rustling sound as a tail grows and in Phoebe's place there stands a...*
Italics) Gerbil?!
Hope) I think it's a great choice. Well done Phoebe!
*Italics starts laughing. How can a gerbil look indignant?!*
Glory) It's a great gerbil actually. There bigger than Mongolian Gerbils.
*Italics is still laughing. He stops laughing when Phoebe jumps up and bites him on the arm.*
Italics) Ooooooooow!!
*Phoebe phases back, but keeps the ears, tail and claws of a gerbil. She looks satisfied.*
Phoebe) That's paid a very old debt.
Glory) So, a Great Gerbil! That's cool!
Hope) Yeah!
Phoebe) Thanks! They're usually not so big, but as I'm a Phase, my animal is bigger than usual.
Italics) I like the tail. It's fluffy.
Phoebe) Maybe the site of blood has made him go funny.
Hope) *Looking at Italic's bite wound* No, I think he's just a bit random. Wow Phoebe, you have sharp teeth.
Phoebe) Thanks!
Girl with black hair) I heard that great gerbils carry some nasty disease! Better keep away from her! *A group of girls around her sneer and giggle.*
*Phoebe gives her an exasperated look.*
Phoebe) Jetta, apparently everything carries some form of disease. But I'd prefer that than hair balls.
*Jetta goes pink and stalks off. The group follow, trying to look mean while trying not to laugh.*
Phoebe) Well, she could be a problem.
Italics) ooh! Stuff is happening! Dun dun dun!
