*<3 Thank YOU <3*

Thank you to everyone that came out Saturday night! To the person that left the digital camera with the scandalous pictures, thank you especially.

The Trance Avengers are proud to report that around 2am LeoHawk descended into the lair of the Squid, that deep dark hole within the earth thats filled with icky creepy crawlies. Taking the Form of The Hawk, Leo explored the Evil One’s lair one cavern at a time. He fought many lengthy battles with lower henchmen of many forms and shapes until finally he made it to the Squid’s inner most sanctuary, where he is said to reside on a throne made of Negatrons, and where he holds the Golden RCA Cable of Truth and Power. Form of Hawk burst into the room ready to do battle !Kaa! Kaa! Kaa! only to find…the room completely empty…and the Golden RCA Cable of Truth and Power unguarded. He also noticed…a strange sound (Boom Boom Boom). Using his Hawk Hearing, he expanded his senses Boom Boom Boom Chicky Chicky Chicky Woosh Boom Boom Boom…slowly the sounds became to take form…the form of…Psytrance! Dun Dun Dun! The Evil Squid’s Lair was directly beneath the party spot! But where was the Squid himself? Form of The Hawk swooped up the Golden RCA Cable with his beak and was about to make his escape when his HawkHearing picked up the slithering sound of squid slubbering across the cold damp rock floor. Form of TheHawk flew into a dark shadowy corner of the cavern and camouflaged himself into the walls only seconds before the Squid toppled through the cavern doors.

“Nothing is lost…nothing is lost…everything is changing into something else,” said the squid as he squibobbled across the floor.

“Huh?” said Form of the Hawk, dropping the Golden RCA Cable of Truth from his beak.

“Waaaaa!!!!” said the Squid, watching the Cable fall to the floor, and the Hawk appear from the shadows. The Hawk flew down to the ground and took the shape of Ready to Do Battle Leo.

“YOU!!!!!Y-y- -…-yoooooooooooo!! Ooooo! Oooo! Ooooh! Whaat..in…the…fuck…is happpeeening to meee??” exclaimed the squid as he squirmed and swerved back and forth, “Colors are changing and flowing together! I see… I see…….me!?!??????? What am I? What am I doing here? What are you doing here? You?? YOU!!!!!!!!”

LeoHawk stood. Thats it. He just stood and stared into the….increasingly dilated pupils of the Squid. He was Confused. He took a step towards the evil Squid. The Squid gasped, “OMG WTF??? Why did you just double in size? Wait…wait….now your shrinking again….mwahah your so small…so small and tasty…..wait….oh no…now your getting big again….ohhhhh noooooooo!!!!!! ”

LeoHawk was now Seriously Confused. Granted, he was not nearly as confused as the Evil Squid, but still, Confused is Confused, you know. He reached down onto the floor and picked up the falled RCA Cable. The Squid continued to wallow across the floor, alternating between whimpering and…well….curling into a ball and Super Whimpering.

Now at this point, there is something that needs to be told about the Trance Avengers. They are a fierce terror inducing team of evil fighting super hero’s. They are tall and strong. The ground trembles at their feet. The sky cracks open on their command. Time and Space themselves bend to flow with the will of the Trance Avengers and their awesome power of Trance. But really….deep down inside their very souls….the Trance Avengers are just like you. Human Hippies from San Francisco. And no Super Hippie can walk away from a Person In Great Need (or a Squid, as the case may be). LeoHawk sighed and carefully approached the quivering Squid, placing a hand on his slimey tentacles. The Squid reacted fiercly, jumping in response to the touch, and curling itself into a tight ball before melting over the ground once more.

“Squid,” said LeoHawk, “Hey Squid….common now…what happend to you? You are the great arch nemesis of the Trance Avengers! Many times you have eaten our trance, flooded our lands, and destroyed our blinky black lights. Now I am here to finally face you and….ah…its a bit…well you know…anti climatic.”

What came next will forever be written in the tombs of Trance Avenger History. The Evil Squid told Leo his Master Plan of Doom and Destruction, sure to wipe out all Trance Kind Forever. LeoHawk listened in horror, to the details of the evil plan (for it was truely evil indeed). The Squid had planted the seeds of Doubt and Greed into the speakers ath the party…and on his command, the seeds would burst, infecting everyone, turning us against each other, until we would squabble about the most mundane things, unable to communicate with each other, and unable to throw Trance Parties ever again. Well the Squid’s plan was going according to plan. The music at the party had started, and the Squid, in disguise, came to the party with his Seed Activing remote control, ready to do harm….when he was met at the door by a beautiful smiling face, asking for $20. Well Evil Squid’s all you all know get everything they need through being evil, and have to use for money. Instead of being turned away and throw onto the street….the door folks welcomed the disguised Squid into the party anyway! Then…someone offered him a beer…..and then….some punch. And then well….after the punch things got a little wierd for the Squid. He began to sway on the dance floor, then…to stomp his tentacles to the sound of the music…the Evil Squid was…he was…DANCING!!!! When the Squid realized what he was doing, he began to be filled with doubts about himself, and his purpose in this world. He ran from the party, escaping into him evil lair for solace…where no solace could be found. In fact…things were getting weirder and wierder by the minute…LeoHawk took pity on the Evil Squid, and began to assure him that in an hour or two…he would be feeling just like his regular evil self once again…but as he turned to leave and return to the party victoriously with the Golden Cable…he turned back and saw the Evil Squid, all alone, shivering in the corner. Now there is no Trance Avenger in this world that would walk away from a being in need…even if that being did have a long history of trying to destroy parties and life as we know it. But…missing a Secret Society set was a big deal for LeoHawk…so…he devised a solution. Wrapping the Golden RCA Cable of Truth and Power around himself and the Squid, he called upon the Cord’s magical powers…and stopped time! Really! He Did~ You didnt feel it at the party? When everything and everyone froze??? Well it happend, thats for sure!

For the next hour, LeoHawk consoled the Squid…sharing smokes and stories…calming him down a little at a time….until the Squid began to, as we like to say, “get it together”. Well after an experience like that, you can imagine how LeoHawk and the Squid bonded. The Evil Squid was evil no more, realizing that all his evilness came from being the youngest in a family of 23 squids, and therefore never being allowed to listen to the music he wanted to listen to on the one tiny transister radio that their family could afford. LeoHawk and the Squid became friends….and when the Squid was ready, LeoHawk started the flow of time once more, and the both of them returned to the party together.

So in the end….we lost an hour of our party…but we got back the Golden RCA Cable of Truth and Power, and we made a new awesome friend!!!
