You may, or may not, know this but I recently deleted the content of this story to start again because I had fresh ideas and felt I'd missed things out and rushed things. Chapter One has not changed at all so you don't need to re-read it, unless of course you want to or you never read it in the first place ;)

Its here! The sequel to Escape. Hope you enjoy this as much as the prequel :) All rights still belong to the almighty Richard O'Brien

"Ella, we're here" Titan shook the sleeping blonde girl awake.

"Transexual?" Ella mumbled, rubbing at her eyes and yawning.

"Yes, my darling. Transexual" Titan grinned and pulled her up to her feet.

"Finally..." Ella sighed and leant against him, still trying to fight the tide of sleep that still threatened to wash back over her and engulf her into its treacle deep depths.

"Whenever you're ready, my sweet" Titan whispered, stroking her silky hair.

Ella pulled away from him and brushed off her suit, squinting at the shiny metal walls of the ship and shifting her hair back into its place. Titan stooped to refasten the buckle on his boot and paused.

"Whats this?" He asked, narrowing his eyes and lifting up a piece of plastic with wires dangling from it.

"Nothing" Ella quickly pushed it out of his hands and wrapped her arms around Titan's neck to distract him.

They shared a kiss before leaving the ship. Ella stumbled down the steps, trying to take everything in as she went. The sky was a deep black, sprinkled with stars as bright as diamonds. The moon was huge. So big that Ella thought it could be a planet on its own. Titan breathed in the air around him and closed his eyes, basking in the feeling of being home.

"I was destined to be here all along" Ella said finally. She spoke the truth; her father came from Transexual, making her half alien.

"We'll stay at my old house. Come on" Titan held out his hand and Ella took it.

They started to walk, Ella still in bewilderment of the beautiful planet. There were still people mingling about. They were dressed scantily and sexily, making Ella feel slightly embarrassed to look at them. It seemed that everyone they passed was beautiful with toned bodies, all with bizarre hair styles. Some took acknowledgement of Titan and inclined their heads towards him. Titan seemed in his element; striding confidently through the dim streets, Ella trotting along beside him.

It didn't take long until they arrived at the old Vitus home. But they're hopes of living there were tarnished; the doors and windows were boarded up and pieces of furinute were strewn without care across the tangled lawn.

"Whats happened?" Ella gasped.

Titan ignored her, rage threatening to take over him. He went to the front door and started to tear away the wood. He was strong, making the task not very difficult. Ella pulled at him, trying to stop and comfort him.

"Get off me!" Titan yelled.

Ella stumbled back and stared at him. Titan gave her a quick look before continuing to break in. Then suddenly there was a bright beam of light, shining directly on both of them. They ducked and shielded their eyes with their hands.

"Stop what you are doing and freeze!" A stern male voice boomed from a distance.

They did as instructed and waited. The light eventually disappeared and the sound of shoes tapping down the path could be heard. A chubby, short man with a black moustache, tweaked at both ends, came striding towards the two. He was dressed in the same outfit as Titan and Ella, only the material was velvet and the colour was a deep red. It didn't take a genuis to tell that he was important.

"What do you think you are doing?" The man demanded to know.

"This is my house and I want to get in!" Titan growled.

"Titan, please - calm down!" Ella begged.

"Ladies such as yourself should speak only when spoken to!" The man said pompously. Now it was Ella's turn to get mad.

"You sexist pig! How dare you? I have every right to-" Ella was cut off by a sharp slap across the face.

"Hold your tongue!" The man sneered.

Ella looked up to see why Titan hadn't tried to help her, or fight back. Two more men, dressed the same way, were holding him back.

"Take him away" The official man ordered.

"Titan!" Ella screamed as her lover was dragged away.

"You, missy, can come with me! I should think the Queen will very much like to see you..." The man gave a horrible laugh.

Not wanting to risk any more abuse, Ella simply, and reluctantly, followed the stranger. He lead her to a scarlet and gold carriage, drawn by huge black horses. It looked like something out of a fairy tale, only more sinister and less inviting. Ella climbed in and sat down on the plush red seats.

"At least tell me your name?" Ella asked.

"I am General Pisces" He replied.

"Like the star sign?" Ella wondered out loud.

"What?" General Pisces said confusedly.

"Nothing..." Ella mumbled and looked out of the window, hoping that no harm would come to her, or Titan, where ever they were going.
