Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, welcome to the second fan fiction in the Madz & Starlow series! This will reveal Dr. Toadley's "nemesis", Dr. Mario! Let's start this fan fiction, shall we? I take suggestions and constructive criticism, so please don't be afraid to ask me something. Oh, I forgot, onto the fan fiction!
Madz and other penguins have some differences. One talks, others don't. One hovers and cures people rarely, the others can do neither. One main difference is penguins love the cold, but Madz loves colds, and sick people. What if she was having a sick day? That's where it starts off…
Madz walked through the Toad Town Mall with coughing and the occasional sneeze. She saw Toads looking at her and kids pointing at her. "Hey look, Mom, it's a sick penguin!" said one young Toad. The mom looked at Madz and walked away with her child. She looked at her for a moment before leaving and said, "Go home or something, my kid shouldn't get sick!" before walking away. With the citizens of Toad Town not wanting to get sick, they tried to avoid her like she's an aggressive dog or a monster. "Well, it's time to see the…" She was interrupted by a couple coughs, so she decided to stop talking.
When she got to Toadley Clinic, Dr. Toadley's intern saw Madz. "Madz, it's you again!" she cheered with delight. "But you look…different. Are you ok?"
Madz sniffed and looked tiredly at the pink Toad, and answered, "I'm fine, I'm just here to see the sick people," As she took two steps, she felt hands grabbing onto her and lifting her up. She looked behind to see the intern was holding her. "You're seeing Doctor Toadley, I don't want any other people catching your sickness," she said in an assertive way. The penguin could tell in her voice, there was a hint of worry. She really cared about Madz, and wouldn't want her to get any worse.
When she got into the fortune telling room, something was different. Dr. Toadley was arguing with Dr. Mario, with Birdley watching on his owner's shoulder. "I got eight degrees by watching medical dramas, and even starred in my own show, Mario M.D.," Dr. Mario bragged. Annoyed by his bragging, the other doctor countered with, "Did I get degrees by watching shows? I didn't. It's called medical school, something you never went to!"
The intern sighed, and glanced at Madz. "Doctor, Madz is sick. Can you help her, or at least diagnose her?" she asked.
Dr. Mario answered, "Sure, she has common cold, I know she does. It was in Episode 32 of my show, where someone got amnesia along with a cold, so he thought the hospital was his home,"
Dr. Toadley looked at his crystal ball, but before he even saw what came on it, he focused on the other doctor. "Are the writers creative? Yes they are. Still, I will never do act on a medical drama!"
Birdley flew onto the crystal ball right after Dr. Toadley went up to Dr. Mario. They started arguing again, something that became one of the intern's pet peeves. She sighed and said to Madz, "Oh well, it looks like you should go home and rest. I'll walk you home, Madz". While holding Madz, she left, with the penguin whispering, "Episode 32? Yay, Sickie Episode!" However, no one but Birdley saw what appeared on the crystal ball: Madz with the chicken pox.
When the intern got to Fawful's Bean 'n Badge, Fawful ran to the counter, looking like he had the same disease as Madz. "Is there a bug going around?" she wondered. Starlow and Midbus came to the counter also, looking like they caught Madz's sickness. "I'll take that as a yes…" the intern answered. Fawful sighed and said, "It has the spreading so fast," Midbus nodded in agreement, while Starlow looked down, feeling a little blue.
This proves Madz doesn't have a cold, nor her family. If Madz seems as sick as the rest of them, she must be very contagious. However, the intern didn't feel anything wrong with her.
"Ummm, here's Madz," she responded as she gently put the penguin on the counter. "If anything goes wrong, then come to us," she added. She left the Bean 'n Badge, feeling very suspicious about what they really have. The intern hoped the two doctors would stop arguing so they could at least know what illness they caught.
What does Madz, Starlow, Fawful, and Midbus have? *Looks at description* Oh, uh oh…
I hope you like the fan fiction! It's not over yet, but I felt like I gave it a bad start. That's what I think, but whenever I do that, it's always a good story. I wonder if this is the same thing. If it isn't, then oh well, at least I put in some effort (flames are ok, because I've got firemen and tons of water! Seriously, don't do flames)
