The plot bunnies got me once more. Such evil, evil things they are. Oh,
and does anyone think that it might not bode well for the characters'
future health that the bunnies forced me to borrow a book called Body Trauma from the library?

Blondi poked his head out from around the corner of the corridor for a moment before ducking back. "She's coming." He murmured to the large anteater standing behind him snickering softly. The dog shook his head at that. It was a good thing that people couldn't see his friend unless the anteater wanted to be seen. With that snickering, their plan would be blown in minutes if he could be seen and heard.

Antubis poked his head around the corner now, watching Brenda's progress down the hallway with the box from the local bakery. It was Stegman's birthday that day and Brenda had organized a party for him. Of course, there was the fact that no other doctor in the hospital liked Steg so the party appeared that it would be an exclusive one. The anteater and the dog weren't concerned about that though. Their attention was focused on the bakery box and the cake within. They were determined to somehow get their paws on it and wish Steg many unhappy returns on his birthday.

"Okay, you know what you have to do." Blondi said as Brenda drew closer. Oh, this was the perfect plan, the same one that had netted them ten hospital lunches once, and not the bad stuff that Dr. James fed people occassionally to poison them and bump up revenue.

As Brenda approached, Antubis stepped into her path. People might not be able to see him but they could definately feel him if they walked though his body and if he twitched his tail just right.... As Brenda's legs vanished into the area occupied by the anteater's body she shivered,
then suddenly tripped as Antubis twitched his tail. The cake went flying to the floor as the box slid out of Brenda's grasp, where a waiting Blondi caught it and drug it away to some better eating location.

'You know, you really could do better than Stegman,' Antubis said with a critical look at Brenda as he started down the hall after his friend. 'Well, maybe not really better but possibly at least someone who could fake being better.' Honestly, this one had to be mentally deranged to want Stegman for a lover. Just the thought of the hospital's nutty doctor naked in bed gave the anteater shivers through his fur coat.

A bit later, Antubis and Blondi were safely ensconced under Otto's security desk, frosting in both of their fur coats as they licked the bottom of the bakery box to get the last crumbs.

As Antubis finished off his part of the crumb licking, he looked up at the pictures on the security monitors. Otto was off helping Bobby Druse with something and the anteater thought it would be the perfect time to do a little looking around the hospital without wear and tear on his paws.
'So, what channels do you get on these?' he asked Blondi as he nudged a button on closest monitor with his snout.

'Try tunning in Camera 5." Blondi said with a snicker as he looked uo at his friend. He felt too full to move any more than that. "It's in the Female Physicians Shower. Dr. James put it in just last month."

The anteater reached out, nudging the monitor further. 'Does Otto watch that one very much?' He asked curiously.

"No, he would like to live a bit longer. Dr. James must have been having a mental lapse day when he put that one in." Blondi snickered slightly at the thought of Dr. James and that camera. If any of the female physicians found out about it, they would probably poke it so far down Dr.
James that he would never have to worry about having a colonoscopy again.

Antubis continued to flick through the various monitors searching for the right one. As he flipped, he shook his head as various nutty staff members and patients wandered across the screen. Suddenly, something, a small detain caught his attention and he motioned for the dog to come closer. 'Is that...'

Blondi'a eyes widened as much as dogs' eyes could. He had seen plenty of nutty things on the security monitors before but this was new.
"He has a gun!" The dog looked frantically around the room for some human who could help but there was no one. What were they going to do? There was an insane patient with a gun on the loose in Kingdom Hospital.

'Let's go!' Antubis wasn't one to wait for humans. He was sure that between him and Blondi they could handle one insane patient by themselves. Now if they could just reach him before he decided to start firing that thing! The two creatures padded off down the hallway as fast as they could go, vanishing into the wall. If they took a shortcut through the Old Kingdom, they might be able to get there in time before someone could get hurt!
