Forest Fire!
It was a normal sunny day at Jellystone Park. Yogi Bear and Booboo were asleep in their cave, while ranger smith and his daughter Elle were patrolling the picnic area in the park, to check if Yogi Bear had left any contraptions around, as Ranger Smith knew that Yogi would stop at nothing to at least get a Peanut and Butter jelly sandwich.
Ranger Smith also checked where Rachel was working afterwards, he was hard to admit it but Ranger Smith loved Rachel but didn't know how to show it, he was showed it through singing but that ended up with him embarrassing himself in front of the mayor and the civilians in Jellystone at that time in the park. When he and his daughter Elle arrived at Rachel's camp he noticed a note left by her cooking stove, it said that she had to go to town to collect some supplies as she was low on necessitates. Ranger Smith read her note and put it in his pocket, but the paper soon fell to the ground close to the cooking stove which was turned on...
Ranger Smith then thought to himself isn't it strange that there haven't been any reports of Yogi stealing a picnic today; he knew something was going on as by now he would be saying to Yogi that he shouldn't take people's picnics which he has told him over and over. Elle then said to Ranger Smith "Dad, can I go back to the hut my feet are sore, besides I'm tired as I didn't get much sleep last night from Yogi Bear..." however she couldn't carry on as Ranger Smith interrupted her, "What was Yogi bear doing last night? You better tell me or I will take your phone off you for two weeks!" Elle replied "I actually don't know all I heard was his voice and something about a new version of a machine they once invented that worked but got destroyed somehow" Ranger Smith replied angrily "Why didn't you tell me this before! It may not have been them sleeping in the cave it may have been dummies to think they are sleeping when they may not be!" Elle replied nervously "I didn't know they had made a machine before, besides I thought it was a dream, I was half asleep when I had to get a drink, when I heard Yogi's voice!" Her dad replied saying that she could go back to the hut. Ranger Smith then heard the sound of an engine coming towards a hill in the park and immediately started running, he knew what type of machine Yogi was reinventing, and it was the picnic nabber... However while all this was going on the paper next to the camp stove caught on fire...
Ranger smith soon came to the sight of Yogi about to test run an invention which was very similar but had a few modifications, Smith knew it would crash and stopped Yogi just in time, however another matter rose, he saw smoke coming from Rachel's camp and knew it was a fire. Moreover, another matter came into his mind where was Elle...?
Well, Elle started crying about how her dad had told her off while she was walking to the hut, she then stopped as she smelt something unusual. She thought she smelt smoke but thought she was imagining to herself, then she looked back across the distance she saw smoke and possible fire coming towards her... She decided to run to the hut and from there to the entrance of the park, but as soon as she started running in the right direction, she stopped and thought if she was going the right way or not, she then got blinded by the smoke, it was pouring around her, she started coughing erratically, she was scared...
Ranger Smith, Yogi Bear and Booboo, then ran back to the hut and while he was running he tried to phone his daughter but she wasn't picking up, he started to get worried. By the time they all got to the hut they found Rachel and Ranger Jones who had gone to town to help her with her shopping, as soon as they got there Ranger Smith asked "Is Elle here?" Rachel and Ranger Jones both replied "No". Rachel asked why and Ranger Smith replied anxiously "I think she's still out in the forest, lost, and there is a forest fire here in Jellystone Park!" Ranger Jones replied coolly, "I'll call the fire department and paramedics to come stat, not meaning to worry you but Elle could get hurt, it is a forest fire you know" Ranger Smith then said angrily "that's not helping Jones!" "Besides we have to get out of here otherwise we may become trapped and get injured!" Booboo then asked concerned "But what about Elle, will she be alright Mr Ranger?" Ranger Smith replied "I don't know Booboo, I don't know!" However, he heard a distance scream and tried to run, but Rachel stopped him and said "Don't go, there's too much smoke you will Die" Ranger Smith struggled out of Rachel's grasp and carried on, at that exact minute they heard the Paramedics, Police and Fire department arrive, ready to go into action.
Elle, who had no idea where she was going, suddenly fell over a branch and tumbled down, and her left leg smashed against a rock at the bottom, breaking it and causing her to scream in pain. She then almost lost consciousness from smoke inhalation tried look around even though her leg hurt so much, and saw flames in the distance behind her, creeping up, she then saw blackness as she fainted, but she too heard the Paramedics, Police and Fire departments signals that they were here to at least help here, but they got further away.
Ranger Smith was running towards where he heard that scream and suddenly tripped over something, he looked down and touched it and realised it was Elle's broken leg against a rock. Ranger Smith got up and picked Elle up, and then felt something weird with her leg, he then noticed that something hard had split in two, he realised it was Elle's leg, broken. Smith then heard sirens and went towards them, and they became louder, he then screamed at the top of his lungs "HELP!" "Someone HELP me, PLEASE!" Then he saw figures, and realised they were fireman, but unfortunately the Ranger, as too like his daughter, tripped and fell, but this time hurting his chest a lot, he too cried in pain and then fainted from the smoke inhalation, the next thing he knew he heard voices of fireman, paramedics and Rachel, speaking to him.
The next morning, Ranger Smith woke up to find himself in a hospital bed, he then looked around and saw Rachel sat next, he then felt pain in his chest, and looked at bandages on his chest wrapped around it. He tried to sit up, but winced in pain. Rachel immediately woke up and saw Ranger Smith trying to sit up, and said to him that that wasn't a good idea as he had broken three ribs. She then asked "How do you feel?" Ranger Smith then replied "very saw" He then asked nervously "Where's Elle?" Rachel replied "she's in the hospital too, she has a broken leg" Ranger Smith then tried to get out of bed, but laid back down wincing in a lot of pain, asking when he could see her. Rachel replied, "soon", but actually Rachel didn't know when he could see Elle, as Elle was in a coma. Smith could see it in her eyes, something was wrong, he then asked "tell me the truth" Rachel replied saying calmly "the doctors say she is in a deep sleep" she then began to rub his hand to try and calm him down. Smith calmed down, and at that point a doctor came in and checked smith's breathing, and said that he could be discharged, the next day.
The next day, Ranger Smith was about to leave when the doctor came in and announced that Elle had woken up and was asking for him, Smith then immediately went with the doctor to Elle's room and Smith quietly walked in. He saw his daughter with her left leg in a plaster cast, and a bandage on her head and wrist. He sat down and then she Elle started to wake up from her coma. She then spoke to him "Dad?" Smith replied "Yes, hey champ, how you feel?" Elle replied "My leg aches" He replied "I know it does, but you will be better soon I promise you will, ok, the doctors and nurses will be taking very good care of you" Elle then asked "Dad, what happened?" Smith then said to his daughter "Well there was a fire, and you got lost and you fell and broke your leg and then I tried to save you" Elle then questioned by saying "What do you mean you tried?" Smith then said "Well I fell over you and broke three ribs" Elle, then replied "Oh well your better now otherwise you would be in a hospital gown like me" She continued "When can I go home Dad?" Smith replied "I don't know but why don't we ask the doctor, he's coming in right now" The doctor a fairly tall man told the father and daughter that Elle could go home in a week and a couple of days, as she has to have surgery so the pins can be taken out so that the bone will grow back correctly.
A few days later, Elle was prepped for surgery; Smith accompanied her right up to when she was put to sleep with anaesthetic. Smith waited 2 hours and 30minutes exactly and the doctor then said that Elle was out of surgery and it was successful and he could see her. Smith went to his daughters room and fell asleep until she woke up a couple of hours later groaning in pain from her leg being sore from the pins just being removed from her leg, this woke up smith too, and comforted her by saying "hey sleepy head" Elle's reply was "when can I get out of here, I want to go back home with you, Dad" Smiths reply was, I don't know maybe a couple of days, besides you are bed bound for a couple of days when we get home, you have to rest your leg" Elle replied "Why?" Smith replied "Because your leg has to heal properly so it has to be elevated properly, and you will be exhausted from the pills you have to take so you will need somewhere comfortable to sleep" Elle saw the point, and then tried to sit up, but Smith pushed her down saying "Remember you have to keep that leg properly elevated, or it will heel slower" Elle then asked "What happened to Jellystone Park?" "Are Yogi, booboo, Rachel and Ranger Jones fine?" Her father's response was a gesture at the door and there stood Rachel and Ranger Jones. Elle then whispered to her father "Please tell me Ranger Jones isn't head ranger as of you being away?" Her father relied "Unfortunately yes he is, don't worry I'll be back to head ranger, besides Rachel will keep the park in order" Rachel and Ranger Jones greeted Elle and Ranger Smith and reported that only a small part of Jellystone actually caught on fire and that the cause of the fire was a bit of paper catching on fire from her camping stove, Elle then asked how did the piece of paper get to the camping stove, her dad had put it in his pocket. Ranger Smiths response was "the piece of paper must have fallen out of my pocket while we started walking towards Yogi and Booboos new Picnic nabber machine. Rachel then said that Yogi and Booboo miss Ranger Smith and Elle a lot, and blames them for the fire which was an accident. Ranger Smith then said "they can't blame themselves for a fire that was an accident" Rachel replied "I know"...
A couple of days later Elle and Ranger Smith were at home, both were asleep as they had both taken pills for their injuries, Elle for her broken leg and Ranger Smith for his three broken ribs, everything was peaceful until Yogi Bear entered the apartment... Yogi Bear and booboo entered Ranger Smiths apartment quietly, Booboo had objected to them walking in and instead ringing the doorbell; they went into Elle's room where Ranger Smith and Elle were sleeping booboo told Yogi to wake Mr ranger up quietly so not to disturb Elle. Yogi ignored booboo and instead accidently sat on Elle's leg that was broken, Elle woke up and groaned in pain, Ranger smith immediately woke up and thought his daughter had tried to get up as she had wanted to go out, but wasn't allowed to. Elle said angrily "Yogi!" Ranger Smith then looked at Yogi and Booboo and told them to go into the living room. He then attended Elle who was still groaning, the plaster had cracked luckily Yogi's weight hadn't broken her leg again. He then gave Elle some pain killers and comforted her back to sleep and shut the door and went into the living room and then asked Yogi and Booboo, "How did you get in to my apartment?" "Nether the less why sit on Elle's leg especially when it is broken and is in a cast that now has a crack in it?" Yogi replied "sorry Mr. Ranger but firstly your door was unlocked, secondly I didn't know Elle could talk" Booboo then added "I objected to this, but Yogi wouldn't listen he carried on" Ranger Smith replied "Very well then, but don't dare go into my apartment ever again without knocking or ringing the doorbell, okay?" "Okay" Yogi and Booboo replied.
