Beep beep! Beep beep! Beep beep! Beep beep! Beep beep!
Mordecai slammed his fist down on the alarm clock, making it stop and nearly breaking it in the process.
"Damn! Shut the hell up already!" Mordecai said angrily. He sat up and yawned and stretched his arms. He looked over at Rigby's trampoline. The raccoon was already up. Due to him being a light sleeper, anything easily woke him up.
"The alarm clock woke you up didn't it?" Mordecai asked.
"No, actually it was you pounding on the alarm clock that woke me up." Rigby said.
"Oh! That would make sense, since you're a light sleeper." Mordecai said.
"Man, I wish I was a heavy sleeper like you." Rigby exclaimed.
"There are some pros and cons to it." Mordecai said. He looked at the alarm clock, it read 8:30. It was still three more hours until they had to hang out with Margaret and Eileen.
"Come on dude, let's go eat some breakfast." Mordecai said and got up and started to walk out of the room. Rigby got up and followed him out. The duo then smelt a wonderful aroma.
"Dude! What smells so good?" Rigby said with his mouth watering.
"Smells really good. Like pancakes!" Mordecai said hungrily. They walked down the stairs and into the kitchen. To their luck, Pops was at the stove cooking some pancakes. There was a plate of some on the counter to the right of him. The stack was at least a foot high. Pops turned around and saw them.
"Oh good morning gentleman! I'm cooking some pancakes for everybody." Pops said cheerily.
"Those smell really good Pops!" Rigby said salivating.
"Why thank you! I'm just cooking a few more and then we can all dig in." Pops said.
"Geez Pops! How many have you made?" Mordecai asked.
"There's about twenty on the plate. I'm making enough for everyone to have three." Pops explained.
"Good, cause I'm hungry!" Rigby said, opening the fridge and grabbing a carton of orange juice and grabbed two cups and filled each one near the brim and gave one to Mordecai. They started sipping on them when Thomas came in the room.
"Thomas, what are you doing here? We don't have to work today." Mordecai asked.
"Well I just wanted to hang out with everybody today since I couldn't last night. Plus, Pops called and invited me over for pancakes." Thomas explained.
"We'd love to hang out with you today Thomas, but Rigby and I are hanging out with Margaret and Eileen today." Mordecai said.
"Who are they?" Thomas asked, not knowing who Margaret and Eileen were.
"They are two girls who work in the coffee shop in town that we go to very often." Mordecai explained to Thomas.
"I'm going to have to meet them sometime. I hope they're nice people." Thomas said.
"Trust me Thomas, they're nice. They won't bite." Mordecai said. Muscle Man and Hi-5 Ghost then came in the room.
"What's going on ladies?" Muscle Man said.
"I'm guessing you heard." Rigby said.
"Yeah! I heard about being able to stuff my face with pancakes." Muscle Man said. Skips and Benson then came in the room.
"Pancakes are done!" Pops said happily as he brought the tower of pancakes over to the table. Mordecai went to the cabinet and got out eight plates and put them on the table next to the pancakes. Mordecai and Rigby each grabbed a plate and they each put three pancakes on their plate. They sat down in the living room on the couch and ate their pancakes. They had them eaten in five minutes because they were very hungry.
"Don't leave your plates in here." Benson said with a mouthful of pancakes. Mordecai and Rigby got and went to put their plates in the sink.
"Want to play some Strong Johns until the girls get here?" Mordecai asked.
"Oh you know it!" Rigby said. Mordecai went upstairs to grab his phone and went back downstairs to see Rigby sitting on the couch with the game set up. Mordecai picked up a controller and they started playing their game. Mordecai's phone went off.
"Hold on dude!" Mordecai said, holding his hand out signaling Rigby to stop. Mordecai checked his phone. He got a text from Margaret.
"Hey! I'll be at the park at 11:20 to pick you guys up. Okay?"
Mordecai texted back:
"Okay! See you then!"
"Okay let's start!" Mordecai said, picking up his controller.
Two and a half hours later
Mordecai and Rigby were just finishing up their final game of Strong Johns.
"Man that was entertaining!" Rigby said. Mordecai picked up his phone and looked at the time. It was 11:18.
"Holy crap, dude! Margaret will be here in two minutes." Mordecai said surprised at the time.
"Be right back! I have to get my wallet." Rigby said and rushed up the stairs.
"I need to get mine too!" Mordecai said and ran up the stairs after Rigby. The duo grabbed both their wallets and went out the front door to the park entrance. After about a minute, Margaret pulled up in her car with Eileen.
"Ready to go guys?" Margaret asked.
"Yeah! We're ready!" Mordecai answered and opened the passenger door. Eileen got in the back with Rigby while Mordecai rode up front. He closed the door and they drove off.
"So what movie are we going to see?" Margaret asked.
"I was thinking we could see that new movie "Love Doctor". It seems pretty cool." Mordecai suggested.
"Do we really need to see another romance movie?" Rigby asked.
"Do you have something better planned?" Mordecai asked. Rigby was about to say something, but couldn't think of anything.
"Fine! Let's see it." Rigby said in defeat.
"Don't worry Rigby. I heard it was pretty funny too." Eileen said.
"Yeah, yeah!" Rigby said.
Another five minutes and they got to the movie theater. They got their tickets and went inside and chose their seats and waited for the movie to start. It was previews right now, so it was a good few minutes until the movie started.
"I've been wanting to see this since the preview on tv." Margaret said.
"Me too!" Eileen said.
"I guess I made the right choice then." Mordecai said.
"I guess you did!" Margaret said.
"Shh! Movie is about to start!" Rigby said.
"Wow! That was quick!" Mordecai said.
It was near the end of the movie. It was getting to the most romantic part of the movie. Margaret and Eileen had tears in their eyes while Mordecai and Rigby were just sitting there with smiles on their faces, not letting one tear loose. The main character then eventually kissed the girl. Mordecai moved his hand over to hold Margaret's, but then thought about it and moved it away. But Margaret saw it and moved her hand on top of his. Mordecai's smile grew even wider. Eileen saw this and tried to put her hand on top of Rigby's. Unfortunately Rigby saw it and slowly put his hand down.
"Darn! So close!" Eileen thought.
"Thank you love doctor!" The man in the movie said.
The movie eventually ended. The four of them walked out.
"I loved it! What did you guys think?" Margaret asked.
"It was pretty good. But it seemed like an ordinary romance movie to me." Mordecai answered.
"Same here!" Rigby said.
"It was a great movie! I really liked it!" Eileen said.
"How about we go grab a bite?" Mordecai said.
"I'm up for it! Let's go!" Rigby said. They all walked towards Margaret's car. A little far out was a building under construction. Near the top were two guys waiting for a board full of bricks to come up to them.
"Come on! Hurry it up!" One of them said.
"Hey Eric, how many bricks are there?" The other one said.
"I asked for twenty five of them, Stan." The one named Eric answered.
"Twenty five? I doubt the board could hold that much weight." Stan said.
"Relax, man! It's not going to break!" Eric said. Little did he know the board was trembling due to the weight of the bricks.
"That board is not looking good!" Stan said panicking, pointing at the board.
"Trust me, it's fine!" Eric said. But he was wrong. The board broke and all the bricks fell through.
"Great! There goes twenty five bricks! And we're two hundred feet in the air. They're going to break!" Stan said angrily.
"Oh guys, I need to check my phone for a second. I'll catch up!" Eileen said. She took out her phone to see if she missed anything while in the movie theater while the other three walked on to Margaret's car. But she didn't know about the load of bricks falling above her. She noticed the shadow was getting bigger, she looked up above her and saw the bricks almost near her. She screamed. Rigby heard the scream and looked behind him and saw the bricks about to crush Eileen. His eyes widened.
"Eileen!" Rigby shouted at the top of his lungs. He ran back towards Eileen on all fours. She braced to be crushed by the bricks. But in an instant, she saw Rigby running towards her. Rigby in the nick of time, dived and pushed her out of the way, but unfortunately for him, the big load of bricks crushed him. Eileen rubbed the side of her head and then looked at the big pile of bricks and saw Rigby's arm sticking out of them. She gasped.
"Rigby!" She shouted and ran over to the pile of bricks. Mordecai and Margaret ran over as well, watching the whole thing. The three of them took some bricks and threw them off to the side and saw Rigby all beat up from the bricks.
"Rigby! Say something!" Mordecai yelled. Rigby tried to raise his arm, but was too hurt and just laid there groaning.
"Call an ambulance!" Eileen said worriedly. Mordecai got his phone and dialed 911 to do so.
"Don't worry Rigby! Everything will be fine!" Eileen sad sadly. Within five minutes, an ambulance showed up and two paramedics came out with a stretcher.
"What happened here?" One of them asked.
"My friend here got crushed by a load of bricks and he looks severely hurt." Mordecai answered.
"Okay let's get him on!" The other paramedic said. They removed the rest of the bricks and lifted Rigby up and put him on the stretcher. They then loaded him into the ambulance.
"Should any of us come with him?" Eileen asked. Rigby sat there, still groaning.
"I think it would be best if you just came to visit him when he's ready in the hospital." The first paramedic said. He closed the doors and the ambulance drove off. A tear escaped from Eileen's eye.
"It's okay Eileen! I'm pretty sure he'll come out alright." Margaret said, comforting her friend.
"I really hope so! But that was a lot of bricks. Who knows how he will be. He could die." Eileen cried, with more tears rolling down her cheeks.
"I have to call Benson about this." Mordecai said as he dialed Benson's number on his phone. Benson soon picked up.
"Hello?" Benson called.
"Benson, Rigby got crushed by a lot of bricks and he's going to the hospital!" Mordecai explained.
"What? Are you serious? We'll be right over!" Benson said as he hung up.
"The others will be over at the hospital immediately." Mordecai said.
"Come on! Let's get over there! I want to make sure that Rigby is okay." Eileen said as she rushed off to Margaret's car.
"Let's go!" Mordecai said, and the two of them got in the car and headed towards the hospital.
During the whole ride, all three of them had a worried expression on their face. Hoping for the best that Rigby wasn't hurt to the point that he would die.
Well there is chapter 2. Poor Rigby! What will happen to him? Are the injuries going to put him in a critical condition? Or will he pull through? The next chapter will reveal the answers. Until next time…
Keep breathing and rock on!
