Sick Day

Written by JaJaLoo and NMMacc18


Plot: Will's laziness is noticed by Nicholas, so he spins a tall tale of a disease caught by not working. This sends Wildcat into overdrive.


The animation quality coming from 2004 Wentz Avenue had been declining.

Usually, it was Will's job to do the animating, but since the beginning of December, he had been saying he had been going to see his family.

And we all remember what happened when Will leaves the house, right?

The other users have to draw for him.

Sick of it, Nicholas hired a professional artist.

And he also decided to stalk Will until everything was solved.

This is that story.


It all started when Nicholas was downtown.

He was going to stalk Will, and find out what was going on.

Nicholas was hiding in an alleyway, reading a newspaper upside down.

Yes, he can read.

No, he didn't care.

He leaned against the wall, and then Will walked by.

Nicholas looked over the paper, and put it down.

He started following Will.

"Alright, you louse, I know you're up to something."

Ducking behind trash cans, Nicholas tailed Will to where he went.

And what he saw shocked him.

"The lake?" Nicholas asked himself. "What's he doing here?"

Will walked over, and sat on a nearby lawn chair.

He picked up a smoothie and began relaxing.

Nicholas was dumbfounded.

It was the middle of winter, and Will was at a lake?

"Something's up." Nicholas told himself. "But I'm not gonna find out what."


When Nicholas arrived home, he saw the guys relaxing.

"How's the replacement?" Nicholas asked.

"He's stiff as a board, I don't know why you hired him." Patrick groaned.

Sure enough, Will's replacement, Roy, walked to Will's drawing board.

"Hey, guys." Roy said, sitting down to draw again. "Don't bother my work ethic."

The users stared at him blankly.

"See? Stiff." Patrick said.

At that moment, Will arrived home.

"Hey, guys."

Everyone stared at him.

"Where have you been?" Nicholas asked.

"The lake. Why?"

Nicholas got a look of confusion.

Will was telling the truth?

"Anyways, could someone get me a Sprite?" Will asked, flopping on the couch.

Nicholas closed his fists and gritted his teeth.


That night, it was the annual scary stories, and Jackson was just finishing.

"And so, the bog monster tailed the boys on the camping trip. He snuck into the tent and HE ATE THEM ALL!" he exclaimed.

Everyone rolled their eyes.

"Alright. Who's next?" Jackson asked.

And Nicholas raised his hand.

"Go ahead, Nicholas. Tell us a story, I know you're not boring."

Nicholas ignored the reference to The Strokes, and began to weave his tall tale.

"Alright. This is a story of a disease, and it's actually true." he started.

"Ooh, a true story!" Wildcat said.

"Alright, in a certain house, on a certain street, there was an artist named Will."

"OK." Will said. "This is going too far."

Nicholas ignored him, and continued.

"Will was an artist, as I said, but he wasn't really doing his job. He was leaving his job to go to the lake in the middle of winter."

Will rolled his eyes.

"I'm not lazy. I'm just busy relaxing." he said.

"One day, when Will came home, he sat down at his desk, and suddenly went into several weird spasms. What happened was that he caught a disease for not working. He suddenly went all crazy and left the house, getting put inside a psych ward."

Will scoffed and left the room.

The users all stared at Nicholas.

"Wow. That was some story." Nemo said.

Wildcat looked uneasy.

"This is true?" he asked.

"Yeah." Nicholas lied. "I heard of someone at the Call of Duty Fanon Wiki who died in the psych ward after he caught the disease."

Wildcat stared at Nicholas with wide eyes.

Then he fainted.

"Great. Someone help him up." Nicholas said.


The next morning, Jackson woke up to a sound of typing.

"Huh? What's going on?" he asked himself.

He saw Wildcat at his desk.

"WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING IN HERE?" Jackson shouted.

Wildcat spun around.

"Hi, Jackson. I'm doing your job for a day." he said.

"This has to be a dream." Jackson groaned, leaving for breakfast.


"HE DID WHAT?"

"You heard me." Jackson said. "Wildcat is in my room writing scripts which I have to write!"

"Well, he does write good transcripts." Nicholas said. "That's the only reason why we keep him around."

"Still, it's my job!"

Will came downstairs, and poured himself a bowl of cereal.

"Hey, guys." he said. "By the way, Nicholas, that story you told last night was a bunch of bunk. There is no disease for not working. I Googled it."

"I know. It was a story." Nicholas replied.

"Apparently not to Wildcat." Nemo said, walking into the kitchen. "He stole my phone and phone book to call celebrities."

"Good god, I hope he doesn't get to my job." Berry said. "How is he supposed to write, call, and mail film reels at the same time!"

"At that matter, how's he supposed to do all our jobs at once?" Patrick asked.

Jackson thought about this.

"Maybe we can..." he said.

The users looked at him.

"And how will we do that?" James asked.

"We've all seen Ferris Bueller's Day Off, right?" Jackson asked.

Everyone nodded. Ferris Bueller was one of Jackson's favorite films.

"Well, we fake a sick day, and we go out on the town, leaving Wildcat to do our jobs for a day, see how he likes it." Jackson finished, with a devilish grin on his face.

Everyone grinned.

They liked this plan.

"It's a deal." Nicholas said. "Tomorrow, we will go out on the town."


The next day, Wildcat woke up in his room.

Once he left, he noticed everyone's door open.

He walked into Jackson's room.

"Jackson?" he asked. "What's going on?"

But in the night, the guys had cloned themselves.

"I'm sick, Wildcat. Write my scripts for me." the Jackson clone said.

It sounded pretty convincing. Jackson was good at acting, as he did some plays in school.

Wildcat got the same answer from every cloned user.

"Wow." Wildcat said to himself. "I can either have a sweet party, or I can work and not catch the disease...I'll take the latter."

And with that, Wildcat left to start working.


Meanwhile, at the waterpark, Jackson had just beaten Nemo in a waterslide race.

"I WIN!" he yelled.

Nemo groaned and slapped the water.

They joined the other users.

"I don't know why I rejected going with you guys the last time!" Jackson said.

"Probably because you were antisocial." Patrick said.

That got a towel thrown onto Patrick's head.

"Alright, what next?" Nicholas asked.


Meanwhile, Wildcat was on overdrive.

He had written five episodes for a show, a whole movie, cast a lot of celebrity guests, animated it, edited it, announced it, and shipped it.

And he had done this the whole day.

"Can't stop working. Must not get disease!" he shouted.

And in the process, he began destroying the house.


Meanwhile, the guys exited the Burger King.

"Wow. Best burger I've had in a while." Patrick said.

"Alright." Nicholas said, looking at his watch. "We have a little time before our clones disappear. I say we go see a movie."

And everyone took off for the theater.


Ninety minutes later, Wildcat was going crazy.

"OH, NO!" he yelled. "I HAVE THE DISEASE! MUST WORK HARDER!"

At that time, the guys walked in.

"Hey, Wildcat." Will said.

"Not now, guys. I can't catch the disease!"

Everyone burst out laughing.

"WHAT'S SO FUNNY?" Wildcat asked.

"There was no disease!" Nicholas chuckled. "I made that story up to take jabs at Will, but it seems you're the most effected!"

Wildcat turned a sharp glare on Nicholas.

From that day forward, everyone worked their very hardest, not getting the "disease."

And all was well with the wiki again.
