Cooper was laughingÉ. Jay was laughingÉ and Elle couldnÕt have been angrier. A nurse had just fainted and now knew about the Men In Black. She didnÕt think anything worse could have happened to them for the day. Little did she knowÉ that a whole world of ÔworstÕ was soon to descend upon the hospital. Elle looked sternly into the communicator.
ÒI ought to get both YOU AND COOPER in one room and fry your brains!Ó she yelled at Jay. Jay and Cooper promptly shut up. Kay looked into the communicator.
ÒWeÕll be there soon. The sooner we get this all cleaned up, the sooner Zed will be happy.Ó
ÒYeahÉÓ said Jay. ÒAnd the sooner we get this all done with, the sooner Zealtor here can get rid of that lame disguise. I donÕt wanna be in the room when Zed sees it.Ó He said, as he immediately started laughing again. Cooper looked at Norton.
ÒI honestly donÕt know why sheÕs a nurseÉÓ he said. ÒShe doesnÕt have the stomach to stand a couple of aliens!Ó he said as he cracked up. Elle shook her head and turned off the communicator.
ÒIÕm so close to getting up and punching you!Ó she said.
Down the hall, Coy and Ellis wondered where Cooper and Norton were. They had been gone for a little bit and it wasnÕt like Cooper to leave something like an alien behind. It had only been recently that they learned that Cooper was THIS much of a sci-fi nut. Ellis had wondered how good science fiction conventions could be to warrant Cooper requesting whole days off. She could picture him now, all decked up in some star trek getup and walking around speaking some phony alien language from a campy television show. She snickered at how dumb he would have looked with Vulcan ears on.
ÒSo theyÕre coming? Now?Ó asked Cooper. Elle nodded. ÒAnd what is going to happen?Ó he asked as he twiddled his thumbs.
ÒIf I told you, it wouldnÕt be much of a surprise, now would it?Ó she said as she thumbed through a magazine in the room. Cooper began to ponder it all. They would come and he would lose his discoveryÉ and his one way ticket to fame and fortune. Figures. Something good happens and in an instant it can all be taken away.
The secret agents looked over some computer screens of maps. They were some ways away from the target in New York City, but they were not too far. They had planned to make sure that no oneÉ not even the mysterious Men in Black could steal this from them. They would be sure to put up one hell of a fight for this. They REALLY needed the projectÉ and the project would surely bring needed funding to keep them all in nice jobs. None of them wanted to end up pushing paper or cashing groceries at a store if their jobs were pulled out from under them like a floor carpet. Of course, considering the jobs they had currentlyÉ the government would not likely let them vanish back into civilization and take a silly little job at a grocery. The government would never let these people slip away from them. The real fear came in the form of wondering what WOULD happen to them should the Area 51 funding for studies be cut to include a personnel reduction of the scientists and agents.
As they studied the maps, they built over a plan to get into the hospital, secure the extraterrestrial and get out of there without being hassled by the police, or the Men In Black. Being that they were leaving their base, they were to use the names they were given to keep security tight. Agent Zenith pondered over what to do and then decidedÉ why worry about the police department when they could do work for you and mess up the plans of the urban legends at the same time? Agent Zenith brought up a communications screen and decided to call in security for the hospital and have the patient guarded at all costs because ofÉ hmm. They needed a cover for this all. They needed something that would sound important and leave no doubtÉ but not uncover the existance of an Extraterrestrial in the hospital. Zenith looked over to Agent Magnavox.
ÒWeÕre going to need a cover for this oneÉ I need something important, but not obvious and stupidÉÓ he said. Magnavox thought it over.
ÒWe can say itÕs a spyÉ from someÉ. really foreign force weÕve had problems with and that the police are not to permit anyone from going in or leaving the floor or hallway or somethingÉ.Ó
ÒGoodÉ but there may be other people in that wing.Ó
ÒSpy with a highly volatile illness?Ó
ÒBetter. Promotes fear.Ó
ÒWhy donÕt we make it a spy with an illness that plans to take over the worldÉ?Ó joked Magnavox.
ÒThen it would sound like a cheesy action film.Ó He said.
Kay was driving down the busy streets when they got pinned in traffic. FiguresÉ there was no easy way out of this one.
ÒSoooo, Kay. If something happens to yaÉ. EverÉ and IÕm not saying it to be utterly evil or anythingÉ. Could I drive the LTD?Ó asked Jay. Kay was unmoving as he sat and thought about the traffic.
ÒSlickÉ I donÕt think so.Ó he said. Zealtor looked up from the back seat.
ÒWhat if something happens tonight?Ó he asked in the usual cheery voice, which was doubly ludicrous coming from the face of ZedÉ with orange hair. Kay did something he hadnÕt done in a while. He chuckled.
ÒIf something happened tonightÉ IÕd rather see YOU drive, Zealtor, than you Jay. Nothing against youÉ just a matter of who would get the car back in one piece or not.Ó Jay crossed his arms and scrunched in his seat.
ÒItÕs nice to know IÕm loved hereÉÓ he said as he sulked. Zealtor was beaming with pride. Out of him and JayÉ Kay would trust him more than Jay to drive.
ÒItÕs good to hear that, Kay. I would do an excellent job of driving too!Ó he said. ÒIÕm sure IÕve seen enough of those high speed chases on the television to know how to get the gist of piloting a motor vehicle such as this!Ó he continued. Jay wasnÕt happy at all. Jay bobbed his head back and forth and mimicked Zealtor quietly in mockery.
Agents Zenith, Magnavox and Goldstar had called in security for the area with the ET. They knew they could most likely pressure the doctors in the area into doing what they wanted. They had to worry about getting the alien out without drawing too much attention. They decided a standard helicopter ÔtransferÕ ruse would be good. TheyÕd haul him up and take off with him. A few well placed threats would take care of the physicians.
Coy looked up as he heard some police radios in the hall. He carefully opened the door and exited quickly, closing the door.
ÒDonÕt let anyone in, EllisÉÓ he said as he headed down the hall. There were two police officers standing there with cups of coffee. Coy walked up to them. ÒMay I help you?Ó he asked, trying not to arouse suspicion.
ÒYeah, WeÕre the security for the patient. High security risk patient.Ó
Said one of them. Coy was baffled. He was SURE Cooper would not have gone THIS far to secure his fame. He was going to put a stop to this sooner or later. That kid was too much trouble.
ÒWho sent you?Ó he asked.
ÒWe were just told to keep an eye on the PatientÉ with the volatile illnessÉ and make sure no one but you guys get in and out of this area.Ó Coy was again baffled. This wasnÕt right.
ÒAllllrightyÉÓ he said as he turned and walked down the hall to find the other patientÕs room. Cooper and Norton would be there.
He walked in and found Norton unconscious on the floor and Cooper looking at some papers.
ÒOh, heyÉ. Coy, youÕll never believe thisÉÓ started Cooper. Coy cut him off.
ÒWhat WERE you thinking??? Calling the cops in!?Ó he asked.
ÒHuh?Ó said Cooper as a dumb look crossed his face.
ÒTHE SECURITY FOR THE ÔHIGH RISK PATIENT YOU CALLED IN!Ó
ÒI didnÕt do anything!Ó said Cooper. ÒIÕve been here and I know whatÕs going on now!Ó he finished. He turned to Elle. ÒCare to explain to the good Doctor?Ó he asked. Elle sighed. SheÕd be spilling a lot of secrets tonight.
