Back once again for our 25th section. Can you believe it's gone this far? Well, we can't
Your motivation is what has kept us going......now where did everyone go? It seems to
us that we've lost several readers! Either they're not reviewing or they left. This does
not motivate us.
**Cassi pauses at typing to scream in pain. The temp has changed drastically again,
and my knee just felt like it was stabbed. Trying to avoid taking the drugs, but if it won't
go away in the next five minutes, I'm taking them. I know I have a very low thresh hold
for pain....let's just say Romano is lucky that Ibuprophen works on him. I could swallow
half a bottle of those stupid things and they do nothing. **grumbles**
Okay, apart from the complaining seminar....Becca! Hmm, Fiddles rides...I don't think
he'd mind. He loves women. Fiddles is just weird that way. He hates most men and
black horses.
Let's see now....where did we leave off? Um, Coburn's a skunk, Mark Lowry is blaring
through the intercom system....no, we did not write that song. It is a REAL song. Mark
Lowry is like a Christian form of Weird Al Yankovic. He does parodies of popular
Christian songs, and in some cases, makes up his own. He's also part of the Gaither
Vocal Band, and travels with Bill Gaither part time. Any other questions?
Romano and Elizabeth have now escaped...which was our plan to start with. The boys
have Chen and MystiQ hostage and the girls are moving to the morgue. So where do we
pick up? Hmmmm.......Honestly I have no clue. Time to think a bit.
We will say that after Mark Lowry's tape is over, Sven wants to put on Cassi's personal
tape, "The Idiot Collection"...Becca, almost all the funny songs on your tape are on this
tape. It includes Weird Al, Bill Engvall, Jeff Foxworthy, &Mark Lowry. I can list songs
at the end of this just for those who are wondering what we're playing. ^_^
For the record, I caved and took the drugs. When they kick in, I should be doing much
better....oh yeah and Sven wants to play the Idiot Collection so use your own thoughts
of what's to come.
*******************************************************************

In the Daycare, Jing Mei Chen was tied to a chair next to MystiQ, and several of the
boys, were throwing ketchup and mustard at them. The boys who weren't dancing to
the music from the intercom system, that is. Most of the songs were definitely parodies
of normal songs. None of them really made much sense.

Currently most of them were singing with "The Night Santa Went Crazy". Wolvie
especially seemed to be enjoying it.

"I want out of here." MystiQ muttered.

Chen glared at Kovac, who had just flung a water balloon at her. "So do I." She
remarked. "And when I do, I'm going to smash Luka's head through a wall."
*******************************************************************

Downstairs, sitting on the counter of the ER's main desk, was Cassi. She had been
singing with the music since it had first come on, drawing several stares.

"She does this a lot?" Ardeth asked Sven in a low voice.

Sven nodded. "It's her tape." She informed him.

"I wanna sing too!" Emmy stated.

"Fiddles wants to sing too, yes he does, Fiddles is a good singer!" Fiddles spoke up
from behind them. "I can take you out to sing too, yes I can!"

"Oooh, I wanna ride!" Becca exclaimed.

Sven snapped her fingers, changing herself back to normal and bounced into the room,
flopping onto the counter next to Cassi, and joining the singing. They looked up as
the hampster ball came rolling back through, and gave each other sly looks, and began
to sing.

As they did this, Benton stopped short, and stared.

"Babcock, Babcock! Babcock the wonder gerbil! He doesn't bite and he doesn't crawl,
he just runs around in his hampster ball! Babcock, Babcock! Babcock the wonder
GERBIL!!!! HEY BABCOCK!!!" They shouted out. **spoofauthor parody of "Harvey
the Wonder Hampster", by Weird Al Yankovic.**

Sandy bit her lip. "Ummm...."

Benton burst out laughing. "Oh he'd better hope Romano didn't hear that one." He
mused.

Kerry stared at him. "I don't believe you!" She cried. "Who's side are you on?!"

Sandy started giggling. "Oh come on, Kerry, it's funny!" She spoke up.

-----------------------

Around the corner, Romano was giving an evil grin, as he looked at Elizabeth.

"He's not going to live that one down." Elizabeth remarked, slyly. "I think that just
made up for all of last year."

"I had a feeling you'd see it that way." Robert retorted, snickering. "Come on, Lizzie, we
need to get out of here before we get caught again."

"So what do you want to do now?" She asked, as they headed down the hallway.

Robert shrugged. "Not a clue." He answered. "And I'm not ready to grow back up yet."

Elizabeth grinned. "Somehow I figured you'd say that." She retorted, grabbing his arm.
"Come on. I have an idea."

------------------------

As the next song came on, Fiddles bounced into the room, singing along with it.
"Fiddles will party all night till the cows come home!!" He sang out, bouncing with
the beat. Then he paused. "What's a cow? Fiddles has never heard of a cow."

"Garne." Sven told him.

"Oh...we'll party all night till the garnes come home!" Fiddles sang. **Don't ask. Fiddles
is not from earth.**

Weaver sighed and threw the charts up in the air. "I give up." She muttered.

In the background, Murdoc, Ryan and Blue were dancing, and waving lightsabers.

Emmy stared at Blue. "Um....what's with him?" She asked.

Sven groaned. "Oh great. Who did that?!" She complained. "As if Murdoc and
Ryan weren't bad enough!"

Imhotep quietly stalked out of the room, carrying the ever present dart gun, with an
innocent look on his face.

Becca looked over at Cassi and Sven. "This is your fault." She told them.

"Our fault?!" Cassi burst out. "WE didn't put him on it!"

"Great, psychopathic killers on morphine.....just what we need." Emmy muttered.

"Psychopathic killers on morphine, oh my!" Sven sang out.

The others turned to look at her.

"Sorry, couldn't help it." She explained.
******************************************************************

Down in the morgue, Abby, who was now Abby again....er...for the moment, was looking
at a blueprint of the hospital. "Where would the boys be?" She asked, more to herself.

"They're not in Radiology, OB, and they're not on the surgical floor." Shirley put in.
"Shadow and I checked there."

"Jeanie?" Susan spoke up, nudging the girl. "You getting anything?"

Jeanie shook her head. "Charlie's gotta be blocking it." She told her.

Abby frowned. "Can you isolate Charlie then?" She asked suddenly.

"Hey great idea." Lucy replied. "Guess this means you're out of your stupid phase."

"Yeah, the next one's the smart one." Abby informed them. "Sarah Harding."

"Kind of freaky if you ask me." Shirley confessed. "I don't think I could handle changing
like that."

Abby sighed. "Believe me, it ain't a picnic for me." She retorted.

Jeanie's head shot up. "Daycare!" She proclaimed, triumphantly. "They're near the
daycare room!"

"Hey, score one for the girls!" Susan exclaimed. "Way to go, Jeanie."

"So who's going up there?" Shadow asked. "We need to get Mysti Q and Jing Mei back."

Abby nodded. "Shadow, you go with Sugah and Shirley." She ordered. "We need to
know who's guarding them and what the place looks like. If you phase, they can't get any
of you."

Lucy grinned. "Good to have you back, Abby." She remarked, patting the other girl's
shoulder. "So, what about Carter and Ardeth?"

"Last we heard they were with Creepy." Susan mused. "They're hiding with him so he
can Bamf them out if they need him to."

"They've got the blueprints to the hospital, so he'd know his way around." Abby reminded
them. "We need to have scouts to check the entrances to the morgue." She looked up.
"Lucy, Buffy, Glory, and.....Dawn."

"No problem." Buffy replied, grinning. "Who would have thought it would be this much
fun to be a kid again?"

"What about the other boys?" Yves asked, pointedly. "Langly, Byers and Jimmy have
got to be somewhere out there too.....not to mention Dave, who could be anywhere he
wants."

"Not here, he can't." Jeanie spoke up. "I could snuff him out here."

Susan nodded. "Okay, everyone get to your places....and someone see if we can find
another hostage."

"Will we have to hog-tie this one too?" Glory asked, hopefully.

Abby shrugged. "Depends on who it is." She remarked, with a grin. "It would be really
cute to see Carter hog-tied, but we can't catch him if he's with Ardeth."

"Not entirely." Yves cut in. "Ardeth has a limit to his power."

Susan frowned. "He does?" She asked.

Glory grinned. "Six feet." She told them. "He has to be within six feet of you to change
you."

Abby frowned. "Well that still makes catching him kind of difficult." She reminded them.
"You kind of have to be within six feet to catch him."

Buffy grinned. "Not if you set a trap." She suggested.
********************************************************************

Meanwhile, in the security office, Langly sat at one of the keyboards, typing various
commands.

"Are you almost in yet?" Doug demanded, impatiently, from where he and Jimmy were
guarding the door."

"Give him a minute." Byers snapped, from where he was standing behind Langly. "How
ya doing?"

Langly frowned, shaking his head as if to clear it. "Working on it." He muttered.

"You okay?" Byers asked, frowning.

Langly pulled his fingers away from the keyboard and massaged his temples. "Okay, this
is really pathetic." He remarked, moaning. "This thing is not working. Now I'm ashamed."

"Are you alright, Langly?" Jimmy asked, coming over to him.

"I don't know." Langly remarked, closing his eyes, to think a minute.

Jimmy's and Byers' mouths nearly hit the floor at the same time. "Langly?" Jimmy spoke
up, staring at the computer screen. "What did you just do?"

"Huh?" Langly looked up at the screen and stared. Somehow the cameras had come up,
without him touching the keyboard. He frowned and stared at the screen, concentrating.

"Wow." Byers said, in awe. "I think we got it."

"Bout time." Doug muttered, turning. "Hey, how'd he do that?"

Langly's frown turned to a grin. "Holy crap, I think I have a talent!" He stated, laughing.
"I can talk to this thing!"

Jimmy stared. "Are you serious?" He asked.

"Oh yeah." Langly answered, cracking his knuckles, and returning his hands to the key
board. He resumed typing, while concentrating on the computer itself. "All the cameras
are up and I think I got the lights, security systems, and a whole load of other stuff."

"You see the girls anywhere?" Jimmy asked.

Langly frowned. "No." He confessed. "There's a few down cameras."

"Where are the cameras down?" Doug demanded.

"Roof, OB, a couple places in the third and fifth floors, and even a couple of the ones we
put up." Langly reported. "Everything else is still up."

Jimmy and Byers looked through the working cameras. "Hey, Jonathan ZombieMaster is
still in the morgue." Jimmy spoke up, pointing.

"Thus explaining the walking dead guys all over the hospital." Byers remarked, rolling
his eyes.

"Woah, hold it." Langly spoke up, grinning. "Got someone!"

"Who is it?" Doug asked.

Langly studied the camera. "Romano and Corday." He told them. "They're not in on the
game."

"What are they doing?" Doug asked, looking closer.

Langly frowned at the screen, and it panned closer. "I can't tell what they're doing."
He replied. "Heading for the vent shaft from the looks of it."

"See anyone else?" Jimmy asked, looking at the other screens.

"No, I don't see Yves." Langly retorted, knowingly. "Although we can assume she's
tampered with cameras."

"So we check the places where the cameras are out." Doug suggested.

Langly and Byers exchanged a look. "I wouldn't." Byers informed him.

Doug frowned. "Why?" He asked. "They're not on the camera, so they've got to be
somewhere the cameras are down."

Jimmy grinned. "No they won't." He spoke up. "I know Yves and they would go the last
place you'd think to look."

Langly nodded. "He's right. Yves tampered with the cameras, so that means they could
be anywhere."

"Which means we really have to go now." Jimmy pointed out. "Because Yves also knows
you guys, and this is the first place she'll look."

"Right. Let's go." Langly concluded. "Before they hog tie all of us."

"We need to find Carter and Ardeth." Byers told them.

"Found Carter, Ardeth and Creepy....um...and the singing green horse....along with a
couple of girls who look to be part of the Evil Trio." Langly stated, triumphantly. "Along
with Cassi and Sven."

"Where?" Doug asked.

"Main ER lobby.....they're dancing." Langly went on.

Jimmy grinned. "Well the music is pretty good." He told them, laughing.

Langly shook his head. "Author's work." He remarked, sighing. "I could have stopped
it, but I thought it was best not to."

"Good idea." Doug mused. "Cassi and Sven tend to get upset when people shut off their
music."

Jimmy laughed and danced as they headed down the hall. "I love this song!" He said
with a snicker. "Although I never really this version of it."

"She Drives Like Crazy." Doug spoke up. "Weird Al."

"It would be." Langly remarked, rolling his eyes.
*********************************************************************

In the main lobby, Emmy was now singing with the song....mainly because it described
her driving, and she knew it.

Becca was now riding on Fiddles, who was dancing all over the place, and the nurses had
all stopped to watch.

The morphine junkies, on the other hand, continued their lightsaber battle, knocking
various items all over the place and even suceeded in actually killing a few people who got
too close to the action. Amongst them were Pratt, who had tried to stop them, and
Gunn, Cosmo, and Mulder, who had just gotten in the way. On top of that, no one really
knew who had done it. All three had claimed the other ones had done it.

Cassi and Sven, who were still singing, were completely ignoring the whole battle, except
briefly, to write down who had died, and how.

The bodies had been carted into Curtain three by Mungo and Teazer, who had come along
in case someone had died. **Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer: ie Mr and Mrs. Miracle Max.
They bring back our dead bodies....the only other one who knows how to make the miracle
pill is Carter.....go figure.**

In the doorway of the ER, a group had just entered, unnoticed.

Agent Frank Donovan looked around, quietly observing the scene before them. "Singing
dancing green horse...dead people...Evilauthors singing.....bunch of five year olds wrecking
the place...." He mused.

"Just like normal." Monica finished.

"Yeah, I was coming to that." Frank remarked.

"Ooh, can I be five, too?" Cody asked, grinning.

Alex Cross snickered. "Somehow I'm not surprised at that." She told him.

"Aww, come on." Cody retorted, nudging her. "Didn't you ever want to be five again?"

Alex grinned. "Oh yeah." She answered. "What about you, boss?"

Frank gave a laugh. "I don't think so." He retorted. "They already have Ardeth. They
really don't need two of us running around."

Frank (the big desk clerk dude) suddenly stared at the people in the doorway. "How many
of those guys are there?" He demanded.

"Five." Becca informed him, counting the FBI Agents. "I'm five years old right now and
I can count. Why can't you?"

Frank glared at her. "I mean of THOSE guys!" He muttered, pointing at Donovan.

"One." Emmy told him. "Even Becca's cousin can count THAT high."

Donovan started laughing, and approached the Evil Authors. "I see you two are up to your
old tricks." He spoke up, sitting down on the counter next to Cassi.

"Yeah, it's fun." Sven told him.

"Hey, who do I have to see to be five?" Cody asked, eagerly. "I wanna be a kid again!"

Sven shrugged, and snapped her fingers, changing Cody into a five year old.

"Hey, you were kind of cute, Cody." Alex spoke up, smiling. "What happened?"

Frank, Monica, and Jake started laughing.

"Funny." Cody retorted, flatly.

"Anyone else?" Cassi asked, looking at Alex and Jake.

Alex appeared to think about it. "Sure, why not?" She replied.

Cassi snapped her fingers, changing Alex, and looked at Jake. "Next?"

Jake frowned, then grinned. "Okay." He spoke up. "You going too, Monica?"

Monica shook her head. "I don't think so." She told him, laughing. "You kids go have
fun. I'll stay with Frank."

Sven shrugged, and snapped her fingers, changing Jake. "So, what do you wanna do to
remedy the bordum tomorrow, Cas?" She asked.

Cassi thought about it. "The same thing we do every time we get bored." She answered,
grinning. "Torture the masses of characters we have working for us."

Weaver shook her head, sighing. "I think you people have way too much time on your
hands." She spat out.

Cassi turned toward her and answered in her best 'Romano-I-am-the-Chief-of-Staff-and-
won't-be-ignored' voice. "Well did anyone ask you, Kerry? NO! Shut up!"
********************************************************************

End section 25. We regret to have to say this, but we really have to end this pretty soon.
There will be probably a few more chapters, but we really have to end the fun, and get
back to the spoofs. Sorry, there was not really any Carter in this part, but he will have to
be in the beginning of the next section, because he IS in the lobby, we have the rescue
of Mysti Q and Jing Mei to come...we STILL have no clue as to what Corday and Romano
have in mind, but they WILL be ending it with a bang. And Becca, Mid is STILL chasing
Sparkles. ^_^

We'll bring in a few new characters, but if you want in, hurry it up because there's not much
left till the end of the day. For now, give us your reviews and we'll see what happens next.
