And we're back again. Okay, we understand that a few people are having trouble reviewing
due to the fact that fanfiction.net is sometimes a pain. Anyhow, we're willing to overlook
that.....so Email us instead! If we don't know you read it, you don't exist.....okay, we're
bitter people. Sorry. Now....for a bit of clearing of some confusion, we'll mention that the
insanity breaks are like commercials. If you don't want to read them, just skip over them.
We just tend to enjoy suddenly bringing up something that has absolutely nothing to do
with the stories. Instead of giving you a preview this time, we'll just go right ahead and
pick up the story where we left off......Romano & Lizzie rushing to stop the maniacs before
they start the game which can, and probably will, destroy the entire hospital......Romano &
Lizzie weren't fast enough. And the match goes to the maniacs......hehe...maniac humor.

CHAPTER FIVE: MOSQUITOS AND LIONS AND MONKEYS, OH MY!
**************************************************************
In the ER Admit area, Romano and Elizabeth had just caught up with Shirley and Peter.
"We can't find them anywhere." Peter informed them.
Romano shook his head. "Pippin's got that stupid game in the building." He told them.
Peter stared. "Tell me they're not playing it." He begged.
Elizabeth shook her head. "He could, but he'd have to lie." She answered. "They ran off
with Ardeth, Carter, Jing Mei, Dave, Mohawk and Stripe."
"Who's they, and what game?" Shirley asked.
"Sven and Pippin." Romano told her. "They have Jumanji in the hospital."
Shirley's mouth dropped. "Wait, I saw that movie." She whispered. "We have to find
them before they start that thing. They'll destroy the whole hospital."
They were interrupted by several loud screams, and they all turned to see a load of large
mosquitos come flying through.
Romano yanked Shirley and Elizabeth to the floor, just as the cloud flew over. Several
people, nurses included, were shrieking and trying to fight the bugs off.
Elizabeth jumped up from the floor with a glare. "Oh no you don't." She muttered,
drawing the bugs' attention.
As they flew toward her, her glare deepened and the ones in the front burst into flames.
The other mosquitos, seeing this, proceeded to fly out the door.
Romano was groaning into his hand. "Nice work, Lizzie." He remarked, flatly. "Now
they're outside, thus insuring that we'll have a full ER by nightfall."
"Assuming there's anything left of it by the time they're done." Shirley answered,
allowing Romano and Peter to help her off the floor.
Romano's eyes narrowed. "Right, now we find that group of maniacs." He snapped.
"I don't think we're going to have to look very hard." Susan spoke up, pointing.
They all turned to see Mohawk and Stripe running with Dave and Chen. "Here kitty
kitty..." Mohawk called.
Romano stared. "Get out of the way!" He shouted to anyone near, as the lion came
running out into the ER.
"Lock it in the Exam room!" Dave yelled to Stripe.
"Awww, we wanted to see it eat the people!" Stripe complained.
Romano's face turned thoughtful. "Lock it in Trauma one!" He called, with a devious
tone.
"Robert!" Elizabeth scolded. "How COULD you?! MUNGO'S in there!"
"It's okay!" Dave retorted. "We can put Kerry in Exam three with the lion."
About ten minutes later, Kovac, Gallant, Peter, and Dave sat down panting, as they had
finally gotten the lion locked into Exam three.
Romano glared at Dave, who gave a guilty look. "If you still worked here, I'd have you
fired." He proclaimed. "However, since you don't, I'm having you killed instead." At
this, he reached over, picked up a spider from the floor and threw it on Dave. Naturally,
the spider bit him, killing him.
As Dave dropped to the floor, Sven, Pippin, Carter, and Ardeth ran in.
"Ahhh CRAP!" Sven yelled. "It's HIS turn!"
Romano glared at Pippin. "I thought I told you NOT to bring that game in here!" He
snapped.
"You did, but I said he could, and I'm one of the Authors, so I have higher authority than
you." Sven reminded him. "Besides, once we finish the game, it all goes back to normal."
"Except for the spiders." Pippin spoke up.
"And the gremlins." Stripe reminded them.
"And the dead people." Carter added.
Sven snapped her fingers, bringing Dave back to life. "Dave, you have to roll, it's your
turn." She ordered.
The group proceeded to sit down on the floor in the middle of the ER.
"Wait a minute, if you think you're playing that game in the middle of MY ER, you've
got another thing coming!" Romano interrupted.
"But Cassi's Chief of Staff now, so it's really her ER." Sven retorted.
"Cassi may be Chief of Staff, but I'm Chief of the ER." Romano argued.
"No, that's my job now." Sven informed him. "Dave, roll the dice."
Nearby, Cassi, who had joined the group in the ER, unnoticed, shook her head. "Crying
shame is what it is." She remarked to Gallant. "All these Chiefs and no indians."
"Are you letting them get away with this?" Gallant asked her.
Cassi shrugged. "Look at the bright side." She said with a smile. "When the bats come,
they'll eat the spiders.....or the spiders will eat the spiders.....either way, the spiders get
eaten......and if you understood that one, you're good."
Dave, looked over at Romano, with a apologetic face. "Sorry, Chief." He told him,
dropping the dice.
"This will not be an easy mission, monkeys slow the expidition." Chen read. "Lovely,
here come the monkeys."
Romano leaned against the Admit desk, groaning, as the crashes sounded from the
lounge. "I hate this game." He muttered.
"You want to lock them in the lounge?" Susan asked.
*********************************************************************
Up on the surgical floor, Anspaugh had just arrived. He was greeted with an entire
recovery room full of dead people. Jacey and a few of the other nurses were frantic, and
couldn't say what had happened. "Where is Corday?" Anspaugh demanded.
"She was paged to the ER." Jacey answered. "And there's some disgusting white
sticky string all over the hallway near the elevators."
"Are there any surgeons still up here?" Anspaugh asked.
"Dorsett, Edson, and a few of the residents." Jacey answered. "Shirley went downstairs
with Dr. Corday, Dr. Benton, and Dr. Romano."
Anspaugh frowned. "What is Dr. Benton doing at County, and what is Romano doing up
here?!" He questioned.
"I don't know a thing about it, but there was obviously some emergency in the ER."
The nurse replied.
"I don't suppose they said what kind of emergency?" Anspaugh prompted.
Jacey shook her head. "No, they didn't." She answered. "I did hear they've had a few
deaths down there, too."
Anspaugh's eyes narrowed. "I think it's time I went down there." He concluded.
*********************************************************************
In the ER, the monkeys had escaped.....unfortunately. They were now split up, some had
headed out the door, while some had remained in the hospital. The ones in the hospital
were now playing all over the place with the gremlins, riding on crash carts, wheelchairs,
food carts, etc...Needless to say, there were no more patients left. Why, you ask? Well,
because they were all either dead, or they had left....not that Romano blamed them. He
was very near heading straight home to sleep it off. There was, however, a good thing
about the game. After the monkeys, Carter had rolled the dice and he and Ardeth were
then stuck in the game.
It was currently Sven's turn, and just before she could roll the dice, Anspaugh stepped off
the elevator.....making Romano's day all the more worse.
"What the [heck] is going on here?!" Donald demanded.
Cassi made a face. "Look, Fat Butt's back." She muttered to Romano under her breath.
Hearing this, four gremlins started dancing around, chanting the phrase, "Fat Butt" over
and over.....much to ol' Fat Butt's dismay.
Sven looked over, hearing the chant. "Oh look, Dr. Fat Butt has come to stop us." She
spoke up in flat emotionless tone. "Help help, run for the hills...save yourself."
Romano pasted on a happy grin. "Don!" He called out. "How nice of you to come down."
Anspaugh glared at Cassi, who stuck her tongue out. "I came to see how we ended up
with an entire recovery room full of dead people." He informed them. "However, looking
around here, I can easily see how. Now does someone want to explain the mess in the
hallway upstairs?"
Elizabeth rolled her eyes as if it were plainly obvious....and it was...and pointed at the
group of people crowded around the game. "That would be Mohawk over there." She
said in a 'duh' tone of voice.
"And the dead people are spiders." Romano explained. "The Authors had nothing to do
with them being here. We're pretty sure Jeffery followed Carter to work."
"Who is Jeffery and where is Carter?" Anspaugh demanded.
Romano rolled his eyes. "Carter's stuck in the game right now." He told the older man.
"And Jeffery....well, we haven't found him yet."
"I wouldn't really say that." An accented voice spoke up from across the room.
They turned to see Dr. A standing in the doorway. On his shoulder, was a humongous
spider. "He says he wants to know where Carter is."
Romano and Elizabeth exchanged a glance. "In the game." They replied.
Sven, from her seat on the floor, was watching the argument, interested. "Um....hello, it's
my turn to roll." She spoke up.
No one turned, as they were not paying attention.
Pippin looked at her and shrugged. "Just roll the dice." He told her.
Sven, watching the group, shook her head. "Oh well, they'll figure it out as we go."
She remarked, dropping the dice.
"They grow much faster then bamboo. Take care or they'll come after you." Dave read.
Sven grinned. "Yeah, that oughta get their attention." She stated. "Let's get out of here."
Pippin nodded and picked up the game as the vines started to grow from every available
surface.
Elizabeth turned to see what had happened, and yanked Robert out of the way just before
a vine grabbed a nearby gremlin, and carried it off.
"WOAH!" Gallant cried as he jumped away from the wall.
"Well, this just got more interesting." Cassi remarked.
*********************************************************************
And you ask why I had to cut it off here? Well, that's because I went totally blank on what
to write. That and my hands are really hurting from typing. On top of it, Sven and I are
both having trouble with our wrists, due to excess typing and writting. Therefore, we
should cut down just a tiny bit.
Now how's about a few reviews?
