Chapter Three:
A week after the "crazed fans" incident, everyone paid a close eye of attention to who was around them when they left after a show..They didn't want to get attacked again...Well, on the way to Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada..They stopped at Riding Mountain, a national park in Manitoba...While hiking through woods, Marco thought he saw a squirrel running mad through the forest, curious of this he did watch where he was going and the next thing he knew..He had tripped, him falling on his face.
Tomika: Watch where you're going, buddy
Marco: I..um..I saw something and was watching it..
Summer: So, you fell? Good excuse, Marco..But, we're not buying it..You tripped, who cares..Now get up (Summer helped him up and they started walking again)
This time, Zack saw a squirrel running across the road, he shouted out to It..This squirrel hissed ferociously at Zack, looking ready to attack.
Zack: Damn!
Katie: Get away from it! It looks rabid or something
Dewey: It's probably just afraid of us..We're not something little things like this are use too
Dewey put his hand down to grab the squirrel, but It was smarter that it looked..The tiny creature, jumped at Dewey and bit his hand, clinging onto him.
Dewey: Get it off of me!
Summer: I'm not touching that thing..Katie is probably right
Dewey: Rabid? What the hell you guys? Do you want me to get rabies, then give it to you?
Freddy: Good point
The kids ripped the squirrel off of Dewey's hand and threw it as far as they could, then running as fast as they could away..When the squirrel zipped from where they had left him, chasing the band.
Gordon: What the...Why is it doing this?
Summer: IT'S RABID!!!!
All of them screamed, and continued running. When they knew that they were far enough away from the squirrel, everyone stopped, gasping for breath. They realized that they were by the souvenir shop.
Summer: That was so fricking scary
Dewey: You're telling me that? I was the one who almost got my hand ripped off by that thing!
Tomika: Dewey, It wasn't that...
All of a sudden, Dewey dropped to the ground and started flailing around...Foaming at the mouth..Everyone screamed, and dropped on the ground next to their band leader.
Katie: Dewey!
Alicia: Holy shit! He's foaming from the mouth!
Summer: He's convulsing! Rabies! Frankie, go get help!
Frankie ran as fast as he ever had before, jumping through the door of the souvenir shop, knocking over a couple of things then slamming into the cashier.
Cashier: Hey! Watch where you're going!
Frankie (out of breath): Rabid - squirrels - Dewey - has - rabies!
Cashier: Rabid squirrels? I thought we got rid of all those damn things! Where is this guy?
Frankie ran out of the building, the cashier following him...When they got to Dewey, he was still flailing around, like he was having a seizure. The cashier sat next to him, and pulled out a cell-phone from his pocket, dialed a number and then talked.
Cashier: This is Brad. We need an ambulance outside of the souvenir shop, immediately..It was the squirrels
Summer: He's going into Cardiac Arrest!
Brad: No...All he needs is a couple of shots...And some time in the hospital
Gordon: How do you know?
Brad: I just do
Summer: This has happened before hasn't it?
Brad: Um..Yes (Summer hits him)
Summer: No one had the sense to shut the park down..The nerve of the park rangers here!
The ambulance pulls up and takes Dewey away. Leaving the thirteen year old to wonder..."How the hell are we getting out of here?"
Katie: How the hell are we getting out of here?
Freddy: Don't worry...I have an idea
---------------------------------------------------------------
With Freddy in the drivers seat, he drove off after the ambulance..Summer's head hitting against the passengers seat, and Zack feeling sick to his stomach.
Summer: Slow down, Jones
Zack: You're going way to fast..Someone could pulls us over!
Freddy: I'm trying to slow down guys..I can't drive, It's too hard for me
Tomika: That's pretty obvious
Freddy: At least I'm trying
Katie Try a little harder, Spaz-case
Gordon: Um, Freddy..
Freddy: What?
Everyone by Freddy: Watch out!
Freddy just realized that he had just got onto the highway, still following the ambulance..He was also in the wrong lane, everyone was screaming. Freddy quickly pulled into the opposite lane then the one he was in before, after coming very close to hitting a corvette.
Eleni: Damn it! Watch where you're going! (Hits Freddy)
Freddy: You're not my sister anymore...You're too mean
Summer: My throat hurts from screaming so much
Freddy: I can't believe that almost happened! That car was off-the-hook..I don't know what I would of done if I had hit it!
Marta: What just happened?
Alicia: You should know you stupid little bitch
Freddy: You guys...There's the hospital
Freddy pulled into the hospital parking lot, trying to find a parking spot...Not really watching the road.
Frankie: Freddy! Watch the road!
Freddy: What?..Oh, shit!
Freddy swerved the van into the nearest free parking spot, just about hitting an old woman and little boy...He tuned the engine off, and started hitting his head against the steering wheel.
Freddy: I'm the worst driver on earth
Zack: You're right about that
Katie: Poor woman...No wonder everyone is so afraid of you..You cause disaster everywhere you go
Freddy: That is not true
Katie: You know it is..The IHOP incident, crazed fans and now this! I...
Leonard: We should really go inside and see if Dewey is okay
Tomika: He's got a point
We swung open the doors to the van, jumped back, shut them again and ran to the emergency room entrance...When we got in there, we saw a boy with no hair at all, running around the waiting room, screaming out incoherent sayings.
Boy: The pickles are coming! The pickles are coming! Save me! Save me, Bob Barker! The pickles are coming of Pat Sajak!
Nurse: Georgie, calm down..No one is after you..Just sit down
and shut up
The boy listened to her and sat down on the nearest chair to him...We walked over to the nurse, who was now stationed behind her desk.
Nurse: How may I help you?
Summer: Did an ambulance just come here carrying a rabid man in it?
Nurse: Yes..Are you family to this man?
Summer: Yes..His name is Dewey Finn
Nurse: Dewey Finn? Okay, I'll put that down here
Katie: Can we see him?
Nurse: No
Katie: Why the hell not?
Freddy: You guys..Let me work my charm..Dollface..Can we please
see him? They're might be something in it for you later tonight(Freddy winks at the nurse)
Nurse: Sweet..But, from a twenty-five year old model, maybe..But, from you..No
Summer: Whatever..Let's sit down
They waited for hours..Waiting for any news on Dewey..Three hours later, a man walked into the waiting room, carrying a clipboard.
Doctor: Family of Dewey Finn?
Summer: That's us (Everyone stood up)
Doctor: Okay..Mr. Finn is doing ok..You can see him now
Following the doctor, the band was lead into Dewey's hospital room...When they saw him, he was staring at them, smiling happily..The doctor left them alone.
Dewey: Hey, guys
Summer: Dewey! You're okay!
Dewey: Yeah..Sorry if I scared you
Katie: Us? Scared? No way
Dewey: How did you get here so fast?
Freddy: I drove
Dewey: My van? You let this lunatic drive my prized van?
Katie: Yeah..Dewey, um..Your drooling
Dewey: Oh..Sorry, the doctors said that will happen for a couple of days
Gordon: we can you get out?
Dewey: Next week
Zack: Damn..We have to cancel our concert tonight don't we?
Dewey: Yeah..Are you mad about that?
Tomika: No..We're just happy you're okay
Dewey: Thanks, dudes...Oh..I forgot to tell you..In Toronto, we're visiting my brother, sister-in-law, niece and five nephews
Freddy: Five? Wow...But, cool
