A/N: I went through a list of my old stories I started in 8th grade, and picked a select few to save. This one is going to be saved, despite the fact that its original fans are probably reading this in nursing homes…as I started it two years ago.

More than a few people were slightly shaken by the sight of a girl running through the hallways, screaming the name of a girl who once had her own TV show. Everyone in this story had spent the past two years either asleep or in a coma, simply because no one wrote anything else for them to do. Miraculously, everyone slowly began to wake up as the author finally logged on to update this sad excuse of a story. Penelope's eyes began to open as she uttered the familiar phrase, over and over in her mind.

"Amanda…" she murmured. "Amanda…plea…"

"Penelope?" a doctor's voice asked. "It seems as if everyone is finally waking up."

Penelope rolled over, and ripped the IV out of her arm. "How long have I been sleeping, please?" she demanded, picking herself up off the floor, and leaping to her feet.

"Do you remember who you are?" the doctor asked.

"You're wasting my life, where's Amanda?" she demanded, scrunching her nose and leaping to her feet.

"Please," the doctor said. "You must be in shock. I know I am, after spending two years being the only character left awake."

Penelope pointed her finger at the doctor accusingly. "I don't care about the sad story of your life! I'm here to find Amanda!"

"Amanda?" he asked.

"Amanda Baines?" Penelope demanded. "Oh, sweet mother! Tell me you've heard of the sweet Amanda Show!" a shadow crossed her face. "OH, NO! Two full years of Amanda's sweet show that I have NOT seen, please! Two years!"

"Wait…" the doctor said. He felt horrible, as if he were about to tell her of the death of a beloved pet. "I hate to say this, but I believe that show was cancelled."

Penelope's eyes slowly widened, and started to become dizzy. "You mean, no more comedy? No more sweet Amanda?"

"It's not like she died or anything," the doctor said, trying to calm the hysterical fan. "I think she's on a new show now…What I Like About You or something like that."

"And, WHO is the star?" Penelope demanded.

"I don't know…I think it's this wom…"

"YOU MEAN, please, that…someone made a show and sweet Amanda is NOT THE star? WHAT has this world come to?" she demanded.

Penelope fell to the floor and burst into tears.
