A Fantastic Story
Chapter 5 - On Fire!

A few minutes earlier…

Joey sat in his room, getting dressed when a nurse came in.

"Hang on, where do you think your going?" She said.

"I don't think you've noticed but I'm not sick. So I'm going to find my friends," Joey replied.

"But you can't leave until we've completed the tests."

"I know, I know, but listen I've had enough test to last me a life time. It's just…"

Suddenly the nurse stuck a thermometer into his mouth. The temperature on it started going up really fast.

"Wow, you're hot!"

"Well, why thank you, so are you. You don't hold it back do you?"

"No, I mean you fell a little feverish," she said as she put her hand on Joey's forehead.

"Well, I fell fine."

"Huh, the machine must be broken or something," she replied as she took the thermometer out from Joey's mouth, she then turned away from Joey to put it down on the table.

"Yeah. But to think, if this thing was right, I'd be one fire!"

This triggered something, but Joey didn't fell a thing. When the nurse turned back round, she was horrified at what she saw.

"Ah! You're on fire!" she screamed before she ran out of the room.

Joey sat back down on the bed in confusion, but suddenly it caught on fire.

"Ah!" Joey screamed as he instantly jumped up and tried to put it out with his hands, but this only made the fire worse! Suddenly, Joey realised his hands were on fire. "Aahh!" He then realised his whole body was covered in the flames. But something didn't fell right. "Wait a sec, I fell…fine. How can that be?"

The fire from the bed soon spends, which set the whole room on fire, with Joey standing right in the middle. Suddenly, the fire alarm went off, which activated the sprinklers.

When it was put out, Joey still stood in the middle of the room, but all his clothes had been burnt off!


Yugi and Tea finally reached the Joey's hospital room. Just as they arrived, Joey came out of his room with just a towel wrapped around his waist.

"Hey guys, you are not going to believe what happened to me!" Joey said as he saw his friends. Yugi and Tea both looked at him in confusion of what he was wearing. "Oh, I can explain this."

"Yugi…" Tea said as she realised what could of happened to Joey. Yugi nodded back at her.

"What?" Joey asked in confusion.

"Well…" Yugi began before they all heard a very loud scream of pain that echoed through out the hospital. They all recognised the scream. "I'll explain on the way, come on!"

All three of them ran towards the room where the familiar screams were coming from.
