Chapter 4: Dash to Doctor's Disorders

The next day, Mac went looking for Wilt, Coco, Eduardo, and Bloo. He hung up posters, taped signs, handed out fliers to everyone, and painted billboards. But they didn't respond. Mac felt so lonely without them.

Verse 7 Lyrics

I feel so blue and lonely now,

but I never felt like this for now,

I am a lonely tie and bow, was it me…that drove you away?

Because I am willing to give up all that I own,

To make sure you return safely, a place where you call home.

I never had friends like you,

but I could anything to scare you…Boo!

But I'd not be surprised if you sued, me, with my dignity.

I just want my friends back so our friendship will come back.

But hopefully you'll be okay, and don't hit the sack. For good!

My best friend, Bloo

My best friend, Bloo

Verse 7 ends

Mac looked everywhere for his friends. But they were no where to be found.

"Guy, where are you?" He shouted. "Wilt? Eduardo? Coco? Bloo? WHERE ARE YOU GUYS! I wish someone would answer me!"

"Okay. I like paddleball." Someone said.

"BLOO!" Mac screamed. He ran towards the figure but stopped. He saw that it wasn't Bloo.

"I'm not Bloo, silly. I'm your imaginary friend, Spongebob Squarepants. Don't you recognize me?" He said. It was Spongebob Squarepants. Mac's other imaginary friend.

Mac had accidentally created the Spongebob Squarepants crew on July 17th, 2005. Spongebob Squarepants was adopted by a little girl, but dumped.

"Spongebob, is that you?" he asked, still crying.

"Of course it is. Why? What's wrong with you? You look like you haven't smiled in days."

"That's because my friends ran away. I said something that made them feel bad. So they ran away."

"What? Oh man, that's harsh. I've gone through that too. I lost my pet snail, Gary. It took me days to find him. What happened?"

"I know what happened." A familiar voice said. It was Patrick. "Mac was having major sleep deprivation. So it was affecting his friendship."

"Wow. That's right!" Mac said.

"Sleep deprivation? Oh man, are you alright?" Spongebob asked. He hadn't seen Mac in months, but he knew what Sleep Deprivation was. "Dude, we have to get you to the hospital. If we don't, this could be very bad."

"What?" Mac stared at him for a while. Then, it happened. The dizziness kicked it. Mac started to close his eyes as he got dizzier and dizzier. Soon, he fell into Spongebob's arms. "Patrick, get a stretcher! Mac's in trouble."

"Where can I find…uh, oh. Found it!" Patrick said. He picked up the stretcher and put Mac on it as they carried him.

Meanwhile, they bumped into Mac's friends.

"Mac, is he okay? Oh, hello Spongebob?" Eduardo said.

"Hi, Ed. No, Mac is very sick. Come on. Carry him to the hospital!" Spongbob said.

"Eduardo…Wilt…Coco…Bloo…I…found…you." Mac said weakly and fell unconscious again.

"Oh no! We have to hurry!"

"Guys, I heard Mac! Mac! HE'S HURT! Oh, hi Spongebob and Patrick." Frankie said, running the corner.

"Hi!"

Verse 8 Lyrics

Just when I thought it was a final end,

It happened and I got sick again.

But Spongebob I met because he's a friend, who can help me.

I thought you were going to die, because I was so hard on you.

But now I realized that's it is me, which could die because I was a stupid poo.

I never had a friend, just like you.

But maybe my friend isn't a sue.

He's definitely not a baby cue,

But he's my imaginary friend, Bloo

My best friend, Bloo.

My best friend, Bloo.

Verse 8 ends

Spongebob and friends raced to the hospital to save Mac's life.

"Man, it's been so long since Mac got sick." Wilt said.

"What do you mean?" Patrick asked. He barely remembers the six of them.

"Well, a few months ago, Mac got really sick from Leukemia. And this really cool man helped us. Enough of this! Let's hurry Mac to the hospital! I don't think he'll make it!"

"Let's do it!" Spongebob said.

"Are you guys talking about me?" Bloo asked, holding the stretcher up.

"Why wouldn't we? Of course we're not! Now, there's the hospital, Mac is in trouble."

"I heard everything!" A nurse said. "Let's get this poor boy into a wheelchair and hope for the best." She took Mac and took her temperature. "GOOD LORD, MAN!"

"Wait, I think I..."

"No time! We have to move! If this kid doesn't get into a bed, soon, it could be over for him." Mac was carried off to a hospital operating room. Mac was going to die. Or was he? Spongebob and Sandy, Spongebob's friend, knew exactly what to do to cure Mac. But they didn't have much time.

The operation went on for hours. But Mac was finally cured!

"Well, Mr. Kazoo, you gave us quite a scare, there." The doctor said.

"So, am I going to be okay?" Mac asked as he laid there in his bed. He was about to fall asleep. "Well, yes. But it was a very close call." The doctor said looking at him firmly.

"Your test results say that you were very close to Sleep Deprivation Shock."

"What exactly is Sleep Deprivation Shock?" Mac asked, weakly.

"Well, it's a terrible glitch in your brain. It's the part that controls your traits. When the human doesn't get enough sleep, or any sleep for that matter, that part of the brain begins to weaken. But when Sleep Deprivation is extended to longer periods of time, that part of the brain starts to shut down. That's not good. Mac, have you experienced Sleep Deprivation in the past?"

"Well, actually, yes. There was this one time where my next door neighbor, was pestering her parents about getting her things. it kept me up all night. Then, the next day, I sabotaged her all night trying to frame her so she'd move away."

"Pitiful. Not a good idea." The doctor said. "With that, they Sleep Deprivation could start again. I suggest you do something about it."

"What? What could I possibly do?"

Just then, Spongbob, Plankton, Squidward, and Mr. Krabs, and Patrick came crashing into the room.

Plankton, is Mr. Krabs arch enemy. Plankton has wanted the Krabby Patty secret formula for years. Squidward is Spongebob's next door neighbor. He despises his neighbors. Mr. Krabs is Spongebob's boss. Spongebob works at the Krusty Krab.

"Squidward, you said that Mac was under attack by plasma." Spongebob said.

"No I didn't." Squidward replied. "I said he had an Asthma attack. DUH!"

"What? I…I don't have Asthma." Mac said, yet his doctor looked at him firmly again.

"Yeah, about that," The doctor began.

"Guys, this could end very badly." Spongebob said. "Let's leave."

A few hours later

Mac lied in his bed. He was researching Sleep Deprivation Shock. While Bloo hung out in his room, challenging Spongebob to a paddleball contest. Spongebob won.

"You feeling better, pal?" Bloo asked.

"Much better, Bloo." Mac said. But Mac's very loud yawn signaled Bloo and Spongebob to leave his room. Mac fell asleep for a while.

"How is Master Mac?" Mr. Herriman asked them.

"He'll be…" Bloo was smacked by Spongebob trying to do paddleball and beat The Dirty Bubble.

"Darn it." He said. "Oh, Mac? He's fine. But you know what they say, a daytime nap never harmed the benefactor."

"Huh?"

"Oh that just means Mac needs a daytime nap."

"Every single day?" Frankie asked. "That doesn't seem right to me."

"Well, the doctor said if he doesn't Sleep Deprivation shock could happen again. If that happens, then Mac could, you know, Kick the Bucket. So just mak…"

"WHAT DID YOU SAY? I DON'T BELIEVE IT!" Frankie said. "I don't want to lose him."

"Don't worry, Frankie." Spongebob said. "Mac will be back to his normal self in a few days. But you have to be nicer to him and more understanding of him so it doesn't happen again. Understand?"

"Yes."

"Okay, oh and visiting hours began. You can go visit him now." Frankie, Wilt, Bloo, Eduardo, and Coco went in Mac's room to see him.

Verse 9 Lyrics

I always knew you wouldn't leave

Because I always wanted you to see

That I was a fool and you would keep, your happiness and take us back

But I'm not going to let a single thing stop us from being friends

Because I love you all the time, and hope our friendship lasts to the end

I never had friends just like you

But my very best friend is my imaginary friend Bloo.

But that doesn't mean that I neglect you, and cast you in the street


I'm sorry if I took you for granted, but I know you can't be beat.

My best friend, Bloo

My best friend, Bloo

You're my best friend, Bloo

Verse 9 ends

Meanwhile in Mac's hospital room, Bloo was trying to beta the paddleball world record, and the others were talking to Mac.

"Guys, I am so sorry about what I say earlier." Mac said. "I never thought you'd run away."

"It's okay, Mac. But we never thought Duchess would be the cause of you're Sleep Deprivation." Wilt said.

"DUH!" Someone said. It was Squidward. "Why do you think those veins in his eyes kept appearing? For another thing, why do you think in the past he was a snore-fest nimrod?"

"You know, I can hear everything you say." Mac said.

"He knows." Sandy said. Mac just stared at her like she was insulting him.

"Oh Mac, lighten up. I was just joking."

"I know."

"Hey, we have a special surprise for you when you get back. Okay?"

"Sure."

Spongebob and the others left the room to let Mac sleep.

"Mac, I just want to ask you a question before we leave." Wilt said. "What the heck is Sleep Deprivation?"

"It's when you don't get enough sleep, or any sleep for that matter." Mac answered. He yawned so loudly Patrick accidentally hit him with Spongebob's paddleball. But it broke.

"Nice going, pal." Spongebob said.

"Sorry."

"Let's go home. Mac needs to stay here for a while." Frankie said. "So he stays healthy. We'll come back on visiting days, okay?"

"Okay." Mac fell asleep holding a Krusty Krab uniform.

End.

The story is over, but I promised I'd rewrite the entire song again. I will. So Music day, (chapter 5) is coming soon. And stay tuned for the sequel, Mac, The Christmas Slayer. Coming soon!
