An Unexpected Turn Of Events:

The party was well under way and everyone was having lots of fun.

Ryan was trying to gain a better understanding of the differences between this world and his fanfics. It still intrigued him that there were differences, since the world he entered should have only contained the parameters he specified: episodes and fanfics.

He asked Vakko, "what was it like having two minds in one?" trying to get Vakko's take on having Xakko in his head.

"Well," said Vakko, "that was pretty weird. And even after having his mind removed, I still have the occasional flash of anger if someone pisses me off…as if having his influence for so long changed something in my decision-making process."

Vakko was about to delve deeper into his thoughts about the subject, and looked up at the stars to collect his thoughts. He leaned on the railing of the water tower, which suddenly broke, causing him to fall into Dot's garden. WakkoRyan and the Warners laughed out loud, although Dot did not laugh quite as loud since one of her bushes had just been crushed.

"That looks like fun, Vakko! Maybe I'll do it later, too!" said WakkoRyan jestingly.

No response.

"Hey Vakko, you alright?"

No response.

The Warners looked at WakkoRyan, and WakkoRyan looked back, both sides with signs of concern on their faces. They raced down the ladder and arrived at Vakko's unmoving figure in the bushes. Yakko shook him slightly, which caused him to stir, with his blue eyes glazed and moving about unfocused in random directions. WakkoRyan helped Yakko get Vakko to a nearby wooden bench. He still appeared to be on the edge of consciousness, but barely.

"You two go and get Hello Nurse and Dr. Scratchansniff, and quickly!" said WakkoRyan to Wakko and Dot.

Wakko and Dot swiftly took off to do so.

Yakko and WakkoRyan briefly watched the two youngest sibs run toward the office. Little did they know, so was the toon sitting between them on the bench, out of the corner of his barely open eye.

Yakko and WakkoRyan returned their attention back to Vakko, who appeared to be coming to a bit more, but still had his eyes closed.

"What happened?" he said in a barely audible, groggy voice, his eyes remaining closed.

"You fell off of the water tower and landed on your head," said WakkoRyan. "We don't know how you actually got injured since you are a toon, but just stay put. Wakko and Dot are getting some help for you."

"I think I might know why I was injured," Vakko said, bent over with his hands over his face and his voice still shaky. "I can't think straight enough to put it in the right words, but basically you are real, so some stuff here is becoming real."

WakkoRyan considered the statement. "That is a possibility," he said. "Maybe it would be best if I left after we make sure Vakko is allright," he said to Yakko.

"Actually, you should leave immediately," Yakko said. "Since you created Vakko by writing about him, you can write a happy ending to this story. In fact, maybe you could write a way in that fixes this situation, so that you can come back again and nothing bad will happen!"

WakkoRyan marveled at Yakko's creative suggestion. "Wow, great idea!" he said. "I wonder if what is happening right now is coming up as printing on the screen…I guess there's only one way to find out."

WakkoRyan started to turn to go back to the portal hidden at 123 Fake Street, but Vakko stopped him.

"Wait!" he said, his voice still raspy. He continued to hold his hands over his face.

WakkoRyan came back and sat on the bench to the right of Vakko.

"Yes, Vakko?" he said.

"You agree that we can get injured like in the real world ?"

"Yes."

"And maybe even killed?"

"Maybe."

Vakko removed his hands from his face by rubbing them down his face, knocking his bangs into his face at the same time. He then opened his eyes and stared at WakkoRyan from a distance of just a few inches. His eyes were now red. "Just making sure."
