Hey guys! Who is excited for scorpion tonight? I am! Anyway, so I am now on spring break. So over this weekend, other than working on a new programming language, I'm going to try and get ahead on my writing so that my updates won't be affected by me visiting colleges and stuff. It still might get a little mixed up, but I'm going to try. Let me know what you think and send you my ideas

"I'm so done with being pregnant," Happy groaned as she brought Toby a mug of hot tea. She couldn't believe that he had gotten sick a day after her due date, November 10th. The baby was late, but she was told not to worry about that. Everything was healthy, and that's what mattered. Well, everything was healthy except for the father who had strep.

"I told you I could get the tea myself, Happy. You should be resting," Toby slurred to her from their bed.

"Oh shut up," Happy shushed him as she placed the mug down on the placed the mug down. "I am perfectly capable of doing this. I am just so fed up."

"Alright. Thank you, Hap." The phone began to ring. She quickly grabbed it and pressed answer. Only one person would call them at 9 in the morning on a Thursday that they had taken off.

"Walter," She greeted gruffly. "Yes...Toby can't come...Oh, ok...Yeah, I'll be there...Like twenty minutes...I know, but I'm told I'm not allowed to drive recklessly anymore...See you...Ok, Bye Walt." She put the phone down and picked up her bag from the chair in the corner of their room. "I gotta go," She announced.

"But," He started to complain.

"I'm doing anything hard," Happy dismissed. "Simply an advising role. We're going to the forest and Walter has to built something mechanical. No danger. I'm not even allowed to touch the device."

"But what about," He tried again.

"You'll be fine," Happy interrupted again. "Ralph has the day off of school, so Paige is dropping Ralph here."

"Great my stay in nurse is coming."


"This is the most boring job we have ever done," Happy decided. Walter shot her a glare from a couple feet away where he was doing hard physical labor. "If I didn't have a baby inside me, I would help you," She informed him. "Now, you need to dig another 2 feet down and then we can put the machine in the hole." The only people missing today were Cabe and Toby. Toby, obviously, because he was sick. Cabe was having a vacation. He had claimed that even 'the best' need some time off.

"Sylvester, " Walter called over the comms. "How long will digging down a circle with a .8 meter diameter in soil with a density of 1.6 grams per centimeter cubed take?"

"I don't think you want to know the answer to that question, Walt," Sylvester pointed out.

"He's right. It's going to be at least an hour, if not more," Happy laughed.

"Would you stop enjoying this so much?" Walter asked.

"Happy, don't be mean," Paige requested from beside Happy.

"Why aren't you helping?" Happy questioned.

"Hole isn't big enough for two people," Paige shrugged. "And of the two of is Walter is stronger, so therefore Walter get's to spend time in the hole."

"Sounds fair enough to me," Happy grinned.


It was a simple job. They were just implanting a device in the soil to keep bears out of the area in order to protect the campsite. They had been dropped off miles into the forest by a helicopter. They had been told that they would be picked up in 10 hours unless they heard from them sooner. Paige had packed them lunches and snacks. It was a very simple case. Until it wasn't.

"Not good," Happy yelled.

"Ok, ok, stay calm. We can do this," Paige immediately jumped up from where she was sitting.

"What happened?" Sylvester shouted over the comms. "Guys, is there a bear?"

"Is everything ok?" Walter questioned from the hole.

"Nothing is frickin ok," Happy screamed.

"The baby is coming," Paige announced. "And we are stuck in the middle of the woods with no supplies and without the doctor."

"Not good," Happy shrieked.

"I think I'd agree with that statement," Sylvester agreed virtually.

"Ok, it's ok. We can call the helicopter from the... Oh no," Walter started to panic.

"What the hell is oh no?" Happy cried clutching at Paige's hand.

"Ow, ow, ow," Paige muttered.

"Oh because you're in pain right now," Happy glared. "Walter, what is oh no."

"Well, you know how we were going to contact the helicopter via walkie-talkie?" Walter started. "As it turns out we can't."

"Why the hell not?" It was no mystery who inputted this question.

"Because I just dropped the shovel on the walkie talkie. It's broken. We can't fix it," Walter informed the group.

"And why can't Sly contact them," Paige asked.

"I'm trying right now," Sylvester told them. "Oh no."

"Again?!" Happy yelled.

"Homeland can't get in contact with the helicopter, and all their other helicopters are on other jobs or in other countries," Sylvester said seriously. "The helicopter won't be here for another 10 hours."

"All this is working out to really piss me off," Happy grunted.

Paige shared a look with Walter, "We're dead."


"Hey, Toby," Sylvester greeted Toby over the phone. The doctor had picked up the phone on the first ring. Toby of course had noticed that Sylvester's voice was extremely high pitched at the moment. Which meant that he was nervous. Which meant something was wrong.

"What's wrong Sly? Is everything ok?" Toby started.

"Why would you think something was wrong?" Sylvester squeaked.

"Sly?" He questioned slowly.

"Ok, don't freak out," Sylvester prefaced his statement.

"I swear to God. Sly tell me what the hell is going on," Toby demanded. He stifled a cough.

"Ok, so you know how Happy and Walter and Paige are out in the middle of the woods?" Sylvester asked slowly.

"Of course I am aware," He started to shake his head.

"Well, so funny story, they were sitting-"

"Get to the point, Sly" Toby ordered. Happy was rubbing off on him.

"Happy's having the baby and they're stuck in the middle of the woods for the next 10 hours or so," Sylvester stated quickly.

"She's what?!" Toby shouted. "I'm missing the birth of my child? Wait a minute, there's no doctor there. Oh my god, Sly, I'll be at the garage in 10 minutes."

"You live 20 minutes away on a good day. How on earth are you-" Sylvester started question. "Right, you're going to break every law there is on the road. Gotcha."

"How is she?" He asked as he rushed out the door.

"She's really angry."

"Well, at least she's staying true to her character."
