"Status report, guys." Kacey said half an hour later.
Kiki caught her breath.
"Zip. Nada. Nothin'." she said.
"Dang it. What about you, Val?"
She smiled.
"I found another quarter!" she squealed.
Both older operatives did a facepalm.
"THIS IS SERIOUS!" Kacey shouted.
"We've got aproximatley...." Kiki looked at her watch. "...an hour and a half to get Wally into that operating room before all the "kablooey-ness" starts."
"What happens if it DOES go kablooey?" Val asked.
Kiki gulped "He'll get this REALLY bad infection, puke everywhere, and....um.....y'know....go belly up."
Her eyes began watering.
"WHERE could he be?!" she wailed.
Kacey thought for a few moments. Then snapped her fingers.
"What's the one thing that Wally LOVES to do?"
Both girls thought for a minute.
"Be an insensitive little punk?" Val guessed.
"Close." Kacey said.
"Play videogames!" Kiki shouted.
"Exactly! And where do they usually have videogames in a hospital?"
"The pediactic ward!" Kiki answered.
Kacey was surprised. "Jeez, Kiki! You're on a roll today!"
She smiled. "Can I have a gold star?"
"Later. Right now, we gotta get to the top floor."
"TO THE ELEVATOR!" Val shouted.
When they reached the elevator doors, there was a sign that read "Out Of Order".
"How the.....?" Kiki was confused.
Kacey knew exactly what happened.
"DANGIT, DAVID!!!!" she shrieked.
"So the heck are we supposed to get to the sick kids place w/o getting caught by that 'hepta-tologist'"?
"HEMATOLOGIST." Kiki corrected. "And I've got an idea...."
--------------------------------------------------
"Kiki, what is it with you and disguises?"
"I watched a LOT of 'Rocky and Bullwinkle' growing up."
All 3 operatives were making their way down the 9th floor hallway disguised as a doctor, a nurse, and a sick kid.
Just then, they saw the hematologist.
"Act. Natural." Kiki whispered.
"MOO!!" Val said.
Kacey did a facepalm.
"Why is that kid going 'Moo'?" the doctor asked.
Kiki struggled to come up w/ an answer. Kacey ended up saving them.
"She's a bit loopy from the anesthesia. Little Val....erie here just got her...um.....appendix...glands... taken out."
"I did?" Val asked.
"Yes, you did, kiddo" Kiki lied.
She leaned in towards the doctor's ear.
"Anesthesia does crazy stuff to kids." she whispered.
"23 skidoo! Arrrgh! This place used to be orange groves far as the eye can see! Um... I bid you velcome?" Val added for effect.
The doctor got an "Ah." look on his face.
"I'm sure she'll be very entertaining in the kids ward."
Kiki, Kacey and Val sped off.
--------------------------------------------------
On the floor with the sick kids, Wally was getting his butt kicked at "Rapid Racers 2".
"Ha! I win!" the little boy he was playing against cheered.
"No fair!" Wally whined. "It's just because you rammed me out of the way on the 2nd lap and-"
His sentence was interuppted with another "OW!". This one, however, was much louder than the others he had yelled before.
Kacey kicked the door to the room down.
"THERE YOU ARE, YOU LITTLE PUNK!" she shrieked.
"Um.....I'm all better?" he chuckled nervously.
"Yeah...and I'm part Snuffleupagus."
"You ARE?!" Wally and Val said simultaneously.
Kiki and Kacey each did a facepalm.
Just then, Wally let out the shrillest, loudest, and longest "OW!" yet. He immediately collapsed to the floor, unconcious.
Kacey grabbed him and ran at full speed down the hall to find the nearest doctor.
"Come on, we gotta get you on that table NOW. We're not leaving one operative behind."
Kiki called up everyone up to the waiting room on the floor with the operating room. They all needed to be there.
--------------------------------------------------
(EW! ROMANTIC MOMENT! DUCK AND COVER!)
Kuki sat in the prep room with a very sick Wally. The doctor came in.
"All right, we gotta get him on the table ASA-now."
"Can I come with him?" Kuki asked, all teary-eyed.
"Sorry. Hospital staff only."
Kuki began to bawl. She then reached into her backpack and pulled out her "Doctor Doctor" Rainbow Monkey. She handed to Wally, who, instead of pushing it away, hugged it.
"For luck." Kuki sniffled.
Wally weakly smiled.
"Thanks, Kuki." he said.
He was then rolled out of the room.
Now all she and the others could do was wait.
Kiki caught her breath.
"Zip. Nada. Nothin'." she said.
"Dang it. What about you, Val?"
She smiled.
