Anime Hospital
Episode two:
Ill-Lum-innate-shuns
Toni knew trouble was coming when she heard the croud of voices outside
the hospital. It wasn't just voices, however. Sirens, and a megaphone-amplified
voice added to the racket outside, and it was approaching suddenly. Toni
groaned and
braced herself for the worst.
The glass doors were knocked off their hinges as the giant panda known
as Genma burst into the lobby. He had a
determined look in his eyes and was holding a sign that read "Emergency!!"
Behind him came dozens of Animes from roughly eight or so different worlds,
with only one thing in common with each other. They were of the subclass known
as "Takahashies," and they were being lead by Ataru Moroboshi himself, who was
walking backwards and shouting through the megaphone which he carried.
When they got to the front desk, Ataru turned to Toni and shouted
through the megaphone, "Hey, fat babe! We need a doctor right now!"
Toni leaned back from the force of the noise he made,and then snatched
the megaphone from his hands. "Where's your appointment, you idiot?!" she
screamed through the megaphone,making sure he felt the full force of the blast.
Once he recovered, Ataru straightened up and did his best to look
indignant. "You don't have to yell," he said. The very next moment the
megaphone was rammed down on him so hard he found his head sticking out of the
speaker end.
"And don't call me fat-babe!" she finished. She calmed down and took a
more casual pose. "So, what seems to be the problem?"
The croud of Animes opened up to allow the group in the center to
approach the desk. Godai, Mendou, Ranma, and Rei
wheeled a gurney with them. Laying on the gurney was Lum, who was quite
obviously very ill, sweat covered her face, and she moaned miserably. Jariten
flew up to Toni and in his little boy voice said, "Please, Miss. Lum is very
sick, and she needs a doctor as soon as you can get one."
Toni looked at her critically, pursed her lips
thoughtfully, and did several other things in manners that
require adjectives of three or more syllables before she finally said, "Do you
know what's wrong with her?"
Ten continued to hover in a way that betrayed his
concern. "We don't know what's wrong with her. She just passed out suddenly
while she was eating with some friends at a
restaurant. I bet it was because she was so worried about that idiot husband of
hers."
They both looked at Ataru, who was struggling to remove the megaphone
from his body. So far he was having no luck. "Yes,I could understand that,"
Toni murmured. "Okay, I'll get the emergency room." She glanced at Lum, who
crackled with energy briefly. "I'll make sure they wear protective clothing as
well."
As if to reinforce the point, a random blast of
lightning struck Ataru full force. This knocked the megaphone off of him, much
to everyone's disappointment.
