"Guys did you see that stork outside?" Pete said out of breath, stumbling down the stairs.

"There you are!" Joe said. "Where were you?"

"I'm in the childproofing group, I was searching the hallway up there for choke-able items. So far all I found was Andy's ego."

"Hey! Don't make fun of my small ego! I'm a drummer, how big can it be? Plus, it means I'm humble, unlike YOU!"

"Why is there a stork outside?" Joe wondered.

"I don't know but I'll bet it has the baby with it. Our baby..." Mikey said, really excited.

Just as he finished his sentence, Billie Joe came running around the side of the house outside, chasing the bird.

"Get back here you dumb stork!" Billie Joe yelled. His voice was muffled since he was outside but he was yelling so loud that they could hear him "Get back here before I strangle you!"

"Go help him!" Bob yelled.

"Shut up Bob." Brendon said.

"Yeah shut up Bob." Andy said

"Shut up you dumb blonde!" Gerard hissed.

"Hey you were blonde once too. Plus that's just a stupid stereotype." Frank reminded him.

"I prefer to use the term lemon." Gerard said, rolling his eyes at Frank's stupidity.

"Okay I know we all hate Bob and we don't want to do what he says but I think we should help Billie Joe." Patrick said.

And they were off. It was pure chaos outside, all thirteen people (even Bob) were running after the crazed stork. It really was a wild goose chase. Or a wild stork chase I guess. Either way it was wild. As wild as Patrick.

"He wasn't supposed to deliver the baby yet! I wasn't ready!" Billie Joe explained out of breath.

"Can't you use your powers to stop him?" Frank panted.

"I can't. I might hurt the baby." Billie Joe said. "The stork is carrying it."

It took a full ten minutes to get the bird. At first Gerard had a lot of success with taunting the bird. By calling the stork vile and nasty names, the stork got really really mad and came close to Gerard, ready to fight back. Finally Gerard reached out and snatched it.  As soon as he grabbed it the stork started pecking at his eyes and he dropped it. Once again, the stork was on the run (and go).

Next Gerard and Dallon teamed up. While covering his eyes with his hands, Gerard shouted even more horrendous, disgusting, revolting things at the stork. Now the stork was furious. It lunged at Gerard but Dallon swooped in and grabbed it. Now the stork was after poor Dallon Weekes.

It bit Dallon on the hip hard and then started kicked it's legs around wildly. It kicked Dallon right where his jaw was still swollen from the punch Ryan threw at him. Unable to hold the stork anymore, Dallon dropped it to the ground.

Gerard was equally as furious as the bird. Now he unleashed his inner most dirtiness. He screamed vulgar, appalling, repugnant language.  Even Billie Joe blocked his ears in fear. Pete got a bloody nose. Mikey was sobbing because he didn't think his brother had this in him. Joe was sobbing because Mikey was sad and because he felt a little bad for the stork. The stork was outrageous. I don't blame him. It charged at Gerard and started kickin' him somewhere real painful.
 



I think you know where.

Billie Joe snuck up behind them and grabbed the stork by the neck. Not enough to kill it but enough to show it who was boss. With a quick thank you he was gone with a bolt of lightning. Not knowing what went down or why, the castaways and Bob Bryar headed back inside the house. They tried to pretend they didn't witness anything strange going on, after all they were running out of time.
