Fighting Fungus

Project Unfinished

"Where are we?" Jackson asked.

"We are inside of Ethan," said Fred.

"Why?" Bethany asked, disgusted. She was just leaning against the wall until she found out.

"We have to stop a fungus that the machine gave him. It will turn him into a zombie if we don't." Fred explained.

"So where's it located?" Greg asked, interested.

"In his mind," Fred added.

The gang flew a mini submarine to Ethan's brain.

They found a passage to the inside of Ethan's mind.

Then Austin's skin started turning green. He noticed this was the same shade that Ethan was turning. "Uh guys..."

Dan looked at Austin, and smiled. "Hey Zak! Your dad is turning into the Hulk! Now he can take down the fungus once and for all!"

Zak and Fred looked back at Austin, and screamed in unison.

"No you idiot!" Fred yelled at Dan.

"He's turning into a zombie like Ethan," Zak explained.

Dan looked back at Austin, and realized his clothes weren't ripping like the Hulk's. "Oh okay," Dan whispered.

Austin walked up to Wayne. He slapped Wayne in the back of the head.

"Tag. You're it now." Austin said in a weird zombie voice.

Then Wayne started turning into a zombie.

Then they got Greg and Zak.

Ochard saw what the zombies did to Zak. He screamed, "No! My boy!"

Fred pulled out one antidote that he found in a bag, and shot Zak with it.

Zak fell down to the "ground".

Fred put Zak into the bigger on the inside bag.

"Guys, is it really safe to stuff me into a plastic bag?" Zak called out from inside.

As soon as Fred put Zak into the bag, Zak woke up.

Fred answered, "For now, yes."

Then Fred turned to everyone else. "Plug your ears," he commanded.

Everyone did as they were told.

Fred pulled out a sound wave gun, and blasted the three zombies out of the brain.

"Shouldn't we have not done that?" Ochard brought up.

"Why shouldn't we?" Fred asked, as he was putting away the sound wave gun.

Ochard continued, "I'm just saying, if we blasted the zombies away, then they'll be in other parts of his body. Then they can continue the work of the machine, which was turning him into a zombie."

"Sh**. I didn't think of that," Fred muttered to himself. He only said that to himself to guarantee that no-one else heard that he had made a mistake for the first time in his life.

Then the group trekked closer to the fungus.

The fungus made Ochard, Zak, and Jackson start to turn into zombies.

But luckily, Fred still has a lot of antidotes.

Then the three zombies popped up and grabbed Ochard and Jackson to capture and hypnotize them.

Then Zak got really scared and started singing one of his favorite songs that Dan made, Tigerman. (P.S. this song was created by my brother.) "Tigerman. Tigerman. Does what ever a tiger can. Kills your mom and your wife. You better sleep with a knife. Look out here comes the tigerman. Tigerman. Tigerman. Does what ever a tiger can. Mauls people in his way. He kills everyone that he hates. It's the evil tiger man."

And the zombies got mad and captured Zak.

As Zak was been carried away, he started singing a new song. "Zombie man! Zombie man! Does what ever a zombie can. Kills your mom and your wife! You better sleep with a ..."

The couldn't hear the rest of the song because, Greg punched Zak in the face. And Zak became unconscious.

Then Ochard and Jackson teleported to the brain along with a friend of theirs, Doggo.

Then Doggo put Jackson and Ochard down, and started singing. "Doggoman! Doggoman! Does what ever a Doggo can. Bites your crotch. Rips it off. Better sleep with a chewy toy!"

Jackson groaned at the song. "Keep it PG dude!"

Doggo rolled his eyes. "Everyone else is cussing."

Jackson stared him down. "Yeah. So? That doesn't give you the right to. You're supposed the lovable dog! Not the murderer!"

Doggo got mad and mocked Jackson. "You're supposed to be the lovable dog! Not the murderer!"

Jackson snarled at Doggo.

Doggo said no more.

Then Doggo yelled at Jackson, "Why can't be rated R?"

Ochard shrugged and looked at Jackson. "Doggo does have a good point."

Jackson gave up. "Fine. It can be PG13. But if you do one more thing, that's too extreme, I'll bring you to the humaine society, so they can put you to sleep!"

Then Doggo yelled. "You're supposed to be the loveable werewolf not the murderer!"

Jackson yelled back. "Oh it's so on b***h!"

Doggo and Jackson started fighting.

Ochard got popcorn out of nowhere and yelled, "Fight!"

Everyone else joined him.

Doggoette appeared out of nowhere.

Then Doggo yelled at Jackson, "We're gonna put you back from where you came from!"

Jackson did not know that this was in a literal sense.

Doggo grabbed Jackson by the back of the shirt, and shoved his face into Doggoette's butt.

"What are you doing?" Jackson questioned Doggo.

Doggo answered, "I'm putting you back from where you came from: a b***h's a*s."

"Burned!" Screamed Bethany.

Jackson ran over to Bethany and pushed her out of a hole in Ethan's brain.

Then Bethany got stuck in Ethan's blood stream.

Everything was pure chaos.

Then Jackson picked up Doggo and Doggoette, and threw them far away.

A mumbled voice said, "Come on now, Ethan. You can wake up."

Doggo and Doggoette crashed against the fungus. The fungus completely disintegrated.

Ethan's new eye adjusted to the light. He looked up and saw everyone else. "Bethany, why are you here?" Ethan asked, curious.

"What do you mean?" Bethany asked.

"I thought you got stuck in my blood stream," Ethan said dryly.

"No that never happened." Bethany ran over to Fred. "What's he talking about?"

Fred whispered back, "Just wait."

Ethan explained to them what happened.

Fred looked at Ethan. "So the machine turned you into a zombie?" Fred asked.

"Yes," Ethan answered.

"Then you were dreaming," Fred replied.

"Wait. I was?" Ethan questioned.

"Yeah. The machine was a copy of Jackson's. Then the machine sent out a wave that made you fall asleep." Fred explained.

Then Fred also said, "By the way Ethan, you're not alone."

"Huh what do you mean?" Ethan began to ask.

But Fred was already going on with what he said. Fred pulled up his pant legs. "I have robotic legs."

"How?" Ethan asked.

"That's a story for another time," said Fred.

Jackson said to Fred and Ethan, "I'll take some people with me. Some people can stay here and watch Ethan for the night."

Austin, Ochard, Bethany, and Kalen volunteered to watch Ethan.

The original five plus Wayne went to Jackson's house.
