More Then Anything 2! Part 9
Howard picked Vince up and rushed out of the toilets and over to the first spare table he saw, placing Vince into one of the chairs carefully, before rushing over to Cookie and Sue who were in hysterics.
'Cookie! I need your help now!' Howard said.
'What? Why?' She asked almost instantly looking serious.
'Its Vince!' He said.
Cookie instantly jumped off her stall and rushed over to where Vince was sat.
'Oh my god! He's covered in blood! What the hell happened?!' She screamed.
'I dont know, I just went in and he was lead on the floor like this.'
'have you called an ambulance?' she asked panicking.
'What, no, not yet.'
'Well fucking call one!!!!' She screamed throwing her phone at him.
'Whats going on? Are you alright?' Sue asked walking over. 'Fuck! What happened to him!?'
'DAD!!! CALL AN AMBULANCE!!!!!!'
Howard was shocked at how desperate she was, so he quickly dialed 999.
'Hello, ambulance please! To the Frisco Club.' Howard said into the phone.
'We should get him outside.' Sue said to Cookie.
'yeah, cmon then.' She said walking to one side of him and placing an arm over her shoulder.

'Sir are you sure you do not know what has happened?' a doctor asked Howard once they were in the hospital.
'Yes, I've told you 89 times now! I only got there after the incident had started and ended!'
'Well, it just seems odd that you just happened to be there.'
'no, he took my daughter to the club while I was at home!'
'Oh really? Well, Then thankyou Mr. Moon, we'd like to talk to your daughter now.' The doctor said heading to the door. 'um...Sarah?'
'huh?'
'Can you come with me please, I'd just like to ask you a few questions.' He said leading her to his office. 'Now, can you please tell me everything you know about what has happened.'
'well, theres not much to tell really, apart from, well, we went to a party there, and started chatting to Robots In Disguise, the band, and then Dee left, and then Vince went to the loo for about 2 hours or something, and I got worried so I called Howard to come, and he did, then he went to check on him and found him like that, he brought him out and placed him on a chair then rushed for me and I told him to call an ambulance.' She explained.
'I see, thankyou Sarah.' He said heading for the door.
'um, actually I've changed my name.'
'Right, thankyou. Um, Sue?' He called.
'Yeah?' She asked heading for him.
'can you now tell me everything you know.'
'Ive never even met them before to be honest, but basically me and Dee were in the Frisco Club and they came up to us and we just started chatting, then Dee left and Vince went to the-'
'Loo and spent 2 or something hours in there.' He finished.
'yeah. Thats pretty much it.'
'so no-one around here knows what happened atall!?' He screamed. Just then a nurse came in.
'um...doctor, can I talk to you in private please?' She asked.
'Sure.' He said smiling. 'Um, Sue, can you uh, go back to the rest of your group.'
'Whatever.' She said walking back over to Howard and Cookie.
'ok, there's bad luck, and then there's just unbelievable!' Cookie said.
'I agree, and what the fuck happened to him?!'
'hang on! I think I know!' Sue said.
'What?!' They both asked together.
'You said that he imagines that bloke or someone, well, it must've been him.'
'Yeah, no-one else would want to hurt him would they?' Cookie asked.
'hmm.' Howard thought about all the people that might've wanted to hurt him. 'Well, there's that band he was in, the eel man might, um... the jazz virus, uuuh-'
'yeah ok! But I expect it was him, I mean think logically here!'
'um...sir, can I have a word please?' The doctor asked returning.
'sure.' Howard replied.
'Now, you see, Vince has woken up, and apparently there was a man in there with him, are you sure you didnt see ANYBODY else in there with him?'
'YES IM FUCKING CERTAIN!'
'Sir, I advise you not to shout, this is a hospital, and Vince said there was, and it couldnt have been a hallucination for many different reasons.'
'Yes, well I didnt see anyone! Unless it was John Price, like we assumed.'
'What!? Who's John Price?!'
'He's trying to kill Vince.'
'Thankyou! Im just going to see what information we have on him!' The doctor said rushing down the hall.
'Um...nurse?' Howard called.
'Yes sir?'
'um...can we see Vince?'
'he's just being checked over now, can you wait for 5 minutes please?'
'ok, thankyou.'
'my pleasure sir.' She said smiling before walking over to the desk.
'Fucking hell, this day's been a nightmare!' Cookie said, starting to cry.
'Look, everyone has a bad day! Dont worry, im sure itll get better soon.' Sue assured her rubbing her back.
'I bet it wont, ive had bad luck all my life!' She wimpered.
'Sue's right! It will get better soon, cause we're going to help Vince out! We'll help him to defeat John! And we'll help him get through this!'
'How're we gonna get rid of a killer you idiot?!' Cookie screamed at him.
'I dont know but we'll find a way.' He assured her.
'How do you know that?'
'Because we always do, I remember me and Vince once got captured and buried up to our heads in sand! But we got out!'
'How?' Cookie and Sue asked looking confused.
'Naboo and Bollo came and rescued us. And im sure they'll help him now, and we've got Kirk too now.'
'Yeah, im off to get a drink, you coming?' She asked standing up and wiping her eyes.
'I will.' Sue said.
'Im gonna stay.' Howard said.
'Ok.' They both said walking down the hall and going into the lift.
