The Story The Authors

...Next on the agenda was the mess inside the Iron Sausage. Demetrius had sealed the fearsome receptacle as best he could under such messy circumstances, but it was far from enough, and three days later, stoked to a powerfully rank-sweet olfactory ardor by the heat from the furnace and the almost negligible ventilation, the stench of the remains had drawn swarms of flies down the flights of winding stairs and through the dark esophagi of the lowest of the cellars to the lightless domain of the Sausage, where they wasted know time in eating, breeding, and laying eggs, which hatched within the hour with their own famished crop of youngsters. Philip Welsh

By the time Demetrius returned with the rheumy-eyed Janice, the place both resembled and stank like a slaughterhouse. Newton

Outside in the barnyard, a hen hastily wolfed down a fat green inchworm before the rooster could deman it of her; she clucked once in triumph, turned her back to him, and began to peck at the wrinkled flesh around her vent. Philip Welsh

The rooster responded by savagely gobbling dung-beetles from the manure-pile. jermy

Demetrius removed his sweatshirt. He gave it to Janice to cover her mouth and nose with. She continued to gag nonetheless. The air was so full of flies they could barely see, and the buzzing of so many pairs of wings completely drowned out all other sound. So they never got to hear Amal's tuneless rendition of Steve Martin's Thermos Song from The Jerk. Philip Welsh

They wouldn't have been able to hear it anyway, because a Amal and Nigel had left Janice to die. Demetrius' sweatshirt kept the flies out of Janice's eyes and mouth but they swarmed around her bloody fingerless hands. She began to flail her arms hysterically. She dropped the sweatshirt and she began to scream. The flies flew into her gaping mouth. The sight of her made Demetrius gag but he wouldn't leave her there to die like Amal and Nigel did so calously. He grabbed her by the wrist and dragged her out of her room at the sanitorium. They ran unhindered through the barnyard that was tended by the patients. Demetrius thought they were going to make a clean getaway from the Iron Sausage (whatever that was), but he was mistaken. cuddles

It turned out the flies were waiting behind the corner. There were so many of them that Nigel stopped counting on his toes and became flustered. Ewan

Janice was getting dizzy from the loss of blood. She could barely keep up with Demetrius but he urged her on. He could see a car on the other side of the banyard fence, parked at the shoulder of the highway. It was a lime green convertable '65 mustang with the top down. As they drew closer to the car, Demetrius could see two figures in the front seat with their heads bent over a map. Janice tripped and fell face first into the dirt, hay and grit stuck to her bloody fingerless hands. Demetrius picked her up and carried her to the car. "Excuse me!" he said to the occupants of the Mustang. "This is an emergency! You must take us to the nearest hospital!" The two women in the front seat turned to look at Demetrius and were stunned to see there old friend Janice in such a horrible state. "Ohmygod!" they said in unison. Janice recognized the voices of Tiki Dinette and Bitzy Bootleg. "Get in the car! Quickly!" Tiki commanded. Demetrius obeyed. He set Janice into the back seat and then climbed in next to her. He looked behind them and saw Amal and Nigel running towards them. "We have to go now!" Demetrius said. "Keep your shorts on, laughing boy." Bitzy said as put the peddle to the metal. Janice stirred. "Where's Vashondra?" she asked. cuddles

"Shut up!!!" bolstered Demetrius. "you're losing too much blood and you need to save your strength." Shortly the 4 of them reached the the hospital, and hurridly rushed Janice into the emergency ward. Dr. Shmalishickak rushed to their aid as soon as he was beeped. "Gozen get da shtuv ford a sturgery.", bellowed Dr. Shmalishickak. The other doctors and nurses looked blankly at the frantic doctor and friends. Demetrius, with good reason hunted all over for a real doctor. None were found! Lithium
