Looks like we may have to flee
"You sure there isn't an ants nest outside Fred?" Roger asked Freddie.
"I'm sure and don't call me Fred!"
Brian sat there with his hands in his hair, frantically scratching. John was scratching his arms and legs. Roger was pulling off his jumper thinking that was the cause of the itch. Freddie was standing there stroking his cat Delilah. Just then, he yelped and dropped the cat, who flew under the cupboard meowing and stopping to lick herself every five seconds.
Freddie looked down at his arm and saw a red bite, a rather small bite, starting to appear.
"What the heck?" He shouted.
Then Brian repeated Freddie's "bite dance" and leaped into the air. The two remaining men completed the ritual. Brian wanted answers. He reached under the cupboard and grabbed Delilah. He put her on a table and and checked her all over. Just before he finished examining the area by her tail Freddie squealed like Roger sometimes did when he saw a spider, and leaped onto John, who promptly collapsed.
"What the hell Freddie!" John whispered harshly "I can't breath!"
"I saw a bug!" Freddie looked down at his arm and squealed again.
Brian walked over to him and went to retrieve the bug. However, when he went for it, it leaped off Freddie's arm and onto his leg. Brian went for it again but it kept jumping over the poor man lying on top of a poorer man. In the end Brian jumped on Freddie, but only succeeding in crushing John further. Roger tried to help but ended up being pushed ontop of Brian. Once the bug landed on an area where we shall never speak of. Brian tried to move it but ended up elbowing Freddie in a place where it very much hurt. He cried out in pain. Then Roger ran into the kitchen and came back with a wooden spoon. He hoped to smash the bug. The bug hopped all over Freddie, with Roger hitting everywhere it landed. This resulted in a very angry Freddie screaming bloody murder, whilst trying not to dislodge the bug from his shoulder, for if he did, they wouldn't ever find it again.
Finally, Brian caught it in a glass jar. He held it up triumphantly. Everyone piled off John who was gasping for air. Roger went to catch Delilah before she contaminated another area, John leaned against a wall catching his breath, whilst Freddie just fell flat on his face claiming 'everything hurts'
Brian suddenly shouted " it's a flea! It's a flea! Freddie get up! You need to clean the whole house and take the cats to the vet!"
Upon hearing the 'V word' Freddie leaped up like the flea.
"To the Mercurymobile!" He ran out of the door only to return to grab his cat.
"What the heck? Who named it that? It was supposed to be the meddowsinator!" Roger moaned trudging after Freddie.
"What about The Badger?" Brian shouted
"I thought it was the Deaky Express..." John mumbled quietly, for he desperately wanted the car to be named after him.
