Slow dissolve from Black. In the background we hear the hustle and bustle of a large city Emergency Room. Two nurses and a doctor are working on a patient in the foreground. In the Background a group of people look on through a large glass window.

Nurse: Doctor we’re losing him!

Doctor: Not on my watch. We’re not losing this guy not today!

Nurse2: I can’t get a sinus rhythm.

Doctor: Start compressions! One… Two… Three… Four… Five…

The two nurses start performing CPR

Nurse: Nothing Doctor!

Doctor: Give me the paddles! Ok. Ready? Clear!

KA-CHUNK!

Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee…

Nurse: Hit him again!

Doctor: Clear!

KA-CHUNK!

Beep. Beep. Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeee..

Doctor: One more time! Clear!

KA-CHUNK!

Beep Beeeeee. Beep Beeeeee. Beep Beeeee.

Nurse: He’s back. We have a pulse!

The two nurses deflate with relief. The onlookers behind the window give out a cheer.

Doctor: Good Job Nurse! Let’s get him on a bed and make sure we keep him that way!

Nurse 2: Yes Ma’am. Ok let’s move him people. Off the gurney and onto the bed. We need to make sure we don’t lose him again.

Nurse: I’ll go tell the family.

Nurse 2 points over his shoulder at the onlookers.

Nurse 2: There was no family, but this group of WoW players followed him here. Said something about his blog being dead.

Nurse: WoW nerds? Blog? Wha… Why? Who is this guy?

Overhearing, a third nurse comes over, eyeing the patient, Recognition flashes in her eyes.

Nurse 3: Who is this guy?! That’s Maerdred! From Treebound Cat!
She gestures towards the onlookers.
Nurse 3: He’s back everyone! Maerdred’s back!

The crowd rushes into the room.

Doctor: Not so fast! He’s been gone for a while. Let’s give him some time to gain some strength. Give him some air. Make Room. Make room.Maerdred. Can you hear me?

Maerdred: Doc! Get me my  *cough cough* PC. I need to *cough* upload a blog post. I gotta… my fans..  I’ve been out of it so long. They thought I was *cough* dead… They thought my Blog was dead.

Nurse 3: Maer, You’ve been out  for a while. Are you sure you’re ready for that?

Doctor- holding up a chart: He’s pretty weak. I mean look at last week’s healing numbers on heroic Shannox. The guy’s lost his game.

Nurse 3 (indignant): Lost his game? Doct-

Maerdred: Lost my game? Look at last night’s Rag numbers. (he points to the chart) I’m back baby! I just had a setback. I’m not dead, and this Blog isn’t either! Get me that PC! I’m going in!

One of the nurses hands him a notebook PC and as he starts writing we dissolve to black, with the cheers of the onlookers in the background we hear him tapping at the keyboard until the screen has gone completely black.

The words, “Treebound.net Returning November 2011″ appear on the screen.
