Why can't I write this good in English class?] > The next morning Ema and Smasher went to the hospital to see Morgan. Ema aproached the desk of the secretary and said, "Excuse me, could you tell me what room Morgan Erna is in?" The secretary looked up at Ema and politely informed her that last night Morgan ran off by jumping out the window. In jumping he lost his hospital gown and was wandering the streets naked ever since. Smasher was looking in a candy machine with Cliff Diver, his Clefairy, and Shurriken, his Starmie, and didn't her the news. Ema walked over to him with a weird face. "And?" Smasher asked. "Well," Ema started, "We have to find a naked kid." "What?!" Smasher said as his head jolted up from the candy machine as did Cliff Divers and Shurrikens.
