I prodded Mobster with my foot, much harder than I needed to. He didn’t stir. “You did this!?”

Motor held up a bag of Diarrhea Delights. “He was heading to the elevator to guard it, so I shared some of these with him. After lacing them with melatonin.”

I gave Motor a high five. “That’s the sleep hormone, right?”

Motor nodded. “Restless Leg Me had plenty to share. He can’t nod off without it.”

“I’ll be jitterbugged, if you’ll pardon my dirty mouth!” said Hollywood. “The old tranquilizer routine. I thought that only worked in movies!”

Motor took in Hollywood’s swollen face and whistled. “Amazing! I’ve never seen such a bad allergic reaction in a Me. Pomegranates?”

Before Hollywood could curse out Motor in that dorky way of his, the lounge exit flew open and Troll jumped through. My arms tingled again, giving me the strength to shove him back the way he’d come. I wound up pushing harder than I meant to and knocked him into Click and Dare. They fell in a tangle.

“Jeepers!” said Hollywood, so stunned he didn’t even apologize for swearing. “You’re not average in the strength department, I’ll give you that!”

Motor looked more excited than surprised. “You should see his aim! He pegged Troll with a Diarrhea Delight from the far side of Ballroom C!”

“Forget about that. Let’s go!” I raced for the elevator bank as Motor and Hollywood fell in behind me. We had a good head start, but Motor started to lag. His cart made clunking sounds.

The Viral Mes got back on their feet and rushed down the hall toward us. Behind them, a screaming-mad mob of Mes spilled out of the banquet room. Ren Faire hopped along in the middle of the crowd, still trying to pull up his pants as his sword scabbard slapped his bare legs.

Motor’s cart slowed to a crawl. “Battery’s shot!”

“You’re almost there!” I yelled. “Just keep it floored!”

I reached the call button ahead of Hollywood and slapped it. The light blinked on, but the doors wouldn’t open. We heard the elevator car rumbling toward us from above. “Jumpin’ Jehoshaphat,” said Hollywood. “It’s in use?!”
