So are you going to donate some blood at the drive?". "Yea Banachek, Doug, Erich, and Gerard are going to donate too"JD replied. "What about sleeping beauty?"Costa inquired. "No dice". "Well maybe someday we'll get him donate since he's done it by either his foot or his hand"Costa said. "Let's not go there I'm just starting to forget that nail through the hand thing. I warned Criss if he does that again I'm quitting" JD remarked as they went to get a drink. When the day of the drive came up Ava went to the Excalibur to set up. When she got there Costa and JD were all ready there setting up tables and chairs. "This is surprise" as she put down a case of water. "I decided to bring JD along to help set up"Costa stated. "Well thanks guys I just finishing talking to Felix a few minutes ago and he said that at the next blood drive he's going to have at The Luxor and he'll have a drawing for two tickets for BELIEVE"Ava stated.

"Well that's great Ava I wonder what Felix had to do to get Criss to do that"JD joked as Ava and Costa giggled. "JD can you help me bring in some more stuff from my car?". "Sure" and they went to the car. When they got there JD heard meowing. "What JD?". "I hear a cat"he said. "Oh that's Angel he's sort of the mascot of the Las Vegas Red Cross. He entertains the little kids while their parents donate I just have to keep him away from where they donate". She went into her car and took out the cat carrier. JD looked inside than started to giggle. "What's so funny?". "Your cat looks like Hammie, it's like looking at his twin" JD remarked. "Come on" and they went in. At The Luxor the guys were having some lunch when Criss came in. "Hey Criss you going to donate some blood at the Excalibur today"Erich inquired. "I may drop down to take a look where's JD and Costa?". "They went to help Ava set up"Doug replied. Criss went over to the coffee pot and saw it wasn't even set up. "Nobody had coffee today?". "No I heard caffeine isn't good when you donate blood" Gerard replied.

"And Banacheck's eating a spinach salad and drinking water"Criss said. "I got to have a good iron level to donate Criss"he stated. A knock on the window came and it was Felix. "You guys ready I'm walking down". "Sure Felix see yea later Criss"Erich remarked. They all said good bye to Criss and left. In the ball room JD was working the canteen while Costa was helping outside. "All right just read this and fill this out" and gave some literacy to read. Ava came out to see how it was going. "Wow this is good turn out". "Well I heard from one of pit bosses the Excalibur is giving anyone that works here that donate a paid day off". "That's one way ofgetting a paid day off"she remarked. "Here you go Costa" giving him the form back. "Can't donate Isabella?".

"No just had a tattoo put on a couple of days ago" showing the angel wings on her ankle. "Maybe next time Isabella"Costa remarked as she left. Then Gerard, Banachek, Erich, Felix, and Doug came around the corner. "I see you all came where's Christopher?"Costa inquired. "He said he's be by later"Doug remarked. "Well just fill out the form and read this"Costa replied giving them the forms and the stuff to read. "See you later" as Ava went in.
