"Come on, Chris! At least try and do a cool pose." Steve complained to his little brother as he took pictures.

"Is this really necessary?" Chris asked as he stood in his Karate Kid Halloween costume. The plan was Ghostbusters, but because there were only four guys in the group, Chris offered that he did something else. And so he stood in a pair of white joggers, a white shirt, bandana tied around his forehead and a black band around his waist as Steve wanted to take some pictured of him.

"Hey, I'm just making sure you have memories. Now go stand in a karate pose before I make you." Steve shot back and Chris sighed before doing a pose. Steve took a few polaroid's and before he could complain Chris grabbed his baseball jacket and black Vans and ran away.

"See you, Steve!" He called to his brother as he grabbed his school bag and skateboard and ran out of the house. He skated to school and quickly arrived. He drove through the kids and hopped off when he reached the door of Hawkins Middle School. He saw Mike, Dustin and Lucas in their Ghostbusters outfits and smiled.

"Hey, I tried to call you guys," He joked as he joined the group and they all chuckled.

"Nice Karate Kid costume, Chris," Dustin smiled with his new grown in teeth.

"I can say the same thing about you guys," Chris replied with a smile as he picked up his skateboard.

"Who you gonna call?" They all sang.

"Ghostbusters!" Will answered as he joined the group. Chris smiled at him as his stomach started feeling weird.

"Hey, Spengler!" Mike cheered.

"Egon! Yeah!" Lucas cheered as he hugged Will.

"Venkman!" Will replied but Mike's face fell.

"Whoa! Whoa!" He said.

"What?" Lucas asked, and then Chris noticed it.

"Why are you Venkman?" Mike replied.

"Because I'm Venkman," Lucas stated.

"No, I'm Venkman." Mike shot back.

"Oh, no," Chris muttered.

"You can say that again, Daniel," Will whispered and Chris lightly blushed. "Why can't there be two Venkman's?" He then said.

"Because there's only one Venkman in real life. We planned this months ago. If we decided to be unrealistic then Chris could have joined. But we didn't decide that. I'm Venkman, Dustin's Stantz, you're Egon, Chris's Daniel from Karate Kid and you're Winston." Mike stated.

"I specifically didn't agree to Winston," Lucas said.

"Yes, you did!" Mike shot back.

"I don't think he did." Will agreed.

"I just remembered agreeing to being allowed to wear sweatpants all day," Chris said making Will chuckle.

"No one wants to be Winston, man," Lucas added.

"What's wrong with Winston?" Mike asked.

"What's wrong with Winston? He joined the team super late, he's not funny, and he's not even a scientist!" Lucas exclaimed.

"Yeah, but he's still cool." Mike shot back.

"If he's cool, then you be Winston," Lucas said.

"I can't!" Mike replied.

"Why not?" Lucas asked in return.

"Because..." Mike stuttered.

"Because you're not black?" Lucas finished for him and Chris looked at Will and Dustin as they all winced at the conversation.
