Mayhem

Present Day

Cora spent the past 20 years working for Caleb. The first couple of years it was actual fun until she realized what she had gotten herself into. After awhile she was sent to recruit other 'stronger' ghosts who could be seen by lifers (fancy ghost lingo for the living) or anything that made them different. She'd get them to work for Caleb than he'd deliver the same message to them that he did to her.

What made it all worse to her was she never found her brother or any of the guys for that matter. She eventually gave up on finding them it was no use to her. Now that she wasn't even able to leave the Hollywood Ghost Club,because of the stamp Caleb put on her when she made the deal. She hadn't know for awhile about it until she tried to leave once. She had gotten excruciating pain which forced her to come back to Caleb. She was snapped out of her daze when Caleb walked in. She quickly pretended that she was touching up her makeup in the mirror. She didn't say a word trying to avoid talking to him.

Caleb walked down the stairs coming off the stage in his usual host outfit. When he saw Cora he snapped remembering what he was going to tell her, so he went to go stand behind Cora looking at her in the mirror. "We are inviting three new special ghosts into our club tonight. My intention is to get them to join our band as my backup, so be respectful. I need you to play nice and show them the wonders of my club got it?" He asked her with a slight smirk lifting his eyebrow.

Cora was reapplying some lip gloss in the mirror as Caleb talked to her. This would be the first group of ghosts she would have to recruit since 2012. Once they went 3 years without having to recruit someone, but this was the longest time they've gone without recruiting. 'It was calming while it lasted' she thought to herself as she closed the lip gloss bottle. She looked at Caleb through the mirror and nodded. "Of course I will. When have I not?" She asked him rhetorically since she knew he couldn't answer that. She always did her job to save herself. She gave him a fake smile.

Caleb smirked and fixed his sparkle jacket looking in the mirror. He then gently placed a hand on Cora's shoulder. "I know I can always count on you." he stated then walked away from her. He had to go make sure everybody was preparing for tonight, as it would be their first time back at the Hollywood Ghost Club since last year.

A couple hours later 

Willie made sure all was good with Caleb to bring in Alex, Reggie, and Luke. He had no idea of their connections to Cora, but it didn't really matter to him. It also hadn't matter to Caleb yet. He wasn't even aware of what Caleb's intentions were with the band which he wouldn't know until it was too late. He then teleported up to the three boys and smiled. "We're all good!'

Alex smiled upon seeing Willie turning to look at him he nodded happily. "Good! Oh also just so you know we have like an hour because we've got a gig with Julie." He told him making it abundantly clear they had something else to attend to. They had just needed their question answered after that they'd head to the school. Luckily Willie didn't mind when they left, so it wasn't a problem for him. He then escorted them down the stairs.

Reggie looked around his breath taken away at how gorgeous and admirable everything was. He then gasped when he saw two people walk through Alex and Willie. "Whoa I thought all these people were going to be ghosts!?"

Willie looked at Reggie then gestured to the rest of the people in the club. "These are all lifer-" He was quickly interrupted by Alex explaining what lifers were again. "But this is a very exclusive crowd everybody here has paid a lot to get a sneak peak at the afterlife." Willie told them as they looked around at the busy club.

Reggie nodded then whispered to Luke looking at how fancy everybody was and made a joke. "I always knew rich people did weird things like this!" He exclaimed. Willie and the boys were then escorted to their table by another hostess. They were given the table with the best view of the show.
