When last we left our villains (see what I did there), they were getting their asses kicked by the Ratman on a moving subway. During they fight, however, they drew the attention of something seemingly more sinister.
Zombie looked on with a slight hint of fear as a pale shade emerged from the smoke and placed itself between herself and Ratman. The human rodent, however, was so startled that one of his eyes popped out of its half burnt sockets.
"You have stepped into the wrong subway, vermin!" the ghost shouted. Its voice was so booming that everyone began to bleed from their ears. It grabbed Ratman's head and looked straight into his eyes...
"Boo!"
The word came out so thunderous that the rodent exploded wholly. The gore went straight through the ghost, who remained spotclean, and sprayed Zombie as she tried to find something to plug her bleeding ears with. Dragon regained consciousness and immediately let out a roar as she felt the headache that the ghost's talking had caused. Mummy got to his feet with a groan and shook his head a few times as a few scarabs scurried over and under his wrappings, fixing the damage done to his ears.
"What in the Grimms' name was that?!" he yelled at the apparition.
"There was a rat problem," answered the ghost. "The nature of my deal is that I deal with all rodent infestations."
"What deal?" asked Dragon.
"My deal with the owners of this subway train." was the simple reply. "I keep out the rats, and in turn I am allowed to live in the vents and haunt passengers on Friday nights."
"You're allowed to haunt people?!" Zombie gasped. "Did you get like an official permit or something?"
"No, that might alert the wider world to my presence, and I would have to look for a new hideout."
"Why hide out when you can just chase people off at your own convenience? AND SINCE WHEN DO GHOSTS SLEEP?"
"Ghosts can last very long without sleep, but it is still advised to do so at least once a week. The usual day for ghosts to sleep is on Sundays, when the local ghosthunters are off to mass."
"Catholic ghosthunters..." Mummy mused. "I wasn't exactly expecting the Spanish Inquisition..."
Suddenly all the windows burst and a group of men dressed like cardinals and carrying machine guns barged in.
"NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION!!!"
