Joey opened the garage. He put on his orange blazer with the Ghostbusters logo on the chest. He tied his back converse shoes and slid up his tall socks. He grabbed his backpack and walked out of the garage door. His backpack at a big Ghostbusters Logo on it. A kid from across the street watched Joey walk down his driveway and onto the sidewalk.
"Ghostbusters!" The kid chanted. Joey looked over and waved to the kid with a smile.

Five teleported out of the building just before the impact of the grenade could affect him. He looked at his watch and pressed his lips together. He sighed and put his arm down. He closed his eyes as he turned to look away from the huge academy. He tightened his fists as he tried to travel back to the over world. He clenched his teeth as he enforced all of the pressure he could give. He eventually gave up with a heavy breathe. When he turned back around to face the building, he saw the students start to run out of the school. He licked his lips as he watched the kids run and scream. He noticed the books that the students were carrying again. He cracked his knuckles before taking off towards the running students. He teleported in front of one. The student ran into Five before he wrapped his arms around them.
"What do you want?!" The student cried in fear.
"Give me the book." Five demanded.
"No! I need this!" The student refused. They kept trying to fight against Fives restraint.
"Give me. The book." Five growled through clenched teeth. The student threw the book to the ground. Five let go of them and walked over to the book. The student ran away as fast as they could. Five picked up the book with his bloody, shaky fingers. He teleported into the woods that was next to the building. He shakily limped over to a big oak tree. He slid his back down the tree until he met the leaves. He closed his eyes and leaned his head off of the tree, blood trickling down from the gash on his forehead and into his eyes. Someone could easily mistake him for crying tears of blood.

Joey opened the door to the house and stepped in.
"Where have you been?" One, who was looking for something between the cushions, asked him.
"Oh you know, the usual." Joey smirked and put his backpack on the table.
"Going to random people's houses and asking the ghosts politely to leave?" One smiled and even chuckled a bit.
"They don't call me Ghostbuster Joey for no reason." Joey smiled and walked into the bathroom before shutting the door behind him. One shook her head and giggled.

Five woke up when the moon was high in the sky. He slowly opened his shaky eyelids. His vision was red from all of the blood being soaked into his eyeballs. He carefully stood up. He looked through the trees and at the school. He licked his lips as he set the book back in the leaves. He teleported away.
He spawned inside of the school. Everything was dark, only a few flickering lights. His eyes glitched into a red color as he looked down the empty hallways. He lightly stepped past the doors. He saw The Matrix Control Center up ahead. He closed his eyes tightly and teleported into the room. Buttons filled the walls along with television screens. He slowly walked past all of them, acknowledging each one. He opened one of the drawers that read 'Errors to Acknowledge'. He flipped through the files until he found one with the same date that Seventeen got lost on. He pulled it out of the drawer and took it over to one of the desks. He opened the file to see pictures of Seventeen and the dimension he was stuck in, along with the dimension he came from, littered throughout the folder. Five's eyes twinkled at the discovery. Suddenly, bright red lights started flashing and a piercing alarm sound ring through Five's ears. He quickly grabbed the file and ran out of the door and into the hallway. He noticed security guards right on his tail. He started to sprint faster. He squinted his eyes as the strain of the red flashing lights made it hard to see. As he passed, he snatched a crowbar off the wall. He teleported to behind the security guards. Blood splattered against Five's face as he forced the crowbar into one of the guards neck. The guard fell over lifelessly as the other one started shooting at Five. He slid right beside the guard, slicing their side with the sharp metal crowbar. He then stuck the crowbar through the guards head. Blood splattered on the white tile floors as the crowbar came out the other side of the guards head. Five left the crowbar in the guards head as the They fell to the floor. Five continued to run down the hallway, as he had killed all of the guards. He skidded out of the building.

Joey danced to the songs that One was playing. Nine sat on the couch and watched him. Eleven threw pencils into the ceiling and caught them when they came back down. If they even did, that is. They all flinched when someone drenched with blood head to toe barged into the house.
"Five?!" Nine leaned forward in his seat.
"What happened to you? I thought you were teaching at that Dimension thingy." One asked the bloody figure. Five coughed and stretched his arms.
"Well, I successfully killed Number Zero. She was keeping a secret from me." Five explained as his eyes flickered black and red.
"You're kidding, right?" Joey laughed. Five walked over to the coffee table, blood droplets leaving a trail behind him. He placed the now bloody file on the table.
"Ew!" Nine looked at the bloody file with disgust built in his expression.
"Why is there a smiley face drawn with blood on it..?" Eleven looked at the file with confusion.
"I got bored." Five sighed as he cracked his fingers. "More importantly, this will lead be to Seventeen." Five looked at Nine, who was still staring at the file.
"Sweet." Nine nodded and look up to Five.
"This is very important information that will save the whole over world! All you have to say is sweet?" Five grabbed the file from the coffee table.
"I don't know what to say!" Nine shrugged and sighed. "I'm just so.. overly excited.." He smiled and looked to Five.
Five licked his lips and looked over to Eleven, who was leaning on the couch.
"Once we get Seventeen, this will all be over." Five told her.
"What do you mean? Yeah, the world won't end but are you still gonna keep killing those lab workers?" Eleven's shoulders heaved as she looked at Five on the opposite side of the couch.
"Until they're all dead." Five's eyes faded from white to red.
"That won't happen. There are hundreds among thousands of them across the country!" Eleven bared her teeth as she spoke.
"Can we please not worry about this now?" Five looked at her with a daring expression. Eleven closed her eyes and threw her hands up. Nine looked from Eleven to Five.
"What's the first step?" Nine smiled daringly.
"You're not coming." Five told him. Nine's smile turned into a sad frown.
"What?! Why?!" Nine whined.
"This is my mistake, I have to fix it myself." Five gripped the file tighter.
"But I can help! Please?!" Nine begged. Five closed his eyes and took a deep breathe.
"Okay! You can come!" Five gave in with a sigh.
"Yes! I promise I won't get in the way!" Nine stood up and smiled.
"Well, me and Number Nine better get moving. We'll you guys after our trip. Or never." Five smirked and turned towards the front door. Nine scrambled to get his coat on. Before they could open the door, someone started banging loudly on it.
