Mostly Ghostly 3: One Night in Doom House Page #5

---

I hope you're all ready to get

your groove, thangs grooving.

And now, without further ado,

please welcome

our first contestants,

James whale high's very own

norm's discount

fish market dancers!

Cammie!

Max, what are you doing?

What is he doing out there?

Doyle! Get off the stage,

you idiot!

Cammie, you're in danger.

What do we do?

Max has to dance better.

What?

I can't believe

you're doing this.

You're ruining everything.

Doyle, when we get outside,

I'm gonna...

What are you doing?

Just hold on.

What do we do now?

Follow him.

Max, that was amazing!

I had no idea you

could dance like that!

I've been taking

lessons on the Internet.

We've got to go!

I...

That crystal I gave you?

Thanks again,

i really love it.

Good. But I need it back.

What? Why?

It's a long story.

I'll get you

another one, I promise.

I need you to give

it to me, right now.

I can't.

Why not?

I don't have it.

Thank you!

What do you mean? What did you

do with it? I gave it to Phoebe.

She's going to use it

to make me a bracelet.

Phoebe?

Okay, so where's Phoebe?

I don't know,

probably at her house.

She doesn't

really like crowds.

Now,

what's this all about, Max?

If I told you,

you wouldn't believe me.

Try me.

I found the crystal

in a box in my house.

It was left there

by some scientists

who used it to

trap an evil ghost,

but somehow,

he escaped and possessed

the body of

a reality TV show star

up at the old grover mansion.

Now he's after the crystal, so he

can unleash his army of the undead,

and plunge our world

into eternal darkness.

You're right.

I don't believe you.

Max, he's coming!

What are we gonna do?

Who are you talking to?

We gotta get outta here.

I'm not going

anywhere with you, Max.

This ghost stuff of

yours is getting old.

You know what? You can forget

about us having a break.

This is now a breakup.

Depew"...One more time!

No, cammie, wait.

Depew"...Fish market dancers!

Hey, phears!

I got your crystal

right here.

I've had just

about enough of this.

Come on.

Where's my bike?

Come in!

Bernie, I gotta talk to Phoebe.

It's an emergency.

An emergency about my dumb sister?

Yeah, right.

What happened,

somebody choke on

one of her stupid

necklaces or something?

Just go get her

for me, please.

I can't.

Why not?

'Cause she's not here.

Okay, well then, why didn't

you just say that, then?

You didn't ask

if she was home,

you asked if you

could talk to her.

Okay, she's got something of

mine, and I need to get it back.

Guess you'll have to wait

till she comes home.

No, I don't have time to wait. Maybe

i could just go look in her bedroom?

Are you kidding?

Ifl let you in her room,

she'll kill me.

-Great. You just made me die!

-You lose, sucker!

Okay, I'm sorry, Bernie,

but look, this is important.

What's in it for me?

I've got the new

star raiders game.

Volume four?

Yeah, take me to her room,

and it's yours.

You're on your own. This

place gives me a headache.

Where is it?

Come on,

it's gotta be here somewhere.

Great, I'm never gonna

find it in all of this junk.

I don't happen to

think it's junk, Max Doyle.

And what are you

doing in my room?

Phoebe, listen, that crystal, the one

cammie gave to you, where is it?

The one for her bracelet?

Yes, you have to

give it to me right now.

Why? I just... I need it back, okay?

Please.

Does cammie know about this?

Yes. I mean,

well, no, not exactly.

I better call her

just to make sure.

No! No, wait!

Phoebe. She's not

taking any calls right now.

Phoebe, please,

where is the crystal?

It's in here somewhere.

I think I put it in...!

Aha!

What are all of these?

Max, clearly, you don't know

anything about making a bracelet.

I can't just use

one stone, can I?

I used cammie's crystal, and

then I made a bunch of copies.

What? How am I supposed

to find the real one?

Don't worry. I'll find it.

You know, Max,

I heard about you and cammie,

and how you're on

a bit of a break.

And if you ever

want to watch a movie,

or go get some ice cream

or something,

or if you everjust need

a shoulder to cry on...

Phoebe, the crystal?

Right.

Here it is.

Phoebe, I could kiss you!

We now return to

Simon Drake, ghost hunter.

That's weird.

Don't touch it.

Welcome to

a very special edition

ofsimon Drake, ghost hunter.

And tonight,

we have a real treat for you.

I guess you

really like this show?

Usually, I just hunt

for spirits on my show,

but tonight,

I've captured two of them.

No!

Poor little ghosts...

all locked up like this.

But there is one way

to free them,

and you know what it is...

Don't you, Max?

You know him, Max?

Not exactly.

You've got until the next commercial

break to give me what I want, Max.

Or your friends here, well,

they're going to end up

like all bad TV shows.

They're going to be canceled.

That 3D stuff is

getting better all the time.

The crystal.

He wants this crystal.

I... I don't understand.

How did he even know

you were watching?

I don't have time

to explain.

I have to get to that house.

Phoebe, do you have a bike?

Pull over!

I wanna talk to you!

Not now, Aaron!

Now, Doyle!

I told you to pull over.

Aaron,

i don't have time for this.

Yeah, well,

you better make time.

Now, my dad put a lot of money

into that contest tonight,

then you had to

come along, and start

bugging cammie and

mess everything up!

Cammie, she's... cammie

doesn't want to be with you.

Can't you understand that?

Isn't that

the stone you gave her?

No, don't touch that.

She gave it back to you,

Told you it was over.

I'll take that.

Who are you?

Someone who wants

the crystal.

Yeah, well,

get your own, buddy,

'cause this one's going to...

You're gonna

make me chase you?

Hi, remember that

crystal I gave you?

Yeah, I'm gonna need it back.

Nicky! Tara! Where are you?

Max!

No, Max, stay away!

No, Max!

Max!

Max, get away!

Save yourself, Max! Run!

I'm not leaving

without you guys.

Max!

That gets the old

blood flowing, doesn't it?

Isn't it brave of them,

trying to save you?

Well, now it's your turn to save them.

Give me the crystal.

Free them first,

then I'll give it to you.

No. No, no, no.

That's not how it works.

First,

you give me the crystal, see?

Then I free them.

Max, no!

Don't do it, Max!

What's the matter?

You don't trust me?

So why don't you freeze me, like

the way you did my parents?

Then you could

just take the crystal.

Maybe I don't want to?

Maybe you can't.

You can't take

the crystal from me.

I have to give it

to you, don't I?

That's how it works.

What is this anyway?

It's his life pod!

What?

If you must.

What is this?

To the rolands,

it was an experiment.

To me and all the other

ghosts they captured...

It is a prison.

Wait, each one of these

is a ghost?

Very smart, for a mortal.

Every single crystal

represents one of my soldiers

captured by Nicky

and Tara's parents,

locked away here

for all eternity.
