Before you read this, I want to point some things out. First off, this is told from my character\'s point of view. Second, him & a bunch of his friends are human born mutants like the X-Men. My character has other powers too. You see some of my character\'s powers described in this. They are also Pokémon trainers while some also have Digimon partners. Third, my character is also a Ninja Storm Power Ranger. The Purple Wind Ranger to be exact. Fourth, with the use of his powers & intelligence, my character designed, built & gave life to Autobots who call him \"dad\". This takes place in the summer of 2003.
Spirits Of 1776
By Bobby T.
One Day, my dad got me a job as a prop master for the 1776 play he was in and I saw Blake & Hunter working there. I befriended some of the cast members like the two women who played Martha Jefferson, named Angela & Jolene, & the woman who played Abigail Adams, named Patricia, and some of the guys who play the men in Congress.
As days went by, I had eaten subs for dinner almost everyday and built some of the props in my garage/workshop. I built two flyswatters, some of the desks & the tally board. I also made a customized bell for the secretary.
One day, my spider-sense started going crazy when I was backstage. I thought Lothor or one of his goons was in the area and told Blake & Hunter that I was gonna check around. I activated my old Visual Scanner and switched it to Alien Mode to search for alien DNA. But I found no traces of aliens anywhere.
I switched my Visual Scanner to Ecto-Mode and found ectoplasmic residue all over the theater. I was very shocked and I informed Blake, Hunter, and my dad of what I learned. I realized that I forgot to tell Blake & Hunter that I was one of the West Coast Extreme Ghostbusters and that was why I didn’t freak when their parents’ ghosts appeared before us in the Cavern Of Lost Souls when Blake & Hunter tried to kill Sensei a few months ago. They understood and we went back to working on the set.
A week later, strange things started happening. The computer started playing the wrong music. Lights flickered on & off. Speakers gave off a lot of feedback noise. It was getting too weird for the cast. I had no choice but to go to the library and look at old newspapers to find out what might be causing it.
Using my speed, I managed to cover the first 7 years of the theater in less than a few minutes. It was then I came across something that happened back in 1988. Something unbelievable.
“Electrical Fire Claims Six At Local Dinner Theater.” it read.
As I read it, I discovered that six of the cast members that were performing the exact same play died in an electrical fire while singing “Plays The Violin” in the last scene of the first act. I had to tell Bonnie Jo, Fesha & David since they were fellow Ghostbusters. I enlarged one of my Poké Balls and had my Skarmory come out. I jumped onto his back and we flew back to my house to tell my three friends.
We saw Bonnie Jo flying through the air on her angelic wings with her Digimon partner Biyomon and I told her what I found out. We got home and went to tell Fesha & David who were playing a video game.
I noticed Fesha was using his electrokinetic abilities to help him get the upper hand on David so I used my mutant psychic powers to paralyze his mutant powers. David beat Fesha and Fesha asked me why I stopped him. I reminded him that there’s honor everywhere and he understood. Bonnie Jo & I told them about what I found out about the theater and we all agreed to be on the alert on opening night.
Two weeks later, the play had its opening night and I was really excited. All of my roommates/fellow mutants were coming to see the play and so were Philippe, Dustin, Shane, Cam, Tori & Sensei. Fesha was flying through the building’s electrical systems to make sure everything was in working condition and Hunter & Blake were setting up the tables. I put out all of the props needed for Act One and waited backstage.
When the play started, I started thinking about a new weapon for Shane. I wrote down the stuff about the weapon and put it in the pocket of my notebook. Things seemed to be going great so far until Angela started singing “Plays The Violin” in the last scene of Act 1. And that’s when my spider-sense started going crazy.
Suddenly, one of the stage lights broke loose and started falling. I grabbed one of my Poké Balls and had my Bug Pokémon Spinarak come out. He used his Stringshot attack while I fired some webs from the organic web-shooters on my wrists to get Mick, aka John Adams, Don, aka Ben Franklin, & Angela out of the way. The light hit the stage and Mick, Don & Angela thanked me & Spinarak for saving them. I called Spinarak back into his ball and pulled out my PKE-Meter because I knew that something supernatural was behind the light falling.
I got a reading and it brought me to the pirate ship piece that was backstage. The readings were incredibly strong. The readings indicated six Class 7 entities inside. I realized that the ghosts of the six actors who had died in the electrical fire back in 1988 and they were inside the pirate ship piece. I alerted Bonnie Jo, Fesha & David to go get the Proton Packs telepathically while I tried to get the ghosts out in the open.
I used my magic to make the computer start playing “Plays The Violin” to drive them out and it worked. The ghosts came out and they were uglier than the Elephant Man back in the late 1800s, due to dying in an electrical fire.
I saw sparks shooting out of a nearby wall socket and knew who was causing it. Fesha came out with my Proton Pack and tossed it to me. I powered it up once I caught it and told Fesha to create an electromagnetic force field around us & the ghosts after Bonnie Jo flew in carrying David & their gear. Fesha did what I asked and the six ghosts knew they couldn’t escape.
They came at us with rage and we started blasting them. I managed to snag the two female ghosts and Bonnie Jo threw out a Ghost Trap. She opened it and the two ghosts got sucked in before the trap closed. Fesha blasted the Thomas Jefferson & the stage crew ghosts and Bonnie Jo put them in the trap.
David had a hard time with the Franklin & Adams ghosts so Fesha & I helped him out by cornering them. The three of us blasted the two ghosts and gave Bonnie Jo the signal to throw out the last trap. She did and we brought the ghosts over it before Bonnie Jo opened it. The trap’s vacuum sucked the two remaining ghosts in and the trap closed. Fesha disengaged the force field and the four of us congratulated each other on an excellent job.
I complimented Fesha on his entrance via the socket and he thanked me as I picked up the three smoking Ghost Traps. Angela came running out with Patricia, Mick’s wife who played Abigail Adams, and they both hugged me as they thanked me & my friends for stopping the ghosts. I introduced them to Bonnie Jo, Fesha & David and said that they were also Pokémon trainers like me. They found it to be cool and I assured them that no supernatural phenomenon will ever occur in the theater again.
I took the three traps to the parking lot where my Autobot son Tornado Roller the Emergency SUV of the Rescuebots was and put them in the back of him. Then I went back inside.
The play continued after intermission and it was really fun. I could see my friends in the audience and I saw that they were enjoying the play. It put a smile on my face and I sat back down in my seat near the prop table.
When the play ended, I put the props back on their respective tables and threw away used sheets of paper. I could hear a party going on downstairs in the dressing room and it reminded me of when I was always invited to parties as a kid. I decided to stay upstairs and wait to see if anyone wanted me to join them. No one did. I went out into the lobby and joined my friends before we went home & to deposit the ghosts.
The next day, everything seemed normal. Blake, Hunter & I went to work backstage and I chatted with a few cast members. Patricia asked me how long I had been a Ghostbuster and I told her that I had been one for almost six years. She was really amazed when I told her. And even more amazed when I told her that my friends & I get our funding from the U.S. government. She thanked me for stopping the ghosts again and we started the play.
THE
END
