Disclaimer: I love EGB and just make up fics for them in my head. This is the first one that I have tried to get on paper (or whatever) so I hope I've done ok. For some reason I have an obsession with Eduardo getting turned into something… Oh well. Enjoy!
The Ghostbusters's Catastrophe
Part 1: The Normal Day
"Cats!"
"Dogs!"
"Cats!"
"Dogs!"
"Cats!"
"Dogs!"
It was a normal day at the firehouse. That's right, Eduardo and Kylie were battling it out again over a petty argument while everyone else could only wait until it cooled over. The others had figured out a long time ago that you couldn't reason with either of them when they were fighting like this. Once and a while Garrett tried to break it up just to get snapped at by Kylie. Though whenever it seemed like it was going to get physical Egon stepped between the two and was usually capable of making some kind of work that would keep them separated. This fight had no need for physical attacks so it seemed that this would last a while.
It was another slow day with no calls, no work, and nothing to do. Even though no one wanted a ghost on the rampage, everyone wanted a call to come in. Even Slimmer was unusually calm. It was a Ghostbusters nightmare.
"Cats!"
"Give me one good reason why cats are better than dogs!" said Eduardo.
"Cats are much smarter than dogs. They're independent, loyal, and don't stink up the whole house!" rallied Kylie. "What makes dogs better than cats?"
"Dogs are way more loyal! And what makes you say that cats are smart? They're stupid enough to not come when you call and you can't teach them any tricks!"
"That's a sign of independence!" snapped Kylie. "Dogs are stupid enough to roll around in the mud and then come into the house and get it all over the carpet!" The war was starting to heat up enough that Eduardo and Kylie started pacing each other.
"Oh, and I suppose you've had a dog?" Eduardo inquired.
"Yes, and it was so stupid that--"
RINGGG…RINGGG…RINGGG…
Janine grabbed the phone. "Yes…… All right…we'll send someone right over. Thanks." She hung up and started reading her newspaper again.
"Janine! Who called? Where are we going? You're supposed to tell us! That is your job!" said Garrett.
"Here it is!" Janine yelled throwing down the newspaper. She was pointing at an article about the new museum opening next week. "Garrett, you have to be more patient. Oh, and don't ever tell me what my job is again," she remarked snidely.
"Let's roll!" said Garrett.
"That sounds corny," said Eduardo, "Where did you come up with that?"
"Oh, somewhere." And with that he rolled off to the Ecto1.
