I do not own Ghostbusters. I only own Lisa.

"Dana, you do realize that many of the guys from the orchestra like you?" I said as my cousin and I left orchestra practice. We were having a show soon and practiced almost every day.

"You also realize that they like you too?" Dana Barrett replied as we walked towards the nearest subway station.

"Sure they do," I said annoyed with a roll of my eyes. "And I like them at first too until they start talking about how great they are or how big their yachts are," I said and my cousin laughed at me.

"What's wrong with that?" she asked even though she already knew the answer.

"Because I actually want a guy that isn't so full of himself, and a guy that can actually carry a nice conversation," I said as we entered the subway station.

"Well I'm sure you'll find the right guy one day, but for now, let's get home. Tomorrow I'll need your help getting groceries," my cousin said and I just gave a nod as I looked at my reflection in the subway window. I looked a lot like my cousin with my brown hair, but I had grey eyes.

The trip to Central Park West didn't take too long thankfully, but I just hoped we dodged our neighbor today. He was a nice guy but he practically drooled every time he saw my cousin. Every time he saw me alone, he would bug me to death about her.

We were lucky that we were able to get into my cousin's apartment without running into Louis. She unlocked the door and I was glad to be home as I set my stuff down in my bedroom. I had lived with my cousin the last few years after I was accepted into the same orchestra as her.

"Lisa, is pasta ok for dinner?" Dana called out from her bedroom.

"Sure, want some help?" I asked as I kicked off my shoes and left my room.

"If you'll make the garlic bread, then I'll cook the pasta," my cousin replied and I just gave a thumb up.

"Sounds like a plan and later we'll eat ice cream," I said which made her rolls her eyes at me with a laugh.

"You're going to turn into ice cream," she quipped back.

"Not the worst fate, I guess," I said and laughed when she hit me with a spoon.

The next day, we went to the grocery store to get a few things. I carried two bags while my cousin carried one since she was going to unlock the door. I was just happy the elevator was working today, but the happiness died a little bit when we ran into Louis.

"Hey Dana, Lisa, you guys left the television on," Louis said as he stepped closer to us.

"We didn't even turn it on this morning," I said confused as I looked at my cousin, who just shrugged her shoulders. "Did someone break into our apartment?" I thought.

"Oh I'm having a party soon, you guys should come," Louis was saying, but I politely cut him off after saying we would think about it.

"Dana, someone might have broken in," I said and her eyes widened. I barely grabbed the other bag of groceries from her as she rushed to the door. I frowned when the door wasn't unlocked. "See you later, Louis," I said and slowly followed my cousin into the apartment.

"Nothing is missing our even messed up," Dana said as she helped me set down the bags of groceries.

"Why would Louis hear noises coming from the apartment then?" I asked and set down my coat on the couch.

"Who knows, what should we make for lunch?" Dana asked as we started setting the groceries on the counter and in the pantries.

I went to answer but stopped when we heard some popping and sizzling noises. I turned to look behind me and saw the carton of eggs was open. The eggshells were cracking and the egg inside was popping out onto the counter and starting to cook on its own. I jumped when my cousin grabbed my arm and pulled me away from the counter.

She went to say something but stopped when a loud growl came from the refrigerator.

"We shouldn't open that," I whispered but she slowly pulled me with her to open the refrigerator. My eyes widened as we opened the refrigerator and the food was gone.

In the refrigerator was a temple surrounded by golden lights and clouds. A dog-like creature was standing on part of the temple. It looked directly at us and growled the word, "Zuul."

"Close the door," I shouted and slammed the refrigerator door shut when the creature looked ready to attack us. "Grab your stuff and let's go to Claudia's house, now," I shouted and rushed over the couch. I grabbed my coat and bag, and my cousin did the same before we left the apartment. She locked the door behind us.

"What in the world was that?" Dana asked as we hailed a taxi.

"Something not from this world, that's for sure," I said and shivered as I remembered the scary feeling I got when looking at the temple. "If you saw that too, then I know it wasn't a dream," I said and felt her grab my hand.

"Who can we go to for help with this?" Dana questioned quietly when we got in the backseat of the taxi.

"I don't know yet, but I'll find out. We can't stay with Claudia forever," I said and glanced down at my hands, which were shaking. "What was that?" I thought and hoped that it didn't mean anything bad for me or my cousin.
