As Hannah woke up from her sleep she gazed at the ceiling then turned her head to her night stand to the left of her bed and saw her digital flashing 7:00am in big green lights as much as she wanted to go back to sleep today she had to get up because she started her new job today.
after working in a hospital for 7 years she felt she needed a change plus after all the weird stuff that has been happening around New York over the past couple of years she thought it was time for a change, she sat up and walked into her bathroom to have a shower. An hour later when she left the bathroom in only a towel as she looked in the big mirror on her wardrobe she started to think about some of the things she use to think about when she was little she believed in ghost, aliens and other stuff but as she grew up she made up her mind that none of it was real.
Even just remembering it made her smile, she thought about what had changed her mind and that was when she was 15 when she not only saw a real ghost but it also went throw her leaving a mark on her chest, which she still had to this day. She also had a scar on her left shoulder; this was from trying to disarm a knife wielding patient that was really not well on her very first day as a trainee at the hospital. Now aged 27 as she got dressed she thought about what she should wear as she stood in just her black laced matching underwear, not asking what she should turn up in she shook her head and just went with what she preferred to wear which were her knee long combat trousers, a combat shirt, a pair of red fingerless gloves and her white trainers.
Just as Hannah went to leave, she re-entered her bedroom to get the red coloured string that was around her bed post. Using this she tied up her medium length black coloured hair up into a pony tail. Hannah remembered when her brother got her it when she was 9 and he said it will always bring her luck and to date it has Hannah left her apartment locking it behinds her then headed down the stairs to the main door to head to her new job humming 'we're not gonna take it'
Hannah continued to hum 'we're not gonna take it' as she headed down the block she looked to the left and she saw the sign of her new place of work she chuckled even after all the trouble they get up to and all the people saying they are fraudsters yet not only was they still in business but also hiring, with a smile on her face she headed to the Ghostbusters building, as she reached the main door she took one more look at the big sign hanging on the front of the building she entered.
Hannah looked ahead as she entered the building and saw Ecto-1 all the time she had seen it speeding round New York on their way to jobs she had always wanted to be able to drive it but with her not having a drivers licences she knows that till she do's she isn't going to be able to but she didn't mind this job was going to be enough fun, she looked to the left of Ecto-1 and saw the lockers of the Ghostbusters and stairs heading to upstairs as well as a fire fighter pole joining the first floor with the ground and to the right of Ecto-1 was just to put it simply a dump there was boxes, car parts and rubbish all over the place, Hannah walked around Ecto-1 to get behind it and to the right there she could see the big painting of Vigo and she still remembered the incident on new year that was reported in the paper and news, to the left was a big fish tank looking thing with a green blob with arms, eyes and a mouth in it, and ahead of her was offices and the main desk that had Janine sat at talking on the phone to maybe a customer but by Janine's reaction probably not as she hung up not impressed.
Hannah smiled and walked up to the desk as Janine took off her phone headset to straighten her glasses and hair.
"Hello and welcome to the Ghostbusters do u have an appointment?" asked Janine
Hannah nodded as she said "yes I'm here for the job I had a interview few days ago"
"Ar I remember Ray, Egon and Peter are up stairs if you wish to let them know your here" said Janine as she pointed to the stairs heading up
"Ok thank you Janine" said Hannah as she turned and headed to the stairs then up them.
As Hannah reached the top of the stairs she saw a tec area with computers and bits of equipment in it a small living area with a sofa, TV and pool table, next to that was a kitchen area with some arcade games next to the door that lead to the bunk area as far as she could tell.
Stood just in between the tec area and living area was Ray and Egon, Ray had on his proton pack and Egon was adjusting some of the settings on it while talking to Ray.
"Ray you do know this could be a bit dangerous" said Egon as he continued to adjust the proton pack.
Ray shook his head as he said "Great danger is our life" then he turned his head and saw Hannah walking towards them "Hey it's our new recruit hi Hannah"
"Hi Ray, Egon should I even ask?" said Hannah as she had got to know them the few times they had to be called to the hospital that she worked in because most of the time she was the one that had to call them and move patients out of the area.
"Hi just fitting Ray with one of our new packs" said Egon then to Ray "just to keep possible skin irritation or burning to a minimum we'll start at 50%"
"Hey don't use Ray Egon our insurance and stuff are in his name if you have to use anyone use our new recruit" said the carm voice of Peter.
Hannah looked at Peter as she said "well thanks Peter" Hannah just soughed her shoulders and said "sure Egon use me what's the worst thing that could happen" as she walked up to Egon and Ray, Egon turned and got another proton pack and with Ray helped Hannah put it on.
"You might feel a bit of a tingling sensation but not to worry" said Egon.
"he he if it was more than that Egon I think you and Ray would be the first to know" said Hannah as she moved about a bit to get use to the weight of the pack then she picked up the paragoggles and put them on then picked up the P.K.E. meter and attached it to her belt of the pack then picked up a radio and attached it to her left shoulder strap.
Egon then said "Now we're going to go over your training and teaching you everything to do with your proton pack"
Then Ray added "it might take you a while to get master throw skills but it just takes time"
"Don't worry nothing is going to happen" said Peter laughing
Hannah looked at him quickly and said "When ever I've heard people say that Peter something always happens" just them a burst of energy went throw the building making things shake and rattle.
Egon turned to Ray and asked "was that us?"
Ray shook his head as he said "I don't think so" Peter looked at Ray for an explanation
Ray then said "it has to of been a psychic energy pulse a hell of a lot of energy possibility level 7 or more"
Egon nodded his head "agreed we need readings now" as he started to take readings with a P.K.E meter
Janine had come up stairs and she said "I know I'm going to regret this but is this psychic thing bad or very bad?"
Egon turned and said "on a scale of one to ten I would have to say..."
Then Peter quickly said "Let me guess ... it's a 7" with a smile
Hannah looked at him and said "and you just had to wish for it Peter"
Ray then said "well it looks like we're going to be getting real busy"
just then there was a commotion down stairs and Ray ran to the hole with the fire pole coming throw then everyone heard a crash of glass "Slimers escaping" said Ray as he slid down the pole Hannah ran to the pole and slid down it to get down quicker than running down the stairs she turned her head to where Janine would be sat and she saw Ray going past the big fish tank thing that she had seen the green blob in earlier which was now missing, and then she saw him head to another set of stairs heading down so she ran to catch up.
As she headed down the stairs she saw Ray and Egon looking at something, as she neared the bottom she was able to see what they was looking which was the green blob called 'Slimer' and a big wall unit that she did not know what it was, Hannah then heard Ray and Egon talking
"There he is" whispered Egon "he seems oddly drawn to the containment grid"
Ray with enthrosiasum said "yar ever since you added the viewing screen to it" then he turned to Hannah "ok easy Hannah I'll talk you throw what we want you to do, use the proton stream to get his attention"
Hannah turned and said "ok" the turned to face Slimer and got her proton pack gun and activated it she aimed at Slimer just as she was about to fire she thought ^I hope this is a good idea^ and she fired.
Just as the beam was about to hit Slimer he moved and it hit the containment grid and Slimer floated throw a wall to the of them which had a door next to it
"No not the containment grid Hannah that's some really technical piece of equipment you're destroying" said Ray
Hannah turned and said "sorry Ray didn't think he would move that quickly" just then as Hannah finished speaking another ghost pulled itself free from the damaged grid and followed Slimer
"Oh another one got free" said Ray as it too went past him
"That's my fault" said Egon "I was fine-turning the grid earlier I'll fix this while your two get them ghosts back"
Hannah nodded and said "ok" and headed to Ray as he opened the door to follow the ghosts, as Ray opened the door he said "they have headed to our sub-basement, well we have a job for you now Hannah following the right precisions Slimer's more or less harmless, but I'm not too sure on his tubby friend"
Ray turned as he got his proton pack gun out and activated "ok then let's go get them" he opened the door and lead the way and as they headed to the sub-basement door he said to Hannah "oh and don't sweat about the containment grid Egon can fix it plus it can get exciting the first time you fire your proton stream" They reached the door and Ray opened it then they entered
As Hannah looked around the basement she saw beams holding the roof up as well as large sections of walls too holding it up, around the area was boxes and a drainage area at the back to the left was a small room which was empty and floating about in front of them was Slimer
Ray quickly turned to Hannah and said "before we get him let me quickly go over the more important things about your pack this is your heat bar" pointing to some LED lights on the side of her pack as well as the top of the gun "before it reaches the top you need to vent it by pressing this switch or it will sort out and then reset which could be a problem when you're fighting a ghost"
then he pointed to another which had four lights but only one was lit up with letters under them on Hannah's she saw a E, R, P and a Z but on Rays he had a H where the R was on hers "this is our stats lights it shows how everyone is in our team they only activate when we're wearing our packs, green means everything's fine, amber means we're hurt, red means we need help, and white one of us has been possessed by a ghost which should not happen"
"now catching a ghost is pretty easy but we have broken it down to three parts zap them, cap them then trap them, all ghost get there energy from drawing on PKE energies but blasting them with your proton stream or other offensive equipment disperse it making them easier to catch" said Ray then he pointed at Slimer "go ahead and give it a go"
Hannah nodded and aimed at Slimer but this time when she fired it hit him as it hit him around circle appeared on her gun which was all green but 3 of the 12 lights were out
Ray also aim at Slimer as he said "that's the ghost acuminated PKE the more lights got out means the less PKE energy it has which means it'll be easier to catch"
as Slimer flow about trying to get away both Hannah and Ray kept hitting him turning the lights off one by one just as there was 5 lights left on Slimer turned and flow straight at Hannah she quickly jumped out of the way but it was only a diversion as he then flow throw the wall behind her and escaped
"Dam we lost Slimer" said Ray then he turned to Hannah and asked "are you ok?"
"I'm fine Ray just sorry Slimer got away" said Hannah then there was a flash of light and the ghost that escaped the containment grid appeared from the look of it the person must of been eating when they died because it throw a ball of PKE sick at both Hannah and Ray they both moved and avoided the attack Hannah aimed at the ghost and fired hitting it in the chest then she fired again after venting the proton pack to stop it shorting out and fired again hitting it in the head
Ray then fired his proton gun hitting it too the green circle was quickly going down just as it reached the last 4 dots the ghost suddenly charged forward making both Hannah and Ray again have to avoid being hit by the ghost it then turned left and went straight at Hannah
"oh sh...!" started Hannah as it hit her taking her off her feet and throwing her backwards 2 feet making her crash in to a big stack of wooded boxes destroying a lot of them, the ghost turned and went to attack Hannah again but Ray fired at it making it move away and only pay attention to him not even a minute after he heard boxes moving quickly he turned and looked and saw Hannah kick boxes off herself then she stood up and just as she got clear of the boxes Hannah raised her proton gun with her right hand and fired at the ghost while at the same time with her left hand unhooked her trap and throw it towards the ghost
as the proton beam hit the ghost the green circle only had two lights on it Ray also saw this and shouted "when a ghost gets weakened enough you will then be able to throw a catcher stream at it by pressing the bottom next to the vent one but the pack will automatically do it for you when the ghost is weak enough" just after he finished speaking the proton beam formed a ball around the ghost and Hannah used it to slam the ghost into a wall to the right of Ray she then moved the ghost over too where she had throw her trap, which she knew where it was because it had a light shinning up from it.
As she got the ghost over it and the trap opened and started to pull the ghost too it, the ghost tried to put up a fight but then Ray with the help of his own catcher stream helped Hannah move it quicker to the trap which then closed pulling the ghost into it
Just as the trap shut both Hannah and Ray deactivated the catcher stream then Ray said "alright 1 escapee accounted for, oh and don't forget to get your trap Hannah"
Hannah walked up to her trap then tapped it with her foot saying "not so tough now are u tubs" then she picked it up and attached it back to her belt on her pack.
Just then Egon called over the radio "did you get them?"
Ray replied "no Slimer got away but Hannah caught the other one it was a nasty one" then to Hannah "oh and err you got to be very careful about crossing the streams in a word don't do it"
"Seriously" said Egon over the radio
"Because it stings like the dickens" said Ray as he motioned Hannah to follow him back up stairs
Hannah walked to catch up and asked "what is that meant to mean Ray?"
Sometime later after Egon had repaired the containment grid and the ghost Hannah had caught had been put back into it and Ray had got a medic kit to get a plaster for Hannah because she had got a cut over her cheek because of her fall into the wooden boxes from the ghost then they headed back to the ground floor and to the front near Ecto-1 where Peter was waiting for them then he asked "how come she gets to try our new stuff first?"
Egon quickly said "because she is our new experimental equipment technician"
"WHAT she gets a cool name too!?" complained Peter but Hannah was not liking the name
Ray then explained to Peter "basically Hannah gets to test out our new gear which could blow her somewhere in to New Jersey"
"Oh so this trainee gets to carry a bunch of untested bits of gear they could blow her somewhere in to New Jersey ...Thanks well good luck" said Peter to Hannah.
To which she said "yar thanks Peter I always wanted to be blow into New Jersey" she just shook her head and asked "so where would Slimer go?"
Ray then said "to the Sedgewich Hotel that was where we first caught the little spud"
"Right to its original manifestation point" said Egon then he, Ray and Peter started to get into Ecto-1
Peter stopped and said to Janine "when Winston calls ask him to meet us at the Sedgewich" then to Hannah "well looks like your trainings going to be on the clock come on"
"Well this is going to be fun never been to the Sedgewich before" said Hannah as she got in and belted up then after the main door opened Ray turned on the siren and they headed to the Sedgewich Hotel.
