This new story is actually based on the current Ghostbusters comic series Ghostbusters Ineternational
However I changed a few bits around such as the Ghostbusters staying in New York and not leaving for Italy.
Also, Peter not Egon gets injured.
Plus can the Ghostbusters handle the job while taking care of Peter as he recovers?
Note: This is also going to be a bit darker than my last few stories plus it's my first multi chapter story

It was in the later part of the afternoon one day,when the Ghostbusters were called to a local warehouse storage faucility, after the manager called saying that a few of his workers heard strange noises and saw something that the called unbelieveable and something out of a movie.
Of course, the guys took the job assignment in a heartbeat, since it had been rather slow for them the last few days.
Once they arrived, the manager lead the Ghostbusters into the warehouse for them to look around.
"The most my crew has ever seen is a rat, but now they said it's something a lot bigger than any rodent," said the manager.
"Seems more like a job for an exterminator than us," said Peter.
"Don't worry, we'll find," said Ray, as he and his fellow Ghostbusters entered the storage faucility.
Once the four Ghostbusters entered, they split up to cover the entire area.
"Do guys see anything?" Winston called out.
Egon looked at his PKE meter and answered,"I'm getting negitive readings."
"I don't see anything either, said Peter, Maybe it was a rat that looked humongous in the shadows."
"Uh guys, fellas, I can use some help here,Ray called out.
Sure enough, Ray was telling the truth, for as the other Ghostbusters met up with him, all four found themselves face-to-face with a creature that was floating above them.
Thankfully, the four were hidden behind some crates, so the ghoul wouldn't spot them.
"What the hell is that?" asked Winston.
"Your guess is as good as mine," Ray answered.
Peter looked closely at the floating object and said,"Looks like a inbreeding of a dog,lion,rabbit,wolf,fox, and either an otter or seal gone horribly wrong.
Enough of the questions and guessing, let's zap this mother."
Peter was ready to shoot, as he aimed the wand of his proton pack, but Egon stopped him by placing a hand on his shoulder.
"Wait a second Venkman, we need a strategy before we attack," Egon pointed out.
"Here's my strategy, let's kick this thing in the ass," said an impatient Peter.
"Egon's right, we've dealt with pretty heavy stuff, but nothing like this," Winston pointed out.
"And we dealt with a one hundred foot marshmellow man," Ray added.
"OK, so what do we do then?" asked Peter.
"My best bet is that we corner this thing."
"Good idea," said Egon.
"Let's do this then," said Winston.
The Ghostbusters then quietly crept up on the animal-like spirit, Peter out in front, Egon from behind and Ray and Winston taking opposite sides.
By now, the "ghost" had spotted the Ghostbusters and let out a loud growl.
"OK, now I think we should appoarch this with ease," said Ray.
But Peter had another plan.
"Fire!" he shouted, as a beam appeared from his proton pack wand.
"So much for ease," said Winston, as his lit his wand as well, followed by Ray and Egon.
By now, the beast was furious and growled even louder than before.
"Keep it steady, I think we have it under control," said Ray.
Just then, the spirit shot something out of it's mouth.
The object it produced turned out to be a clear liquid and it hit Peter on the lower part of his arm and wrist.
"Ouch!" Peter yelled as the substance touch the sleeve of his flightsuit, as it felt extremly hot.
This of course caused Peter to loss control of his wand, nearly zapping Winston, before the beam disappeared.
"Hey watch it Peter, you almost vaporized me!" Winston shouted.
"Something's wrong with Peter! Ray yelled through out the commotion, who then turned to his friend and asked,"You OK?"
"Do I look like it?" snapped Peter, who was indeed of help.
The liquid had somehow burned the sleeve of his flightsuit and exposed his forearm, which appeared to look bright red and was bleeding.
Egon and Winston countinued to fight the object, while Ray stopped to tend to Peter who was now craddling his injured arm.
Ray the pulled his friend out of the way and next to the side of a large crate , just as the spirit spat out another shot of the liquid.
"Was that acid?" Ray wondered.
"Hey Ray, we can use some extra beams if you don't mind!" yelled Winston.
Ray then went back into action.
Although it was now just the three ghostbusters everything seemed to be under control.
"We have it in place!
Someone get the trap ready!" called Egon.
Winston did just that.
But when he stomped it open, the creature vanished.
"Did we trap it?" asked Winston.
"Unfortuntly not," Egon answered.
Ray picked up the trap and added,"You're right.
If we did the light would had turn red and the top would be smoking.
Sure enough, the trap's light was off and not smoke was vaporing out.
"Has anything like that ever happened before?" Winston asked.
"Never," Ray answered.
"Usually the spirit escapes but not vanish into thin air.
It's highly impossible," said Egon.
Meanwhile, Peter a merged from the side of the crate, cluching his arm.
"As much as I hate to break up your disscussion, I can use some help right about now," he said with pain in his voice.
Ray then appoarched Peter and said looking at his arm," We better get you to a doctor."
"No kidding," Peter snapped.
Being that he was injured, Ray excused Peter's additude and helped him out of the warehouse.
Meanwhile, Egon was kneeling by the acid puddle left by the creature.
Winston appoarched him and said,"Manager's calling an ambulance for Peter."
"I'll be there in a minute," Egon replied.
He then took a test tube from his side pocket case and tried to scoop up a sample.
But when he did, the test tube melted.
"Maybe you should have used a glass tube," Winston suggested.
"That was glass," Egon replied.
Despite not being able to get samples for testing, Egon was able to get a few pictures with his mini camera of the remainder of the acid, as it was starting to burn a hole on the floor before he and Winston met up with Ray and Peter.
