The next day, Sky and Sammy woke up after eating breakfast and were hanging out with Carly and Sam for the day until they were finally coming back to the building.
"You sure you don't mind if I hang at your place 'til dinner?" Sam asked Carly.
"Yeah, that's fine." Carly allowed.
"But don't you think that you should go home to be with Aunt Pam?" Sky suggested.
"What for?" Sam replied.
"'Cuz she's in bad with pneumonia?" Carly pointed out.
"I'm not a doctor." Sam shrugged.
The teenage girls went over to the counter to find a guy, looking in a mirror, trimming his wart.
"Hey, Lewbert." Carly greeted the man.
"WHAT?!" Lewbert replied. "I'm busy trimming my wart hairs!"
"Uh... Yeah... I was just wondering if I got a package yet from the iWeb Awards." Carly told the man.
"NO!" Lewbert glared. "NOW QUIT UPSETTING MY WART!"
"Um, are you sure?" Sammy asked. "Because this guy from England said he was gonna send it-"
Lewbert soon yelled painfully loud before storming off and slamming the door behind him as he left the front desk.
"Well..." Carly replied before mocking his scream back at him. "To you too!"
Sam mock screamed at Lewbert as well. The girls laughed and headed upstairs to Carly's apartment.
"You think Freddie is back from school yet?" Sam wondered.
"Yeah, he got a ride home, why?" Carly replied.
"Bet you he's looking through his peephole, waiting for you to get home." Sam smirked to Carly.
"Why you gotta tease Freddie, Sam?" Sky asked her cousin. "He's your friend."
"Because it's fun teasing that little weenie like your friend Jo does all the time, especially to that little pipsqueak other friend of yours." Sam replied.
"Besides, Freddie grew out of the whole peephole thing." Carly told Sam.
"Uh-huh..." Sam smirked before banging on the door and a scream of pain was heard on the other side, and soon laughed at his misfortune.
Freddie then came out, holding his head.
"So, what's up?" Sam asked.
"I was not looking through my peephole waiting for you to come home." Freddie groaned.
"I know you weren't." Carly smiled innocently.
"Good." Freddie nodded as he rubbed his head.
"Peeper." Sam muttered.
"What?" Freddie asked as they went inside Carly's door and it was pitch dark.
"Did the power go out or something?" Sammy asked.
"Okay, why is it dark in here?" Carly added.
"Because I made this!" Spencer beamed as he wore a helmet on his head with a giant light.
Everyone covered their eyes from the bright light and Freddie turned on the light.
"Why?" Sky asked Spencer.
"It's for jogging at night!" Spencer announced with a smile. "This baby puts out over 19,000 lumens. It can light up a football field."
"How long?" Freddie asked.
"'Til the battery runs out." Spencer replied as he showed a battery pack on his back.
"It's very unique, Spencer." Sammy commented.
"Where did you get the battery pack from?" Sky asked.
"I got it out of a Prius." Spencer smiled.
There was a knock at the door and Sammy opened it to see a frisky looking brown-haired woman.
"Oh, hi, Mrs. Benson." Carly smiled.
"Mom, what are you still doing here?" Freddie asked his mother. "I thought you left for your pottery class."
"I tried to, but my Prius wouldn't start." Mrs. Benson replied.
"Mrs. Benson, I'd like you to meet Sam's cousin, Sky Podemski, and her friend, Sammy McAuley." Carly introduced.
"Hi." Sammy smiled.
"It's nice to meet you, Mrs. Benson." Sky added.
"Likewise," Mrs. Benson replied before taking out a box from SendEx. "Anyway, I forgot. This package addressed to iCarly came yesterday-"
"Yesterday?" Sammy asked.
"I'm sorry," Mrs. Benson said. "I meant to tell Freddie."
"Oh, just give it!" Sam said as she took the box and ran with it.
"Is that from the iWeb Awards?" Spencer asked.
"Yeah." Carly replied while opening the box.
"Come on, which country are we going to?" Freddie asked.
"Uh..." Carly said as she took a look at the box's contents. "Canada."
"Canada?" Sam replied.
"Just kidding, Tokyo, we're going to Japan!" Carly announced.
Everyone cheered, including Sky and Sammy. Freddie even hugged Sky in excitement.
"Sweet!" Spencer smiled to the others. "You know, I took a year of Japanese in college. A little brush up, I'll be speaking Japanese like a... Japanesiologist."
"Freddie, I'm not sure I can allow this." Mrs. Benson sighed to her son.
"Here we go..." Sam groaned.
"Mom!" Freddie whined.
"It's just Japan." Carly replied.
"Right, which is why I worry that... You know the Far East can be very..." Mrs. Benson tried to explain, but soon gave up on herself. "Look, just because I can't think of anything right now, doesn't mean Japan isn't fraught with danger."
"Ugh, come on, lady!" Sam complained.
"It's okay; I'm going with them, so it's not like they won't have a responsible adult making sure everything goes smooth." Spencer told the woman before his head caught on fire.
Everyone then suddenly screamed and panicked.
"Put it out! Put it out!" Freddie cried out.
Sky and Sammy grabbed some rags to put the fire out.
"Ah, thank you, girls," Spencer soon said in relief. "I'll make sure that everything goes smooth in Japan."
"Mrs. Benson, Sammy and I are coming with them, and we're very responsible." Sky told the woman.
"You guys are really nice and sweet, but since one of you is related to a Puckett, I'm afraid I can't risk it." Mrs. Benson replied.
"What did she say?" Sam growled.
"Uh, Sam, did you get new contacts or something?" Carly nervously asked. "Because your eyes are beady red."
Sam soon stormed toward Mrs. Benson. "What did you say about being a Puckett?!"
"Sam, don't do anything, please!" Freddie begged.
"Sky, this is what we were talking about." Carly told the black-haired older girl.
"Um, Mrs. Benson, why don't you come with us?" Sky changed the subject nervously.
"Aaaugh!" Sam roared.
"What?" Sky asked.
"I don't want to take a trip across the world with this messed up woman!" Sam complained.
Freddie glanced over at Sam while his mother shook her head dismissively about him going all the way to Japan.
"Come on, Mrs. Benson, it'll be fun," Spencer smiled. "What's that? I think I hear Tokyo calling Toki-you."
"Come with us to Japan," Freddie told his mother. "I know that you love sushi."
"I suppose it would be nice to try a California roll from where it all started." Mrs. Benson admitted.
"Wait, hang on, little problem." Carly said as she had the tickets.
"What is it, Carly?" Sammy asked.
"There's only three plane tickets." Carly realized.
"Oh, good!" Sam replied.
Everyone then glared at the blonde tomboy.
"I mean 'Oh, no'." Sam replied.
"Here, let me see," Spencer said before his sister gave him the plane tickets and he took a look at them. "Okay, great, these are first class tickets. I can just trade these for seven coach seats and we're all set."
"All right, so if we're going to Japan, there's preparation to be done," Mrs. Benson told the others. "We need passports, fresh underwear, avoiage converable for your night light."
Sam and Carly giggled to Freddie.'
"I don't need a night light anymore." Freddie smiled suavely to the girls.
"That's okay, Freddie; one of my friends back home uses a night light," Sammy coaxed. "But... She's younger than you."
"Gee, thanks." Freddie muttered.
Mrs. Benson took her son home to get things ready.
"Excuse me, I wanna talk to Sam alone for a second." Sky said as she then grabbed her cousin's arm and took her into the guest room.
"Hey!" Sam complained.
"That was easy." Spencer smiled before his head was on fire again and Carly and Sammy helped him out in putting it out.
"Dude, what's your damage?" Sam complained to Sky.
"Why did you do that back there?" Sky asked.
"About calling that old hag a messed up woman?" Sam asked back out of confusion.
"No, about you trying to attack her." Sky replied.
"She insulted my family name." Sam defended.
"Your eyes turned red." Sky clarified.
"What about it?" Sam folded her arms. "Maybe I'm in puberty."
"You attacked Megan Parker and that guy, Francis." Sky told her what she heard from Carly and Freddie.
"They were picking on Carly." Sam defended.
"Sam, I think we need to talk." Sky sighed.
"What do you think we're doing right now?" Sam scoffed.
"Sam..." Sky said flatly.
"Fine, fine, what is it?" Sam asked.
"It's about our heritage..." Sky said nervously.
"So, what about it?" Sam asked. "Do I really need to hear about it?"
"Yes." Sky replied seriously.
"Fine..." Sam rolled her eyes. "What is it?"
"You're not exactly a human, Sam." Sky told her cousin.
"You're kidding, right?" Sam laughed. "Oh, man, that's too good, you're killing me!"
"I'm serious." Sky replied.
"Yeah, right, that's a good one," Sam smirked. "Now really, what's up?"
"I'm not kidding..." Sky said as she had a serious look on her face before she then opened her mouth and her fangs popped out.
Sam rolled her eyes before she blinked in surprise.
"These are fangs..." Sky replied.
Sam poked her fangs only to wince slightly as a drop of blood came out. "Whoa..." she muttered in surprise. "Wait, so, I'm a wolf too?"
"Yes, because your mother was bitten a long time ago." Sky revealed.
"By who?" Sam asked.
"A black sheep of my mother's side of the family who is quite evil." Sky explained.
"Evil wolf?" Sam asked. "Well, that explains why my mom's such a-"
"Sam." Sky cut her off.
"Sorry... So, does that mean that Melanie is one too?" Sam asked about her elusive twin sister.
"No, Melanie is fully human." Sky replied.
"Of course..." Sam scoffed. "Melanie's always the odd one out... No wonder Dad liked her best."
Sky patted her cousin on the back.
"So, how come I haven't changed yet?" Sam asked.
"You will, and it will be painful since this is going to be your first time." Sky advised.
"Painful...?" Sam asked. "As painful as Miss Briggs playing the bagpipes?"
"Worse, you'll change during the full moon... And there's one going to be up by tonight." Sky replied.
"Meh, I bet I can handle it no prob." Sam shrugged.
"All right, but don't say that I didn't warn you." Sky cautioned.
"Will I hurt Carly though?" Sam asked. "I don't wanna hurt her."
"I don't think so," Sky comforted. "It's so nice that you really care about your friend enough that you don't want to hurt her."
"Is everything okay in there?" Carly's voice asked after knocking on the door.
"Yeah, we're fine." Sky replied.
"Okay, good," Carly replied back. "We're going to watch the other comedy nominees."
"Hey, cous, do ya mind?" Sam asked Sky.
"Go ahead." Sky allowed.
Sam then nodded and went with Carly to check out the web show competition.
"Wanna join us, Sky?" Carly invited. "Sammy is gonna watch with us too."
"Sure." Sky nodded and then followed after her cousin and her best friend.
