"Hey, how was your trip back to LA." Ethan asked his cousin, wrapping his arms around her petite frame.

She shrugged and responded wrapping her arms around him as well, "It was okay. Caught a few monsters here and there. No big deal." Once they released each other, she continued, "Jean and Jackson say Hi."

Ethan nodded, "Tell them I said Hi back."

"So Veronica...how was your first cheer meet?" Serena asked, smirking as Ethan paled.

He asked panicked, "Who told you that?"

She answered, collapsing on his bed, "Benny did."

Rolling his eyes, Ethan mumble slightly amused, "Of course he did."

Confused, Serena asked sitting up, "What's that suppose to mean."

"Nothing," Ethan told her, raising his hands up in surrender. She raised an eyebrow at him but said nothing afterwards.

"Hey Serena." Benny greeted as he met Serena at her locker.

Serena smiled and greeted back, "Hey Benny."

Leaning against the locker besides her's, he asked, "So how was Cali?"

"Great. Why do you ask?" Serena asked back, closing her locker.

"I just needed an excuse to break the ice." Benny began, "So are you doing anything this weekend?"

Shaking her head, Serena answered, "Nope. I'm free."

Smiling, Benny said excitedly, "That's great. So I was wondering if-"

"Emergency." Ethan cut Benny off, making him groan in annoyance.

Spinning around to face her cousin, Serena asked, "Teenage or Supernatural?"

"Supernatural."

Turning back around, Serena gave Benny a sympathetic look, "Later?"

Benny plastered on a fake smile, "Sure. It wasn't that important anyways."

"Hey Ethan, I got-" Serena began before a beeping noise cut her off suddenly.

Ethan spun his chair around to face her and asked, "What's up with your bracelet?"

She answered, "I'm getting serious monster ratings. I think there might be a monster in your room."

Ethan waited a few seconds before saying, "He prefers the term ghost and yes there is."

Smiling, Serena said, "Cool. I've always wanted to be some sort of ghost whisper. So why won't this one cross over?"

"He wants me to win a trophy for sports." Ethan answered before the door opened, revealing Benny.

Ethan greeted, "Hey Benny. Any luck?"

Benny nodded, handing Serena his camera, "Oh, yeah. Here, take this. We are gonna get the first ever ghost-splosion captured on camera. Where is he?"

Ethan shrugged and pointed over near the curtains, "Uh, he's right there."

Opening the camera, Serena leaned on one arm as the other recorded Benny lazily.

Standing next to the bookcase, Benny began to chant, "Galga deselphador zek recantor...zoolin maphrak!"

Suddenly, things from Ethan's top shelf began falling on Benny's head as he shrieked, "That is so not cool, ghost dude!"

Ethan panicked, "These are mint in-box!"

Sighing, Serena told them, "Look, I really wish I could help you but its against monster hunting rules to deal with a ghost. It's a sensitives job to guide them into the light which I'm not."

Following Serena out the door, Benny told Ethan, "I'm sorry, man. I really thought it would work. Maybe you should just give this psycho what he wants."

"No. Forget it. It's not gonna happen."

"Well then," Began Serena, "I wish you the best of luck."

"Serena, what happened to you? You look like you took a shortcut through the woods." Benny told her as she arrived at the school's gym.

She rolled her eyes, "That's because I did. I was in the middle of finally capturing a monster in two days when suddenly I get a call from my cousins best friend telling me that he's in a grudge match with Kurt 'The Hurt' Lochner. By the way-" Turning around to see Ethan slightly limping over to them after Kurt dropped him off, she asks in disbelief holding the urge to slap him upside the head, "What were you thinking Ethan? Are you trying to get yourself killed?"

Pulling her back, Benny told her, "Relax Serena. He's been beaten up enough by Kurt." Looking back at Ethan he sympathetically cheered, as Serena threw up her hands in annoyance, "Take a seat, dude. You survived a whole round without him breaking your spine in half. Nice! Sorry, dude, but for a guy in agony, you make some hilarious faces."

"Ethan, are you insane?!" Sarah shrieked, "You don't know what you're up against. This guy is unstoppable."

Ethan scoffed, "I guess that's why you like him."

'Well that explains a lot.' Serena thought smugly, crossing her arms.

"What? I don't like him." Sarah defended.

Rolling his eyes, Ethan resorted, "Come on. I saw you watching him, talking, - laughing, kanoodling."

Benny nodded, "Mad kanoodling."

Confused, Sarah asked, "Noodle what? Look, I thought Erica turned him into a vampire, so I was watching him. I even checked his neck for bit marks-which was hard since he's so ticklish-but I do not like him."

"Are we in the second round?" Serena asked Benny.

He answered, "Yep."

"Does he have any points?"

"Nope."

"Okay Ethan," Serena called catching his attention, "You can't win by points anymore. You're gonna have to pin him to win."

His eyes widened to the size of dinner plates, "I have to pin him?"

"How about some magic?" Benny suggested, "Let's see how well he wrestles with worms in his ears, huh?"

We waited for a few seconds before Ethan said, "No magic. We can't cheat."

Panicked, Sarah told him hurriedly, "Then think of something. Everybody has a weakness, right? Just find it and exploit it."

In an instant, Ethan was up on his own two feet again and shouting out in pain. Everyone winced but didn't help him. How could they? They couldn't see it or do anything about it.

Ethan pleaded, "Just please stop. Leave me alone."

"Looks like he's practicing new ways to beg for mercy. Smart!"

"It's no use. I can't win. I've never won a fight. Ever."

That's when Serena resorted, "Hey that's not true. Remember that time in second grade when Benny took your Pokemon lunchbox and you practically beat him up."

Benny sighed wistfully, "I almost cried."

That's when Ethan's face lit up like a Christmas tree, "Grade two That gives me an idea.!Thanks, Serena."

That's when the whistle was blown and Ethan ran into the ring with a new air of confidence. Long story short, he managed to pin the infamous Kurt 'The Hurt' Lochner.

"Way to go, bro!" Benny cheered as Ethan and his cousin hugged for a few seconds before saying suddenly to what appeared thin air, "Oh, yeah. I won the trophy. Time to move on, Coach. A deal's a deal."

After a few moments of silence, Ethan's eyes widened as he told them, "He's backing out of our deal."

"What? He can't. A supernatural pact is binding in all dimensions!" Benny exclaimed unsurely.

"What? What is it?" Ethan asked suddenly. Suddenly a breeze could be felt amongst them and they knew that he was gone.

"Hey, you know what? I will not be beaten by a geek!" Kurt yelled ripping his uniform and running towards them before Sarah stuck out her arm and before they knew it, he collapsed on the ground from impact.

Sarah smirked, "Update You got beaten by a geek AND a girl. Go get yourself a new shirt."

Joking, Ethan told her, "Thanks, but I could have taken him." They all gave him a look beforen he continued, "So, uh about Saturday night...?"

Pulling on her arm, Benny told Serena, "Come on Ser. Let's give these two some privacy."

"-so then he was like 'Doctor Who?'" Benny joked as Serena laughed lightly.

"Oh, because of the show. I get it." She clarified before asking, "So about this weekend...wanna come over and watch a movie? Ethan got this new Slasher film and he invited Sarah to watch which screams disaster so..."

Smirking, Benny said, "Your not a fan of the Slasher series are you?"

Serena rolled her eyes, "Of course I'm not. That movie is so inaccurate it kills me."

"Fine, but you owe me."

Smiling, she shook his outstretched hand and said, "Deal."
