Ah, Lunch time in Casper High, unlike Bellwood you can sit wherever you want! Yesterday I sat alone on the roof, I didn't like it. Today I'm going to annoy the hell out of Kevin!

As I walked happily into the cafeteria I stopped and paused. There was no smell of rotting meat, of cooking hamburger patties, of the meatloaf that no one eats because it sent the last kid to the emergency room just by the scent. No it was replaced with the scent of mowed grass, of that horrible flimsy leaf that should've been thrown out with the rest of the garbage.

Not that I don't eat vegetables, but replacing meat with vegetables completely? THAT'S INSANE!

I ran to the lunch lady who was on duty at the moment, "Where's the meat?"

"What meat? The menus been completely replaced to Ultra recyclo-vegetarian style foods."

My eyes grew in shock and I stomped over to Kevin, who was still in the hall. I looked up at him, "I need you to hunt down the people who thought changing the menu was a good idea."

"What do you mean?" He walked in and saw the banner and paused. "WHO THE HELL THOUGHT THAT WAS A GOOD IDEA?" he huffed and punched the wall, "If I don't get some meat I might hurt someone…"

Dash and Kwan decided to join, "Whoa dude? You alright? Man that's some punch."

Kevin grabbed Dash by the shoulders, "I. Need. Meat!" He threw Dash aside and stomped away to go hunting.

Dash looked at me in fear, "Your boyfriend is scary!"

I glared, "Not my boyfriend."

I sat next to Danny and his friends. "So how are you taking the menu change Jen?" Sam asked me with confidence.

I stared at the goth, "Are you kidding? This sucks! Most of the stamina I need for a NORMAL day takes at least the amount of protein steaks can give me! If I don't get some type of meat-based protein, I'll go into shock!" Her eyes widened.

"There you go Sam, bad idea number 1 when living with my cousins. They are omnivores like normal people... Sort of." Danny stabbed the grass growing on his bread, then motioned to his two friends. "Unlike you two."

Sam had no problem eating her 'food' while Tucker was gone in a minute. I sighed and looked around for Ben or Gwen. "I wonder if they'll let Kevin go to Mr. Smoothie. I'm craving a bacon smoothie… And I don't even like that flavor."

Danny looked at me and smirked, "I heard there is a teacher's lunch room where they have nothing but meat, wanna sneak some out for these poor kids?"

Before I could answer both me and Danny had a wisp of blue and red mist appear from between our lips. I groaned, "Better not be Box Ghost." A giant monster of meat products emerged from the kitchen. I looked at Tucker, "This might be more your specialty then ours."

"Haha, we're all laughing."

Me and Danny dove under the table and went Ghost. I flew into the kitchen expecting some horrible monstrous ghost instead, I saw a sweet looking lunch lady instead.

"Oh hello, children, Cookie?" she said.

"Can I have that with a steak?" I asked as my stomach growled. Sam and Tucker nodded their heads slowly.

"NO!" the meat products started to gather around her almost like a shield.

"Oh god, all that meat~" I whined and fell over holding my stomach.

"WHO CHANGED THE MENU?"

We all pointed at Sam. The Lunch Lady screamed and began opening fire on Sam. Danny and I began to do the same in ecto-blasts. She screamed and turned intangible and floated through the floor. I was still on the ground holding my stomach. "N-need. Meat."

Mr. Lancer walked in and saw us, Danny, Sam and Tucker were forced to clean the mess while I hung out in the infirmary.

I pulled out a book I found in the library and curled up to try and subdue the growling. I groaned and looked at the cover, 'Halfas are Nothing to Fear' I opened it and saw a picture of this Vlad Plasmius. He had black hair shaped to resemble horns with a white stripe going down the middle. His grin was proud and malicious, with some crazy canines. Other then the fact it said he's about forty or so, he's hot, he looks like an evil villain sure, but that never stopped Kevin from joining our little team.

I was also happy to see that this was a story instead of just a textbook.

I was never aware of the existence of ghosts, until I was nine years old when my parents had left me alone for the first time. I was just sitting in my room, completely consumed by a book, when a small ghost floated through it. It drew my attention away from my book. I noticed it was too small to do any damage to anything, but it could speak.

"Is this where you live?" it asked.

"Yes."

"Can I live here too?" it seemed so weak and helpless. I couldn't help but agree to let it. It seemed joyful to this fact, that my child mind could never let something as small as this just Will o' wisp have nowhere to go. I knew what it was though, so I agreed that when my parents were home, it was to hide in my closet or under my bed. But when my parents were gone it could roam freely. It was happy with my proposition and we had practiced until my parents came home that night.

Though after about two months of hiding the creature-

I was interrupted from my reading when Tucker came in with a full stomach and a content look. I'd say that he helped get rid of the meat monster.

He laid on the bed next to me and looked at me happily, "Beef Jerky?"

I smiled and grabbed it he laughed as I tried to take a bite out of it.

At now sat in my bedroom, already unpacked, on my bed solving the math problems that were on my homework. Kevin opened the door to my room and came to sit next to me. He shoved the same paper into my face.

"How do you do this?" he said more as a statement then a question.

I sighed and straightened myself. "Try listening in class."

"Hey, I try. Sorta. I've never really had to before." His attention turned to a will o' wisp nearby, "What's that?"

I looked at it as well, "A will o' wisp. It's the weakest form of ghost. I read something about them in a book but I couldn't finish the bit where it was involved, and I forgot it at school, so I'm conducting an experiment. I agreed to let it live with me until I can either find out what happened, or I get certain results. You needed help with homework right?"

Kevin's eyes began to examine my pajamas, "Wow, never took you for a tank top and sweatpants kinda girl." He smirked as I stood up to try and occupy the ghost with a toy I had. I glared at him, used to his flirt-reflex, but still not willing to let stuff like that slide.

"What can I say, all my boxers are in the wash and I'm not willing to steal Ben's."

"If anyone dares to call you a girly-girl, I'll punch them in the mouth."

"I seem to remember you calling me that when we first met."

Jen had her short hair in pig-tails and was searching the arcades around the area for her brother. She was just about to give up when she heard a voice from one of the fighting games.

"Ben, there you are! What was happening back there? I couldn't follow past Gwen's complaining." She said as she ran to her brother.

"Aw, Jen, did you have to come after me?" Ben whined.

Jen glared at her brother and was about to reach in her bag for something to hit him with. "Hey, Ben, who's the girly? Your girlfriend? If so," Kevin looked Jen over with a thoughtful look, "You got better taste then I thought."

"I'm not his girlfriend, I'm-"

"My little sister. Why are you flirting with her anyway?" Ben glared at Kevin.

"Besides, what's with the girly comment?" Jen added to her brother's glare.

"You're obviously a girly-girl. I mean pig tails, really?"

Jen pulled out a fireman's axe and looked at the older boy, "You dare say that again and I will lop your head off and feed it to the Vulpimancers."

Kevin tried to ignore his curiosity on where the hell that came from and took back his comment.

"Ah good times… I guess." Kevin said.

"Good times, ha, yeah right, I pushed you in front of a passenger train not 2 hours after meeting you, if that's not hate, what is?"

"You got a point."

"And you continued to hunt me and my brother down until we had plunged you into the Null Void."

"Ok, I get it we were both total jerks to each other!" Kevin exclaimed angrily.

"Then there's the matter when we finally met again after four years, we caught you in the middle of a deal and you got pissed and tried to kill us."

"I get it! Now shut it and help me with this stupid assignment!" Kevin growled as I turned to look at him with a smirk.
