Vince busted into Naboo's room. Naboo cried out and fell back in his chair. "Didn't I tell you to knock?" Naboo exclaimed.

"Naboo we gotta help Howard he's in danger!" Vince cried out hysterically.

"Since when is there something not wrong with him?" Naboo shook his head.

"Naboo really, he needs our help!" Vince placed his hands together in prayer.

"I'm guessing it's mostly my help right? Alright then what is it?"

"Ok so remember Howard's girlfriend? She's not even human she's something evil like you said before! Believe me, just now I saw her! Her eyes were glowing red like Christmas lights and she spoke to me in this demonic voice about taking Howard's soul and something about her sisters having an up rise and…"

"Woah, woah, woah," Naboo held his hand up. "She said something about sisters?"

"Yes! Yes! And a dark kingdom and some other things like that Stephen King movie Cujo!"

"That was about a rabid St. Bernard Vince…"

"Well you know what I mean! Scary as all hell!"

"Alright, alright, you don't have to prove yourself!" Naboo started shoving items into a bag. "Now we have to go find Howard or else it won't be just his life on the line."

Meanwhile, it was close to the evening as Howard was walking with Emma. "Well as I was saying," Howard said. "I'm really sorry about last night. Perhaps I got a little too excited and I might've done something wrong. I don't really…"

"I know, I know. You don't have any sexual experiences whatsoever. You told me," she said.

"I… I did? But I never told you anything of the sort…" Howard's face slowly turned scarlet.

"You didn't? Oh… my mistake…" she shifted her eyes suspiciously.

"How um… would you know about… that?" Howard asked shyly. "I won't get angry if you tell me in fact it'll be Vince that I'll be angry with if it was him who told you, then again I can't blame a girl for being curious…"

"I didn't ask your brain-dead monkey of a friend! I read your… horoscope?" Emma had a queer smile on her face.

"Hey when it comes to brightness, Vince is possibly a 40 watt bulb, but don't talk about him like that. And since when are horoscopes that personal?"

"Just forget it alright? It doesn't matter," she said. "It won't matter for much longer," she muttered with a sly grin while latching her arm on his.

"Um… right," He chuckled nervously. "So where are we going Emma?"

"Somewhere exciting my love," she said.

"What's so exciting about a dark alleyway?" Howard winced as he scanned his surroundings.

"You'll see soon enough," Emma pulled on his arm, urging him to move forward.

"But those places aren't very safe at night. Someone could attack us."

"Oh don't be silly. That'll be the least of your worries."

"Emma you're acting strange. Why don't we go somewhere nicer like the museum or maybe… what on earth is that?" Howard nearly shrieked. He pointed at what appeared to be a pentagram drawn on the sidewalk.

"Um… fancy a game of hopscotch?" Emma asked, smiling crookedly.

"Wait a minute… isn't hopscotch drawn with squares and rectangles?" Howard squirmed, trying to escape her grasp.

"It's Chinese hopscotch," she said. She pulled on his arm.

"I… I have to go… I think I left a uh... pot roast in the oven…" Howard tried to break free from her arms but she kept latching onto him.

"Hopscotch Howard! C'mon let's play hopscotch!" she cried out excitedly, pulling him towards the pentagram.

"No, no, no please! No!" Howard whimpered.

"Hopscotch!" Emma shouted.

"No!" he cried out.

"Hopscotch!" she shrieked furiously.

"Noooooooooooo!" Howard cried.

" Hopscoooooooooooooootch!" her voice boomed and her eyes glowed red.
