Everyone was outside the ROR fraternity house watching a huge monitor that showed the challengers sneaking around inside.

Johnny and his group were the first to exit. That was no shock to him or anyone else because they were always ahead in the game.

"Thank you! Thank you!" Chet cheered at the fans but the fans had turned from the ROR and focused onto the next team that was trailing not too far behind them.

ROR looked back to see Oozma Kappa getting all of the attention.

Johnny's hands became fists. "HSS had a tour of the place this morning..." Johnny muttered, mostly to himself as he tried to wrap his brain around Oozma Kappa's constant winning streak. "They had the upper hand!" He growled.

"Johnny—" Chet placed a hand onto Johnny's shoulder.

"How could Oozma Kappa still beat them?" Johnny's eye twitched. This joke of a fraternity was becoming a serious nuisance.

"We're still number one." Chet rubbed Johnny's shoulder for a second then turned his attention to Brock as he announced the final scare game event; 'The Scare Simulator'.

Johnny noticed that he was breathing heavily from anger and he quickly smoothed his hair back and popped his collar to seem more presentable in he moved through the crowd toward Oozma Kappa with his ROR brothers close behind him.

Chip was right about one thing; Sullivan wouldn't be there for Mike in the 'Scare Simulator'. They were all on their own this time around and no way was Oozma Kappa going to out-scare his team.

When he came to Mike, he smiled in knowing that the Scare Game's Victory was undeniably theirs. "Enjoy the attention while it lasts, boys. After you lose, no one will remember you." His ROR brothers chuckled at the remark.

"Maybe," Mike said, taking a brave step closer to Johnny. "but when you lose, no one will let you forget it."

Johnny's smile fell. What Mike had said couldn't be closer to the truth. ROR was a staple in this University. They had the highest and most respected reputation. No one would forget their loss in the scare games...and no one would ever forget that sex tape.

All those comforting words given to him earlier were now meaningless.

"Oh," Chet seemed to grasp this as well. "Boy, that is a good point!"

Johnny scowled and smacked Chet in the back of the head, knocking off his hat.

Chet didn't even bother to pick his hat back up as he followed Johnny back into the house with everyone else. "That actually kinda freaks me out, Johnny." He admitted, sticking close to his team.

"Don't worry about it." Chip shrugged. "What makes you think OK has a chance in a one-on-one game with us?"

"Well, they seemed to beat all the other teams pretty easily." Reggie muttered and Javier shoved him.

"I can't believe you are comparing us to the others." Javier said in a strong accent. He saw a flashing light from the answering machine and went over to check the phone messages. "We're the best of the best. The rest are mediocre at best."

Randall seemed to pop out of nowhere and tap Johnny on the arm. Frankly Johnny was perturbed more and more by Randall. He sneaked a lot and he could never tell when the guy was around. "Johnny, someone's here to see you." He pointed behind him and Johnny looked back at the doorway, fully intending to scare off anyone who wanted to congratulate them. He really wasn't in the mood to deal with fans and his charm just wasn't going to work right now.

But it was Kelmor stood with his arm around Nancy.

Johnny had almost forgotten their meeting tonight. If Kelmor came for an answer, he didn't have one. He didn't want to say yes but...he didn't exactly want to say no either.

"What do you want?"

"To talk privately." Kelmor smirked, stepping back out onto the porch.

Chet was following Johnny to the door but stopped when Javier called for him.

"—Chet, the doctor called. He says it's important that you call him back."

Chet paled and exchanged a look with Johnny before heading to the phone nervously.

Johnny wanted to know what was going on with Chet. If the doctor said it was important than it had to have been something serious. Johnny just had to get rid of Kelmor first. "Let's make this quick." He followed Kelmor and Nancy out onto the porch. Chip and Randall were coming out as well but Johnny dismissed them. "I can handle this."


Monsters were still dispersing from the ROR grounds but they were far enough away that he could have a private conversation with Kelmor.

"Does she have to be here?" Johnny scowled at the small HSS girl.

"She's aware of what's going on."

Johnny narrowed his eyes at her but she didn't seem intimidated. "Great job in the hide-n-sneak game tonight." He sneered. "I thought you guys were capable of beating OK."

Nancy blushed at this and looked at Kelmor.

"She's very disappointed about that." he said, tugging her a bit closer.

"What do you want?" Johnny asked Kelmor.

"Tomorrow night I'll be working late with a group in the School of Engineering building. I've been working on a door all semester and I think it would be the perfect one to banish someone in." He pulled a card key out of his pocket.

Johnny stared at the key, stunned.

"It's a gray door. You don't have to use it. Just keep it with you in case you change your mind." He held the key out to Johnny.

Johnny took the key but wasn't sure why...he looked it over then glanced up at the cruel smile on Kelmor's face. It was enough to make Johnny want to hurl the key far off.

Kelmor continued. "I'd say two in the morning is your best bet. No one's around then."

"Johnny."

Johnny quickly tucked the card into his pocket and turned to Chip. "I'm busy." He snarled, hoping that Chip didn't see or hear anything incriminating.

Chip's voice lowered. "I know but this is important."

Johnny doubted that it was more important than this but Kelmor gave him an easy way out.

"That's alright, I was just leaving." Kelmor held out his hand to Johnny. "Good luck tomorrow."

Johnny stared at his hand with disgust. He was pretty sure that Kelmor's 'good luck' was a curse on them. He shook Kelmor's hand, tightening his grip. It pleased him to see Kelmor wince in pain before he pulled his hand away and forced a smile. "See you around."

Johnny waited for Kelmor to leave his porch with Nancy before he turned his attention back to Chip. "What the hell is it now?" By the look on Chip's face, this had to be bad news. Johnny wasn't sure how much more bad news he could handle.

Chip sighed. "It's Chet."
