Blooooo

It was a rather gloomy and rainy day at Foster's…but that didn't stop Mac and Bloo from having fun! The boys headed outside to play in the rain and mud, as they laughed and cheered, throwing mud at each other.

But being the one the hates water, Bella stayed high and dry on the porch.

"You guys are going to catch a cold!" Bella called over the sound of the rain.

"Oh, c'mon, Bella! Just come on out! The mud's great!" Bloo pleaded.

"I don't care if you give me a mud bath, I'm not going out in the rain and getting wet," Bella protested while crossing her arms and holding her head high.

But Bloo was determined to get the fox/peacock out in the rain, whether she liked it or not. So, with an evil grin, he stepped back a couple yards, testing the chain between them, and he grabbed it and suddenly pulled Bella out from the cover of the front porch.

Mac stared down at Bella in shock, knowing this wasn't going to end well for Bloo, who only chuckled evilly as Bella lay motionless and face-first in the mud. But she soon mumbled something into the mud, and Bloo couldn't quite make it out.

"Sorry, what?" Bloo asked while stepping closer.

"YOU'RE IN SO MUCH TROUBLE!" With that, Bella tackled Bloo in the blink of an eye, laughing manically while getting her revenge by pinning Bloo down into the mud.

"Shouldn't a' done that, girly!" Bloo warned with an evil smile, as he took Bella by surprise and threw her into the mud again. But this puddle of mud was much colder than the last one, and even with fur, Bella stood up while shivering from the cold, and the rain didn't help much.

But just as Bloo was laughing at her, his laughter was slowed when he suddenly sneezed. And he wasn't the only one, as Mac suddenly started sneezing too.

The boys finally realized how cold it was outside, so the trio headed inside, and Frankie started a fire for them, as their other friends sat and watched with pity on the couch.

But Frankie soon came back with two blankets, a brown one for Mac, a white one for Bella, and she couldn't find a third blanket, so she took off her jacket and wrapped it around Bloo, as the three of them shivered in front of the fire place.

"I warned you guys, but did you listen? Nooo. You had to ignore me and catch a cold," Bella pointed out with a scowl, and her point was emphasized when Mac started sneezing like crazy.

"Ooh, you feel a but warm, pal," Frankie said with worry when she leaned down and pressed her wrist against Mac's warm forehead.

"Yeah, you don't look so hot," Bloo added.

"I don't feel so…hot either," Mac sniffled.

"C'mon, I'll take ya home," Frankie added softly, and she headed outside with Mac with an umbrella to protect them from the rain, as the others wished him to get well before they got onto the Foster's bus and drove off.

"Guys, the movie's about ta start!" Wilt called from another room, but when Bloo tried to follow them, he stumbled a bit, and Bella had to catch him.

"Jeez, and I thought Mac looked pale. Are you ok?" Bella asked with concern.

"Yeah…yeah, yeah, I'm fine, it's just a little fever," Bloo quickly denied while shaking his head like a dog and managing to walk slowly into the other room, where Wilt and Eduardo were already on the couch with the TV on.

"So, what're we watching?" Bella asked as she and Bloo hopped up onto the couch, still clinging tightly to the white blanket to keep warm.

"A cweathuw feathuw," Wilt replied with a mouthful of popcorn.

"A what?" Bloo questioned.

"A creature feature," Bella simply replied.

"A-a c-creature feature?" Eduardo whimpered in fear.

"It's ok, Ed. It won't be THAT scary," Wilt reassured.

"Yeah, Ed. It's probably just some silly old movie, about some silly old ghost story, in a silly old house, on some silly old hill," Bloo ranted on with a smirk.

"The Curse of the Cannibal Ghosts of the Haunted House on Horror Hill!" the male announcer on the TC suddenly called out when the black and white movie began.

"The only silly part is that you ACTUALLY got that right," Bella pointed out with a quirked brow. But she and the others went quiet when the movie started.

"What a perfect night for a drive," the bad-acting male lead began, as he was taking a woman in the passenger seat out for a drive on a stormy night.

"Wait! What's that up ahead?" the female lead gasped with fright.

"You mean the petunia patch?"

"No! That haunted-looking house on the horrible-looking hill!"

"Oh, that's just the Haunted House of Horror Hill!"

As the movie progressed, Wilt was starting to hog the popcorn with suspense of the plot, Eduardo was trying to cover his eyes to try and prevent any jumpscares, Bella was staring at the TV in disappointment, as it was too cliché in her opinion, and Bloo just leaned on the arm of the couch with a sickly pale look.

At the same time, Frankie had just dropped Mac off at his apartment building, and she was driving alone down the highway back to Foster's. But the drive was becoming a little dicey as the storm started to get worse and fog up the windshield, even with the wipers rapidly wiping back and forth.

And the more Frankie had to lean forward and wipe the fog away with her hand, the more she got angered as it continued to go on. But the third time she had to wipe the window, she gasped in fright when she saw a huge shadow in the headlight. She then screamed and accidentally swerved the bus.

Luckily, she managed to hit the brakes before causing any damage, and Frankie grabbed an umbrella and a flashlight and checked outside so that it wouldn't be filed as a hit-and-run.

"Hello? Hello?! Anyone out there?!" Frankie called while waving the flashlight around, but she grumbled in anger when she didn't see anything, "oh, great. Now you're seeing things, Frankie."

So, the redhead gave up and got back onto the bus…but she failed to check behind the bus, where a menacing hook was caught on the fender.

The movie was starting to get scarier, as the lead actors were screaming, and Wilt and Eduardo were shaking in their boots…if they had any.

But when the screaming stopped, Bloo suddenly groaned and accidentally slouched all the way off the couch.

"Oh, I don't feel good," Bloo moaned while holding his head as his vision got dizzy.

"Yeah, this movie's boring, anyway. C'mon, Bloo," Bella pointed out while helping Bloo up.

"What? Are ya scared?" Wilt mocked.

"Si! Azule and Zorro are big baby scaredy cats! Wah-wah-wah-wah!" Eduardo taunted, both him and Wilt acting as though they weren't scared just a second ago.

"I'm goin' ta bed," Bloo meekly protested.

"Ok. Don't let the bed bugs bite!" Wilt called.

"Si! Don't let the bedbugs—bedbugs?" Eduardo was about to mock some more, but he whimpered at the thought of bedbugs. And Eduardo was jumpscared when Coco suddenly popped up from behind the couch and clucked loudly, causing Eduardo to shriek and jump into Wilt's arms.

Meanwhile, Bella had to tie her blanket around her neck and pull it over her ears like a hood, as she was growing ever so colder and trying to help Bloo up the stairs, who was becoming paler and paler from the cold by the second.

"Man, you look even worse," Bella pointed out while cringing at how pale Bloo was, and he wasn't even blue anymore, more like a light shade of grey. And Bloo made it worse by suddenly removing Frankie's jacket, since it was the closest thing he had, and he power-sneezed into it, covering it in A LOT of snot and mucus.

"I FEEL even worse," Bloo groaned and hobbled to their room, and he immediately pulled the blanket all the way over his head when he got in bed.

"At this rate, I'm TOTALLY going ta get sick," Bella grumbled while hopping up to the foot of the bed, and curling up in the white blanket.

But as the blob and the fox/peacock tried to fall asleep, Wilt, Coco and Eduardo were still watching the cliché horror flick downstairs.

"And you're sure that that's we're dealing with? Cannibal Ghosts?" the male lead asked with shock.

"Oh, I'm sure alright. First, you'll hear the moanin', the terrible moanin'. then you'll see the trail of ectoplasmic goo, the terrible trail of ectoplasmic goo. And then comes the rattlin', the terrible chain rattlin'," an old man of a farmer explained in a creepy way.

But as Wilt and Eduardo once again let the plot scare them, Coco could only laugh at how stupid it was.

"Stop it, Old Man Harland! You're frightening Miss Chambers!" the male lead snapped while pulling the female lead close.

"Oh, do I frighten ya? I'm nothin' compared to a cannibal ghost. They'll scare ya ta death—THEN EAT YER GHOST!"

Just as the old man said that, the thunder and lighting in the movie became worse, and the windows opened for a ghost, which had quite visible puppet strings attached, flew in and scared the characters.

And as if fate suddenly developed a sense of humor, the storm outside suddenly caused all of the windows to open from the harsh wind, and Wilt and Eduardo overreacted by immediately closing the windows and barricading them by nailing wood to them and covering them with chains and locks, and they threw every key to the locks in a key bowl, in which they tossed outside.

And after going through enough fear, Wilt and Eduardo decided it was probably time to head up to bed…but on their way, they were once again scared by Coco dressed in a ghost costume, making them shift speed from creep to sprint to hide in their room.

But even when Wilt hid under the bed, and Eduardo wrapped himself like a burrito in his blankets, they were shaking even more when they heard a loud, ghostly moan echoing in their room…only for the echoing to actually be coming from Bloo, as his cold was getting worse.

And when Bella went to pull the covers off to tell him to stop, she gasped when she saw that Bloo's skin had turned whiter than snow. So, without warning, Bella scooped Bloo onto her back, and she left the room to take him the bathroom.

But after they left the room, Bloo suddenly went limp again and accidentally fell off Bella's back.

"Dude, you're whiter than ME. I feel like I'm looking at my twin," Bella stated while helping Bloo back up on his feet, only for her to immediately back away again when he power-sneezed into his stubby hands.

And with no tissue, Bloo could only wipe his snot along the walls, as he slowly walked towards the bathroom, and Bella gagged at the gross sight while following.

"You don't look so good…well, you're no prize either…what'd you day, buddy?! …whoa, I feel dizzy…" Bloo started mumbling to himself while looking at his reflection in a mirror, and Bella watched with concern as her friend was starting to go a little inside.

"Ya gotta get oxygenated, deep breaths, deep breaths!" With that, Bloo started to inhale deeply, but he snapped at his reflection again.

"Not through your mouth, mouth breather, through your nose! …But I ain't got no nose…sure ya do!"

"Dude, snap out of it! You're getting delirious!" Bella snapped and suddenly slapped Bloo across the face to get him to focus again.

Frankie had finally arrived back at the house, as she was eager to get out of the horrible weather. But when she ran down the sidewalk, a loud crack of thunder and bright flash of lighting took Frankie by complete surprise, and causing her to fall back into the mud out of fear.

And when she realized she dropped her keys, she reached into the mud…only to pull out a whole clump of mud-covered keys, the same keys in which Wilt and Eduardo threw out.

So, she groaned and gathered all the keys she could find, since she couldn't tell which was hers anymore, and she headed up to the door to unlock it.

"Ugh, come on," Frankie grumbled while going through nearly every key. But matters got worse when she was halfway through trying the keys, and she swore she heard a noise behind her, but there was nothing there.

So, with her shoulders a little tensed, Frankie turned back around to try and unlock the front door, but she nearly jumped out of her skin when she heard another mysterious noise. And so she frantically began to go through the keys, begging them to finally unlock the door.

Meanwhile, after they heard the moaning stop, Eduardo and Wilt got out of bed, and they were shocked to find that Bloo and Bella were nowhere to be seen.

"The Cannonballs eat them," Eduardo whimpered with realization.

"The what?" Wilt questioned while examining the bottom bunk, the only evidence left was Bloo's snot.

"The Cannonballs! The Cannonball Ghosts!"

"You mean 'cannibal'?"

"Si. That's what I said: the Cannonball Ghosts ATE them."

"Don't say that, don't say that!"

"It's true. They scared in bed, then their ghosts eaten!"

Suddenly, the same moaning from earlier began to fill the air, making the red beanpole and the purple monster quiver.

"The moaning. The terrible moaning," Eduardo whimpered as they walked out into the hall, and they froze in their tracks when they saw a trail of green ooz on the wall(which we all know it just more of Bloo's mucus, but they don't know that).

"The trail of goo…th-the terrible trail of goo," Eduardo whimpered once more, his voice becoming smaller with fear. And their fear level was raised even higher when the moaning not only continued, but an eerie white cloud flowed out of the bathroom down the hall.

But as it turns out, the creepy cloud was merely steam, as Bloo had turned on the humidifier in the bathroom to clear his sinuses…but it wasn't helping.

"I thought steam was supposed ta UN-stuff me," Bloo groaned with his sinuses somehow even more clogged.

"Whatever the case…phew…we gotta get some air in here…help me open this," Bella huffed while trying not to get too hot from the steam, and she noticed the chained and boarded up window in the bathroom.

And as they pulled on the chains, it made a loud rattling, terrifying Wilt and Eduardo outside.

"The rattling, the terrible rattling!" Eduardo screamed, and he screamed louder when two shadowy figures burst out of the bathroom, trying free themselves of the chains wrapped tightly around them.

"CANNIBAL GHOSTS!" Wilt cried while jumping up in fear, accidentally smashing his head through the ceiling in the process. And Eduardo just screamed and took off while smashing through every wall and leaving a hole shaped like himself, like some cartoon character.

But after they panicked, and the two shadowy figures, which were only Bloo and Bella, were busy getting the chains off, Coco suddenly came running through the same hall with her ghost costume still on.

And she immediately froze at the sight of Bloo and Bella. Given Bloo's shape, he looked exactly like a ghost with his snow white skin, and with the white blanket covering her body and ears, Bella practically looked like a ghost too. So, the crazy bird mash-up clucked in terror and laid a few eggs before ditching her costume and sprinting away.

"Ugh, I don't need this. One chain's already got me fixed with an ill ignoramus," Bella growled in annoyance when she shook the chains off.

"Yeah…hey!" Bloo agreed while getting the rest of the chains off himself too, but he wasn't happy when he heard the last part.

Meanwhile, Eduardo's screaming rampage soon came ton an end when he suddenly hit a wall that was actually an imaginary friend, and he sent the purple monster flying back as if running into a mattress.

"Hey, what where you're goin', pal!" the wall angrily shouted, after rudely being awoken. But as Eduardo was literally flying backwards through the holes he created in the first place, Wilt was trying to lull the imaginary friends he accidentally woke up when he got his head stuck in the floor of their room.

"Everything's alright, really. Go on back ta bed. There's definitely NOT a-CANIIBAAAL…GHOOOOST!" Wilt began softly, but his soft voice and smile were soon replaced with a strain and a drown when he felt something really heavy grab his legs and pull.

Turns out, that heavy object was Eduardo after stopping his backwards flying by grabbing Wilt. But with the added weight, Wilt's head finally got unstuck, as they fell back onto the floor.

And when the dust cleared, they gasped in fright when they saw Bloo and Bella staring at them with confused expressions, but because of the movie, they didn't know it was just their friends. No, they actually believed that they were actually Cannibal Ghosts, just like the ones from the movie.

And as Wilt froze with fear, Eduardo had to pick him up and carry him, as he once again sprinted while screaming in terror.

…

"I think you scared them," Bella pointed out with surprise.

"I scared them? No, YOU di—AH…AH…ACHOO!" Bloo tried to protested, but he was interrupted with a big sneeze.

"Yeah, I scared them," Bella added sarcastically while rolling her eyes.

Poor Frankie was still stuck outside in the rain while trying to find the right key, but she soon found the right one when the last one finally unlocked the door.

"Thank you! Frankie cried out, but when she turned the knob and pushed, the door never opened. And after fighting to open the door, she started banging her fists, hoping someone would hear her and let her in.

But all she got was no answer, as everyone was either asleep, or hiding in a closet…'someone' as in Wilt, Coco and Eduardo, as they hid in a hall closet to avoid the Cannibal Ghosts.

Though, her violent knocking DID wake one person, and that was Mr. Herriman, as he hopped out to search for the source of the noise in his pjs and mere candle light.

And as Mr. Herriman hopped through the halls, his loud thumping suddenly struck fear into their hearts.

"Coco co co?" Coco clucked nervously.

"I don't know what it is," Wilt quietly replied.

"It's the beating of his dead heart. He going to eat our ghosts, he going to eat our ghosts," Eduardo whimpered with realization.

"But we're not ghosts, Ed."

"Not yet. He going to scare us into ghosts, THEN eat us."

"Coco coco co! Coco co co coco!"

"Shhhh!" Wilt immediately shushed them when he heard the thumping grow closer. But when Herriman stopped and looked around outside the closet and didn't find anything, he hopped away to continue to search for the other noise.

"Coco co," Coco clucked in relief.

"That WAS close," Wilt agreed.

"Wiiiiiiilt…Cooocoooo…Eduardooooo? Wheeeeerrre are yooooouuu?"

The sudden ghostly voice in the halls immediately made the three said imaginary friends shiver and quake when they swore it could only be a ghost calling their name…but it was only a sickly Bloo, as he and Bella was searching for them in the same hall.

"AAAAAHHH! I GETTING OUT OF THIS HOUSE!" Eduardo screamed when he suddenly burst out of the closet, and he crushed both Bella and Bloo behind it.

"Ed, no, wait!" Wilt called after him as he and Coco chased after the purple monster friend.

And after they left, they failed to notice Bella and Bloo deeply pushed into the wall, Bloo's back to the wall and Bella's back to Bloo, and they fell on top of each other when the door swung the other way.

"How many times…do I have ta tell you…ta get off me?" Bella growled while staggering to stand back up from the pain, and it didn't help that Bloo added some more weight.

Meanwhile, Eduardo ran to the other end of the hall, and even attempted to break off the chains and wood barricading the window. But he stopped when he saw the Foster's bus outside.

"Look, look! The bus is obsesionada! The bus is obsesionada!" Edaurdo frantically pointed out when he saw how dented the bus looked, and when he grabbed something to wipe his tears, which was Frankie's jacket, he panicked again when he saw green slime all over it, "Frankie's jacket is obsesionada! Frankie's sweater is obsesionada!"

"Oh, no! you don't think-?" Wilt was about to ask with realization, but he was interrupted by a loud, shrill scream coming from outside.

Little did Wilt know that it was just Frankie, as she was losing her mind, and all because the front door wouldn't open.

"Hi, I'm a stupid, lazy door! I'm so stupid and lazy…I won't even open up! ARGH!" Frankie rambled on angrily while pulling with all of her weight on the door, but nothing she did would open it.

But as she pulled again, she gasped in fright when she heard yet another mysterious noise out in the rain.

"H-hello?" Frankie meekly called out, but got nothing but a flash of lighting and crack of thunder in response, "I've GOT to find a way inside."

Meanwhile, Wilt was pacing back and forth, confirming that they needed to put an end to these ghosts.

"We need ta stop those ghosts…but how?"

"Coco," Coco suggested while picking up a nearby phone.

"Who're you gonna call?"

"Co coco!"

"They've been outta business for years. If we're gonna save our friends from these phantoms, we're gonna have ta do it ourselves. Now, think, how did they stop the ghosts in the movie?"

"A potato sack!" Eduardo piped up and grabbed out an empty potato sack.

"A potato sack?"

"Co co coco co?"

"Si, a potato sack."

"Um, why do you have a potato sack?"

"I like potatoes."

"Ok…I don't know what movie YOU were watchin'."

"Coco co coco co co coco!"

"They used an Atomic Suck-U-Lator! Of course!" Wilt cheered at Coco's idea, but he frowned when he realized something, "but where are we gonna find an Atomic Suck-U-Lator at this time of night?"

"Coco!" Coco happily clucked when she laid a pink egg, and the boys both immediately smiled.

"Way ta go, Coco," Wilt said with a smile and opened the egg.

"Si! Gracias!" Eduardo added.

"We'll catch those ghosts in no time with the power of this Atomic—vacuum cleaner?" Wilt began with excitement, but when he opened the egg, he found that it was just an ordinary cylinder vacuum cleaner with a long tube.

"Coco," Coco confirmed. So, with no other choice, they started their ghost hunting throughout the rest of the halls after plugging in the vacuum cleaner.

"Now, we've gotta be REAL quiet so the ghosts won't know we're comin', so no getting spooked or all yelly. Ok?" Wilt demanded, and Coco and Eduardo soon agreed.

But after a few minutes of searching, Eduarod thought to chek behind him…and he nearly screamed again when he saw two faint, white ghostly figures many yards behind him. But since he promised to keep quiet, he couldn't speak to alert Coco or Wilt, so he started frantically tapping their shoulders.

"Quit it, Eduardo," Wilt hissed, but Eduardo wouldn't stop, so he finally turned and glared at him, "if you don't stop then you better have ta tell me…THAT THE GHOSTS ARE RIGHT BEHIND YOU!"

With that, they ran down the hall to capture the ghosts, but they didn't know that it was, once again, just Bloo and Bella. And they started backing away when they looked behind themselves and didn't see anything.

"Are they referring ta US?" Bloo asked with shock.

"Should we stick around ta find out?!" Bella sarcastically argued, and she and Bloo wasted no time in turning tail and fleeing in the other direction.

But Wilt, Coco and Eduardo cut it close a few times when they nearly caught them while chasing them through numerous halls. And unfortunately, Bloo and Bella were cornered when the hall came to a balcony over the foyer, and it was a LONG way down.

"We have you now! Hit it, Eduardo!" Wilt demanded while aiming the end of the vacuum tube at them. But when Eduardo flipped the switch, he accidentally set it to 'blow', which somehow literally blew both Bella and Bloo off the balcony, and they landed on the chandelier.

"No, Ed, not blowing! The other way, the other way!" Wilt corrected in a panic.

"Other way?" Eduardo questioned, and he looked at the switch and realized that he had in fact set it to 'blow'. So, with another simple flip, he then set it to 'suck'.

"Yeah, yeah! That's really sucking!" Wilt cheered.

"There's no pleasing him," Eduardo sadly sighed. But when the ghosts(Bloo and Bella)trapped up on the chandelier and out of reach, Wilt and the others headed downstairs to get underneath them with the vacuum, as they held on for dear life to avoid the long, and most likely fatal, drop.

But Bloo had it worse, as he was hanging off the little crystal prisms, and Bella was entangled in the arms. But it soon became even worse for them both when Bella accidentally slipped through the arms of the chandelier, and Bloo accidentally lost his grip on the prisms.

Luckily, though, they were ironically saved by their orange chain when it got caught on one of the arms, and they were swinging back and forth high up in the air.

"There's no escape now, you—Bloo?! Bella?! YOU'RE the ghosts?!" Wilt shouted when he and the others ran into the foyer, but they all froze in shock when they saw the chain, meaning they definitely weren't ghosts.

"Ghosts? Ghosts?! Do I look like a ghost ta you?!" Bella snapped.

"Um…yeah, actually, you do. Both of you," Wilt sheepishly replied. But that was also when the vacuum suddenly turned off, even though Eduardo didn't flip the switch.

"What is the meaning of this?!" Mr. Herriman scolded as he hopped into the foyer, holding the other end of the vacuum's chord, which explains why it just went off.

"They thought we were ghosts," Bella replied while glaring down at her friends and crossing her arms in disappointment.

"Ghosts? Ha! Preposterous! There are no such things as-!" Mr. Herriman began with a laugh, but he was suddenly cut off by the screeching of tires and bright lights shining through the windows, as Frankie drove the Foster's bus through the front door in desperation, kicking up a lot of dust and ruble and leaving a huge hole in the front of the house.

"Monster…monster…monster…GHOSTS!" Frankie mumbled like a crazy person, but she screamed when she saw the others covered in ruble and mistaking them for actual ghosts, and she literally fainted afterwards.

But after she fainted, the bus suddenly started moving forward, and the others gasped in fright when they saw that the bus was moving because of the same giant shadow that had been chasing Frankie, as he pushed the vehicle from behind.

"I've been trying to get my hands on you ALL DAY!" the shadow exclaimed with he grabbed his hook from the bus' fender and reattached it to his missing hand, but his loud voice and menacing figure made the others faint.

But it wasn't until after they fainted that the mystery man popped his head out of his thick rubber rain coat, revealing a friendly yellow head with crazy red hair, a big green nose and a big smile.

"I hear you guys take in imaginary friends!" the friend added in a much higher and happier voice after clearing his throat.

"We sure do!" Bloo called, continuing to hang from the chain and chandelier with Bella. But even with their friendly smiles, their ghostly appearances scared the new friend away.

"WHOOOAAA, GHOOOOSTS!" he screamed and immediately ran out the door.

…

"Look, you scared another…another…ACHOO!" Bella tried to rub it in again, but, as if by the mysterious and slow ways of Karma, was cut off by a sneeze.

"Ha! Who's the ill ignoramus now?" Bloo mocked with an evil grin.

Sorry if you were kinda hoping for the EXACT same ending from the original episode. With that being said, I must remind you all that the only thing I own here is my OC, for Foster's Home belongs to Craig McCracken.

But this concludes season one of Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, so it's onto season two! Whoo, I'm excited!

Until the next chapter, I'm TRikiD, bye-bye!
