"Who was that person?!" Penn wondered.

"Mm-mm..." Teller shrugged.

"I dunno, but we're gonna find out." Maxwell said. "No matter what it takes."

Cindy gripped her collar and gulped. "Yeah."

"Monarch, give me your binoculars." Penn demanded.

"It's Maxwell." Maxwell corrected.

"Whatever." Penn said.

Maxwell sighed and handed his binoculars to the large man.

Penn took the binoculars and looked through them, looking up to the roof. "I bet it's Batman."

"Batman lives over at Gotham City, remember?" Teller reminded.

"Then who else cold it be?" Penn asked.

"Maybe a new hero?" Cindy shrugged.

"Let's go find out!" Penn grinned.

"Yeah!" Maxwell agreed.

"Uh, maybe we should split up..." Cindy suggested.

"No, let's stick together." Penn said.

"Stick together?" Cindy asked.

Maxwell glanced at her.

Cindy looked back nervously, then looked back over. "Sounds good to me!"

"Oh, Cindy." Maxwell shook his head.

Cindy sighed.

"Come on, let's go..." Teller walked with Penn ahead of them.

Cindy and Maxwell followed.

"Stay close, Cindy and Mario." Penn warned.

"Maxwell." Maxwell corrected.

"Whatever, follow me." Penn replied.

"This isn't gonna hurt, is it?" Cindy asked.

"Don't worry, as long as you guys are here, I'll be fine." Penn smiled.

"Gee, we feel totally safe." Teller muttered sarcastically.

"Yeah, seriously." Maxwell added, rolling his eyes.

"Quiet, both of you!" Penn scolded.

Cindy took a shaky breath. "So nerve wrecking... It can't get any worse..."

"Cindy, stop jinxing us!" Penn scolded.

"Sorry..." Cindy covered her mouth nervously.

"And just for that, you're gonna be our look-out." Penn glared.

"Whaaa...?" Cindy's eyes widened.

"Unless you're chicken." Penn taunted.

"I-I'm not chicken..." Cindy glared.

"Bawk, bawk, chicken girl!" Penn teased.

"I'm not a chicken!" Cindy pouted.

"Bawk, bawk, bawk!" Penn continued to cluck.

"Quit it!" Cindy whined. "I'll do it!"

"Great!" Penn laughed, then looked firm. "Quit whining and go be look-out."

Cindy let out a long-suffering sigh, then went further out for them and looked around. "H-Hello, is someone there...?" she asked nervously.

"There she goes..." Penn sighed as he took off his glasses and wiped a tear from his eye. "A brave little girl... I really loved her, Teller, I really did..."

"Wait until you get a lawsuit from her parents." Teller scoffed.

"Oh, that's fine," Penn reached into his pocket and took out a paper, opening it up. "I had her sign this liability waiver... Heh... I told her it was a permission slip for joining a club at school."

Teller shook his head in disbelief.

"Is someone there?!" Cindy called out.

There was a clanging can.

Cindy let out a small scream, then looked over to see a small cat. "Oh... It's just a kitty... A frightening harmless kitty... There's nothing around here, I must be imaging things."

There was then low snarling heard.

"H-H-Hello?" CIndy shivered with widened eyes. "Who's there?"

There was a loud squishy noise heard, followed by chewing and gulping. Cindy bit her nails nervously as her knees shook. Bubba came into the light as he was biting into some meat.

"Uncle Bubba, is that you?" Cindy asked.

"Hey, punk..." Bubba said, then let out a noisy burp. "Ah, that was a good one... What're you doing out here?"

"Uhh... Have you seen anything weird tonight?" Cindy asked.

"I saw something on the roof." Bubba told her.

"Cindy, Cindy, we just saw it!" Penn called out.

"What?!" Cindy turned her head.

Bubba smirked as he then poured salt on her head while she wasn't paying attention.

"What is it, Penn?!" Cindy called out.

"We just saw something, come on!" Penn told her.

"Coming!" Cindy called as they ran off.

Bubba then poured barbecue sauce on Cindy's head.

"What are you doing?" Cindy looked up at him.

"Your hair looked like it needed washing..." Bubba lied. "This is a new special conditioner..."

"YOU'RE TRYING TO EAT ME!" Cindy panicked. "I KNEW IT!"

"Now, Cindy, let's talk about this..." Bubba said.

"Get away from me!" Cindy ran from him.

"Dammit!" Bubba kicked the trashcan in frustration.

Cindy ran over to a wall and leaned on it, panting. "Man... That was close..."

Penn grabbed Cindy by her hood and pulled her up. "There you are! We gotta move!" he then ran while pulling her.

"Uhh, Penn, we got a problem." Cindy said as they were then surrounded by Skulker, Ember, Beautiful Gorgeous, Vicky, Johnny 13, and Kitty.

Maxwell stood in front of Cindy protectively.

"Pretty ladies wanna hurt us..." Cindy said nervously. "I'm very curious..."

"Well, hello, Kitty." Penn smirked as he walked over to Kitty.

"Hey, pal, she's my girlfriend!" Johnny 13 glared.

"Why do I smell barbecue sauce?" Ember asked.

"My uncle's trying to eat me!" Cindy cried.

"Great, more brats I can torture." Vicky grinned.

"And I can have the fat one's pelt on my wall." Skulker agreed.

"Eww, that's disgusting." Penn cringed.

"Hey there, handsome." Beautiful Gorgeous walked up to Teller with a smirk.

Teller gulped in response.

"This is all nice, but we gotta go..." Cindy said as she wrung her hair.

"Who said you twerps are leaving?" Vicky taunted.

"Oh-" Cindy started.

"Crap." Maxwell finished.

Ember's shadow then came alive and attacked the rockstar ghost.

"Johnny!" Kitty yelled out.

"It's not my shadow, Kitten!" Johnny 13 told her.

"This is really creeping me out..." Penn said before picking up Teller and holding him as a human shield.

"If it wasn't your shadow, then who was it?" Kitty asked her boyfriend.

Cindy shivered and bit her nails anxiously.

Suddenly, Johnny 13 and Kitty were attacked by their shadows, making them both scream out.

"Oh, come with me..." Beautiful Gorgeous stroked Teller's face. "I'll get you away from these awful people~..."

"I'm married and have a child." Teller defended.

Beautiful Gorgeous then kissed him right on the mouth. Teller's eyes widened and he turned bright red from the kiss.

"You lucky son of a..." Penn growled.

Cindy glared at the woman, then grabbed her by her hand and judo flipped her forward. "PAWS OFF!"

Beautiful Gorgeous grabbed Cindy by her shirt and threw her across the wall.

"I deserved that!" Cindy yelped as she splatted against the wall and slowly slid down onto the ground.

"Hey, you can't do that to her!" Penn glared at the woman. "No matter how hot you are!"

Skulker then came in front of the magician and cracked his knuckles.

"Oh, crap..." Penn looked nervous.

Cindy groaned as she flopped around and fell against a box. Bubba tiptoed up to his step-niece, then grabbed her by her ankles and dragged her away as she was knocked out.

"Hey, buddy, how about some Las Vegas magic right here in good old Nicktropolis?" Penn smiled nervously to Skulker as he took out a deck of cards. "Pick a card... Any card..."

"How about a pelt to my wall?" Skulker grinned darkly as he activated a gun from his wrist.

"How about a punch in the face?" a stranger asked before jumping down from the roof and punched the ghost in the face.

Penn ducked down and crouched, shivering nervously. Teller put his hands up defensively as the stranger fought and he stayed right by Maxwell's side to protect him.

"Who dares to try to beat Skulker: The Greatest Ghost Hunter?!" Skulker snarled.

"I-I-It's her..." Teller whispered.

"Me, the Dark Queen." Lil glared as she scowled at the bad guys.

"Teller, you act like you're scared or something." Penn chuckled nervously.

"Penn, I think we should move." Teller said.

"What's wrong with Nevada?" Penn asked.

"I mean from this spot." Teller grabbed his hands and pulled him backward as the Dark Queen was beating up the bad guys.

"Wait, where's Cindy?" Maxwell looked around.

"That disgusting uncle of hers did it." Penn snarled.

"Did what?" Maxwell asked.

"Oh, no..." Teller face-palmed. "This can't be good..."

Cindy groaned and her eyes slowly opened. "Ugh... My head... Where am I? Hello, is someone there?!"

There was suddenly pepper. Cindy sniffled, then sneezed.

Bubba took out a ladle and splashed some broth on her. "Oh, you're awake..."

"You can't eat me, we're family!" Cindy cried.

"Well, I obviously can't eat you now, you're awake..." Bubba said.

Cindy hopped out of the pot and ran off. "Stop trying to eat me!"

"Stay!" Bubba demanded.

"Someone, anyone, help!" Cindy cried out.

"Let her go!" a voice demanded. Hiding in the shadows was someone with a black suit with a moon symbol with a long red cloak, black boots, and a red mask with glowing red eyes.

"Show yourself!" Bubba challenged.

The figure snarled and stepped forward.

"I don't know who you think you are, but I have some family bonding to do with my delectable morsel of a niece..." Bubba said as he then grabbed Cindy and threw her into his pot, sitting on top of it to prevent her from escaping.

"He's gonna eat me, save me, whoever you are!" Cindy yelped.

Bubba stood up and stormed over to the figure. Cindy shivered as she heard punching and kicking from inside the soup pot. The pot was then opened up and then Teller pulled Cindy out of the pot.

"Teller!" Cindy gasped.

Teller put his finger in his mouth. "You need a little salt."

"Wait a minute, if you're here, then who's the figure over there?" Cindy asked.

"We don't know," Penn replied. "It's not the Dark Princess."

"Dark Queen." Maxwell corrected.

"Whatever!" Penn grabbed the boy's hat and pulled it down over his eyes.

"Hey!" Maxwell whined.

"Oh, Cindy, I'm safe!" Penn hugged Cindy. "I mean, you're safe... Which means, I'm safe!"

"My uncle is going to eat me!" Cindy cried out.

"That's ridiculous, Cindy, why would I eat you?" Penn smiled.

"Not you!" Cindy yelped. "Uncle Bubba! He keeps trying to eat me!"

"Who are you?!" Bubba demanded to the new hero.

"They call me the Moon Shadow." the new hero replied.

"Moon Shadow?" Bubba rolled his eyes.

"You better stay away if you know what's good for you..." the mysterious hero warned.

Bubba groaned before passing out. Moon Shadow howled at the moon before disappearing.

Penn kept kissing Cindy on the cheek as he held her in his hands. "From now on, you are never leaving my sight."

"That's disturbing." Cindy winced.

"You know what I mean." Penn scoffed.

"Moon Shadow, huh?" Teller wondered.

Cindy spat his backwash up. "Guh... Your breath smells like gasoline."

Maxwell yawned and stretched. "Man, I'm wiped out."

"We better get you kids to bed..." Teller suggested. "It's very late."
