"Hey, Sulley, wait up!"
Sulley turned around to see a small green blur charging towards him. He stopped, confused, before realising what was happening. As liquid scream spilt out of a canister that the blur, Mike, was holding, footprints quickly formed in the spillages. Sulley finally realised what was happening; Randall was still chasing Mike after he had accidentally smashed Randall's collected scream canisters.
"HELLLPPPPP!!" Mike wailed as he darted behind Sulley, who spun around, watching his one-eyed green ball-shaped best friend cower behind him. "He's nuts, I tell you!" Mike grumbled as Randall turned visible again and scuttled off. "I can't believe that they let him back here after all that he put us through!" Sulley shook his head as he started to walk on.
"I don't know why they did it either. Come to think of it, why did they re- introduce screams as the main source of power?" Mike shrugged, and turned around to see Cilia. Sulley sighed, and scratched his shoulder as he made his way to the scare floor, deep in thought. He lifted up the papers on his clipboard, and gazed longingly at the simple, childish picture of him and a small girl taped to the back of the board. He missed her so much, and hadn't been able to track her down ever since she had moved out of her own home. Flipping back the papers to their old position, he walked to the lockers, and got ready for the scare session.
Rei looked around the room warily, as she half hid beneath her blankets. It was 1.00am now, and this time she wasn't going to let that thing, that monster get to her. She picked up the trap she had made out of a pole and a bent coat hanger, and placed under the blankets next to her. She settled down, and pretended to be asleep, one eye watching the closet door.
Half an hour passed, and just when she thought it wouldn't happen tonight she heard a rustling from behind the closet door. She felt around for her cellphone, and rang up her friend, Michelle. A sleepy voice answered.
"What is it?"
"Michelle? It's me, Rei."
"Rei, what is it? Oh wait, it's that monster thing again, isn't it? It's just your imagination."
"No it's not! He's been coming to me ever since I was two, and I even know his name."
"Well, what is it then?"
"Randall."
"Give it up already! You're 16 now, you shouldn't be imagining things at your age. You need a psychiatrist!"
"No, what I need is an exterminator!" With that, Michelle hung up, leaving Rei with her own fears. She heard the door open, and heard a rustling, but saw no one. This is it, she said to herself. She narrowly opened her eyes just enough to see a purple figure materialise in front of her. He emitted a loud screech, and she jumped up, pinning him to the ground with her pole. Randall struggled underneath the trap, looking up in despair at Rei, who was grinning in triumph.
"Lemme go!" He snapped, but Rei simply shook her head. He struggled some more, before turning to look up at her again. "You know I have to do this, Rei," he moaned. "I need the scream for power for the city, and if I don't get it, I'm out of a job!"
"Why not pick on some other kid?" She asked firmly, slowly releasing Randall, who rose to his feet shakily. She had tried to stop him before, but never like this. The wire coat hanger had dug into his neck, and had really hurt him. He rubbed his neck, and walked over to her bed, only to have Rei hold the pole at his throat threateningly. He stopped and put his hands up signalling her to stop.
"I'm not gonna scare you this time, okay?" He said, and Rei put down the pole. "Listen," he began, looking into her deep brown eyes. He didn't want to do this, but he knew he had to. Even if he didn't particularly like Sulley, he had to help him. "Sulley really misses you, and I think I've found a way to smuggle you into Monstropolis. It'll mean you have to wear a costume most of the time, but at least you'll be with Sulley. What do you say?" Rei thought about it for a moment, then looked up at Randall.
"I'll do it."
