The next day, Jodi went back to the factory. Mr. Waternoose was talking to Fungus, when Fungus' hardhat started floating around! Fungus started running around screaming, and Mr. Waternoose thought it was Randall.
"Randall, give Fungus his hat back." No answer. "Randall!" All of a sudden, Jodi un-blended and scared Fungus, sending him flying out the door yelling for help! Mr. Waternoose, being surprised himself, with a full cup of coffee, spilled it all over himself! "Jodi! You startle me!" Jodi grinned. "Good. I want to be a top scarer when I grow up."
"Well, you sure are getting a head start! I'll think you'll be a great scarer, Jodi, but being a top scarer takes patience, and a lot of hard work. You'll have to work extra hard if you want to get up to where Randall is."
"That's one thing I'm not good with. Patience. I knew there was a catch. It all sounded too easy." Just then, Randall called her.
"Hey, Jodi, come here a sec! There's something I wanna show you!"
"Be there in a minute!" Just as Jodi was running up to meet Randall, Sullivan came up to Mr. Waternoose, with Mike, of course.
"I'm ready to start scaring, sir."
"James! Perfect timing! Before you start, though, there's someone I want you to meet." He called Fungus. "Would you please go get Jodi?" After Fungus went off to get Jodi, he turned back to Sullivan and Mike. "I can't wait for you to meet her, James. She's such a bright little thing. A real bundle of energy!" Just then, Jodi came running.
"You wanted me, sir?"
"Jodi! There you are! There's someone I want you to meet." He brought her to Sullivan. "Jodi, this is James P. Sullivan, and Mike Wazowski. Our number one scare team." All of a sudden Jodi felt a chill of fear running down her spine. Here was the huge giant that she saw in the locker room the other day, standing right in front of her this minute! She couldn't stand there any longer. As Mr. Waternoose continued talking, Jodi interrupted him.
"Uh, sir, I really have to go. I-I'm sorry I couldn't get to meet you guys more. I'll talk to you some other time, okay? I-I'll see you later. Bye!" She ran as fast as she could, grabbing Randall by the arm on the way.
"That's strange," Said Mr. Waternoose. "She's usually not like that. I haven't known her to be shy." "I don't think she was shy, sir. Did you see the way she looked at me?"
"What are you talking about, James? You're the number one scarer! Who wouldn't want to meet you?"
"That's just it, sir! Think of the word 'scarer'. I think she's scared of me, sir." Randall and Jodi both ran into the simulator. When they got there, Jodi was practically out of breath, and threw herself down on the floor. Randall had a blank look on his face. He sat her up on the bed.
"What happened?" Jodi looked at him with petrified eyes. "Randall, I think I just met my worst nightmare."
"Randall, give Fungus his hat back." No answer. "Randall!" All of a sudden, Jodi un-blended and scared Fungus, sending him flying out the door yelling for help! Mr. Waternoose, being surprised himself, with a full cup of coffee, spilled it all over himself! "Jodi! You startle me!" Jodi grinned. "Good. I want to be a top scarer when I grow up."
