"Come on!" Peter said sticking his head out of the Ecto-1. "Let's run some red lights!"
Grandma Irene smiled as she stayed invisible and flew through the city beating the Ghostbusters to the apartment building. An entire crowd of people surrounded the building being held by police and the military. Peter smiled as they got out of the car.
"Hello, New York!" Peter said soaking up all the attentions. "Well, hi, everyone!"
He took Ray's hand and held it up making the crowd cheer loud.
"Dr. Ray Stantz! Would you please? The heart of the Ghostbusters! Thank you. They love you. They love you here!"
Everyone looked up and noticed the sky was growing dark as clouds surrounded the top of the building and lightning flashed.
"We might have to put a little overtime in on this one", Ray gulped looking at the building.
Just as they took one step toward the building, the earth beneath them began to rumble. The asphalt beneath them cracked as the street opened up as if to swallow the Ghostbusters whole.
"Boys!" Grandma Irene shouted as they fell into the hole.
The people called out to them hoping they were still alive. They waited in anxious silence for something to happen. Ray reached up and pulled himself out of the hole along with the others. The crowd cheered as their heroes appeared unharmed.
"Are you guys okay?" Grandma Irene asked.
"We're all right, it's all right", Peter said. "We can take it! You got to learn to play rough! You want to play rough?"
"Yeah!" Ray said making the crowd cheer.
"Let's go!" Winston said.
"Hope you like stairs", Grandma Irene told the boys. "Cause you're going to be climbing a lot of them."
The crowd cheered as the Ghostbusters entered the building ready to save the day.
The Ghostbusters groaned and panted as they climbed up the stairs. Grandma Irene floated above them watching amused.
"Told you there were a lot of stairs", she said
"Where are we?" Peter asked.
"It looks like we're in the teens somewhere", Ray panted.
"Well, when we get to 20, tell me. I'm going to throw up."
"Oh get over it", Grandma Irene said. "Denise ran all the way up to 22."
The Ghostbusters continued climbing up the stairs cursing whoever thought skyscrapers were a good idea. Their legs were feeling like lead now.
"22", Ray said looking at the floor. "Is this is?"
Grandma Irene nodded and floated down the hallway.
"Art deco", Egon said looking around. "Very nice."
"This is our apartment", Grandma Irene stopped outside her door.
"Dana's is right next to hers", Peter said.
They went inside the apartment noticing how ruined everything was. There was a hole blown through the wall. Everything was burned and covered in ectoplasm. Ray looked into the kitchen seeing more stairs.
"Where do these stairs go?" he asked.
"Denise went up those stairs before she disappeared", Grandma Irene said.
"Okay", Peter said. "Go ahead. Come on, go ahead. Come on. Go ahead!"
He stepped back letting everyone else go ahead of him. The boys groaned having to go up more stairs. Before they knew it, they were on the roof. The wind was blowing strong up there. The Ghostbusters saw Dana and Louis standing with their hands up as lightning began to strike.
"Dana!" Peter called out.
Lightning strike again, this time hitting Dana and Louis. The Ghostbusters watched as Dana and Louis got down on all fours and transformed into demon dogs.
"Okay", Peter said. "That's all. She's a dog."
They watched the dogs run up to the door that was opening. Ray's eyes widened as a figure stepped through the door.
"Denise…"
