But here's part 3!
There will be a part 4 (:
Music played, waking Gabrielle up. She groaned, fluttering her eyes open. Her head hurt, she'd been dragged down the hallway and during that she got knocked out. She then remembered the last thing she could thing of, then she gasped and went wide eyed, looking around the room. She winced, then listened to the music as it repeated, "It's my party and I'll cry if I want to." she knew the song, she hated that song.
She looked past her, at the end of the table to see Corbett, "Hey, Corbett!" She whispered in a yell, her voice a little cracked, as she tried to get his attention.
"Huh?" Corbett groaned, as he lifted his head up.
"Corbett, listen to me. You gotta listen to me, alright? You have to keep yourself awake. Don't give in." Gabrielle talked to him, then she looked over to see Daggett's ghost appear.
"Don't listen." Daggett said, as he walked over to the table, Gabrielle watched as he picked up a knife, as he walked over behind Corbett, "It stops hurting, so don't worry."
Gabrielle moved in her chair, trying her best to get free, but she was tied, then she looked over at them, "No. Leave him alone. Corbett, stay with me!" She pleaded, then watched as Daggett went to stab the knife through Corbett's throat, "No! Stop!" She cried, but it was too late. She bit her lip, watching Corbett take his last few breaths. She hoped that Liz was already tearing up the house by now.

Dean, Liz, Sam, along with the Ghostfacers group ran down the hall, towards the den where they'd previously been, "Dean, what are you doing?" Harry asked, as he watched Dean run over towards one of the desks, Sam jogged up to the desk while Liz stood behind and crossed her arms.
"Okay, so Daggett was a cold war nut, okay? He was-he was an amateur taxidermist." Dean said, as he went through papers on the desk, Sam helping. "He liked to slow dance with cadavers, and all he ate were c-rations, so what the hell are we looking for?!" Dean yelled, as he hit the desk.
"I say we do my way, smash every wall, and dig up every floorboard." Liz said, as she turned around glaring at Spruce as he held the camera at her then he backed away awkwardly.
"Horrible little life." Maggie commented, feeling a bit sorry for the guy.
Sam lifted his head up, "That's it!" He shouted, as he threw down a paper.
Dean looked up, "What's it?"
"He lived a lonely life, during the cold war. Dean, he was scared."
Dean thought for a moment, "He was scared." He said, realizing what Sam meant. The other Ghostfacers looked confused, Liz's eyes widened, realizing what Sam and Dean meant, then she turned around and took off.
"Lizzie!" Dean called, before chasing off after her.
Sam put his head, "Dammit." He groaned, before running off after them.
"Hey! Scared of what! Where are you guys going?" Harry called after, as him and his group went to follow.
"Wait, don't leave me in here, you guys." Maggie said, as she ran to follow the others, running downstairs, before hearing a smash and she ran faster then stopped next to Harry, Ed, and Spruce.
"Liz, Lizzie, hey!" Dean yelled, as he ran up to her, "Stop!" He called, before boosting up his running and chasing after her down the stairs, grabbing her arm as she turned the steps.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Where are you going?" Maggie asked, as she followed to the steps.
Dean sighed, turning around, "Like Daggett back then, the ones who were really scared of the Russkies-they built bomb shelters." He replied, "I'm guessing he's got one. I'll bet you it's in the basement." He said, looking over at Liz, giving her a look, before she sighed and swatted her arm out of his grip, Dean just shook his head and walked over towards the basement, Liz watching him as he opened the basement door and walked down the steps, Spruce followed, then Sam went in, followed by Liz who was cut off by the door slamming shut, not letting her go any farther.
"Woah!" Harry yelled, as he jumped.
"Woah! That is not funny!" Ed yelled, thinking Spruce had done it.
"That bastard." Liz muttered, knowing Daggett had done that.
"Um, who closed the door?" Spruce asked, turning around.
"It did." Sam replied.
"It wants to separate us." Dean continued Sam's sentence, before there was a slam at the door. He rolled his eyes, "Lizzie, hey! Stop!" He yelled, as he ran back up the steps, Sam and Spruce moving to the side.
"No!" Liz yelled, as she slammed her foot against the door again, but no success. It was locked tight. Daggett wasn't letting her go farther.
"He's not gonna let you through! Just get the salt out of my duffel and keep the others safe!"
Ed squinted his eyes, then looked over at Harry, "Inside?"
"That's stupid." Harry replied.
Liz rolled her eyes, "In the salt, morons!" She snapped, shaking her head then turning back to the door.
"Lizzie, I love you." Dean said, from the other side of the door.
Liz smiled, "I love you too. You get my sister back."
"I will." Liz sighed, then she turned around and walked over to where the 'base camp' had been and where she left her and Dean's duffels, "Come on, idjits." She said, moving her hand in a motion to follow her.

Dean sighed, then he turned around to see Sam giving him a look, "What?"
"Awe." Sam said, in a humorous tone, and chuckle.
Dean rolled his eyes, "Shut up." Sam just chuckled, then followed Dean downstairs into the basement, Spruce close behind.

Liz got two cans of salt out of her and Dean's duffels then made a big enough circle for Maggie, Harry, and Ed, "Guys, guys, I don't want to die, okay, and I don't want you to die." Harry said, as he freaked out while Liz just rolled her eyes and threw the can of salt to the side, before walking over to her duffel.
"Harry, listen-listen to me, okay? Listen. If we don't die...it's totally okay if you, uh, do my sister." Ed said, which had Maggie push him, "Ow!" Liz huffed, then she pulled her shotgun out of the duffel.
"Nice." Maggie said, towards Ed, then she looked over at Liz seeing her take out the shotgun, "What are you doing with that?"
Liz turned around, "I have to protect you guys, don't I? Then I'm gonna need this." She replied, swinging the shotgun around to have her other hand cope the front end, "This gun is loaded with rock salt, it'll help."
"Are-aren't you gonna get in the circle?" Ed asked, seeing as Liz just hung out around the perimeter of the circle.
Liz gave him a smile, "I think I can handle myself, thanks." She said, as she walked around the circle like a guard.
Maggie then noticed her camera flickering again with interference and the picturing becoming filled with noise, "Hey guys, hey guys, it's coming again." Liz stood her ground, looking around, both hands now on the gun as she held it up, ready to shoot, while the others huddled close in the circle. The camera flickering a few times, before stopping, and Liz lowered her gun down.
"Oh, god." Ed said, as they looked up and over to see Corbett's ghost standing across the room, unable to speak and scared. Liz curled her lips in, shaking her head, "Oh. Oh, c-Corbett."

Down in the basement, Sam and Dean looked around trying to find some hidden door while Spruce stood behind Dean, camera still on, "Hey, can I ask you something?"
"What?" Dean asked, Sam darted his eyes over towards them as he continued to search.
"Earlier, when you were yelling at Liz, you had two months left?" Spruce asked, hoping he could get some story into their footage.
"Yeah, it's complicated." Dean said, as he walked around, "A while ago, Sam..." He started, before stopping in front of Spruce and the camera, Sam stopped and looked over at them, "No. No. No. I'm not gonna whine about my fucking problems to some fucking reality show. I'm gonna do my fucking job." Sam half laughed, before going back to looking around, he perked his head, swearing he heard music from somewhere.
"Is it cancer?"
"Guys, shut up! Listen!" Sam yelled, in a whisper towards them. Dean stopped, listening in, then he squinted his eyebrows and looked over at Sam, "Is that...music?" Dean's eyes widened, then he turned back to look at Sam and the two ran over to the cabinet in front of the wall from where they heard the music coming from, Sam pulled out his gun while Dean moved the cabinet.
"Wow, you're strong."
Dean flipped the finger over at Spruce, while Sam just gave Spruce a bitchface. Dean moved back a little, grabbing his gun out before him and Sam kicked the door open together, letting it fly open with a slam at the wall, "Elle!" Sam yelled, while they saw Daggett walking over to Gabrielle, who was moving around in her chair trying to get loose.
"Sam!" Gabrielle yelled, happy to see him, then she closed her eyes while Dean shot his gun at Daggett and Sam ran over to help untie Gabrielle.
"Hey, hey, you alright?" Sam asked, as he untied Gabrielle.
"Sam, I'm fine. A bit bruised, but fine." Gabrielle replied, then she looked over at Dean while Sam untied her, "Where's my sister?"
"Safe. I hope." Dean replied, Gabrielle squinted her eyes and tilted her head, then she shook her head and shrugged it off while she put her arms out, stretching, and standing up, once Sam untied her, and then he wrapped his arms around her.
Spruce walked in, seeing Corbett's body sitting there in one of the chairs across from Gabrielle, "Oh, no, Corbett." Dean and Sam turned and looked over at Corbett's body, frowning. They had saved Gabrielle, but they didn't have time to save Corbett.

Liz sat on the floor, cross legged, Corbett's ghost was gone, but he'd be back. She ran her fingers through her hair, while next to her Ed, Harry, and Maggie, sat in the circle. Ed was rocking back and forth, "Oh god, what have we done? Oh god."
Liz sighed, moving around, "Guys, it's not your fault."
"Ed. Ed." Harry said, as he tried to get a hold of his friend, putting his hand on Ed's shoulder to comfort him.
"Yeah?" Ed asked, as he continued to rock back and forth.
"Corbett's a-he's a death echo. R-right?" Harry asked, looking over at Liz who frowned and nodded her head, before Harry turned back to Ed, "So he's reliving his own murder."
"Over and over forever." Maggie spoke up, which had Ed stop rocking and looked over at her.
Liz sighed, shaking her head, before standing back up and then stomping her foot hard, "God, dammit!" She screamed.

"What's this Daggett guy's problem anyway?" Spruce asked, Gabrielle moved her hand in front of the camera and walked a head.
"He was lonely." Gabrielle replied, sniffling, the blood had now dried from her bleeding nose. She twitched her nose, then she brought her hand up and rubbed it across.
"What, he's never heard of a Realdoll?" Dean asked, Gabrielle rolled her eyes.
"No. Daggett was more of the Norman Bates kind, and that's why he took those bodies from the morgue, threw himself a birthday party, except they were the only ones who would come." Gabrielle said, as they walked out of the room and she stopped, "So, at midnight, he sealed them in the bomb shelter and went upstairs and o.d.'d on horse tranqs." She continued, she kind of felt sorry for the guy...the guy that had been human. Not his ghost.
"And, how do you know that?" Sam asked, knowing there hadn't been anything George had given them that had said that.
Gabrielle was silent for a moment, "Because he told me." Sam put his hand on Gabrielle's shoulder, rubbing it, and she lifted her arm up and took his hand.
"Okay, so now that he's dead, what? Same song, different verse, trying to get people to come to his party?" Dean asked.
Gabrielle nodded, "Yeah, pretty much, I guess." She replied, while Dean took his shotgun and reloaded it.
"Are those real bullets?" Spruce asked, watching as Dean reloaded his gun.
"It's rock salt." Dean replied.
"Dean, where is my sister? She is okay, right?" Gabrielle asked, turning towards him.
Sam sighed, and Dean looked over at her, "We got separated from the group, they're upstairs. If anything, Liz can handle herself." Gabrielle bit her lip, hoping that Dean was right.

Liz crossed her arms, the gun was on the floor and she paced around back and forth, "Ghostfacers... we go to places the others will not..." Liz raised a brow, stopping while Harry sung, "Ghostfacers...stay in the kitchen when the kitchen gets hot." Liz just shook her head, she couldn't wait until this night was over with, she did deserve a vacation.
Maggie then noticed her camera flicker again, "Guys." Liz stopped, looking over at her, "Corbett." She pointed out, Liz turned around, seeing Corbett's ghost again and she sighed. She walked over, grabbing her gun off the floor.
"Don't shoot, don't shoot!" Maggie yelled, seeing Liz pick up her shotgun.
Liz looked over, then she sighed and lowered her gun. Ed stopped rocking back and forth then looked towards the camera, "Guys, it's-it's Corbett. He's-he's -he's trapped. He's in a lot of pain, you know? We got to try and...we got to try and pull him out of his loop." He said, looking over at Harry, before standing up, "We have to." He said, turning around and facing Corbett.
"Ed?" Harry asked, while Liz crossed her arms and watched the guy. She knew the last time Dean tried talking to the echo it hadn't worked, but maybe she thought Ed could get through to Corbett, it was worth a shot.
"Corbett. Corbett," Ed said, as he walked closer, before stopping a looking down at the salt line, lifting his foot up, "Oh, god."
"Don't cross the line of salt."
"I gotta do it, Harry."
Harry looked over at Liz and she gave him a nod, "He'll be fine." She assured him, before Harry turned back to his friend, who'd crossed the salt line.
"Corbett, listen to me. Okay, I'm not gonna hurt you." Ed said, as he walked slowly over towards Corbett. Liz held her gun up ready to shoot, just encase, "Listen. Listen. Oh, god. Corbett." Corbett flickered, having Ed run back towards the group.
"Get back!" Harry said, pulling Ed back into the circle.
"Oh, god. Whoa. Oh, I can't, okay?" Ed said, as he looked over at Corbett, "He's not hearing me, okay? He won't stop dying." Ed cried, then he looked over at Liz, "Why won't he stop dying?!"
Liz slowly shook her head, "I-I don't know. I never did anything like this before. I'm sorry." She replied, and she really was sorry. Then she turned her head, hearing banging at the basement door, "Dean!"

Dean attempted to bust the door open while Sam, Gabrielle, and Spruce stood back, "Lizzie, stay there!" Dean yelled, before slamming the door again.
Sam turned to look over at Spruce, seeing that he was still filming everything, "Seriously, you're still shooting?"
Dean stopped slamming the door with the crowbar, "It makes him feel better. Don't ask."
"The hell?" Gabrielle said, then she shook her head, as Dean went back to slamming the door with the crowbar, before stopping and sighing.
Spruce then noticed his camera flicker, "Ah, hell, guys. Get in your ghost-role thing. Something's coming." Before he turned to his side and saw Daggett's face in his camera, "Oh!" Spruce yelled,, as he was thrown to the side, and he backed up as Daggett tried approaching him, but was shot by Sam and disappeared.

While in the living room area, Corbett's ghost still hadn't left. Ed stood by Harry in the circle, Maggie across from them. Liz stood by, protecting them, but she had a feeling that Corbett wouldn't harm them, it was Daggett she was worried about, "I...I know how we can get through to him." Harry said, remembering something about Corbett, looking over towards Ed.
"How?" Ed asked, while Liz turned around to them.
"Ed...He had feelings for you."
"Huh?"
Harry shook his head quick, then looked back at Ed, "He wanted you." He replied, as he patted Ed's chest, hoping Ed would realize what he was trying to say.
"Wa-wanted me to what?" Liz rolled her eyes, shaking her head. She couldn't believe what she was hearing.
"You know." Harry spoke out, looking over at Maggie awkwardly then back at Ed, before pelvic thrusting which Ed realized what Harry meant, "And you know what you've got to do. You can do it, Ed. You've always been the brave one." Harry tried getting to Ed, who shook his head, "Yes, you can. You make us brave-Maggie, right?"
Maggie nodded her head, "Yeah. Yeah you do. You totally do." Liz crossed her arms, watching in a slight entertainment.
"Ed...You got to go be gay for that poor, dead intern. You got to send him into the light." Harry coached, Liz's eyes widened, did she just hear what she thought she heard? Yeah, she did.
Ed and Harry looked over at Corbett, in silence. Ed looked over towards Liz, seeing if it was okay and Liz gave him a smile and nodded, before Ed stepped out of the circle, walking over towards Corbett, "Corbett."
Maggie watched, then moved closer, "Maggie, no. no." Harry whispered, stopping her from crossing the salt line.
"Corbett, look. Hey, it's just Ed, buddy. It's just me. Hey, hey, Corbett, listen to me. Listen to me. I-we... Okay." Liz stood straight up, watching the moment, hoping that Ed could help Corbett out of his loop, "You meant... Corbett, you meant a lot to the team. You meant...You meant a lot to me. You know, never back down...Never say a bad word, okay? I remember that, Corbett. I-I remember that. I remember because I love you, Corbett. I really, truly love you."
Liz watched as Corbett's ghost stopped breathing fast and actually looked over towards Ed, she quietly gasped, putting her hand up to her mouth, "Do you remember that? do you?"
"Hey. Ed?" Corbett said, Liz couldn't believe it, Ed had managed to get Corbett out of his loop. She had to admit, that was pretty emotional and she didn't usually get emotional over this kind of stuff, she blamed her hormones.
"Yeah. Yeah, Corbett, it's... Corbett, yeah, it's me. It's me. look at me." Ed replied, as Corbett walked over towards him. "You got to help us, man. you have to help us, Corbett. Please. please. Please help us right now."

Spruce had got himself back up, Sam looked over at him, "Take it easy. you all right?" Sam asked, not realizing that Spruce's camera flickered again.
"Uh, guys..." Spruce said, but it was too late and Daggett had thrown Dean across the room, having Sam run up towards him and Daggett throw him to the opposite side of the room.
Gabrielle stood her guard in front of Spruce, she turned her head slightly towards him, "Hey, you're gonna be fine." She said, before turning to Daggett as he walked towards them, "Come on, Daggett, have a piece of me." She said, with a smirk, hoping that maybe her new powers she had could defend her, but before she could do anything she was thrown to the side and hit the floor hard.
"This is bad, very bad." Spruce said, as Daggett looked over at him and began to approach him, noticing his camera flicker once again before Daggett could grab him, Spruce watched as Daggett stopped and then turned where Corbett's ghost had appeared. Gabrielle turned over to her side, "Corbett?" Spruce asked, before Corbett's ghost ran towards Daggett's and jumped him, each entity conflicting with each other, trying to cancel one or the other out before they were engulfed by a bright light and vanished into thin air.
Spruce looked over at Dean, "You alright, dude?" He asked, Dean just grunted as he stood back up. Spruce then turned towards Gabrielle, and helped her stand back up, then Sam walked over to Gabrielle to check if she was alright and she gave him a nod, "God." Spruce said, and Dean who had just walked over looked over at him and put his hand in front of the camera.
"Off." Dean stressed, Spruce just nodded and put the camera down turning it off.
"Dean!" Liz yelled from the steps, the door had come loose again Dean turned around and ran up to her, stopping at the steps as she ran down to him.
"Hey, hey, you alright?" Dean asked, frantically.
Liz nodded, "Dean, I'm fine. We're both fine." She gave him a smile, then Dean brought her into a hug.
"Spruce! Spruce!" Ed, Harry, and Maggie all yelled as they ran down the steps running past Liz and Dean and up to their friend talking all at once, saying how they got the footage of a lifetime and what happened to them both.
Liz looked past Dean, over towards Gabrielle as she gave her sister a smile. Liz quickly let go of Dean, then ran up to her sister and the two engulfed each other in a hug, "Gabby, don't you ever scare me like that again!"
Gabrielle slightly laughed, "Liz, I'm alright. Okay? No worries." She assured her sister. Sam and Dean both smiled, seeing the girls together again.
Liz hugged her sister tighter, "I was worried sick about you. I thought I might've lost you back there."
Gabrielle smiled, "Well, you didn't. I don't think any ghost can get to me."
Liz and Gabrielle parted, looking each other straight in the eyes. "Alright, come on guys, let's get out of here!" Sam yelled, cutting off everyone's conversation amongst each other.

Dean opened the door, the sunlight from the sunrise now over the horizon as the darkness left that had once flooded the night. He moved his hand in front of his eyes, as the sun shined bright into them and pierced his vision. Behind him came Liz, Dean turned around and she gave him a smile, before she turned back and moved out of the way to let Sam through then Gabrielle close behind him.
Liz gave Gabrielle a smile, then she walked up and hugged her sister while the Ghostfacers came out from the house, still astonished at had what happened to them in the last couple hours. Dean and Sam smiled at the girls, "Come on." Dean said, as he patted Liz's shoulder, and the sisters broke their hug.
"So, were you telling the truth about taking a vacation? Or was it just something you thought you could say in hoping it'd calm my ass down?" Liz asked, as her and Dean walked to the Impala, Dean's arm wrapped around Liz's shoulder.
Dean half laughed, "I don't know, do you wanna?" He asked, as they stopped in front of the Impala and they turned to each other.
Liz shrugged, thinking for a moment, "Well, I heard Vegas seems pretty cool to go to this time of year." She replied, with a smile, Dean let out a little laugh with a smile.
Behind them, Sam turned around to Ed, pulling out a piece of paper, "Here, if you ever need us. There's my number." He said, handing it to Ed, then giving him a pat on the shoulder, turning to Gabrielle who gave him a smile and he walked up to her, wrapping his arm around her shoulder and the two walked over towards the Impala.
"Come on," Dean started, "Let's get back to George's." He said, as he opened the driver's door and got in.
Liz turned to Sam, crossing her arms, "I don't have to fight you for shotgun, do I?" She asked.
Sam half laughed, shaking his head, "Nah." He replied, then turned and looked at Gabrielle who looked at him, "I don't think the back will be so bad right now." He said, which had Gabrielle smile at him and then she leaned over and gave him a quick kiss. Liz smiled, before turning and walking around the Impala to the shotgun side as Sam and Gabrielle got in the back.
Dean looked through the mirror, smiling at Gabrielle and Sam in the back as Sam had his arms wrapped around her and Gabrielle rested her head on his shoulder. He then took the keys out of his pocket, put them in, and then started up the Impala.
Liz bobbed her head a bit, hearing the chorus to Takin' Care Of Business by Bachman-Turner Overdrive come out of the speakers and looked out the window as Dean pulled out and headed back to George's place.
