"What will you two do?" Dana asked Podcast and Venkman.

"I mean, a nap kind of sounds great right now." Podcast admitted and Venkman agreed.

"I like the way you think Pocco." Venkman said.

"My name is Podcast." Podcast corrected Venkman and Venkman looked confused.

"What did I say?" Venkman asked and Podcast frowned.

"Pocco." Podcast reiterated and Venkman shrugged.

"Podcast, Pocco, what's the difference during a quickly approaching apocalypse?" Venkman sighed and then Podcast shook his head as he let out a sigh.

"Apparently nothing matters when we all could die tomorrow, especially to Phoebe." Podcast replied and then he got up and walked over to where the others were and he found them talking about a lot of options. Podcast then walked upstairs to their bedroom.

"You're just gonna go take a nap while everyone else is hard at work?" Dana asked and Venkman shook his head.

"First I'm gonna go talk to the kid. He has it bad for Egon's granddaughter and she's unsure if she feels the same way." Venkman corrected Dana. "And then I'm gonna take a nap while everyone else is hard at work. That's kind of my specialty."

"Good luck." Dana stated.

"Oh by the way, why are you here?" Venkman asked.

"Oh, well now there's a bunch of cartoon families in both of our apartments so we decided to give them the night until you guys fix this crap." Dana replied and Venkman nodded.

"Well, Ray and the kids are absolutely on the case. So you've got a good chance that you'll only have to stay the night tonight." Venkman stated and then he walked upstairs. Venkman found Podcast laying in bed, staring at the ceiling.

"You know I'm kind of the expert of loving someone who isn't quite sure she loves you enough to stay with you." Venkman said as he sat down in front of Podcast and Podcast sat up.

"Is it that obvious?" Podcast asked.

"Yeah." Venkman sighed and then he added onto it. "It's also kind of obvious that she isnt sure about her feelings, but that definitely means that there are feelings there."

"So what, just be patient?" Podcast asked and Venkman nodded.

"Sadly when it comes to girls, even after you start dating that never really ends. It's all about being patient, and in return she'll be patient with you too. Just give her some time. Keep in mind that she's got a lot of emotions going on right now. She's wanting to be a Ghostbuster and live out her grandfathers legacy, she doesn't want to disappoint Ray and I, she messed up and accidentally unleashed a witch ghost who's probably murdering half the world as we speak, she had a crush on that Phantom kid, which was a flame that was blown out instantly, so she's facing her first rejection, while also realizing that she has feelings for you, and on top of it, she's a girl. That makes any type of emotion ten times harder." Venkman explained.

"You know, you could get cancelled for saying something like that about women." Podcast pointed out awkwardly.

"I've said a ton of shit I should have been canceled for. If they didn't cancel me for calling Walter Peck, Dickless forever ago. They would have already gone back in time and canceled me by now if they were planning on it." Venkman responded and Podcast nodded in understanding.

"I mean, I get what you're saying though." Podcast replied and Venkman nodded as he sat there.

"I know it doesn't feel like it right now, but all jokes aside, I'm sure all of those brilliant minds downstairs will figure something out. It's gonna be ok. We're gonna take the witch down kid." Venkman assured Podcast and Podcast took a deep breath in and let it out.

"Just promise me, you'll protect Phoebe when you go to that Ghost Zone place." Podcast requested and Venkman nodded.

"Absolutely." Venkman agreed and he held his hand out. "Shake on it?" Venkman offered and Podcast smirked and shook his hand. "Alright then. Let's get some shut eye while the big brains are planning stuff out. Shall we?" Venkman asked and Podcast nodded and they both laid down and went to take a nap. Just then the Box Ghost jumped out of a box that was sitting in the corner.

"I AM THE BOX GHOST!!!!!" The Box Ghost wailed and Venkman let out a loud wine.

"Oh dear god." Venkman sighed as he sat up and saw the ghost. "Oh I'm shaking in terror." Venkman stated sarcastically and just then Danny walked in to grab something from his bag and his ghost sense went off and he turned his head.

"Ok, Box Ghost, this is SERIOUSLY not a good time." Danny snapped.

"When IS a good time for you though man?" The Box Ghost asked.

"Pretty much never because I ALWAYS defeat you." Danny responded quickly and just then Slimer floated in.

"Blehsemah ga soo fa me." Slimer said and Danny rolled his eyes.

"I'm sorry Slimer. I'm not trying to be mean to your new friend." Danny sighed and Slimer nodded. "He was just bothering Venkman and Podcast." Danny explained and Slimer looked to the Box Ghost and whispered to him for a minute.

"I APOLOGIZE HUMAN FRIENDS OF THE SLIMER!!!! I WILL NOW TAKE MY LEAVE!!!!" The Box Ghost yelled and he floated into a box and was gone.

"Ok I'm gonna take a nap now." Venkman sighed.

"Yeah get your rest. We're gonna have a pretty big fight ahead of us." Danny responded.

"Did you come up with a plan already?" Podcast asked and Danny shook his head.

"No but we don't all need to be present. Now if you guys dream up any ideas, feel free to share." Danny replied and then he walked out of the room and Slimer followed him.

"Well that was an interesting interaction." Podcast sighed and then he laid down. As he did all he could think about was Phoebe and he couldn't sleep. He went to sit up. "Hey Venkman, I'm gonna go down there and help them," Podcast started to say and he heard Venkman snoring. "Nevermind." Podcast got up and went downstairs. Podcast found everybody drinking coffee and writing on a whiteboard about different ideas. Phoebe looked exhausted. Podcast sat down next to her and she offered him some of her coffee.

"It's nasty and black but it'll help you stay awake." Phoebe offered and Podcast smirked and walked over to the fridge and pulled out vanilla creamer and grabbed some sugar packets and stirrer. He walked back over and poured some creamer in the coffee cup and then poured the packets of sugar and then stirred it and smirked at her.

"Try it now." Podcast said and Phoebe tasted it and she slightly smiled and nodded.

"Better." Phoebe said and they smiled at one another for a minute and then Podcast went an mad himself some coffee.

"So Podcast, we have an idea." Danny stated and Podcast looked to him as he took a drink of coffee and sat down next to Phoebe again. "If we're right about her connection to us, there is a ghost portal outside of the city that opens up every hour, and she would have to follow us out there if she is limited to a certain distance from us. Also, if we go ahead and remove all of the puddles from the road, she wont have any reflections to rely on but minimal ones and at that point we can blast her into the ghost portal. Danny explained and Podcast nodded.

"Simple, can go wrong, and probably will, but I like it." Podcast was optimistic, slightly.

"Alright, now the bigger problem. There has to be a way that she made our worlds collide and there has got to be something that is preventing our universes from stabilizing and parting ways again." Ray pointed out.

"Yes, I've been thinking about that." Danny agreed about brining it up.

"So you found a solution?" Ray asked.

"No. That's it. I've simply been thinking a lot about it. I have no clue." Danny replied cluelessly.

"Me either." Sam added and everybody was silent as they didn't know either.

"I just wanna take her stupid bloody staff and ram it in her face for hurting Trevor." Lucky sighed in frustration and that's when a light switch went off in Podcast's head.

"The staff." Podcast sighed.

"Yeah I was plunge it through her skull." Lucky snapped.

"Well that's overly violent." Danny stated as he was a little afraid of Lucky.

"She hurt my boyfriend. How would you feel if she did that to Sam?" Lucky retorted and Danny nodded.

"Probably about the same as you right now." Danny agreed.

"No guys," Podcast said as he stood up while holding his coffee. "I don't know if any of you got close enough to that witch's staff but didn't you notice that she didn't use it to attack anybody?" Podcast asked and everybody thought about it and nodded. "It's not for her attacks, so why does she have it?" Podcast pointed out.

"When I was right next to her," Phoebe started to say. "the blood in the staff looked like a cartoon and real life flow of blood was intertwining." Phoebe explained.

"That must be it." Ray said as he stood up as well. "It's probably a small hadron collider, or something of that nature. It must take the particle acceleration of the two worlds, and combine them so they won't separate due to the entanglement."

"What?" Danny asked in confusion.

"Ghost witch's stick stops the worlds from being fixed." Podcast dumbed it down and Phoebe smirked at him.

"Now that you mention it, she didn't have a staff until after the worlds collided." Danny added.

"Because it was forming while the worlds collided." Phoebe deduced and Danny nodded.

"We get the staff and destroy it, we fix our world's." Danny stated and everybody seemed to agree.

"Ok, one problem. What's going to protect us from being knocked out like Trevor and Tucker?" Lucky pointed out and everybody started thinking and Phoebe instantly had an idea.

"Danny what do the suits look like?" Phoebe asked and Danny thought about it.

"They're white." Danny replied simply and Phoebe nodded.

"Ray, do you think you can add a reflective coating to them?" Phoebe asked.

"Yeah, why?" Ray responded and Phoebe smiled.

"If she relies on reflection's to travel and goes into some world whenever she goes inside a reflection, when she goes to attack us," Phoebe started to explain and Ray nodded proudly at her.

"She'll just go into the reflection of the suits. Smart." Ray stated and just then Venkman walked in tiredly and walked over to the fridge.

"I'm hungry. We got any grub laying around that's not spoiled?" Venkman asked.

"Pete we came up with a pretty full proof plan. Now all we have to do is execute it." Ray explained and Venkman nodded.

"Great. Now is there any food here or do I need to go get some?" Venkman asked.

"Pete, it's 3 in the morning. Your gonna have to wait until stores open back up." Ray pointed out and Venkman let out a sigh and walked over to a cabinet and pulled out a bag of chips. "Those are mine."

"And you'll have to wait till morning for me to go buy you some more." Venkman replied and then he ate one and cringed. "They're disgusting, but they're editable so, in the stomach they go." Venkman stated and then he walked off again.

"I'll debrief him later." Ray sighed. "Ok, so Danny, you go get the suits and we'll get started on putting reflective shields on the proton packs to help charge them and avoid her from damaging them." Ray stated and everybody got to work.

Danny walked off and he noticed that Tucker looked like he was sick because he was very pale. Danny went over to him and felt his head and he had a fever.

"We're gonna fix this Tucker." Danny sighed. "I promise."

Danny then walked out of the building and went to fly to his house and made a realization. If what he was seeing was correct, his house was where the firehouse was. Danny was about to go outside when he heard distant screams. Danny then went ghost and started flying through the city. He could see grieving and panicking parents all worried about their children. He flew all over and saw that hundreds of children were dying because of Bloody Mary. Danny went back into his human form when he came across Vlad's house. His cousin Dani had been staying there since he was stuck in space. Dani was all alone and she was just like Tucker and Trevor, but worse. She looked like she was an inch from death. Danny walked in and he picked her up and then he went ghost and started flying with her.

Danny landed by the firehouse and walked in and found a couch and put Dani on it. Venkman was sitting and eating chips.

"Who's that?" Venkman asked.

"It's a long story, but if I'm putting it simply, she's family, and I suspect she was one of Bloody Mary's first victims." Danny explained as he was obviously upset. Danny then went on a hunch and walked over to a closet and opened it and he found the suits he was looking for.

"Those aren't ours. Where did those come from?" Venkman asked.

"I have a feeling I know a little bit more about how this all happened now." Danny sighed and then he grabbed the suits and walked into the meeting room as he tried not to show that he was upset. "Our houses exist in the exact same spot on the planes of our universes. That's how she did this. Phoebe and I summoned her in the exact same point in our universes. It caused a massive episode of quantum entanglement and she took advantage of it. Normally that energy would have dissipated and wouldn't have done anything but she used the temporary charge of quantum energy and used it to boost her paranormal powers to burst out of her prison. This wasn't a coincidence. This was planned." Danny explained and everybody took the information in. Danny threw the suits on the table and then shoved himself into a seat.

"Are you alright Danny?" Sam asked and Danny looked up at her with tears in his eyes.

"She got Dani." Danny revealed and Sam looked heartbroken for him and Dani.

"I thought Danny was you." Podcast said in confusion.

"I have a cousin named Dani, but it's spelled D-A-N-I. She was attacked by Bloody Mary." Danny explained and everybody looked sad. "So has the majority of the kids in the city. I just took a look at the damage that she's caused."

"Well then we better get moving." Ray said and Danny nodded.

"Let's send this bitch back to where she belongs." Danny stated as he looked sure of himself.

"Let's also try and keep the fowl language to a minimum because there are children here." Ray added and then he walked off to add the reflective coating to the suits.
