Ghostbusters Fan Fiction Short Piece Extract & a quick update from me.

Hi Everyone, a Quick update from me; I am nearing 700 views, I know this does not sound like much, but to think people have looked at my page just about 700 times makes me feel a little better about myself. Anyway, I was wanting to give away something to the 700 Viewer, but It will be hard for me to know who it is and if they are telling the truth. Anyway what I am going to do in this update is post a small Extract from my fan fiction I am working on, I am not sure what to call it yet, but the working title is “Arrow of Cupid”. As you probably guess from that name, it involves cupid, you might be thinking now, “this is going to be some soppy fan fiction” and your probably right; but I am going to do it in the hilarity that is Ghostbusters Extreme, in the fashion of a ‘90’s cartoon style humour with a little added adult humour in there too.
Anyway, here is the Extract, hope you like it, the whole thing isn't very long, and will probably only be about 10 pages on A4, but its just something to get me writing again.

Meanwhile at the firehouse, it was another boring ghost less day, Roland was laid on his back working on the Ecto-1 which had needed a tune-up for quite a while but they had previously been too busy to work on it and thanks to the lack of ghosts he'd been able to get if fixed. He'd also been working on the Proton packs which now would need less power from the Proton charges and gave a better output. Upstairs in the lab, Egon and Kylie were flicking through books studying their last catch; it was a small Class 1 ghost that seemed to be able to inhabit other ghosts, it was completely harmless and was non-sentient, it was more of a parasite that seemed to feed of the energy of another ghost, Egon had speculated that they could use it for ghost hunting but needed a way to control it.
Out in the living room area of the firehouse Garret and Eduardo were sat playing videogames on the new widescreen TV they had bought for the firehouse; 'seeing as we're here all the time, why not have a decent TV' was the thinking behind Eduardo's purchase.

"So, you got a date for tonight?" Garret asked out of the blue, just as he threw his controller into the air with a "Woooo" of victory,

"No... I don’t need one, this whole day stinks; just another excuse for couples to go lovey-dovey and for companies to bump up the price of chocolate" Eduardo replied with a sigh as he put the controller down by the Xbox with a huff. As if called by the simple act of saying 'chocolate' Slimer flew up through the floor as fast as you could have clicked your fingers.

"Chowcowate!" it cried out and searched around, making a mess of everything it flew through; including Eduardo's face.
"Slimer! There is no Chocolate here... Get lost" Eduardo cried out as he tried to wipe his face clean with his bare hands, only making his hands sticky in the progress.


"Perhaps Slimer could be your date" Garret laughed and wheeled himself over to the fridge and pulled out a bottle of cola.

"Oh... ha ha" Eduardo laughed sarcastically before making his way over and grabbing a bottle too. "Have you got one Mr. Everyone-Loves-Me?" Eduardo asked but Garret just shook his head and shrugged.
"I don’t need anyone, I got my basketball and I got busting ghosts, I don’t want to settle down yet, I want the thrill not the boring lovey-dovey stuff." Garret replied and the pair both chuckled,
Hope you guys like this, I am working on getting this finished soon, but with University, sleeping problems, depression, lack of writing and other stuff getting in my way, it might be a while. I have set my plan of finishing it before Expo this weekend, So i can have Devon read it for me and get her opinion on it. Anyway this is me signing off for tonight, try and get some sleep. (Its 3am here now :( )

Here is a quick pic I found of the Ghostbusters Extreme team in origional ‘busters gear, not sure why Garret has a missing leg :S
