Spooky Stakeout Page #3

- Has Emma got asthma?

[phone goes dead]

- Try it again.

- I am.

- It's not working.

[loud series of thuds]

- Should we open it?

- It's probably just...

- just the wind.

- Yeah, just the wind.

Go on then.

- [gasps]

- My heart!

- Who's he?

-[mumbles]

[groans with relief]

Thank you, thank you.

- What happened to you?

- The sixth years tied me up

and locked me in here.

- Why?

- Because I am a prefect

and they were mitching class.

Wait, what are you

still doing here?

[cracks neck]

- We're looking for our friend.

- And the school ghost.

- How do you know

about the school ghost?

- What do you know

about the school ghost?

[creepy whispering noise]

- What?

No.

I don't want to.

Listen, if you let me go,

I'll help you find...

[cracks neck] Emma.

- How did you know her name?

[creepy whispering noise]

- Shh! Be quiet!

". OK?!"

Okay, group meeting.

So, what are we gonna do?

- He's gone crazy.

Look at him.

[cracks neck]

We should leave him here.

- We can't do that.

- He's really freaking me out.

- I say we leave him.

- Yeah.

- No.

- No, Sarah's right.

We can't just leave him.

So, you promise you'll behave?

Alright.

-[sinister laughing]

We're free!

We're free!

[laughing]

- I thought you were

gonna help us find Emma!

- That might have

been a mistake.

- Nice one.

- Let's keep looking.

- Alright?

- [laughing maniacally]

We're free!

- When you're ghost-hunting,

you never know who

you're going to bump into.

You have to expect

the unexpected.

- Any idea of who that guy was?

- Just some weirdo.

I heard he was locked up

and doctors experimented

on his brain.

- They lobotomized him?

- I've no idea what that is.

All I know is they cut

part of his brain out

and put it in ajar somewhere.

[ghostwhispering]

- Listen to that.

What was that?

- The Idiots Guide to Ghostly

Possessions and Spells.

- Either the ghost

is saying we're idiots

or we might just have

a possession on our hands.

- Do you ever get scared?

'[gulps]

I don't have time to get scared.

I'm just worried

about the others.

[photocopier whirring]

- Hey, lads.

Get this.

- Freaky.

- Do you think it could be Emma?

- Or the ghost.

- The ghost knows

how to work a printer?

It's obviously Emma.

- But maybe the ghost has her

and is trying to

send us a message.

- I don't know about that, Cian.

- I've got an idea.

Give us a leg-up.

- What are you doing?

- What's it look like I'm doing?

I'm going to photocopy my bum

and stick the pictures

all over school.

- How's that gonna help?

- Help what?

- I'll be outside doing

some real investigatin'...

when you're finished

foolin' around.

Excuse me.

- Wait, stop!
