hurricane season so i have like a week off of school

Podcast leans on the car. "Hey, dudes. We need a ride. Do you know how to drive?"

"He doesn't. He failed his driver's test three times." Phoebe whispers.

"Huh?" Y/N turns their head to look at Trevor.

"I dont see you with a permit either." Trevor responds. Y/N opens their mouth, doesn't say anything, and closes it, sitting back in the passenger seat. "Yeah." Y/N makes a mocking face. Trevor looks past them at the two younger kids. "Get in the back."

Podcast rummages around in the car, looking for anything. He opens a draw and pulls out a ghost trap attached to a small car and plays with a switch on it.

"Wait, so... back up again. What?" Y/N says, turning around in their seat to look at Phoebe.

"In the 1980s, New York City was attacked." Phoebe starts.

"Yes, we know about the Manhattan ghost stories." Trevor says.

"Yeah, well the stories are real." Phoebe says, moving closer to the front of the car.

"Yeah, and so we're the guys who climbed a building and saved the world-" Podcast takes a breath. "-and fought back an invading army of the undead. Not to mention a 100-foot marshmallow man."

Phoebe pulls out another proton pack and looks over at Trevor. "Our grandfather was Egon Spengler. He was a ghostbuster."

Trevor looks over at Phoebe with his mouth open.

"Holy shit." Y/N breathes, looking between Phoebe and Trevor.

The radio in the car turns on and a report started. "All units, we're getting reports of... well, some kind of animal takin' a bite outa Steve Fletcher's truck. Apparently, he almost took the whole tailgate off?"

Podcast turns his head towards Phoebe. "Muncher."

"Muncher." Phoebe repeats.

"What?" Y/N asks.

===

All four  kids look around as Trevor drives through the town slowly, looking for whatever the hell a muncher is.

"So, what should I be looking for?" Trevor asks.

"Evidence." Podcast answers.

Y/N looks back at the two younger kids. "Okay, but like, what specifically? What does muncher look like?" 

"Blue." Pheobe shrugs. "A bit transparent."

Trevor turns a corner and the two kids go to lean on the front seat. Y/N moves out of the way so they had more room, and ends up being so close to Trevor that their hips touched. 

Trevor glances at Y/N out of the corner of his eye and lets out a shaky breathe. He clears his throat and takes one hand off the wheel, resting his arm on top of the seat behind Y/N. "You guys, this is kind of stupid. Are you sure you didn't see, like, a raccon or like a possum?"

Phoebe's arm suddenly shoots forward as she shouts, snapping Y/N out of their daze. "There!" Trevor hits the brakes. Muncher was floating by a fire hydrant, going ham on it.

"Is that a-" Trevor starts, speechless on what he was looking at.

"Free-floating metal muncher. Definitely class five." Podcast says. 

"Okay, well, what do we do now?" Trevor asks.

Podcast smirks. "We get him."

"Wait, what? With what?" Y/N moves to look behind the seat as the kids move to grab something.

"Let me get a picture first." Podcast leans forward, pushing Y/N more into Trevor.

"Hey- dude." Y/N says.

"Just give me a second." Podcast says slowly. He accidentally steps on a lever, pushing it down. 

The side door swings open. "Guys?" Pheobe yelps as the seat she was sitting in slides out of the car and turns to face the front of the car. She slowly turns to look at Podcast with her mouth agape. 

"It has a gunner seat?" Podcast gaps.

"That's pretty slay." Y/N says.

Muncher stops eating the fire hydrant and slowly turns to look at the car. He grabs the fire hydrant outlet and turns it, screaming as the water comes out and flying away.

"Go, go, go!" Phoebe shouts. Trevor presses down on the pedal. The car shoots forward, which pushes Podcast back, giving Y/N room to scoot away from Trevor. 

"Phoebe, do you have your seatbelt on?" Y/N calls back to her. 

Phoebe looks around on the seat for a seatbelt and finds one that buckles across her lap, giving Y/N a thumbs up. They return it with a smile and face forward again.

Phoebe holds the gun up, trying to aim, and shoots at Muncher. She misses, hitting a nearby building instead. 

Muncher steadies himself to face the car and starts shooting metal pieces out of his mouth. Everyone in the car starts screaming, Y/N holding onto the back of the seat.

Trevor tries to swerve the car around the direction of the metal pieces. Phoebe looses control of the gun a bit, destroying a couple stands nearby. Muncher flies in an alley, trying to get away from the kids. 

As Trevor turns the corner, Y/N looks in the back. "Podcast, do we have anything to help?"

"Uh, uh-" He looks around the car. "We have the remote controlled trap! But we can't do anything with tha-" 

"Trap him!" Phoebe yells. Podcast and Y/N look out the front to see that Phoebe had hit him with the proton pack. The beam was wrapped around Muncher, relatively holding him in place, except for the fact that he was still advancing.

Podcast smiles as he grabs the trap and moves further back in the car. Y/N looks back and climbs over the seat to go help Podcast. Trevor glances at Y/N and ducks to avoid getting hit by Y/N's foot.

"Oo- Sorry!" Y/N says.

Y/N watches as Podcast opens a lift in the car and lets the car roll down it, then drive it up to the ghost. "Okay, here we go." Podcast says as he and Y/N move back to the front of the car. "Come on, keep it straight!"

"You try driving this thing!" Trevor replies. 

Muncher turns a corner, Trevor following with the car. From outside, Phoebe's eyes widen at how close she was to the other cars. 

"Trev, move the car over!" Y/N says, noticing Phoebe's situation. 

Podcast yells, "Ready!", once the trap was under Muncher. 

"Trap him already!" Phoebe replies. 

Podcast starts counting down, Trevor joining him. The two look at each other, Y/N in between them but looking over to make sure Phoebe was okay. "Three, two, one-" 

Trevor screams when he look forward again. A truck was right in front of them, which quickly swerves around them. 

Muncher flies off to the left. The beam from the proton pack destroys the top of the truck and some other items that were in the bed of the truck. Then it continues to go and destroy most of the Spinners sign. 

The car quickly comes to a stop, the tires screeching against the pavement. Trevor breathes heavily. "Oh my god, what just happened?" He looks behind at Y/N, who had fallen over during the stop. "You good back there?" 

"Yep." Y/N groans as they get back up. Trevor smiles in amusement. Y/N notices. "Shut up. Maybe you should drive better" They joke.

Phoebe pulls the lever and gets back inside the car. 

"He's heading to the mountain!" Podcast exclaims. 

Y/N leans over the seat between Podcast and Trevor again. "Are we going to keep going after it?" They ask, look at Trevor. 

Trevor turns his head to look at them, his eyes widening when he notices how close their faces were. Without thinking, his eyes drop to Y/N's lips. Luckily for him, they didn't notice, as they turned to look at Podcast and Phoebe, waiting for an answer. 

Phoebe nods. "Let's go." 

Word Count: 1234 (okay but like this is the second time this has happened wtf)
