What Slappy and the Invisible Boy did not know was that they were being watched. Across from them was a tree, and standing behind said tree was a living and breathing person.

She did not reside in the town of Madison. She was here on business - and to cause some mischief. She wore a red, long-sleeved shirt and black slacks and black flats. Her black cloak danced in the wind, and her hood covered her face and blonde hair. She is a Forlot character, so I strongly encourage you to read the Forlot series.

Not only is she clever, but she is a powerful villain. Yes, she is a villain. In fact, the greatest villain that the fictional world has ever known - to avoid. Part of what makes her so powerful is that she is a fictional expert. She is aware that she is fictional and uses it to her advantage. Knowing this, it should not come as a surprise to you readers that she knew who the Invisible Boy and Slappy were.

She was watching their every movement, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. An innocent human - or monster - would be her next victim.

"I will have you know, Slappy, that ladies are chasing me," the Invisible Boy said. "Once you go invisible, you never go back."

"Is that so?" Slappy said. "Then suppose that you tell me how the ladies can chase you when they cannot see you. Why, they could be after me. Once you go magical puppet, you never go back." He laughed at his awful joke.

The Invisible Boy snickered. "Whether or not that may be true, I am grateful that girls are not writing fanfictions about me."

"'Fanfictions'?" the puppet repeated. "Why the heck are you making words up?"

"It is a real word. Look it up on the Internet if you do not believe me."

Slappy checked himself in the rearview mirror. "Do these girls write about me because I am handsome and amazing?"

"Yes, but...not in the way that you think."

"What do you mean?"

"Well...do you assume that they write stories about being your slaves and bowing to you?"

"Duh. How else would they portray me?"

"Oh, I do not know. Maybe...maybe they portray you as the hot dude falling in loving with them."

Slappy's small body froze. He wanted to respond, but was speechless. How can any so-called "fan" do that to him? How can any Goosebumps fan write about him having feelings for his slaves? It was an insult!

"It gets worse," the Invisible Boy continued.

Slappy gripped the steering wheel and finally found his voice. "What could be worse than that?"

The Invisible Boy whispered in his wooden ear. "We are in a fanfiction."

"Is a girl writing it?"

"I am afraid so."

"That is it!" He grabbed the manuscript from under the Invisible Boy's leg.

"What are you going to do, Slappy?"

"Shelly will be my bride. She will be mine and no one else's. But I will not fall in love with her."

"You sure? You two have a ton in common. You and Shelly would make a great couple."

The puppet was spot-on when grabbing the Invisible Boy's neck. His eyes glowed. "Shelly is my bride. She will compliment me and make me feel good."

"When you say that she will make you feel good, are you implying—"

He cut him off. "Yes! Shelly will give me massages. I cannot be evil without a massage here and there."

"Cannot argue with that." The Invisible Boy messed with the radio. "So when are you and Shelly going to get married?"

"Tonight. Once the ring that I created just for her is on her finger, she will be under my control."

"So you are on your way to kidnap her now."

"I will not kidnap her until she is out of the hospital."

"What? Why is Shelly in the hospital?"

"It is a long story. Thankfully, I know the jerks who hurt her. I found out when she talked in her sleep. I even got her to say the magical words!"

"Awesome!"

The radio began blaring this music:

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

The Haunted Car drove down the road and turned to the left.

On the street where the car was driving down was a house that belonged to one of Shelly's ex-boyfriends. On this particular day, Chad had invited James over to hang out and play videos. Since that Shelly broke up with James, they have been best friends.

Chad's parents were not home, so Chad and James had the whole house to themselves. They were on the couch and laughing. But they were not laughing at the video game that they were invested in. They were laughing at Shelly's expense. They had gotten away with landing her in the hospital.

You readers are probably wondering why they would cause pain to their ex-girlfriend. They are rotten to the core. You need more explanation?

"Shelly is so stupid," Chad spat. "I do not know what I ever saw in her."

"She is beautiful on the outside, but she sure is dumb on the inside," James said. "Did I ever tell you that she does not know her multiplication table?"

"No, but I believe it because she is so gullible."

James paused the game and picked up his soda can. "I wish that Shelly would join her family."

There was a loud bang on the front door. James and Chad looked at each other before looking at the door.

"I will get," Chad volunteered.

He got on his feet, shuffled to the door, and opened it. He was greeted by nothing but air...

...and a package on his doorstep.

Chad scooped up the package and read the address. It was addressed to him.

"Weird," he murmured. "I did not order anything."

Suddenly, the box opened, and out popped Slappy.

"It is on the house!" Slappy proclaimed. He snapped his fingers. "Now!"
