"TIME SLIP"

Author's note: The following story stars myself because I work well when I put myself in a story. I am in no way insulting Ghostbusters.


"Time Slip" Chapter One

by Bryan O'Connor


It was night, the EGBs; Eduardo, Kylie, Garrett, Roland and Bryan; have just busted what was supposed to be their ghost. They pile into the Ecto-1 and drive off.

At the Firehouse, The EGBS arrive, covered in slime.

Eddie: "Man, i feel like a wet towel!"

Garrett: "You are a wet towel, Eddie."

Eddie lunges at Garrett.

DOWNSTAIRS

Bryan goes downstairs to put the ghost away in the Unit.

Bryan: "There you go dude. Rest in unit."

Suddenly the door slams shut and the lights go out.

Bryan: "What the?!"

Bryan runs to the door and tries to open it but it won't budge. He tries to get Egon on the walkie talkie.

Bryan: "Egon, you there? Egon"?

Walkie talkie: static.

Bryan: "dang!"

Suddenly there is a boom and a and the lights go back on showing nothing left in the basement.

UPSTAIRS

Egon: "Strange."

Ky: "What?"

Egon: "The PKE just took a major jump on the scale and then it was gone.

Garr: "Wait, I thought tonight was our last bust?"

Egon: "It was, but there was something else..Has anyone seen Bryan?"

Roland: "He went downstairs to put the ghost in the Unit. He hasn't come back yet though."

Egon goes to the stairs and calls for Bryan.

Egon: "Bryan, you okay? Bryan?"

There is no answer and Egon worries.

Bryan finds himself in the year 2084.

Bryan: "What the heck? Where am I?"

Bryan looks around and sees he is still in New York, but something is wrong, the buildings are new looking and the sky is perfectly blue.

Bryan: "Wait a minute, it was night last time I checked."

He heads off to 5th Ave. To his surprise there is a new museum there and it is dedicated to the Ghostbusters.

Bryan: "Why would they give a museum to us? I thought New York hated us?"

An old man sees Bryan and goes to him.

Old man: "Hello there, young man. And what might your name be?"

Bryan: "Uh, it's, uh, um, Ian. Ian Malcolm."

Old man: "Well, Ian, I see you're admiring the Ghostbusters Museum, eh?"

Bryan: "Uh, yeah, I was. Why is this museum here? I thought New York hated us.. I mean them?"

Old man: "Didn't they teach you that in school? How could someone not know about the great Ghostbusters? Back in 2001 they saved the whole world from the biggest ghost that ever did come along. They blasted that sucker right out of our solar system. Yep, Eduardo, Kylie, Garrett and Roland really kicked it's butt."

Bryan: "What about Bryan?"

Old man: "Who?"

Bryan: "You know, the 5th and youngest Ghostbuster?"

Old man: "Never heard of him. Well, I've got to go. They want me up at the mayor's to get ready for the Thanksgiving Parade. Good day Ian!"

The old man leaves Bryan alone in front of the museum.

1999 GHOSTBUSTERS HEADQUARTERS: EGON'S LAB

Egon: "...and that's why Bryan isn't here."

Eddie: "So you're sayin' some ghost took him to another time?"

Egon: "Exactly, that's why his bio signs are missing and that there was a Class 12 on the PKE. Class 12's are extremely rare. They only happen every 1200 years or so. It happened tonight and it took Bryan."

2084: INSIDE THE GHOSTBUSTERS MUSEUM

We see Bryan looking through all of the Ghostbusters' history but there is no mention of him at all. Bryan takes out his Journal and pen and starts writing.

BRYAN'S JOURNAL

"Today was a very weird day. First, we bust our last ghost and then I end up in the future and I don't even know what time it is. The only-"

Girl's Voice: "-thing I know is that my watch says 9:00 PM."

Bryan: "What the?!"

Bryan turns around and sees the cutest girl he has ever seen. Blond hair, blue eyes and she wears a jumpsuit identical to his, a perfect fit.

Girl: "Bryan, am I right?"

Bryan: "How did you know my name?"

Girl: "I'm your descendent, Allison O'Connor."

Bryan: "So? How'd you know that i was going to write that?"

Allison holds up a copy of Bryan's journal. Bryan takes it and studies it.

Bryan: "Hmmmmm."

Allison: "It's the same one. The family has kept it and you a secret."

Bryan: "But, why?"

Allison: "We did because you played a vital role to the Ghostbusters, and that's how they defeated the ghost from BSBNSYNC. Without you they would have lost the battle and time would be changed for the worst. Only you had the knowledge on the machine."

Bryan has a confused look on his face.

Bryan: "What machine?"

1999: THE SOON TO BE SITE OF THE GHOSTBUSTERS MUSEUM

THE EGBs ARE LOOKING FOR CLUES TO BRYAN'S DISAPPEARENCE.

Eddie: "Man, this stinks. We have go through garbage and look for some clues to why Bryan disappeared."

Ky: "Well Eddie, Egon said this is where Bryan was showing some faint signs of his presence."

Roland: "Look what I found."

Roland holds up a proton pack and Bryan's wallet.

Suddenly, like Bryan before, the EGBs disappear.
