June looked anxious. “Ms. Oracle, you need to be careful when you go out these days. Some of the more extreme fans are talking about ambushing you in real life. I’m worried they might try to hurt you, so maybe you should just stay home and lay low for now.”

Venus casually scrolled on her phone, completely unbothered.

It wasn’t just funeral portraits-there were also photoshopped ghost pictures of her everywhere.

“Is that all?” She looked calm. “They don’t even know what a real ghost looks like. At least make it scarier if you’re going to scare people. This is child’s play.”

June couldn’t help but laugh at her comments. “That’s not the point! Aren’t you worried Rayne’s fans might come after you in person?”

“If they want to come, let them. I’ll show them what a real ghost looks like.”

Venus said this as she set down the groceries.

It was obvious Rayne was the one who stirred his fans up to target her.

They really would show up to cause trouble, and she had a hunch that it would be tonight.

“When it gets dark, just go to your room and sleep. No matter what you hear, don’t come out.”.Venus gave June a heads-up.

June was still worried. “I’m not afraid of those fans. If they hit you, I’ll fight back!”

ת

Venus smiled. “Once it’s dark, I’ll invite some wandering ghosts to the house to keep them busy. We don’t even have to get involved ourselves.”

June’s eyes lit up and she started laughing. “That’s right! Why didn’t I think of that? That sounds like so much fun!

“If only Florian were here. The way he died was pretty gruesome and terrifying. He could scare them half to death!”

“He hasn’t come back yet?”

June answered honestly, “He came back around noon but said he had to go home and spy on someone, so he took off again.”

After that, the two of them ate their fill, happily finishing a whole pot of mushroom chowder.

Venus hopped on her motorized tricycle and took a ten minute spin around the neighborhood, finding four or five wandering ghosts by the lake.

She asked for their help to scare those crazy fans a little

Having gotten used to Florian, June wasn’t that afraid of other ghosts. She insisted on staying up to watch the show that night.

Venus and June grabbed a watermelon, turned off the lights, and watched the living room from the second

floor.

As night fell, sure enough, the group of extreme fans showed up at the door with rotten eggs.

“Rayne said Venus lives here.”

“What a weirdo. Only a crazy person would live in a haunted house. This woman really is something else.”

“She made Rayne lose his ambassador spot. We’re here to get revenge for Rayne!”

“That’s right! We’ll make sure she learns what happens when she crosses Rayne!”

“There were more than ten of them, mostly teenage girls Only the leader looked a bit older, maybe in her

20s.

“Remember, as soon as we get inside, find Venus and throw all the rotten eggs at her ugly face!

.

“You, take the most embarrassing photo you can and send it to Rayne.”

The leader, a girl named Pauline, gave her orders. “We have to get back at Venus for Rayne, so she never dares to mess with him again!”

“Yeah!” everyone cheered.

Pauline kicked open the half-shut door and led the fangirls inside with a rush.

“Where’s the light? Why isn’t there any power?”

“Forget it, Venus is probably asleep by now. Let’s just find her!”

Venus watched as they searched downstairs with their phone flashlights.

Five wandering ghosts hung from the crystal chandelier waiting for her signal.

The fans barged in, tearing up the sofa cushions and smashing everything on the tables.

Venus didn’t bother to hold back. She snapped her fingers.

The five ghosts let out creepy grins and leaped down at once.

They followed behind the group of girls in silence. As the group wandered around, they suddenly realized something was off.

Their group was suddenly too big.

“Why does it feel like there are more of us than there should be?

“Everyone, let’s do a headcount.”

Pauline shone her phone flashlight on the people behin her.

Everyone crowded together. It looked like there were over 20 people.

But they only brought 17 tonight.

As the count reached 17, Pauline finally relaxed-until a old voice came from the back of the group.

“Eighteen!”

Pauline froze. So did everyone else.

“Nineteen!”

“Twenty!”

“Twenty-one!”

“Twenty-two!”

Somehow, five extra “people” appeared.

Pauline’s face changed. “Twenty-two? What’s going on? Who brought extra people?”

“Pauline, you organized this. None of us invited anyone else.”

One of the younger girls got scared. “Why do their voices sound so weird? It’s like … they’re not even from our world. It’s really creepy.”
