"I have to come up with a plan to get Miguel back!"
Kay said. Kay noticed a catalogue lying around.

"Must be Rebecca's," Kay said in annoyance. Kay flipped through it.

"Kay, what in the world are you thinking?" Ivy exclaimed, snatching the catalogue.

"There has to be something in there that would make
Miguel notice me." Kay said.

"Kay, Miguel might be a sucker for blonde hair, blue
eyes but he is no Julian." Ivy said.

"You're right, I don't want to be walking around
smirking like this," Kay said, mocking one of
Rebecca's smirks. "And calling Miguel strange names.
Miguel doesn't seem like a 'pookey.'

"No definitely not." Ivy said.

"I'll thank you two not to talk about me behind my
back!" Rebecca said, walking past the room.

"Mother, who were you talking to?" Gwen asked.

"Oh, just Ivy and her new best friend Kay." Rebecca
said.

"What do you mean Kay?" Ethan asked skeptically.

"I'll explain everything later, but right now, I
have a room to reclaim." Ivy said.

"Oh no, here we go again." Gwen said.

"Rebecca!" Ivy yelled.

"I'm just going to ignore that." Rebecca said in
Julian's library.

"Good luck," Julian said sarcastically. He'd been
doing that for years.

"I know what will take my mind off of Ivy," Rebecca
said, pulling Julian into a kiss.

"Reeeebeeecccaaaa!" Ivy screeched at the top of her
lungs.

"That tears it!" Rebecca said. Rebecca stormed out of
the room, dragging Julian behind her. "What!?" Rebecca
yelled, trying to annoy Ivy by showing her how annoyingly
loud she was being. Ethan and Gwen covered
their ears.

"I want my room back!" Ivy screamed. "And I want it
now!" Everyone covered their ears.

"No way!" Rebecca said. "I've just got the place broken in!"

"You took over it the second I was thrown out of the
mansion." Ivy said. "It was mine first so hand it
over."

"Pookey!" Rebecca said, trying to get Julian to
intervene.

"We'll barricade her in it." Julian said. Ivy glared
at him.

"Mother, maybe you should just give Ivy her room
back so we can settle this argument like adults."
Gwen said.

"Gwennie!" Rebecca said. "Pookey!" No one else wanted
to get involved. Everyone heard the door to Ivy's
room slam shut. Ivy's head popped out the door.

"Ha!" Ivy said. Ivy shut the door. Rebecca pounded
on it.

"Ivy you open that door this instant!" Rebecca yelled.

"Go away Rebecca." Ivy said. "You're just wasting your
time because I've already made calls to have this
place redecorated."

"Iiivvvy!" Rebecca whined. "It took me forever to pick
out those colors! Besides I am going to be Mrs. Crane
so that will need to be my room!"

"Get lost Rebecca! Oh take Julian with you!" Ivy
said.

"Pookey!" Rebecca whined.

"Let's get out of here for a few hours." Julian
said.

"But she-" Rebecca said.

"Come on," Julian said.

"Alright," Rebecca said in defeat.

"Ivy one, Rebecca zero." Ivy said. As soon as Ivy
picked up her phone. "Hello, I'd like to have my
locks changed...."

Hecuba laughed from her layer.

"Oh this is going to be too good." Hecuba said. Hecuba
mixed another potion for Theresa to have ready when
they came back. Ivy laughed after she hung up the
phone.

A few hours later, Julian and Rebecca returned. Julian
tried to unlock the door.

"Huh, my key doesn't seem to be working," Julian
said. "Do you have yours?" Julian asked.

"Yeah," Rebecca said, digging through her purse.
Rebecca put her key into the lock but it wouldn't fit.
Rebecca turned to Julian with dread. "Pookey, Ivy
had the locks changed." Rebecca said.

"Oh no," Julian said, cursing repetitively. Rebecca
noticed something in the yard. She went over to see
what it was.

"Juuliaan!" Rebecca yelled.

"What!?" Julian exclaimed, starting to get a headache
from all the screaming he had heard that day. Julian
walked over. Rebecca pointed to the ground. "What's
all this stuff?"

"Ivy packed our bags and threw our stuff out on the
lawn." Rebecca said.

"Ivy is in so much trouble." Julian said.

"Yeah, yeah but how are we going to get back in?"
Rebecca asked.

"I don't know." Julian said.

"Wait- I think I left the window in MY room unlocked."
Rebecca said.

"You mean I'm going to have to climb into my own home?" Julian exclaimed.

"Hey do you want to sleep out here tonight?" Rebecca
asked.

"Wait," Julian said. Julian found a tent packed with
the items with a sign that read 'get a room.' "Ivy
has sunk to a new low." Julian said. Rebecca looked
at the sign attatched to the tent.

"Julian, you don't expect me to sleep in that thing
do you?" Rebecca said.

"Ivy probably expects us to run to a hotel but I can't
wait to see the look on her face when we show her up
at her own game." Julian said.

"Julian a hotel is starting to sound like a good idea." Rebecca said.

"Hey I was on the road for months last year and it
didn't kill me." Julian said.

"But sweetie can't we please go to a hotel?" Rebecca
asked.

"No, we're going to rub this in Ivy's face when she
wakes up in the morning and realizes we're still here." Julian said,
showing Rebecca the sign.

"What are we supposed to do?" Rebecca asked. "Tell
scary stories all night and have a campfire in the
front yard?" Rebecca asked sarcastically.

"I think I have a lighter around here somewhere,"
Julian said.

"Me and my big mouth." Rebecca said. Julian grabbed
some sticks and started to build a fire in the front
yard.

"Becky why don't you set up the tent while I get the
fire started?" Julian asked.

"But my manicure!" Rebecca whined.

Meanwhile, Fox showed up with Whitney. They had decided
to hang out at the Cranes indoor pool for
a while.

"Is this some kind of twisted game?" Fox asked. Whitney struggled
to keep from laughing.

"Don't expect your key to work," Rebecca said. Rebecca
kicked one of the tent poles in frustration
when she couldn't figure out how to put it together.

"Stupid tent!"

"Let's go to a late movie or something and come back
later." Whitney said.

"Good idea," Fox said. Fox called Ivy on his cellphone and let her
know to have the door unlocked
for him later. Fox and Whitney walked off.

"The evil," Charity said, spacing out at the Lopez
Fitzgerald house.

"What evil?" Miguel asked.

"It has to be stopped." Charity said. MIguel and
Charity were unaware that Theresa was once headed
for the door in a trance like state, with a butcher
knife in hand!

Julian and Rebecca had eventually got the tent set up.

"See this won't be so bad," Julian said.

"Well, maybe not." Rebecca said.

Soon Rebecca and Julian were telling scary stories
in the tent.

"And then the butcher knife maniac's shadow appeared
on the wall of the campers tent." Julian said. Rebecca
looked up and whimpered, to see a shadow carrying a
butcherknife, unaware that it was Theresa under
Hecuba's spell.

"Come on, it's not that scary!" Julian said, laughing
as Rebecca whimpered, his back was turned to Theresa's
shadow. Rebecca was too busy staring at the shadow
to pay attention to Julian. Julian sneaked up behind
her and whispered in her ear.

"And then, the campers woke up the next morning to
find a huge gash on the side of the tent. Well, they
would have, if they woke up, because all of their
throats had been slit-" Julian said. Rebecca screamed
hysterically.

"Come on, it wasn't that scary," Julian said.

"J-J-J-J-J-Julian!" Rebecca sreamed, pointing to the
wall of the tent.

"What?" Julian asked. Julian turned around. Rebecca
looked again, Theresa's shadow was no longer there.

"But I saw the butcher knife maniacs shadow like those
campers in the story-" Rebecca said lamely, feeling
like an idiot.

"I have some ghost stories lined up if that's not too
scary for you," Julian said sarcastically. Rebecca hit
him with a pillow. "Come on, you can't stay mad at me
for long." Julian said. Julian and Rebecca started to
make out in the tent and didn't notice the knife
sticking through as their tent was being slashed.

"Its getting a little cold in here," Julian said,
under the sheets.

"Yeah, it is," Rebecca said. Julian and Rebecca looked
up and threw their arms around each other screaming
hysterically as they noticed the tent had been
slashed.

Meanwhile, the doorknob on Ivy's bedroom door began
to turn...

Hecuba watched from her lair.

"Ivy is going to get the shock of her life!" Hecuba
said.
