    With Agent Dark and the Tancredi Group lying low, the Castle sisters are at a loss for clues to their nefarious plans and are facing an even greater threat: boredom.

      The Invasion of the Imaginary Friends - Jason Krumbine

      CHAPTER ONE

      Okay, so it wasn't an actual monster? Summer Castle asked.

      What? No. Her older sister shook her head. You could see the seams on the costume.

      "It was a costume?"

      Of course it was a costume, Summer, Faith replied. She stopped and looked over her shoulder at the blond nine year old behind her. There's no such thing as giant lizard monsters.

      Summer frowned, squinting her light blue eyes. Are you sure about that?

      Faith stared at her. "Am I sure that there aren’t any giant lizard monsters in the real world?"

      That's what I asked.

      Yeah, I heard you ask it. Faith shook her head. I just can't believe it. Faith Castle was twelve years old with light brown hair pulled into a ponytail, a smattering of freckles across her cheeks and an IQ of 160. "It was a man in a monster costume."

      There was a loud sigh from behind her. You keep saying that, Summer replied. But I don't believe it.

      How can you not believe it? Faith asked. The back of his costume was practically falling off at the end of the movie!

      Summer thought about it for a moment, trying to recall the scene Faith was talking about. She shook her head again. Nope. Sorry.

      I can't believe this, Faith muttered. She resumed her crawl through the narrow air vent.

      The girls were dressed in matching black jumpsuits with dark gray utility belts around their waists. There was a muffled echo as they made their way through the air ducts.

      Well, it seemed very realistic, Summer continued.

      A giant lizard monster attacking Tokyo?

      Yes.

      Realistic?

      Very.

      Faith paused again and looked back at her sister. We were just in Tokyo last year with Uncle Jacen.

      I remember that.

      Do you happen to remember that the place didn't look like it had been trashed by a giant lizard monster?

      "Well, obviously, it didn’t happen recently. Summer rolled her eyes. The movie was in black and white. Clearly, it happened, like, back when Uncle Jacen was our age."

      Faith shook her head. Don't say that to Uncle Jacen. They had color movies in the eighties.

      I have no idea what you're talking about.

      Faith continued crawling, pausing to check the schematics on the smartphone that was strapped to her wrist. My point is, last night's movie wasn't a documentary on how a real giant lizard monster attacked Tokyo. It's a fifty-eight year old science fiction film that Uncle Jacen's using in an attempt to indoctrinate us into geek culture.

      Your tone makes it sound like a bad thing, Summer said. But I don't actually know what 'indoctrinate' means. So I’m completely lost.

      Do you pay attention to the vocab words that Uncle Jacen gives us?

      No, Summer admitted. Not really. Have I told you how boring reading is?

      Repeatedly, Faith replied with a sigh.

      They crawled a few more feet in silence.

      It was just a man in a costume? Summer asked.

      Yep.

      What about when the monster was going around and stomping through the city?

      It was a tiny model the filmmakers made of Tokyo, Faith explained.

      So the city wasn’t real, either?

      Well, not when the monster was stomping through it.

      Summer thought about it for a minute. I don't know. It doesn't seem very believable.

      It doesn't seem very believable to you that a movie about a giant lizard monster isn’t real? Faith asked.

      Everybody seemed very sincere when the lizard monster was killing them.

      Just out of idle curiosity, Faith asked. "Did you think the movie with the talking birds was about real talking birds?"

      Summer gave her sister a 'who are you kidding' look. "Obviously it wasn’t. It was a cartoon, Faithy. I mean, come on."

      Right, Faith said. My mistake. What was I thinking?

      Summer shrugged awkwardly. I don't know. I can't read minds. Although, that would be a pretty cool super power. You should figure out a way for us to read minds.

      I already have that on my to-do list, Faith replied.

      Seriously?

      Seriously.

      That is awesome.

      But there's a possibility that we might end up frying whosever brain we're trying to read.

      Summer paused. Really?

      Yeah, Faith said. Really. It's a radioactive thing.

      I thought we weren't supposed to be playing around with radioactive stuff.

      Well, technically, Faith said. I'm not 'playing' with it.

      I don't think that's what Uncle Jacen meant...

      Come on. We're almost there. There's a junction ladder coming up in a few feet.

      Summer paused to scratch her tiny nose before following after her sister. "You know, Faithy, when Uncle Jacen said he wanted us to take a closer look at ChemLabs, I think he meant we were supposed to do it with him."

      Well, then maybe he shouldn’t have gone off to Europe for the weekend for that science thing.

      It's called the Scientific Advancement of Laterally Accepted Thinking, Summer said.

      "That you know. But you can't remember what 'indoctrinate' means?"

      I had to listen to him give his speech, like, a billion times, Summer explained. It kind of got stuck in my head.

      Faith rolled her eyes. Whatever.

      Hey, you're not upset that he left us behind, are you?

      Why would I be upset?

      Because he's in Italy and you've always wanted to go to Italy, Summer said. She paused before adding, And last night you said that you were kind of upset that he didn't bring us with him.

      You know what? Let's go back to talking about the giant lizard monster from the movie, Faith suggested.

      I don't think Uncle Jacen's going to be particularly happy once he finds out that we came here without him.

      He'll be less upset once we have all the information we need, Faith said.

      Which is...?

      That part I haven't figured out yet, Faith admitted.

      Faithy!

      We’re not gonna get in trouble, she assured her little sister.

      "We are going to get in sooo much trouble."

      Look, obviously, this wasn’t my first plan, Faith said. I was supposed to be able to just hack back into ChemLabs servers, but somebody closed them off from the Internet. They’ve got no active outside data links, so there’s nothing to hack.

      Summer frowned. Honestly, everything you just said sounded like, ‘Blah, blah, I’m so smart, blah, blah.’ But, I could tell from your tone that whatever it was you were saying, wasn’t good.

      It’s not, Faith agreed. If I can’t hack in, we can’t figure what ChemLabs is up to.

      Which is probably why Uncle Jacen wanted us to wait for him, Summer
