After fighting their way through the local mall and high school, they're told by Larry that the monsters are coming from a world of pure evil, ruled by an entity called the Lord of Demons, and the only way to stop them is to defeat the Lord himself and take his Monster Token. Once they go through an old cemetery, the four teenagers make their way to a deadly castle full of traps, and team up with a chainsaw welding guy named Billy, before making their way to a secret lab with a Rubik's cube that acts as the key to the Lord of Demons' realm.

The ghost of a janitor then tells the teens it's time to get to school, and it's revealed that everything they went through was a dream, until real UFO's show up above the high school, and the teens prepare for battle yet again.
