Ricky has to take pictures of the children who are washing cars for the 'car washing campaign'. In other words, Ricky gets another chance. She gives Ricky her father's expensive camera and says if anything happens to it, Ricky is off the paper. She says there is an emergency and she needs Ricky. The next morning, Ricky gets a call from Tasha. She calls Ricky a creep and says he is off the paper. The can slips from David's grasp and falls on Natasha's keyboard. Ricky says he wants it and both of them start snatching it from each other. Wart blocks Ricky's way and David says he wants the can of Pepsi. He was about to get a Pepsi can from the refreshments desk, when two of his bullies, David and Wart, come along. A few days before the school newspaper got published, Ricky was in the newspaper room. Ricky's only friend is a girl, named Iris who is new. The head of the school newspaper is an eighth-grader named Tasha McClain. He is on the school newspaper, which is called Harding Herald. He has four main bullies who are eighth-graders named Wart, Brenda, David and Jared. Six grader Ricky Beamer is having a miserable life: tortured and harassed by his schoolmates and being called various ignoble names. However, when he learns that he will be the leader of the Creeps and fed up with his classmates' lack of gratitude for his troubles, he lets Creeps succeed in their plan and voluntarily becomes a Creep himself.
Ricky, the protagonist, tries to save his classmates at first, despite the fact that they bully him constantly. Their goal is to transform everyone in the school into a Creep and eventually do the same to the entire world. The Creeps are a race of alien lizard beings who are the main antagonist in the Goosebumps book Calling All Creeps. ~ Ricky's last words before turning into a Creep
