Hello everyone! This is it, my own version of Hotel Transylvania 3 Summer Vacation is here! But before that, this is the Puppy short fans have wanted me to do. It will take time to redoing the third movie with one chapter at a time, so please have patience.
If fans of Dracula and Ericka read this, don't criticize me please. I just don't want to have my OCs erased or wasted away after all that hard work from the past few years from Hotel Transylvania 2. Truthfully, I hate Ericka a lot nor do I really like her appearance, they probably designed her after Betty Boop and Popeye mixture. I wish she could've been designed to look like and voiced by Jaimie Alexander when it rumored she would do it back then, cause I found Jaimie attractive and make a better love interest back then. I'm also disappointed in Abraham's appearance as well, especially with his body in a machine. I wish a Van Helsing descendant should've been a rival for Dracula's love interest that would've been Mina Harker's descendant. But I created another OC to make Ericka happy and not cause drama, although I wish Ericka remained the villain because she's not attractive and is so annoying and ruined their family vacation, including trying to murder the only parent Mavis had left that would make her an orphan. Who would want to have Ericka for a wife or stepmother after all the damage she had caused? Apologies for all that ranting. It's gonna be extremely tense with Elisa and Dracula having trouble in paradise, along with evil human-vampire hybrids that are more dangerous than dumb Van Helsing. I don't think Dracula's friends and family would be happy campers over Ericka coming between him and Elisa, but Corbin will make his return and what he, along with the Harker family, have to do with their appearances in the story. Bram Stoker's Dracula will be a major plotline in the story.
PS, I apologize for those updates and changes.
Thank you, and enjoy! Warning for spoilers.
One night in Hotel Transylvania, Dennis was bouncing off the walls, or rather levitating with his vampire powers, around a baffled Mavis and Johnny. He wanted to get a puppy as a pet so badly.
"Puppy, puppy, puppy, puppy!" he cheered, coming behind his parents to grasp their heads closer to his tiny head. "Mommy, Daddy, can we please get a puppy?" Dennis asked hopefully.
"Uhhh…" Johnny had no idea how to answer.
"I'm so sorry, honey," Mavis refused calmly. "But taking of a puppy is a lot of responsibility."
"What if we got you a little goldfish instead?" suggested Johnny.
Wailing, a dismayed Dennis transformed into a bat and flew off.
A little later, in Melany's bedroom, a pregnant Elisa was spending time with her youngest daughter, Melany, having pretend tea and cake over a tea party. All of a sudden, Dennis flashed burst into the room in a trail of green mist. Elisa and Melany were startled by the young bat's appearance.
"Nana Ellie! Nana Ellie!" Dennis squealed, changing back to normal and landed on the table, knocking over a few plastic teacups. "Can I have a puppy?" he asked.
"A puppy?" Elisa was taken aback.
"Mommy and Daddy won't get me one, but you can get me a puppy, right?" Dennis asked, hopefully.
"I don't want a puppy, they're messy and loud!" whined Melany. "Even you, since you ruined my tea set!"
"Melany, please!" Elisa held up a hand to stop her daughter's ranting. Then she told Dennis sincerely, "I'm sorry, Dennis. We can't get you a puppy. It's a lot of responsibility."
Wailing, poor Dennis changed back into a bat and flew out of the window, followed by Elisa trying to stop him.
"Dennis, wait!" Elisa halted at the window when she realized she couldn't climb out to catch him since she had no powers. "Ugh, I wish I could fly like a bat," she sighed.
"I WANT A PUPPY!" Dennis's sobs echoed throughout the entire hotel and into the night.
As Dennis sat sadly on the balcony railing, Dracula happened to be passing by and noticed his crying grandson, stopping to comfort him.
"Dennis! What is up my cute little curly haired tarantula?" he asked, playfully tickling the bat boy's curly red locks.
"I want a puppy, Papa Drac," Dennis explained sadly, and then an idea came to him. If the other adults won't get him a puppy, than his grandpa will. "Wait a second." He grasped Dracula's face and leaned in close to his face. "You could get it for me, Papa Drac!"
"Oh no, no, no, no." Dracula protested, shaking his hands. "I could never..."
Then, Dennis looked up at his grandfather, giving him the pouty bat face. Dracula gasped. He couldn't resist that cute, tearful, bottom-lip quivering, sad face of his grandson. He started to think it over, but it was a tough decision for Dracula.
Later on, a melancholy Dennis played with his toys with Johnny on the floor. Mavis and Elisa sat on the couch reading. Mavis read a book about cruise ships. Elisa read the newspaper about monsters being mysteriously attacked by an unknown organization. Melany was on the floor too, but she was watching the Emoji Movie on TV. A knock was then heard at the door. Everyone looked up.
Dracula opened up and peeked his head inside. "Oh... heh-heh. Hi, I-" But before he could explain his presence, he got shoved into the room with extreme force, crashing into the wall.
A gigantic bluish black dog, slightly resembling a pug Rottweiler mix, burst into the room, destroying the front door and wall in the process. The puppy panted loudly, his large tongue drooled on the floor. Everyone gawked at the huge dog before them.
"Eh, surprise." Dracula grinned sheepishly, tangled in the damaged furniture.
After a moment of awkward staring, Dennis's face lit up and he leaped forward to hug his brand new puppy. "PUPPYYYYY!"
"Dad!" Mavis glared at her father, angered that he went behind her back to get her son a puppy against her wishes.
"Dracula!" Elisa glared at her husband, what she felt was the same as her daughter's.
"What? Every monster needs to have a cute little puppy," Dracula said, shrugging.
"LITTLE?!" Elisa retorted, gesturing to the giant puppy. "Look at him, he's huge!"
The puppy barked and hopped around Dennis, creating a mess around the small room. He licked the little boy but it caught him in its mouth, and released him with its tongue rolling out like a long carpet. Mavis, Johnny and Elisa stared in surprise.
"I love my puppy!" Dennis cheered happily, not even bothered by the dog slime.
"Now naming such a magnificent creature could be quite challenging." Dracula instructed, while Dennis rode on the dog's back as the dog sniffed the floor and walked past him. "Ganges-Khan, Kujo…"
"Tinkles!" Dennis suggested, stating the obvious of why choosing such a name.
"Yes." Dracula didn't find the name amusing, at first. His eyes snapped open. "Wait, what?"
Mavis gasped, seeing that Tinkles, the new puppy's name, had urinated and rushed over in a panic. "My living room!" she exclaimed.
"Aagh! Not on Melany!" Elisa stood up, freaking out, and ran over to save Melany and the TV from the urinating dog.
Johnny remained in the kneeling position, while Dracula took this as the opportunity to run.
"Okay, well, bye-bye!" he said quickly.
"Dad!" Mavis yelled.
"Dracula!" Elisa shouted just as she pops back into view to announce his punishment. "You're sleeping in your coffin tonight!"
The following night, Dracula was snoring peacefully in his coffin.
Elisa was putting her jacket on to go out. She raised the coffin lid to speak to her husband. "Dracula, I'm taking Melany to school. Then I have to go to the doctor to check on our baby," she gestured to her pregnant belly, "and then I have to run a few errands."
"Okay, Blood Ruby," Dracula replied, sleepily.
The coffin closed and the sound of the door closing came after, but not entirely.
"Dad, we have to run out. Could you watch Tinkles for us?" Mavis asked, from outside the coffin.
"Sure, Honey Spider, okay. Yes," Dracula groggily agreed and went back to sleep.
"Bye, Tinkles!" Dennis said, before the sound of the door closed followed after.
No sooner had his family gone, Dracula heard Tinkles' whining and squeaky barking, and a loud scratching on his coffin. Dracula's eyes snapped open. Frowning, he opened the coffin and saw Tinkles' eyes. Scoffing, Dracula closed the coffin and went back to sleep.
Just then, his coffin starting shaking violently, cause Tinkles pawed at the coffin and bounced wildly, signaling he wanted to go out. When the shaking stopped, Dracula proceeded to go back to sleep. The puppy sniffed the floor outside and whined.
Dracula's eyes flew open, realizing what the dog was going to do. He popped out of his coffin like a jack in the box. "Hey! Tinkles, no! Stop!" he screamed, frantically waving his arms.
Tinkles had his leg raised, ready to pee, until he heard the vampire stop him.
Taking the dog outside so he could pee, Dracula tapped his foot impatiently, frowning. When Tinkles finished going to the bathroom, he turned to his master.
"Happy?" Dracula asked, but Tinkles lowered his body, giving him the puppy dog eyes. "Argh, what is it now?" The puppy opened his huge jaws. "You're hungry? Unbelievable." Groaning, Dracula left to go get the dog some food.
Returning a few minutes later, Dracula brought back a wheel barrel with a huge pile of different kinds of meat. "Lord of Darkness to doggie caterer. What has happened to my life?" he mumbled.
Tinkles began jumping excitedly for the food.
"Ohh, you like this, huh? Now, who wants to sit..." The second Dracula took up the piece of meat, Tinkles immediately sat down. Noticing that if the puppy heard instructions or tricks, he obeyed. This made Dracula smirk, so every time he instructed, the puppy followed his orders. "Down. Up. Sit. Roll over. Up. Shake. Down. Roll over. Sit. Up. Roll over. Shake. Down. Roll over. Sit. Speak!"
"Hi, how are you?" Tinkles spoke in a grown man's voice.
Dracula's eyes widened in surprise at this.
Afterword, Dracula returned to the lobby's front desk where he helped the guests check in. "Yes, here is your room key. Enjoy your stay." He said to the brain monster as he gave him the key, and the brain took it before leaving to go to his room.
A familiar whining made Dracula grow increasingly annoyed. Tinkles stood behind him, panting happily. "Shh, I said you could stay with me as long as you behave." The puppy frowned sadly to behave himself.
A witch maid came over to report, "Sir, the Bones family reunion is here to check in."
This alerted Tinkles as he rose up when he saw the skeleton family come in.
"Yes, wonderful. I was expecting..." This snapped Dracula in realization that the Bones family are made of bones, which is what dogs liked the most, and what's worse is that the whole skeleton family entered the lobby. "Oh no." The vampire felt drool dropping on his head. He took out a steak to try to tame Tinkles. "Stay!" he pleaded.
But Tinkles couldn't resist a bone, so he crashed through the front desk, much to Dracula's horror. A skeleton screamed as the monster dog rushed over to the Bones family and pounced on them.
From outside the hotel, the screams of the Bones family and furniture broken or trashed could be heard.
A little later, Mavis and Johnny entered the lobby with Dennis, followed by Elisa and Melany. Elisa had asked Johnny to carry two bags of groceries that she bought, so he struggled to squeeze through the revolving door to get inside.
"Did you have a fun day at school, honey?" Mavis asked her son.
"Yeah, but I missed Tinkles," Dennis answered.
"I hope Drac is not having any trouble with the dog," Elisa said.
"Maybe he peed in Daddy's bedroom," Melany joked.
Then Johnny gasped in surprise at what he saw in the lobby and dropped the grocery bags.
"What is it, Johnny?" Mavis asked.
"Oh my goodness!" Elisa gasped in horror at the state of the lobby.
Looking up, Mavis gasped at the trashed up messy lobby with horror.
Skeletons were missing pieces of their bodies, crying out for help or were supposedly injured. The lobby was damaged or thrown about in the process of Tinkles' playful attack on the Bones family. Dracula was busy picking up parts of the skeletons' bodies.
"Dad, what happened?" Mavis asked.
Frowning, Dracula used a skeleton hand to point at the culprit. "Tinkles happened."
Tinkles was busy chewing on at least half a dozen of the skeleton family, some of them escaping from a few chews, shouting, "I'm free!"
"Ugh! This can't get any worse," Elisa sighed. Just then, she felt an agonizing pain in her stomach. She didn't know it was either the stress of discovering Tinkles had trashed the lobby or... the pain grew faster and it got worse. It took only a moment for her to realize she had gone into labor. "Aaaagh!" she screamed, gripping her large belly.
"Mom, what's wrong?" Mavis was concerned.
"The baby is coming!" her stepmother cried.
Elisa collapsed to her knees, clutching her stomach, and started whining in pain. Johnny, Mavis and Dracula rushed over to her side. Dennis and Melany grew scared of what just happened, wondering if Elisa was going to be alright.
"My baby is coming?" Dracula's expression displayed a mixture of worry and surprise at the same time.
However, Mavis was totally baffled. "That's impossible, the baby wasn't due for another week."
But Dracula didn't know what to do in a situation like this; tend to Elisa and be there for his wife or finish cleaning the mess Tinkles had made.
Reading the conflict in her father's eyes, Mavis told him, "I'll take care of the mess, Dad. You should be there for Mom."
The vampire's eyes lit up with instant relief. "Thank you, Mavey."
Sometime later in the hotel's delivery room, a baby boy was crying after recently being born, wrapped in a green blanket by Dr. Gillman. The baby had Dracula's facial features and a curl of black hair, but his eyes were green like Elisa.
The infant was suddenly taken by a delighted Dracula, who started yelling happily and did a little victory dance. "Look, I have a son! A son!" He held the baby up in the air for his family to gaze upon, like Rafiki did to baby Simba in the Lion King.
Mavis and Johnny shed tears of joy, proud of the new addition to the family.
Although Melany had some disappointment into hearing that she has a baby brother. "I wanted a baby sister, so I could be a big sister like Mavis!"
Smiling calmly, Elisa gestured her daughter to come over. "Who says that you can't be like that with him."
The second Melany crawled upon the bed where her mother lay resting, she watched as her father handed her newborn baby brother gently back to Elisa, who tenderly nuzzled his head with her own to cease his crying. And once Melany first saw her new little brother smiling up at her, she was instantly won over at the idea of having a baby brother.
Sitting beside Elisa, Dracula couldn't hold back the tears any longer as he gazed at his wife, little girl, and infant son with joy and love in his heart.
But the family's happiness came to an abrupt end when the door burst open, or rather the wall exploded. Tinkles barked excitedly as an ecstatic Dennis rode on his back like a horse. Everyone's jaws fell open as they gawked at them.
"Hi, Nana Ellie!" Dennis waved at his grandmother. "Tinkles wanted to meet my new uncle."
"Dennis, I thought I told you Tinkles needs to stay outside to..." Mavis didn't finish her lecture.
Suddenly, Tinkles lifted a leg up in the air which told everybody the dog
"TINKLES! NO!" Dracula screamed, frantically trying to usher the giant puppy outside with Mavis and Johnny's help, but it was too late.
The sounds of Dracula, Mavis and Johnny screaming as the puppy had urinated all over them caused Elisa to look away in disgust, except a snickering Melany and her new baby brother, who started laughing for the first time.
"Ugh. I need a vacation," sighed a grumpy Dracula, right in front of the words THE END.
