New ghouls at school

Frankie could feel her bolts sparking from the exciting news that there were going to be two new students coming to their school. From what she had heard they were brother and sister. Frankie couldn't wait to meet them.

Just ahead Jackson was making his way to school. Frankie ran to catch up with him. "Jackson, wait up."

Jackson looked over his shoulder and smiled. He couldn't get how such an amazing ghouls like Frankie would be his friend but he would never change it for anything. "Morning Frankie, how are you?"

"I'm doing great. Are you excited to meet the new students?" Sparks jumped towards Jackson in her excitement, "I can't wait!"

She was so pretty when she was happy. Jackson hesitated in answering, he had heard something that made him nervous about the exchange students coming to their school. "Jackson are you ok? You look sick." Frankie brought him back to the present.

"I'm just nervous. I heard that the students coming are called Nightmare Monsters."

Frankie looked at him quizzically, "Whats a Nightmare Monster?"

"I asked my mum the same question she said that Nightmare Monsters are the monsters that make normies think that all monsters are evil." Jackson explained trying not to scare her. No way was he going to tell her that Nightmare Monsters were the trouble monsters that killed not only normies but monsters as well.

"Well maybe we can make things better for them and they can make things better for their scaratige." Frankie suggested. Jackson couldn't help but smile, she was always the optimist, its one of the things that made him like her so much.

"I bet your right." Jackson couldn't bring himself to disagree with her.

It was only after second period did anyone actually meet the new students. Fred and Freddina were twins from out of town. When anyone asked where they used to live, they would answer, 'Elm street.' Not that anyghoul knew where that was.

Fred was nice and more than interested in learning about everyone else and their hopes and dreams. But Jackson noticed that Fred has a tendency to stair at Frankie. A flicker of jealousy burned in his chest. But for Frankie he would play nice with the new students.

It was true that Frank and him were no longer dating since she got tired of playing medium between him and Holt but she hadn't yet started dating anyone seriously so he still had a shot at getting her back. He and Holt had been working at getting along in hopes that they could get Frankie back.

Fred walked over to the ghouls during lunch, "Mind if I sit with you?"

The ghouls smiled kindly, "Go right ahead." Clawdeen motioned for him to take a seat.

"How are you and your sister enjoying school so far?" Draculaura asked digging her fangs into her lettuce and tomato sandwich.

"We are feeling very welcome, thank you." Fred answered.

"I don't mean to be rude..." Cleo started.

"Then don't" Clawdeen cut her short.

"But what are you wearing?" Fred looked down at his beige and red stripped shirt, his plain pants and brown shoes. She could have meant the black hat he was wearing.

"Clothes?" Fred answered uncertain of what kind of answer she was looking for.

"Please that was so not even last season." Cleo made a face. "I can understand that you wouldn't know any better being a manster and all but your sister should have done better to help pick out a first day outfit."

"Really Cleo?" Clawdeen asked exasperated with he fashion fanatical friend.

"Sorry ghouls but where we came from fashion really wasn't the biggest thing around." Fred answered.

Frankie, Draculaura and Clawdeen smiled while Cleo looked appauled. "So what are you doing after school Fred? Would you like to go to the maul and maybe stop at the coffin bean?" Frankie offered.

Fred gave her a bright smile, "That would be..."

"He can't." They were all taken by surprised. Freddina stood behind Frankie glaring at her brother. "We still have unpacking to do."

"Oh come on now Nina, we will have plenty of time to unpack." Fred started.

"Do we? Guess who else is transferring?" Freddina asked.

Fred glanced up from Frankie to his sister. "I wouldn't know, we just got here."

"Sander." Freddina answered.

Fred's color paled at the mention of that single name. Frankie looked concerned, "Who's Sander?"

"Someone who has hated my sister and me since we were young. He's the son of the sandman." Fred explained. "But he has no reason to start something here." Fred said giving his sister a meaningful look.

Freddina sighed angrily, "Whatever." She said before walking off.

"Now I know why you had no chance of knowing that what you were wearing was so drab. Just look at what your sister decided to wear." Cleo pointed out changing the subject completely.

The rest looked to where Freddina had gone to dump her lunch and leave. She wore a plaid dress in the same fashion as Frankie's dress but the same beige and red as her brother's with brown knee high, high heel boots.

"Cleo." The three girls said together as they rolled their eyes.

The final bell had just rang, sending all students scrambling to go home. Waiting by her locker Frankie found Freddina and she did not look happy.

Frankie squared her shoulders and made her way over to the new girl. Come hell or high water, she was going to make friends with the ghoul. "Hey there Freddina. Me and the other ghouls are going to the coffin bean with your brother, you know you are more than welcome to come with us." Frankie invited, giving the new girl the most welcoming smile she had.

Freddina simply looked at Frankie before pushing up off the lockers and facing her, "Listen, I don't want you to get friendly with my brother. Don't tell him anything about your dreams or anything about you. You got it?"

Frankie was speechless. She had some monsters not like her at first but she had never had someone hate her so much out right. (Other than Cleo, but shes special). "Why?"

"Just don't. You've been warned."

"Or what?" Frankie couldn't stop the challenge from coming out.

"You'll regret it." Freddina walked off finishing their conversation.
