Romance in the Workplace
Castle Duckula, home of the last of the ferocious clan of vampire ducks: Count Duckula! As the werewolves and vampires come out to play, something sinister lurks within these castle walls...
"Oh dear, please help us!" Nanny clucked as she ran through the long passageway. Igor poked his head out from the library, curious as to what had bothered the hen this time.
"Nanny, what is the matter?" the butler asked as he stepped into the passageway. The housekeeper stopped in her tracks; and jumped into the arms of her saviour. Needless to say, the butler was not amused.
"Oh Mr. Igor, please help!" Nanny wailed, ignorant of the fact the vulture found it very hard to carry her in his arms. Igor sighed in defeat when he realized what had scared her.
"Nanny, how many times must I inform you that those spiders are completely harmless? They are also more scared of you than they are of them. Not to mention the fact that they almost microscopic in size..."
"Oh Mr. Igor, you and your silly games..." Nanny chuckled, "Those poor little spiders didn't scare me. It was--erm..." as the plump hen tried to jog her memory, ignorant of the fact Igor had dropped her when his arms couldn't carry her anymore. The vulture muttered under his breath that the housekeeper definitely needs to lose a lot of weight. If Nanny had heard him, she would've clobbered him; after she realized what he had said minutes later.
"Oh, right! Now, I remember!" Nanny smiled proudly, "I had wanted to call you, Mr. Igor, because Towser somehow got stuck in the chimney while he was trying to eat Santa Clause"
"Did Towser get hold of him?" Igor beamed hopefully. His hopes were shattered when Nanny shook her head in reply.
"Poor Towser got stuck up in t'at chimney"
"Come Nanny; let's get that lupine out of his prison"
"I thought we we're 'elpin' Towser." Nanny wore a confused expression as she stared at the elderly vulture. Igor buried his face with his hands.
"Lupines are werewolves. Oh, never mind. Come with me, Nanny."
The servants of the castle entered the room where Towser was located, not knowing that were being watched by a pair of eyes that belong to the world's strongest vampire.
"What are those two up to?" Duckula frowned to himself. He was about to turn his heel to leave, but his curiosity begged for him to check out what was going on.
As the young duck leaned his ear against the door to eavesdrop, his eyes widened in shock.
"Oh Mr Igor, you're almost there!" Nanny squealed as Igor grunted. Count Duckula felt his cheeks burn with embarrassment. Are those two...no way!
"Nngh, I will feel this in the morning!" Igor groaned. Count Duckula's face blanched. Yes, they are doing it.
The vegetarian vampire pinched his cheeks, making sure he wasn't dreaming this entire incident up. He heard more feminine squeals and manly grunts. No, he wasn't dreaming.
"I can't believe it! Igor and Nanny..." Duckula tried to rack his mind over this new fact.
"What a minute...that explains everything! Like how they would always hang out with one another, never seemed to mind when they had to pretend to be husband and wife, how they stand up for one another most of the time and the fact Igor never tried to get rid of her. Why didn't I notice this before?"
"Duckula, you are being ridiculous! They are only good friends. This is all just a misunderstanding. Puh-zackly, a misunderstanding!" the vampire duck reassured himself as he tried to open the door. Since it was locked, the young count decided to teleported himself into the room. What he saw next shocked him greatly! Igor was lying on top on Nanny. The duck didn't even notice the werewolf that was lying on the floor next to the elderly fowls.
Igor and Nanny both wore embarrassed looks on their faces, but for totally different reasons. They thought their master wore that shocked expression because of Towser. They got into this strange position when Igor pulled Towser so hard out that he lost his footing and fell on top of Nanny.
"Igor, Nanny, I have only one thing to say...ARGH!!!!!"
As the entire country of Transylvania shook as an angry vampire's screams filled the air, I fear I must bid ye farewell.
Goodnight out there... whatever you are!
The End
