I have little ideas for this, but I'm looking forward to it. Also I was trying to avoid using some of these characters, but I couldn't help it. So I hope you all understand.

" Attention students! "

The children perked up upon hearing Alder on the microphone, each one looking a bit confused. Currently, the student a were in the cafeteria, eating breakfast, each one very tired and surprised by the sudden announcement. It had been so long since Alder and Dash had given ANY form of announcements, so this sudden one was so strange to the students.

" Today, we are taking a field trip to a town shrouded in mystery. A place that supposedly is completely accepting of any form of creature. "

Dash continued, causing the students began to chat amongst themselves, all very confused to say the least. A town that was completely accepting towards creatures? As in they could all walk around without having to hide from the humans? A town like that would be very ideal to the children, as they didn't want to be in hiding. But they'd never heard of anywhere like that. A town where humans and creatures lived together peacefully... somewhere like that would be rather interesting to see... or live in.

" You see, Flash himself came to us the night before, and told us he wanted us to explore this town, and see what it's like when humans and creatures finally get along. He felt it was important to know what might one day be, and that not all humans are bad. "

Dash explained, truly shocking the students. Flash himself came to them just to tell them this...?

" And we have a special little child here to help us navigate through this dark little town. "

As Alder said this, the students couldn't help but wonder who he was talking about. Someone here had iced in this town before? As they looked around, they found every student from the school was already in the cafeteria, so it couldn't have been anyone from Scare School. Who could the headmasters possibly know who had lived in a town like this...?

" Good morning everyone! "

A cheery voice called into the mic, shocking everyone with his voice. Especially Thatch, who spat out his drink by just HEARING his voice.

" Richard?! "

" I bet your all wondering where we're going, yes? "

The human said in a sassy voice. Thatch could just picture the human child sitting on the headmasters desk with a leg crossed, one hand supporting him while the other held the mic.

" Well, that's quite simple. We are all heading out to Twilight Town! "

Twilight Town? Wasn't that the place Richard lived in for a while? Why would the human be so excited to be heading back there? Thatch thought he hated that town...

" We're also going to be there for a few days, so be sure to pack everything you need! That is all. "

With that, they heard a click, indicating the mic had been turned off. Many of the students got up and left to pack, while the two groups remained frozen in place. Clearly they were all wondering the same thing.

" Why is Richard coming with us to Twilight Town? "

Mantha asked softly, surprisingly getting a shrug from Zeke.

" He's lived there before, he probably knows the town like the back of his hand. "

" But like, why would he WANT to come? "

Slither asked, blowing the strand of hair from his face.

" He'd be surrounded by creatures the whole time. "

" You also gotta remember, Slither, that Richard is one of those humans that don't have any problems with creatures. "

Thatch said softly before looking down at the table. Despite him saying that, the vampire couldn't help but worry about his human friend. Richard might not have a problem going on this trip, but that was what was bothering Thatch. Richard used to get bullied a lot back in Twilight Town, and the vampire didn't want to see him get hurt. Added to the fact his gang was still having a bit of a tough time accepting the human, well... this might be a long trip for the psychic.

" Well, at the very least we should try to make him feel comfortable on this trip. "

Casper said positively, snapping Thatch back to reality.

" It must be at least a little awkward being in a group of pure creatures. We should make sure he feels like he fits in, and treat him no differently than wed treat each other. Sound good? ... Fatch? "

Fatch's right eye twitched at this, yet he understood why Casper did this. Casper knew the prince had a problem with humans, and could tell that he was less than thrilled about having one travel with him. Admittedly he did consider Richard to be better than most humans he'd met, but he still couldn't change the hate boiling up deep in his heart towards their kind. He couldn't help his hatred towards their kind though. After all... they'd killed his family. Nothing would change that fact...

But, he guessed, for Casper's, Zeke's and Thatch's sake, he'd at least be civil. Slowly he nodded, standing up and heading to the dorm to pack. The rest of the children simply looked at each other before standing up and following.

Short beginning, sorry. Hope it was "adequate" though!
