So SamWolf NightLover was the only one who voted during the poll. So not only did her vote win, but since she is the only one who voted, she gets to choose which stories she wants to read first! Like this one, for example. She voted for this one, but the ones she didn't vote for, she can chose which order I type them in. Hope you like this Sam!

P.S. Little fact here. Fatch's birthday was actually way back in January. Same day as mine, as it seemed fitting for him too. But I was working on another story at the time, and I ended up forgetting about it. It works out just fine now, but just thought I'd explain that a little. ^_^"


Casper smiled softly as he ate his lunch, looking around the cafeteria out of pure interest. It had been a little bit since everyone had came back from break, and they were all enjoying being back together again. That, and it was pretty cool having Zeke here in Scare School now. Although, apparently, Zeke liked picking fights with the professor Burns and Frankengymteacher. But Casper guessed he understood. Zeke knew considerably more about humans than professor Burns, and he liked when Zeke challenged Frankengymteacher to a strength contest. Zeke always own, and it was funny that such a skinny tiny alien could beat a Frankenthing.

The ghost finished up his food and rose from his chair, taking his tray with him. As he went to put his tray away, he saw Fatch and Thatch sitting on the corner of the room, talking about something. Thatch's face was bright red, as if the topic was embarrassing for him. Casper really wanted to know what was going on, but he knew that Fatch would know he was there. Even IF he turned invisible. So he decided it would be... beneficial... to stay away.

Casper turned and walked out into the hallway. He was beginning to wonder what he could do today. It was such a slow day...

He'd love to go visit Jimmy, but it was still in the middle of the school day. He began to wonder how his human friend was getting along with Richard. It had been a while since Casper had seen either of them, and he really wanted to know how they were doing. Especially since Richard was still trying to get used to the fact he had a creature soul inside of him.

As he reached the dorm, Casper froze, feeling a shiver running down his back. The air around him felt colder than normal. Normally he wouldn't notice, but this felt different. It was like there was someone demonic here... slowly he walked into the dorm, and couldn't help but help at what he saw.

A demon with raven hair sat upon Fatch's bed, toying with his slightly curled right bang. Casper hadn't seen him too often, but he at least knew his name.

" A-Aries! "

He yelped, falling onto his rear in the shock. Aries soon looked up at him, slightly confused, before smiling and getting to his feet.

" Ah good. "

The demon said softy.

" I was hoping someone would show up. I would like to speak with you. "

Casper shook slightly, and was about to fly through the wall, when Aries surrounded him with his blue psychic energy.

" I just thought you'd like to know something. "

Aries continued, as if nothing had happened at all.

" And don't worry. Septimus doesn't know I'm here. "

Casper actually calmed down upon hearing this. Aries never disobeyed Septimus, but if Septimus hadn't sent him, then he was in no danger.

" Did you know Fatch's birthday was actually MONTHS ago? "

Casper felt his mouth drop, surprised to say the least. He could feel the psychic hold on his faltering, letting him move now.

" ... R-really...? "

He muttered, watching the psychic demon smile at him.

" Just thought you'd like to know. "

" H-how do you know this? "

" Casper, we demons have our ways. "

Before Casper could say anything else, Aries vanished. Just... vanished.


" So Fatch's birthday was MONTHS ago? "

Mantha asked in shock, getting a nod out of Casper. The ghost had called everyone over to the bridge, (Casper's gang, Thatch's gang, the werewolves, Amber, and Lexi) far away from Fatch, and the ghost was now telling them all what Aries had told him. As he'd expected, they were shocked.

" Yeah. "

" Why didn't he tell us? "

Dummygirl asked, getting the group to murmur amongst themselves.

" Did he at least celebrate it? "

Ra asked softly.

" No. "

Thatch answered, easily getting everyone's attention.

" I don't remember him celebrating it. "

" Why don't we celebrate it now?! "

Jake jumped in, his tail wagging swiftly. Almost immediately everyone perked up to the idea, chatting happily with ideas.

" That's a great idea Jake! "

Casper said happily, bouncing off ideas with the werewolf.

" We can have it in the cafeteria, "

" And there will be music, "

" And chocolate cake, "

" And streamers, "

" And soda, "

" Oh! And cookie dough ice cream! "

Thatch added at the end, quickly getting everyone's attention. The vampire blushed violently before backing up a little.

" It's, um... I-it's his favorite... "

The children laughed heartily at this, Casper walking up to him. He placed a hand on the others back, smiling at his confused expression.

" Actually, I have a special assignment for you. "

" Huh? "

" Would you mind keeping Fatch busy and away from the school? You know, so he doesn't get suspicious? Or so he doesn't figure out what we're doing? "

Thatch soon caught on and smiled, nodding at him.

" No problem. Maybe I could drag him around Deedstown... get him some ice cream. That'll definitely keep his attention. "

" Great! "

Casper cheered, clapping his hands.

" Let's get started! "


Yay first chapter! Goodnight all!
