Chapter 1
School Play and Agreements
It's the middle of November and an idea developed in Headmistress Bloodgood's head. But she needs help to get it into action and so she called her favourite group of students to the drama hall to ask them for help. And those are Cleo, Deuce, Clawd, Draculora, Ghulia, Abbey, Spectra, Lagoona, Gil, Robecca, Zelius, Clawdeen, Frankie, Jackson, Operetta and Johnny Spirit. She waited for them to arrive in the said place.
"Hello ! Why did you call all of us here ? Did something happened ? Do you need our help with something ?" Frankie bombarded her principle with questions. But Bloodgood just smiled at that as she expected that kind of reaction from Frankie because after all that ghoul really likes to help others. "Yes to be honest I have an assignment for you all if you will accept the challenge of course." Bloodgood smiled at her. "Of course we will miss. Have we ever brought you down ?" Frankie returned the smiled. "I'm happy to hear that Frankie but please let me tell you what it is first and then you will be able to make the choice." Bloodgood motion at her to calm. "I want you all to be in charge of our Christmas school play this year." Bloodgood smiled at them all. "You see our drama teacher Mr. Where broke his leg and dislocated his elbow and he can't take care of the play this year. But a lot of people still want it to happen and I know no one is more capable of taking care of it then you lot." Bloodgood explained and smiled at them.
The teens looked at one another and then nod their heads. "Magnificent." Bloodgood was delighted. "So what is the title of this year's play Miss ?" Frankie asked. "That is up to you lot to decide as poor Mr. Where has been unable to teach since the beginning of this month and so was also unable to pick the title of the play." Bloodgood explained. "So we can pick whatever title we want yes ?" Zelius asked in a bit of a wondering tone. "As long as everyone agrees with it yes. But why do you ask ? Do you have something in mind already ?" Bloodgood asked suspiciously. "To say the truth yes I do." Zelius admitted. "Then go on." Bloodgood smiled at him.
"I was thinking about performing the Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens." Zelius smiled at her and she looked at him very confused. "And what is that I have never heard of that story ?" Bloodgood ask. "A Christmas Carol is a book written by a human author Charles Dickens. He was one of the best english authors of all time. But A Christmas Carol was his greatest success. It tells the story of a man called Ebenezer Scrooge. Who despite the fact that is rich. Is a very grumpy, heartless and a greedy man. One could say that his heart hand turn into to stone. But there still is one person that want's to help him. And that is his long dead friend and ex business partner Jacob Marely. He haunts Ebenezer the night before Christmas and warns him to change his way of living and his attitude towards people or the chain of his sins will be longer than the one Marley himself has to wear to repay his sins. He also promised Scrooge that 3 ghosts will pay him a visit one after the other. The first when the clock will strike 1 the second when the clock will 2 and the third and last one when the clock will strike 3." Zelius explained with so much passion that Bloodgood was near tears. And the fact that he flew out onto the stage in the middle of his explanation to give it even more life beaten everything. "You seem to be very passionate about that book Zelius." She said. "Oh yes I am Miss. I read it every Christmas." He smiled at her and turned to face Robecca. "My princess would you mind handing me the red hardback book that is in my school bag please ?" He asked her with a smiled. "Robecca quickly found the book and he flew up to her and took it kissing her hand while at it. She just blushed.
"As I said I read it every Christmas. This is by far my favorite english human book. I've read it so many times that I know it of by heart. In three different languages if I may add." He slimed a Headmistress Bloodgood and hand the book. " It's one of the most valuable books in my collection. Especially because it is signed. With a special dedication to me on top of that." Zelius smiled again. "Wait a minute how come can you have his book signed with a special dedication ?" Jackson asked. "This guy is dead for over a century. A 135 years to be exact." Jackson asked. Zelius just looked at him and laughed. "Well Jackson ghosts can hold pens too you know." He said. "What you asked a ghost to sign a book for you ?" Jackson asked another question. "More than once to be honest and I asked both monster and human anthors. Except Dickens I also asked Alexander Dumas the french human author who wrote The Three Musketeers as well as Count of Monte Cristo for his signature on the said books and more. I also asked Jane Austen to sign a copy of Pride and Prejudice as a Christmas present for my mom one year. And many other both human and monster authors like F. Scott Howlgreald who wrote The Great Gatsby. I also own a copy of The Scream Brother's Scary Tales signed by them both." Zelius smiled at the half normi. Jackson was just shocked and decided to leave the matter alone.
"You seem to not be afraid to read of reading human books." Bloodgood said handing him The Christmas Carlo back. "I certainly and not Miss. I have always read them and always will. They don't differ that much from our books. And I always have a great laugh while reading the books humans have written about us. I fall of my chair multiple times while reading Dracula and Phantom of The Opera because they were so far from truth that it was funny." Zelius chuckled remembering some of the lines of the said books. "I'm sure you have. And I have to admit that this book seems really good and just our type of style so if everyone else will agree I also would like you all to turn that into the best play that school had ever seen." Bloodgood smiled at him. Zelius was really happy and turned to his friends asking "So what do you think ?"
When they saw the spark in his eyes they all understood that this means a lot to him and in the end agreed. "Thank you all so so much !" He shouted. "Yous have no idea how long I had been waiting for a chance to direct the best Christmas Carlo play ever." He flew up and shout. "I had read the book so many times, watched every single movie version of it, and seen the Brooklyn pro splay in the human world 5 times but I was always my biggest dream to direct a play that will be even better than that one. And that can be my very first and most important step towards." He landed back on the stage but didn't hide his wings yet. "I remember how happy I was when I was picked to play the role of Scrooge when I was in first year of High School back in Boo York when I was attending school there." He said. "But this feeling is a million times stronger." He admitted.
"You really played the part of Scrooge three years ago ?" Bloodgood asked. Zelius turned to her. "Oh yes I did miss I even still remember all the lines. But it's hard to forget them even if I want to because of my photographic memory." Zelius admitted and rubbed the back of his head. "Well in that case would you consider being Scrooge one again for this play ?" Bloodgood asked him. Zelius sighted. "Sorry Miss but I really want to direct it I really have a vision now. To be honest I even know who could I pick to play who." He explained. Bloodgood smiled at him. "Then go on tell us." She insisted. "Well in my opinion Spectra would be the best ghost of Christmas Past, As that ghost is pretty quiet, bit serious and determinated. Just like Spectra when she is working on her blog." Zelius started. "Then I say that Clawd would be just perfect to play the role of the ghost of Christmas Tense. As that guy is basically Santa Claws ( My monster name for Santa Claus.) He is very happy and jolly but can be very serious and wise at times. And that is just the definition of our Clawd if someone asks me." Zelius smiled at his friend. "It actually is just the definition of him." Draculora agreed. Zelius just nod his head at her with a smile. "Jackson my friend." Zelius said looking at the hal normi teen. "In my opinion the role of Bob Cratchit is all yours. Quiet, nice, polite, helpful, appreciates everything in life . Those are just a few things you two have in common." Zelius listed. "And of course since Jackson loves Frankie till it hurts if not more Frankie automatically gets the role of Mrs. Cratchit," Zelius stated. "And then I was also thinking that if it would be possible to get Porter here he could play the role of Jacob Marely. He would be just great for it in my opinion." Zelius looked at Spectra who was dating the trouble making ghost. And she just blushed. "And that would be it for now Headmistress Bloodgood." Zelius turned back to face her. "So you have no idea who could play the role of Scrooge yet ?" She asked. "No I don't Miss. That role would have to be decided during the auditions." Zelius admitted. "Well then can we make a litte agreement ?" She asked him. "It depends what type of an agreement are you talking about ?" Zelius answered her question with his own one. "If you won't find someone capable of playing the role of Scrooge by the end of this week. Whether you want to or not you will play his role." Bloodgood explained. "Are you ok with that ?" She asked. "Zelius rubbed the back of his head nervously. "I don't know why do you want me to play this part so badly Miss. But ok I accept your agreement. But be prepere to lose Miss as we have a lot of talented monsters in this school." Zelius smiled at her. "Then it will bo so." She just nod her head at him and dismissed them all back to class.
