When the kids were brought back to school, Urchin decided to stick around since he still had time to be human for the day. Atticus soon ran like the wind back to the museum. Cherry and Patch went with him of course while the kids were getting their haunted house for school set up for tomorrow. Darla and Urchin seemed to sneak with the older kids and puppy.
"Go back to the other students, you two." Patch said as he could hear them.
"Aww..." Darla and Urchin frowned.
"Education is important." Atticus said.
"Hey, I'm not even in school." Urchin smirked innocently.
"You wanted to be like a normal human boy." Darla reminded with a smirk back.
"Dang it." Urchin groaned.
"Now go to school." Cherry firmly told Darla and Urchin.
"How come you guys don't have to go to school?" Darla folded her arms.
"Yeah." Urchin said.
"Just go." Atticus said.
Darla and Urchin mumbled before they then went off to meet the others back at school.
Atticus continued to run to the museum. Cherry and Patch followed him.
Urchin looked bored as he sat in a desk as Darla, Amber, and Annabelle were with Nick and Kate. "School is so boring." he then groaned.
"Welcome to the real world." Darla giggled.
"Now this is pretty cool, Nick!" Kate beamed as she had a remote control for a spider on a web.
"Yeah, I had to disassemble my miniature remote control space station to make it, but no problem," Nick smiled as he used a screwdriver on a skeleton. "You think that spider was cool, wait 'til I get this zombie put together."
"I wonder how it will look." Amber said.
"Too bad we don't have any music to make monsters by." Amber sighed.
Nick then turned on a boombox which played eerie music.
"You've thought of everything!" Kate smiled to her best friend.
"The music is very eerie." Urchin smiled.
"That's the Halloween spirit!" Amber smiled back to the blonde boy.
Darla did her part by making up clothes for the zombie, showing she had a great taste and talent in fashion like Rarity.
"Wow, Rarity's fashion lessons sure are helpful." Amber said.
"I think I'll work for the fashion industry when I grow up." Darla suggested for her future.
The others smiled to that. Darla then took out the blue jacket and allowed the others to cut it up a little to make it look old and tattered for the zombie.
"Looks just like how a zombie would wear it." Darla smiled.
Amber and Annabelle smiled back to her. Nick then fit the jacket on and it was a perfect fit.
"Perfect." Nick smiled.
"You think maybe he needs gloves?" Urchin wondered.
"Maybe." Darla said.
Darla then decided to make gloves with claws for the zombie. Nick continued to screw the bones and he then smirked once he saw Kate grabbed his shoulder with one of the arms as a joke. Nick seemed to smile dreamily to her.
"Uh-oh, someone is in love." Darla smirked quietly.
Urchin then put a messy purple wig on the zombie's head. Annabelle was making slime to put in for affect.
"What is that stuff?" Amber asked.
"Mushy old jelly." Annabelle smirked.
"Ew." Amber cringed.
Annabelle giggled as they then added in the slime. Urchin took out a rubber eyeball and put it in one eye socket.
"Cool." Annabelle smiled.
Kate looked disgusted from the eye and Nick took a picture of that with their camera.
"Too bad we can't make him move, that'd be really cool." Amber said.
"Who says we can't?" Nick smiled.
"Wait, we can?" Annabelle smiled.
Nick put a metal piece onto the skeleton and took out a remote control which made the skeleton walk around.
"That is so cool." Urchin smiled.
Nick smiled as he seemed to enjoy this himself.
"Nice, looks like it just crawled out of the graveyard!" Kate approved.
"Yeah, that green jelly from the cafeteria really is unearthly especially when smeared all over the skeleton from the biology lab." Nick smiled to Annabelle since the slime was her idea.
"Awesome." Annabelle smiled.
"It oughta make the haunted house a howling success." Kate said as they kept the zombie in a locker until tomorrow.
"Yeah, we just forgot one thing," Nick said. "We still need to carve a scary pumpkin for the Pumpkin Contest."
"Oh, right..." Darla said.
"There's still plenty of time to find a nice big one," Kate smiled. "After we wash up this slime."
They then went to the bathrooms to wash themselves up after getting slime on them.
"I don't think I've seen you in school before, kid." Nick said to Urchin.
"I'm new." Urchin said.
"Hmm..." Nick hummed to him before then using the hand dryer.
The lights then appeared to be flickering on and off.
"Does that happen a lot?" Urchin asked.
"It's probably nothing." Nick shrugged as they then left the room.
"I hope so." Urchin said.
They then walked out of the bathroom. There was a galloping sound heard which made Nick freeze in his spot.
"Crane... I've come for you...!" a ghostly voice called from up the hallway.
"That's not funny, Tucker!" Darla glared.
Nick had already began to run for his life and had accidentally ran into Kate, knocking her down on the floor.
"Are you serious?" Urchin asked.
"Nick, what's going on?" Kate asked. "You look like you've seen a ghost."
"W-Worse, look!" Nick pointed in fear.
"It's the ghost of the Headless Horseman and it's real!" Kate said.
"No, it's not..." Darla deadpanned before letting her leg out to trip Tucker. And where it caused him to yelp as he tripped over her leg.
Darla smirked as Tucker then tripped and exposed himself, she then walked over with an innocent whistle.
"Real disappointing." Kate frowned as Tucker's pumpkin fell in the water fountain.
"Yep." Amber smiled.
"Nick, you can come out now, it's just Tucker trying to be funny." Annabelle called.
Nick came out of a locker and chuckled sheepishly. "Knew it all along... Nice touch with the goggles though, Tuck."
"Knew it all along?!" Tucker laughed. "Yeah, right! I've never seen anybody so scared."
"Would you just leave us alone?" Darla asked.
Urchin smirked as he then brought the zombie out from the hallway corner to scare Tucker. Tucker yelled out in fear.
"Who's tough now?" Urchin smirked.
"Why, you!" Tucker glared.
Urchin only laughed at Tucker.
"Nice one, Urchin." Darla smiled.
"Sure thing... Darla." Urchin smiled back.
"You okay, Nick?" Amber asked.
"I... I think so..." Nick smiled nervously.
"Nick, you have got to grow a back bone." Annabelle said.
"I know..." Nick sighed.
Urchin decided he should maybe help Nick out with his cowardice.
