Max frowns in sympathy. "Oh, no..." he gasps. He turns away. "It's my fault..." he groans.
Harry's eyes filled with tears. She hugged Dani close.
"Max, it's not your fault..." Allison tried to soothe.
However, as the mortals were sad, Thackery and Constance were inflating themselves back to normal until they were the right size and all better now.
"Max!" Allison alerted him to see the two were alive and well.
"Ugh, I hate it when that happens..." Thackery muttered.
Max looked shocked. Harry looked surprised and picked Binx up, helping Constance up, and hugged them gently, along with hugging Dani.
"Dani, Harry, are you alright?" Thackery asked the girls.
"Yeah." Dani smiled.
Harry let Thackery down. She wiped her tears but gave a soft nod. Max was still surprised.
"Okay then, let's go." Thackery told them.
"What shall-est we do of the Sanderson sisters?" Constance asked.
"We should call the cops." Dani said, sounding very serious as they got back on track.
Max nodded and followed the cat. Harry followed with the others.
Luckily as they were going around, they passed an officer on his bike.
"Officer, officer!" Dani sounded desperate.
"Officer, we need your help." Allison added.
"What's the problem?" The officer asks.
Max looked at him. Harry looked at the officer too. She felt uneasy around him too. She didn't like the feelings tonight.
"Tell him," Dani told her brother. "Go ahead."
Allison wasn't sure how the cop would take this, but hoped it would be fine.
"Well, um, well you see…I just moved here. Well you see…it's like this…I…I um…I broke into the old Sanderson house and I brought the witches back from the dead... See, I even have the book." Max explains and held up the book.
The cop got them onto the sidewalk and talked a moment, not believing them. Harriet frowned at the cop.
"And he's a virgin." Dani added in, even though she didn't know what that word meant.
"It be true." Constance added, not being recognized by the cop since she came from a 'legend'.
The cop spoke to them and got angry. He told them to go off and to bother someone else. Max frowned and went away with the rest of the group. Harry's stomach rolled and churned unpleasantly. This running wasn't helping. Dani looked very worried about her sister as they ran off. They couldn't convince the cop.
A blonde woman dressed rather maturely stepped out of the liquor store. "What's so funny, Eddie?" she asked as the group and the cat ran off.
"Just some kids yanking my chain... They thought I was a real cop." Eddie laughs.
The blonde woman laughed with him.
Max was ahead, leading to the town hall.
Harry clutched her stomach and slowed down a little. "You guys go on ahead, I'll catch up in a minute..." she mumbles.
"Art thou go-eth to be okay?" Constance came to Harry's aid as the others went off. "Thou look-eth quite ill."
Max looked worried but kept going like she wanted.
Harry looked at the girl. "Don't worry..." she mumbles but found a bin and threw up into it. She luckily would get none on her hair as the ear headband kept the longest bits out-of-the-way.
Constance cringed as Harry did that, worried about her, but settled down. Harry finished after a minute looking a little better, though still quite pale. Harry was standing outside a moment to catch her breath. She was close enough to speed in though. She sat on the steps. She kept an eye out, the fresh air, helping a little.
The group luckily made it to Town Hall. A lot of people were going in now and the Dennison parents never really did tell their children what they were going to dress up as. It was going to be a real challenge.
Max looked around. "Great, how are we gonna find Mom and Dad in this place?" He asks.
"I'm gonna look for Mom." Dani said as she left with Thackery and Constance.
A vampire came behind Max and grabbed him from behind. He was a very familiar creature of the night however.
"Dad!" Max gasps, shocked.
"It's not Dad, it's Dadula," the family man smiled, then spotted to see Allison. "Oh, my goodness, who must be this charming, young, blood-adonna be?" he took her hand and kissed it like a gentleman.
Allison was flattered, but this was a serious moment for her and Max right now.
"Dad! Something terrible's happened." Max says, annoyed a little.
"Dani?" Dave grew serious since he had Max and Harry take the youngest one trick or treating. "What's wrong?"
"No Dad, Dani's fine." Max says. He told him what happened.
Dani came up to someone dressed as an alligator. "Mom?"
The alligator, who got down on one knee, shook it's head. Dani sighed and continued to look for her mother while Max and Allison would talk with 'Dadula' about what they had been through during trick or treating. Jenny was dancing and turned doing a weird dance move. Max then went with his dad and Allison to find Jenny.
"Mom?" Dani finally found their mother. "What are you supposed to be?"
"I hath never seen such an ensemble on a maiden," Constance looked at the bizarre outfit on the Dennison mother. "Let-eth high-lone, a mother."
Jenny looked sheepish "Madonna, well you know..." she trails off.
Harry blinked as she saw the sisters coming. She got up and started to make her way inside. Thackery looked to Harry, concerned for her as she looked worried. He had not noticed the Sanderson sisters coming yet.
"Thackery, the sisters are coming..." she whispers, picking him up.
Dani was struggling to say what the problem was because of how impossible it sounded for someone who hadn't experienced it. As she got quiet privacy with her mother she told her mother that the cat could talk and that witches were after them.
The song came on was "I Put A Spell On You" just as the Sanderson sisters came for the mortals, and immortal girl and cat. Constance even tried to tell Jenny that she was from the early century back when the Sanderson sisters were gone, but made her never age or die like the talking cat. Jenny thought they had too much Candy. Max frowned.
Harry looked at Thackery. "Go on ahead to Dani." she says, kissing his head. She was going to find Max and her dad.
Sarah and Mary looked around. Dani and Constance still tried to convince her, now they were going to look for Dave.
"Slither about, find them!" Winnie commanded her sisters. She then elbowed Mary in the side as Sarah had already went off.
Sarah and Mary both went off.
"Max! Harry! They're here! They're here!" Dani cried.
"Hark! The witches come-eth!" Constance added, sounding more dramatic than her usual tone of voice due to the deathly witches had found them.
Jenny looked at them. Harry came close to Mary and slipped past though. Winnie still told her sisters to keep looking for the children, fooled by everyone's costumes, thinking they were really what they were supposed to be. They even visibly cringed at a little girl dressed as an angel.
Allison was given the spell book by Max as he went off, leaving her and his father. Dani and Constance were disappointed they couldn't find the Sanderson sisters to prove to Jenny they were there and existed. Jenny watched Max. Max went up to the stage. Harry stopped a little, gulping as she saw Winnie.
"Hey man, I'm in the middle of a song." the man growled as Max interrupted him.
"Get over here!" Winnie caught Sarah as she was making out with a mummy. "Did you find them?"
"What device is that yonder with the Max fellow?" Constance saw Max grab a microphone.
"Hey, hey cut the music!" Max says then addressed the crowd. "Will everybody listen up please?" He asks.
Harry looked at him surprised. Jenny looked at the girl, smiling a tiny bit.
"He's just getting everybody worked up." Dave said.
"Listen to him," Dani told her parents. "He's fine!"
"This be very serious, pay attention to thine son." Constance added.
Thackery blinked, but stayed close to Harry. It's better if Max handles this than he does, the public may think he's a cursed cat of sorts haunting them. Harry found a stone and made it hit Winnie's leg.
Winnie yipped and looked around, aggressive. "Who bloody threw that!?"
Harry snickered and gulped a little though. Winnie hissed, but stayed close to her sisters. She seemed impressed that no one seemed to be believing what the boy was saying about them. Mary came over and so did Sarah.
"Your kids are in danger." Max says.
Jenny looked at Max.
"What do you mean?" a cow girl asked.
Dani, Constance, and Thackery hoped and wished this would work.
"300 years ago, the Sanderson sisters bewitched people, and now they've returned from their grave," Max starts. "Hey man, I'm serious! It's not a joke!" He shouts as the crowd laughed.
"Alright, this has gone far enough." Dave was finished with Max's 'pranks'.
Winnie hissed, but stayed close to her sisters. She seemed impressed that no one seemed to be believing what the boy was saying about them.
"It's not a joke! They're right over there!" Max shouts pointing.
The crowd backed away from them. Harry did a second slower. A spotlight came on the Sanderson sisters, much to their shock. Mary and Sarah looked worried. Harry hoped they would be discovered truly.
"Good joke," the singer chuckled. "Happy Halloween!"
Winnie then went to the stage with Mary and Sarah as they had a lot of attention. She welcomed Salem like she was a rock star and started to sing with the band, somehow knowing the words to the song. Probably because it was about 'spells'. Mary and Sarah continued to back up Winnie.
"Binx, where are you?" Dani looked around as the cat seemed to have gone missing.
Mary and Sarah backed her up. Harry went to get her family and new friends, trying to dodge Billy.
"Hey, Max, Harry, great show." Dave praised.
"Cover your ears!" Dani shouted with Max, remembering the legend spoken of the Sanderson sisters and their spells and singing styles.
Billy was coming for the kids as the crowd was having unsuspecting fun. Jenny felt that Billy chasing them was cute. She wished she had her camera. Harry gulped and pushed her younger siblings gently out. She then turned to glare at Billy.
"Dance! Dance until you die!" Winnie laughed as the crowd enjoyed the song. She then started to leave with her sisters.
Mary and Sarah followed Winnie.
"Binx, Constance, come on!" Dani called to her friends as they ran out of Town Hall and into the alley to escape.
"Max, come on, calm down." Allison was surprised at Max as he kicked the trash cans down in frustration.
Constance blinked, not sure what to say about that.
Max looked mad. "No one'll believe us!" He frowns.
Harry groaned and clenched her stomach a little.
"Ith is not all bad, young fellow." Constance tried to soothe.
Thackery stayed close to Harry, very worried about how she was feeling right now. Harry picked Thackery up and hid with him. She was annoyed by the bad feeling she had this night. Max looked at them. He was about to continue but heard the sisters.
"Uh-oh." Thackery saw the sisters coming.
The others rushed and went off to duck for cover as a resturant. A cook was coming for some lobster.
Mary led them into the alleyway, sniffing. Harry gulped silently.
"Yes?" Winnie prompted Mary as she noticed her senses heightening.
"I smell, I smell... Scrud!" Mary says.
Winnie gave her a look. Mary started to explain what it was. Sarah looked interested. Winnie then grabbed her and dragged her out of the alley to go after the kids. She saw Sarah's absent mind snuck to the boxes and more, so she pulled her along too, annoyed. They then went to the school to come after the kids.
"I have an idea." Allison whispered.
Max kept quiet, but nodded. Harry hugged Thackery gently.
"You must have gut feelings... I often do, especially when my sisters were taken from me." Thackery told Harry gently, noticing how queasy she seemed again.
Harry looked at him. "I feel something terrible is going to happen..." she whispers.
Allison told Max her idea to have it set forth and possibly drive away the Sanderson sisters.
As soon as they were in the school, Max went to the office. He then went on like a TV presenter.
Harry was sat aside behind the clay kiln's door. She was going to lure the witches. "Good day, I would like a book... Bonjour, je voudrais un livre..." she says.
Thackery was in the middle of the floor in the hallway. The Sanderson sisters noticed the announcement in 'High School Hell' and were being taunted by 'Boris Kartloff Junior'. Max laughed as if taunting them. Mary looked interested sniffing. Harry sat still. She continued to state the thing to lure them in.
"Get him!" Winnie summoned after Thackery.
The Sanderson sisters went after the cat, but stopped as they heard a female French voice. They saw a big oven that used for art students who had molded some sculptures. Max waited.
"Good day, I would like a book... Bonjour, je voudrais un livre." Harry says, in a convincing French accent.
The sisters went to the source of the voice. They had no idea that it was Harry being faux against herself. Harry continued until they were in the room. When they were in the kiln room she shut the door on them. Max came along and watched with the girls. Allison turned on a button as all three Sanderson sisters were in the kiln room after locking and closing the door on them.
"Come-eth, now is the time to make for our escape." Constance told the others to get outside of the school while the Sanderson sisters would suffer.
Green smoke emitted from the school's chimney.
Max was laughing and whooping. "Goodbye, Winnifred Sanderson! Burn, Burn!" he calls.
Harry came out smiling but her gut told her something wasn't right about it. She carried Binx, her smile a little softer when she saw Dani dancing about.
"I've wanted to do that for 300 years," Thackery was amused as they had victory over the Sanderson sisters. He then looked to see Dani with Allison and looked up softly to Harry as she held him. "Since they took Emily and Tabitha..."
"What shall we partake in now as it grows dark and a chilly evening on All Hallow's Night?" Constance wondered as they stopped celebrating for a moment.
"You can come back to our house... Mom and Dad could adopt you..." Max says to Constance.
Harry hugged Binx and kissed his head. "You can be our Kitty if you want, I'm sorry we can't return you to being human..." she whispers.
No one could see it, but Binx blushed a little in the kiss. "Home..."
"Come on, Binx and Constance, let's go home!" Dani beamed.
"Thou art kind Dennison clan for taking us in like this..." Constance sounded hopeful.
The group then rushed to the Dennison house to alert Dave and Jenny about the two new members of their family. The party in Town Hall should be over by now.
