Now here's the next chapter for Night of the Weresnail. Since last time, SpongeBob got Squidward in trouble with Ester, and now SpongeBob might become a weresnail at the dance and could remain one forever if he did. See, what becomes of SpongeBob…and Squidward.
Chapter 9: Wrath of the Weresnail
Later on, SpongeBob came down wearing a black suit with a red bowtie and shiny black shoes. "Ta da!" he said to Gary with a smile, and then he took out his To Do List. "'Find something to wear'…check."
But then Gary sniffed the air and made a disgusted face. "Blah!"
SpongeBob looked confused until he sniffed his armpit. "So what if I haven't bathed? There's no way I'm going in a tub full of water."
"Meow." Gary mentioned with a worried look.
SpongeBob just sighed in annoyance. "How many times do I have to tell you all, I'm NOT a weresnail?"
"Meow!"
"I said I'm going to the party!" SpongeBob angrily said. "I worked too hard to plan it, and neither you nor anyone will stop me from feeding on the flesh of everyone there!" he laughed evilly as lighting oddly struck in the background. Then his laughter started to die down. "Oh…that was a little too weird. I almost lost it for a second."
Then SpongeBob walked out the door and waved to Gary. "Well, see ya later, Gar."
When SpongeBob left, Gary decided to try and follow him before SpongeBob turned into a vicious weresnail during the party.
Meanwhile, Squidward was sitting in a chair at Ester's mansion. Ester didn't seem too happy after SpongeBob had shown him that Squidward took his necklace and then apparently broke it.
"Don't you realize what you have done, Squidward?" Ester angrily asked.
"Uh…destroyed a cheap useless piece of glass?" Squidward nervously guessed.
"No!" Ester snapped. "This happens to be a very rare artifact that is one of a kind made, and I have had it for years, and it was the only thing keeping me in control."
Squidward grinned nervously. "Well…that sounds pretty special. If only there was some way I could make all this up to you."
"Oh, don't worry. You'll pay back very soon…"
Outside it seemed to be getting darker and darker as night was approaching. The Dance Party at the Krusty Krab had already started and the most of the guest were already there. Sandy was outside waiting for her 'date' to arrive. She was also wearing the crystal necklace that SpongeBob had given her before over her suit.
While Sandy was waiting, someone was watching her from behind as he heavily panted.
Sandy kept waiting until SpongeBob's voice called, "Sandy!"
She turned around and spotted SpongeBob coming from besides the Krusty Krab. "SpongeBob, there you are." She said as she smiled. "I was wonderin' when you'd show up."
"Well, here I am!" SpongeBob said as he laughed in a howling tone which was odd for Sandy. "Now let's head inside and dance the night away!"
"Uh…sure, SpongeBob." Sandy replied as they both headed inside. "You're also looking mighty spiffy."
"Thanks…you too."
When they got inside, most of the guests were already dancing to the music that was playing, and they saw the decorations with streamers, balloons, snail picture cut-outs, star stickers, and cardboard cut-outs of the full moon.
"Wow, SpongeBob." Sandy said impressed. "Ya sure did a bang up job with the decoratin'."
SpongeBob giggled as he smiled. "You really think so?"
"I know so."
"Great…" SpongeBob said as he started to tug on his shirt collar, and he turned to see a full moon weresnail poster that caused him to angrily hiss and knock it down.
Sandy noticed his strange behavior and asked, "SpongeBob, you feelin' okay? You're actin' mighty strange."
SpongeBob grunted as he twitched a little, and responded, "Of course I'm fine! Don't I look fine?!" he started laughing insanely again, and then he grabbed Sandy's hand as he said, "Come on, let's start having some fun!"
Meanwhile, back at Ester's place, Ester and Squidward were still talking over the destruction of Ester's necklace which had the Scary Salt in it.
"Look sir." Squidward said in a bored tone as he stood up. "I do have my reasons for taking your super valuable pendent, but you'd probably wouldn't believe me if I told you."
Ester opened up a curtain to reveal a window that showed the full moon coming out. "Try me." He said as he began to grunt with the full moon shining on him.
"Well, if you insist." Squidward replied as he turned around, not noticing something odd that was happening to Ester. "I guess this all began when my horrible neighbor who I despise was acting more idiotic than usual. But that was before I realized that he had somehow become a weresnail."
As Squidward kept talking, he still failed to notice Ester grow a shell on his back, long eyestalks, and fangs. "I mean don't get me wrong, I myself don't believe in something ridiculous as a weresnail. But after what happened the other night with SpongeBob, I guess there might be a few around." Soon a monster was now standing in Ester's place and he growled as he looked at Squidward. "I know, I know. I still shouldn't have taken your precious necklace, but if you still fail to believe me. There's something known as Scary Salt in that which is the only thing that could bring a weresnail to normal. But since it's destroyed now, I guess it's too late." The monster began to approach Squidward from behind with him still not noticing. "Poor SpongeBob is probably a monstrous weresnail by now. But, I guess you probably don't believe me, right Ester?"
He finally turned around, and his smile dropped to see Ester was now a slimy purple weresnail with a yellow shell, long eyestalks, fangs, and slime dripping from his arms, legs, and mouth. Squidward looked nervous as he said, "I guess you do."
The weresnail just growled at him and howled. Squidward screamed and tried to run away as the weresnail threw the chair aside and chased after him.
When Squidward was cornered, he noticed a salt shaker on the shelf next to him. He grabbed it and held it out toward the weresnail. "Ha!" Squidward smirked. "You're a weresnail, so you probably hate salt also!"
There weresnail started to slowly back away as he hissed. But while Squidward was laughing in triumph, the weresnail suddenly squirted acid from his eyes that knocked the salt shaker out of Squidward's hand.
Squidward started to get a nervous look as he looked at the weresnail as it growled at him, causing Squidward to scream in fear again and run away.
Squidward ran out of the house as the weresnail broke the door down and chased after him.
While Squidward was running, he suddenly tripped on something that caused him to fall to the ground. He opened his eyes and saw it was Gary.
"Meow," Gary told him.
"I know that!" Squidward snapped as he sat up. "But I've got other problems."
Then they both heard growling, and they turn to see the werensnail coming toward them.
Squidward screamed in fear until Gary said, "Meow."
"Fine, if it'll keep me from getting mauled!" Squidward said as he picked up Gary and started running away as fast as he could.
Back at the dance, SpongeBob was stumbling from the dance floor over to the snack table. He leaned forward on the table as he began to groan and clench his fists tightly.
"Oh, Neptune…" SpongeBob groaned as he held onto the table cloth. "What's happening to me?" then he noticed a weresnail brand salt shaker right next to him on the table that caused him to angrily hiss and knock it down.
Then Patrick suddenly came up to him. "Hey buddy, how's your date going?"
"Patrick…" SpongeBob said in a raspy voice as he held onto Patrick's necktie. "I need you to…go get me the krabby patty in the garbage over there…and hurry."
"Whatever you say, best friend who's a weresnail." Patrick said as he left to get what SpongeBob asked for.
SpongeBob continued to lean on the snack table as he held his head. "I am not a weresnail!" he shouted with an angry look. "Those fools can't prove I'm a weresnail!" then he started banging his head on the table as he talked. "I…shall…feast…on…their…living…"
But suddenly, Sandy came over to him right when he stopped. "SpongeBob, you look sicker than a mule with a sinus cold. What's the matter with you?"
"Nothing!" SpongeBob suddenly yelled as he turned around with a crazed look. "I just needed some punch!" he then grabbed a cup and used a spoon to fill it up. But he ended up missing the cup, and he just tossed it all away as he laughed manically.
Sandy just glared and slapped SpongeBob across the face to snap him back to normal. "SpongeBob! You've been acting stranger than a jack rabbit going through a hail storm in Alaska these past few days, and that ain't anything normal!"
"What makes you think all that nonsense, air breather?" SpongeBob asked with a frown as he crushed a krabby patty in his fist.
"What I'm saying is, this ain't the real you!" Sandy said seriously. "And if this phase doesn't pass on now, then you can find someone else to dance with cuz I'm leaving!"
"Fine then!" SpongeBob suddenly yelled back. "Go ahead and leave! Grrrr!"
When Sandy frowned and walked away with SpongeBob still growling, Mr. Krabs suddenly came up to him. "SpongeBob!" he said as he put his arm over SpongeBob's shoulder. "This weresnail party you came up with is a success! I'm making money like there's no tomorrow!" Mr. Krabs pointed at his pocket which was full of money as he failed to notice SpongeBob fidgeting. "You think it's time to unveil the special surprise to the whole weresnail party?"
SpongeBob shook his head and got a dazed look, but was able to realize that if Mr. Krabs unveiled the surprise than it could all be over for him. "Krabs…surprise…no…do it!"
"You wanna do it now?" Mr. Krabs incorrectly interpreted. "Alright if you say so."
Then Mr. Krabs began to walk off as SpongeBob held his head and fell to his knees. "Mr. Krabs! NOOOOO!!"
Then Patrick came up to them and smiled. "I got that krabby patty you asked for." He said as he held a dirty smelly krabby patty.
What could that 'big surprise' be that could put SpongeBob in danger? I know. But it also makes you wonder if Squidward and Gary could escape the weresnail also. Well, please review and wait for the next chapter.
