Chapter 9
"She's going to suspened me Jav." Chip stated as the two wakled down the empty corridor.
"No she won't. You almost lost an arm." Javier said as he placed a hand on Chip's shoulder. "And just saved someone's life."
"Don't exaggerate."
"I'm not. Who knows what he would have done to her if you hadn't stepped in."
Chip was silent after that not wanting to think about what would happen. When they walked into the main room of the building, it was completley crowded. The rst of ROR was there, as well as HSS, OK, Claire, the Dean, and several security guards. "Woah. What's going on?"
"Chip you're okay!" Squishy yelled excitedly as he got down from his seat and ran over to the larger monster. Javier looked on confused as the youngest of the OKs hugged Chip's leg. "We were really worried about you. Are you hurting?"
"A little, but don't worry. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger." Chip stated with a toothy grin.
"Mr. Goff." The Dean said as she excused herself from the security guards and walked over to Chip. He shuffled his feet a bit, expecting the worse. Javier stood by his side in silent support, mildly concerned for what the Dean had to say. "Security wants to know what transpired to lead up to the exchange. Would you care to explain?"
"Oh, sure. The HSS girls wanted me to talk to the guy, his name was Danny. He wouldn't leave Nadya alone, so I told him too. A little while later, me and Reggie were on the steps and we heard Nadya scream." Chip said. "We ran over and saw Danny trying to drag Nadya away. When he hit her...I ran over and puched him in the nose. The rest of the fight went on from there."
"I see."
"A-Am I getting...expelled or suspended?"
"Of course not. The monster you fought was not even attending this school." The Dean explained. "There is no reason for you to be expelled."
"Oh good." Chip sighed out in relief.
"I told you, you were worrying for nothing." Javier said with a chuckle as he patted Chip hard on the shoulder. He quickly pulled his hand back when Chip let out a loud yelp of pain, causing everyone, but the Dean, to jump. "Lo siento!"
"It's okay, I'm good." Chip reassured as he rubbed at his arm. "Just a little sore."
"What happened?" Hardscrabble asked as she noticed the bandages peeking out from underneath Chip's sleeve. "How badly were you injured?"
"Yeah dude, show us the battle scars!" Chet yelled excitedly.
"Shut up Chet." Johnny ordered, greatly annoyed by the OKs presence. He just took his anger out on the poor crab.
"I'm sowwy."
"Uh, I don't think that would be a good idea." Chip stated. "The nurse barely put the bandages on."
"Hey Chip!" The horned monster turned and saw Celia running down the hall towards him.
"Speaking of nurse."
She ran into the room a bit breathless before quickly going over to Chip. "I forgot to check something. Take off you sweater really quick."
"But-"
"Don't argue and just take it off." Celia ordered as she crossed her arms. Chip sighed before slowly taking it off and handing it to Javier. Everyone could see the bandages covering his entire left arm. Celie went over and started to examine the skin around the bandages, lifting them up in some areas. "I had to make sure the disinfectant the nurse used wasn't irritating your skin, some monsters are allergic to it. It doesn't look like you are though."
"Dude, you look like some kind of anime character or a gang member with your arm like that." Reggie joked as he poked at his arm. "As if that would ever happen though."
"Yeah." Chip said as he pulled on his sweater. "Never gonna happen."
"Well since your all right, I have to get back to the office before-Woah!' She yelled as she moved as to not step onto Squishy's who was right behind her. She was about to hit the floor, but someone caught her. She looked and saw that it was Mike. "Oh, hello."
"H-Hi." Mike stuttered as he helped her stand up. There was a large blush across his face and he almost looked like a large red tomato. "What's your n-name?'
"Celia. Celia Mae. And you are?"
"Mike Wazowski. Nice to meet you."
"Someone's got a crush." Sulley chuckled causing Mike to send him a burning glare. Celia was blushing a bit now as well. "Hehe."
The HSS girls ignored the three and walked over next to the Dean and Chip. Nadya stepped forward with an icepack still held to her cheek. "Chip, I never got to thank you. If you weren't there to help me, I don't think anybody else would have tried to help."
"Yeah, its a good thing we saved your ass in the library." Rhonda stated.
"What do you mean?" questioned Chip.
"Yeah, we did you a favor, then you did one for us."
"But I would have helped Nadya even if I didn't owe you guys anything." Chip stated. "So if that guy ever comes back, just call me."
"Hey Goff." Rosie said getting his attention. "You saved one of our sisters today, for that you have gained our full respect. Thanks for helping."
"Thanks Rosie, and your welcome."
After Chip answered a few more questions for the security guards to give to the police, ROR exited the building and were headed towards Frat Row. Almost there, Johnny stopped the group. "Hey boys, I think its time to celebrate."
"Why?" questioned Reggie.
"For Chippy boy here." Johnny said as he patted said monster on the back. "We have to celebrate him making it out alive from fighting a gang member with razorblades for hands. Its on me."
"Really?" Chip asked bewildered. Johnny gave a nod of his head before he started to walk towards the front gates of the University. "That's real cool of you man, thanks."
"It's what I do. Now where do you boys want to eat?"
"Shloogorgh's Diner, one of the best restruants near MU." Johnny stated as they turned the corner and saw the building up ahead.*"Let's go."
They entered through the double glass doors, and took a seat in one of the larger booths. As they waited for someone to take their order, Reggie started a conversaion. "So Chip, where did you learn those moves anyway? If it had been me out there, I would have been sliced in half."
"Yeah, how did you pull that off?" questioned Johnny curiously. Chip hesitated a bit as he tried to come with a believable lie. "Well?"
"Uh, I play a lot of video games." Chip lied quickly. Most of them seemed convinced, except for Javier. Chip awkwardly cleared his throat before asking, "So who's gonna be taking our order?"
"That would be me." They all turned and were more than shocked to see Art standing next to their table, holding a notepad and pen.* "What can I get you guys?"
"Art you work here?" Chip questioned shocked.
"Yep, I'm good friends with the owner's son, Benji. He got me a job here and I can get discounts on the food." Art stated cheerily. "Now what would you like to eat?"
"Can't we get a different waiter?" Johnny asked annoyed.
"Nope. I'm the only one on shift at the moment. Would you like to hear the specials?" Art asked, oblivious to Johnny's anger.
"I'll take the steak and mashed potatoes." Reggie said causing everyone to turn to him. "Extra gravy."
"I'll have a BLT sandwich." Javier said witout taking his eyes of the menu.
"I'm gonna have the baked Mac & Cheese with a baked potato." Chet said happily.
"Um, I'll have the chicken fried steak." Chip said, as he placed his menu down on the table. Everyone looked at Johnny expectantly before he sighed and looked at Art.
"I'll have the grilled eggplant parmesan sandwich. Don't screw it up." Johnny harshly before flicking the menu onto the table.
"Alright, I'll be back with your food soon. In the meantime, what drinks would you like?" Art asked.
"Monster Dew." They all answered simultaneously.*
"I'll be back with those in a minute."
About an hour later, everyone was full from the excellent food. Art stacked several plates onto his head before taking them into the kitchen. "I'll be back with the tab in a second."
"Man, I really love mashed potatoes." Reggie sighed happily as he rubbed his stomach.
"Yeah, but I think the baked potato is better." Chet stated.
"Nah, mashed potatoes are."
"No, baked potato."
"Mashed potatoes."
"Baked potato."
"Mashed potatoes!"
"Baked potato!"
"Hey good news!" Art said, as he ran out of the kitchen. "Benji said that his Dad is letting you guys have that meal for free."
"Really? Why?" Johnny asked confused.
"I told him about how Chip helped that girl. He was impressed and thought you deserved the meal."
"Wow, thanks Art." Chip said with a grin.
"No problemo!" Art said before giving a thumbs up and walking off.
They all walked out of the diner and started walking towards the University. Johnny was in the lead, Chet and Reggie had continued their argument on which form of potato is better, and Javier and Chip were holding up the back. The bug monster leaned over and whispered to Chip, "I've got to talk to you back at the house."
"Why?" Chip whispered back confused.
"Just come to my room." Javier said before walking like they hadn't had the small conversation. Chip was baffled but kept walking. As they got to the front gates, Johnny silenced Chet and Reggie before adjusting his collar and leading everyone inside.
In Roar Omega Roar, you had to keep up an image. Whether you were performing on the Scare Simulator or just walking down the hall. You had to have an air that told everyone that you were someone important and shouldn't be messed with. RORs current members had just that.
Everyone looked over when the group walked through the front gates and started walking towards Frat Row. Some freshman noticed and immeadiatley went running over to the fraternity. Johnny was about to greet their eager faces when they ran around him and went over to Chip. "Huh?"
"You're Chip Goff right?" One of the younger monsters asked excitedly.
"Yeah, why?" Chip asked a bit nervously.
"Dude, you're awesome!" Another monster, with glasses and several braclets around her arms, yelled. "The way you ended that fight with a falcon punch, was just crazy! I've never seen one in real life! Do you happen to play video games?"
"Um, yeah I play a little. Wait, how do you know about the fight?"
"Its all over the web. You haven't seen the video?"
"What video?" asked Chet. One of the monsters pulled out a laptop from their bag and quickly opened it. Everyone crowded behind the monster as he pulled up a video and pressed play. At first the camera was pointed at the ground and you could hear other monsters murmuring. It pulled up and you could see Danny and Chip yelling at each other. "Its the fight!"
"Obviously, now shush." Reggie said as he leaned in closer. You could see when Danny pulled out his claws and lunged at Chip. The rest of ROR was in the background and when Danny mentioned Nadya, you could see them visibly anger. You could hear the crowd gasp when Danny wrapped his tail around Chip's throat, and then a cheer when he knocked him away. "Dude, this is awesome!"
"Oh so that's how that happened." Chip said as he saw the part where Danny managed to catch him on the arm. There were a few more swipes and hits before Chip ended it. He couldn't help but wince at his own expression. "I-I look insane."
"And awesome! Look at how you bare your fangs and the blood that comes out when you bite his tail. You're like a vampire!" The freshman yelled delightedly. It was when Chip slammed the laptop shut and almost caused it to fall, that the his cheery mood vanished. "What the heck man?"
"Never call me that!" Chip yelled as he towered over the smaller monster. He cowered a bit and held the laptop up to his face. "Who posted that video?"
"I-I don't know! There are a bunch of copies of that video."
"Damn it!" Chip yelled before he started to storm off towards the house. The others were shocked but quickly ran after him. "Stupid video."
"What was that about?" questioned Johnny. Chip just ignored and continued to grumble to himself. Before he could get inside, Johnny blocked his path. "I'm talking to you!"
"Yeah well, I'm ignoring you." Chip stated as he tried to step around his leader but failed. "I don't want to talk about it okay?"
"I don't care. You're telling me now." Johnny stated as he crossed his arms. They glared at each other for a while, before Chip pushed past Johnny and started to make his way to his room. "Hey!"
"Shut up Johnny! I'm not in the mood!" Chip yelled before he walked in to his room and slammed the door shut.
"Why that little-" Johnny was about to follow after him when Javier placed a hand on his shoulder. "What?"
"Let him calm down jefe. You should too. I'll talk to him later." Javier stated. Johnny thought it over before taking deep breath and turning to the taller monster.
"Fine, but if he starts acting up, I'm making him sleep on the back porch."
-Can anyone guess where Shloogorgh's is from?
-I went to Applebee's the other day and our waiter's name was Art. I had to add this.
-Yeah...I really like Mountain Dew.
