Reed's POV

My eyes dart around the full arena, monsters from all over campus are flooding the seats, taking the side belonging to their team of choice. I notice all the monsters decked out in Roar Omega Roar gear talking with Johnny and the rest of the RORs like they're celebrities and I notice the same for the Oozmas. These games have made that little band of misfit monsters famous, though everybody loves an underdog.

I straighten out my sweater, feeling the soft cashmere under my claws. This is it. This is when the winner of the games will be determined. I feel confident that we will come out of this victorious, but I can't help but feel a little nervous. The Oozmas have really held their own against us. I'm definitely not letting my guard down.

I feel a gentle nudge on my shoulder and see Javier giving me a warm smile. "Are you ready, Miss Reed?"

I nod, returning a smile of my own. "I like to think I am."

"Good," Jav says, glancing to Johnny as he poses for a picture with a group of fans. "Senior Johnny is worried about you."

"I know he is," I say, watching that big idiot eat up the attention. "But I'll be okay."

"I know you will." Jav says, giving me a wink.

I smile at him and watch Johnny as he jogs over to us. "You ready?" He glances to Jav, but his gaze remains on me.

I give him a reassuring smile. "I'm ready."

He nods, walking over to me, wrapping his arm around my waist. We stay like that all through singing the MU alma mater, and as we reach the last verse I feel his grip on my side tighten. Not surprising that he actually has a pretty good singing voice.

When he lets go of me I glance over to the Oozmas and see Sulley watching us. I narrow my eyes at him and he just looks away. I wonder if Addison told him about my mother.

"First scarers to the starting line!" Claire's voice booms over the speakers. I watch as Oozma's older member walks up to the white line painted in the grass. Oh no, poor guy. Bruiser walks up to the line on our side and he is already in full on beast mode. This is going to be sad.

"Hey Bruiser," I hear Johnny call to him. "You take it easy on grandpa!"

I give Johnny a fierce glare and he just smirks. He really needs to learn to take me seriously. I've got a temper of my own.

I glance up at the two simulators as Bruiser and the old Oozma race towards them. The rooms are painted in each team's colors on the inside and the outside they boast each team's letters. ROR's letters are more faded than Oozma's. They probably just painted the Oozma's.

I watch our screen and watch Bruiser be caught off guard by all the toys, tripping and falling at the foot of the bed. Though he gives his best snarl, though the resulting score is definitely not one to ROR's standards. I look over to the OK screen and watch at the old guy drops of the ceiling, snarling at the simulator, resulting in a much better score for Oozma. They both come out and the old guy has a much more confident swagger as he says something to Bruiser, his smirk extremely smug. I hear Johnny growl to himself, his jaw clenched and eyes burning daggers into Bruiser's skull. I have to admit, Johnny is pretty hot when he's mad.

Pearson calls for the next scarers after the rooms have been reset and Chet heads for the starting line alongside the two-headed orange monster. I watch as the siamese monster gives himself an intricate high-five and I can't help but smile at their confidence.

They run up to the simulators and Chet is much more careful with his foot-work, landing the RORs a much better second scare, filling the bar up more than halfway. I look to the Oozmas and the little guys manage to get a pretty decent score as well. They are holding on pretty well at the moment, despite us now being in the lead, not by much though.

The refs begin the process of resetting the simulators and I notice Johnny walking up to me. "Hey," He gives me a sweet smile. "You okay with going next?"

I swallow, feeling myself become really nervous. I've never scared in front of this many monsters before. I really don't want to screw us over. I look over to the simulators and see that the little marshmallow-looking monster is at the starting line. "O- okay," I walk up to the starting line, my hands interlaced together. I know for a fact I do not look ready for this. I stare ahead, breathing in and out as evenly as I can. I hear footsteps approaching me.

"Hold on a second," Johnny's voice calling to the refs fills my head as he walks over to me, kneeling in front of me. He's so much bigger when he's only inches away from me. "Hey," He puts his hand under my chin, pushing my face up to look him in the eye. "Don't worry about being perfect. Just go and do what you do best. Don't think about us or even me." His smile is so genuine, it's like I'm looking at a whole other monster. "Show them those sparks." I let a small laugh out and he gives my cheek a quick rub with his thumb before standing up and nodding to the ref, looking back to me, his smirk full of confidence. He holds out his fist. "Give them hell, babe."

I feel my face flush at the sound of him calling me babe. He winks at me as he backs up to the rest of the RORs, crossing his arms. I look forward and feel a new rush of energy as the lights begin to countdown and the buzzer goes off.

I take off on all fours, my tail flying behind me and I leap onto the platform, yanking the child's file from the holder beside the door. I scan it over. Four-year-old afraid of lizards… and fire. My eyes go wide. Great, another specialized scare. I swear they do this to me on purpose. I look back to the starting area and see Johnny watching me carefully, his face serious. I breathe out, throwing the folder back in its spot and opening the door.

I glance around inside and see all the toys scattered across the floor. I make sure to close the door behind me before crouching down on all fours once more. I creep forward, placing my feet carefully between the menacing little objects. I narrow my eyes at the bed, flicking my tongue in and out, giving me a better visual of the darkened room. I reach the foot of the bed, opening my mouth, feeling the warmth beginning to build in the back of my throat. I notice the blue light glowing off the wood of the bed and am overcome with a sudden intensity as I quickly climb up onto the bed. I open my jaws more, letting out a loud high-pitched roar, blue flames bursting forward from my mouth in a bright cloud around my face. The simulator child shoots up, shrieking in my face and I feel myself flinch, causing my flames to stop and I almost fall to the floor, but I catch myself and snarl at the little wooden freak.

I step out of the simulator and cough, smoke billowing from my nostrils and my throat. I look out and see everyone is cheering like crazy and I see Johnny smiling at me, nodding. I walk back to our spot and notice that I scored better than Chet. The little marshmallow didn't do so bad himself though.

"Those were a little more than just sparks," Johnny says, approaching me with his arms crossed. He looks proud. "Guess you really did give them hell."

I laugh and I can't help but lean against him, breathing a sigh of relief. He gives my arm a gentle rub before softly pushing me off him. "Pay attention," He says, pointing to Jav as he enters the simulator.

I watch our little bug brother creep across the floor, rising up above the bed, letting out a creepy hissing sound, his bar shooting up to where mine is. To be honest, if I woke up to that I would scream too. That bug is just extra creepy. Maybe it's because he's a bug.

I lean back against Johnny and feel myself zone out as Boggs walks up to the starting line. I just kind of want to sleep now. Now that I've played my part I just feel ready to collapse.

I am suddenly jolted back to reality when I'm suddenly knocked over by someone and I look up to see a white and pink heart covered Boggs, looking up at Johnny, who looks ready to rip the little lizard's head off. "Hearts?!" He shouts, throwing his arms out. Randy looks down to his scales and back up to the rest of the RORs as they scold him for blowing his scare. Johnny just looks ready to cook the little guy, his shoulders tense and his fists clenched. I look up at the scoreboard and see that Randy's flop causes us to be tied with Oozma.

I notice Johnny hold his hand out to me, his eyes still furious. "You okay?"

I take his hand. "I'm alright." I brush myself off and look at Johnny, clearly seething. "What about you?"

"We'll see," He says, popping his neck before walking up to the starting line, crouching down on all fours. I feel a tingling excitement in my stomach. I'm actually going to get to watch Johnny scare. This is really big for me.

Mike takes his place beside Johnny and if I were the little green guy I would be ready to run for the hills being right next to the top scarer in the school. Not to mention Johnny is probably six times Mike's size. I watch Johnny say something to Mike, causing the little ball to look wary.

The buzzer goes off and Johnny leaps forward, leaving Mike sprinting behind him. I keep my eye on my fiancé as he quickly scans over his folder before barging into the room. He lowers himself to walk the way I did, stepping over each object carefully. He definitely looks scary creeping forward in that light. I watch him slow down, the whites of his eyes bright against his dark fur. He almost looks possessed. Without warning he leaps up onto the bed, letting out the most demonic sounding roar I've ever heard. I find myself startled by it as well, watching as he saunters out of the simulator, holding his arms up, taking in the cheers. I look up at his score and it's almost full.

"Amazing performance by Worthington!" Pearson shouts over the speakers.

"The Oozmas will need a record breaking scare to win this!" Claire adds as the crowd calms down.

Johnny walks up to me, lifting me up and spinning me around. "You ready to win this?"

I smile, "I am." I press my forehead to his, looking deep into those lovely violet eyes. Johnny gets closer ready to kiss me but then he stops when the sound of confetti shooting off and insane cheering fills the arena. He sets me down and looks ready to faint when he sees that Mike's bar is all the way full. "No fucking way." He says, his jaw dropping.

I feel myself become overcome with surprise as everyone shoves past us to congratulate the OKs. I hear Claire shouting in excitement over the speakers and watch her as she shoves Pearson to the ground. She completely lost all of her chill for once.

I look up to Johnny and the shock on his face is replaced by a skeptical glare, his arms crossed over his puffed out chest. "This can't be right."

I shrug. "The little guy must have some secret ability."

Johnny shakes his head, his expression hardening. "Come on." He turns around and begins walking away, not waiting for any of us to follow.

I become lost among all the chaos of the crowd. I keep looking around for those tall mahogany horns but can't seem to locate them. I start shoving myself past people, ignoring the glares and rude comments.

I soon spot Johnny and the rest of the RORs talking to Sulley. Johnny's smirk gracing his features once more. Chet seems to be rambling excitedly when Sulley suddenly shoves past Johnny, handing him the trophy and what looks like his ROR jacket.

"Hey," Johnny calls to the blue monster. "Where are you going?" He looks to Chet, his confusion clear.

I walk up to them. "What was that about?"

Johnny shrugs, "Who knows," He glances at the trophy in his hands. He looks almost sad. "My senior year and we lost to a bunch of scare school drop-outs." He growls, throwing the trophy to the ground.

Well there you guys have it! Sorry about the late updates, I'm just busy with life, ya know? I still love this fic so much, it's pathetic but I don't care. Also, I imagine Johnny was a lot more upset about losing than the movie lead to believe, he just seemed way too okay with it. Anyway, it's late so don't forget to leave your wonderful feedback and I will see you guys in the next chapter when Johnny and the RORs find out that Sulley cheated. Oh no! Thanks for your continued support, it means a lot to me! Thank you, you guys! Until next chapter! Bye-bye!
