Chapter 9


Wes eventually came out of his room thirty minutes after Phantom had left, he opened the door slowly and looked out to see if he was there and then walked out and began heading down the hallway. Jack who was supposed to be keeping an eye out was fast asleep until Jazz came along and noticed.

--

"DAD! WAKE UP!" Jazz shouted.

--

Jack jumped and asked, "What-what is it?"

--

Jazz scoffed and turned his head towards Wes, Jack's eyes widened with shock and exclaimed, "He has emerge!"

--

Wes headed down the staircase and saw the lights on through one of the doors and so he walked towards it, inside the door Maddie was placing Dani inside the cupboard with all the other tea cups.

--

"Come on Dani. It's time for you to go to bed." Maddie said.

--

"But I'm not sleepy!" Dani protested with a yawn. Maddie smiled and said, "Yes you are."

--

She shut the door and Dani fell fast asleep. She then heard a spoon being wacked on the bench, she turned to see Lunch Lady Ghost a little upset.

--

"I work and I slave all day long! And for what? My culinary masterpiece gone to waste!" Lunch Lady exclaimed on the brink of tears as she looked at her cooked food.

--

"Oh stop your crying! It's been a long night for all of us." Maddie said.

--

"Well if you ask me she was just being stubborn! After all he did say please." Clockwork said.

--

"But if Phantom doesn't learn to control that temper, he'll never break the spell." Maddie said.

--

They all then stopped talking immediately as they heard Wes walk in. Clockwork put on a smiled and said, "Splendid to see out and about. I am Clockwork head of the house hold."

--

Jack then came rushing in and tripped over right at Wes's feet. Clockwork groaned and said, "This is Jack."

--

Jack stood back up and said, "A pleasure to meet you young man."

--

"Is there anything we can do to make your stay more comfortable?" Clockwork asked.

--

"I guess I'm a little hungry if that's okay. Just to let you know, I'm kinda a Vegetarian.." Wes said with a bit of shyness at the last part.

--

"Really? He's hungry! Well Lunch Lady start cooking and make sure it's to his dietary needs, break out the silver and the china." Maddie said in excitement and everyone began to get everything ready.

--

"Remember what Phantom said!" Clockwork pressed through gritted teeth. Maddie scoffed and said, "Oh posh! I'm not going to let the poor boy go hungry."

--

"Clockwork! He's not a prisoner! He's our guest and we must make her feel welcome here. Come with me Wes and I'll take you to the dining room." Jack said.

--

"Okay but keep it down. If Phantom finds out about this it'll be our necks." Clockwork said as Wes left the kitchen with Jack holding the door open.

--

"Of course! But what is dinner without a little music." Jack said with a smirk and then slammed the door sending Clockwork to the ground who asked in shock, "Music?!"

--

Wes followed Jack to the long dining table and stood at the end and watched as he stood in the middle of it with now a spotlight shining down upon him. A chair then came right up behind Wes and he sat down.

--

"Ma Monsieur, it is with deepest pride and greatest pleasure that we welcome you tonight and now, we invite you to relax let us pull up a chair as the dining room proudly presents, your dinner!" Jack said as the dishes appeared on the table. Wes was just amazed.

--

JACK

Be our guest! Be our guest!

--

Put our service to the test

--

Tie your napkin 'round your neck, Monsieur

--

Jack and the other dishes began to dance. The chair was about to tie a napkin around Wes's neck, but he politely stopped it and placed it on his lap.

--

And we'll provide the rest

--

Soup du jour

--

Hot hors d'oeuvres

--

Why, we only live to serve

--

Try the grey stuff

--

It's delicious!

--

A pot of soup came up in front of Wes and poured some of its contents in a bowl for him. A ghost named Kitty came up to Wes with a plate of different types of appetizers, he picked one up that had some sort of grey cream on it and tried it, he smiled and though it was really good.

--

Don't believe me? Ask the dishes

--

They can sing, they can dance

--

After all, Mr, this is France

--

A bunch of plates and forks came out of a cupboard and danced around until they formed the shape of the Eifel Tower in Paris.

--

And a dinner here is never second best

--

Go on, unfold your menu

--

Take a glance and then you'll

--

Be our guest

--

Oui, our guest

--

Be our guest!

--

More food came out and Wes gave each one a try well except the ones that had any meat in them, Clockwork ran into the kitchen and did his best to try and get all of them to keep the noise down, but so far it wasn't working as they just shoved him away.

--

ALL

Beef ragout

--

Cheese soufflé

--

Pie and pudding "en flambé"

--

JACK

We'll prepare and serve with flair

--

A culinary cabaret!

--

Bertrand came into the dining hall and transformed into many different shapes and sizes that made Wes laugh and applaud. Bertrand bowed and walked away, a punch bowl was placed in the middle of the table and some forks jumped in and started doing some synchronized swimming.

--

You're alone

--

And you're scared

--

But the banquet's all prepared

--

No one's gloomy or complaining

--

While the flatware's entertaining

--

Jack was sprouted into the air on a tray by a small fountain coming from the bowl, Jack then performed some tricks with his candles.

--

We tell jokes! I do tricks

--

With my fellow candlesticks

--

ALL

And it's all in perfect taste

--

That you can bet

--

Come on and lift your glass

--

You've won your own free pass

--

To be our guest

--

Some bear mugs started doing some somersaults in the air. Clockwork once again tried to stop them all and get them to be quiet, but Jack just burned his spectral tail a little bit and sent him flying in the air in pain.

--

If you're stressed

--

Its fine dining we suggest

--

Be our guest! Be our guest! Be our guest!

--

Clockwork landed in the middle of the table in his child form as Jack just cuddled up to him, earning him a strange look from the time ghost.

--

Life is so unnerving

--

For a servant who's not serving

--

He's not whole without a soul to wait upon

--

Ah, those good old days when we were useful...

--

Suddenly those good old days are gone

--

Ten years we've been rusting

--

Needing so much more than dusting

--

Needing exercise, a chance to use our skills!

--

Most days we just lay around the castle

--

Flabby, fat and lazy

--

Jack gave Clockwork a mischievous smirk and then threw him off the table. Maddie was in the kitchen getting herself ready to serve some tea to Wes, she had herself cleaned up, tea all boiled and set on a tray with Dani.

--

MADDIE

It's a guest! It's a guest!

--

Sakes alive, well I'll be blessed!

--

Wine's been poured and thank the Lord

--

I've had the napkins freshly pressed

--

With dessert, he'll want tea

--

And my dear that's fine with me

--

While the cups do their soft-shoeing'

--

I'll be bubbling, I'll be brewing

--

I'll get warm, piping hot

--

Heaven's sakes! Is that a spot?

--

Clean it up! We want the company impressed

--

They came out of the kitchen on the tray and Maddie poured some tea in Dani which Sam accepted with a grateful smile.

--

We've got a lot to do!

--

Is it one lump or two?

--

For you, our guest!

--

ALL

He's our guest!

--

MADDIE

He's our guest!

--

ALL

He's our guest!

--

Be our guest! Be our guest!

--

Our command is your request

--

Clockwork got back up in his adult form and tried once more, only to be stomped on by Jazz and the other feather dusters.

--

It's been years since we've had anybody here

--

And we're obsessed

--

With your meal, with your ease

--

Yes, indeed, we aim to please

--

While the candlelight's still glowing

--

Let us help you, we'll keep going

--

All the candle sticks lit up and straightened up to reveal Jack with all the other dishes and other ghosts who lived in the castle doing the Can-Can and other different types of dancing.

--

Course by course, one by one

--

'Til you shout, "Enough! I'm done!"

--

Then we'll sing you off to sleep as you digest

--

Tonight you'll prop your feet up

--

But for now, let's eat up

--

Be our guest!

--

Be our guest!

--

Clockwork was about to try again but stopped and gave up, he smiled a little bit and then decided to join in the fun and danced around a bit.

--

Be our guest!

--

Please, be our guest!

--

Jack and everyone finished and bowed in front of Wes who applauded and smiled, feeling a whole lot better than before. Maybe Maddie was right, maybe things will get better in time.
