ghoul school part 11, chapter 11 The sneaking boy
With The night still being very young, and the moon still High in the night sky, it was rather peaceful if one were to observe it, however, on this night, there was going be thievery Taking place, thievery for something special , something to be used for dark and vile intentions, and all done so by the Guise of a young boy controlled by a vile mind not his own.
Wilbie's footsteps crunched along the dirt path as he soon found himself approaching the large stone wall and iron gates of the Grimwood Ghoul school, A task he had done in the dark, under the orders of revolta, who had complete control over him, every thing he did, was the result of her bidding, he had no choice but to follow her, and now that he was, she was going to get what she had been wanting, just inside that school is the prize she seeks, and this boy is going to be pawn in playing a part to her victory,
wilbe stopped at the iron gates and stood there for a moment, a simple trance was all that appeared on his face, showing, no signs of emotion of any sort,
revolta watched the boy through the eyes of psych who flew close observing his every action.
" alright, this it, he has made it to the school, now all he must do is enter inside, " revolta said with a grin,
" how do you plan to do that ? the wall and the gate, not to mention the large moat surrounding the school..I don't think the boy could just...pass those with ease. " creeper said..
" No need and worry creeper, I have a plan, psych will be assisting him for those, he can use his web to string up a Rope for him to climb up" she said in gruff tone. " Okay boy, you need to get over that wall ! " she said into the wand, Physh will- " she began to explain her plan to him, however as she did
wilbie was staring up at the large gate, then began to shift his eyes and look around, he looked over to his right and saw the large vines he had used to get onto the school wall the very first day...he grinned a little evilly as he made his way over to it, once he had, he looked up and gripped the vines hard, and began to make his way up them once again,.
psych soon flew by him and followed him up as he did,
" well,,,looks as those this boy seems to know his way around no problem, " revolta said with a smirk,
wilbie climb until he reached the top once again and stood up on the ledge as he had,he was over looking the school and the yard, he grinned as darted he eyes around the wall, looking for a way to get down, he then noticed more vines that were overgrowing on the opposite side of the wall, he made his way over to it and grabbed hold of one of the vines, he gave it a tug, then proceeded to let himself climb down the wall, by holding onto the vine with both hands and keeping his feet on the wall, he had made it until his feet had touch the grass below, wilbie then let go and turned to face the school as psych had flown over and flutter next to him,
" Excellent, that task now done,, now go to the school, and get across the moat, Pysch will be there to assist you with that, " Revolta said speaking into her wand again.
wilbie nodded as he then made his way through the school yard, and over to the large Moat, he stared down into it as he could see the fin of the two headed shark that Dwelled in there,
wilbie then looked up at the large draw bridge that was risen up to keep intruders, much like himself out,
" alright Psych, you got this part, " Revolta said again,
Psych nodded and flew right over the Moat and over to the draw bridge. He flew down and landed
a wooden railing on the school's Porch, then in a series of swift movements, he began to string a stream of web around the railing and then flew it over to the other end of the remote and string up to to a tree that was just at the opposite end,, He went back and forth a few times making sure to secure it tight, making it sturdy, Psych then landed on the tree branch admiring his work,
" good, good my spider bat, Now boy, you can get across and into the school, " revolta said rubbing to of her hands,
wilbie nodded and took hold of the thick long spiderweb, he hung under it and wrapped his legs around it, and he then began to shimmy across the web and over the Moat, all while the Two headed shark circled under him...it popped it's head's out and attempted to snap at him, missing him by just a few inches. but however wilbie showed no reaction to it and just continued to make his way across the Moat,, and once he reached the other end, he grabbed a hold of the wooden railing on the porch and quickly swung himself on to it and then hoisted himself up, and tossed himself over the rail and onto the porch, to which he landed with a light thud,
" hmm, this boy's a lot more nimble then I thought, I'm glad we decided to use him, " revolta chuckled with glee her plan was working so well thus far.
" Now all he has to do is get inside the school " creeper said,,
wilbie stood up and looked around, his first action was to creep up to the door and and check to see if it was locked, to which much to revolta and creepers surprise, it was not, the door slowly creaked open a bit, but wilbie did not enter.
" well, that it's funny how easy this place would be to get into really," Revolta said itching her hand on her head, well not matter no need to try and break the lock now, " she said " this only going to make this easier for us, " revolta said, " Now boy, into the school. and find the Spell book, " she barked more orders at him,
wilbie nodded and pushed the door open further to which it let out a long and eerie creak, but once he opened it, he quickly stepped inside and into the dimly lit Foyer of the school, he let the door shut behind him sending he room into even more darkness, to which he stood there awaiting more orders from revolta,
" alright let me think " revolta said stroking her chin, " the spell book, it should be somewhere in the school's library " she explained, " Find the library first, i'll explain were it is when you get their, and remember, do not get caught, though everyone in this school should be asleep "
wilbie once again nodded and began to creep his way further into the school, and into the darken Halls, he made his way past many of the tall armored knights he had seen his first day here, which they looked even more eerie in the dim light and slight moonlight that shined in through the windows,
in fact, the entire school just seemed have a much more foreboding and eerie feel to it, despite it already being so much if wilbie wasn't under the mind control of revolta, he would have loved to explore the grimwood manor in it's late night hours, it would be something he'd love to experience, But of course now, that was the last thing on his mind, the only thing he could think was carrying out revolta's orders,
wilbie contued to make his way down the empty corridors of the school, carefully trying not to make a noise, however every step he made would cause the old flooring of this school to make the floor boards creak...
...
Meanwhile...
The ghouls all slept peacefully in there rooms, the moon light shining brightly into onto their bed sheets, not a single one of them aware that there was an intruder within the schools walls,
Mathches how ever was kicking in his sleep, apparently dreaming about chasing something, he would scamper his little legs in the air and grunt as he did, How ever his dreaming was interrupted as he heard the sound of something crashing on another room to which it was wilbie who had accidentally bumped into a table and knocked a flower vase that was on top, thankfully for him it did not break on impact, but it did make that loud thud to which he had hoped did not disturb anyone, he carefully picked it back up and set it down on the table, looking around to make sure it was all clear, he began to make his way around the school some more,
Matched had lifted his head up and looked around, he was sure that was something loud he had heard, but he wasn't too sure what that could have been, he then heard the sound of someone in another room walking around, he stepped out of his bed and decided to investigate the sound, after all, being the guard dragon of the school, it was his job to make sure know one would come in and steal or harm anything, or steal any thing of his specially,
he made his way down the hall and towards the sound, he began sniffing the air to catch sense of the intruder, and to see if it was anyone he recognized.
Wilbie passed by many doors in the Hall, but and opened plenty of them, However none of them had the library inside,,
" hmm, were was that cursed room ? " revolt said rubbing her chin, she pondered for a moment, she had to remember were the library was,
" just think back revolta, picture it in your head, the libary, were it would be, " creeper said trying to help,
" hush creeper, I'm thinking, hmm...it's, it's close by I think, not too far from were the boy is " she said snapping her finger, " I think I now were it is, it should be just down the hall and too the right, ! " she exclaimed,
Just then they could hear a slight growling sound, they both looked back into the cauldron to see matches was standing a few feet away from wilbie, growling at him,
" oh dear , I think that's that school's pesky dragon " creeper said with a hint of concern and annoyance,
" so it is, well we can't let that stop us, " revolta said sounding not as concerned,
" but that dragon is a hot head, remember that he took part in destroying your castle, what chance does fragile Human boy have against something like that ? "
revolta rubbed her chin, creeper was right, that dragon may be small, but it sure could do a lot of damage if it wanted, she was going to have to think of a way to beat this thing, she then grabbed her wand and spoke into it, "
" Boy, don't let that dragon get in your way, go the potion room now ! " and barked
Wilbie nodded at his know order then turned and ran off, away from matches, who at first looked surprised to see wilbie take off, but then then started growling again and began to pursuit him,
wilbie quickly mad his way down the corridors and a fast and swift speed, trying to avoid making too much noise as he did, while matches stayed Hot on his trail, the dragon recognized wilbie but was not to sure why the boy was sneaking about in the school, friend or not of the ghouls, he was not going to let him do something that could result in causing Harm to anyone, so he was going to stop this human intruder at any cost,
Matches snarled as he gave chase, trying his best to keep up with wilbie, He saw that the boy was making his way into the potions classroom, were he know the boy would be cornered, matched grinned devilishly knowing he'd have the boy caught on there,,
he then saw wilbie enter the room and disappear out of sight, matches quickly ran faster and straight into the room, he stopped dead in his tracks and he began to look around,
How ever he notice the room was empty,..the boy did not appear to be in here,..matched began to growl and sniff around..knowing the boy must be hiding from him...the dragon began walking in circles as he did,...just then the door to the room closed shut, causing Matches to look up and see wilbie standing there, with a devilish grin on his face and a glass beaker in his hand, and empty one ?...
Matches took a stance as he growled at him., baring all his sharp teeth, however wilbie showed know concern to this, and just continued to grin devilishly,
Matches growled some more at this and began to look as those he was read to pounce on him, and while he did that, the little dragon began to turn a slight shade of red and smoke began to flow it of his nostrils,
wilbie how ever still showed no sign of concern as he just grin'd sinister at him,
matches began to stamp his front paws and snarl some more, and then in a second he took a deep breath and held it there for a moment, and then exhaled, letting out a large stream of flames that shout right out of his mouth and straight towards wilbie there was a bright flash in the room that soon disappeared, and once it all cleared, Matches then went back to his natural green colour, bur soon notice that the Human boy was no longing standing there, instead there was just a burnt mark from his flames where he once stood,
Matches cocked his head in confusion, he was not expecting that to have Happened, but it look to him like he just...incinerated the boy...which is something he's never done before with his flame breath. Most of the time he just singes a person slightly .He was not sure what to make or even feel about this.
just then he heard the sound of something shuffling around Next to him, he looked over to see wilbie standing on top of a chemistry table, grinning at him with a almost smug look still with the beaker in hand as he then let it drop the table. as matches cocked his head.
Matches was a bit shocked at the boys sudden speed,,and admitted was a little relived that he did turn the boy into a pile of ashes, but soon became defensive when he know the boy was still up to know good,
wiblie closed his eyes for a second and then let out a terrifying grin and stared down at matches, Unknown to the dragon, the beaker he had was filled with the potion of the ghoul girls had brewed earlier this week with miss grimwood, the very one that'd boast anyone's agility and wilbie had just taken a hefty dose of it.
wilbie grinned some more with a twisted look knowing the dragon would be very little of a problem now and procced to smugly grin at the green lizard., this was enough make matches feel even more uneasy so he quickly took in another inhale, turning red once again as he did, and let out another gust of flames at the boy,
who quickly jumped into the air and did a front flip right over the dragon, landing not to far behind him, this cause matches to quickly turn around with shocked expression,
matches shook his head and began to release more fire balls at him,
only to which wilbie quickly dodged them all with little effort,
Matches was surprised by the boys incredible speed,
this went on for a few ore seconds before Matches need too catch his breath...he soon went back to his normal shade of green again, he stood there with his tongue hanging out, blowing fire constantly took a lot out of him. He then stood up and looked around, and the notice wilbie stand right by him with another twisted grin, matches once again got defensive and began to turn red again, and just before he could blow another breath of fire, he suddenly felt something cold wash over him, completely drowning out id fire, he soon realized that wilbie had drenched him with a bucket of cold water...
Matches cough a bit then let out a small puff of smoke the died out quickly,..matches growled at wilbie angrily . wibie just smirked with an amused look and swiftly jammed the Bucket on top of matches Head,, cutting off matches muffles grunts and temporally blinding him,, wilbie then brushed himself off and turned around to head out of the room, leaving Matches to struggle to try an take the Bucket off his head,,,
...
sibella opened her eyes after be awoken from her sleep. she sat up in her coffin like bed rubbing her eyes, she glanced around her room. she was sure she had heard something going on downstairs, but at first did not let it bother her, but she once again heard something sound like they were crashing around down stairs, and she could not ignore it no more, she was going to investigate this
she hopped out of bed and quickly slipped on her dress over her night gown and made her way over her to door and opened it,
she stepped out into the Hall, she glanced around and heard something coming from the other end of the Hall,
she quickly went over to investigate and darted down the hall while being light on her feet. she then placed herself up against a wall, and listened, just around the corner where she stood, she was sure she could have heard something, she wasn't sure who it was, but she was not going to let who ever it was known that she was awake,she peeked around the corner and saw the stairwell down, she took a deep breath and was about to go down to investigate, when suddenly she heard someone call out to her,
" Sibella ? "
sibella nearly jumped when she heard the voice come out of the darkness, she turned around she noticed winnie stand there wearing her standard blue dress, staring at her with a look of confusion,
" winine ? what are you doing up ? " sibella asked.
" huh..I should be asking you the same thing, " winnie said crossing her arms, " going out to sneak a midnight snack I bet, and you told me you were trying to watch your figure...but I caught you ." winnie said with a smirk
sibellea rolled here eyes, " winnie,"
" Hey hey, no worries, I sneak a bite every night, so I guess we're both guilty, you mustn't worry so much about your figure all the time, " winnie said sound a little proud of that,
" winnie, No...I'm not going for a midnight bite...and I don't worry about my figure all the time,." sibella said placing her hands on her hips, " anyway I thought heard something downstairs shuffling around, so I am going to check it out, "
winnie cocked her head..the rubbed her chin, " wait...so that noise wasn't you I thought was you going to make a sandwich ? " winnie said,
sibella softly nodded, " I think someone is down stairs," she said,
" hmm, maybe it's one of the other girls, ? " winnie said,
" maybe...but to make sure..let's go check on the others, and then go check this out, " she said as she then turned into a bat and flew down the hall,
...
Wibie finally made his way over to the library and stood in the dead centre of the room,
many books shelves were all around him, he stood there awaiting more orders from revolta,
Revolta rubbed her hands again as she stared into the boiling pot, taking a look at the grimwood library a twisted grin swolt crept across her face...
" ah...the old library..I have not seen it iN years, " revolta chuckled, then turned to creeper with a devilishly happy smile,
" Now all we must do is get the book from out of here, and Break the Magical spell the keeps it from working outside the school, "
creeper nodded in agreement, " though..were in the library would that book be...it looks like there's hundreds in there, "
revolt rubbed her chin, the turned to the boiling cauldron again, " it's not going to be on a shelf with all the others...it's going to be hidden behind a bookshelf...in a chamber...I remember it being placed in a place like that. "
revolta then took her wand and spoke into to, " find a hidden chamber in the room, there will be a switch to activate behind some of these books...Find it !" she demanded,
wible quickly nodded and rand over to one of the shelves and began tossing the books out of the way, looking for the switch...
...
Back up stairs the Ghoul girls had all gathered..
" You sure you heard something ? " Elsa asked yawning a bit, " Cause I was just getting into a good sleep, "
" yes..me and winnie both heard it...someone is down there," sibella said,
" well, what do you suppose we do, go check it out " elsa said crossing her arms,
" look I don't know who or what it is...but I think it's best to do that, " she responded,
" well if it is an intruder...who'd break into the school anyway...and how...they'd have to get passed the moat after all, " stated
" yeah, they'd have to be extremely clever yo get in here,.
" that is true...but still to be on the safe side..we should go check," sibell then turned over to tanis who still looked sleepy herself, " you can wait up here if you want..and if anything does happen, you tell missgrimwood,
" sure thing sibella " tanis said.
" alright, can we just go find out now, " winnie said impatiently,
" yes yes, let's go" sibella said turning into a bat again and began fluttering down the stairs, with winnie elsa and phantasma following,
...
back down stairs,
wilbie had tossed a plentiful number of books on tot he floor, still looking for the switch to activate the chamber door the dream holder spell book would be in, but at the rate he was going, it would take all night it seemed, and just as revolta and creeper were getting impatient wilbie tossed aside a large book that gave way to a small circular shape on the wall, one with a gold skull imprinted on it,
revolta quickly eyes up the shape, "wait a minute...that's it..that's the switch ! " she yelled,
" activate it now ! "
wilbie looked at the button and pressed it with his index finger, and then stood back,, soon the entire bookshelf began to shake a bit, it then it started to move away slowly, revealing a dark chamber,...
wible stared at it for a moment before revolta told him to enter, to which He did, he made his way into the small chamber,, and that's when they saw it, standing on it's pedestal...was the book, the Dream Holder spell book,
revolta stared at it without saying anything,...she could not take her eyes off it...she seemed to be in a trance that would not allow her to look away,
creeper just looked up at her then back at the cauldron,..." is...is that it revolta ? " he said ,
revota didn't respond right away...but then slowly began to nod..." yes...yes it is...finally, " she said as she grinned evilly at the book,
it was something she had not expected to see in a long time, and it wasn't, but finally, after all these years, here she was seeing it again, she knew that soon, she would be holding it in her bare hands, and being using it again to gain what she want's,, all her waiting and planning was soon about to pay off...
to be continued
