Chapter 18 : The Destruction of the Monsters

Suddenly the lights went out and the music stopped. The crowd on the dance floor looked around, confused. From the DJ booth, the DJ began to raise his voice. "Hey ,guys , you're not allowed up here. The DJ booth is…" he said. Then there was a scream and a thud.

When the lights came back on, Van Helsing's face was projected on large screens. The monsters shuddered in fear.

No. Tinkles, quiet, Dennis and the kids said Tinkles .

"Who is this?" Drac asked.

Over the loudspeaker and displays, Van Helsing responded directly to Drac. "I know you recognize me: your greatest rival!"

Dracula thought of which rival. "Oh, right. You owned the holiday inn down by the airport."

"No… it is I, Abraham Van Helsing , James Quinston, Kitty Cartwright, Quincy Parker !"

"Van Helsing? After all these years." Drac joked. "You look… awful."

Van Helsing was sick for the vampire's joke, "Always with the quick insults, huh? Well, these will shut you up, and all monsters!" he said, taking out the devices .

Drac recognized it. "Uh, that's just Eunuch's family heirloom thingie."

Van Helsing laughed as Eunuch appeared from her hiding place, "Good one, Eunuch ," he said.

Drac was confuse how Van Helsing and Eunuch know each other, "Eunuch ?"

"You fool!" Van Helsing crowed. "Not only is she the ship's captain, but she also happens to be…" he chuckled excitingly and turned to Eunuch , "Wait… you tell him."

A brokenhearted Eunuch looked at Drac's eyes, and confessed, "I'm his great-granddaughter. I'm Eunuch Van Helsing."

Dracula, Mavis, and Ericka gasped.

"I knew there was something wrong with her!" Mavis whispered.

"Told ya!" Ericka nudged to Mavis.

"I… see what happened… I…" Eunuch tried to explain.

"Mommy what are doing to my friends ",Nosepicker said.

"I want a divorce",Donald Cartwright demanded.

"But",Kitty Cartwright said

"We are through Kitty" Donald said angrily.

"Fine"Kitty said angrily.

Van Helsing didn't let her explain as he went on. "Now that we're all caught up, let's get back to the dying. Behold. The keys to the demise of all monsters," He opened the device, which was a canister, and took out a . He laid it on the piano. It was a sheet music.

Van Helsing cracked his fingers and read what's in the sheet. "Let's see here." He began to play the music while Quincy put the orb was sitting on the keyboard. "Listen to the melody of your destruction." He turned up the volume of the beat.

The music traveled underwater to where the Kraken was, sleeping on his bed. He heard the beat and was hypnotized. His eyes turned glowing red, and he turned into an evil creature. He rose up behind Van Helsing and Eunuch.

Kelsey smiled when she saw the same singing Kraken who welcomed them earlier, "Hey, look! It's the krak…" Her smiled turned down when she realized the Kraken looked so scary.

Everyone in the dance floor looked on in fear.

When the Kraken got out from the water, Van Helsing kept playing the music and the Kraken roared.

"Everybody out, now!" Drac yelled.

The monsters ran out to the bridge to escape. The Kraken attacked by destroying the bridge with his tentacle. The monsters from running when they reached the dead end.

"We're trap! Everybody back!" Frank yelled.

The monsters went back as they kept running, avoiding the tentacles.

Griffin watched the tentacle fall towards him. Murray grabbed the Invisible Man's hand to save him. The mummy was quite slow to run because of his weight. Johnny and Ericka's families ran for their lives.

Gene has no fear of the Kraken at all. In fact, he admired the view, like a tentacle is coming towards him.

"Uncle Gene, what are you doing?!" Lydia shouted when he noticed Gene didn't scram and run for his life.

"It's like in the video game." Gene sighed, missing his games.

Lydia rolled her eyes and push Gene out of the way, "You should stay away from video games more often."

Diane was left on the floor, running around like a coward chicken, which she was.

Wendy and Pedro tried to run, but a tentacle grabbed them. But Gene Dracula came up to them and roll onto the tentacle and pick them up.

When the Kraken hammered his tentacle again on the dance floor, Hank, Alex,Evan, and Gina were launched in the air and screamed.

"MY BABIES !" Eunice screamed for her kids.

Just then, before the kids fell and reach the floor, Frank caught all his children in his arms like they were footballs

Another tentacle grabbed Dennis, Martha,Willie,Winnie,Parker,Troy,Conner, and Ava, but luckily, Tinkles bit the tentacle, freeing the children. They cheered happily for the giant puppy.

Dracula saw the whole thing. The monsters can't escape, and his friends were trying their best to fight the kraken and protect the monsters. He couldn't see them all suffer.

Drac growled. He had to stop the madman, once and for all. "This has to stop now!" he flew towards van Helsing.

"Drac, no!" Johnny warned him, but the Kraken grabbed Drac in midair.

The Kraken squeezed him tightly with a giant tentacle. Drac struggled to break free, changed form into a bat to fly away—anything—but the Kraken caught him again and his hold on him was too strong.

"Ahhh!" yelled Drac, in pain.

Mavis and Ericka heard his cry and saw him captured.

"Dad!" Mavis yelled.

"Drac!" Ericka shouted.

They tried to attack the Kraken, Van Helsing and Eunuch to save Dracula, but the Kraken held them down. Ericka used her strength and tried to loosen up the grip of the tentacle.

"Mavis! Ericka!" Drac noticed his daughter and wife got hurt and held down.

Van Helsing gloated. "Time for the 'immortal' Dracula to die."

Ericka looked at Drac helplessly. She felt guilty after Drac had been through with her.

Van Helsing kept playing the music. The Kraken used his spare tentacles to cover Drac, ready to suffocate him.

"Dad!" Mavis screamed, trying to free herself from the tentacle, but the Kraken's grip was too strong.

"Drac!" Ericka tried. She tried to free herself from the tentacles too, but she stayed focus of loosening the tentacle's can't even think quickly.

When the Kraken trapped Dracula inside of his tentacles, Eunuch couldn't bear to watch Drac get killed. He saved her life before, then she'll return the favor, "No!" She yelled as She jumped off the DJ booth.

"Eunuch !" Van Helsing,Kitty, James,Quincy cried, wondering why his great-granddaughter left him and ran off.

Eunuch landed on the floor and ran up to the Kraken's tentacle.

Dennis noticed this, and realized Eunuch was going to save his grandfather. He also realized she needs help. "Bob, help!" He called Tinkles.

The giant puppy heard him as he rushed off to help Eunuch , dropping his hat in the process.

Mavis saw the hat and looked at the puppy. She recognized him that he was Tinkles in disguise. "Tinkles?!" Then she glared at her kids . "Dennis ,Martha ?"

Dennis and Martha thought of a cover up, so Mavis wouldn't think he,Martha , Willie and Winnie are responsible for bringing Tinkles on the cruise, "Oh no. Bob is Tinkles? How did he get here?" He pretended he has no clue of it, "Thank goodness, he did. Let's look."

Removing his disguise, Tinkles chased after Eunuch, and lifted her up to ride on him. Eunuch didn't know how or why this puppy was helping her, but she accepted he was a handful. When they were high enough, Eunuch noticed that the tentacles were tightened up. Eunuch panicked that she might not gonna make it to save Drac. Tinkles launched her in the air, and Eunuch used her martial art skills to kick the Kraken on the eye, making the large sea creature growl in pain, dropping the now lifeless Dracula.

Eunuch landed on the tentacle, jumped off, and caught Dracula in mid-air, much to Mavis and Ericka 's surprise as they watched her.

Eunuch,Danny and Drac fell together, sliding off the dance floor, and Eunuch held on the ledge while grabbing the still unconscious Drac with her spare hand. All of the sudden, the monsters stopped scattering and the I teams stopped moving and attacking as they all watched Eunuch saving Drac when they held on the ledge.

"You can't do this! You're wrong about monsters!" Eunuch told her great-grandfather. "Dracula. He saved my life."

"What?" Van Helsing,Cartwright,Parker,Quinstonreplied, even though they had heard every word.

She turned away from him, and toward Drac. "We're so sorry, Drac. We were trying to kill you this whole time, but then we realized how wrong we were . How wrong all of this is."

Drac didn't reply. His eyes were closed, and it wasn't clear if he could even hear her.

While she was listening, Mavis felt quite guilty of misjudging Eunuch when she saw her and Drac together and thought Eunuch was trying to kill him. Mavis thought right though, but she saw how Ericka realized she was wrong and monsters weren't so bad after all. Ericka was listening too with her teary eyes. She had the same feeling as Mavis. Ericka elt guilty of ruining the moments between Drac and Eunuch .

Eunuch turned back to Van Helsing. "They're not animals! They have families, they care about each other. They laugh, they argue, they love, and they protect each other, just like we humans do."

"Lies!" James hollered.

"I know because I... I zinged!" Ericka insisted.

At that, Drac's eyes popped open

"I zinged with Danny", Eunuch said.

"Zing? What's a zing?" Van Helsing asked.

"It's a monster thing," Eunuch said, then added a dig. "You wouldn't understand."

"It's like true love!" Drac said, smiling and looking much more alive.

Van Helsing,Kitty Cartwright, James Quinston,Quincy Parker was horrified. "Love!" he scoffed, as if love didn't matter to them at all. He played a key as the Kraken swung his tentacle to Drac and Eunuch , and the two fell high above the water "Well, I guess the legacy ends with us. That's an awkward ending. Hehe." He chuckled.

"Nope!" Eunuch 's voice was heard as Dracula carried her and levitated himself back on the dancefloor, "It's time to start a new legacy!"

"A monster-human legacy," Drac pitched in.
