Author's Note: Here it is, Hotel Transylvania 3 at last. It may take a while to redo all of it, so please have patience. To be honest, I don't really care for Hotel Transylvania anymore and I'm not too keen on doing it. I wish I had deleted my HT stories sooner after the movie first announced Dracula would get a girlfriend like Ericka. But I know I made a promise to do it, and I have to finish this.


One night in Hotel Transylvania, Dennis was bouncing off the walls, or rather levitating with his vampire powers, around a baffled Mavis and Johnny. Somehow or whatever the reason, he wanted to get a puppy as a pet so badly.

"Puppy, puppy, puppy, puppy!" he cheered, coming behind his parents to grasp their heads closer to his tiny head. "Mommy, Daddy, can we please get a puppy?" The little boy asked hopefully.

"Uhhh…" Johnny had no idea how to answer.

"I'm so sorry, honey," Mavis rejected his request calmly. "But taking care of a puppy is a lot of responsibility."

"What if we got you a little goldfish instead?"

Wailing, a dismayed Dennis transformed into a bat and flew off.

A little later, in Melany's bedroom, a pregnant Elona was spending time with her youngest daughter, Melany, at a tea party. They were drinking real tea in small cups and eating mini sandwiches and cakes. All of a sudden, a flash of green burst into the room. Elona and Melany were startled by the little bat's appearance.

"Nana Ellie! Nana Ellie!" Dennis squealed, changing back to normal and landed on the table, knocking over a few stuff to the floor, much to Melany's chagrin. "Can I have a puppy?" he asked.

"A puppy?" Elona was taken aback.

"Mommy and Daddy won't get me one, but you can get me a puppy, right?"

"I don't want a puppy here! They make a lot of messes, worse than the werewolves!" Melany growled, then gestured to the spilled tea and cups on the carpet. "Even you, since you ruined my tea set!"

"Melany, stop!" A firm Elona held up a hand to cease her daughter's ranting. Then she turned to her grandson. "I'm sorry, Dennis. We can't get you a puppy. It's a lot of work."

Wailing for a second time, poor Dennis changed back into a bat and flew out of the window. He was so devastated that his sobs echoed throughout the entire hotel and deep into the night.

"I WANT A PUPPY!"

As Dennis sat sullenly on the balcony railing, Dracula just happened to be passing by and noticed his heartbroken grandson, stopping to comfort him. "Dennis! What is up my cute little curly haired tarantula?" he asked, playfully tickling the bat boy's curly red locks.

"I want a puppy, Papa Drac," Dennis explained sadly, and then an idea came to him. If the other adults won't get him a puppy, than his grandpa will. "Wait a second." He grasped Dracula's face and leaned in close. "You could get it for me, Papa Drac!"

"Oh no, no, no, no." Dracula protested, shaking his hands. "I could never..."

Then, Dennis looked up at his grandfather, giving him the pouty bat face. Dracula gasped. He couldn't resist that cute, tearful, bottom-lip quivering, sad face of his grandson. He started to think it over, but it was a tough decision for the vampire lord.


Later on, a melancholy Dennis played with his toys with Johnny on the floor. Mavis and Elona sat on the couch reading. Mavis read a book about cruise ships. Elona read the newspaper about humans or monsters being mysteriously attacked by an unknown serial killer. Melany was on the floor too, but she was watching the Shrek on TV. There was a knock at the door, and everyone looked up.

Dracula entered and peeked his head inside. "Oh... heh-heh. Hi, I-" But before he could explain his presence, he got shoved into the room with extreme force, crashing into the wall.

A gigantic bluish black dog, slightly resembling a pug Rottweiler mix, burst into the room, destroying the front door and wall in the process. The puppy panted loudly, his large tongue drooled on the floor. Everyone gawked at this huge dog before them.

"Eh, surprise..." Dracula grinned sheepishly, tangled in the damaged furniture.

After a moment of awkward staring, Dennis's face lit up and he leaped forward to hug his brand new puppy at the cheek. "PUPPYYYYY!"

"Dad!" Mavis glared at her father, angered that he went behind her back to get her son a puppy against her wishes.

"Drac!" Elona shared that same feeling of anger and irritation, scowling at her husband.

"What? Every monster needs to have a cute little puppy," Dracula brushed off their annoyance, shrugging.

"LITTLE?!" Elona retorted, gesturing to the giant puppy. "Look at him, he's huge!"

The puppy barked and hopped around Dennis, creating a mess around the small room. He licked the little boy but it caught him in its mouth, and released him with its tongue rolling out like a long carpet. Mavis, Johnny and Elona stared in surprise.

"I love my puppy!" Dennis cheered happily, not even bothered by the dog slime.

"Now naming such a magnificent creature could be quite challenging." Dracula instructed, while Dennis rode on the dog's back as the puppy sniffed the floor and walked past him. "Genghis-Khan, Kujo…"

"Tinkles!" Dennis suggested, stating the obvious of why choosing such a name.

"Yes." Dracula smiled at the choice of name. That is until his eyes snapped open and he looked in the corner of the room. "Wait, what?"

Mavis gasped, seeing that Tinkles, the new puppy's name, had urinated and rushed over in a panic. "My living room!" she exclaimed.

"Aagh! Not on the TV!" Freaking out, Elona stood up and ran over to save Melany, and the TV, from the urinating dog.

Johnny remained in the kneeling position, while Dracula took this as the opportunity to run. "Okay, well, bye-bye!" he swiftly exited the room.

"Dad!" Mavis yelled.

"Dracula!" Elona shouted, just as she pops back into view to announce his punishment for going behind her back. "You're sleeping in your coffin tonight!"


The following night, Dracula was snoring peacefully in his coffin.

Elona was putting her jacket on to go out. She raised the coffin lid to speak to her husband. "Drac, I'm taking Melany to school. Then I have to go to the doctor to check on our baby," she gestured to her pregnant belly, "and then I have to run a few errands."

"Okay, Blood Ruby," Dracula replied, sleepily. The coffin closed and the sound of the door closing came after, but not entirely.

"Dad, we have to run out. Could you watch Tinkles for us?" Mavis asked, from outside the coffin.

"Sure, Honey Spider, okay. Yes," Dracula groggily agreed and went back to sleep.

"Bye, Tinkles!" Dennis said, before the sound of the door closed followed after.

No sooner had his family gone, Dracula heard Tinkles' whining and squeaky barking, and a loud scratching on his coffin. Dracula's eyes snapped open. Frowning, he opened the coffin and saw Tinkles' eyes. Scoffing, he closed the coffin and went back to sleep.

Just then, his coffin started shaking violently, cause Tinkles pawed at the coffin and bounced wildly, signaling he wanted to go out. When the shaking stopped, Dracula proceeded to go back to sleep. The puppy sniffed the floor outside and whined.

Dracula's eyes flew open, realizing what the dog was going to do. He popped out of his coffin like a jack in the box. "Hey! Tinkles, no! Stop!" he screamed, frantically waving his arms.

Tinkles had his leg raised, ready to do his business, until he heard his master stop him.


Taking the dog outside so he could pee, Dracula tapped his foot impatiently, frowning. When Tinkles finished going to the bathroom, he turned to his master.

"Happy?" Dracula asked, but Tinkles lowered his body, giving him the puppy dog eyes. "Argh, what is it now?" The puppy opened his huge jaws. "You're hungry? Unbelievable." Groaning, Dracula left to go get the dog some food.

Returning a few minutes later, the Count brought back a wheel barrel with a huge pile of different kinds of meat. "Lord of Darkness to doggie caterer. What has happened to my life?" he mumbled.

Tinkles began jumping excitedly for the food.

"Ohh, you like this, huh? Now, who wants to sit..." The second Dracula took up the piece of meat, Tinkles immediately sat down. Noticing that if the puppy heard instructions or tricks, he obeyed. This made Dracula smirk, so every time he instructed, the puppy followed his orders. "Down. Up. Sit. Roll over. Up. Shake. Down. Roll over. Sit. Up. Roll over. Shake. Down. Roll over. Sit. Speak!"

"Hi, how are you?" Tinkles spoke in a grown man's voice.

Dracula's eyes widened in surprise at this.


Afterword, Dracula returned to the lobby's front desk where he helped the guests check in. "Yes, here is your room key. Enjoy your stay." He said to the brain monster as he gave him the key, and the brain took it before leaving to go to his room.

A familiar whining made Dracula grow increasingly annoyed. Tinkles stood behind him, panting happily. "Shh, I said you could stay with me as long as you behave." The puppy frowned sadly to behave himself.

A witch maid came over to report, "Sir, the Bones family reunion is here to check in."

This alerted Tinkles as he rose up when he saw the skeleton family come in.

"Yes, wonderful. I was expecting..." This snapped Dracula in realization that the Bones family are made of bones, which is what dogs liked the most, and what's worse is that the whole skeleton family entered the lobby. "Oh no." The vampire felt drool dropping on his head. He took out a steak to try to tame Tinkles. "Stay!" he pleaded.

But Tinkles couldn't resist a bone, so he crashed through the front desk, much to Dracula's horror. A skeleton screamed as the monster dog rushed over to the Bones family and pounced on them.

From outside the hotel, the screams of the Bones family and furniture broken or trashed could be heard.


A little later, Mavis and Johnny entered the lobby with Dennis, followed by Elona and Melany. Elona had asked Johnny to carry two bags of groceries that she bought, so he struggled to squeeze through the revolving door to get inside.

"Did you have a fun day at school, honey?" Mavis asked her son.

"Yeah, but I missed Tinkles," Dennis answered.

"I hope Drac is not having any trouble with the dog," Elona said.

"Maybe he peed in Daddy's bedroom," Melany joked.

Then, Johnny gasped in surprise at what he saw in the lobby. The shock was so sudden that he dropped the grocery bags. Confused, Mavis turned around. "What is it, honey?" she asked.

"Oh, my goodness!" Elona gasped in horror at the state of the lobby. Looking up, Mavis gasped at what she saw.

Skeletons were missing pieces of their bodies, crying out for help or were supposedly injured. The lobby was damaged or thrown about in the process of Tinkles' playful attack on the Bones family. Dracula was busy picking up parts of the skeletons' bodies.

"Dad, what happened?" Mavis asked.

Frowning, Dracula used a skeleton hand to point at the culprit. "Tinkles happened."

Tinkles was busy chewing on at least half a dozen of the skeleton family, some of them escaping from a few chews, shouting, "I'm free!"

"Ugh! This can't get any worse," Elona sighed. Just then, she felt an agonizing pain in her stomach. She didn't know it was either the stress of discovering Tinkles had trashed the lobby or... the pain grew faster, and it got worse. It took only a moment for her to realize she had gone into labor. "Aaaagh!" she screamed, gripping her large belly.

"Mom, what's wrong?" Mavis was concerned.

"The baby is coming!"

Elona collapsed to her knees, clutching her stomach, and started whining in pain. Johnny, Mavis and Dracula rushed over to her side. Dennis and Melany grew scared of what just happened, wondering if she was going to be alright.

"My baby is coming?" Dracula's expression displayed a mixture of worry and surprise at the same time.

However, Mavis was totally baffled. "That's impossible, the baby wasn't due for another week."

But Dracula didn't know what to do in a situation like this; tend to Elona and be there for his wife or finish cleaning the mess Tinkles had made.

Reading the conflict in her father's eyes, Mavis instructed, "I'll take care of the mess, Dad. You should be there for Mom."

The vampire's eyes lit up with instant relief. "Thank you, Mavy."


Sometime later in the hotel's delivery room, a baby girl was crying after recently being born, wrapped in a lavender blanket by Dr. Gillman. The baby has her mother's facial features and a curl of blonde hair, but her eyes are blue just like her father.

The infant was suddenly taken by a delighted Dracula, who started cheering happily and did a little victory dance. "Look, I have a daughter! Another daughter!" He held the baby up in the air for his family to gaze upon, very much like Rafiki did to baby Simba in the Lion King.

Mavis and Johnny shed tears of joy, proud of the new addition to the family.

Smiling calmly, Elona gestured her youngest daughter to come over and say hello. The second Melany crawled upon the bed where her exhausted mother lay resting, she watched as her father handed her newborn baby sister gently back to Elona, who tenderly nuzzled the infant's head with her own to cease her crying. Sitting beside Elona, Dracula couldn't hold back the tears any longer as he gazed at his wife, and two small daughters with joy and love in his heart.

But the family's happiness came to an abrupt end when the door burst open, or rather the wall exploded. Tinkles barked excitedly as an ecstatic Dennis rode on his back like a horse. Everyone's jaws fell open as they gawked at them.

"Hi, Nana Ellie!" Dennis waved at his grandmother. "Tinkles wanted to meet my new aunt."

"Dennis, I thought I told you Tinkles needs to stay outside to..." Mavis didn't finish her lecture.

Suddenly, Tinkles lifted a leg up in the air which told everybody the dog

"TINKLES! NO!" Dracula screamed, frantically trying to usher the giant puppy outside with Mavis and Johnny's help, but it was too late.

The sounds of Dracula, Mavis and Johnny screaming as the puppy had urinated all over them caused Elona to look away in disgust, except a snickering Melany and her new baby sister, who laughed hilariously for the first time.

"Ugh. I need a vacation," Dracula sighed, grumpily.

THE END.
