I finished this chapter in a day back in January. But, I wanted to finish the story so I could post it weekly it's almost done so here it is the next chapter. Hopefully I can finish the next chapter by next week.
Chapter 4: Who Let the Undead Dog out
School that morning was interesting. And not because everyone was staring at a growling dog in a box, and a rustling backpack with de-feathered geese in it. "This better be worth the embarrassment," Emily said, as I was trying to keep the geese in my backpack. "Hey, girls, how's it going," Erica said, meeting us by the front entrance. "Don't ask." Emily said, "Wow, what's got her in a mood?" Erica asked, "I said, don't ask! But if you must know. It's all their fault." Emily said, pointing to Ethen, Benny, Mabel, and Myself. "Okay, what did you do this time?" Erica asked, "Nearly got attacked by geese." I explained, "I nearly got my hand bitten off by a dog Benny's giving to Della." Ethen explained, "I thought I smelled geese. Mind if I take one off your hands. No one will miss them." Erica said, with a mischievous grin on her face and her fangs out.
"Fangs off Erica. They're for Rory." Mabel said, "Oh, come on; there's no way Rory will be able to eat all three on his own." "He's a growing vampire." Mabel said, "Please, just one?" Erica asked, "Hey, look, a super-hot guy is looking this way." I said, to distract her, "Really?!" Where?" Erica asked, excitedly as we ran off "Hey, you didn't need to pull that one on me. Okay, maybe you did. At least ask Rory if he'll share." Erica called out, "
Man, I'm telling you this feels wrong. That dog isn't just undead. It's evil! He tried to eat my hand this morning." Ethen said, "Why? Didn't you feed him?" Benny asked, "No. Sorry, I didn't have any dead dog chow laying around." He replied as Della and her friends came into view, "There's Della. When she sees Puffles, she will be all over me! Wish me luck." Benny said, "If he thinks his plan will get a girl to like him. Then he needs more than just a wakeup call from reality. He needs a slap in the face from reality." Emily said, "Agreed." We all said as Sarah walked up to us.
"Tell me, what are you and dumber-you up to this time?" Sarah asked, "What? Nothing. I don't know what you're talking about." Ethen said, "Yeah, that ought to convince her." Emily said, smugly, "I know your work when I see it. I was trying out for a new sales job, and a skunk attacked me." Sarah explained, "No, kidding. This morning Mabel and I were nearly attacked by a gaggle of geese." I explained, "That's a funny word, gaggle." Mabel said,
"Look, all I did was help Benny "rescue" an innocent girl's dog." Ethen said, "Puffles, Puffles? What is he doing?!" Della asked as Puffles was biting at her "Puffles what is wrong with you! Ahhh!" She screamed as Puffles started chasing her "Wait." Benny said, running after her, "Oh, she didn't even say thank you, ugh." He said, running off after Della, "Thank you after that." Emily said, "Look, Benny, I love I really do. But, sometimes I wonder why I'm friends with you in the first place." She said,
"Trust me when I say that, I've been asking myself that question for years." Ethen said, just as he remembered Sarah was there, "Uh, coincidence? Look, I can explain." He said, "Hey, what is up." Rory said, walking up to us with bandages on his fingers, "What happened to you?" Ethen asked, "Weirdest thing. Last night I went out for a crunchy critter snack, but this time the snack fought back, I think it was possessed." Rory explained, "I don't remember this happening during our midnight flight." I said, "It happened when I was flying home." Rory said, "You don't need bandages remember? Vampires can heal themselves." Sarah said, "Yo, fingers grow back fast! Sweet! High-five." Rory said as I high-fived him, "What? Couldn't leave him hanging." I said, "Hey, Rory. We've got something for you." Mabel said, "Really, you two didn't have to get me anything." He said,
"But we did. Want some geese." I said, pulling a bag out from my backpack. "Fresh from this morning. And de-feathered." I said, "You two are the best." Rory said, taking the bag from me, "Did you guys do what I think you guys did?" Sarah asked, "Raise dead animals from the grave to get a girls attention?" Ethen replied, "Unbelievable." Sarah said, walking away from us, "Ahh! Benny, get him off! Get him off!" Della screamed, "Benny!" Ethen exclaimed as we rushed to aid our friends. "Attention all students! Due to the recent outbreaks of rabid animal attacks, we ask you to return to your homes and remain indoors. As of now, all classes are canceled until further notice." A man said over a loudspeaker. "Rory, come with me to the Secret Room. I have some emergency holy water that will get rid of these animals." Emily said, "I'll cover you." He said,
Emily opened her locker and pushed a button to open the Secret Room. They went inside and closed the secret door behind them. As the rest of us used our Rainbow wands to clear the way so students could escape, Emily and Rory busted out of a vent above the lockers. Emily was armed with two holy-water guns. Rory, on the other hand, couldn't use them because the water is a vampire's weakness. But, he was wearing a green hat and wielding the same Kirby copy ability sword that he used the night we took Jessie down. "Here's the plan, I'll soak the animals with the water, and you slice them in half. Got it?" Emily asked, "I got this; you can trust me." Rory replied, "Great, let's do this thing." Emily said as they leaped into action, "Be gone demon foul." Emily said, squirting a squirrel but, it did nothing. "What, how is that possible?" Emily asked, herself
"Uh, Emily? I think there are too many for us to handle. I think it's time for plan B." I said, "What's plan B?" She asked, "Run! Just Run!" I exclaimed. All of retreated to Ethen's house. Except for Rory, but he gave the sword hat back to me before running back home.
"Phew! Is it me, or did that chipmunk look about ready to eat our eyeballs?" Benny asked, trying to catch his breath. "I think it's time we called in a little magical backup." Ethen said, "What? N-no! If Grandma finds out, who knows what she'll do to me? Listen, if the potion did cause this, then maybe it'll run out of gas. I'm sure the worst is over." Benny said, "I don't think that's how magic works." Emily said as we sat down on the sofa and turned the T.V on. "This is a special news bulletin. All over Whitechapel, reports are coming in of bizarre small animal attack." The news reporter said, just as a turtle attacked him, "That's Tiberius!" Ethen said, "No!" Benny replied, "Yeah!" Ethen said, "But, that's crazy. He ran away when you were like eight." Benny said,
"You and I need to talk to your grandma now." Ethen said, "C-couldn't we just email her." Benny said as Mrs. Weir appeared out of nowhere, "Ahh!" We all screamed, "I mean, ah, hi, Grandma." Benny said, trying to sound casual, "Something you twits want to tell me?" Mrs. Weir asked, holding the potion Benny used. "Mrs. Weir, I know this looks bad, but there is a reasonable explanation for this." I said, "Which is?" She replied. "Uh, it's all Benny's fault." I said, pointing to him, "He did it." Mable said, pointing to him, "It's all on him." Emily said, pointing to him as Benny smiled sheepishly. Mrs. Weir led us to her house to help us with the demon critters.
"First, we brew enough anti-potion to douse all those demon critters you created." Mrs. Weir said, "All I did was spill a few drops where the dog was buried." Benny said, "A few drops is far too much." She said, "But, why are they so evil?" Ethen asked, "You reanimated the bodies, but the souls have moved on. And a body with no soul is a demons playground." Mrs. Weir explained,
"See, I tried to warn you this would happen. Every time you bring something back from the dead, they always come back evil or craving brains." Amy said, "Even if this brew works, how are we going to track all the undead critters?" Ethen asked, "Right, here. Once the demons hear this enchanted flute, they'll come running, but you better be ready. "She explained, holding up a brown flute. "Don't worry, Grandma. I will not fail you!" Benny said, holding up the flute, "Not you, Einstein, I need you here to help me with this brew. Ethen can do it." Mrs. Weir said, "Start at the sight of the spill and then work your way back here. "Wait, tonight's my dad's dinner with his new client. Mom will kill me if I miss it." Ethen said, "Well, if that's the case, Dakota. You and your friends can do this, yes?" Mrs. Weir asked, "Oh, no, we are not getting involved. I do not want to catch any disease those critters might have. And I do not want to visit the hospital for Dakota and Mabel." Emily said,
"Well, if he can't do it and I can't do it, and they don't want to do it. Then who's going to play the stupid magic flute?" Benny asked, "What's your little blond friend up to?" Mrs. Weir asked, "She's right. This sounds like a job for Vampire Ninja." We said,
