"You will have two hours to rest before your next challenge. You are not to leave the building, except for you Frankie. You are free to leave but must return for the next challenge in two hours time. I will let you know when my resources locate this, 'Garrot' person you are searching for." Ghostier said waving a hand dismissively after looking at the outfits the three teens had made for Frankie to wear.
Skelita had made a blue tribal shirt with a matching skirt and topped it off with a blue choker and a pair of blue pumps.
Clawdeen had made a black tank top-skirt combo with blue and silver lightning bolts embezzled on them, with a matching purse and some black and silver stilettos.
Jinafire had won though with a Chinese styled shirt that was blue silk with black lightning bolts on it, a similar skirt, and a pair of blue knee high boots with black lightning bolts as the heels.
"Okay. I'm going to go find Rochelle and let her know about what's going on. I'd better check on the other ghouls while I'm at it…later you three. I'll see you in a little while!" Frankie said smiling at the three teens as Ghostier left, waving before she began walking towards the door. Opening it just a crack Frankie was blinded for a split second by the flash of light bulbs. Almost instantly Jinafire and Clawdeen were beside her, Jinafire pulling Frankie away from the door and into her arms while Clawdeen growled at the reporters before slamming the door shut in their faces.
"Okay. Not going outside then. Thanks Jin, Deena." Frankie said smiling up at Jinafire and Clawdeen after blinking the dots from her eyes.
"Not a problem, hime." Jinafire said hugging Frankie tightly for a split second before releasing her.
"What's 'hime' mean?" Clawdeen asked narrowing her eyes at Jinafire, while Frankie tilted her head confused since she was wondering the same thing.
"My apologies. I slipped into my native language by accident. 'Hime' roughly means Princess. It seems to fit Frankie." Jinafire explained, blushing slightly at having let the new 'title' she had mentally bestowed upon the green skinned ghoul slip out.
"Thanks. That's very nice of you to say, even if I'm not much of a princess." Frankie said smiling sweetly up at Jinafire who adverted her eyes with a small blush on her cheeks. Clawdeen was snickering behind her hand while Frankie headed towards a window.
"Yeah you got it bad ghoul…er…you might not want to turn around right now or you might have a heart attack." Clawdeen said slapping Jinafire's back a little harsher than strictly necessary, causing the Chinese dragon to blink at her before turning around curiously…Jinafire nearly had a stroke when she saw Frankie jump out of the fourth floor window. How there was a door to the outside steps on the fourth floor none of them thought to question.
"Hime!" Jinafire yelled dashing to the window, leaning out of it just enough to see Frankie turn into a streak of green lightning that headed for the ground, stopping to show that she was standing there completely unharmed as she jogged off. Frankie looked up and waved at Jinafire for a minute before dashing out of sight.
"I warned you not to turn around." Clawdeen said with a small smirk as she saw Jinafire taking deep breaths to try and slow her racing heart.
"Did you know that the chica could do that?" Skelita asked looking from where Frankie had landed, which had a small scorch mark on the ground, to Clawdeen and back again.
"Course I did. I would have had a heart attack if I didn't know she could turn into lightning and pure energy. It was shocking, and yet oh so funny, when she did it the first time though." Clawdeen said with a snicker as she remembered that.
"How so?" Skelita asked curiously. Jinafire looked at Clawdeen curiously as well, wanting to know anything she could about the mysterious and yet soooo innocently naïve green skinned girl.
"You see most of our school's SKRM team got hurt so bad they couldn't play thanks to the cheating Granite City Gargoyles. We tried to make up a backup team but almost none of the other guys in the school could skate to save their life and afterlife…one of my friends Lagoona showed that girls could be good skaters so eventually we made a team of ghouls since none of the boys wanted to play on a team with some ghouls. It took a while, some advice from Robecca, and two losses before we decided to stop trying to play like the boys do and just play like ghouls. After that we started kicking some serious tail until we were finally in the finals against the Granite City guys again. By that time the only girl on their team, Rochelle, who kept the fact that she was a girl to herself had switched teams since she couldn't stand those guys anymore. Near the last stretch I got hurt thanks to one of the guys cheating and breaking my skates right off…Frankie was pissed at them." Clawdeen recounted snickering when she remembered how badly Frankie had scared the crap out of them. That had just been with her glare too!
"Ya see, Frankie is one of the most protective and fearsome, yet naïve and sweetest, ghouls I have ever met. She will go out of her way to help someone with what many would consider a minor problem one minute, be yelling herself hoarse at a bigot the next, and then round it up by helping the teachers clean up their classrooms after class. She'll help you no matter what but if you harm or threaten her friends and school, she will turn into the most dangerous thing anyone has ever known. By the Gargoyles getting our school crest out school was starting to fall apart, and the boys they hurt had been some of her friends' too so she was already mad at them. When they hurt me though…she was pissed." Clawdeen said causing Jinafire to smirk, she could tell this would be good. Skelita privately thought the same, as did Ghostier who was listening in from the doorway.
"Before the start of the race she made a bet with the Gargoyles. If we won, the Gargoyles would have to dress in drag for a week. If they won, Frankie would have to go on a date with the lead Gargoyle." Clawdeen said, being interrupted by a hiss from Jinafire whose eyes sharpened at that. She didn't like the thought of Frankie dating anyone but her, especially against Frankie's will.
"After they hurt me, my big brother Clawd was going to put in Lala because of a plan he had but Lala was too nervous…that's when Clawd noticed how angry Frankie was and used her in Lala's place. After she was in Operetta took out two of the Gargoyles when they tried to cheat again, then Rochelle spun Frankie around and launched her towards the finish line. To back it up Operetta used her vocal powers to make sound waves launch Frankie faster. The combination of Operetta's sound waves and Rochelle's strength sending Frankie flying so fast caused her to unlock what she calls her Green Lightning Streak. She literally becomes lightning and moves as fast as lightning does, so fast all you can see of her is a green streak." Clawdeen said grinning as she fished her phone out of her pocket and pulled up some pictures. Jinafire and Skelita took one look at the first picture before they both began laughing hard.
"Let's just say that the Gargoyle boys weren't too happy when we picked out their outfits, and boy was it hard to find girls outfits that fit them!"
