Soon enough, it was time to go to the Halloween Carnival, but of course, Wendy was going to need to be introduced to Ms. Grimwood's girls, so Cherry would meet the others at the carnival while she took her little cousin to the castle school. Luckily, she didn't have to do this alone.
Wendy was both so excited and nervous about meeting the other girls. "Do you think the other girls will like me?" she asked on the way to her new school.
"Yes." Atticus nodded.
"Who doesn't like a brat with blonde hair?" Cherry asked the young witchling. "Come on, those girls are gonna love you, you know why? 'Cuz you're a winner!"
"A winner..." Wendy whispered.
"And you're adorable." Cherry continued.
"I'm adorable!" Wendy beamed.
"And everyone loves an adorable winner." Cherry told her little cousin.
"Yeah!" Wendy smiled.
"That was very nice, Cherry," Patch said. "Where did you find such inspiring words?"
"When we met Ralph and Vanellope." Cherry shrugged innocently.
"Ohh." Patch said.
"Ooh, a drawbridge..." Wendy liked this school already and knocked on the front door after she crossed the shark infested moat.
Inside of the school, Ms. Grimwood took attendance to make sure her girls were there, including the three new ones that Shaggy, Scooby, and Scrappy didn't get to meet the first time since they were too scared. After taking attendance, she opened the door. Wendy zipped inside on her broomstick and laughed as she flew all around the castle.
"Wendy, get down from there!" Cherry cried out as she ran in after her little cousin.
"Sorry, just got inside." Wendy said.
Cherry groaned as she felt exhausted already. Wendy soon landed and smiled to her new classmates and looked surprised at their different forms.
"Girls, this is our new girl, Wendy Rookwood," Ms. Grimwood told her students. "The niece of Gert, Fanny, and Gabby."
"Hello." Wendy greeted.
"Hello, dear, my name is Glynis Grimwood, I'll be your new teacher," Ms. Grimwood smiled to her. "These are your classmates: Sibella, the daughter of Dracula."
"Fangtastic to meet you." Sibella curtsied.
"Winnie, the daughter of the Werewolf." Ms. Grimwood continued.
"Hellooooooo!" Winnie howled.
"Elsa Frankenteen, the daughter of Frankenstein."
"Hi there, new friend!" Elsa beamed.
"Tanis, the Mummy's Daughter."
"Hello there." Tanis smiled shyly as she sucked her thumb.
"Phantasma, the Phantom's daughter."
Phantasma giggled as she came behind Wendy. "I love your hair!"
"And of course, the new girls before you," Ms. Grimwood then showed the other three. "Godzina, the daughter of Godzilla, Goonie, the daughter of the Creature of the Black Lagoon, and Mary, her father is an alien invader."
"It's nice to meet you all." Wendy said.
"It's nice to meet you too." The girls smiled back to Wendy.
"The more the merrier, I always say," Ms. Grimwood smiled to this and soon saw Cherry, Atticus, and Patch coming in. "Oh, well, there's some familiar faces I like to see."
"It's great to see you all too." Patch smiled.
Matches soon came out.'
"Hey, Matches!" Patch beamed to the dragon.
Matches smiled to him and gave him a fond hug before she looked a little sad.
"What's wrong?" Patch asked.
Matches took out half of a heart-shaped crystal to show that she had a broken heart and longed to have somebody to love her.
"Ohh, now I understand." Patch said.
Matches nodded.
"Don't worry, you'll find someone soon." Patch promised the dragon.
"Cheer up, Matches," Ms. Grimwood told her pet. "I'm sure our field trip to the Halloween Carnival will cheer you up."
Matches nodded in agreement.
"Luckily my car can fit everyone." Atticus smiled.
"Oh, Atticus, how fangtastic of you to help us." Sibella smiled back.
"No problem, girls." Atticus smiled.
"Wow, who knew Godzilla had a daughter?" Patch asked about Godzina.
Atticus shrugged about that. Godzina soon gave Patch a bone-crushing hug with a laugh as she seemed to like him a lot. For him, this was nothing since he was super-strong. "Doggy Woggy!" she chuckled.
"Okay, that's enough hugging." Patch smiled sheepishly to her.
Godzina agreed with that and decided to hug Atticus next.
"Come here..." Atticus allowed.
Godzina laughed and then hugged him.
"I'm just glad that isn't Elmyra Duff..." Patch commented about the last time they visited Acme Acres.
"I know." Cherry said.
Godzina soon hugged her back tightly.
Cherry grunted and groaned. "Oh, gosh, that's just like Grenda in Gravity Falls!"
"Yep." Patch said.
Godzina giggled as she had fun with her new friends.
"I love these guys," Mary smiled. "Like me, they're out of this world!"
They soon got in Atticus's car.
"Get cozy, this is a great car." Patch told the others.
"Yeah, when he tells us he has it after he makes us walk around!" Cherry folded her arms with a scoff.
They soon drove off.
"So, what's school like?" Wendy asked her new classmates.
"We learn a lot of things," Winnie smiled. "Like there's cauldron class, swimming, ballet, cooking, home economics, it's the greatest!...Unless we run into Revolta again."
"I doubt we'll see her again, Winnie." Patch soothed.
"I like music class!" Phantasma giggled hyperactively.
"I can tell." Wendy said.
"I'm just scared about transferring to Monster High when we get older..." Winnie frowned as they were almost high school aged.
"Don't worry," Atticus said. "It'll be a new experience."
"I'm scared..." Tanis whispered.
"Well, I'm not scared!" Winnie glared, trying to seem tough. "I'm just... Worried for you!"
"Don't worry, high school is a new place to make friends." Atticus said.
Tanis, being the youngest, was the most scared.
"Hmm..." Goonie hummed as she wasn't sure how to feel about going to Monster High.
They soon arrived at the carnival. It was night time which was perfect for them and the girls cheered as they arrived to the carnival.
"No way, is that Scooby and the gang?" Patch looked out the window.
"I think so." Atticus said.
"Wicked!" Wendy beamed as she looked more excited to see Mystery Inc.
"It's them alright." Cherry said.
Soon enough, Atticus parked the car and everyone came out, excited to join the carnival.
"Boy, are the gang going to be surprised." Patch said.
"You said it, boy." Atticus agreed.
Cherry held Tanis's hand as they looked around.
"The Amazing Krudsky?" Mo laughed as she stood with Angel to a poster. "That's a name I haven't heard in a long time."
"Mo?" Patch asked.
Mo looked over and smiled. "Oh, hi, guys!"
"What are you doing here?" Atticus asked.
"Bringing JJ to his first Halloween Carnival," Mo smiled. "I was gonna invite you guys to come, but I couldn't reach you."
"Sorry about that." Atticus said.
"Oh, well, at least w'ere all together," Mo shrugged and then saw the Grimwood students. "Wow, those costumes are great!"
"Yeah... Those aren't costumes." Atticus whispered to her.
"Wait, what?!" Angel's eyes widened.
"They're famous daughters of popular monsters," Atticus explained. "Like Dracula, Frankenstein, The Phantom, The Werewolf, The Mummy, The Creature from the Black Lagoon, and even Godzilla..."
"Wow." Mo said.
Atticus nodded to her. Angel came over to the girls and looked at them to see that they were in fact real while other people who passed by them just thought they were normal kids in Halloween costumes.
"I didn't see that coming." Mo said.
"Get used to it," Atticus replied before looking at the magician. "Oh, a magician, Cherry loves magicians!"
"This guy is terrible." Mo said.
"Really?" Atticus asked.
"When I was younger, he hosted a birthday party Angel and I snuck into..." Mo chuckled as she remembered life on the streets as she mentioned how she met the magician, she then narrated as a flashback was shown with her and a younger Angel with Buster and the other Junkyard dogs. "There were dozens and dozens of kids, so we just tried to blend in with the crowd so we could sneak some cake to eat, and we decided to watch the show since it started as soon as we showed up."
"How was it?" Atticus's voice asked.
"It was so cheesy and lame!" Mo's voice laughed as her younger self sat with Angel in the crowd of birthday kids. "His own rabbit bit his thumb when he pulled it out, but my favorite part had to be when the other dogs came out and Francisco ended up making his face end up in the birthday cake after I snuck a couple of slices."
This caused Atticus's voice to laugh. Mo laughed back as her flashback ended.
"Oh, man, I bet he doesn't know any real magic." Atticus smiled.
"Nope, just one of those cheesy stage magicians..." Mo replied. "Not as amazing or funny as those guys in Las Vegas."
"True." Atticus said.
"Mo?" Cherry came over in surprise.
"Babysitting." Mo explained why she was there.
Angel soon saw Junior get off of a kiddie ride and went to him since she and Mo wandered off.
"That explains it." Cherry said.
Mo walked over to her little brother. "Did you like the ride, JJ?"
"Uh-huh," Junior smiled. "Can we trick-or-treats soon?" he then asked. "I wanna meet the Great Pumpkin!"
"After the magic show." Mo said.
"Okay, Momo." Junior replied.
"The Great Pumpkin?" Patch asked the young boy.
"This one kid said that every year on Halloween night, the Great Pumpkin comes out of the pumpkin patch and gives toys and presents for all the good little children." Junior smiled.
Patch soon started to laugh a little.
"What's so funny?" Junior asked.
Cherry laughed louder which seemed a bit rude. "A pumpkin gives you presents?!" she then asked before laughing harder.
Atticus soon nudged her to make her stop.
Cherry kept laughing and soon stopped. "Ow!"
"I did not hurt you." Atticus deadpanned.
"Did soooo!" Cherry whined.
"It's not nice to laugh at a kid." Atticus whispered to her.
Cherry mocked him in a high-pitched mumble before blowing a raspberry. Atticus simply rolled his eyes at her.
"So, JJ, what do you wanna do now?" Mo smiled.
"How soon can we watch the magic show so we can trick-or-treat?" Junior smiled back.
"I think it starts in a few minutes." Mo said.
"Oh, boy!" Junior beamed.
"Aw, I just love your little excitement..." Mo smiled back to her little brother, even though this magic show was going to suck.
