Chapter 14: Safe or Not

Hey everyone I'm back with a new chapter. I'm so glad everyone loved my latest update, it inspired me to get this out as soon as possible. I hope you like what I have planned. Please Review and Enjoy.

It had been a few days since Dance the Fright Away and things at Monster High were finally returning to normal…well normal as things can get at that school especially since Moanica and her Zomboys had left after their plan had failed.

Ari who had put her tour on hold was checking out the school and was impressed with what she saw, the Plumbers and Monsters all getting along and studying together.

Looking around the main room she noticed Drake sitting at a table working on his homework. Ari had been curious about him ever since she saw him at the dance but never got the chance to talk to him.

Walking over she tapped him on the shoulder. "Excuse me."

Turning around Drake looks to her. "Hey Tash uh I mean Ari. Sorry about that, still getting used to the whole idol being a monster in disguise."

"It's quite alright. This school is quite a sight." Ari giggles.

"Well we worked hard to make it a real thing." Drake said before smiling. "You know this whole thing kinda started with you."

"How so?" Ari asks sitting down.

"Well as you probably know Draculaura is a huge fan of yours." Drake said.

"Oh I know. She asked for my autograph after the dance." Ari smiles.

"Well when I first met Draculaura she was trying to get your latest album when I ran into her. I had tried making some human friends but I blew it. As I walked home I ended up running into her." Drake explained.

"Wow, weren't you scared?" Ari asks.

"I was at first, but as we talked the more we found we had much in common, so as a gift I bought her the album and we've been friends ever since. After that we met Frankie and soon we just kept finding more and more monsters to join us." Drake said.

"That's quite a story." Ari said impressed.

"You know we're always looking for more students to join if you want to." Drake offers.

"That is tempting. I could use a place to go to when my tour ends, but first I want to know more about you." Ari said surprising him.

"Really? Why?" Drake asks.

"You transformed into a monster to help save me. Enough said." Ari said.

"Well the truth is I don't turn into monsters…I turn into 16 different monsters." Drake said shocking her.

"Amazing."

"Yeah and it's all because of this." Drake said holding out his arm with the Omnitrix on it.

"You know it's kinda funny. I'm a monster who can turn into a human and you're a human who can turn into a monster." Ari said.

"Hey maybe we can be like the Ambassadors for Monsters." Drake chuckles.

"You know that's not a bad idea." Ari said pausing to think about it. "If people saw more videos of your monster forms helping humans that could be a real help and I could try performing shows in my real form."

"Wow, you really think that could work?" Drake asks.

"It's worth a try, you all helped me believe." Ari smiles.

"Well I'm glad we could inspire you to be a better monster and to come out of the dark." Drake said.

"Also, I want to thank you…for saving my life." Ari said nervously.

"It's no trouble at all, saving people is what heroes like me do." Drake said.

"Well hero, if you ever want an autograph or a backstage pass feel free to ask." Ari said before moving in and pecking him on the cheek surprising him. "Now if you'll excuse me I better go talk to the staff about becoming a student." Ari smiles before walking away.

Reaching up Drake felt his cheek. 'Wow a pop star just kissed me.' Drake thought when he remembered his kiss with Draculaura before shaking his head. 'Oh man what do I do now?'

At the front of the school, Kevin was making adjustments to his car and fixing it after the Zomboy attack. Nearby Toralei was watching him and gulped before taking a deep breath and walking over.

"Hey." Toralei said getting his attention.

"Oh hey." Kevin said looking up to notice her.

"That's a pretty cool car you got there." Toralei said trying to start a conversation.

"Thanks, been working on this beauty for years, with all the tech I've given it this baby can take anything." Kevin said slamming the lid down. "You know cars?"

"Well I may have hotwired a few to take for joyrides." Toralei said.

"Impressive." Kevin said.

"Hey you ever seen a Zombie Hamster go crazy before?" Toralei asks.

"No." He shook his head.

"Well then you are in for a laugh." Toralei said gesturing for him to follow her.

As they walked away they failed to notice Twyla sitting in the shadows.

"Something tells me this is the start of an interesting relationship." Twyla said before getting up and walking away.

In another part of the school, Frankie and Draculaura were hearing out student requests to upgrade the school.

"I think a school pool would be a great way to improve the school. We could always use a school sport." Lagoona said.

"What do you think?" Frankie asks looking to Draculaura.

"It would take quite a bit of time to make, but it could be useful if we get any more water Monsters." Draculaura said as Lagoona walked away pumping her fist.

"Whoo who knew so many students here would have so many ideas." Frankie said leaning back in her chair.

"I know, it's great isn't it? Monsters are no longer afraid to say what's on their mind." Draculaura smiles when Cleo, Clawdeen and Drake walked in with Mummy mochas.

"Hey thought we'd bring you two a snack." Clawdeen said.

"Thanks ghouls, so what's going on?" Frankie asks.

"Well apparently thanks to our expert negotiator Drake, Ari has applied to be a student at Monster high." Cleo said causing both ghouls to smile.

"Drake that's amazing! Ooh! Ooh we should make a small stage on the school so if she's ever in the mood she can give us one of her shows." Draculaura said excited.

"Whoa take it easy ghoul. She has to finish her tour first before she comes here." Clawdeen said.

"I don't think she's listening." Drake said as Draculaura was dancing around excited when Lagoona and Ben ran in quickly.

"Ghouls we got trouble in Normie town." Lagoona said.

"What kind of trouble?" Cleo asks.

"The Drake going Alien kind." Ben said.

Eyes widening they all ran out as fast as they could.

Racing through the streets, two police cars were chasing after an armored car with a News Helicopter flying above it all.

"We're live on the scene of a high-speed pursuit of an armored car that was stolen earlier today. It is believed the thieves also have a hostage." The reporters said when a bat flew in front of the armored car distracting the driver as multiple spikes came out of the ground shredding the tires and making the car come to a stop.

Exiting the car, two thieves emerged. One with a hostage and the other with a high tech gun. Aiming the gun at the police car he fires destroying it.

Suddenly from behind Diamondhead appeared.

"What's this? It appears to be another monster sighting." The reporter said as Diamondhead trapped the thief in a cage of his diamonds.

Behind him, the other thief held the hostage close until Diamondhead turned his hand into a sharp blade frightening him into letting the hostage go.

"We don't know where these monsters keep coming from, but they seem to be here to help."

Up above in space on Vilgax's ship, they were watching the news story.

"The Omnitrix wasted on pointless heroics." Vilgax growls.

"Shall I dispatch more drones to retrieve it?" His minion asks.

"No." Vilgax said as the healing chamber opened to reveal Vilgax's shadow. "I will see to the retrieval myself. Just you wait earthling. I'm coming for you."
