So this is the last chapter before the next Halloween Special that Ray came up with. It's really good and will give people goosebumps. Anyway, let's get on with the show.

"Maddie? Bell?" Amanda asked after a few moments.

The two remaining members of the next generation of the Magic Trio turned to see Amanda, Rose, Natie, and Aurel standing at the door. "Guys you're okay!" Maddie cried out, running to them. "Thank goodness."

"Man are ve glad to see you two," Aurel sighed. "Ve just got chased by America vith a chainsaw and then ve had to deal vith a Sealand Kraken."

"Uh guys," Bell interrupted. "I don't mean to be rude or anything, but it would probably be good if you closed the door." Bell then went back to stirring the cauldron with a large spoon. "We don't need monsters coming in now do we?"

Natie quickly closed the door and double locked it. Then she joined the others, who had followed Maddie to the cauldron. "So is this the cure?" Natie questioned.

"Well, almost," Maddie pointed out as she pulled out a dusty old book and skimmed through the pages. "Now let's see, Bell? Was the spell calling for one or two eyes of newt?"

The non-magic capitals gagged at that. Eye of newt? Gross! "No, no. It was a mushroom stool." Bell corrected.

"Oh yeah! My bad." Maddie went over to the cabinet and opened a little jar that had mushroom stool in it. She then poured it into the pot. "There. Now we need to mix it up and the cure will be done."

"Then everyone will be back to normal?" Rose asked.

"Hopefully," Bell dryly stated. "It's not completely set in stone."

**********

The group of now six humans were sneaking into the school to finally put an end to Beauté's dastardly deeds. They each tiptoed down the halls with spray bottles filled with the supposed cure. They hadn't really gotten the chance to test it but they knew they had to hurry because Bell was able to get intel that Beauté was planning something big before midnight.

As they ascended the stairs, Bell explained what she had gotten information on: "Beauté plans to release all her monsters at midnight to collect all the remaining humans and bring them here. Then she will...deal with them herself."

"Oh man, sounds bad," Amanda said.

"Yeah," Maddie spoke. "So that's why we have to spray her to get Amelia back. If Beauté is gone, then the people will turn back to normal."

Soon, the girls, and Aurel, were at the hall that led to Beauté's lair. They were all silent as they moved and wanted to stay that way. Just as they expected, the door was guarded. The guards were Chen, who was in a half-dragon form, and Allison. "Okay, we need a distraction," Maddie whispered.

"Don't vorry, I've got this," Aurel insisted. "Just vatch my awesomeness."

"I'll go with you then," Natie added. "Just to make sure things run smoothly da?"

The two then ran past the "guards" and down the hall, getting their attention long enough for the others to sneak inside. Maddie quietly closed the door and the four found Beauté staring at herself in a mirror. She was fixing her blonde hair up in bobby pins when she sensed the girls' presence in the room.

"Well, well, the humans come right to me," Beauté spoke as she turned to face our heroes. "Isn't that a bit of a surprise?"

"This ends now witch," Bell stated.

"Oh no my dear, this has just begun. This world is mine now."

"Not for long!" Amanda shouted before spraying Beauté with the cure.

Beauté screamed in agony as the liquid touched her and she dropped yo her knees. "Oh, what a cruel world! I'm melting! Melting!" Beauté then collapsed to the ground.

"Now am I good shot or what?"

Bell, Maddie, and Rose could only stare in shock.

"Uh guys?"

"Amanda, don't turn around," Maddie instructed.

"What?" Amanda did a quick turnaround to see Beauté up again. She was still in control of Amelia's body. "But, but-"

"But what my dear? You thought that silly concoction would really beat me? Ha! You insult me really."

"We still outnumber you Beauté!" Maddie shouted.

"Again, you are wrong."

With a simple snap of her fingers, the monsters that Beauté had created had surrounded them. In the group of monsters, Amanda saw Aurel and Natie there with red eyes and sharp teeth. (Well Aurel always had red eyes but still.) "Guys, we're in big trouble," Amanda said.

"We know Amanda. We can't do anything about it." Bell stated as she began to fight off some of the monsters. However, when she wasn't paying much attention, she got bit on the arm.

"Bell!" The three shouted as Bell fell to the ground.

Maddie growled and tried to stay focused on the other monsters that surrounded them and got closer.

Rose shook in fear. She didn't think that things could get any worse. Oh was she wrong. She turned around to see Katrina behind her, growling like a dog. Even though she knew the cure wouldn't work, she sprayed Katrina in the face. "Bad Katrina, bad girl," She scolded like she was a dog.

Katrina growled and then tried to bite at Rose but had ended up biting the bottle instead.

Unfortunately, Amanda and Rose were the only humans left, since Bell and Maddie had been bit and turned into witches. The two girls shook in fear. "This is like a bad dream," Rose muttered.

That's when an idea popped into Amanda's head. "That's it Rose! Hit me."

"What?"

"I'd say pinch but we don't have time for that. Just give me a good punch in the arm!"

Rose gulped but "punched" Amanda.
"Oh come on Rose! Hit me harder!"

Rose tried again.

"Come on Rose! Hit me like I stole your pasta!"

Rose gasped before she punching Amanda really hard, knocking her to the ground.

"Okay, too hard."

Rose stood over Amanda as Amanda saw the room spinning. "Amanda? Amanda?" Rose called out as Amanda's vision began to blur. When Amanda blinked, she saw that she was laying down in her bed. "Oh good, you're awake."

"Rose?" Amanda asked. "What happened?"

"You hit your head on a sign on the way to class," Rose explained. "The nurse had us carry you back to your room."

"B-But what about, I mean the monsters!" Amanda stuttered.

"Monsters? What monsters?" Rose questioned.

"We were surrounded by monsters! Remember?!"

Rose shook her head. "No. We never faced any monsters."

Amanda looked at Rose and then plopped back down on her bed. All of that had been a dream? There was no way.

As Amanda was in thought, Rose left the room and bumped into Amelia. "Ciao Amelia~," She greeted.

"Did she ask about what happened?" Amelia asked.

"Sí, but I don't think we should tell her yet. Maybe we should let her think it was a dream."

"Okay. It's a good thing that cure kicked in at the last minute."

Amelia nodded. "It just took a minute to work."

Happy Halloween Everyone! There'll be another story coming up.
