Necromalcy
You laid upon the ocean of grass while the sunlight hit your skin. There was a gentle breeze and you could smell the fresh air. You were young. Much younger than you should be.
You heard someone call to you, but it was by a name that wasn't yours. Yet, you knew they were calling to you. Their voices were so familiar. They were....warm.
You sat up and looked back to see three other children ontop of a hill. Two boys and one girl. The girl was waving while the boys were smiling. They were waiting for you.
You would play knights and dragons. You would play the hero and you would save the day.
Then you smelt smoke.
Beep Beep Beep Beep
You groaned and found yourself waking up from your dream. But you immediately woke up completely when you realized you were still smelling smoke.
You sat up and realized that the smoke detector was going off. There was a fire in the house. This lead to you leaping out of bed and rushing out of your room. You ran downstairs and into the kitchen where you found Ms. Bloodgood and Abby trying to get the smoke out of the kitchen.
You stood there, disheveled and wide eyed, and watched as the girls used cooking towels to fan the smoke away from the smoke detector. Once the smoke was clear, the two finally noticed you.
You were only wearing a pair of boxers and an old white shirt while your hair was a mess.
Bloodgood: Did we wake you, dear?
Y/N: WHAT THE FU.....
You sat at the table, eating the burnt pancakes that Bloodgood and Abby had made. They were.....very burnt. Ever had a pancake crunch like it was ice?
Bloodgood: I believe it's been long enough to ask, how have you two settled in?
Abby: Good enough. I do wish my room was colder, though.
Bloodgood: I'll see if I can do something about that.
She then turned to you.
Bloodgood: What about you, Y/N?
You looked up from your disaster of a breakfast and shrugged.
Y/N: Still feels weird being in the same place for more than a week, but I can't say I hate it.
It was the truth. You had made some pretty cool friends. Even the daughter of your uncle's sworn enemy. Is that weird? You still didn't know. But she was cool and you liked hanging out with her.
Bloodgood: And do you have plans for today?
You shrugged. Just a normal day of school, you figured.
-------------------
Y/N: What in the name of Satan?
You found your path blocked by a wave of Zombies on your way to Home Eek. You felt your eye twitch just as Frankie slid up beside you.
She was actually your partner for Home Eek, so you were both stuck in the same situation. You both looked at the crowd in front of you, then at the crowd behind you.
Frankie: Aw, man. Zombies are so slow. We can't cut through this crowd.
Y/N: Well, I mean, I could. Doubt too many people would be happy with it, though.
Frankie looked around before noticing the entrance to the Gym within distance. You knew that the gym itself cut through the building, so there would be a way to get around the crowd both ways.
Y/N: Well, I guess we don't have any better options.
Frankie agreed and you both started walking to the gym.
Y/N: Say, no one is there right now, right?
Wrong.
Currently, Cleo was running the tryouts for her fearsome Fear Squad. Among the group were Draculaura, Ghoulia, and Lagoona. All with hopes of making the cut.
Cleo: Alright, Ghouls, these are the try outs for my Fearleading Squad. Most of you will not survive the cut. There is no room on my Squad for dead weight.
Ghoulia groaned and walked off. Yeah, she wouldn't be able to make the cut anyway. Though, you would think that monsters would be more used to having a slow moving ghoul among fearleaders.
Suddenly, the doors swung open and you and Frankie hurried inside, not even noticing the people inside. They all just watched as Frankie tripped over a forgotten bar on the floor. She flipped through the air, landing a perfect split.
You, on the other hand, noticed the hurdles that track had left in a pile. Thinking quickly, you leaped up and flipped over them, landing on your feet perfectly. You did take three years of gymnastics, and hunting monsters made you physically fit.
Frankie's hand suddenly popped off and hurried off, making you and Frankie chase after it. You jumped up and grabbed a hold of rope and used it to swing yourself ahead. You barely missed the hand, but you managed to land on your hands and springboard yourself to your feet.
Frankie slid to a stop where her hand fell on her head. She then began to pat herself all over to try and catch it, making a mock dance routine that didn't look half bad. This went on until she finally grabbed the hand and reattached it to her arm.
You both stood there and finally noticed everyone watching you all, making you immediately embarrassed.
Y/N: Uh, hi?
Cleo narrowed her eyes.
Cleo: That is completely unacceptable.
Lagoona: You're right, Cleo. They are exceptional!
That was not what she said.
Lagoona: They're exactly what we want!
Frankie and you both looked at each other confused.
Y/N: Uh, what?
Frankie: Want? For what?
Cleo gasped. You weren't even trying? This was just.....primal! Still, she was out voted.
Draculaura: Frankie, Y/N, you guys just made the Fearleading Squad!
You raised your hands.
Y/N: Uh, I'll pass. My plate is pretty full as it is.
The girls shrugged and began to cheer for Frankie while Cleo stood there with her mouth open. This couldn't be happening.
But it was!
And that was just the morning.
-----------------
Y/N: I got a deathwish, it makes my head sick, don't know what I'm doing~
Draculaura whistled the next part since this book is PG and I can't drop the F bombs. But, for those who are curious, the song is called "deathwish" by Standing Atlantic. Good song.
Heath: Dude, substitute creature today!
You looked up to see Heath talking to one of his friends before you looked around the room. Was it really that crazy of a thing?
Lagoona: What happened to Mr. Splatgood?
Clawdeen: I heard it was poisonous leeches.
Y/N: That wouldn't have affected him. Gargoyles are immune to poison.
Draculaura: No no. I heard it was a scorching case of fleas.
Y/N: Gargoyles are made of stone, though.....
Ghoulia: Mhughaha.
The girls all gasped at the news. If anyone would know, it would be Ghoulia.
Ghouls: EW!
Y/N: Yeah, that sounds about right. Hope he gets the right cream.
Frankie: That's Ghastly.
Draculaura turned to you.
Draculaura: I wonder who the sub will be today.
The entire class came to a screeching halt when the sound of something smacking against the teacher's desk echoed through the room. You all looked forward, only to find a human standing there.
???: Quiet, you creeps. And you two stop talking.
You and Draculaura looked at each other confused. This was a human, right? What was he doing at Monster High?
Wait. You were human too.
???: My name is....
Heath: LOSER!
The whole class laughed, but the man seemed unfazed.
???: It's pronounced Zarr. Lou Zarr.
You all stopped laughing. He was serious. Like, dead serious.
Zarr: This is Advanced Trig 101. Open your books. And since I don't know where you left off, we're doing the whole book.
Everyone groaned and opened their books. However, it was then that Deuce walked in with his hood up and his shades on. He greeted a few people before taking a seat next to you, getting Lou Zarr's attention.
Zarr: You, sir, are late.
Deuce: No, I'm Deuce. Deuce Gorgon. And you are...uh....
He looked at the board.
Deuce: Mr. Loser?
The class started to laugh again.
Zarr: I am the authority here. You take those sunglass off in my classroom.
Deuce lifted his hands.
Deuce: Man, you don't want me to do that.
Y/N: You really don't.
Zarr looked at you.
Zarr: And what are you supposed to be? Let me guess. Your momma was a mermaid and your daddy was a minotaur and you got stuck with both human halves.
You narrowed your eyes. You turned to Deuce, and nodded. Deuce shrugged and pulled his hood down, as well as took his sunglasses off. Everyone used their books to shield their eyes.
You watched as Mr. Lameo was turned to stone in a blink of an eye. You stood up and dusted your hands off.
Y/N: Class dismissed, y'all.
Everyone cheered and started to rush out of the room. On their way, they crudly decorated the frozen substitute until he looked more like a mannequin at a party store. You and Deuce stopped by him and your shrugged.
Y/N: I think it wears off in a few hours.
Deuce: Usually.
You both laughed and left the classroom, leaving Mr. Lou Zarr alone in the dark.
----------------
Science. Yes, it was just called science. This was where you found the most disgusting part of your day. That being when Mr. Hackington set down a jar of three-eyed toads on his desk.
Mr. Hackington: Today's lesson, DIEssection.
Lagoona gasped, making you sigh.
Lagoona: Poor little green bros. Do our hearts not beat the same? Does not the same green blood flow through our veins?
The toad just licked his eye. You didn't feel any way towards it. You had cut into many things both dead and alive. Granted, they were usually trying to eat you, so it was justified.
Lagoona: This is so wrong.
Y/N: This is science. He literally has a jar of eyeballs on his desk. Toads are where you draw the line?
Lagoona: Living toads.
Y/N: Still toads.
Lagoona: We need to free them.
You sighed. You tapped Frankie and whispered something to her. She smiled.
Frankie: Of course. I'm always happy to lend a....hand.
Frankie's hand popped off and crawled over to the front of the room. As it did, you pulled up your sleeve to reveal your bracelet, which had a mini crossbow on it. You unlatched it and loaded it up with a pencil.
Frankie's hand reached Mr. Hackington and started to tickle him, distracting him long enough for you to take aim and shoot the pencil. It soared through the air and hit an old rope which snapped. It dropped a bag of sand that fell down and landed on a wooden plank which was placed under the jar of eyeballs. It landed and sent the eyeballs flying into the class.
Everyone immediately started to pick them up and throw them like snowballs while Mr. Hackington laughed the entire time. You winced when a green eye almost hit you.
Y/N: This is so disturbing.
Still, Lagoon and her opening. She quickly snuck to the front of the class and snatched the jar of toads.
Lagoona: No worries. We're out, dudes.
Lagoona made a break for it. And once class was over, you all left while Mr. Hackington tried to catch his breathe. You found Lagoona in the halls where you found that she looked pretty proud of her work.
Y/N: So, uh, where are they?
Lagoona: I found a place where they can chill.
You suddenly heard a scream and looked over to the ghouls bathroom. Cleo ran out and started to scream about toads. You sighed and decided that it was out of your hands. You and Lagoona just slowly walked away.
--------------
You sat at the table with Abbey and Bloodgood and enjoyed some delicious roast that wasn't burnt this time. Abbey knew her meats.
Bloodgood: So, did anything interesting happen today?
You and Abbey both looked at each other, thought about it, and shrugged.
Y/N: Not really. Same old, same old.
Abbey: Indeed.
Bloodgood decided to leave it and went back to eating.
