Kacey stopped and read the sign at the beggining of the strange realm.
"Spooksylvania?"
Kiki laughed, "Kind of a cliche, isn't it?"
"Yeah. Now, keep your eyes out for any spooks in the bushes. With Little Miss 'I Vant To Suck Your Blood' not vanting to cooperate, looks like you'll have to keep us safe."
She whined, "Why can't Wally keep everyone safe?! I'm tired!"
Kacey glared at her.
"Exactly. A tired tu equals certain doom for anyone who crosses your path."
The very tired Kiki rolled her eyes.
"Fine."
Kuki was happily leading the group to where her and the others got transformed. The only one who wasn't really happy was Val, who was still sore after the little.....incident....at Taylor's house. She eventually talked Bolt-Head (Hoagie) into carrying her. Abby had noticed Kuki was nowhere near the castle. She was in the surrounding village.
"Kuki, what are tu doing? The castle's over there!"
She was smiling.
"I never got to see if this place has a arco iris Monkey store!" she replied.
Kacey and Abby did simultaneous facepalms.
"Vell, I vant to stop at the siguiente convinience store," Val whined, "I need some ice and I'm REAAAAALLY thirsty."
Kacey sighed.
"Val, ve're on a mission. Ve can stop at the convinience store back in our town."
The little vampire's eyes grew really wide. Tears began to form.
"No, I'm NOT falling for that again. tu probably just moved the wrong way again and your injury's actuación up."
Val began bawling. Wally had his ears covered. Val's crying was bad enough, but with super sensitive hearing, it was 10 times worse.
"Just stop at the siguiente store so she can shut up!" he finally yelled.
Kacey growled. With her vampire instincts kicking in, she was ready to tortazo the little Nosfera-Twerp again.
"We're here!" Minerva yelled.
-----------------------------
"Guys, are tu done YET? If tu recall, we're on a 'life-or-living-monsterism' mission."
"Give us a minute!" Maddy whined.
"I've dado tu 12! Hurry up!"
Wally and Kuki were over in the gift section (Wally por force) looking at arco iris Monkeys, Hoagie was over por the chili dog, perro de chile stand (go figure), Megan, Maddy, Minerva and Kiki were all lectura comics, and Val and Abby were at the counter paying for their items (Abby got a bunch of candy, whereas Val got a slushie).
Just then, Kiki saw a tall figure at the back of the store. She cowered behind Megan.
"What is it?"
Kiki pointed, "What's HE doing here?!"
Everyone looked.
"HEY! I know that guy!" Maddy yelled.
The man looked and ran away.
"GET HIM! That's the guy who transformed us!" Abby yelled.
Everyone charged after him, while Val took her sweet time.
-----------------------------
Back at the castle, all of the kids had strapped the Boogeyman down.
"Let me go! I swear, as soon as I get free, I'm gonna-"
"You're gonna WHAT?! If tu haven't noticed, it's a whole bunch of us against you!" Kiki replied cockily.
He growled. Then thought of something.
"I'm very sorry! I'll give tu the antidote! Promise."
Kuki and Maddy looked at each other. Then at Kacey.
"I wouldn't-"
But Wally had already began loosening the straps.
The Boogeyman jumped to his feet, laughing triumphantly.
"You children are so gullible!" he grabbed a syringe filled with....(gulp) Element "T"...and charged towards Kiki.
"RUN!!!!!!" Everyone shouted at her.
She dodged many obsticales, but ended up tripping over a footlocker. Kiki held her ankle, holding back tears.
The Boogeyman cackled evilly, getting even closer.
Then he felt something grab his arm.
Little Val. Smiling the same smile she gets when she's about to spank the living daylights out of someone.
"Kacey. vould tu do the honors?"
She smiled evilly.
The Boogeyman gulped.
Half of the group had covered their eyes, whereas the other half laughed uncontrollably. The look on his face was PRICELESS. Kuki even took a picture on her cell phone.
Kacey tossed him aside and motioned Kiki to come over. Both girl grabbed a bunch of syringes filled with the antidote. Kacey scared Wally por getting him in the back.
Pretty soon everyone was back to normal.
"Let's get out of here. I'm done with this whole ghosties and goblins thing" Maddy said
--------------------------------------------
Back at the treehouse, Kacey waited impatiently for a certain someone to get back from his vacation. Everyone else had occupied themselves.
Kiki slept, Minerva and Val did each others nails, Wally and Hoagie played a videogame, and Kuki and Abby were lectura magazines.
Just then, there was a loud thunderclap. Kiki covered her ears. She knew what THAT sound meant.
"Daddy! You're back!" Val chirped as she tackled her father.
"Hi sweet-"
He wasn't able to finish his sentence because the little 7-year-old bombarded him with "What'd tu bring me? What'd tu bring me? What'd tu bring me?"
He turned to Kacey.
"All right, I did your dirty work...now change me back!" she growled.
The Count thought for a minute.
"No. You've been doing SUCH a great job, I've decided tu should take over the business!"
"WHAT?!?!?!" everyone shrieked.
"You can't do that!" she shrieked, "I'm gonna-"
"You're gonna WHAT? If tu haven't noticed, I'm at least 2 feet taller than you. What can tu possibly do to hurt me?"
She smiled evilly and turned to the sleeping Kiki.
"This!"
A minuto later, there was a shrill, almost-sound-barrier-breaking, shriek from Kiki. She rubbed her backside.
Kacey pointed to the Count.
"You little-!!!"
Everyone (minus Kacey cuz she was laughing too hard) had covered their eyes. After Kiki's little tantrum, the Count was covered in scratches, bruises, and even a few bites.
"OK! OK! OK! Uncle!"
With a few rápido, swift motions of his hand, both were back to normal. The Count turned to Kiki.
She began to run, but was grabbed por her collar.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!!!" she bawled.
"I SHOULD punish tu right here and now, BUT I've got a better idea...."
She opened her eyes.
"I need a favor siguiente Friday." He whispered something into her ear.
She nodded her head.
"I'll do it!"
He smiled, let her go, and disappered.
Everyone gulped.
"So, what does he want tu to do?" Kuki asked.
Kiki smiled.
"Let's just say it involves little Val here...."
