Monster High is not the only high school for creatures of the night...Luna High is an monster school two towns over from Monster High. Like most monster schools, it is segregated to cater to only one type of monster - Werewolves. Luna High holds its students to a high academic standard for the 160 years they will be attending.
The Luna High school colors are silver and blue. Their team name is the Luna High Wolfpack, and they excel at graveball and soccer. Their team, however, trails dead last in Tennis - they keep refusing to return the tennis balls.
Luna High puts a strong influence on being leaders and rewards those wolves who put themselves at the head of the pack. Principal Rover strives for Luna High to be number one in everything they do. They are the Alpha dogs, and all other schools should look out!

"And to your left, you'll see another stalactite!" Jewels Underne was obviously enjoying her role as leader/tour guide through the underground passageway that wound its way from underneath Monster High to the caverns below Luna High.
"Oooh." Nero Du Sphinx tried to sound impressed, but since this was roughly the eight hundredth stalactite Jewels had shown them, it was pretty strained. He adjusted his shoulders a bit. The caverns were fine to traverse for a short little mole ghoul like Jewels, but a broad-shouldered Sphinx like himself had to lumber along hunched over. It was either that or risk having his glasses bashed in on a...stalactite? Stalagmite? Which one were the ones that hung down again?
"Are we there yet? Are we there yet?" Peggy Springwell asked, partially because this walking in the dark wasn't very exciting, and partly because she knew asking was REALLY annoying Harry Herne, who was trying hard to maintain his zen.
"Almost. I can definitely smell HAX body spray up ahead." Kai Merha informed Peggy. His enhanced 1/3 were-cat senses let him smell the wafts of a werewolf's favorite fragrance, even meters below the surface. Kai wrinkled his nose. The smell just reminded him how angry he was at Luna High and its students for the prank they'd pulled earlier in the afternoon. He could still see, etched indelibly in his mind, the graffiti they'd splashed all over the commemorative banner the Art Class students had made. He could still hear the sounds of Luna High-colored balloons falling from the ceiling and popping. He could still taste the bitter shock of humiliation.
Kai had inherited some of his dad's 'mad scientist' predispositions, it was true, even if they were directed towards the arts rather than the sciences. He rubbed his claws together and held back just a teeny, tiny bit of maniacal laughter. Oh, they'd show Luna High! They'd SHOW them ALL!
"Is...Kai all right?" Arillena FaeDathanna was heading up the rear of the excursion, next to the stately Layla LaMia. She asked the snake-ghoul earnestly. Kai had seemed so level-headed and sweet when he was giving her the tour of the Monster High schoolgrounds earlier in the week. Now he seemed a little bit...unhinged.
"He isss fine." Layla replied. "He's just passionate about his art. You should sssee his father during an hexperiment."
Layla's iCoffin blazed up, covering both her and Arillena in light. The GPS tracker on it showed that-
"We're here!" Jewels announced cheefully. Above them, a service ladder led to what looked like a utility grate. "Right above us is the Luna High boiler doom!"

As they were walking Ari continuously and subconsciously sent concerned glances to her Artsy friend. She made a mental note to talk to Kai after all this was over to make sure he'd be alright. The Fae looked up excitedly. Already? She still wasn't 100% clear on what she'd be doing. Who was she disguising? Herself? The others? And as What, or Whom? The nervous part of her resurfaced in her head. Oh NOW you're thinking about this?Arillena shook her head and ignored the voice. Luckily the Ghoul was too excited for any of her anxiety to show itself. "So... Now what?" She whispered.

Arillena "So... Now what?" She whispered.
Kai cleared his throat. All right, so he was kinda/sorta the leader of this expedition. This art-themed revenge expedition. This Artspedition. Of doom."Okay, so...well, Arillena, if you could disguise yourself as an average Luna High student and head up there, you could check and see if the ghost is clear." "Watch out for any hall moan-itors, and signal us if we can proceed." Layla added in."Good luck!" Kai whispered at her as they stood around the base of the ladder leading up to the boiler room...

The changeling swallowed her nervousness and peered upwards. Her Shapshifting companion made its appearance and stood next to her in the form of a Siberian husky Puppy. Average Luna high Student? Ari considered as she glanced up at the boiler room entrance. So that's my character.. Let's see. What did she know about Luna high? It was a werewolf school, the colors were Silver and blue... Arillena nodded and closed her eyes A thin silver line spiraled from her feet and climbed to her head. Her ghostly pale skin morphed into lighter almost white fur. Her hair shifted into a short dark grey and black style and her face pointed to give her a little black nose- her elfish ears poofed into white wolf ears atop her head. In a flash she changed her earthy green outfit into a blue and silver spirited skort and jacket. Ari shook her new claws out to make them sharper. "How's this?" The Wolf girl now before them asked. Her voice had lost her accent. "Greatwhatevernowgo Go!" Jewels hurried with anticipation. Ari nodded and scooped up her puppy before climbing. "I'll let you know when the coast is clear~" She promised before disappearing into the boiler room. ~~~ Ari opened the boiler room doors and looked around cautiously. Damyn hopped out of her arms and started sniffing around the hallway. It didn't look like there was anyone around. Maybe everybody went to the game after all... She silently hoped stepping out further. "What do we have here?" A deep voice spoke suddenly behind her. Damyn turned around and started growling- a high puppy like growl- but still. Ari rotated on the spot and looked up at a tall, scruffy looking guy who was studying her curiously with a strange smirk. "Last I checked our Maintenance Manster wasn't a cute ghoul. You lost?" The Luna High Hall Monitor glanced towards the Boiler room. Ari felt a wave of panic wash over her she could feel the anxiety threatening to blow her cover- literally. But she was brought back to her senses by her current Siberian companion who nudged her ankle. "Lost?" Ari heard her current self repeat. A thousand different scenarios spun through her mind like a wheel of fortune. The arrow landed on a personality and Ari rolled with it. She Rubbed her arm nervously and avoided direct eye contact. "I'm sorry, You see I only just moved here recently and I haven't been properly introduced to the school yet..." She began. "I heard there was a big school event today so I thought I come and see before I met the Head of the school.. But-" She glanced down at her Companion who raised an eyebrow. "My dear little Snowball here-" She knelt down and picked him up, "Followed me and ran off. So I've been everywhere trying to find him. Now I.. well I guess I am a little lost now.." Ari batted her now grey eyes. "Um.. Do you think you could show me how to get back to the entrance? This place is bigger than I'm used to and It's a bit overwhelming and.. kinda scary."The real Luna High student raised an eyebrow and leaned towards her. Sniff Sniff Damyn growled at him. Ari hugged her friend closer and looked up with big eyes. "I don't mean to be a bother... But it would mean a lot if someone big and strong like you helped me out."After getting a good whiff of Husky The Hall monitor Smiled. "Sure thing Cutie, Just follow me." Ari sighed with relief and beamed up at him thankfully. She placed 'Snowball' back on the ground and wagged a claw at him. "Now don't go running off again Got it~" She winked subtly. Damyn rolled his eyes and suddenly bolted down the hall and vanished around the corner. "Snowball!" "Don't worry we'll find him.. eventually." The taller wolf shrugged. "Anyway, so what's your name? Where are you from?" He asked as they started walking. He put an arm around Ari's shoulders but the Changeling was too in the zone to care. Her Tail swished victoriously. "Oh I moved here from a little village in Greenland~" "Greenland? That's the... Green island right?""No you're thinking Iceland... "Their voices faded down the hall. Damyn- back into his form of a Dragonfly- surveyed the rest of the hall before diving back underground, luckily Ari had left both entrances open. "Coast is clear. Arillena will rejoin you shortly." It stated out loud to the awaiting party.

"Let's go!" Kai hissed, and one by one, the rest of the Monster High Revenge Squad climbed up the ladder into the boiler doom of Luna High. "Go, go, go!"
Kai was the last one up the ladder, carefully and quietly closing the grating behind him after he ascended. Werewolves had some of the beast hearing in the monster world - and even if Arillena had managed to finesse away one hall moan-itor, there could be others prowling the hallways.
Nero eased the door to the boiler doom open a crack, and peeked out. The coast SEEMED clear. He turned to Layla.
"You've got the map on your iCoffin, right? Which way do we go?"

*CLATTER CRASH SMASH BANG*
It was hardly the most graceful or covert entrance.
Dashner was wedged up against a wall by Chase, who really wasn't at all built to be crammed into a small janitorial closet alone, let alone with other boos.
Perry found himself tangled horribly with a metal shelving unit that had, until just a moment ago, held all manner of tools and equipment. Most of that was now on the floor, and Perry himself was still a little dazed by the wrench that had smashed down onto his head.
thank goodness Peryton had hard heads.
"Major bummer maaan." Shad's voice came through the darkness along with another clatter and a sloshing sound.
"Mop bucket!" He wailed. The half full bucket was jammed on his foot.
"What is the deal with you and closets man?" Perry hissed, feeling around for a light switch or a door handle or anything helpful.
Chase whinnied unhappily.
"Shhh, ok, let's get out of here. I think this is a ... " The door creaked open and the four boos tumbled out into the hall right into the path of...
the Monster High art class?

Shad was completely entangled in his blankey, er, blanket, on the ground, crushed beneath the weight of Perry, Dash and Chase, all who when they tumbled out of the closet, ended up on a 'dog pile' on the poor Sackboo who was nowhere near their respective size.
The kids in the Art Class and their cohorts watched in stunned silence as Chase, Dashner and Perry scrambled up off of Shad who gasped in several deep breaths, then realized his arms were trapped in his own shadows, and his foot...
"Aw moan! These buckets are like the bane of a Sackboos hexistence! The BANE!"
Shad struggled to sit up and with a bit of an assist from Chase, he got to his feet and he started to kick his foot out, trying to dislodge the bucket! With each passing attempt (and failure), Shad grew more and more frantic, spinning in circles until one mighty (!?) kick later, the pail went flying off, causing Layla, Kai and Ari to diive for cover and a clang was heard as the pail met the back of Nero's noggin!
Shad finished his struggles, throwing the blankey -- BLANKET -- from his arms and it fell to the ground. Shad quickly inspected himself and nodded to his spy bros.
"There! That's better..."
But the moment he took his first step forward, Shad tripped and grabbed onto the first thing he could grab -- Dashner's arm... and as Dash fell, he grabbed Chase who grabbed Perry and they fell down onto the inky blanket...

Nero blinked and rubbed the back of his head. At least he'd turned away at the right moment and hadn't taken the bucket full to the face. He dreads and stealth beanie had taken the brunt of the impact but still. Ow.
"Ok, we all saw that, yeah? This isn't post-concussion delusions I'm getting," he asked.
Kai peeped out from behind a box of sawdust, his tail abuzz with leftover adrenaline.
"Yesssss, that wasss a thing we all of us ssssaw," Layla said, descending smoothly from a high shelving unit she had coiled around. In the dark, no one could say whether her frantic ascent had been dignified or not.
Nero felt upwards, stretching himself upright with several loud cracks. Dimly in the light of their iCoffins, he could make out Team Art disentangling themselves from the fallen tools. Harry and Peggy were still arguing as they stood up, Jewels was near one of the shelves units, Layla slithered around with agitation, Kai was covered in extension cords.
That coast had better have been clear, otherwise the whole school would know they were in the boiler room. Maybe they just thought it was the pipes knocking?
Finally his groping yielded what he'd been looking for: a pull chain. With a ping the light came on. The chaos was all that remained of Tornedo Shad and his Band of Bros.

Kai Merha "You've got the map on your iCoffin, right? Which way do we go?"
Layla led the way, her tail gliding on the smooth floors as the others followed along, creeping quietly at her side, each one trying to keep a close eye out."Their grimnasium is centered alongside the main hall of their corridors. Apparently they built it that way ssso that when the Full Moon rises, it shines down into the sssky light and thanks to some mirrors, shimmers into each room."Nero pursed his lips in thought and nodded, "Fancy." He admitted.
Layla continued, "Classes are not in session, as the Graveball team has made their way to our school, and I'm assuming the rest of the students are preparing for the big game themselves.""So if no hall moanitors are here, why are we whispering?" Kai pondered, when Layla cast a hard glance behind her towards her beast bud."Because, soldier. It is not the hall moanitors we have to worry about!" She hissed. "It isss the..."*thump*
Layla walked right into something, or someone, and the others bumped into her as a result of keeping their eyes on everything else but what was in front of them. A rather big, gruff looking werewolf with his fur liberally streaked with gray, wearing a dirty pair of overalls and holding a broom..."...janitor..."

Nero blinked and tried very hard not to step on Layla's tail as he barreled into her, instead careening off a wall. He knocked the side of his skull this time. Graveball players were the ones who get head injuries, not MCs!
Ok, so maybe they had been heard. The janitor loomed down over them. Even Nero had to tilt his head up to look at the beast before them." What are you doing here?," he boomed. Somewhere under his voice was a rasp, what he managing to growl as he talked?! " Schools closed, big game at Mons...hey. YOU'RE NOT LUNA HIGH STUDENTS." From behind was a smothered rattle, probably Kai quaking in his tail. The janitor kept looming further over them. The art class responded by quailing ever lower towards the ground. Nero looked around frantically, how did Harry summon those....er....hounds?
Nero stepped forward and grinned, hoping he looked dashing rather than manic." Uh, we're looking for our friend? Ari? She's, about yea tall, super cute...she was supposed to meet us..." As Nero spoke, the janitor kept growling louder and louder."Brutha, we are done for," Kai mumbled." She...she WAS GOING TO SHOW US AROUND. We're doing a...a piece on Luna High since we're going to play against them and we thought we'd do a profile on the school with a tour from a student and we're just kinda lost because we can't find her and we'll interview you! You can give us this inside scoop!" The janitor's eyes stopped narrowing and his ears perked forward. Was he buying any of this?

Nero de Sphinx "Uh, we're looking for our friend? Ari? She's, about yea tall, super cute...she was supposed to meet us..." As Nero spoke Ari ran around the the corner to the hall and pressed her back against the wall panting. "I think I lost him.. Finally." She Muttered. It had been a challenge ditching the Guy, Ari almost felt bad. He didn't seem like that bad of a person. Oh well~ It was when she heard shouting Ari turned her head, Oh dear... The Fae's ears absorbed everything. She took a deep breath, the Mental wheel of personalities spun in her head and she approached the Janitor from behind- The wheel stopped at the same time her feet did. A personality was decided. "A right good you lot are at keeping up with me." As she spoke her Wolf persona put her claws on her hips. She sounded rather annoyed. "How hard is it for you all to do as your told and NOT wander off?" At this point She was standing next to the Janitor who was looking at her curiously. "I agreed to show you people around out of the goodness of my heart and this is how I am thanked? Honestly, I was about to believe that you Monster High kids were better than that." She shook her head and crossed her arms. "I guess I was wrong." She sighed dramatically. "Why wasn't I made Aware of this little tour?" The janitor asked turning his attention to the white wolf girl next to him, his suspicion was obvious. Ari shrugged and met his glare with one of her own. "Isn't it your job to know? Not mine." She sighed and flipped her hair out her face. "I'm just supposed to show these losers around for an hour and answer whatever questions they come up with before kicking them out and heading to the game. The longer We stand here talking about it means more of my time is wasted." Yep. Arillena was going to be apologizing for hours after this. The Janitor stared at her for a moment, then back at the group. "Well?" Ari began tapping her foot, impatiently.

Arillena "Well?" Ari began tapping her foot, impatiently.
If she didn't nail the lead in the Drama Class play after this, Kai made a note to personally protest.
Nero elbowed Kai in the back."OH! Uh, er, uh-hum...I mean, I'm so sorry, Ari, er, Barksdathanna. As you know I'm one-third werecat and that means my sense of direction is all woooo~" Kai made some wiggly motions with his hands. The janitor chuckled."Huh-huh-huh. Werecats. So lazy and directionless. It figures." The chuckle turned to a snarl at the end, and Kai jumped a little bit. "Well, I'm sure that OUR Janitor's closet is about a million times better than any Monster High janitor closet.""Yeah, it really is." Kai agreed, trying to seem friendly and nonthreatening and non-suspicious as he could. "I especially like your 'Bro-zen' poster on the back of the door here." "You like Bro-zen?!" The Janitor asked, suddenly grinning a wide, pointed grin across his hoary gray face. "It's SUCH a great boovie! I just love how that one song goes..you know...'Let it Bro?'""Oh! Y-yeah," Kai stammered. "It goes, uh..." "Let it bro! Let it broooooo!" The janitor scooped up his mop and started singing into the end of it like a microphone. "Can't hold it back anymoooore!"Kai took a few stunned, frightened steps back. He whispered to Arillena."We should go. Like...NOW." The janitor turned a pirouette and held up the mop for a power chord.
"You know the MOLD NEVER BOTHERED ME ANYWAYSSSSS~"One-by-one, the students slipped past the singing janitor, and took off as fast as they could down the hallway. Nero gritted his teeth."Great. So, that's stuck in my head for the next week, now."The kids turned a corner, fangfully getting out of the line of site of the janitor. At the end of the hallway were two large, metal double-doors."That's it." Layla put away her iCoffin. "That's the grimnasium."

As soon as they were in the clear, Ari dropped her Persona and turned to the group with big teary eyes. "I'm so sorry I didn't mean anything that I said- Wow I was so mean-""Ari." Kai tried to interrupt be she kept going. "I'm sorry I couldn't control my words- I just slipped into a personality that I thought would be the most believable and-""Ari?"
"I definitely DON'T think any of you are losers, I really like you guys- even though I technically haven't actually met a few of you before today- but even so- I'm sorry I hope I didn't go to far-""Ari!" The disguised changeling blinked. "Yes?" "That was Incredible." The Fae sniffled. "R-really?" He nodded. "For a moment I forgot you weren't actually a Student here." Ari sighed with relief. "So... I am Forgiven for my Unintentional meanness?" She asked hopefully as the doors to the Grimnasium were pushed open. There was some silent nodding- and Ari jumped up and hugged two of the others nearest to her.

Just as Ari practically ghoulmped Kai and Layla, Peggy spotted a patrol of Luna High athletes coming down the hallway to to check on the grym. She HEXTREMELY shoved everyone inside except Harry. She pulled him by the antler and started down the hallway towards the patrol.
"Ow! OW! Not the antler!"
"Don't be such a pixie!"
"I AM NOT A-
The Luna athletes surrounded the pair and their alpha leaned in menacingly.
"Well, well...what do we have here? Who are you?"
Harry looked at Peggy. Peggy looked back and nodded towards the alpha as if to say, C'mon, Pixie Boy! Harry knew a fake name was in order here and blurted out the first one he could think of.
"Uh, Fist Rockbone?"
Peggy's slowly turned her head as her mouth dropped open.
"Fist. Rock. Bone. THAT IS THE DUMBEST FAKE NAME EVER! Why don't you just call yourself Gristle McThornBody!?"
"What do you want from me? I panicked! At least didn't say I was Stump Beefknob."
"You think that's any better!? Might as well call yourself Whip Slagcheek!"
"Ugh, I would have used Buck Plankchest first."
"You might as well have used Crunch Buttsteak then!"
"HEY! Just be glad I didn't say Big McLargeHuge!"
"Um...excuse me but-
Harry and Peggy glanced at the alpha and both spoke at once.
"MIND YOUR BUSINESS!"
"We're rapping here, dude."
"Anyway, I would have used Dirk Hardpec."
"I might as well have said Bob Johnson then! Wait...that's not right."
"That's the worst one yet! You forget, I'm supposed to provide a HEXTREME distraction here!"
"No way! I'm the distraction! I was going to lead them in groantest songs!"
"Like...two words. BOOR RING! I was going to use their hallway for a HEXTREME half-pipe! My idea is better!"
"You're cramping my zen, Not Centaur Ghoul! It's groantest songs!"
The bickering over the nature of the distraction continued as the Luna High athletes stared at the pair in disbelief.
