Hellene gasped as chaos descended upon her nice, reasonable ghoul's night out. She wasn't quite sure what these little furious fungal pods were but she suspected they were related to the bro family.
She pulled a can of scare-spray out of her bag and knocked aside a mushroom that was making a grab for Arillena." You get back!" Hellene cried, " you were not invited to this soiree and I am bouncing you from this party!" Barely aiming, she punted a goblin away where it pinged off of Atomica and landed in a nearby trashbin. The tiny army surged forward and Hellene began shaking the scare-spray." Layla! We need a defensive perimeter!" Layla nodded and swiftly encircled the ghouls, coiling twice around them to form a bejeweled, scaly wall with Arilenna, Atomica and Sally in the center. Layla batted the goblins aside as they tried to get nearer." Is thissss part of the movie's promotion? They weren't here before." " Probably caused by a rift in the bro space continuum in theatre 4!" Hellene snarled, " Probably thought they'd stick around and horn in on some real fun!" And with that, she unleashed the fully loaded scare-spray. A cloud of Spring Goremance scented scare-spray engulfed the nearest group of goblins. They coughed and tried running away, but were held fast to the floor. " Goodness, what's in that stuff?" " It's extra-strength, guaranteed fly-proof up to 40 knots. What are we going to do about the rest of them?"

Draconia St George "GIVE US ONE GUTBUSTER SUPREME AND DON'T SKIMP ON THE CHERRY!"
37 minutes later...
131 scoops of eye scream, each a different flavor...
8 bananas...
7 pounds of candy sprinkles...
3 pounds of crushed nuts...
3 jars of cherries...
14 canisters of whipped scream...
6 jars of chocolate syrup...
*WHOMP!*
The gargantuan Gutbuster Supreme special was lowered to the table with a heavy thud (and aid of a fork lift), rattling the table itself, and several others surrounding it. The table strained under the weighty pressure with the monster of a sundae, just as the chair did Lin was seated in inside of his mecha suit.
You could just about hear the choir sing songs of praise all all four teens at the table, with spoons in hand, stared at the dessert with reverence. Well, three out of four ain't bad. Lin? He was staring at the dessert with a greenish tinge in his cheeks and a rumble in the tummy.
Glen got up from his knees, having given proper reverence to this bounty, and each kid (once again, three out of four) looked to each othr with smiles of delight!"Ready?""Set?""GO!"And all eyes in Casket & Robbins watched in amazement as a buzz saw of appetites tore into the Gut Buster, spoons sampling each flavor while digging into the additional toppings! "Lin, aren't you joining us?"Lin looked back and forth to all three members of the double date, his eyes lingering on Draconia for just a trifle longer, before he too picked up his spoon. He dug it into the scoop of strawscary and it seemed to go in slow motion as he brought it towards his open mouth...
His belly wobbled ... as did the spoon..."I can't do it!""Huh?""Do what?""Lin? Is everything all right?""No."
Lin mumbled miserably as his flipped a switch on his mecha suit and the glass shield flipped open. He unbuckled himself from his driver's seat and slowly climbed out, descending the ladder on the right side and dropped to the floor. Lin walked around his chair to Draconia's and took her claws in his own."Thank ye, lass., for a wonderful evenin'." He sighed, his ears drooping. "But I think I'm just kidding myself. Enjoy the rest of yer dessert."Lin saluted the two perplexed boos who watched this hexchange between mouthfuls and their eyes trailed after Lin as he pushed the door to Casket & Robbins open and set foot back into the court of the maul. He found an empty bench nearby and climbed up onto it and had a seat.
*sigh*

Everything happened so fast Arillena couldn't find the words to speak until she was rescued by Layla. The Fae blinked several times before registering The metallic girl's question.
"Um.. I..." Don't panic- DON'T PANIC>... This must be some kind of misunderstanding.. Atomic was staring at her expectantly.
"I-I do like to sing...and um..." Her voice was shaking. "I...I have some knowledge in a..a few instruments... I..." That was half true, as long as she'd lived the Fae had actually mastered several types of instruments. Music and performing was her dormant passion after all.
"Um... What- What is going on I-..." She started shaking, this chaos was a bit much for the timid Fae. Were these goblins with Harry? Why were they trying to Kidnap her and Sally? It was almost too much. The Fae felt her habitual glamour start to act up. Her hair darkened to grey and the black stripes on her skin started to appear.
I really need to learn to not use that magic...

Burly Hurly raced into the group, threw Goobledygook over his shoulder, and rallied his troops to retreat. There was no way he would let the Young Master's butler run back and tattle on the Toenails. They had to capture ghoul the Young Master demanded.
"RETREAT! REGROUP AT THE ROT TOPIC BY THE TOMB CHEESE CART!"
Goblinjas gathered up the comrades that they could and fled in a disorganized fashion. The last to go was Burly Hurly who hefted Goobledygook, shook his fist at the ghouls, and shouted on last taunt.
"THE TOENAILS AREN'T CLIPPED YET! WE'LL BE BACK!"
Meanwhile....
A happy and oblivious Harry sat in his dorm with Kai teaching their kinda look-a-likes more about being them.

Lin McGearloch Lin saluted the two perplexed boos who watched this hexchange between mouthfuls and their eyes trailed after Lin as he pushed the door to Casket & Robbins open and set foot back into the court of the maul. He found an empty bench nearby and climbed up onto it and had a seat.
*sigh*
"If ye want to." He replied, still sounding downtrodden. "Though I bet ye'd rather help your beasties finish that behemouth of a sundae."Draconia peered past Lin to Glen and Chase, still seated inside Casket Robbins, attacking the sundae with a zeal that in no way betrayed the enormous dinners they'd both had.
Draconia shrugged and seated herself next to Lin."I think they're managing it just fine by themselves. I'm sorry if anything happened to make you feel uncomfortable. I truly was having a very fun time, tonight." Draconia reassured the gremlin, who kicked his legs in the air a little bit and traced the screws on the bench with a claw. "Beast date I've had in ages!""It's just..." Lin tried to say, but struggled a bit to find the words. "It's just that everything was so...so bleedin' HUGE tonight! Normally, when I'm out with Gryff an' Atomica, I don't notice how big everything is, but tonight it felt like everyone else was seven feet tall.""Well, I am almost seven feet-" Draconia cut herself off. "Is that what the crazy mechanical suit was about?""Yeah." Lin confessed. "Well, mostly. That and I noticed that the door on the bat-room stall was loose, so I was going to repair it, and by the time I was halfway through I'd already built a hydrological-powered mecha chassis. So I thought I'd kill two normies with one stone, so to speak."
"That's uhh-mazing!" Draconia marveled. "To be honest, I always thought that your most outstanding talent was, er...making things explode."
"Well, I do that too!" Lin replied, a bit of pride puffing out his chest. "I'm a true gremlin, through and through after all! But I find 'lectrics so fascinating...sometimes they're a lot funner when they don't blow up. Or overheat. Or pop. Or spark. Or even melt!"
"Really? Tell you wot..." Draconia stood up and offered Lin her hand. "How about we finish off this date with a nice walk 'round the next block? We can look at the Cryptmas decorations and I'd love to hear more about your 'lectrics' projects.""Really?" Lin asked, his jaw dropping. "You want to hear about that?"
"I do!" Draconia responded. "I heard a rumour at school that you have the only iBlargs in town, and I'm un-DYING to find out just what that thing does!""But what about-" Lin pointed at Glen and Chase, just as Chase let out the heartiest of belches."I think they're going to be just fine without us. I'll drop them a text once they've finished digesting. And I don't know about you....but I think I wouldn't mind walking off all those pancakes.""Okay then!" Lin slid off the bench and offered his arm to Draconia. Draconia stooped down, crouching a tiny bit and accepted it. "Shall we?""We shall!" Draconia replied as the two headed to the nearest Maul exit."Now, the first iBlarg, well, as soon as I got my claws on it, I tore right into the package and got it out. It had this fangtastic button RIGHT in the middle, all shiny an' red, just invitin' me to give it a press, y'know? And I DID, and it up and exploded right there! It was the BEAST THING EVER...."

Arillena began to calm down a bit- but ONLY a bit due to The metallic girl's rapid speech and movements. Stage affects? Well, I guess I have done those before- wait wait wait. The Fae shook her head quickly shaking the dull colour our of her hair, which returned to its semi-natural blonde.
"J-join your band?" She repeated slowly registering everything that was being said. Who is this again? Ari looked around at everyone to see how they were reacting.
"Uh-um..." She remembered Woestock, how there had been several issues regarding...something when she had first arrived but, much of that conversation was forgotten since she had fled in the middle of it. As much as she wanted to help, and as much as the idea of performing with new friends intrigued her... there were a few things that made the Changeling very nervous.
First off, Marceline's name had not gone under the Fae's radar, and after everything with Her and Rory she was a fair amount terrified about their next confrontation. Second off...
"Um... I- I do not wish to be rude but..." She swallowed and took a tiny step forward. "I do not recall...your name. H-have we met yet? I-I am terribly sorry if we have m-my memory is often unreliable..." She nervously glanced around at the others.

"Um.." Atomica. Okay so this is who was yelling. The Timid Changeling hadn't been paying much attention to her surroundings during the Terrifying Food War. Had it really only been yesterday? Arillena's Anxiety seemed to almost last for weeks, months even. "Well I do not really understand why The goblins were trying to kidnap me..." She said honestly. "I um..." She had said earlier that week that she'd be happy to help the BOJANGLES, after hearing about the Event from Kai and Harry. Atomica must have been a part of the same thing. Ari gave a tiny nod. "I-I would be happy to join you- If only for a little while..." She said softly.

Atomica Servo "PLEASE say you'll join my band! Say you'll join Atomica and the Rest In Peace for Woestock tomorrow!!!!!" Sally was still a bit confused about the trolls, but, remembering the offer to join the band, she looked at Atomica. She made it all sound so much fun! Was that all it really took? Sally nodded excitedly, "I would be happy to join!" she said. This was getting better and more exciting as it went on.

Layla watched the proceedings with wide eyes. Even after a full year at Monster High, so much still surprised her about so much -- especially the other kids who were her schoolmates."Can we do that?" Layla asked, looking toward the automaton who seemed t have an answer for everything. Most convenient. Layla shrugged. "I mean, I've never performed before anyone before, except for Mother and her court."Layla looked around to all the other ghouls who Atomica worked tirelessly to recruit to perform for this ... 'event' ... alongside her."I mean, we've never performed with each other -- or rehearsed for that matter.""Have you ever seen a boo or ghoul band in concert?" Hellene smiled. "Nine times out of ten their acts resemble like they haven't either."Atomica's eyebrow cranked up and Hellene held her claw up before she could vocalize an objection."Present company excluded I'm sure."

According to Atomica's calculations, that was four affirmatives and zero negatives. It was happening! The (mostly) All-New, (mostly) All-Different Atomica and the Rest In Peace were a go!
"Ohmighoul." Hot air shot out of Atomica's ears as her internal cooling fans worked their hardest to keep her from overheating. It didn't matter! A billion Sally-caused glitches wouldn't matter at this point!"You don't know how much this means to me!" Atomica gushed. "I'll e-maul you all of the song information - we'll stick to cover songs like 'Ghouls Just Wanna Have Fun' and 'Material Ghoul' and 'Scream Weaver!' And don't worry about the instruments - I'll set them all up later tonight!"
"Well, I guess I can call this a semi-successful Ghouls Night Out." Hellene sighed. "Creating a ghoul band wasn't my original plan but at least it beats standing here outside of the theater and being ambushed by mushroom-wielding goblins or having to deal with the aftermath of a Bro-splosion inside the theater."
"Well, at least-PING!" Atomica tried to say something, but was caught off-guard by a very loud and very embarrassing sound coming out of her mouth instead.
Was that another Sally-glitch?
No....a quick check internally revealed to Atomica what that 'ping' actually was...."FOUND HER! My GPS finally found Marceline!" Atomica hexclaimed at the rest of the ghouls. "She's at the Looking Glass! We could go there fright now and tell her the good boos!"
"Fright...now?..." Arillena didn't sound super psyched by the idea, but Hellene looked pleased."Fact: The Looking Glass DOES serve the best tea on this side of town, even better than the Coffin Bean or Scarbucks but that's mostly because it's imported directly from Avalon where it's picked by sprites and everymonster knows that sprite-picked tea has a charm all its own that no chain barrista can hope to replicate.""So, we're going to the Looking Glassss, then." Layla translated wryly. "There'sss a poetry event going on there right now."
"Poetry? That's PRACTICALLY the same thing as singing, except without notes or backup. Clearly, Marceline is preparing for tomorrow's show! Let's go there now! Can we?! CANWECANWECANWECANWE?!!!" Atomica hopped up and down. The other ghouls looked at each other and shrugged or nodded.
"Plus, it may be wise to move away from here in case those goblinsss decide to regroup." Layla added."Yes, I'd hate to see them waste more mushrooms." Hellene agreed, nudging a few of them closer to the trash bin with her foot. "Still not sure what THAT was about."
"YAY." Atomica hexclaimed, and then led the way for the ghouls as they headed out of the Maul and over to the Looking Glass. "Marceline will be SO SURPRISED when we show her the new band!"

In the local Rot Topic...
Burly Hurly paced back and forth before his Toenails. The ambush had gone spooktacularly wrong. Who knew that Monster High would produce such skilled warrior ghouls? Burly had to rally his troops before they fell into despair.
"Boos of the Toenail Clan, I am Burly Hurly."
Someone muttered that his missing brother, Hurly Burly, was bigger. At least seven claws tall(totally untrue.)
"Yeah, I've heard. He beat kobolds by the hundreds, and if he were here he'd consume those warrior ghouls with fireballs from his eyes and bolts of lightning from his rump! I am Burly Hurly. And I see a whole army of my clanmates here in defiance of the tyranny of the Earlob clan! You have come to fight as free gobs, and free gobs you are. What would you do without fungus? Will you fight those ghouls?"
"Fight? Against that? No, we will run; and not get sprayed by that ghoul with the wings!"
"Aye, fight and you may get sprayed. Run and you'll not sprayed -- at least a while. And dying in your caves many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days for this day, for that for one chance. Just one chance to come back here and tell those ghouls that they may spray our faces with burny goop, but they'll never take our FUNGUS!!!!"
The collective goblins all roared 'FUNGUS!' at once and burst from the Rot Topic to.....find no one but some random Bros. Burly Hurly blinked in confusion.
"Where did those ghouls go?"
One of the Bros looked over.
"Dude, they totally swagged their way to the Looking Glass, Bro. #NBD."
The goblins roared 'FUNGUS!' again and surged towards the exit to find the ghouls and their target. If they could ever figure who their target was.
