The First Night of Winter Howliday.
The Final SKRM Match of the Season.
It's for the Championship.Soon...Atomica arrived at the locker doom with Tori Underbridge and Cassie. All three of them had new pairs of skates - they still had that new skate smell. And all three of them were angry."Looks like we're the first Nightmares to arrive." Atomica scanned the locker doom. None of the rest of the team had come yet. They were pretty early, even for warmups. "So I guess we have our pick of lockers."
Atomica threw her gear into the locker marked "Robecca Steam." She paused...pulled her things out and closed the team captain's locker. She thought about Rocco's words, calling her a poor substitution for Robecca."I am going to sign Rocco up for every single one of the BOJANGLES' e-maul newsletters..." She ranted to herself quietly.

Atomica Servo "So I guess we have our pick of lockers." "I am going to sign Rocco up for every single one of the BOJANGLES' e-maul newsletters..." Cassie slumped onto a bench to tie her new skates, they were slightly uncomfortable as new skates are. She let out a long sigh, clenching her fists. 'Dont ruin this, keep it together, dont ruin this, keep it together' She repeated that inside her head She was extremely nervous, extremely distracted...She wasnt even listening to Atomica, but she figured it out. throwing her things in a random locker. She sighed "it will be alright" she said aloud to herself

The mood was real, and the Ghouls looked tense, those insults, clearly hit home for some of them. Tossing her things into a locker, It used to be Rochell's, she couldn't help but scuff at the irony, that she was about to battle her former teammates of Granite City.
But this was not the time to get angry, she needed to save that for the match. Time to talk strategy.
"I know one thing. Those rock-heads can't swim. I'm shoulder checking the first one I see into mote, very chance I get." This was something very dark, and unlike the usual happy Troll.

The Mermancer sighs deeply, finding her seat on a stony bench on the schools Home isles. Although it is seemingly hours before the tournament starts, she feels called to the catacombs. Whispers from the spirits of SKRM were calling her name. Necrolin takes a heavy sigh again, fixing her bonnet and floofing her skirt. This is the closest she will ever be able to participate in this wonderful sport... As long as her mummy held her chained down.

Meanwhile, in the BOOS' locker room...
Glen finished strapping his helmet snugly onto his head, doing so only because his mom was adamant about his wearing one, especially now! Boo! This was going to be his first SKRM match ever without having the use of his wand, so it was going to be a hexperience -- and he was looking forward to it! The thrills! The spills! The challenges! Plus, he did have a spell or two he was capable of without his wand, and he had Cleo's trinkets just in case things got a little too hairy. (Pity he still wasn't sure how most of them worked!)
Glen skated over to sit down next to Nero... and found stopping a bit of a challenge as he sailed right past Coach Clawd and -- CRASH! Clawd, and several of the team winced openly as Glen pried himself loose from where he had gotten wedged in a locker and skated back and he took his seat next to Nero.
Around them were a few disgruntled members of the team, still wrapped in bandages and unable to play in this most important of games! They still had mainstay boos like Gil and Heath, but Deuce and Manny were still banged up and were not cleared by the school hearse. Still! They had plenty other boos, like himself and Nero ... Finnegan "Ryder" Wake and Bram Devein and a few others! Even Clawd was stepping in, pulling double duty as coach and participant!
Yep! They had this one in the bag!
"Okay guys!" Coach Clawd walked up to give the usual pre-game pep chat. "I don't have to tell you just how important this one is. It's for the championship! We took it last year, and we can do it again this year!"
The team looked to each other, confident smiles and nods, despite the fact they were not at full strength and unfortunately, Granite City was.
Coach Clawd said, "It's not going to be easy with a few of our team members out of action, but we have some subs to fill in and we... we really need this one! Just to shut Granite City up!"
"And to make sure we don't have to drink Red Ghoul out of their skates..." Bram muttered, shooting Glen a look.
The rest of the team cast Glen a look as well for that bet he made with the opposing team on everyone's behalf. Their looks were lost on Glen who just winked and gave Clawd a double thumbs up.
Clawd clapped his hands together in a final rally, "Okay! Now I want us to go out there and..."
Suddenly the locker room door swung open with a bang, startling everybluddy inside and they covered their ears at the sound of a trombone blaring!
"MONSTER HIGH SKRM TEAM!" The ever-annoying New Dead clique marched into the locker room, dressed in half-rate SKRM booniforms, complete with helmets baring purple (fake) unicorn horns. As Hexavier played the trombone in his claws, and Corpse-E danved behind him, Moldy shouted over the blaring boosic... "IT'S TIME! TIME FOR THE NEW DEAD TO SAVE...!"
A collective...
"GET OUT!!!"
And the locker room doors flew open again and the New Dead were hurled out into the hall!

Other team members were starting to file into the locker room now, including the team captain, Robecca Steam. She was still hobbling on a crutch, thanks to her broken knee pin, but she seemed to be in good spirits.
"Fangs for pitching in, Tori!" The robo-ghoul told the troll after Atomica introduced Tori as a replacement member for the team. She decided it was beast not to mention Granite City's taunting. "What about Necrolin? Is she going to skate?"
Atomica grimaced.
"No, she proved to be currently unsuitable. Maybe next season." Was all Atomica could say. Personally, she thought Nekki was plenty suitable. But all of her whining about how weak she was and crashing into Cassie during practice earlier meant she was not 100% committed to the team - and that could have dire consequences.
"But we will still win!" Atomica finished up with saying smacking a fist into an open palm. "I will not let those smug rock-brained jerks claim victory!"
"That's the ghoul spirit!" Lagoona agreed. "Come on, ghouls! We have to join up with the rest of the team for our strategy meeting before the crowds start arriving..."

"Any time, Robecca, it's was like a calling." She skated w the other ghouls to meet up with the boys.
"Here's strategy for you. Beat the other team.". She was only half joke, but there a dead serious tone to her voice. Creepy

Nekki continued to think. "no..." she looks up to the ceiling. "... This isn't going anywhere..." the ghoul stands(?) up, suddenly gaining a burst of confidence and strength, feelings she's never hexperienced before. Suddenly... *BAM*she bursts through the locker room door. "Ghouls!" She wasn't whispering anymore. "Get me back on the team! Or else!"What. The necromer pushes her way over to a bench, pulls her mer-skates out of nowhere and straps them on. The mer winces, her tail feeling a sharp pain when she tightened the laces. "My mummy is going to kill me..."Until she realized that she's already a dead fish.

Marceline carefully laced her skates tightly to her legs, which were wrapped in layers of thick bandages to protect her exposed leg bones. One last bout for the season... she was sad, but also partially relieved; as much as she enjoyed SKRM, there were definitely a few more hairline fractures in her bones since she started playing! Hopefully, she thought, softskull would be a bit easier on her come springtime...
As she waited for Atomica to round the team up for one final pep talk, she kept herself occupied by browsing her Instagrim feed... when she noticed an odd post by her brother Kriminel... his grinning face, gold teeth shining, with Maman and The Baron squeezed into the frame on either side of him, looking excited.Quote: Me and the fam in the stands #MonsterHigh to cheer on my baby sister @meangreenvoodooqueen!! Don't tell her, it's a surprise!! #SKRM #GoNightmares!

Cassandra stood up, she wobbled a bit trying to get used to the new skates. She went to atomica's side,
"Do you...do you think we could really win?" She hugged herself looking down at her skates.
"I messed up earlier I-" she sighed
"It's just- things haven't been really good for me today... I dunno. Just forget about what I just said"

Cassandra MH Cassandra stood up, she wobbled a bit trying to get used to the new skates. She went to atomica's side, "Do you...do you think we could really win?" She hugged herself looking down at her skates. "I messed up earlier I-" she sighed "It's just- things haven't been really good for me today... I dunno. Just forget about what I just said" the shouting makes the mer lose her voice. "we can do this! We our Monster High!" She hexclaims, "let me tell you what we have that those stupid stone-heads don't! They all have the same weakness! Besides our bond, what we also have technically is variety! Of course we have advantage!" Nekki pulls Cassandra strongly on her feet. "Tighten those dolly screws! Get in shape! Lets smash these rocks!!"

"Are we gonna win?!" Someone in the back asked. He was quickly answered "YES!"
"Are we gonna stomp those gargoyles?!" Atomica shouted. She was just as quickly answered "YES!"
"Let's hear it for our team!" Clawd raised his claws to clap. "MON! STER-HIGH! MON! STER-HIGH!"
Clap! Clap-clap! Clap! Clap-clap! Every monster on the team rallied. Nekki was right - their diversity was their strength! Clapping, they all headed to the locker room for a final skate check as fans from Monster High and Granite City alike started to file into the stands...

Demona walked up to the tops of the stands she couldn't stand sports events, but she hoped Kai would be here. Or Melody, she hadn't really talked to Mel recently. Of course, Demona did hexpect everything not to change, that everything would go back to normal. She sighed and hexted Kai Quote: to: Kai <3 Hey r u coming to the Skrm game? I don't know how these things work. I don't do sports. Quote: have you talked to melody??????

A slightly exhausted Essi slinked her way into the infamous catacombs.Hours ago when she arrived back 'home', there was a "First night of Hauntukah" festivity happening. She ate her fill, said her greetings to all the guests, and participated in the candle lighting....just seven more parties to go! Apparently Mrs.Geoude enjoyed layering her parties out and going by her own jurisdiction.
....She went by Essi's schedule to the ghoul wouldn't be left out at all.
Essi found herself a nice seat in the middle of an all ready filling up bleachers. Oh she hesitated being here!! But she was. Here.
