I am so glad everything turned out the way it did. So far we got introduced to new monsters. There is Frankenstein who is apparently Johnny-steins cousin of the right hand. Johnny and I now know the names of Dracula's kids. Mavis and Markus, both very curious and like to have fun. Or at least that's what I have been picking up from them.

After being scared out of our hiding spot that Dracula told us to stay in. We were forced to introduce ourselves to these new monsters. To make sure we don't get killed we had to make up weird stories about ourselves.

"Well, whoever is a friend of my cousin is a friend of mine!" Frankenstein said not even a bit suspicious. He came over to me for a handshake and on instinct, I brought my hands up in front of me to protect myself. Luckily Dracula got in between me and Frankenstein and swatted his handshake away from me. Oh thank lord, I don't think I would have survived that.

"I think she gets it, Frank, you are very friendly, no need to shake hands now," Dracula said trying to sound as nice as possible but I know he just does not like the situation we have gotten into. Frankenstein just nodded and backed away to his original spot.

"So, what brings you here, Johnny, Glendella?" Someone said out of nowhere. Johnny moves away from the voice and looked spooked out. I followed his lead and let out a small scream. We are now positioned in front of Frankenstein and the other two monsters. They looked down at us confused.

"Ahh! Who's that?!" Johnny said looking around until we both landed our eyes on glasses that were flouting. Well, at first I thought they were floating but I soon realized that it was a person who invisible! The glasses moved with the person who was talking.

"Oh, sorry. I should really clear my throat when I speak. Anyway, what brings the two of you here?" The invisible man said. His glasses still shake with every word he says. I can see Johnny's curiosity peak because he was about to touch him before I slapped his hand down.

"Oh, uh... Party Planner?" Johnny said nervously. Very convincing. I just stood by him nodding my head.

"Yes! I've recruited Mr. uh... Stein and Miss Ella here to help me with the twin's birthday party." Dracula said playing along. He moves closer between Johnny and Me and puts a hand on both of our shoulders. We both put on a friendly smile.

"Wait a minute. You asked someone to help you?" The mummy man spoke in disbelief. A lot of people are surprised by this.

"Captain Control Freak?" The werewolf said. That makes sense, I could see Dracula being a control freak.

"It's "Count"... and yes, I thought having a monster closer to their contemporary age would be useful," Dracula said while standing up straight and tall confidently.

"Yeah, he totally needed a fresher perspective. " Johnny jumped in thinking it would help the situation. It only got a glare from Dracula. I let out a small laugh. These two are complete opposites.

" What Johnny was trying to say. Because the twins are turning 118, He agrees it was a good idea to get us so Dracula can have a younger perspective during this party." I explained to them. The three amigos looked back at each other surprised and happy. Dracula also looked thankful for my explanation as it turned out to help a lot in persuading them.

"Okay, Johnny, Ella, Mr. Tight Coffin over here was planning to have these powdered lame-o's play at the party." the werewolf dude explained. He motioned over to the three zombies that were being bullied just a few min ago. The three zombies in response gave a small moan while looking down. Johnny and I looked back at the three amigos.

"So, anyway, we thought we could liven things up a bit," Frankenstein said while hugging his two other friends and they all smiled at us. To be honest, anything would be better than those zombies performing.

"Whoa! You all play? Let's check you guys out!" Johnny said surprised. He pointed at them then to the stage while Dracula just looked shocked from this scene.

"Yeah! Lay it on us! Let's see how good you guys are." I jumped in also wanting to see what they got. In the corner of my eye, I saw Markus hop on the table Mavis was at and sat next to her. I could see they were exchanging some words with each other.

After a few minutes of the three set up, they started performing. Let me tell you it was not bad but not what the party needs.

" Girl I can't believe it's your big night." Frankenstein started to sing. He was on the guitar while the sandman was on the bass, and the werewolf guy was playing the piano? There is also a drum set behind him so maybe he plays both.

The mood of this song sounds either sad or romantic and very much not what's needed for the twin's party. It also looks like I wasn't the only one thinking this because when looking over to my right. I saw Johnny, Dracula, Mavis, and Markus walk closer to the stage and all look up with their mouth slightly opened.

"Seems like only yesterday you were eating mosquitos." Mummy man continued to sing. Oh, wait there is a person on the drums. The invisible man looks like I forgot about him. He started playing the drums at a slow pace.

"But now your eating frogs and mice." They all started to sing together now. " Scarfing them down like Doritos." This song isn't bad but come on..."Tell me where did the time go, girl"

Behind us were other monsters eating and listening to the performance. It had the atmosphere of an old coffee place about to close down for the night. I gotta stop this.

"Whoa, guys stop! Just for a second. I am sorry but this song is way too...what's the word" I began to say trying to figure out a nice way of putting this.

"It's cute, but kind of old school." Johnny continued for me. I nodded in agreement. The three zombies walked closer to us and stood behind Dracula.

" Yes, thank you, Johnny, Ella" Dracula agreed and the zombies moaned in agreement. On the very far right of me, I saw the twins look over to their dad unimpressed. Mavis had her arms crossed while Markus had his arms up and resting on his head he looked bored.

"You got to tempo things up." Johnny suggested and Dracula not expecting that from him gave out a 'What'.

"Totally. Good call Johnny. Why don't you join them and give out an example?" I suggested while pushing Johnny up on stage with them. For a short second, Johnny didn't agree but then he went along with it and started having fun. I have known Johnny for a long time. If it's anyone that can make a dull moment fun it's Johnny.

"What?! Oh well okay then. Werewolf man, give me a jam!" Johnny yelled out pointing to him. He grabbed the sandman's bass while the werewolf man nervously pressed on the piano keys.

" Two, three, four!" I yelled out hyping up Johnny. I got a couple of weird stares but I just ignored them. I also heard a few laughs from over the Dracula's family.

"Vampire girl with the fangy fangs, Hair real cute with the bangy bangs" He sang while only looking over at Mavis. This is a new way of flirting Johnny. Never knew you had it in ya. Especially when her father is right next to her. Oh speaking of father, Dracula's face, PRICELESS!

Mavis's reaction was adorable. She got a little shy and tucked in her hair behind her left ear. His brother was nudging her, probably his way of teasing her. I could hear a few other monsters getting into this and started walking closer to the stage. It was now getting crowded and other people started pushing around.

Not knowing where to go I tried to stay close to the Dracula family and ended up bumping into Markus. I looked up at him to apologized and I saw he was already looking down at me with a small smirk. I have a feeling this wasn't an accident.

"Little princess gonna be a queen, Legal bat twins turning 118, say 118!" I could still hear Johnny singing but it becomes more of a mumble. My attention was now on Markus and how close we were.

"Is this just me? Or are we in this position a lot?" Markus commented while gesturing to how close we are. I tried stepping back to give us some distance but the crowd started to compacted more.

"Ironically it's always you who show up in front of me," I said with a smile. Even though I had a guess he was doing this on purpose. He lets out a laugh while looking around before once again looking into my eyes.

"I would say it's a coincidence but-," Markus cuts himself off by moving both of us out of the way. Why you may ask. Because Johnny decided to JUMP off the stage and into the crowd. Look like he got way into this performance. I did a quick stare at Johnny like everyone else. Luckily he was alright, his head popped up his and he said a few things. There was a moment of silence.

"Well, that's my cue to see if Johnny's alright. I will talk to you later" I gave him a wink then got out of his hold to walk over to Johnny. Getting to him was pretty easy because of the crowded parted ways when he decided to Jump. I reached out my hand for him to grab and he did.

"Nice nose dive" I joked while pulling him up. He gave a laugh in responses.

"I'm so blown away right now!" Mavis yelled out while moving to where we were. Glad she's not weirded out by Johnny. "I think my cuz and his friend is gonna make this the best party ever!" Frankenstein said hyped while picking up Johnny by his collar.

"Yeah! Maybe he can find a way to get me some chicks." The sandman said while popping up to my right. Markus showed up next to Mavis's left. I could only laugh while watching this scene unfold. The whole crowd started yelling out ideas on what to do next with us party planners and I heard from the crowd 'Dance contest'. Not a bad idea. I am getting into this role.

Before either of us could respond, Dracula floated up above the crowd dramatically. " We're not doing any of that! We've got to stay on schedule. Alright?" The whole crowd became silent. Johnny looked over at Dracula nervously while I just kinda glared at him. He's no fun.

"Alright! Dad, we get it" Markus yelled back at him not even bothered to look over at him. Mavis rolled her eyes while also agreeing with her brother. "Johnny, Ella. You two are coming right?" Mavis asked us while touching Johnny's arm. Her question got the other monsters excited again.

"We don't know. If it's cool with Dracula" Johnny said for the both of us while we looked around the crowd. I could tell Dracula was giving us a death glare. I can't tell if we should be scared for our lives or roll with it.
