(Written by Vlad Von Blair)
Sunday, 9:00-12:00 a.m.
I looked at the farewell cards that my old friends gave me from my old school, Horror High, and sighed. Today is the last day for me to live in Horror Town, and I don't know if the new town will let my old vampire soul get a fresh start. I mean, I am a vampire, just like my mom. But she always acts like an energetic human lady who is always ready for a new life.
When I was still murmuring in my empty bedroom with all the farewell cards in my hands, I heard my mom calling downstairs:
“My little batty-boy, come to help your old bat! We are ready to move to Scary Town!!!”
“Coming…” I yawn and use the slowest way (I think; we vampires are not moving very quickly at all) to get down the stairs and walk into the living room. When I walked in, I saw that my mom was already packing everything. When she saw me, she just gave me a big hug.
“Oh, don't use that poker face to look at me, my batty-boy!” She said and smiled. “We are going to Scary Town—a modern, lively town with good views!”
“But, mom…”
“Oh, I know what you're thinking about, my batty boy.” "Said Mom," and shook her head. “You must be afraid if Scary Town lets citizens have any monster racing game, right?” Then, Mom showed me an image of her and the mayor, Shadowblood, standing together. He was giving Mom a trophy for “The champion of the 13th Night Racing Championship.” In that image, Mom was smiling, and Mayor Shadowblood gave a thumbs-up, smiling at the camera with a big grin.
“Look, my batty-boy, even Mayor Shadoblood was supporting this race!” Mom smiled at me. Do you think it is great?”
I looked at the image almost without blinking.
Humph, as a vampire who lived for 150 years. I don’t think Mayor Shadowblood is really supported in any car racing. And I think Mom has just joined an exhibition game. And Mayor Shadoblood is acting like he is interested in car racing by holding this championship.
Although this is my thought, as I don’t want to disappoint my mom, I lied. “Err…Perfect? I saw Mayor Shadowblood’s passion for supporting car racing.”
“That’s good!” smiled Mom. “I know you will love it, so I give you this image to let you know how Scary Town supports a racer like me!”
I blinked at Mom, then looked at the image that my mom gave me.
I am still unsure if Mr. Shadowblood truly supports car racing, or if there's something else.
Then, Mom and I heard car horns outside, and Mom went to answer the door. Then, I saw a male werewolf standing outside the door. He was wearing a red checkered shirt, a white T-shirt, and khaki pants.
“Hi, Harry dear!” Mom said, 'I love you,' and gave the werewolf a big hug and kisses. “I know you are coming to help me and my batty-boy move to Scary Town. Thank you so much!”
“It’s my pleasure to help you with that. Madam Camilla!” Said that the werewolf is called Harry and kissed Mom’s hands. “I even brought my brother to help you. And they are willing to do that!”
“Thank you again!” Said Mom, and hugged Harry. Then she turned to me. “Okay, my batty-boy, now go and help your future daddy pick up the boxes into his big truck. We need to clean up this house now.
I stared at the back of Harry.
So Harry is my future father, right? Actually, I don’t care. Only if his fur won’t clog the drain of the shower.
After we packed up all our stuff and put it into Harry’s truck, we all rode in the truck and drove to Scary Town. When we arrived at a big, gothic-style house, the truck stopped, and we got out of the truck.
“Here we are, madam,” said Harry, hugging Mom’s shoulder. “This is our new home, right?”
“Yes!” said Mom in excitement. “We finally arrived!” Then she tapped my shoulder. “Look at the house, my batty-boy! This is our new home! Larger garage, wider house, and more! I am so excited to start my new life in our new house!” Then she took out her mobile. “But first, we should do our floor plan…”
I suddenly heard a growling voice from my tummy.
“No, Mom… We should go to eat first…” I shook my head and said, “ After a long, long time of arriving in Scary Town, I am hungry…”
Mom smiled at me, then passed me an O-type blood pack. I sighed and took the blood pack and drank it.
Well, let’s hope the following days won’t be a disaster for me…
Monday, 9:00-10:00 a.m.
The next day, after we had settled down in Scary Town. I can finally have a good sleep on my bed. But since today is Monday, I was supposed to go to school. So, I got up, washed, and groomed myself, had breakfast with my family, and then went to Scary High. Just then. I visited the school with Mom (Harry was busy with his work, so he didn’t come with us) and Mr. Darren Hellfire, the principal of Scary High. After that, I walked into Mr. Von Beaston's class. He had a lion’s head and mane. And his eye is jasper colored. He always wears old-style suits and wears a monocle—he looks like an old-fashioned gentleman in an old-fashioned movie.
“Good morning, class!” Said Mr. Beaston in his very powerful tone, “Before we start our first lesson, I would like to introduce our new student here—Mr. Vlad Von Blair!
The whole class clapped their hands or else immediately. And I looked at the whole class.
“Hello, I am Vlad Von Blair. Nice to meet you all.” I tried to be polite to everyone in the class. But I feel the whole class is younger than me—I could be their great-great-great-grandfather, at all.
“Vlad has just moved from Horror Town.” Said Mr. Beaston, and ignored my blank face.“So there might be a lot of stuff he doesn't know about Scary Town! You guys can teach him about that.”
After I introduced myself, I heard the whole class start to murmur:
“Vlad Von Blair? Isn't he the son of the car racer, Camilla Von Blair from Horror High?”
“I heard that the mayor in Horror High didn't let the monsters in their town have car racing! So Camilla was an underground racer in Horror Town, right?”
“Keep quiet, Class!”When the students are still murmuring, Mr. Beaston taps the table angrily and roars in a deep growl. “It's not the right time to judge the new student!”
When the whole class becomes quiet, Mr Beaston sighs and turns to me. “Okay, Mr. Blair, sorry for the bit of chaos just then.” Then, he looks at the front. “There's a blank seat next there,” He told me, “you can take a seat.”
I sighed. “Thanks, Mr Beaston,” I said, then I walked to the empty seats.
To be honest, after 150 years, I have already gotten used to being criticized by other monsters. So I don't care about it.
When I sat down, a purple-skinned boy waved at me. He had long hair and red eyes with one horn on his left forehead. He’s wearing a black hoodie jacket, a purple sweater vest, and a white shirt. He was also wearing blue jeans and short boots.
“Hi, you must be the new student!” He smiled at me. “My name is William Mysterio and it's so nice to see you!”
“Uhh…nice to see you?” To be honest, the boy’s passion scared me, but I tried to be polite back to him. “I am Vald Von Blair, nice to meet you.”
“You like car racing, right?” asked William Mysterio, the boy who was talking with me.
“Eh…”I put on my black jacket. “Yes, yes I did.”
“That's cool!” Said William and smiled at me. “By the way, there's a cool racing game after school. Do you want to check it out with me?”
“Ooh…Okay, I guess?”I nodded. “I will try to come w-”
When I tried to say a word, William suddenly covered my mouth. I look up and see Mr. Beaston looking at us. We've been quiet and looked at the front immediately and Mr Beaston sighs and continues the class.
Monday, 10:00a.m-12:00p.m.
When lunchtime came, I used my slowest way to walk to the cafeteria. Though I am a vampire and enjoy excitement, school life just gives me too much excitement and I can't afford that. I just need to take a rest right now.
Suddenly, I heard a loud sound. I looked up and saw a werewolf girl falling, and her notes were all over the floor. She has curly black hair, but she has some hot pink highlights. She was wearing a neon pink bra, an off-shoulder top with a yellow heart-shaped smiling face on it, and neon blue short jeans. She was also wearing hot pink Platform shoes.
“My notes!” said the werewolf girl and picked them up in panic. “I have to go to Mr. Beaston’s music class after the lunch break…and I can't lose a single one of them…”
I suddenly feel I need to help her, so I walked to her and knelt down to help her pick up the notes.
“Are you ok?”I asked the werewolf girl.
The werewolf girl looked at me and blushed.
“I-I am okay…”Said the werewolf girl, scratching her neck. Then she stood up from the floor with her note. “Thanks for helping me…”
“You are welcome.” I smiled with an awkward smile and gave her the notes she hadn't picked up. “I hope you didn’t get injured.”
“I didn’t, don’t worry.” Said the werewolf girl. Then she suddenly looked at my T-shirt.
“Oh…”She asked. “Is this a souvenir of a car racing game?”
“Yes,” I made my T-shirt. “My mom gave it to me. She said this is for the 13th Night Racing Championship. And my mom joined the race once.”
The Werewolf girl’s eyes suddenly become shiny.
“Your mom?” Said the werewolf girl in excitement. “Can It be…Camilla Von Blair, the famous female car racer from Horror Town?”
“How do you know?”I rolled my eyes at her.
“It’s because I know it from the internet!” The werewolf girl smiled. “And you must be her son, right?”
“Er-” I don’t know what to say at the moment. I just feel very nervous.
“Yes, I am…”I scratched my head a bit. “I am Vlad.”
“Haily.” The werewolf girl smiled at me. “I am the co-founder of the sports club. Nice to meet you!” Then she shook my hand passionately.
“Hi?” I still feel a bit confused and a bit nervous. And then, she handed me a poster.
“Here’s a poster of tonight’s car racing game!” Said Hailey, the girl who’s talking with me. “Hope you will come to join!”
I looked at the poster:
THE 666th Night Racing Championship-Monster Teen Cup
Open for sign-up
The winner of the game will get a coupon from ForeverNight Gas Station
“Oh, I know this game.” I smiled back. “William just told me about this game this morning."
“So will you join this championship?”said Hailey.
“Of course I will.” I smiled at Hailey.
“So, see you tonight!” Said Hailey with a cheerful smile.
“See you.” I smiled back.
After Hailey left, I put the poster under the tray and felt excited about tonight.
Finally, there’s a Scary Town activity that can make
