Scary Monsters-9: The Curse of the Sad Mummy
Meanwhile at the backstage, Glory went back to the dressing room where she took off her pirate costume and dons a mummy costume. Then she ties her hair into pigtails with white scrunchies. Soon after, she puts on black eyeshadow and pale peach lipstick.
Then she crept a smile at the mirror.
"Perfect." Glory mutters as she puts the lipstick back to the makeup kit and heads out where she meets her tiny floating elder at backstage.
"Aaaah there you are Sundrop. Crewel made that mummy costume well done." Merlin compliments and Glory bobs her head with a smile.
"Thanks Merlin." She replies.
"Are you wore the glow in the dark eye contacts right now?" He inquires as Glory rolls her eyes with a grin.
"Yes, Merlin. I'm wearing them right now and I have a heart that glows in the dark." She told him as she walks up to the microphone and place it to her lips.
Meanwhile at the lounge, everyone is murmuring about the next performance.
"I wonder who's going to be next?" Scarabia asks.
"Pomefiore obviously! We all know that Empress has the grace, looks, and beauty. Any costume she wears, we adore it to the fullest!" The pomefiore student assures.
"As if! Diasomnia will go up next!" The Diasomnia student retorts.
"No way! Octavinelle will go up next!" The Octavinelle student chimes as the fan boys start to bicker back and forth until...
"HEEEEY STOP YOUR YELLING!!" Sebek barks at the obnoxious fan boys.
"Sebek, sit back down. People are staring." Malleus orders him feeling the stares from the audience.
"Honestly, you need to lower your voice." Silver sighs.
"Kukuku. No need to worry there, Sebek. I'm sure that the next performance will blow us away." Lilia implies.
"Correct you are, Lilia. Though we don't know who is up next but whatever the case is, it's going to be thrilling. ~fufufu~." He chuckles with a smirk waiting with anticipation.
"~fufufu~. Surely you could at least contain yourself." Jade mockingly scolds while grinning with amusement.
"Ne ne ne. Is Lionfishie performing to us next?" Floyd asks bouncing on his seat like a child.
"Who knows. Let's find out and see." Jade assures, but soon everyone went dark.
"Eeh?! What's happening?!" Deuce yelps.
"Ffgya! It's dark again!" Grim shrieks.
"Calm down, it's about to start." Jamil reassures them.
"Oh? It's about to start?" Crowley asks curiously.
"Indeed headmaster." Vivien replies.
"Can't wait to see how it turns out." Sam said with a grin and his magenta eyes glint with anticipation.
"My~ Talk about a thrilling performance, but how about we tone it down a little? ...Something that will tung your heartstrings but warm your poor little hearts of yours~? Ladies and gents, please welcome to the stage. The innocent but tragic mummy: Deirdre." Glory announced surprising her boyfriends as they all whip their heads to the Octavinelle trio who are unfazed by the announcement since they knew it was going to happened.
"Yes! I knew it!" Floyd chirps pumping his fist like a child.
"Well well, what a coincidence." Azul stated with an amused smirk.
"Fufu. What do you know, it's our turn now." Jade chimes with a delightful smile.
"You guys thought this whole time didn't ya?" Grim asks dryly.
"Maybe." Jade replies with a fake grin as the trio chuckled softly sweatdropping the boys.
"You guys are so shady..." Epel mutters.
"They're from Octavinelle. What can you expect?" Ace bluntly told him.
"All of you, quiet! The performance is about to start!" Riddle shushes. Soon the music plays with a soft gentle melody from the piano when they all spun their heads to the curtains open to reveal a coffin baffling the audience, Grim, and her boyfriends.
"Eeh? What's that?" Grim asks curiously.
"It's a coffin..?" Deuce said tilting his head.
"Course it's a coffin. What can you-! Aah!" Ace and the others shrieked when the coffin opens revealing a hand as it shoved the lid away revealing Glory in a sexy mummy costume.
As soon as reveals herself in a mummy costume, the fan club members starts fawning over Glory including the Octavinelle members.
"Aah! Just look at our Ophelia!"
"So spooky yet alluring!"
"She's one sexy mummy for sure!"
"AAAAAHHHHH!! Lionfishie looks so cute!"
"Oya. It must've took her long to get the outfit right for our theme. Right, Azul?" Jade asks darting his heterochromia eyes plastering with a sly smirk when he saw Azul blushing beet red.
"Ehehehe! Azul's blushing!!!" Floyd cackles.
"Guys!! I can't hear!" Deuce shouts. Back at the stage, Glory wraps herself lowering her head down as the melodic slow tempo plays throughout the lounge.
"Every child in Valoran has heard the tale before
About the cursed mummy girl who felt her heart no more..."
She narrates as she unwraps herself to show a small red heart glows from her right chest awing her audience.
"Ffgya! Her heart glows!" Grim shrieks pointing his paw at her glowing heart as it fades away and turns her heels as she began staggering around the stage.
"So sad and lorn, the helpless lad, Deidre was her name
She ventured out to find a friend and learn about her bane."
She sang as she saunters through the stage until Glory steps off from three stage and starts strolling through the lounge like she's wandering in the deep forest but soon caught them off guard when she stops walking and throws a rag to the ceiling that caught the crescent moon decorative completely she swoops up to it with the ghost's assistance while being invisible. Soon after she sat on the crescent moon, Glory starts singing the second verse while holding on to the crescent moon decorative so she won't fall.
"For many years, young Deidre traveled through the lands
Determined to make friends, if only they would understand
But even when Deidre stood upon the ledge of home
Her hope would disappoint her, and she would remain alone..."
She marvels and soon a black aura hovers around Glory stunning yet sends shivers down to her audience's spines.
"But then the curse began to whisper in her ear..."
"You'll be alone forever until your last breath..." The dark aura murmurs floating around her just to hear the audience gasping and feeling their hearts thug from the harsh reality from "Deidre's curse". "Shocked" by what she just learned, Glory playing the role of Deidre, widen her eyes filled with shock and terror before finding the verse.
"And would confirm what was Deidre's biggest fear
It pledged that never shall someone become her friend
It pledged that she shall be alone until her end..."
She harmonizes and Glory sulks her head down as the crescent moon lowers her back to the ground. Soon she hops out of the crescent moon and staggers to the Octavinelle trio until she reaches to Azul when she lays her hands on his shoulders lifting her head with red eyes glowing as tears flow down from her eyes shocking yet feels his heart shattered to see her cry.
"The sorrow and despair
Became too much to bear...."
Then Glory soon floats above the air once again, but this time rags spiral out of nowhere shocking and frightening everyone on stage as it grabs both Azul and the leech twins.
"Gah!" Ruggie shrieks.
"Ffgya! That scared me out of nowhere!" Grim yelps freaking out by the sudden tape that grabs the Octavinelle trio.
"Holy crap!" Ace shrieks as they witnessed Azul and the Leech Twins float into midair while swirling around Glory as she harmonizes the bridge. Soon she flutters to Floyd where Glory grabs his hands before he embraces her and spins her around while hugging her. Soon after, Glory floats to Jade who offers her his hand and he twirls her around like a mummy princess. Finally, she flies to Azul who smiled warmly and opens his arms to her as she wraps his arms around him embracing each other while floating into midair while the audience is wowed with awe and mesmerized by the special effects.
"Omg this is so Magicamable! This will definitely go viral for sure!" Cater glees while holding his phone.
"Yeah! This by far the coolest one!" Epel said with a smile awed by her performance. Soon, the ghosts placed both Glory and the Octavinelle trio back to the ground where Glory take a few steps back before realized her body is disintegrating shocking the Azul and the Leech brothers.
"The moment when Deidre realized what she had done
Too late it was, for her, for them, the evil curse had won
The anger and the anguish overwhelmed her fragile soul
And caused a wicked tantrum that she never could control~"
She sang marvelously before Glory turns into dust heartbreaking the audience.
"Oh my! Woe is me! What a heartbreaking story of a mummy who yearns to have a friend yet meets a tragic fate! So tragic yet beautiful! 1000 points!" Rook dramatically cries.
"About how many points are you going to give!?" Her boyfriends shrieked.
"Give it up, potatoes. No matter how much he watched, he'll be biased with his opinions for sure." Vil informs.
"Non non. I'm just expressing how beautiful her live performance is. Just like how I appreciate beauty itself!" Rook expressed with a smile.
"I can't even tell if you're being honest or not..." Deuce mutters.
"Same here." Grim chimes in.
"No it's just him." Epel reassures them shaking his head a bit.
"Aaah she turned into dust! Waaaah my Lionfishie is gone!!" Floyd bawls.
"Now now, Floyd. Don't worry dear brother. Angelfish is backstage preparing for her next performance." Jade reassures.
"Well that was unexpected, but quite beautiful indeed." Azul admits smiling warmly at the stage.
"Now that the Octavinelle is down, which dorm will be next?" Kalim asks curiously.
"Hmm don't know, but we better find out and see." Jamil hums.
"Whatever the case is, I bet it's going to be an even thrilling performance." Lilia guessed with a grin. Meanwhile at the back of the lounge, Crowley is bawling his eyes out.
"AAAAAHHHHH!!! How sorrowful! The mummy turns into dust because of her curse! What a tragedy!" He whimpers.
"Oi Oi calm down headmaster! You're getting tears all over my mad scientist costume!" Divus chides annoyed with his tears.
"Though you have to admit. The part where she levitates and grabs Azul and the Leech brothers with her rags is pretty spot on." Vargas points out.
"I agree. That was an astounding performance." Trein agreed sternly. While the headmaster is bawling his eyes out, Sam gave Crowley a tissue.
"There, there Dire. No need to weep. The next performance might lift your spirits." He reassures with a big smile.
"And when he meant "lift your spirits", the next performance will make you...how should I say this? Bring out the "fun" side or should I say...the "wild" side to the party that will make the boys "howling" for her." Vivien implies with a smile.
"Hahah! Wait, what do you mean by that?" Crowley asks with a puzzled look.
"You'll see." She reassures.
"Huh!? How come now! Don't leave me off the sidelines! I need to know!" He pleaded.
"If I tell you, it'll be a buzzkill for all of them." She points out.
"Ugh. You're so hard to read sometimes..." He mutters and the lake goddess shrugs her shoulders.
"Why not? I just love surprises." She said with a coy smile making the headmaster sigh and shakes his head lightly.
"I can understand why you and Merlin are so close..." He stated.
Dealing with unruly students is bad enough but having to deal with Merlin and Vivien's ominous antics is way troubling...! Speaking of Merlin, I hope that man knows what he's doing over backstage!
Crowley thought as he and the others wait patiently for the next performance.
