Some monsters were at the counter trying to get their money back. "Where is my bill?"

"Over here. I'm next."

"I'm checking out. Take my key! Take my key!"

"What is this minibar charge?" Wayne asked his wife, and she said, "Honey, the kids threw the minibar out the window."

"And that's our fault?"

"Well..."

Murray came in with two big boxes and said, "Excuse me! Pardon, yeah. Excuse me, I've got a couple of people to express mail."

Dracula came flying in and hovered above the reception desk. "Friends, please, stop."

"It's too late, rat-bat!" Murray said angrily.

Drac turned himself back to normal and said, "Please, I'm begging you. I need you to help me find Johnny and Y/N."

"The humans? They could've killed us!" Wayne said.

"He touched my guitar!" Murray said.

"He put his hand in my mouth to see if it would disappear, and not to mention Y/N touched my drum set," Griffin said.

He let me eat his scooter!" the old lady gremlin said. The crowd gasps. "I know I lied. I was wrong. But you have to believe this: Johnny and Y/N are not bad people. The truth is, I don't even know if humans are bad anymore because of what I heard from Y/N about how their parents got killed by monsters and humans." He leaned down to the box Frank was in. "Frank, come on, buddy. You understand." Eunice was in the box next to Frank and said, "He's not talking to you. First, you tell us humans are bad, now they're good. What else? Up is down, cold is hot, gremlins don't smell."

Frank's head pops out of the box with his hand holding his head, and he says, "Hey! I really liked Johnny, cousin or no, and Y/N as well. He told fun stories, while Y/N was sweet and kind.

"I think they zinged."

"They zinged?" Wanda and Wayne ask at the same time.

"But I got in the way. You only zing once in your life," Frank said.

Eunice came out of the box holding her head with her hand. "Hey, now you're short-circuiting."

I don't care!" he kept short-circuiting.

Well, I actually have zinged again... With Y/N. I don't know how it's possible. Drac looked at everyone with a sad face.

Well, what are we doing? Let's get Johnny and Y/N," Griffin said as Drac gave a smile. Everyone was cheering them on. "Come on!" "Yeah, let's do it!" "Come on!" "Yeah!"

Drac, Griffin, Frank, Murray, and Wayne ran outside to the car and drove off at the speed of light. When they got out of a tunnel that opened up, Griffin asked, "Okay, okay, where am I going?"

"The human world, before Johnny and Y/N are gone forever," Drac said dramatically.

"But what about the sun?" Murray asked.

"I don't know. I'll just have to roll," Drac said.

"He just rolls. Rollability," Wayne said.

"So we follow their boot prints. When they run out, that's where you come in, Wayne."

"Me?" Wayne questioned.

There!" The car stopped driving, and Drac walked up to the shirt and said, "Yes, I knew something would fall out of that backpack." He smelled the shirt, but that was a bad idea. "Yowch! That stinks!"

Wayne walks up to Drac, and Drac says, "Work your magic." Holding out the shirt to Wayne, he says, "Wait, you want me to track the smell? No. My sniffing and tracking days are way behind me. Do you know how many diapers I've changed? How many number twos have destroyed this thing? But..." Wayne puts his fingers in his mouth and whistles, which is inaudible to them, and his wolf pups come running in and make a mess everywhere.

"Hey! Take it easy! Watch it! Sit. Smell." One of his pups comes up to him and sniffs his butt. "I said smell. Not me, the shirt! The shirt!"

"Do any of your kids still respect you?"

"Mm, give me a second. Oh, yeah. Winnie! Front and center!" The pups stop fighting and let Winnie through. She then goes up to the shirt and takes a long sniff from it. "They got into a car. An '86 Fiat." She sniffs the shirt again. "It needs a little transmission work, but otherwise, it's okay." She takes another sniff. "It drove through town to the airport. Flight 497. 8:00 a.m. departure. That's in 15 minutes. Seat 23A and 24A. He ordered the vegetarian meal, and (Y/N) got a (Y/F/D)."

Okay, thank you, cutie. Now, all of you, go back to your mother!" Drac said to the wolf pups, and they ran back to their mom.

Everyone got back into the car and sped off again. When they came out of the woods, they came to a little opening. Drac looked really worried because of the sun. That's when Drac spotted a sheep and said, "Sheep!" Griffin did a 90-degree turn, and they went down the mountain on another road. Murray almost fell out of the car but was pulled back in by Frank. Griffin said, "High five! Don't leave me hanging."

Then Drac saw lots of sheep and yelled, "Lots of sheep!"

"I've got this one," Wayne said. Wayne came out of the car and ate all of the sheep. The four in the car looked on speechless. When he came back into the car, he burped some wool up. They all looked at him in disappointment. "What? Now there are no sheep in the road. Let's go."

"That was pretty sick, man."

"You eat lamb chops; it's the same thing."

"We don't have time for this. Come on, let's move it!"

Griffin was still driving when he saw a human and said, "Look, a human."

"Welcome to Transylvania!" and the human howled.

"That was trippy," Frank said.

They came to a little village when they saw a canvas with the words "Welcome to the Monster Festival."

"Monster Festival? What's a Monster Festival?" Wayne asked.

"Did they know we were coming?" Murray said.

They got into the village and saw all the humans dressed up as monsters.

"They like us? Really?" Frank questioned, surprised.

Drac rolled down the window of the car and asked a Dracula impersonator, "Excuse me? Do you know the best way to the airport?"

"Yes, fellow Dracula. There's only one way. Bleh, bleh-bleh."

"But it's all blocked. We'll never make it in time. You should have left an hour earlier. Bleh, bleh-bleh." The guy walked away, and Drac said, "I do not say 'Bleh, bleh-bleh.'"

"All right, let's just run through it on foot." Drac got out of the car, and they all went on foot. Drac had his cape on his head, but it didn't help much with protecting him against the sunlight. When Frank noticed that Drac was squinting, he found a big sun hat and put it on Drac's head. "Drac, this'll protect you."

"Bleh, bleh-bleh," Drac said in an annoyed tone.

"Imagine if that guy knew he was talking to the real Drac. He'd run for the hills!" Frank said.

Murray thought on that for a second and walked in front of them while saying, "Hold it now. Hold it now. That sounds spot on. But the only way they'd know the real us is if we show the real us."

"This could work," Drac said.

"You mean, like, scare them? We haven't scared people in centuries. I don't even think I have it in me anymore." Frank tried to get a roar out but came up with nothing. "I've got nothing. I really have nothing."

"Let's just move this along." Griffin got a matchbox and got a match out of it, lit it, and held it in front of Frank's face. Frank screamed and started to freak out over the little fire. He got into some people's faces and started roaring at them. When he was done, he started to say, "Fire! Fire! Fire!" He turned around and climbed this giant balloon that looked like him and stood on its shoulder. He roared so loud that the people winced at how loud he was roaring. When he was done, the crowd cheered.

"I'm trying to scare you! The real Frankenstein!" he said, gesturing at himself.

"We know! We love you!" someone said.

"Can you sign my torch?" a girl asked excitedly.

"Listen, before anything else, down there's the real Dracula!" Frank gestured to his friend.

Prove it," a guy said, holding a mug and looking at Drac. Drac looked him in the eyes and used his power to smash the mug the guy was holding into his face, breaking it. When Drac was done, the guy said, "All right. Continue."

Dracula and his daughter are in love, and he's got to get to the airport! He can't get through this crowd!" he gestured to the crowd below when someone in a Frankenstein mask began asking a question. "Why doesn't he fly?"

Then someone in a Dracula mask answered his question. "The sun, you idiot. He's a vampire."

That's right. Thank you, Monster Nerd. So, people, if you are truly our friends, clear a path for the man!

The guy in the Dracula costume was back and said, "Okay. All Draculas, line up. Bleh, bleh-bleh." Everyone cleared a path for all the Draculas to line up, then he said, "Everyone else, lift the capes. Protect our friend. Bleh, bleh-bleh." Everyone lifted the capes and formed a shadow so that Drac could protect himself from the sun. Frank was beside his friend again and said, "It's all for you, buddy. Go ahead." Drac looked at him and then again at the crowd and smiled. "Good luck! Go get 'em!" Dracula took off at lightning speed and ran under the capes while everyone said, "Go, Drac, go! Go get 'em!" and "We love you, Dracula!"

Meanwhile, with Johnny and Y/N, Johnny and I were sitting on the plane. I was sitting by the window, listening to music. I started to think about how much I was going to miss the hotel and especially Dracula.

Drac was in his bat form beside the plane window and started to try to get Y/N's attention. "Y/N. Y/N, can you hear me?" An Edward Cullen knock-off was playing on the little TVs in the chairs and said, "Tell me, do you dream of being a vampire?" Dracula was disappointed to see this. This is how we're represented? Unbelievable. Y/N? Y/N? Can you hear me? I was still listening to my music when I saw a bat out of the corner of my eye. Whoa! A bat! I backed away in surprise for a second and bumped into Johnny, catching his attention. "Wait, it's talking," he said.

I thought to myself, "Bats don't talk or go out in the daylight." So Johnny took out his earbuds and came closer, hanging over my shoulder. I put my headphones around my neck and said, "Dracula? Is that you?"

Dracula was talking to us, but we couldn't catch what he was saying. "We can't understand you," Johnny said.

Dracula spoke again. "What? My hand's in a tan shoe?"

Johnny and I still couldn't make out what he was saying, so we said at the same time, "What?" Johnny added, "Japan's eating lamb stew? Hey, do you know you're smoking?"

Johnny was right; he was smoking, and it's really bad. Drac gave us a determined look and tried hard to fly to the front of the plane. Johnny and I got up quickly and said to the other passengers as we tried to follow Drac, "Oh. Pardon us. Sorry, excuse us." Johnny fell to the ground and said, "Whoa! Excuse me." We got to another window and still saw Drac trying to get to the front of the plane. Drac finally got in front of the plane, stopped in front of it, and it flew straight into him. He stuck to the window of the plane, and the pilots jumped a bit. "What the heck?" one of them said while the other guy said, "How'd a bat get up this high?"

The other guy started speaking into his headset. "Folks, I'm going to turn on the seat belt sign. Just a precaution while we..." Drac saw this and used his power on the pilot. You could hear Dracula with the pilot's voice. "While we hear a special announcement for my dear friend Jonathan and my dearly loved Y/N." As Drac said this, I got a little flustered while Johnny and I listened. Johnny questioningly said, "Dracula?"

My dear boy, I have made a terrible mistake. I was trying to keep my baby to myself because I knew I would always protect her. But I realize now that children need to discover things for themselves. They will stumble and fall, laugh and cry, but such is life. The truth is, you and Mavis are meant to be. You Zinged. If she must give her trust to someone else, I am thankful that it is you, Jonathan. My dear, Y/N, I am very sorry for how I have treated you, and I am very sorry for that, but the thing is, we zinged as well. I just didn't want to admit it at the time because I didn't want to get criticized for it, but I now realize that it does not matter anymore. I care for you with all my heart. You are my zing, Y/N. I hope you two can hear me and forgive me.

A woman started screaming and backing away into other people. Johnny and I turned around to the window, and Drac was at the little window looking at Johnny with a big smile. Johnny put his thumb up and gave a smile. Drac then looked at me, and I nodded my head yes and also smiled at him. Drac nodded and gave a smile again and said, still with the pilot's voice in the intercoms, "Okay, folks, we're going to make a quick turnaround to refuel, and then we'll be back on our way."

People started whining when Drac said, "Quit your whining! I'm burning up out here!"

The plane turned around, and we went on our way back. Mavis was sitting on the floor in front of a chair, her head covered by her arms as she rested her elbows on her knees. Dracula came flying through the window and crashed into her room, filling it with smoke. Mavis got off the floor, coughing slightly, and said, "Dad?" She waved the smoke away and saw her father covered in sunburns, some of his clothing burned as well.

Drac groaned and said, "I'm fine. I'm just a little sunburnt," he said softly as the smoke finally cleared. I was hiding behind Drac while Johnny hid on a giant backpack. Drac walked forward, and I followed behind him. "Honey, I always thought the worst thing ever would be seeing you go. But the worst is seeing you unhappy," he said while holding her hands. "Mavis, I want you to live your life."

Mavis sighed and let go of his hands, saying, "I don't know how I'm supposed to do that."

Dracula has fully healed again and says, "You know, Mommy already gave you her birthday present. Can I now give you mine?" He walks backward so I won't be discovered, and he shows Mavis a black and pink backpack with the hotel's logo on it. Mavis is confused and says, "What do I need this for?"

"Oh, it comes with accessories." He turns the backpack around and reveals a smiling Jonathan, and I walk from behind Dracula, revealing me as well.

Mavis is shocked. "You guys?" she says as she looks at us in shock.

"Hi," I said softly as Johnny said lovingly, "You."

"Why are you two back?" Dracula lets go of Johnny, and he walks to Mavis, saying, "'Cause, you're my zing, Mavis. And I'm your friend," I said while I'm still beside Dracula.

Mavis is surprised by that and says, "I'm your zing? And I'm your friend? But... you guys told me you hate monsters."

"Well, mostly Johnny said it, but that doesn't matter. Heck, I'm half monster myself," I say.

"Yeah, and well, we were afraid your dad was going to suck all the blood out of our bodies if I didn't say that," Johnny said.

Drac came behind Johnny's backpack and laughs nervously and says. I wouldn't have! I- No, he's right, I would've done that... and walks over to Mavis.

Dad!

I was wrong, Devil-chops. Drac gave Mavis the Hawaii card to her that she found and took it and looked at it and says. Do you really mean it, Dad? she looked at her dad and he puts a strand of her hair behind her ear and says. Go make your own paradise. they smile at each other Drac goes backward and Johnny came up to Mavis and asked. Can we try that kiss over again?

Mavis giggled and said. I think we can. Mavis and Jonathan lean to kiss but are interrupted by Dracula snarling with his monster face and the two blankly stare at him and he is looking embarrassed and says Sorry! I- I just... I gotta get used to that. Now go. Do... do your thing. he hastily leaves the room with me as Mavis and Jonathan make their best kiss. we were in the hallway walking and I asked So what did change your mind about humans?

Well, one of the things is what I heard about your Story of your parents and I'm sorry that I listened in on your conversation it was not my intention to invade your privacy.

Well, I'm not happy that you did, but I was going to tell you eventually anyway, so I'm glad you did listen in because now I don't have to explain it again. But what are the other things that changed your mind?

Well, I realized you and Johnny are harmless to the monsters in the hotel, and the Monster Festival really opened my eyes.

I'm glad we could change your mind, I said, looking at him.

I thought I would never zing again until I met you, Y/N. I still don't know why, but I'm glad it was you, he said, and put his arms around my waist. I got a little flustered. "Drac, I'm crazily scared right now."

He leaned in close to me and said, "Maybe that's a good thing." He leaned in further and captured my lips. The kiss was very sweet, and I wrapped my arms around his neck and closed my eyes. We pulled away again as he said, "I love you, Y/N."

"I love you too, Drac."

We made a new birthday party for Mavis at the pool. We had fireflies that spelled out "HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAVIS" with two cakes on each side of the letters. Mavis and Johnny kissed each other lovingly.

Wayne, Murray, Griffin, and Frank were on stage and started playing pop music. Then Johnny slid onto the stage and began singing, "I thought I found a love, but she was just a fling. And then I met a girl and felt a different thing. It's like you're hit in the ring, like you're pulled by a string." ♪ Can't breathe like you're choking on a chicken wing ♪
It was a thing called a Zing, and I wanted to sing ♪
And listen to ballads of the man named Sting ♪

Mavis was now on stage as well, and Johnny started to sing to her, "Lady looks in your eyes and it's suddenly spring, ♪Like when Nala looked at Simba in The Lion King."

Wayne lay on the DJ booth while Frank gave him a belly rub. Wayne moved his back paw, and it moved the LP.

Murray started singing while Mavis came flying in as a bat, "Zinging in the air, and I don't have a care. ♪I'm winging from the zing that we shared."

Mavis turned herself back and started singing as well. "Singing in the rain, now I'm feeling no pain. ♪ It's a real time for celebrating, ♪ 'cause you're my zing."

Drac came flying in on a table and stopped in front of Johnny and Mavis. I made my way to the podium as well and stood beside Mavis.

"Drac, you ready to throw down?" Johnny said.

"No, no, I just came closer to hear you better."

"Come on, just give it a try," I said.

"All right, maybe just a little." Drac got the mic from Johnny and started rapping, "So listen, all you Zingers from here to Beijing, you better crash the box spring, get ready to cling!"

Mavis, Johnny, and I were really surprised by it, but we smiled and carried on with the song. "'Cause if love was money, you'd be yelling cha-ching, next to a Zing, Cupid's arrow's a little bee sting." Johnny joined in on that part. "It was a Zing and a zang and a zingidy-dee, and there are only two ladies in the Zing for me. 'Cause when you're dinged by the Zing, you better know one thing, the only bling you gonna sling is a wedding ring." Johnny joined in on that part as well.

We all gave a pose, but Drac froze us and then unfroze us, and we almost tripped. Mavis, Murray, and I continued singing, "Zinging in the air," but Drac froze us again. This time, he didn't freeze me, and he started singing himself. Now I don't have a care. He came over to me, sang to me, placed a hand on my cheek, and sang further. I'm winging from the Zing that we shared, zinging in the rain. Now I'm feeling no pain. He stopped caressing my cheek and unfroze the rest, and we started to sing again. It's a real time for celebrating because you're my Zing.

We all went forward, and tables started to come to the podium. We walked on it while Johnny and Drac were rapping. Feel the Zing, y'all. Ba-da-bing, y'all. Gonna knock you right out of that ring, y'all. Better bring, y'all. Happening, y'all. Pay attention to the undead king, y'all.

We went into the air, and Mavis and Johnny had a table to stand on, as did Frank, Eunice, Wayne, Wanda, Drac, Murray, and Griffin. They stood alone on a table as we went flying over the crowd. Fireworks went off into the sky, high above. If I had to say, this was a very good ending.
