Chapter 5: Creepy Haunting
"Look at it. It's gorgeous" Mason Wolf said as he admired the amulet the next morning.
He sees everyone was still angry at him.
"What? Oh, you're not still mad about last night, are you?" Wolf chuckles.
_______________________________
"Did everyone decided to give you the cold shoulder?" Pandora giggles.
"They wish, they were just upset that I got them, because I'm the least scariest person. Well, except Drago." Wolf says.
"Yeah right." Hubert grumbles.
_______________________________
"You went too far. Look what you did to me." Webs said.
Wolf looks closely on her hemocele a tiny white hair.
"You stole my youth!" Webs said.
"The most heinous of crimes." Shark said.
"Yeah, I know we're Bad Guys and all, but I thought even Bad Guys kept their promises." Piranha grunts.
"I'm not really mad. You actually got me real good. Respect, pal." Drago smiled at him.
"Come on! It was just a little bit of fun. Focus on the results. We stole from Reginald E. Scary." Wolf said.
"Oh, you're lucky it's some prime-time loot is all I'm saying." Snake says.
"At least we never have to go back to that creep's haunted un-funhouse." Shark said.
"You're still afraid? It was all fake. You make it too easy for me to scare you. Have some coffee. You'll feel better." Wolf said as he pours himself some coffee.
Suddenly wolf heard a strange sound, like the creepy piano from the mansion, he didn't noticed he was spilling the coffee.
"That's weird." Wolf said.
"Wolf!" Shark snapped him out of it.

The kids' laughter was heard from the background.
________________________________
"Sorry. Hey, you all hear the music from Scary's mansion, right?" Wolf asked.
"What? No. Although it was kind of an earworm.
How did it go again?" Webs hummed the tune.
"No, no, no. You're wrong. It was more like..." Piranha hummed it.
"Nuh-uh. It was more like..." Shark hummed.
_______________________________
"So all day Wolf said to hear the piano music although none of us did." Hubert says to the kids.
_______________________________
"As I was saying, we have the perfect pitch for our next heist. Shark?" Piranha says as they planned their next heist.
"What if we rob...Ba-da-da-da!" Lou Shark says to Mason.
"...the dentist!" Piranha says to them.
"Picks!" Hyena said.
"Drills!" Piranha said.
"Gold fillings!" Webs said.
"But mostly, those little water cups." Shark said.
_______________________________
"I don't think stealing from a dentist is considered a crime or a heist. It sounds more like stealing candy in a store." Drake crossover arms and smiled.
"Yes! Thank you, son." Drago said to his son.
"What? Stealing from a dentist is not illegal?" Hubert says.
"What exactly could they possibly have, are you trying to con the tooth fairy?" Nellie smiled.
"There's gold teeth and one of those prizes boxes you get for being good" shark added.
"It's nothing but cheap knick knacks, and junk from 5 dollar store. I highly doubt that stuff is valuable then the stuff you stole back in your day." Pepé Jr. said.
"Give us break, it was a slow day besides what good did a dentist ever did got anyone besides drilling braces in?" Miguel said.
"Uhh, health for your teeth?" Mojo said to his dad.
"Anyway where was I, oh right, Wolf was starting to get paranoid." Hubert said.
_______________________________
"Huh?" Wolf said as he was too distracted by the music.
"Can't get those anywhere else." Hyena said.
"Holy Grail of drinkware." Shark said.
_______________________________
"Pretty sure you can buy those at stores." Pandora says to them.
_______________________________
"You guys really aren't hearing that piano music?" Wolf was starting to lose it, plugging up his ears didn't help.
"Not hearing that?" Hyena asked.
"You're just trying to prank us again. Not falling for it, mister." Shark said.
"You caught me! Uh, now, tell me about this dentist heist again." Wolf said.
_______________________________
"Wolf was starting to go crazy." Miguel says.
"Yeah you should've seen his face, he looked nervous." Tara laughed.
"Like he was about to have a heart attack." Lou Shark said as he burst into laughter.
Then everyone laughed including the kids and Drago. But Wolf was annoyed.
"The way he spilled his coffee, priceless." Pepé snickered.
"Ha ha, really funny guys, but can we get back to story." Mason says.
_______________________________
"First step, rot out our teeth by eating a lot of candy." Miguel explains.
"I can't take this! Come on! Where is it? Where's it coming from?" Wind said.
Wolf was now paranoid, he looks around their stolen property to see where the noise was coming from.
"Where is what coming from? Buddy, you're losing it." Snake asked as he slithered up to him, he was concerned.
Wolf backs up to the statue with the amulet, almost breaking it but he caught it.
_______________________________
"Wolf was starting to get paranoid." Hubert says to the kids.
_______________________________
"There's no way. Uh-uh. No, no. There's an explanation for this. Sorry. Nope, nope, nope. Nope!" He suspects it's the amulet and that the curse was real.
"You don't hear that?" Wolf asked.
"You okay, Wolf?" Piranha asked as they all nodded.
"Seems like you could use some, uh, space." Snake said as they exited the room.
"I'm gonna go on a fly." Drago said as he flew out the window.
_______________________________
"Wolf was starting to go crazy, oh boy you should've seen him." Hubert laughed.
"Alright Snake, they gets it now." Mason was annoyed.
"He could barely sleep." Tara says.
_______________________________
Later that same night, as it was raining, Wolf slept on the couch hoping to sleep it off. He started dreaming about returning back to Reginald E. Scary's mansion. He looks at the portrait of Reginald E. Scary to see he was missing.
"Hello? Anybody here? Hey, listen, I'm sorry I stole the amulet." Wolf said.
Then as he entered Scary's crypt, he hears a sound, a voice.
"I warned you, but you still stole from me. Now I steal from you."
It turned out to be him turning into Reginald E. Scary. Wolf woke up screaming and next thing he knew Shark looked worried.
"It's horrible!" Shark said.
"What is it? You know I need my looty sleep." Webs rubbed her eyes.
"Same here. My hair is a mess." Hyena said showing his frizzy hair.
"Piranha, he's gone! I heard a struggle, and when I went to check on him, I found this!" Shark hands him a feather that belongs to Reginald E. Scary.
"Reginald E. Scary?" Wolf gasped.
_______________________________
"So he is real?" Pandora asked.
"Well not precisely Pandora." Mason Wolf runs his neck. "It was more like...a ghost."
"But I don't you said ghosts weren't real and that Reginald E. Scary didn't exist." Pandora said.
"Well yes but-" Wolf says trying to explain.
_______________________________
"The stories were true!" Hubert says as he voice started to change and sound like Reginald E. Scary, "I warned you!"
"What did you say?" Wolf started to get scared.
"I warned you. This is like what happened with The Westside Wallabies!" Hubert says to him.
"Oh, poor Piranha! We have to go back for him." Shark says.
_______________________________
"So kids, we decided to head back to old Reginald E. Scary mansion." Mason says.
"Was Pepé okay?" Willow asked.
"Oh you'll see." Drago said with a grin.
