"Hauntlywood, get ready to meet Monster High!" Clawdius shouts as he and the rest finally arrived fallow by Rae's laugh beside him. Draco growl beside him also feeling his energy while looking around the new environment.
"Come on! Let's find that star that leads to the Queen of the silver scream!" Draculaura said with a smile holding her parasol from the sunlight.
"Aaaaand action!" Hauntly said.
____[Skipping song part]
Rae eyes twinkle when they arrived at the Hauntlywood studio, stopping as Clawdius talks to the guard.
"Hello. We're looking for Sebastian Von Vamp." Clawdius said and the guard didn't look up really interested in his news papers.
"Name." Guard said making the group look at him. "We just told you. Sebastian Von-." Hoodude gets cut off by the guard.
"No, ya big pin cushion, your name." Guard said annoyed finally glancing at them.
"Oh." Hoodude said with a small nervous laugh and opens his hands. "Hoodude Voodoo."
The guard looks at his clipboard and shakes his head.
"Nope, not on the list. Thanks for stopping by. Buh-bye." Guard gives them a wave and going back to his reading, Cleo let's out a small laugh and pushed Hoodude a little. "I got this." Cleo said.
"Name." Guard said.
"No! You give me your name because I am Cleo de Nile! That's de Nile as in the de Niles." Cleo let's out her diva side glaring at the shocking guard. "And one call to my father and I'll have you transferred to the night shift in Fright-beria for the next 100 years if you don't open that gate this instant!"
"Uh, um... Yes, ma'am, I mean...Miss de Nile! Right away! Here you go." He said opening the gates for them and Rae high fives her. "Amazing!" Rae said and both girls laugh.
"Okay, ghouls, it's a big lot. Let's try to find Sebastian fast before-." Clawdio said as he looks around as workers and actors walk around. "Anybody realizes we don't belong here." Sour said.
"Exactly." Clawdio said.
______
"O-M-Ghoul! Is that?" Clawdio suddenly said stopping on his tracks making everyone do the same. "Yes! The famous die-rector, Scareantino!" Sour said.
Rae looks ahead of them to see a monster walking towards them while twitching on his way with a key behind his back. That's when a pink hair monster bumps into him accidentally taking the key off and the pink monster had dropped his make up kit.
"Mr. Scareantino! I wasn't looking." He said and picks himself up, picking up the key on the ground. Mr. Scareantino had talked for a bit until he didn't which the guy had wind him up.
"Opening shot! Zombies to the left! Zombies to the right! Cue the music!" Mr. Scareantino said loudly walking away. "Enter the hero! But who? Hmm. Gotta dig up some old star and resurrect their career!"
He takes out a huge notebooks some papers falling. "Note to self, pack a shovel. Ninjas! Why didn't I think of that? Put it in the movie!" He said pointing to the a worker who jumps from his chair.
Rae picks up a nail polish and hair brush from the pink guy's kit who was mumbling to himself about being late.
"Here you go." Rae said and he smiles grabbing the stuff. "Thank you." He said and smiles at the group helping him out.
"I'm Viper, I owe you guys, big time!" Viper said making a run for it waving goodbye. Rae froze as she saw a guy from the shadows looking right at her, he opens his mouth saying something.
"Remember." Rae whispers and felt a pulse go through her body. "Rae? Are you okay?" Rae felt a warm hand on her shoulder making her snap out of it.
"Yeah, I just thought I saw something." She said looking at Clawdius worried look, she looks back where the guy was only to feel spooked when he wasn't there anymore.
"Let's keep going, I'm sure we're getting close." Draculaura said and they continue their search.
Rae and the others gasp as Hoodude gets hit by a typewriter and a bucket lands on his head.
"Okay, I'm good! I'm good!" He said.
"Oops, missed! Hey, could you throw that in with the other typewriters? In creative frustration?" A monster asked and Hoodude nods throwing it in a pile of other typewriters.
"Sorry about that. Just going through a little writer's block." She said coming out and tap her head, Clawdio gasps. "It can't be! That's Scary Stone, the most amazing scream-writer in Hauntlywood!" He said to Draculaura and Rae.
"Ms. Stone, if you have writer's block, our friend Clawdio is a writer." Draculaura said with a smile and Rae nods cutting Clawdio from stopping them. "He can totally help, I've seen him type so fast like there's no tomorrow." Rae said.
"This new werewolf movie? It is chewing me up." Ms. Stone said and Robecca holds the typewriter for Clawdio who takes a look at it and starts to write. Once he was done, Rae watched Ms. Stone look at his work while Clawdio nervously watched.
"You've changed the "Wwwwwwooooa!" to "Aoooooowwww!" So authentic, so raw, so wolfy!" Ms. Stone said with a smile. "It's brilliant!" She said looking at a happy Clawdio who smiles.
"You have got to help me with the rest of the script!" She said and Clawdio walks up to her.
"Wow! It's always been my scream to be a writer in Hauntlywood." He said and Rae smiles. "Good luck, Clawdio!" Rae said with a wave.
"Goodbye you guys, hope to see a wedding invitation soon." Clawdio said with a wink to his brother and Rae who blushed. "Oh! And good luck with finding-." He was cut off by Ms. Stone pulling him in the house.
"Bye bye!" Everyone said walking away.
_____
"Oh, come on, I can't make this without underwater footage!" A director said and Rae smiles shaking Hauntly. "This is your chance! Show them what you have." She said as Clawdius calls the director.
"Excuse me, I know someone who can help." Clawdius said. "They're right, This is your scream!" Draculaura said to Hauntly.
"Yup! There's nobody better if you're talking about a camera and a swamp! Why I can rack a focus while changing lenses on a backtracked Steadicam." Hauntly said making Draculaura ask him what that meant.
"All right, I'll try you out." The director said with a shrug ignoring how a gargoyle slams his camera on the ground walking away. "Looks like his okay on his own, let's go." Rae said making everyone nod leaving the area.
___
"This is it! He's right there." Rae said with a smile seeing Sebastian making his way to his trailer. "We just need to go in that trailer." Clawdius said.
"Oh! That'll be easy, except for those two huge bodyguards." Cleo said pointing to the bodyguards.
"Looks like you guys need a hand." Viper said with a smirk looking at the group. "You work on this boovie?" Clawdius asked and Viper nods.
"Thanks to you, I didn't get fired." Viper said and Rae looks at him. "You think you can help us go in? We need to talk to him." She said and Viper chuckles.
"Leave it to me." He said and walks in front of them and the group follow him. "Viper, plus makeup crew."
"How come so many of you?" A bodyguard asked looking at Rae and the others. "We have to make Mister Sebastian very, very, very, very, very, good for his next scene!" Viper said with a glare and his snakes hiss at the bodyguard making him uncomfortable.
"Go ahead." The bodyguard said letting them go through. "This place is huge." Rae said looking at the place and saw a table with glass full of blood on them.
"He's not here." Viper said with a frown and Rae takes a seat on the couch. "That's nice." Rae said her legs finally able to rest.
"Well, then I guess we wait. A trailer this classy shouldn't be wasted." Cleo said taking a golden cup in her hand and takes a seat with Rae.
"No! I can't rest until we find him." Draculaura said with a frown and Rae gasps seeing a familiar heart in Sebastian's hand. "Do I know you?" He asked with a raised eyebrow.
"The Vampire's Heart!" Clawdius said. "It's here!" Cleo said standing up to take a look closer to the heart.
"Sorry, you're looking at a fake, this is Hauntlywood." Sebastian said adjusting his shirt. "It's only a prop." He puts the fake heart on the table.
"We're very sorry for intruding like this, but-." Draculaura gets cut off by the actor. "Well, I can always sign an autograph for a fan." Sebastian said about to sign.
"Uh, sorry, not actually a fan. In fact, I think that your stereotypical portrayal-." Rae cuts her off by shaking her shoulder. "What she means is that we're not here for that." Rae said only gasp, Sebastian had speed up to her holding her close.
She froze feeling his face near her neck, Clawdius growls in anger.
"Back down wolf, I'm not going to eat her." Sebastian said looking at Clawdius his eyes glowing red. "That blood." He whispers and looks at her a smile forming.
"Rae Addams, you grown so much." He said shocking Rae and the others.
"You know me/you know her?" Both Rae and the group said, Sebastian nods looking at Rae in the eyes. "It's time to remember princess." Sebastian said and Rae closed her eyes feeling her head pounding.
"Excuse me, what?!" Is the last thing she heard from Clawdius.
___Flashback [months later after the accident]
A 13 year old Rae cleans a table and closing the dining restaurant, it was one of her punishment from her dad after she got caught vandalizing the restaurant by the owner. To make up for it she had to work for a couple of months and pay for the repairs on her own, Rae frowns hearing the bell ring meaning someone came in.
"Sorry but we're close." Rae said turning around and looked worried seeing a boy older than her his clothes wet and hair. "Are you okay? I didn't know the rain was coming hard." She said whispering the last part and looks outside seeing the rain coming hard.
Rae takes out a blanket from under the counter and puts it on him, she felt bad for him so she asks him what he wanted to drink.
"Can I get you anything to drink?" She asked.
"A coffee, no sugar and no cream." He mumbles, Rae felt like she knew him or felt a familiar vibe. She went to the back and got the coffee ready, once she was done she brought a cup for him.
"Here you go, if you need anything else I'll be right over there." Rae said pointing to a corner where her stuff was and a journal of her songs.
"You sing?" The guy asked and gesture to her music journal. Rae was confused in how he can see from that far. "Yeah, why?" She asked and pours more coffee seeing it empty.
"Can.. can you sing one, please?" He asked and Rae could see him look broken. Again she felt herself nodding at him with a small smile.
"Happy or sad?" Rae asked as she takes her journal in her hands searching for a song. The guy takes his time to think and he looks at her his voice sounding small. "Sad." He said.
"Okay, just a heads up it will break your heart." She said and felt a sadness in her seeing him shake his head a tear falling. "Already broken." He said.
Rae nods and starts a song that she remembered singing the same song on her mother's funeral.
___
"So, what brings you here?" Rae said as she cleaned the dirty dishes one she finished singing and the guy done with his coffee.
"Just buried my sister." He said and Rae stops. "Oh, my condolence." She whispers and he shrugs.
"How did she?" Rae asked.
"Killed by someone, the doctors tried to do their best but it wasn't enough." He said looking down at his hands. "Her last wish was to save someone's life with her blood, and I did that. The doctor told me that my sister's blood saved a human girl who lost a lot of blood from an accident, sadly her mother died on impact."
Rae froze on her washing. "Wait, what was her name?" She asked.
The guy looks up with a small smile. "Elissabat." He said and she gasps.
"Hello, I'm Elijabat but you can call me Sebastian." He said his hand out and Rae shakes his hand. "And you're a-." Rae gets cut off by him chuckling.
"Vampire." Sebastian said with a nod, he looks at the clock behind her and sighs. He takes out a couple of dollars putting them on the counter. "Next time, let's hang out when you're not so busy." He said with a smile.
___
True to his word, they spend all the time together and talking about their worlds. Human and monster side, showing each other the good and bad sides of living their world but sometimes it was hard for Sebastian to come visit her for being a super star.
All of it was perfect, Sebastian felt at peace with being with Rae and Rae didn't feel alone being happy with Sebastian change the death of her mother didn't hurt anymore either. Until one day a near dead had happened to Rae who was driving with Sebastian both laughing, Sebastian's eyes widen seeing a hunter in the middle of the road driving the car directly at them.
"What's going on?" Rae asked seeing a car heading towards them with a fast speed. Sebastian clench his teeth in anger when another car hits them from the side flipping the car, he heard Rae's screams and he snaps the seatbelt off of her pulling her to his chest. Once he saw his chance, he kicked the door open jumping out of the car in time as it tumbles down a hill.
"Not again." Rae said with tears closing her eyes, Sebastian glares at the hunters walking towards them. "Cover your ears." Sebastian said and she did as she was told.
Rae could hear screams from the unknown people but she ignores it, her mind still on the flashback in the car accident. She relaxed when Sebastian comes back picking her up bride style and wind picking up.
She opens her eyes noticing that they went back to her home, Rae looks up to see Sebastian's mouth cover in blood along with his shirt.
"Are you okay?" He asked and Rae nods.
"Good...." Sebastian said and looks down for a moment. "Look at me." He said and Rae looks at him noticing how his eyes glowed red.
"Rae Addams, you will forget everything about me and our time spend together. Be happy and outgoing, the last thing you were doing was hanging by the mall for a new journal but came back home feeling a bit sick." Sebastian orders and Rae's eyes glowed red.
"I was hanging out at the mall for a new journal but I felt sick, so I came back home." Rae said her voice sounding robotic.
Rae groans shaking her head and looks around confused.
"What am I doing here?" She asked and snaps her fingers. "That's right, feeling sick." She mumbled making her way inside.
Sebastian frowns watching from far away and sighs. "Goodbye, friend."
_____End flashback
"That's right. I am...-."
"Elijabat!" Rae shouts from the small couch where she was put after getting her memory's unlocked. "You stupid idiot!" She said and Sebastian flinch expecting a hit in the face but was surprised that Rae hugged him instead.
"You could have told me the reason you went away and not lose my memory." Rae said looking at him tearfully, he frowns holding her by the shoulder. "But you knew so much about me and the heart, I didn't want to risk of you getting interrogated by the hunters after me." Sebastian said and holds his hand out to Robecca.
"Robecca, hold my hand." He said and Robecca holds his hand, she looks down with a surprise look as it glows and she opens it. "I gave the Vampire's Heart to your father, Hexiciah Steam, to keep safe."
"So he put it in the safest place of all. It led you ghouls to me." Sebastian said. "Hello!! You haven't explained to us of how you know Rae and what you did to her a couple of minutes ago in the trailer." Clawdius said looking at the vampire king.
"I finally figure out why my blood appeals to the vampires." Rae said holding Clawdius hands. "Turns out when I had my accident and losing so much blood, Elijabat's sister had giving me her blood to save me as her last dying wish." She said and Draculaura cried.
"My best friend." She said and holds Rae in a hug.
"And I went to meet the girl in person, wanting to see what kind of person she was. From there we became friends, actually we dated a couple of days after we broke it up feeling that it wasn't right." Sebastian said smirking seeing the look on Clawdius face, Rae kicked him. "That wasn't how I remembered, it was a kiss and it felt wrong so we never spoke of it. Anyway, some hunters came after Sebastian who had forgotten to wear his disguise getting easy to track him and it lead to me being almost killed." Rae said.
"Which is why I decided to make her forget about me and everything she knew about my past along with the heart." Sebastian said.
"I didn't want her life to be at risk because she was with me and let her live a normal life.. a bit normal I suppose." He said with a shrug and loos at the main problem with a glare. "Lord Stoker, for your crimes against the vampire crown, you are banished from ever holding official office."
"Boys, show him the street." Sebastian said and Rae comes behind him laughing at Stoker. "Bye bye!" She said with a smile and Stoker screams struggling to get away from the bodyguards.
"Tonight is my new boovie premiere, it will also be my coronation." Sebastian said and looks at Rae. "And I'll be very happy if you and your friends watch." He said.
Rae smiles with a nod looking at Clawdius who smiles.
"I don't see why not, I'm sure the others will be fine staying behind." He said with a chuckle only to frown his icoffin ringing. "Never mind."
_____
"Nice design, Clawdius." Sebastian said as he stood in front of the couple talking about Rae's outfit. "Thanks." Clawdius said with a smile.
"Have you thought of going further with fashion design? Like showing it off in a internet." Sebastian said and Clawdius frowns.
"Uh.. I think I'm not ready to expand that ideas but maybe one day I will." Clawdius said and Sebastian nods stepping out of the limo once they arrived to their destination.
"You both head inside, I'll meet you there." Sebastian said to the couple and they nodded.
"How crazy it is that I'll be immortal because if the blood inside me." Rae said and Clawdius smiles kissing her head. "And I'm happy to know that you will be able to stay with all of us." He said.
___
"Sebastian, in recognition of your dead-ication to acting, the members of the Boovie Academy are proud to present you with the Silver Claw!"
Sebastian makes his way to the stage while Rae and her friends clap for him.
"Thank you." Sebastian said. "You know, I have made boovies about the Vampire Court, but I have never before revealed that I actually grew up there. I would like to dead-icate this award to the person who made this evening possible and reunited me with my friend."
"Draculaura." He said.
"She who taught me that you need to think beyond yourself, in order to really help others. At this turning point in Vampire history, my duty calls to me and I am here to help monsters everywhere!" Sebastian declares with a smile and Rae shakes Clawdius.
"What's going on with Draculaura? Her eyes." Rae said and Draculaura's eyes got cover in pink smoke. "I can mind control now, the last thing if being a complete vampire." Draculaura said and Rae raised her hand up.
"Try it on me! I volunteer." She said making Draculaura frown. "Are you sure? After all-." Draculaura said but Rae cuts her off with a giggle.
"I trust you that's why I'm fine with it." Rae said and Draculaura looks into Rae's eyes glowing. "Kiss Clawdius on the cheek."
Rae did as she was told kissing Clawdius on the cheek, she snaps out of it when she was done with the request.
"Finding Elijabat and saving the vampires was your big thing, well along with reuniting him with his best friend." Robecca said as they watch Rae and Sebastian hug.
"Hey, what are we waiting for? The boovie is about to start, with my best friend royal actress, Sebastian Von Vamp." Rae said with a smile grabbing Clawdius hand as they walk in to watch the movie.
___
"So, what are you going to do next?" Rae asked Sebastian as they take their seats. "I'm going to do a movie about a human and vampire, obviously is not going to be about that ridiculous twilight movie." Sebastian said with a roll of his eyes making Rae laugh.
"About us." He said and she smiles.
"Sounds perfect." Rae said and Sebastian smiles watching her and her boyfriend kiss each other cheek. "And maybe about a human loving a monster." He whispers looking at the screen with a grin.
