*This is Chapter Six of my fanfic “The monster within”. This is underneath my folder titled “The monster within”. This story is a fanfic of the R.L. Stine movie: “Monsterville: Cabinet of Souls”. It takes place a year after the events of the movie. Gacha Club character designs are on my wall. Enjoy!*

“Yeah, you guys have been acting weird all day.” Beth says, raising an eyebrow. She’s always so inquisitive. If anything were wrong with us she would be the first person to notice it. Ms. Sarkosian wanted her to join Journaling Club, but she declined. She’d rather hang out with us. I can’t tell if it’s because she likes us or if it’s out of pity. I have no idea how to feel about this.

Yet it’s Kellen who is the first one to ask. Beth must be influencing him. Either way, we’re both doomed.

“We wanted to tell you guys later.” I say, trying not to sound suspicious.

“And by later, you mean…” Beth makes a hand gesture for me to continue. Kellen watches, folding his hands. Luke swallows today’s french fries rather loudly. Ugh, why is he so gross?

“After school!” I blurt out, cringing at how high my voice sounds.

I hope I didn’t sound too panicky. I can’t afford having this conversation now.

It’s okay. We’re all good for now. Beth and Kellen have gone back to eating their lunch. Luke is also eating, but obnoxiously. I’ve managed to divert their attention.

After school, we’ll figure this out. After school, everything will be okay.

After all, Dr. Hysteria wouldn’t dare come for us again, right?
