Author's last note: Well, we did it, guys. We're on the last chapter. Now I can focus on the spin off! Sorry it took so long! Any suggestions of the subplots in the spin off, please PM me or leave it in your reviews. Just please remember what I said about Orpheus. Bear in mind that I started this not long after the first film came out and long before the sequel was being made; Dennis is going to be part of the spin off but he will not pre-zing with Winnie. He's staying as part of my story whether you like him or not. Also, I've been talking with Alien5703 about it being a possible crossover with his own HT story. It may work, especially since I've used time travel and the future in some of my chapters. But I don't have that much hope in myself as I've never attempted to do a crossover in my life! Also, I know a lot of you like ridiculously long stories but please remember that I've still human so I may not submit a new chapter soon enough and please be more reasonable about how long the story should be. But your continued support is always appreciated.
Dracula stepped back to examine the monster-sized karaoke machine he just had set up on stage in the recreational hall with Cordelia's help. A multitude of microphones had been attached to the machine. On each end of the stage were two industrial-sized speakers. An equally large screen for the lyrics stood proudly next to the machine.
Smiling, Dracula glanced at Cordelia. "Your verdict?" he asked.
Cordelia smiled widely in return. "You do live up to your word, my re-zing" she complimented.
It wasn't long until the room was filled with the hotel's entire clientele that evening. Dracula made it clear to the staff members on duty that any and all snack and drink requests were to be fulfilled.
First up was Henry, after both Jessie and Holly had bugged him into taking part. Luckily, he knew the perfect song for the occasion; I'm Still Standing.
"Go Henry!" Jeager yelled as the catchy intro stirred.
Henry: You could never know what it's like
Your blood like winter freezes just like ice
And there's a cold lonely light that shines from you
You'll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use
And did you think this fool could never win
Well look at me, I'm a-coming back again
I got a taste of love in a simple way
And if you need to know while I'm still standing, you just fade away
[Chorus] Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
I'm still standing after all this time
I'm picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind
I'm still standing yeah yeah yeah
I'm still standing yeah yeah yeah
Once I never could hope to win
You starting down the road leaving me again
The threats you made were meant to cut me down
And if our love was just a circus, you'd be a clown by now
[Chorus]
[Guitar solo, provided by Lowell]
[Chorus]
I'm still standing yeah yeah yeah
I'm still standing yeah yeah yeah
Applause filled the room.
"Nice one, mate!" Conner yelled.
"Now that's the Henry we know and actually like!" Wilbur shouted.
"Wilbur!" Jenna scolded.
Henry got off stage, only to be tackled into a hug by Jessie. She rose an eyebrow. "And you had the gall to hate on my 'old' phone?" she teased.
"You can't really hate on Elton John. The guy's a legend.." Henry defended.
Holly rolled her eyes and smiled at her brother's moment with his zing.
Next up were Jenna, Mavis and Jessie. They had unanimously agreed on 'I'm in Love with A Monster'. The loudest whoops came from Johnny, Wilbur and Henry as the trumpets in the intro started and their zings started dancing.
Jessie: Oh, he'll buy me a thorn before he'll buy me a rose
Be covered in dirt before I'm covered in gold
He's trying it on, yeah, he's ticking me off
Say what you want but I won't ever be told
'Cause I'm in love with a monster
Mavis: Friends say I'm stupid and I'm out of my mind
But without you, boy, I'd be bored all the time
Jenna: No, I don't really care for the same conversation
Got everything I need, and I'd rather be chasing
Chasing love, with a monster
[Chorus; All] I'm in love (I'm in love)
I'm in love (I'm in love)
I'm in love with a monster
I'm in love (I'm in love)
I'm in love (I'm in love)
I'm in love with a monster
I'm in love with a monster
Jenna: Wrap me in leather before you wrap me in lace
We break the rules like we changing the game
Jessie: He's trying it on, and he's ticking me off
Say what you want but I won't ever be told
I'm in love with a monster
Jenna: My daddy told me, I should have better taste
But I'd rather pay to see the look on his face
Mavis: No, I don't really care for the lame conversation
Got everything I need, and I'd rather be chasing
Jenna & Jessie: Chasing love, with a monster
[Chorus; All]
I'm in love with a monster (hey)
Mavis: Sweeter you try, they don't, not getting love from it
Ain't worth a dime 'cause I just don't get enough from it
Leave it to me, don't you see, I don't run from it
Bitter but better, hey, hey, hey, hey
Mavis & Jenna: You make me crazy, but I love it (Jessie: I love it baby)
You make me crazy baby, but I love it (Jessie: pretty baby)
You make me crazy, but I love it
You make me crazy baby, but I love it
Jessie: I'm in love with a monster
Mavis: Everybody now
Jessie & Jenna: Did you know (did you know)
Did you know (did you know)
Everybody loves a monster (mmm yeah)
Did you know (did you know)
Did you know (did you know)
Everybody loves a monster (yeah)
I'm in love (we're in love) with a monster
(Mavis: I'm in love)
I'm in love with a monster
Are you in love with a monster? (Mavis: I'm in love)
I'll never find another monster
I wanna know, I wanna know
I'm in love with a monster
Mavis: Hit it, hit it, hit it!
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight
Thank you, goodnight
The three girls bowed as everyone erupted into applause once the song was over. They then got offstage, Jenna and Mavis heading to their zings.
After much encouragement from his friends, especially from Johnny and Mavis, Dracula and Cordelia even got up onstage to sing a duet of 'Still Falling For You'. (A/N: I had so much trouble thinking up a suitable song for Cordelia and Dracula but I found that this one was perfect for them).
Cordelia: Fire and ice
This love is like fire and ice
This love is like rain and blue skies
This love is like sun on the rise
This love got me rolling the dice
Don't let me lose
Still falling for you, still falling for you
Dracula: Beautiful mind
Your heart got a story with mine
Your heart got me hurting at times
Your heart gave me new kind of highs
Your heart got me feeling so fine
So what to do
Still falling for you, still falling for you
Cordelia: It took us a while
With every breath a new day
With love on the line
We've had our share of mistakes
Dracula: But all your flaws and scars are mine
Still falling for you, still falling for you
[Both: Chorus] And just like that
All I breathe, all I feel
You are all for me, I'm in
And just like that
All I breathe, all I feel
You are all for me
No one can lift me, catch me the way that you do
I'm still falling for you
Dracula: Brighter than gold
This love shining brighter than gold
This love is like letters in bold
This love is like out of control
This love's never growing old
You make it new
Still falling for you, still falling for you
Cordelia: It took us a while
'Cause we were young and unsure
With love on the line
What if we both would need more
Both: But all your flaws and scars are mine
Still falling for you, still falling for you
Still falling for you
[Both: Chorus]
Cordelia: Falling, crash into my arms
Love you like this
Like a first kiss
Never let go
Dracula: Falling, crash into my arms
Never breaking what we got
Still falling for you
Still falling for...
Both: And just like that
All I breathe, all I feel
You are all for me
I'm in
And just like that
All I breathe, all I feel
You are all for me
All for me
And just like that
Dracula: All I feel is you, all I feel is you
You are all for me
I'm still falling...
Cordelia: And just like that
All I feel is you, all I feel is you
You are all for me
No one can lift me, catch me the way that you do
Both: I'm still falling for you
There was not a dry eye in the room as every monster and human were moved to tears by the two re-zings and their duet. Mavis wiped a stray tear from her eye as the last notes of the music died out; no one was as happy for her father as she was. Well, maybe one other person; her grandmother.
Vasilisia came up on the stage to hug both her son and her new daughter-in-law. She knew that there was no words to describe just how elated and proud she was for her son.
While Jenna was talking with the other she-monsters, Wilbur was being given some last minute encouragement from Johnny.
"You can totally do this, Wilbur" Johnny stated.
"Dude, have you ever tried to propose to your zing before?" Wilbur couldn't help but call out his soon to be brother-in-law.
Johnny blushed. "I'm working on it.." he admitted.
Wilbur rolled his eyes. Then again, out of all his in-laws, he had always been closest to Johnny; since the second Johnny learnt that Wilbur and Jenna had zinged. So he got up to perform the perfect song for Jenna; 'Classic'. "Hey! Where's the drums?" he stated just as the drum intro started up.
Wilbur: Oh whoa-oh-oh-oh! Let's go!
Ooh girl you're shining
Like a 5th avenue diamond
And they don't make you like they used to
You're never going out of style
Ooh pretty baby
This world might've gone crazy
The way you save me
Who can blame me
When I just wanna make you smile?
[Hook:] I wanna thrill you like Michael
I wanna kiss you like Prince
Let's get it on like Marvin Gaye
Like Hathaway, write a song for you like this
[Chorus:] You're over my head, I'm out of my mind
Thinking I was born in the wrong time
One of a kind, living in a world gone plastic
Baby you're so classic
Baby you're so classic
Baby you, baby you're so classic
Four dozen roses
Anything for you to notice
All the way to serenade you
Doing it Sinatra style
I'ma pick you up in a Cadillac
Like a gentleman bringin' glamour back
Keep it reel to reel in the way I feel
I could walk you down the aisle
[Hook:]
[Chorus: 2] You're over my head, I'm out of my mind
Thinking I was born in the wrong time
It's love on rewind, everything is so throwback-ish (I kinda like it, like it)
Out of my league, old school chic
Like a movie star from the silver screen
You're one of a kind living in a world gone plastic
Baby you're so classic
Baby you're so classic
Baby you're so classic
Baby you're class and baby you're sick
I never met a girl like you ever 'till we met
A star in the 40s, centerfold in the 50s
Got me tripping out like the sixties
Hippies, Queen of the discotheque
A 70s dream and an 80s best
Hepburn, Beyoncé, Marilyn, Massive
Girl you're timeless, just so classic
[Chorus: 2]
Whoa oh oh (Yeah, yeah)
Baby you're so classic (Yeah, yeah)
Yeah
Baby you're so classic
Uuuuuuh uh uh
Wilbur took a bow as his friends and family whooped like crazy. As soon as he got offstage, he went over to Jenna and led her out of the room by the hand. The teenage monsters all snuck after them, despite knowing what was going to happen.
Winnie and Emina hobbled after the older monsters.
Dracula saw this, a proud grin etched on his face. He knew exactly what would happen.
Jenna thought over the possible reasons why Wilbur had done what he did. He was obviously planning something. The question was what?
Wilbur didn't stop until he was on the roof with Jenna. That's when the questions from her started.
"What was that all about? What's gotten into you?" Jenna asked the werewolf.
Wilbur took a deep breath and faced his zing. His silver eyes taking in every feature; from her slightly messy red hair and the sparse freckles on her nose to the way her red gingham shirt and jeans fit her comfortably. Finally his eyes met with her bright amber-brown eyes, reminded of how the first time he had looked into those eyes; he had known he'd found his other half.
Jenna immediately knew that there was something on Wilbur's mind. "What?" she asked softly.
Wilbur smiled. "If someone told me 3 years ago that I'd be standing here with an incredible human zing who happens to be the mother of my were-pup, I'd had called them crazy. But now, I'm so crazily in love with you I'd fight for you again in a heartbeat" he stated.
Jenna giggled as she stroked the side of Wilbur's face. "Where did all this come from?" she asked.
Wilbur nuzzled into Jenna's touch. "I wasn't finished, Jen" he reminded her.
"Oh" Jenna answered sheepishly.
Taking both of Jenna's hands in his, Wilbur found the words he had been meaning to ask. Only when her zing got on one knee did Jenna piece it all together. "I know it's a bit sudden but..Jenna, will you be my wife?" he asked.
It took a few minutes for Jenna to find her voice; and the answer was obvious. "Of course!" she replied as she tackled Wilbur into a giant hug. He smoothly slipped the ring on Jenna's left ring finger before kissing her deeply and feverishly.
Every monster and human cheered after the two told them later.
And that is all she wrote. Finally! I can crack on with the spin-off. I may edit bits and pieces that don't make sense but that is the final chapter. Thank you so much for being avid readers and supporters of the story. Hopefully that support will flow into the spin-off but…idk. Bye bye!
