Hi guys! I just wanted to say thanks for the favorites, follows, and reviews. They mean a lot to me. :)

I also wanted to bring up something that a guest reviewer mentioned. While writing this story I did realize that Baby Tooth could try phasing through one of the walls or windows to get outside the building and away from the pups. However, this kind of situation has never happened to Baby Tooth before (especially not with werewolves), so she's panicking a little and not thinking straight. I'm glad the reviewer saw this, and thought that her poor exit strategy was warranted. (Thanks for that whoever you are!) I just wanted to clarify that plot point, in case anyone was confused about it and hadn't made that connection.

Thanks!


When the bird made a break for the door Griffin had managed to step in the way and catch it. Dracula strode over to the invisible man as he held the creature, currently ignoring the pups as they begged for their pet back. Normally they would have just swarmed Griffin, but if they did that they could hurt their discovery.

"Hey, are we sure this is a bird?" Griffin asked, turning the creature back and forth, inspecting it.

Now that Dracula was closer he understood the invisible man's question. It looked very much like a bird, covered in feathers, a pair of wings, a humming bird style beak, but now that he could see it clearly he could also see a pair of intelligent mismatched eyes, along with tiny hands and feet. It also had a belt with a small gold disk on it, and was holding something white in it's little hands. Drac got a suspicious sinking feeling in his chest. Before he could say anything about it, the bird like creature stuck it's beak into Griffin's hand. The invisible man yelped and instinctively flung his hand away from himself, and the little winged body was sent flying into the stone side of the hearth.

Winnie started running for fallen bird, and Drac turned to smoke to try and beat her there. Both of them were too slow.

"My Baby!" A distressed female voice cried out. A giant blue-green blur swooped in and out before either monster could reach their goal. The vampire rematerialized and looked up to where the blur had stopped.

The unconsious bird creature was now being cupped in the pale hands of a much larger bird creature. She didn't have a beak, her face was very human. But she two was covered in bright feathers of green, blue, purple and yellow. She hovered high in the air, her wide violet eyes were filled with worry as she looked over the still form.

"Sweetie? Baby can you hear me?" She asked in a voice that was both soft and desperate.

The sinking feeling returned and filled Dracula with horror. The creature the pups had chased and wanted for a pet was another monster. Not only another monster, a child. Now the mother had come and found her little one like this. How was he ever going to make this up to her? He would never have forgiven someone who had treated Mavis in a similar fashion. He may not have been the one doing the chasing, but he was responsible for what happened at this hotel.

Unbeknownst to the vampire, Wayne and Wanda had made the same connection, and were now thinking and feeling the exact same thing.

Before any of them could think of how to start apologizing they were distracted once again. Three more tiny bird monsters entered the scene, looking almost exactly like their fallen sibling save for the different color of feather on their heads. They squeaked and trilled as they circled their mother.

"Girls, girls! I told you to stay outside until I called you. Yes I think she's going to be- oh look! She's waking up now!"

The little bird in the mother's hands was moving, twitching awake. She slowly sat up, squeaking lowly. When she caught sight of her mother's face just inches away she was instantly fully awake. She squealed happily and nuzzled her head against her mother's cheek. The mother laughed and held her closer.

"Oh Baby, I'm so happy your safe! Are you feeling okay now?" The little bird chirped and nodded and the mother smiled wider. Then she finally looked away from her child, and to the monsters gathered on the ground. Her face darkened.

"Girls, look after your sister. I'll be right back." The mother flew over to a wall and placed her baby on a high ledge. The other birds joined her, making sure their sister was stable before peaking over the edge to watch their mama. The bird woman descended on the group, fire blazing in her eyes.

"You all have exactly 30 seconds to explain what happened here! What do you think you were doing?!"

Dracula stepped forward, hands held out in a placating manner.

"Madame, I am so very sorry for what happened! Please understand, we never meant any harm to your child. Its just that the puppies, they get excited so easily. And they chase anything that moves. Even if they had caught her we wouldn't have let them hurt her."

The bird woman calmed slightly at his words, but still looked upset. She flew to the Count, getting in his face, and opened her mouth to scold again, but suddenly stopped. A curious look came over her face. Without warning she grabbed his jaw and brought his face a mere inch from her own.

"Oh my gosh, you have the most beautiful fangs I've ever seen!" she cried in delight.

Drac was a little taken aback by her sudden change of focus and attitude, but decided to take advantage of it.

"Uhhh, thank you. Thank you Miss..."

Tooth realized what he was getting at, and pulled away so they could look at each other properly again.

"Oh, my name is Toothiana, but my friends call me Tooth. Sorry about that, they're just so pretty!" Tooth suddenly remembered why she had gotten so close in the first place, and fluttered a little lower so she could look each monster in the eyes.

"So you weren't trying to take one of my girls?" She looked at each of them critically, even Griffin now that he had put his glasses back on.

"Of course not." Dracula confirmed.

"It's our fault Ms. Toothiana." Wanda spoke up. "She wandered into our room, and the kids thought she was just a normal bird. So they tried to keep her, and chased after when she flew away. If we'd known she was more than that we'd have tried harder to stop them. I'm so sorry we worried you."

Tooth looked between the werewolf mother and father, and her face suddenly brightened.

"You must be the parents of the little werewolf girl who lost a tooth recently, Winnie right?"

The couple's eyes widened in surprise.

"How did you know Winnie had lost one of her baby teeth?" Wayne asked. Tooth brushed the feathers on her head bashfully, embarrassed she hadn't explained this sooner.

"Well, it's my job to know. I'm the Tooth Fairy."

The revelation was met with various levels of jaw dropping. Wayne's was open the widest, closely followed by Dracula. Well, Griffin might have been in the lead, but it was impossible to know. Pretty much every monster knew about spirits like the Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny, or had heard stories about them. They shared a sort of kinship with the spirits, since monsters were also considered figures of myth and fairy tale. But very few monsters had every seen them in person. Tooth's words were almost too amazing and startling to take in, and the adults didn't know what to say. The one that finally breaks the silence is the tooth donor herself.

"You're really the Tooth Fairy?" Winnie asked in awe.

"Of course." Tooth said with a warm smile. The fairy queen reached into a small pouch she had at her waist. She'd learned not to do this with human children, but she had a feeling the monster children would be much more appreciative. She brought her hand up and opened it in front of Winnie, showing pearly white teeth with red roots. "See?"

Winnie let out a short excited howl and sniffed the teeth eagerly. Soon her brothers had joined her.

"Look at the blood and gums!" Wyatt yipped excitedly. Tooth's smile widened.

"Miss Tooth Fairy? Can I talk to the little fairy?" Winnie suddenly asked. Having forgiven them for the mix up and chase, Tooth nodded. She flew up to the ledge and offered her cupped hands to Baby Tooth. Still tired from the chase, the little fairy took the offered ride. By now the adults had regained their composure and were watching curiously. Tooth flew down and settled on the floor, holding Baby Tooth up to Winnie's height.

"Hi." Winnie said shyly. "I'm sorry I caught you, and chased you around the hotel. Do I still get a quarter for my tooth?"

Baby Tooth twittered. She stepped onto the edge of her mother's hands and patted Winnie on the nose, then turned around and showed Tooth the canine she still held, squeaking and chattering the whole time. Tooth smiled.

"Of course you still get your quarter. You brushed and flossed so well, after all. Baby Tooth says that she left the quarter right before you found her. It should still be in your hotel room somewhere."

The other fairies she had brought with her joined them now, tweeting warmly at the wolf pups. They also ganged up on Drac, poking around his mouth to see the pretty fangs their mother had noticed.

"Girls, girls, remember the uniform." She pulled them back a ways, and turned to Dracula. "Sorry again sir. My girls can be pretty excitable too."

"It's quite alright Ms. Fairy. Especially after everything we've put you through."

"It was an honest misunderstanding."

"Still, I think it entitles all of you to a little leeway, and I feel I must make it up to you. Would you care for a tour of the hotel?"

Tooth thought for a moment. She was always busy with her work, but she had made sure the others would be alright for a while. She could make her rounds after a quick tour. Plus, Baby Tooth would probably want to rest a bit more before making the long flight home.

"I'd like that. Thank you."


A.N.

Hello again! I hope you enjoyed that chapter. I wanted to let you know that it might be a while before I post anything more for this story. This chapter covers the original idea I had, and while I have a few ideas for a continuation my summer is about to get pretty busy. So I won't have much time for writing or working a plot out. I hope this chapter is enough of a resolution for you.

I struggled with writing Tooth's scene a bit. I wanted to show her being rightfully angry about what happened, but not unreasonable. Though she's still very protective of her fairies I'd like to think that she learned her lesson about jumping to conclusions after the events of ROTG. I hope she, and the other characters, turned out okay in this.

Thank you so much for reading, have a great day!
