A Boy & A Zombie

by FakeKing1215

Summary:

Zed Necrodopolis x Male OC (x Wyatt Lykensen, eventually)

What will happen when Riley locks eyes with a certain zombie? Will a relationship bloom? Or will the societal pressures get to them?

This is just a rewriting of Z-O-M-B-I-E-S with Addison being replaced as a love interest. I plan on adding Z-O-M-B-I-E-S 2 and 3 when I'm done with the first movie so look out for that.

Also I don't own the Z-O-M-B-I-E-S franchise, obvi. This work is also posted on Wattpad under the same name.

Chapter 1: Not So Bad

Riley POV

"Riley, you ready?" My mom asked from downstairs. "I'll be down in a few, mom." I responded. I finish getting dressed and go downstairs to join my family for breakfast. "Be sure to be safe, today the," Mom paused just to gag, "Zombies are getting integrated into your school.". "Oh come on mom, it cannot be that bad." I responded, giving her a look. "Just, be careful." She replied. I finished my breakfast, put on my backpack, and headed out side. 'Why are people singing?' I thought. 'It's way too early for this'.

Addison

I'm fired up!
Tryouts today
I'm gonna blow 'em away
Dad says I can't go wrong
As long I keep this on
Seabrook's been the best like forever!
Mom's counting on me no pressure
Cheer's in my family genes
Come on let's do this thing!

"Of course Addie's starting it." I said to myself, walking away. I got to school and it looks like the songs over. 'Thank goodness.' I thought. I looked over to the fence separating the zombies and saw someone looking back at me. 'He's hot' I said to myself, flashing him a smile. He smiled back and boy was it beautiful. 'Okay, I need to stop acting like a girl in a romcom and get to class'.

"Hey, Riles." Addie said to me. "Hi, Addie." Me and Addie have been friends since the 2nd grade, we're kinda inseparable now. We walked and talked together because we had the same first period. "My cousins not very excited to be having zombies in our school." Addie said. "Well, who cares what he or anyone else thinks, one of them is pretty cute." I said, lowering my voice saying that last part. "Ooooooooh." Addie responded, making me laugh.

People don't like different in Seabrook, unfortunately I had something I couldn't hide, Vitiligo. It's where the skin loses its pigment cells and it causes me to have patches on my body where my dark skin is disrupted by a different pigment of skin tone. People do pick on me because of it, but fortunately for me Addie's always got my back.

After all, she knows what it's like to be different too. Addie wears a wig to cover up her white hair, nobody knows why she has it. I think it makes her look beautiful, but she thinks otherwise.

Zed POV

"I'm Principal Lee, We are thrilled to be forced to have," She squealed, trying to squeeze between two zombie students. "you here. Do not leave the basement. Okay, have a great year." She said, obviously barely meaning it. "Principal Lee," I started, "I was just wondering, how do I try out for the football team?"

"And the computer coding club?" Eliza added.

"Grusic." Bongo said.

"Let me ask you this. Do any of these involve leaving the basement?" Principal Lee said. "Well, yeah I guess." I replied. "Then I guess, you don't. So no tryouts for you. I am sorry. I don't mean it. Have a great day. That's just an expression. EXCUSE me." Principal Lee said, squeezing past us.

While everyone payed attention to the janitor, now teacher, I snuck out. Unfortunately I hit my leg on a metal shelf causing me to limp. That caused someone to yelp and assume I was a rogue zombie, setting of the Z-Alarm. I booked it to the nearest zombie safe room because some jocks were trying to catch me.

Riley POV

I walked into the zombie safe room after, Addie and her new friend screamed at something behind me, I don't know what it was, but it made them run off. As I closed the door behind me someone hid behind a box, "Hello?" I said. "Hello?" Someone responded. "Hello?" I repeated. "Why, hello." The person said back. "Don't any ideas buster, the only thing deadlier than my high kick is my low kick." I said.

"Sorry, this just wasn't how I was expecting my first day at a new school to be like." He responded. "You didn't expect to locked in a zombie safe room?" I asked. "Oh, no I expected that it's sort of my thang." He said, earning him a chuckle from me. "So I'm not gonna get low kicked?" He said. "You're safe for now." I said.

We both walked towards each other making small talk, when all of the sudden the lights came back on, revealing Zed was a zombie. "Oh, your a zombie." I said. "Yeah...I am." He said, seeming hurt. "Oh, no, no, no, I didn't mean it like that!" I said. "My parents taught me that zombies are cold, undead, freaks, but your not hideous at all." I said.

"I'll take that." He said, laughing. We stayed in the safe room getting to know each other more. 'Dammit, the more he talks, the more I fall for him' I thought. "Oh crap, I forgot I gotta get to football tryouts!" Zed exclaimed. "Well, then I wish you luck." I said, kissing him on the cheek. Zed was stunned and so was I, "C-catch ya later." I said, awkwardly walking out. 'Ughhhh, I'm such an idiot, why did I do that!' I thought to myself.

Chapter 2: Zombies at a Pep Rally

Zed POV

I stood there for a bit, my hand on my cheek, 'I new there was some kind of spark' I said to myself.

~~~

"Okay, Welcome to football tryouts. As you know, this town is a cheerleading town, 'cause this town likes to win and our football team is awful, so we are not gonna win this year and I'm probably gonna lose my job." Coach said. 'That's depressing' "Good news for you though," Coach continued, "You all made the team. Whoopee.". "Yes, I made it!" I exclaimed. "Except for the zombie." Coach added.

"What?", "Principal Lee said you guys shouldn't even leave the basement. She didn't tell you?" Coach said. "No," I lied, "Don't think so. I think I would've remembered that.", "Come on. Just let me be on the team." I pleaded, "Can't have a zombie on the field. We'd look like a laughingstock, and besides, I'm no trailblazer. Y'know I'm more of a follower. Actually, I'm not even really good at that. So..." Coach said. I scoffed and walked away, not wanting to be there anymore.

~~~

"Football's stupid anyway." Eliza said, after I told her what happened. "Thanks for the pep talk." I responded, sarcastically. "Y'know I think that human likes me." I continued. "The one who kissed you, no way I had noooo idea." Eliza said, sarcastically. "Listen Zed just be careful, humans are horrible." She said, pointing at graffiti on the wall reading "No Zombies".

"Things need to change."

~~~

Riley POV

"Good luck, Addie!" I said, before walking back to the bleachers. Addison's trying out for the Cheer Team and as a super supportive BFF I'm rooting for her. 'I swear to god if they start singing, I'm walking out.' I thought, unfortunately the gods decided to not listen to me today.

After, that whole fiasco, I walked down to where Addie and Bree were. "Congratulations, guys!" I said, hugging them both.

"Thanks, Riley. Ugh, I'm so happy to be on the cheer team!" Addie said, squeezing me a bit too tight. "Okay, okay, that's enough." I said, strained. "Sorry." She said. "Let the cheer initiation begin!" Bucky yelled, 'He's planning something, he always is.' I thought. "I'm coming with you both tonight, I've got a bad feeling about this." I told Addie.

~~~

"Every year for cheer initiation we like to remind zombies that we don't accept freaks in this town." Bucky said as we drove into ZombieTown. "That includes you, Riley." Tracey whispered to me. "Look who's talking, at least my hair doesn't look like an onion." I whispered back, leaving him looking at a mirror in distress. Bucky handed Addie and Bree a carton of eggs, "Egg that house and you'll officially be on of us." Bucky said. "Addie you shouldn't do this, do you know how much trouble we'll be in if we get caught?" I said. "Shut up, freak.", "BUCKY!" Addie yelled. "You look lost." A zombie lady said, causing Bucky and the ACEYs to drive off screaming.

She looked at us suspiciously, until I spoke up. "Listen my friend's dumb cousin wanted us to egg this house. Sorry for all the trouble, we'll leave. Have a nice night." I said. "Well thanks for not going through with it." Someone said behind us. The zombie lady walked back into her house as Me, Bree, and Addie turned around to face Zed. "O-oh hey, Zed." I said, remembering the events of today. "Have a nice night, you three." Zed replied, walking back towards his front door. We all started to walk back home until I heard Zed whisper my name.

I turned to face him, apparently Addie and Bree didn't hear, just for him to wink, blow me a kiss and walk back into his house. I stood there, blushing like crazy, until Addie noticed I wasn't following them and told me to catch up.

~~~

The next day me and Addie decided to walk down to the basement to invite the zombies to the pep rally since we still felt bad about last night. "Woah, woah! There's no human students in the basement." Their teacher told us. "Look we just wanted to invite you to our pep rally today." Addie stated. "Zombies don't do pep rallies." A zombie girl, who was standing next to Zed so I assumed she was his friend, said.

"Oh, okay." Addie said, glumly. "We'll think about it." Zed assured, giving me another wink. With that I smiled back at him and me and Addie left the room. "I see you, Riles." Addie told me. "What?", "You really think I didn't see him wink at you?" She clarified, making me put my hood over my head in embarrassment.

~~~

"Of course Zed's not coming. I mean zombies at a pep rally would be serious drama." Addie told me, as she was getting ready. Suddenly, Bree exclaimed, "There are zombies in the pep rally!". "They wouldn't dare." Bucky said, "We'll it looks like they did dare." I replied. 

I walked out of their dressing room and joined Zed and his friends on the bleachers. "Hey, Riley." Zed said, flirtatiously. "Gross." His friend said. "Hater." Zed replied. I chuckled and moved over a bit closer to Zed. 'I hope nothing goes wrong this time.' I thought.

~~~

'Why must I jinx things.'

Chapter 3: Change

Riley POV

'They know that zombies have a past with fire.' I thought. "Don't worry about it. A little fire's not gonna hurt us." Zed assured Bonzo, who was panicking. "FIRE!" Bonzo yelled, pushing Zed out of the way as he tried to leave. "Zed, you good?" I said, crouching down to see if he was okay. "Yeah, I'm good." He said, getting back up. I noticed his Z-Band looked like it was glitching out, "Zed is your Z-Band malfunc-" I was cut off by Zed, groaning. "Woah dude, what's happening to you?" I said, referring to how his veins were popping and a deep purple. The bags under his eye seemed to spread, 'Oh wow, he got hotter-', Ugh what is wrong with me?!

We both looked don to try and see where Bonzo went, when we saw him run through the guys who ere supposed to catch Addie. "Addie!" I yelled, Zed ran past me and pushed some jocks out of the way just in time to catch Addie, 'Looks like his Z-Band was reset.'. "Oh my god! Addie are you okay?" I said, running down to give her a hug. "I'm okay, Riles." She assured, "Thanks for catching me, Zed.", "No, problem." Zed replied, with a smile. "You! Me! We gotta talk!" Coach said, pointing to Zed.

Zed POV

"He went through my offensive linemen like they were scrawny freshmen!" Coach exclaimed. "Principal Lee, I can explain." I said, standing up. She stopped me, "Coach wants you on his team." She clarified. "Really?", "Yeah! With a monster like..." I gave Coach a look, "Monster player like you, we can turn the football team around. And with fan support maybe I can keep my job, move out of my parent's basement, get a cat, get a gym membership, turn it all around. It sounds so dreamy. I need you on the team, Zed!" Coach said, desperately. "Uh, okay, can you just give me a second to think about it." I said, "Yeah, sure it...it's cool." Coach responded.

"I can only agree if there are some changes. Full integration for all zombies." I said, "Oh, excuse me." Principal Lee started, "There only one little problem. You haven't won a game yet.", "That's a mere technicality." I said back, "Could you throw my star player a bone?" Coach said, "Not literally.". "Okay, look, in good faith, I will allow zombies to eat in the cafeteria and once you start racking in those wins, then...we'll talk about those other demands. All right?" Principal Lee said. "Yeah, deal." I responded.

Riley POV

"Hello, students. This is Principal Lee. As you may have heard, the zombie students are now allowed to eat in the cafeteria." Lee stated, over the loudspeaker causing most of the cafeteria to groan. "Ugh, just deal with it." She added.

The zombie students entered the cafeteria and I immediately scanned them to see if I could spot Zed. I saw him sit down with some of his friends, he looked so cute. "My heart's racing and my palms are sweaty." Me and Addie said in unison. We looked at each other and she knew what I was thinking. "Zed's girl friend." Addie assured, "Okay, good." I responded.

"Hey, Riley!" A voice called for me, it was Zed, and he was waving me over. "Well, I can't be rude." I said, getting up.

As I walked towards their table unluckily for me I had to walk past Bucky and the ACEYs. "Makes sense they know each other, freaks have to stay together." They half whispered, obviously wanting me to hear. "Ignore them Riley, you're beautiful." Mom's word's echoed through my head. "Hey." I said, sitting down at their table. "Thank for catching Addie again, also why did Coach wanna talk to you?" I asked, "He wanted me to join the football team!" Zed answered, enthusiastically. "That's great!" I said, hugging him.

"Okay, why is he here?" His friend asked. "I just wanted to talk." Zed said, giving her a mean look. "What's your name?" I asked her, "Huh, uhh, Eliza." She answered, "Well nice to meet you." I said, holding out my hand for her to shake. She hesitated for a bit, then shook my hand. "Sorry, if we got off on the wrong foot. By the way, I love your outfit." I said, smiling. "Oh, really? Thanks!" She said.

Me, Zed, Eliza, and Bonzo all had a blast talking to each other. "Hey, Riley, come on follow me." Zed said getting up. I followed him out of the cafeteria as we walked into the zombie safe room. "This is where we first met." I said, then I remembered the past events. "L-listen, I'm sorry for what happ-" I was cut off by Zed crashing his lips onto mine. It felt nice. The kiss started to get more and more heated as Zed pinned me to the wall.

Chapter 4: The Game

(Just a heads up, things get a little spicy in the beginning of the chapter.)

Riley POV

Zed pulled away and we stared into each other's eyes for a moment, before continuing. Zed started to kiss my neck, leaving hickeys everywhere. "F-fuck, Zed." I moaned, as he kept going. 'Should we really be doing this?' I thought, 'O-oh, fuck yeah we should.' I changed my mind, quickly. I pushed Zed onto the floor with his back on the wall and sat on his lap, continuing to make out with him. He licked my lip and I opened my mouth to allow him access. As I felt both of our pants get tighter, the bell rang. "We'll, continue this someday." I said, giving him a peck on the cheek and as I was about to walk out Zed called me. "Hey Riley!", "Yeah?", "Be my secret boyfriend?", I thought about it for a moment. "Absolutely."

"Hey, mom, I'm gonna stick around until after school." I said, over the phone, "Okay, sure, yeah, yeah. Okay, Love you too, Mom. Bye.".

~~~

I walked up the bleachers and spotted Eliza and Bonzo, so I decided to sit with them. "Hey, guys.", "Oh, hi Riley." Eliza responded. Bonzo said something in Zombie which I'm assuming was a greeting. "Let's hope Zed wins this game, or else it's back to the basement with us." Eliza told me, "Don't think like that, I'm sure Zed will be exceptional." I assured her.

~~~

'Why do I keep jinxing everything?!', Zed wasn't doing as well as we all hoped. "Ugh, they are 100% targeting him!" I said, angrily. "Some people." Eliza responded.

I walked down the bleachers, towards Zed. "Are you okay?" I asked, "Yeah, yeah I'm fine. Just a little pain, but it's all good." He responded. "Just, be careful." I said, looking into his eyes pleadingly, "Please."

Zed POV

'He's so fucking cute.'

"Of course." I responded. "Hey, you tell Eliza to come down here? I need to talk to her." I said, "Sure." He responded, and headed back up to tell Eliza.

~~~

"Yeah, no, I'm sorry I'm letting you talk me into doing this." Eliza said, after I told her what I needed. "I just need a little Zom-boost. Okay?" I responded, "Like what happened at the pep rally.". Eliza laughed, "Because that wasn't almost a total disaster. Yeah, no, I'm not doing it." She repeated. "Look, you...you already jailbroke your Z-Band to play video games." I said, trying to convince her, "This is different. Okay, this is ludicrously dangerous." She said. "If I win this game that's good for us and...and that's good for zombies and isn't that what we need?", Eliza opened her laptop and got to work. "Thank you, Liza." I said, giving her a hug.

~~~

'Okay Zed, always swipe left.' I told myself.

Riley POV

'DAMN, when did Zed get so good all of the sudden?', "Jeez, Zed's tearing them to shreds, now!" I said, "Y-yeah, he sure got good in the last 5 minutes." Eliza said, looking nervous. I paid no mind and kept watching my, secret, boyfriend kick ass.

~~~

"Another win for our football team, thanks to Zombie Zed. So be sure to show some zombie pride. Oh, and tickets are on sale for next week's Cheer Championship, so get yours today." Principal Lee, stated over the loudspeaker. Everyone in the cafeteria was going up to the zombies, not gonna lie I was getting a little jealous. "Bae-, uhh Riley!" Zed called, waving me over. This time Addison came with me as I told her that her crush's name was Eliza. Suddenly, Bucky came up from behind us and grabbed Addie.

"You're either pro-cheerleader or pro-zombie. Decide now." Bucky said to her. "Would you kindly, fuck off?" I said, grabbing Addie's hand to continue walking. Addie yanked her hand back, "I'm sorry Riley, I wanna be a cheerleader." She said, turning back to Bucky. I watched them walk away in disbelief, 'How could she do that?', I told myself I would talk to her later.

I walked back over to Zeds table and sat down. "Babe? Are you okay?" Zed whispered to me, "Huh, oh, uh, yeah I'm fine." I replied, faking a smile. As everyone talked I just kinda sat there bummed about what just happened.

"Riley, wanna finish what we started?" Zed whispered to me again

Chapter 5: Steamy⚠️❤️

                                                                     ⚠️ Smut Warning ⚠️

Riley POV

I sat on Zed's lap again as we continued our make out session. We both moaned into the kiss as it got more and more heated. Zed pulled away and started biting and sucking my neck; I was a moaning mess. I felt my pants tighten, so I started grind on Zed's lap. "O-oh sh-shit, f-fuck, Ry." Zed moaned out, "You like that?" I said, grinding faster. "Fuck, yeah Ry." This time I left hickeys all over Zed's neck as he continued to moan for more, then he tugged at my hoodie. I quickly ripped it off as Zed took off his shirt.

He then pushed me down, lightly, on the floor making him be on top of me. "Are you sure you want to do this?" Zed asked me, "100%" I replied, I slid off my pants and so did Zed leaving both of us in our boxers. Zed then started to grind our erections together, making me moan like crazy, "Your so...fucking...cute." Zed stated, between moans.

"I...know." I said, teasing him. After a few minutes just grinding we both were ready, Zed took of my boxers, letting my member spring out onto my stomach. I covered myself in embarrassment, Zed grabbed my hands and pinned them above my head, "You're beautiful, Ry."

Zed started leaving kisses along my jaw, neck, and chest, going lower every kiss, until he reached my penis. He took in the tip as I moaned feeling a new pleasure, Zed slowly starts to bob his head going faster after a while. "Bae, I'm c-clo- AAUGH." I said, releasing into Zed's mouth. After a bit of both us just panting, I broke the silence by saying, "Let me return the favor."

Zed sat up with his back against the wall as I took off his boxers, leaving his dick to hit me in the face.

We both started to erupt in laughter, "I'm sorry." Zed said, calming down. When I calmed down I took in his tip and slowly started to lower my head, 'He's lucky I don't have a gag reflex.'. I started to bob my head, earning me multiple moans from Zed, "Shit, baby, you're so good.". After a while I felt Zed's dick start to twitch, "Ry, I'm so fucking close." Zed said, after a bit he came into my mouth and I swallowed all of it.

Zed POV

"Alright, again, are you sure you want to do this?" I asked him. "And again, I'm 100% sure." Riley replied. Without another word Riley placed himself on my lap and we resumed our make out session. After a bit, Riley grabbed my dick and started to lower himself slowly, "Mm, Fuuck." We said in unison, I stayed still for a bit, until Riley said, "I-I'm ready." I nodded and started to thrust upward, slowly.

After a few minutes Riley started to get more and more used to it and wanted me to go faster. "OH, Fu-Fuck, Zed, right there!" Riley yelled out, I kept thrusting harder and faster as I felt my dick start to twitch.

"I'm gonna-" I tried to say, but my moans stopped me from doing so. "M-me, T-too." Riley said, between moans, another few thrusts later and Riley came all over our chests and I released inside of him. We both moaned as we settled for one last kiss, "That...was...amazing." Riley said, in between moans. "I know, I was there." I said, jokingly, "Ha ha, very funny." We both laughed. "Come on the bell should ring in a few minutes, let's get you cleaned up." I said.

Chapter 6: Zombie Mash

Riley POV

"Riles? Can I talk to you?" Addie said. I didn't want to hold my grudge forever so I answered her, "Yeah?", "I need you to help me with something, to tell Zed the reason I can't talk to him.".

As some people came up to Zed asking for autographs, I was finishing setting up Addie's project. When I was done I walked towards Zed as his fans walked away. "Hey, Babe." I said, with a slight whisper. I hate that we have to keep our relationship a secret, but as I said before Seabrook hates different. "Hi, Ry." Zed said, giving me a hug. We chatted for a bit and then got up to head to our next classes. "Alright, I need to get some stuff from my locker." Zed said, 'That worked out perfectly.' I thought.

As he opened his locker, glitter splashed all over his face and he picked up the card in there. "Cheering for you on the inside!", it read, "The cheer squad is forcing Addie to not talk to you. So that's why she wasn't been able to sit with us at lunch." I explained, "Good to know, now I can tell Eliza that her crush isn't avoiding her." Zed said with a laugh, "Oh? Eliza has a crush on Addie? That's crazy, Addie has a crush on Eliza!" I said, excited for my bestie to finally have a chance at dating.

~~~

"Yeah, go Zed!" Me and most of the crowd cheered, then Bonzo gave me a beautifully crafted origami bird and gave me a hug. I chucked and opened the note, it read: "Ready to break every rule in the book? Meet me at the barrier. 7:00 p.m. Tonight.".

~~~

'Okay, I should start heading out.' I told myself, looking at my phone that read: 6:54 p.m. Luckily my parents go to "sleep" early. In reality they lock themselves in their room and do, good knows what! I quietly opened my window and slowly crept onto the roof, I jumped down and immediately regretted that decision as my legs ached, really bad. I finally got to the barrier and I checked my phone again, "Damn, 7:12!" I said, "Phew, I thought you stood me up!" A voice said in front of me.

I looked up only to realize it was Zed, "Hey, Baby." I said, giving him a peck on the lips, "Sorry I'm so late, I jumped off my roof and hurt my legs so I had to limp my way over here." I explained, "Oh, are you okay? Do you need-", "I'm fine." I interrupted. "Well, I'm still gonna help you." He said, putting my arm over his neck and his arm on my shoulder.

As we got on an elevator, I noticed Zed's wrist, it seemed to be purple, it looked pretty painful. Zed looked down at his wrist, glumly, he seemed to be a little uncomfortable. "Are you okay? You don't look so hot." I asked, "Ouch.", "You know what I meant!" I said, playfully punching his arm. "I have to mess with my Z-Band to win games." Zed said, looking down, "Isn't that dangerous?" I said.

"Ry, if I don't win zombies will never be accepted." "I know how you feel." I said, taking a look at my body. "Stop that you're amazingly beautiful." Zed told me, planting a kiss on my forehead, "Well so are you." I said, leaning up to give him a kiss. We stayed like that for a while, until the elevator came to a stop.

I gasped as I took in the sight before me, "Are you serious?" I said, still amazed, "Hey, it's a chance to get loose and be ourselves." Zed informed me. "So, this whole celebration is for you winning football games?" I asked, "It's more than that. It's a win for all of us, and we really needed a win." Zed answered back.

I looked to my left and saw a painting on a wall. "It's zombie tongue." Zed said, as he noticed my curiosity, "We have a rich language. 23 different words for brains.". "Woah!" I said, "So, you like someone with brains?" I said, mimicking a stereotypical zombie, causing us both to laugh. "You know that's super offensive." Eliza said, walking up to us, "Oh, no, no, no. It was just a joke. I'm sorry." I responded, feeling awful.

"Oh no, you're fine. I just meant it as a heads up." Eliza clarified, "Oh, phew, I felt like a real asshole." I said, relieved. I heard a loud, mechanical-type, noise and Zed said, "Aw it started! Come on." Zed said, running off, I followed closely behind him, confused.

Riley POV

'I can't believe I just joined in on a musical number.' I thought, 'I hate singing.'

I walked off to a secluded part of the area and saw a little girl cheering. "I'm crazy, I'm cute Zombie to boot. I'm rockin', I smile Zombies aren't vile!" She said, "That's some pretty good cheering!", "I wasn't doing anything. Certainly not cheering. Please don't tell anyone." She said, looking worried. "You're Zed's little sister, right?" I said, remembering Zed mentioning he had a sister in one of our conversations.

"I'm Zoey. You're Riley." Zoey responded, "That cheer makes me happy.", "Me too. You're great at cheerleading, Zoey." I said. "Thanks, but my pet Zander doesn't seem that impressed." She said, holding up a stuffed animal, "Well, he should be." I said, booping it on the nose, "But I think you're old enough to have a real pet. Wouldn't that be awesome?" I said, giving her a grin.

"They don't let Zombies have pets." Eliza said from behind us, "People think we'll eat them.", "I didn't know that, I'm still learning that zombies aren't what I was taught." I said, "I mean look at you, you're smart, cool, and pretty." "You think I'm pretty?" Eliza asked. "Girl, 100%!" I answered.

"There you are." Zed said, appearing from around the corner, "Zoey? Whoa...what are you doing here?" He asked her, "Please, I'm not gonna miss a zombie mash." She answered. "Zoey." Zed repeated, "Come on. Who's a good boy?" Zoey said, then Zed acted like he was a dog, "Me." He answered. "Good boy, good boy." Zoey said, "All right, I'll take you home." Eliza said, picking up Zoey, "Zed's gotta make sure Riley gets outta here."

Zed POV

"He's cool." Eliza said to me, "Yeah for a human, right?" I said back, "No, he's just cool. You guys look good together." She said, before walking off to bring Zoey home. I decided to take Riley to the zombie light garden to show him the wonderful sight. "It's beautiful." He said, "Just like you." I said, "How cliché." He responded, with a cheeky grin. We continued walking around around, until we met in the middle and looked at each other.

'How did I score you?' I said to myself, before leaning down to give him a kiss, it started soft and got more heated. I pinned him to a wall and he jumped up and wrapped his legs around my waist, I pulled away and started to kiss and suck on his neck as he tried to quiet his moans. "Show yourselves! You're out past curfew!" Someone said, I really wanted to help Riley, but I could not get caught right now. "Shit, forgive me bae. I gotta go." I said running off.

Riley POV

"Zombie! Freeze! Turn around." A police officer said, "Riley?", "Gus?" I asked. "What are you doing here? This is a hotbed for Zombie activity. It's not safe for humans." Gus said. I know Gus from my father, he and Gus were old buddies back in high school. "Come on let's get you home."

~~~

"You snuck out? Riley!" Mom said, "You know how dangerous it is out there?" Dad said, "I'm gonna go, Ryan." Gus said, walking out the house. "This town is full of monstrous zombies. What were you up to?" Mom questioned, "Uh, I...I was out with a boy." I said, "Oh, boy." Dad said.

They knew I was gay by now, so that's why they didn't question that.

"Now, who exactly is this boy?" Mom asked. “Well?" My parents said, waiting for my answer.

“Your electronics are off limits until we meet this boy." Mom said, "Right." Dad agreed.

Chapter 7: Problems

Riley POV

'This is so unfair.' I thought. "Ry!" Zed called behind me, "Last night, I wanted to help when the zombie patrol arrived, but I was just, I was afraid.", "Bae, it's not your fault." I told him, making him look relieved. "My parents won't let me near technology until they meet you." I informed him. Zed knows how big of a computer nerd I am. "Great! So, I'll just win them over with my quick wit and charming smile." Zed said, confidently.

"No. Not great. They don't know you're a zombie." I said, "And they hate zombies.". "Yeah. I'm so sorry." I said, "I'm sorry for making things difficult for you." He said, "Zed, you've done nothing wrong. You really think your making things difficult? My life was already difficult cause people couldn't handle the fact I have a skin issue." I said, holding back tears.

"Don't let people get to you, Ry. I'll be with you no matter what." Zed said, giving me a reassuring smile, "You know what? If my family can't accept zombies cause their different. That must mean they can't accept me either." I said, "Woah, that might be taking it a little too far? Plus, doesn't your dad also have Vitiligo?" Zed said, "Yeah, you're right." I said, realizing how stupid the sentence I said was.

~~~

"I can't do this anymore, there's something you need to know." I told my parents, "Okay." Mom said, "Now we're getting somewhere." Then we all heard a knock at the door and my parents walked over to go open it. "Woah, wait, you do not wanna open that." I said, "Where are your manners?" Mom said, "Don't be ridiculous." Dad added.

"Okay, fine. Open it. Yes, my date to the homecoming game is...", "Handsome." Mom interrupted, 'What?' I thought, I went to go look for myself and saw Zed standing there looking like a human.

'Eh, I like him better as a zombie.' I told myself, "You look-", "Dashing!", 'Wow, mom is in an interrupting mood today.'. Zed handed my mom some flowers and make small talk with my dad. "We're gonna go to the Homecoming game." I said, walking past them, "Nice meeting you." Zed said, before we walked off. "How did you, Y'know?" I said, "I adjusted my Z-Band." Zed replied. "I can feel the energy coursing through my bones right now. It's awesome!". "Hey, we still got time before the game. I owe you a real date. We did kinda move fast." Zed said, I laughed knowing what he was referring to, "Sounds great, Babe." I said.

~~~

I was in the dressing room helping Addie, "Take your pom-poms out there today, Bree." Addie said, "But I'm not a starter." Bree replied. "Who says? It's time things changed around here." I added.

I sat down on the bleachers, next to Eliza and Bonzo once more, as the two teams got ready. They started playing and Zed got tackled down almost immediately. 'Oof, I hope he's alright.'. After a few more games the score was Mighty Shrimp: 32 and Eels: 37. I ran down to go see Zed, "Hey." I said, "You okay?", "Yeah." He responded, "Almost there. I do this and we win.", I looked around to make sure no one was looking and gave him a peck on the lips, "Good luck. We'll all be cheering for you." I said.

I walked back up the bleachers and sat back down, "Give me a Zom!" Addie cheered, the crowd did as she said, "Give me a bie!", "Bie!" We all repeated. Bucky came up to her and it looked like he tried to stop her. Addie pushed him away and cheered, "Give me a Zom!, "Zom!", "Give me a Bie!, "Bie!", "What does that spell?", "Zombie!", "What does that spell?" She repeated. "ZOMBIE!".

After that I could barely hear what Bucky yelled at her, but I swear he said, "You're off the team you freak!". 'What a dick.' I thought, all of the sudden Bree started to cheer too, "Go, Zombies! Go, Zed!". Bucky then said, I'm assuming, the same thing to her. After the crowd was done cheering, Addie and Bree came up on the bleachers with us. "Hey guys." Addie said, "O-oh, hi Addison." Eliza said, nervously, I patted the seat next to me for Addie to sit down, making her be right next to Eliza. 'I'm such a good wingman.' I thought to myself, smugly.

Zed managed to get the win, however something was off. "Hey, Liza. Is Zed okay?" I asked, "I-I don't know, our Z-Bands are acting up." She answered. We all watched as Zed seemed to zombie out again. "Shit!" I uttered, all of us run down the bleachers as the Z-Alarm went off. Then Bonzo and Eliza also zombied out as well, before Eliza fully zombied out she said, "Focus on Zed, Riles.".

I told Addie and Bree to run to safety, while I ran in the opposite direction to look for Zed. I spotted him going behind the bleachers, and darted after him. I caught up and realized he was pursuing Bucky. 'As much as I want him to eat Bucky, it'll just make things worse.' I thought, "Zed!" I yelled out, He looked at me and instantly seemed a bit calmer. I approached him slowly, "You're gonna be okay, Babe." I said, he growled softly and walked towards me as well.

"You're gonna be okay." I repeated, placing a hand on his cheek. His Z-Band beeped and it looked like he was returning back to normal Zed. I gave him a kiss and he came back to his senses. I couldn't care less that Bucky saw the whole ordeal, I just wanted Zed to be okay.

Suddenly, a police officer came from behind us and put Zed in handcuffs, "No, no, no. Why are you taking him?" I said to him. I ran after him as he placed Zed into the back of a police van. Two more officers placed Eliza and Bonzo into the back of the van, too. "You can't do this! These are my friends!" I said. "We don't have human friends." Eliza said.

I turned around and saw my parents, "Listen, you don-" I started before mom cut me off. "You don't have to explain anything, honey.", "Go get your man." Dad said. "Thank you, oh and dad. Never say that again." I said, before running towards the van. "Zed, please." I said, "Ry, I'm sorry. Maybe they're right. Maybe we shouldn't be together." He responded.

“What? No! No, don't say that!" I said, trying to stop them. Addie suddenly came up from behind me. "I can't believe the ACEYs would do something like this." She said. I should've fucking known it was them. I had better things to worry about right now, though.

"Hey! You did this to him!" I said to the crowd, "All of you. He was your monster." "You made him feel like he had to risk his life to belong!" Addie joined in, "All because you couldn't handle someone different.". "But you had no problem using him to win your stupid game!" I said.

Then Addie did something that not even I expected, she took off her wig revealing her white hair to the crowd. I guess she was trying to prove a point, but the crowed didn't care and just continued on booing.

Chapter 8: The Championship⚠️❤️

Riley POV

That night I got a text from someone.

?: Hey, is this Riley?

Me: Yeah, who is this?

?: It's Eliza, I'm gonna need your help with something.

~~~

The night of the cheer championship was upon us and me and Eliza snuck in to initiate our revenge plan. "You got the blueprint?" I asked, Eliza put her hands in her pockets and then said, "Aww shit. I must of left it in my locker.", "Well, good thing you texted me." I unlocked my phone and went to me and Eliza's conversation. After going over it we got to work.

Another team was up as me and Eliza were almost finished with our plan. We just had to make a few small adjustments and then we were good to go. "Okay, we're good." Eliza said, holding up her computer. "Hey, no, no, no, no! Put that away! Stop! Stop! Both of you stop!" Zed said, running in behind us.

Bonzo held up Eliza, "Ow, Get off of me you big lug!" She said, "Eliza, Ry, you can't do this!" Zed said, "Why not? It's finally time for karma to hit them back." I said, "Then let karma do it, don't take it into your own hands, Ry." He responded. "Ruining the Cheer Championship is only gonna prove their worst fears, that zombies are monsters." Zed added, "They think that anyway." Addie said, running in, "At least you have the guts to stand up for yourself. I say do it.". "Okay, I like this girl." Eliza said, her face turning a bright red.

"Sabotage isn't the zombie way." Zed said, "It's not who we are.", "It's not who you are." He said, looking at me then at Eliza. "I'm not a monster. I'm a zombie." Zed said, "And you're a cheerleader," He said looking at Addie, "No one's going to change the world through sabotage."

"Okay, um, so, no sabotage." Eliza asked, "No sabotage." Me, Zed, and Addie said in unison. "It's not who we are." Me and Addie said, hugging each other.

"Seabrook's up next!" Bree yelled to us. We all ran out to see what the hell the team was going to do now since they kicked off almost everyone. "The sweetest type of sabotage." Eliza said, as we all looked at how badly they were failing, "Self-sabotage." I added, giving her a fist bump. "Seconds in and Seabrook is literally falling apart." One of the announcers said.

Then Zoey ran onto the stage and cheered, "Let's go, Seabrook Cheer.", "Get off the stage, zombie!" Someone jeered. "What's she doing?" Bree asked, "She's changing things..." Addie answered, "by cheering.". "But that's not how change works. Okay, you can't just change things with one person and a pair of pom-poms." Eliza said, "Yeah, your right." I said, "It's gonna take more than just one person. It's gonna take all of us.".

"Like they'll ever see us as normal." Eliza said, "They won't. Because we're not normal." Zed said, "And they need to see that. Zombies celebrate their differences." Addie added. "So let's go out there and celebrate. Cheer Championship style." I said.

"Bucky...things can change." Zed said, as we all walked up to him. "Look, change is happening, Bucky." I said, "And we're not going away." Eliza added, "So, you can either fight us and lose,", "Or you can be a part of it." I said. Bucky stayed silent for a moment, before giving Addie his whistle, "I can't." He said, walking away. "I guess we need a new captain." I said, looking at Addie. "All right, here's the plan." Zed said, as we all huddled together, "We're gonna let our freak flags fly."

Riley POV

"Cheertastic!" One of the reporters said, "Cheertastic, indeed!" The other responded. I ran to give Zed a hug as everyone celebrated. "Who would've thought that two 'freaks'." I started, before Zed interrupted to say, "Could change the world and have their happily ever after.". "Gargarzaga!" I said, surprising him, "Yeah...I gargarzaga you, too." He replied. I leaned and and he leaned down and we met in the middle for a kiss.

3rd Person

Zed

Well, we didn't win the Cheer Championship.

Riley

But we did something even better.

Zed

We brought everyone together, and we threw an awesome block party.

Riley

Even my parents came!

Zed POV

"Hey, Zoey. Look what Ry got you." I said, as Ry handed her a puppy. Zoey was in awe as she said, "A puppy! My very own puppy! Zander, this is Puppy.", I gave Ry a look that said, "Thanks.".

"Aw, shoot a song is starting." Riley said, looking behind him. "You don't like singing? You joined in twice before." I said, "I know, I know, but I'm just not in the mood right now." Ry responded. "Then how about we do something more...fun." I said, into his ear.

⚠️Smut Warning⚠️

I led Ry back to my house, up the stairs, and into my room, locking the door behind me. I pinned Ry to the wall as we made out, I licked his bottom lip and he opened his mouth for me to explore. He moaned into the kiss, then jumped up and wrapped his legs around me. I pulled away to start working on his neck. "Mm, Fuck, Zed." He moaned out, when I sucked on a certain spot on his neck. So I kept abusing that spot on his neck, earning me many sounds of pleasure from him. Ry then started to move his hips, grinding our erections together.

"Unh, Ry." I moaned, "You like that, don't you Zombie?" Ry said, "Your dirty talking could use some work, Ry." I said with a chuckle. "I know." He said, before pushing me onto my bed and sitting on my crotch, Ry then started to moves his hips around again, earning him more moans from me. I pulled off my shirt and Ry took off his hoodie, I flipped us over so now I was in control.

I started to suck on his left nipple while playing with his right. "Mm, Zed." Ry moaned, running his hand through my hair. I finished sucking on his nipple and started to unbutton his jeans, pulling them off and then doing the same to myself. Ry got up and pushed me back down on my back, pulling off my boxers and deep throating me almost instantly. "Woah, c-calm down R-Ry." I said, in a mix of pleasure and worry.

"I'm fine, just relax Zom-bae."

"No."

"Fair enough."

Ry then started to blow me again, starting off slow and then picking up the pace. "Oh, g-god, yeees." I moaned out, before I came into his mouth. "I'm ready." He said. Knowing what he meant I took off his boxers and started to jerk him off. "Mmm, ahh." He moaned out, as I sped up. I stopped as soon as I felt him start to twitch, "Whyyyy.", "Don't worry a new pleasure will fill you soon." I said, flipping him over so he was on his hands and knees. I slowly inserted myself into him stopping when he let out a cry of pain.

"Are you okay? I could stop if you-"

"No, I'm fine. Keep going."

"Okay, love you." I kissed his cheek.

"Love you, too."

I started to resume my insertion, slowly, when it was all in I paused for a moment waiting for Ry to tell me to move.

"You can move."

I pulled out and went in again, before Ry told me to speed up. I slammed into him, over, and over again. "F-fuck, YES!" Ry yelled out, "Shhh. Not so loud, we don't know if the music that they're playing is gonna cover us." I said. After a few more thrusts Ry came all over my sheets and I shot into him. We lied there, panting for a bit, until Ry broke the silence, "I want to ride you.", "Woah, you sure? I mean we just-AUGH!" I said, getting cut off by Ry pushing me down and placing me inside of him again. "I'm sorry! Did I hurt you? W-we can stop if you want." He said, worried. "No, no, I'm okay just need a minute." I responded, placing a hand on his cheek.

"Okay, I'm ready."

Ry started to move his hips, "Mm, fuuck." We both moaned. I thrusted upwards and Ry continued to rock his hips, "I...love you." Ry said, panting. "I love...you...too." I replied.

"Ohh, fuuuck. Bae, I'm close."

"Me...too! Fuck!" Ry said, as he shot onto my chest.

I moaned out and came inside him once again.

Ry collapsed onto me, limp and panting. "Before you fall asleep, we need to get cleaned up." I said, picking him up and carrying him to the bathroom.

(Y'all are good now.)

Riley POV

I woke up on top of Zed, 'Ughh, what happened?' I thought, 'Oh, yeah.' I remembered. I tried to get up without waking him, but failed as I fell to the floor after my legs gave up on me. "Ow." I said, "You good, Ry?" Zed asked, getting up from his bed. "Mhm, totally." I said, trying to get up again and failing. "Here, I'll help." He said, lifting me up with my arm around his neck. We walked downstairs and Zed sat me down on his couch, "Here, watch some TV while I make us breakfast." He said.

Half an hour later Zed called from the kitchen, "It's ready, Bae.". "I'll be right there." I said back, I tried to get up this time and I didn't fall down, 'Aha! Progress.' I told myself. I walked, slowly, towards the kitchen and sat down at the table. "I see you've recovered." Zed said, chuckling. We ate the delicious pancakes, bacon, and eggs that Zed prepared. "Wow, you're a great cook!" I complemented him, "Thanks, I guess years of making breakfast for Zoey has paid off." He said.

"Hey, since today's a Saturday. Do you wanna, maybe go on a date later?" Zed asked me, "Is that even a question? Of course!" I responded, giving him a kiss on the cheek. I was finishing up my pancakes and then I had an idea, I took some of the whipped cream on my finger and got Zed's attention.

I slowly licked the whipped cream off of my finger, making direct eye contact with him, and gave him a wink before I got up to put my plate in the sink. Before I walked out of the kitchen, I looked over at Zed, who was speechless, and said, "Love you." Then I walked out.

It was now 6:00 so I asked Zed, "Should I start getting ready?". "Sure." He responded. "Okay, then I'll go home and you'll pick me up at what time?" I said, "7:00." He said. "Okay, bye love you.", "See ya in a bit, love you." He said back.

I got home and went to go and take a shower. After, I went back to my room and dried off, I pondered on what I should wear, so I texted Zed to see if I should wear something formal or casual. He responded back saying casual, so I picked out my favorite red sweater, jeans, and s pair of black shoes.

(IDK if this is a good outfit, my fashion sense is horrible, lol.)

"Aww my baby's growing up so fast!" Mom said, walking up to me and giving me a hug. "You look great, Riley." Dad said, giving me a smile. "Thanks, I love you." I said, pulling them both in for a family hug. We all heard a knock at the door, "Have a great night, honey." Mom said.

“Don't come home too late!" Dad said, as I opened the door and stepped outside. "Hey, babe." I said to Zed, giving him a hug. "You look great!" I told him. I wasn't lying, he had on a blue hoodie, black leggings, and a pair of red sneakers.

(Again, my fashion sense is horrible, so idk if that's a good outfit.)

"Although, hoodies are more my thing." I said, teasing him. "Then why aren't you wearing one?" He teased back, "Touché" I responded. "So where are we going?" I asked, "Not telling." Zed said with a smug look on his face. "Pleeeeease?" I said, giving him puppy god eyes. "Nope."

After a while of walking we stood in front of the forbidden forest. "Woah, you sure we should go in here?" I asked, "Nope, but who cares?" Zed said, grabbing my hand and starting to walk. After another few minutes of walking we reached a clearing.

I was amazed since it had a blanket laid out on the floor with a picnic basket in the middle, it was in front of a big tree and that tree was covered in the same type of lights I saw in the zombie light garden. "Wow, when did you have the time to set this up?" I asked, sitting down. "After I got ready, Eliza and Bonzo helped me set this up." Zed said, sitting across from me and opening the basket.

He handed me a ham and cheese sandwich and he took out some cauliflower and started munching. "You just eat raw cauliflower?" I asked, chuckling, "It's the closest thing to brains that we can eat." Zed replied. We finished our respective food and went in for seconds was we cuddled together and watched the sunset. "I'm glad we were able to make this town change." I said, "So now we can be together without everyone freaking out."

“Me, too. I'm glad I met you." Zed said, "Without you I could've never made anyone change.". We looked into each other's eyes and shared a kiss.

"I love you, Ry."

"I love you, Zeddie."

Chapter 9: A Description of Riley Nova Wilson

Hey y'all!

I guess I never really got into detail on how Riley looks.

Riley is black with vitiligo, as you know, he usually wears hoodies. He's 5'8, has green eyes, with medium wavy black hair. He's got his ears pierced and always wears a necklace with a  heart-shaped locket, when opened shows a picture of him and his parents on one side and on the other a picture of him and Zed.

Btw the picture with Zed is a recent thing lol.

I hope this cleared any confusion. If I missed anything y'all wanna know, let me know!

Chapter 10: Werewolves

Riley POV

"You ready for camp?" Mom asked. "Not really, but Besties support besties!" I said, Addie wanted me to come along with her for some support during cheer camp, so of course I'm coming.

I walked out of my house and started walking towards where the bus was gonna pick us up. On my way, I ran into someone. "Ow, oh, uh, sorry, sir." I said, holding out my hand to help him up. "Oh, don't call me that. I'm basically just as old as you are." He said, grabbing my hand and lifting himself up. I noticed I'd never seen him before, I guess he was new on a job or something cause he was wearing some type of work clothes and a hard hat. "Well, I best be going. Have a nice day!" I said, waving and continuing to walk.

I eventually got to the bus stop and saw Addie and Bree. "Hey, girls!" I said, giving them both a hug. "Hi, Riles." Addie responded, "I'm so EXCITED for cheer camp! Oh, I can't wait!" Bree said, enthusiastically. Bonzo came up behind her and said something in zombie. "I just glad I can be with you." I translated, I had been practicing zombie lately to surprise Zed.

Wait. ZED! Oh god, I forgot to say goodbye! "Addie do you know when the bus is coming?" I asked, "In about 20 minutes." She responded. "Okay, I will be right back!" I said, running off to Zombietown.

I got there and check my phone, 'Okay, 17 minutes left.' I got to Zed's place and knocked on the door, a few seconds later his dad opened the door. "Riley! Nice to see ya. Did ya need something from Zed?" He asked, "Yeah, I need to say goodbye, I'm leaving for cheer camp with Addie." I responded. "Well, come in. Knowing Zed he's still asleep. I gotta head to work right now, so just remember to lock the door when you leave." He said. I nodded and walked upstairs and knocked on Zed's door.

"Zeddie, baby?" I said.

"Be right there, Ry." I heard him responded, groggy.

A minute later, he opened the door and lifted me up to hug me. "Did ya need something, Cutie." He said, making me chuckle. "Today's the day I'm leaving for cheer camp with Addie." I said, "I just wanted so say goodbye."

"Oh, right." Zed said, "I'm gonna miss you, love." He said, hugging me tighter. "Don't worry, I'll FaceTime you as soon as I get there!" I said.

"Promise?" He asked.

"Promise." I said, giving him a kiss.

~~~

I ran back up to the bus stop just in time. The bus just arrived and I quickly got on, and grabbed my phone.

Zeddie❤️

Just got on the bus. See you in a few hours!

Okay, love you Ry. I'll be waiting. ❤️

Love you, too ❤️

~~~

I fell asleep pretty early on in the ride and woke to Addie calling my name. "Riles, we're here." "I'm up, I'm up." I said back, standing up and grabbing my bags. We got to the front of the place we were staying at when Bucky said, "Okay, people. We start six o'clock tomorrow!", everyone groaned, "Deal with it." He added.

I got to my room and looked around, 'Way too much pink.' I thought. I set my bags down and pulled my phone out to call Zed.

"Hi, babe." I said.

"Hey Ry. I miss you already." He responded.

"I know, me too."

"So, how's the place so far?"

"Awesome, my rooms pretty big, but almost everything is pink. Yuck."

"I can't be that bad. Pink is a nice color."

"I agree, but there an overwhelming amount of it in this room. Anyway, how's your family and Eliza doing?"

"We're all good. Her and her mom are coming over for dinner tonight."

We stayed talking for about 3 hours before someone knocked on my door. "Riley! Come down to the cafeteria, dinner is ready." I heard Bucky say.

"Be right there, Bucky." I said.

"Buck-hole bothering ya?" Zed asked.

"Nah, he just called me for dinner. I'll see you tomorrow?"

"Yeah, don't worry about calling me early, you know I don't care to be woken up by you, Ry Ry."

I giggled, "Okay, see ya baby."

"See ya, love."

~~~

After dinner I walked back up to my room, exhausted. I almost immediately fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.

~~~

"RISE AND SHINE, SLEEPY HEADS! MEET US DOWNSTAIRS IN FIVE!" Bucky yelled into a microphone. 'What a wonderful way to wake up.' I thought, I texted Addie I was gonna stay in my room for a bit since technically I didn't need to wake up, as I was not a cheerleader. She told me it was fine and I went to FaceTime Zed again.

"Morning, Gar." I said, which meant, "Morning, Love."

"Look at my little bilingual beauty." He said back, "How did ya sleep?"

"Good, you?"

"It was great, knowing you were gonna call me, Ry Ry."

I chuckled.

~~~

Today was the day we all go back to Seabrook, and boy were me and Addie excited.

"I can't wait so see Zed." I said.

"I can't wait so see Liza." Addie said.

Oh yeah, they are officially a thing, it only took months of pestering from Zed and I to make them ask each other out.

~~~

A few minutes later we all got on the bus and everyone was talking about The Prawn. "Jeez, everyone sure is excited for Prawn." I said, "Rightfully so!" Bree stated, "It's gonna be so AWESOME!".

"Has Zed not asked you to go with him?" Addie asked.

"No, why?" I responded.

"Well it is pretty soon, so I though he would've asked you by now." Addie stated.

"Well, I don't care if we do go or not. As long as we can be together that night." I said with a smile on my face.

"Whelp, looks like you're gonna be going." Bree said, pointing ahead.

Zed POV

'Oh this is gonna be great!' I thought, well that was before I heard the bus coming up behind me.

"Uh-oh."

Before I could move the bus rammed into the ladder I was standing on, causing me to fall onto its roof. The bus driver was, appropriately, shook and lost control of the bus, causing it to weave. I tried to grab on to anything, but I managed to slip off the roof, leading me to grab onto a window.

Riley POV

I looked at the window next to me and came face to face with Zed. "Zed!" I yelled, putting my hand on the glass. He placed his hand on the other side, smiling at me, "Hi!". He then lost his grip and fell, 'Shit! I hope he's okay.' I thought.

The bus drove down a random path, shaking violently along the way. It crashed through a fence and finally came to a stop.

"Nothing can happen to me! I'm way too important!" Bucky screamed, jumping out the bus's back door.

"Everyone stay calm." Addie said, standing up.

"Great leadership, Addie." I complemented.

"Very future cheer captain of you." Bree added.

Then I remembered, 'Zed!' I thought, running out as well. I ran where I thought we came from, in hopes of finding Zed. I reached a clearing, then heard some hissing and whispering.

"Who's there?" I asked.

"Zed?"

"Who's there?" I repeated.

"Hello?"

"Can anybody hear me?"

"Zeddie?"

I saw someone scurry along a log, along with hearing some growling. I looked behind me to see someone with brown and white hair. I noticed someone else next to him, then I looked around even more to see I was surround by these people.

I then heard a howl come from behind me, I turned and saw a girl with glowing amber eyes. As soon as I turned back around, all of them were gone. Then I felt someone grab my shoulder, and my fight or flight senses kicked in, I turned around and punched them right in the face.

"Augh!"

"Zed!" I said, giving him a hug.

"I missed you, too." He said, hugging me back.

~~~

"Werewolves are real!" Bucky said, worriedly. "We don't know that for sure, I mean it could've been some cringey, rebellious teens out there." I said, not even believing myself. "Then they are pretty committed to their role play." Bucky said.

"Please can I have one." I heard Zoey say, "I'm the only zombie in my class. A werewolf friend would be great!". "Yeah, werewolves ain't class pets, Zoey. And they certainly ain't friendly." Zevon responded.

"Riley!" I heard my parents calling. "Oh hi guys-", I was cut of by them hugging me, "Are you okay? You aren't hurt are you? Do you need to go to the doctor? You didn't break anything did you?" Mom rambled, "I'm fine, guys." I assured them, as they sat down.

I walked down to go find Addie, I got there in time to hear Bucky say something about how he protected Addie. 'Yeah, right.' I thought, "Mom, Dad, everything is fine." Addie said. "Yeah, we don't know for sure if it was actually werewolves." I added. "It's not fine. There are werewolves circling us right now, waiting to attack!" Her dad said.

"Yeah, and I'm way too tasty. I'm always lookin' like a snack." Bucky said.

I gave him a "What the fuck." look.

"What?"

"It's sad you believe that." I said, under my breath.

"Someone has to do something." Bucky said. "And someone will." Addie's mom, the mayor of Seabrook, said.

She walked up to the podium and repeatedly slammed the gavel. Everyone quieted down and started to pay attention. "By order of city council, effective immediately, all anti-monster laws are reinstated." She announced. "Mom, that is unfair!" Addie yelled.

I then felt a hand snake around my waist, "Bucky, I SWEAR TO-, oh it's you." I said, realizing it was Zed. "We need to talk." I said, "We do." He said back, getting on one knee. "Zed, we're 17." I said. "No! I just wanted to ask if you would go to The Prawn with me." He clarified.

"I would love to, but you heard Mayor Wells anti-monster laws are reinstated now." I said, giving him a peck on the cheek. "I understand, Ry." He said, giving me a hug. "Don't worry, if worst comes to worst, we can just go out on a date." I assured, making him smile.

Chapter 11: Welcome to Seabrook

Wyatt POV

I walked out of the town and back towards the new gap in the fence. 'Oh boy, Willa really messed up.' I thought, as I made my way to the den.

~~~

"He's back. Wolves!" Willa said when she saw me approaching. We all gathered together to make me not look like a human anymore.

"What did you find out?" Willa asked.

"They saw you howling, Willa."

"So?"

"We're exposed." I said, holding up a picture that little girl drew.

Willa scoffed, "Looks nothing like us, Wyatt. We have way better hair than that. Stop being such a worry-wolf, brother. I only said "awoo"! It's like saying "ciao" or "aloha" or "I'll rip your throat out.", Anyway, who cares what they think? It's a terrible town."

"We have to find the Great Alpha."

"If there even is a Great Alpha."

"Willa, we saw her in the forest. She had the white hair."

"It was probably just the light."

"She's real. And she's going to lead us to the moonstone, and you know we don't have much time. More and more of our pack is getting sick. Our necklaces are almost our of power. We need to find the moonstone."

"And when we do, we can recharge our necklaces and stay wolf strong for another 100 years." Winter added.

"Okay, even if the girl is the Great Alpha how do we find her?" Willa asked.

"I found this in the woods. It's hers." I said.

Winter gasped and said, "We'll track her down with our keen sense of smell."

"Says Seabrook High on it. So I thought we might just look there." I said.

Willa groaned, "Okay, fine. We find the girl, and if she's the Great Alpha, she'll tell us where the moonstone is hidden."

"We go in the morning." I suggested.

"We go tonight!" Willa countered.

"Or tonight works."

~~~

Luckily the school had no locks, so we were able to just walk right in. "We'll hide here, find the girl, get our moonstone, and leave this awful place." Willa said, gesturing to a vent. "I wouldn't call it awful." I said. "They got something called Fro-Yo." Willa gave me a look and my smile faded. "Yeah, you're right. This town's the worst." I agreed.

~~~

Riley POV

"So, what do you wanna do on Prawn night, Zeddie?" I asked.

"Ry, I'm not giving up just yet. I'll find a way to get us to the Prawn." Zed responded.

"Or we could just do something else that's just as fun." I said, giving him a seductive look, making him turn red.

"Ry, you do that too good." He said.

"I know." I replied, kissing his cheek. "See ya at Buck-hole's presidential election."

~~~

After Bucky made his oh so extravagant entry he started giving his dumb speech, "Great news, we have a brilliant and cheer tested candidate running for president this year. Me!".

"I'm running against Bucky for president." Zed said, into my ear. "But I need to one-up his entrance.", "How?" I asked. Suddenly, Bonzo was distracted and accidentally pushed Zed with his Trombone or whatever it was.

He bounced down the bleachers and landed behind Bucky, "You okay?" I yelled down, he gave me a thumbs up and pushed Bucky to the side. "Zombie strong!" He yelled, "Hello everyone! My name is Zed, and I am running for president.", almost everyone cheered.

"Okay." Zed said, "If you vote for me, I will bring you prosperity and awesomeness!", the crowed then cheered and started to chant his name. 'You are fucking crazy, Zed Necrodopolis.'

"As your president, I will make Seabrook a place that embraces zombies and-"

"Werewolves?!" Someone said.

"Uh, no. Why would we want...Werewolves!" Zed screamed, pointing at the doors. Everyone turned to look, as the werewolves barged in. I ran down the bleachers to try and get to Zed, I found him and gave him a hug.

"You okay, Ry Ry?" He said.

"Mhm." I assured. I turned around and say the werewolves looking like they were after Addie. "Addie!" I yelled, Zed then yelled to his football team, "Defense, Z-24!". The football team surrounded Addie, "Thank you, Zeddie." I said, giving him another hug.

"Where's the moonstone, white hair?" One of the wolves asked.

"I think you've got the wrong person." Addie responded.

"Our razor sharp claws will gut 'em and splatter their blood!" Another wolf said.

Everyone screamed and cowered.

"Too much?" She asked.

One wolf nodded and said, "Wolves! On my command!".

'Hey, that's the one I saw howling.' I thought.

A, very attractive, wolf then whispered something into her ear.

"Ugh, I hate it when you're right." She said. "Wolves! Stand down."

"Okay." Zed said

"Sorry," The wolf continued, "We werewolves so admire your town, and we just came here to join your school."

"What?! They can't join our school." Bucky said.

"Technically the Forbidden Forest is within the school district." Coach said.

"So, welcome to Seabrook!" Me and Addie said in unison.

The werewolves all awkwardly laughed.

~~~

"Zed for prez! Vote Zed for prez, because I'm a zombie, not a zom-can't-be.", "You're so fucking corny." I said, giggling. "Okay, here's the plan." Eliza said, "We fight for zombie toppings on pizza in the cafeteria.", "Right." Zed responded. "Get zombie tongue taught as a second language." She continued, "Good." Zed replied. "And how to overthrow your oppressors after school club." She said, "Eliza." Addie said, giving her a look.

"Sorry, right. Don't over promise." She said. "But more importantly, we allow zombies at Prawn." Zed said, looking at me. I don't know why Zed wanted to go to Prawn so badly, but I wasn't gonna go complaining. "Good luck, Mr. Future President." I replied.

"Guys!" Bree yelled, running towards us. "Did you hear? Addie's being tested for captain and she gets to run cheer practice tomorrow!". "Wow, congrats, Babe!" Eliza said, giving her a kiss. "Yeah, way to go Addie!" I said, hugging her. "It's not a big deal." Addie said, Bree then gave her a shocked expression, "Okay, it's huge!" She admitted.

"A huge chance to fail!" Lacey yelled from afar, I flipped her off and said, "Don't listen to her Addie, you've got this!" I assured. "If Addie aces this practice, oh my gosh, she's so going to be cheer captain once Bucky wins." Bree said, "He's so gonna win, because y'know, elections, they're just like these big old popularity contests, and Bucky is super popular.".

Zed cleared his throat. "So...what?" Bree asked, confused. "Thanks, Bree." Zed said. She finally realized what she said, closed her mouth, and looked in another direction. "I know it's weird I'll only be cheer captain if Bucky's president, but..." Addie began, before getting cut off, "No, that just means neither of us can lose, because one of us is going to get what we want. And I can live with that." Zed said, although I could hear a smidge of doubt in his voice. "You'll do great, Zed." Addie responded.

~~~

Wyatt POV

"These sheep just let us in?" Willa said, "Baaaad idea.", "We agreed to play nice." I replied, "Ph, this is me being nice." Willa said, before dragging her claws across several lockers. "Now let's find that moonstone."

Riley POV

I walked down the hall and spotted a werewolf looking at a water fountain, confused. I walked up to her and said, "Ya need help?", "O-oh, uh, sure." She replied. I pushed the button and water spurted out. "Woah. Cool!" She said, with a wide grin. "I'm Riley by the way, Riley Wilson." I said, holding up my hand, she took it and said, "I'm Wynter, Wynter Barkowitz.".

~~~

I walked into the library, ready to read part two of a book series I'm into, when I spotted Bree. 'I barely talk to her, might as well do it now!' I thought, walking up to her new sitting don at her table. "Hi, Bree!" I said, "Hi Riley." She said back, "Whatcha reading?" I asked. "Oh, this is 'A Series of Unfortunate Events'." She replied, "No way! I just started reading it! I was just about to check out book two." I said, "Really? Wow. I've never met someone who read was also interested in these!" She said.

We talked about it for a while, of course I was making her shut up when she was about to tell a spoiler, and then I spot another werewolf. He was trying to make it look as if he was reading, while he was actually watching Addie. "Gimmie a sec, will ya?" I told Bree, she nodded so I walked up to him.

"You know you're holding that upside-down, right?" I said.

"Huh, oh, uh, th-thanks." He said, turning the book.

"My name's Riley, what's yours?" I asked.

"Um...Wyatt." He said, looking nervous.

"Okay, I'll see you around, I guess, bye!" I said, walking back to Bree.

"You realize he's 100% crushing on you, right?" Bree said, as I sat down.

"What? No. Girl, your crazy." I said back.

"Alright, just saying." Bree said, looking back down at her binder.

I pulled out my phone, forgetting the main reason I was there, and scrolled through TikTok. Then, I heard paper ripping and Bree saying, "Hey! That dog just ate my homework!", "Wha- oh, hi Wynter." I said, looking up. "Hello, Riley." She replied, as Addie sat down next to me. "Hi, I'm Addison." She said, looking at Wynter. "I'm, uh, Wynter." She said.

Suddenly, a book was slammed down onto the table by the same wolf I saw howling. "Lies!" She said, "These history books claim werewolves attacked Seabrook settlers, but they struck first and stole our moonstone!".

"First of all, this is a library so please, keep your voice down." I said, "And second of all, we had no way of knowing that, sorry.", "There's a lot you don't know." She replied, before walking away with some books in her arms. "I know the alarm's gonna go off, if you don't check out those books." I said.

She then took off her necklace and threw it at the machine, breaking it. "Our necklaces have a way with electronics." Wyatt whispered into my ear, sending shivers down my spine.

Chapter 12: Jealousy⚠️❤️

Riley POV

"Win the wolves' vote, win the election. Easy." Zed said, as me, Zoey, and Eliza walked with him. "Hello wolves. Allow me to introduce myself." Zed said, holding out his hand. No one took it, so he awkwardly put it back down.

"I'm Zed, zombie, football star, presidential hopeful." He said.

"When zombies first came to Seabrook we were outsiders, too." Eliza said. "Which is why you need a great president like Zed to represent you."

"Our pack is our pack." Wynter spoke, "We don't need anyone else, so..."

"Who doesn't want more friends? Underneath all that fluffy hair, I bet you're a real softie." Zoey said.

"I am a mean, mean werewolf, kid." Wynter said, kneeling to her level, "I am tough and rough."

"Aww! You said "ruff.", like a little puppy dog." Zoey said, with a smile.

"We are beats of the forest, we will never be tamed." Wynter responded.

Zoey then started to scratch behind Wynter's ear, which apparently causes the same reaction as when dogs get the behinds of their ears scratched. Wynter then got a stern look from the wolf I saw howling earlier and pushed Zoey's arm away.

"We're nothing like you zombies." The wolf I saw howling said, okay I'm tired of referring to her as that. "What's your name?" I asked her, "Huh?" She replied, "Your name. I never got it." I said. "Willa." She said, "I'm Riley, nice to meet you." I said, giving her a smile.

"You sort of are like us." Eliza said, "Your necklace is powered, right? Kind of like an organic Z-Band."

"Your smarter than he looks." Willa said, making me snicker.

Zed's smile faded, then he looked at me. "Sorry." I mumbled.

"Thanks." Eliza said.

"That necklace keeps you from fully wolfing out?" Zed asked, reaching for it.

Willa slapped his hand away, "The opposite."

"Our moonstones make us our true werewolf selves."

"So without it you'd be human?"

"No, we'd die. We'd be nothing."

"Imagine how alive you'd feel if you didn't have to tamp things down. Hold, back your true selves." Wyatt chimed in.

"Actually, I've got this theory that zombies might've evolved beyond their needs fro Z-Bands." Eliza said.

"Z-Bands are great. They help you fit in." Zed said. 'Since when did you care for fitting in?' I thought.

~~~

One song later and I really don't think Zed's brain is in the right place. "Zeddie, can I talk to you? Alone." I asked, "Sure." He said, following me.

"Listen...I really don't think forcing them to be like zombies or humans is really the way to go." I said, looking up at him. "Ry, I'm not forcing them, just recommending a few things." He said, "Are you sure? Cause it sure seemed like you were telling them how to act." I said, slightly raising my voice.

"For fuck's sake, Zed, you of all people should know how it feels to be different and others wanna make you, 'normal.'!" I said. I got a text from my mom calling me home for dinner. "Look, just, think about what I said, I gotta go, I'll see you tomorrow." I said, walking away after giving him a kiss on his cheek.

~~~

I sat down on the bleachers and pulled out my phone as Addie, Bree, and the rest of the cheer team, got ready. I zoned out for a bit and realized there were people sitting down next to me. I turned to look and saw the werewolves looking back at me.

"Oh! Sorry, y'all startled me." I said, "Welcome to cheer practice. I'm sure everyone would love to have a bigger audience."

They nodded and looked at the cheerleaders.

"Sorry, but this practice space is for cheerleaders only." Addie said.

"Ha! Just try and get us to leave." Wynter said.

"Wynter. Some respect." Wyatt said.

"No, I don't want you to leave. I want you to stay. Show us what you can do. The cheer team is for everyone. That includes you, Riles." Addie said.

I reluctantly got up and join everyone at the gym floor.

~~~

After our little cheer session, I got to admit I was pretty fired up. "You were great." I said, giving Wyatt a hug. "So were you." Addie said, referring to Willa. I then felt a pair of eyes on me, so I turned and made eye contact with Zed, who walked out as soon as I looked at him.

I ran out after him, "Zed." I said.

"What's wrong, babe?"

"Werewolves." He replied, "They're not interested in fitting in."

"They're into cheer."

"No, they're into you, and your into him-them."

'Oh, I see what's happening.'

"Zed Necrodopolis are you, jealous?" I said, teasingly. As soon as those words left my mouth, Zed picked me up, bridal style, carried me into the bathroom and into a stall.

⚠️Smut Warning⚠️

He pinned me up against the door, roughly pushing his lips onto mine. I wrapped my arms over his neck as Zed grabbed my waist so I wrapped my legs around him. I felt him lick my bottom lip and I opened my mouth to give him access. After a few minutes, we pulled away for air and Zed started to work on my neck.

I covered my mouth just in case someone outside heard me. I moaned loudly into my hand as Zed started to abuse my weak spot. "Zed. What if we get caught?" I asked, "I. Don't. Care." He said, slightly angry. Wow, he was more jealous than I thought.

He pulled down his pants and boxers, "Suck." He ordered. I got my knees and Zed sat on the toilet, I licked his tip before shoving all nine inches in my mouth, causing Zed to expel a loud moan. I bobbed my head up and down until I felt Zed put his hand on my head and shove me down as he came down my throat.

"Zed, what the hell was that?" I whisper-yelled, "Shit, I-I'm sorry, Ry, I let my emotions get the better of me." He said. "I didn't mean it in a bad way, I'm just surprised, since your always pretty gentle." I said. "Then I'll show you that I can be rough." He said, lifting me up. I pulled down my pants and boxers. Zed pinned me to the door again, only this time I wasn't facing him. I felt his chest on my back as he aligned himself.

"Fuck me senseless, Daddy."

He slammed into me and I didn't care that I let out a very loud moan. Zed started to go in and out as I felt my legs give up on me. He wrapped his arms around my torso to keep me balanced and leaned in to whisper something into my ear.

"Who's your daddy?"

"Y-you are."

"That's right, you belong to me and me only."

"F-fuck yeah, I d-do daddy."

After a few more thrusts I came all over the door and Zed shot into me. We were both panting excessively, riding out our highs.

"I-I love you, Ry Ry."

"I love you too, Zeddie."

Chapter 13: Addie’s an Alpha?

Riley POV

As we cleaned ourselves, and the door, up I decided to continue the conversation we were having earlier. "Zeddie, why were you acting like that earlier?" I asked, as we walked out of the bathroom. "It's just...it was really difficult for zombies when we first joined the school, a-and now everything is just being handed to the werewolves on a silver platter." The pale male responded.

"Actually, they hate silver." I corrected.

"Look, I was just trying to win an election for my people, for you. So we can go to prawn together, so we can be accepted."

"I understand, however it doesn't mean you can blame them. All they wanted was to join us."

"I know, I know, I was just jealous, since...I mean...j-just look at Wyatt! How am I supposed to compete with someone who's been living in the woods their whole life and looks like that!"

"You have a point there, but just because I think someone is attractive doesn't mean I'm gonna leave you for them, babe." I said, plating a kiss on his cheek.

"I'm sorry."

"For?"

"For not trusting you." He said, planting a kiss on my forehead.

"I forgive you, hun. Just remember you don't have to pretend to be someone you're not." I said, pointing at a poster that had Zed looking like a human.

~~~

I got home and check my phone, realizing Addie texted me.

Ry, can you come over? I really need someone to talk to.

Yeah, sure. I'll be right over.

"Mom! Dad! I'm gonna go over to Addie's house!" I yelled, walking out the door. I arrived to Addie's house and locked on the door. "Oh, hello Riley." Mrs.Wells said, opening up the door. "I assume you're here to see Addison?" She asked. "Yup." I answered

I walked up to Addie's room and knocked. "I'm here." She opens up the door and quickly pulled me inside.

"So, what happened? Why'd you need me to come over?"

"Eliza and I...got into a fight."

"Oh no, Addie." I said, wrapping her in a warm embrace. "Why? What happened?"

"She saw me give Willa a hug, and I guess she was jealous."

I'm not the best at comforting, so I had no idea what to say. So I settled to just keep hugging her and let her tears soak up my favorite hoodie.

~~~

"Ugh, I really don't understand thiiiiss!" Addie complained, talking about her homework. "Hey, don't look at me! I'm barely passing Chemistry." I said back. "I'll text Bree, she knows way more about Chemistry than you and I do." Addie said, picking up her phone.

All of the sudden we both heard a scraping sound coming from outside. "What the?" I said, confused as to what it was. Addie and I looked at each other before walking downstairs and slowly approaching the door. I finally had the guts to open it up and saw...nothing, until I looked at the door and realized there were claw marks on it. "Werewolves." We both said.

"Come out. We know your here." I said.

The wolves all appeared out of their hiding spots. "Come with us." Wyatt spoke. "What's so important?" Addie asked. "You are." He responded.

"If your going, I'm going." I said to Addie. "Alright, we'll go." Addie said.

~~~

"Where are we going?" Addie asked, as we walked through the forest. "It's a wolf secret." Wynter replied, "If we told you, we'd have to kill you,". Wyatt and Willa gave her a cold stare. "Too much. Too much. I knew it. Sorry." Wynter said. "Welcome! But not too welcome!" She added, before she started to cough.

"Are you okay?" I asked, putting my hands on her shoulders. "My necklace is losing its charge." She said to me.

"Every day, more and more of our pack becomes sick." Wyatt explained, "Because their moonstones lose their power. All of our elders are too sick to travel, which leaves..."

"Which leaves taking care of our pack to us." Willa interrupted. "To me." Willa walked up to Wynter, "You'll be fine, Wynter. I promise,". Willa then looked at Wyatt and said, "You'd better be right about this. We need to find the moonstone soon." Her and Wynter then walked off.

"Follow us, you two." Wyatt said, "Please."

Zed POV

"You guys! I have to go apologize to Addison right now." Eliza said, running up to us. "Gruzah." Bonzo said, "Yeah I know, I want to see it too." I agreed.

"Attention citizens. All curfews will be strictly enforced." A guy in a car said, driving by. "Zagarato." Bonzo said. "Yeah, it's gonna be nearly impossible to get past the Z-Patrol, Liza." I said.

"Hey guys!" Bree said, running up to us. "And yet somehow Bree just did." Eliza said. "Have you guys seen Addie? She texted me for help, but she's not home and she not answering her phone!" Bree said. "Oh...hey Bonzo." She added.

"You guys, focus!" Eliza said, "Addie needs help. If her phone is on, I can track her."

"That's kinda creepy, but effective." I said.

Eliza pulled out her tablet and opened up an app. A dot showed up on a map, which I assumed was where Addison was, "She's in the forbidden forest." I said, eyes widened. "The wolves. They kidnapped her." Eliza said, noticeably angry. "We have to help Addie!" She said running off.

~~~

Riley POV

The wolves brought us into a cave, which was really beautiful. "The wolf den!" Wynter announced.

"This place is cool!" I said, "It's like something out of a movie."

"It's okay to be impressed." Wynter said.

"Our language." Wyatt said, before howling, "That's means welcome."

Addie then tried to mimic that howl, causing all the wolves to laugh. "Ostrich Boots?" Wynter said, confused. "No, I think Addison meant..." Wyatt responded before howling again. Addie then tried to mimic that howl again. "Polka dot unicorn?" Wyatt said, "Cool, where?" Wynter asked. Addie then tried to howl one last time.

"Woah, woah, language!" Wyatt said, "There are were-pups around,". "She needs to put a pebble in the swear-wolf jar." Wynter stated. Then all of the wolves started to howl, "I am so sorry." Addie replied.

"Enough." Willa said, "This is not why we brought her here,"

"Why did you need Addie, anyway?" I asked.

Wyatt picked up a crystal and held it up, when he did it started to display something on a nearby wall.

It showed a person with white hair howling.

Addie and I looked at each other with wide eyes. "That looks suspiciously like you, Addie." I said.

"I believe you will lead us to the moonstone. I believe you're the Great Alpha. I believe you're a werewolf!" Wyatt said.

"What?" Me and Addie both said.

I then started to hear music staring up, 'Nope. Not sticking around for this.' I thought, and walked out. 'I'll go back in once their done singing.'

I sat down in front of the cave and looked up at the moon, "Pretty, right?" A voice from behind me said. I turned around to see Wyatt walking up to me. "Aren't you supposed to be singing right now?" I asked, "I handed the job over to Wynter, I'm kinda tired tonight." He responded, sitting down beside me.

"So, uh...how's school been for you?" I asked. "Oh, it's been great. I've been wanting to join a club, although I don't know which one to join, there are many good options." Wyatt replied. "Yeah, been there." I said, not knowing what else to say.

I felt him inch a bit closer to me. "Hey, what even is a Great Alpha?" I questioned. "Someone who is supposed to help our pack find the moonstone and help lead our pack to be the greatest it can be." He said.

I looked back up towards the moon, "The moon is really beautiful tonight," I said. "I can think of something...more beautiful." Wyatt said, before leaning in. I scooted away from him and said, "Woah! Sorry...I have a boyfriend,". "O-oh...I'm so sorry, I swear I didn't know!" He said, frantically.

"It's okay, there's no way you could've," I said, trying to comfort him. "May I ask who is it that you are dating?" Wyatt asked. "Zed." I answered, that made Wyatt look confused. "That jerk? You're dating him?" He said.

"I know he didn't make a very good impression the first time y'all met, but I assure you, he's a good person once you get to know him." I said.

"Well, he is handsome, so I get why you stick around." Wyatt joked, making me giggle.

Suddenly we heard a ruckus come from inside the den. We looked at each other with wide eyes and ran back in.

When we got in we saw Eliza standing in front of Addison, looking very angry. 'Oh, shit. Her Z-Band is off!' I realized. I look around the floor, frantically trying to see if I could spot it. "No, stop!" Addie yelled to Eliza, who wasn't listening as she kept roaring at all the wolves.

Addie then spotted the Z-Band and snapped it onto Eliza's wrist again. "Eliza! I want to be here." Addie said to her, after she calmed down. "What?" Bree said, walking up, "But...but you text me for help!". "I needed help with my chemistry homework," Addie said, "Didn't you see the beaker emoji?"

"Oh...I do now." Bree replied, awkwardly, "By the way I love your new look. New hairstylist?". "Werewolves, they know hair," Addie said. "And manicures." Wynter added, making the whole pack nod in agreement.

Then, Zed walked up to me. "Hi, Ry Ry." He said, lifting me up and giving me a kiss.

"Hi, baby." I said nuzzling him. Then, Zed noticed Wyatt and put me down. "Hey...look I'm sorry for, well, y'know trying to make y'all change." He said to Wyatt, who looked surprised at his words. "So, can we start over?" Zed asked, holding out his hand. Wyatt stood there for a second seemingly pondering and looking a little...flustered? Wyatt then took his hand and said, "Of course!"

"They think I may be a werewolf too." I heard Addie say to Eliza. "What! How?" Eliza questioned, "Maybe a grandparent. My hair means something. This could be my pack." Addie said.

"For centuries, this has been set aside for the Great Alpha." Willa said, opening up a box with a moonstone necklace inside, "A fully charged moonstone is priceless to us, Addison. If you're truly one of us, when you put it on, you'll be transformed into a werewolf. Part of our pack, forever."

"What? No! Wait." Eliza exclaimed. "Can I think about it?" Addie replied. Willa paused for a bit before saying, "For a day." and handing Addie the box.

"Once you've joined us you can lead us to the moonstone." Wyatt said.

"But she doesn't know where it is." Wynter said.

Suddenly, the cave started to shake. 'What the hell is happening?'

Everyone panicked as the rumbling became louder and more violent. We all ran up some stairs and onto an opening higher up in the cave. We stared at the power plant, which seemed to be where the rumbling was coming from.

"The explosion came from Seabrook Power." said Zed.

"They must be testing charges fro the demolition tomorrow." Addie explained.

"Seabrook power is the birthplace of zombies." Eliza said.

"A little lime soda mixed with some mysterious energy, and bang! Zombies." Zed explained.

"Nice story," Willa replied, "But it doesn't concern us."

"But it does concern you, Willa." Addie spoke, "Seabrook Power was fueled by a mysterious energy source. That could be your moonstone, right?"

"She found the moonstone." Wyatt said to Willa, "She's amazing,". Eliza starred daggers at him, but he didn't seem to notice.

"If she's right. Wow." Wyatt added. "We'll see you at school tomorrow, Addison." Willa said.

"Okay. Tomorrow. Big day." Addie replied. And with that, we walked back out of the den.

Chapter 14: Flesh and Bone

Riley POV

"It's Election Day, Seabrook!" Principal Lee said over the intercom, "We have an assembly to hear from our presidential candidates, and it is going to be so good to see you all."

As me and Addie walked down the hall everyone looked at us...well mostly Addie, but you get the point, they were staring, okay? Anyways, it seemed like everyone was talking about Addie's new look. We then walked past the ACEYs, and they were not happy.

"Woah! Bad hair day?" Lacey commented.

"Bad hair life?" Stacy added.

"I think it looks great!" I responded, giving them a death stare.

"Yeah, not so much." JC said, as they all snapped their fingers.

"Addison, if you ever expect to be cheer captain-" Lacey started, before Addie cut her off.

"Well, maybe I don't. Maybe cheer team isn't for me after all."

The three of them gasped and walked away with shocked expressions on their faces. Before JC walked off he handed me a piece of paper. It read, "Call me ❤️" with his phone number next to it. 'Oh, please.' I thought before I crumbled it up and threw it into the trash, making sure he saw me do it.

"Addie!" We heard a voice call. We turned around to see Eliza running up to us. "I was up all night thinking!" She said, "You're not a werewolf, you can't be."

'Oh boy.'

"But I love midnight strolls." Addie responded.

"Yeah, you like sunsets too. That doesn't mean you're a vampire." Eliza said back.

"Liza..."

"Look. It's really hard being considered a monster. Trust me. Many people here just barely accept us."

"All I've ever wanted is to find my pack. And now I finally have." Addie said, lifting up the box containing the necklace, opening it, and handing it to Eliza.

"When I see the wolves, I'm going to put this on." She explained, "And tell Zed I can't make the debate, I need to find the wolves."

Addie gave Eliza a hug and then she walked off to find the wolves.

'Oh, she forgot her necklace.'

I took the box back from Eliza and called out for Addie. "You forgot this!" I yelled, waving the box.

She ran back to me and took the box back. "Thanks, Ry." She said, departing after giving me a kiss on the cheek.

~~~

Zed POV

Eliza seemed really nervous as we walked towards the gym, "You good?" I asked, "Your more nervous than I am." I joked.

"I'm fine." She replied, faking a smile. I decided not to bug her about and pushed open the doors to the gym, not prepared for what I was about to see. 'That bastard!' I thought, as I saw what Bucky did.

The fucker replaced my posters with ones of me zombied out and words that read, "Monster? Zed 4 Prez. You for dinner?". "Wow. How petty can someone be?!" Eliza exclaimed. "I won't let this get to me. I mean, hey, if he thinks this is necessary, then he must think I'm a threat to his success." I said, trying to remain hopeful.

~~~

Wyatt POV

"Alright, we don't have much time." I said, looking at some blue prints, "This is how sabotage the demolition and stop them,". "It's my responsibility to make sure we're all safe." Willa said, "We follow my lead."

"It's a good plan, Willa." I responded. "What plan?" Addison asked, walking up behind us. "We're going after the moonstone. Top secret. You can't tell anyone." Wynter answered. 'So much for that.' I thought.

"Bad wolf, bad wolf!" Wynter said, realizing her mistake. "You're going after the moonstone now?" Addison asked. "It won't survive the demolition." I explained.

"Then let me join you." Addison requested, "I'm ready to become a wolf!"

"If you really are one." Willa said.

Addison took out the box we gave her and opened it up, her smile fading. "It's gone." She said. "You lost it?" Wynter said, distraught. "Do you know how precious a moonstone necklace is?" Willa exclaimed, agitated.

"If she was serious about being a wolf," Willa continued, "if she was the Great Alpha, she wouldn't have been so careless!"

"No, I-I don't know how! I-" Addison started to protest before Willa cut her off. "Stay out of our amazing hair!"

~~~

Zed POV

"Okay, seriously, something is definitely wrong with you." I told Eliza, noticing how her nervousness seemed to multiply.

"I stole Addie's necklace!" She blurted out. "You what?!" I said, "Why? Can you really not let her try to feel like she belongs somewhere?".

"I know, I know, I feel like a piece of shit right now..." Eliza said. "Give me the necklace." I said, not realizing the mistake I was about to make. She gave it to me and I put it in my shirt pocket. "After we are done here, we are going to find Addison, and you are going to apologize." I stated, giving her a glare. "O-okay." She replied.

"Zeddie!" I heard someone call. I turned to see Ry Ry running up to me. As soon as he got to me he gave me a kiss and told me, "Good luck, baby."

~~~

Riley POV

"Vote for me, because I swear I'm no monster." Zed said, reaching into his shirt.

'I'm so proud of you, baby.'

Then Zed retracted his arm back and looked at his Z-Band, 'Oh no.'

Zed veins grew and turned a deep purple as the bags around his eyes spread. He let out a roar and everyone started to freak out. "See! See! He is a monster!" Bucky yelled, victoriously. I ran down the bleachers as everyone else started to exit the gymnasium. "I can't let them see me as a monster!" Zed exclaimed in a distorted voice. "Breathe. Focus. Okay? You can control this, bae." I said, holding his hand.

Zed looked at me for a while, calming down a bit. I looked down at his Z-Band and saw Addie's necklace attached to it. I was confused for a bit, "Our necklaces have a way with electronics.", Wyatt's words echoed through my head. I yanked it off and Zed returned back to normal.

"Are you okay, huh?" I asked, giving him a very tight hug. "I'm good, Ry Ry." Zed replied, strained. I let go and we both turned to look at the, now frightened, crowd. Zed ran away in embarrassment as Bucky watched with a smirk. I couldn't take his narcissistic attitude anymore, so before I ran after Zed, I kicked Bucky right where it hurts. "Fuck. You." I said, turning to run after Zed.

"Zeddie, hold on."

"I lost the election."

"Maybe."

He gave me a serious look.

"Probably...Yeah, you did." I replied, defeated.

Eliza ran up to us. "I am so sorry!" She said, tearing up, "This is all my fault!"

"What are you talking about?" I asked her.

"I took Addie's necklace...and Zed took it from me to keep it safe...and...and you know the rest." She said, looking down. "I would be more mad at you, but we have bigger problems right now." I responded, "We need to find Addie and give this back."

~~~

Wyatt POV

We all ran into the factory, and heard an alarm blasting. "We triggered the alarm, hurry!" Willa said. We all got to a larger space and then lights were shone upon us.

"Wolves, freeze where you are!" Addison's dad yelled. We responded by snarling and baring out teeth.

Riley POV

I ran down the halls, Zed and Eliza right behind me, and spotted Addie and Bree talking. "Addie!" I said, running up to her. "Hi, Ry." She responded, glumly. "This is because you lost your necklace, right?" I assumed.

"How did you-" Addie began to say, before the Z-Alarm rang.

"Attention! Monster activity at Seabrook Power!" The alarm warned.

"It's the werewolves. We need to help them!" Addie said, "Would you all help?".

"100% , Addie! We got your back!" I said. "We can't do this alone, we're gonna need everyone!" Addie said.

~~~

Wyatt POV

"You're trespassing, werewolves!" Addison's dad informed us.

"How can we be trespassing on our own land?" I asked.

"This is werewolf territory!" Wynter exclaimed.

"I don't know anything about that." Addison's dad replied.

"We can take them." Willa said, as we all activated our moonstones.

3rd Person

Willa

Hear it getting louder
A call for revolution, yeah
We came for what was ours
It's time for restitution

We'll protect our own
Take back the stone
No human nature
Cannot hold us down

Wyatt

Stranded at the bottom
But we're more than a whisper
No, we'll never be forgotten
Our bloods thicker than silver, yeah

Wyatt, Willa

This is a declaration
Oh~
Of a new generation

It's now or never
We're in this together
We'll fight through the highs and the lows
No we won't break
We're more than flesh and bone

"Arrest them!" Dale ordered.

Police officers then started to fill the room with some gas, making all the werewolves cough. "Colloidal silver. That'll tames those beasts." Dale said.

"Demo time! Everybody clear out!" Zevon commanded.

"I failed you." Willa said, "They'll destroy the moonstone. They'll destroy us,".

"No!" A voice echoed through the building.

"Addison?" Zevon and Dale questioned.

Addison, Riley

The world has gone crazy
And no one seems to listen
Gotta step in, no more maybes
And stop the demolition

Is it hope or fear
Look in the mirror
Everything we've built is coming down

Zed

No more hesitation
It's time we start to realize
With all this separation
Silence is still takin sides

So use your voice
Make a choice
And tell me, are you standing with the crowd?

Zombies, Humans

Oh~
This is a declaration
Oh~
Of a new generation

It's now or never
We're in this together
We'll fight through the highs and the lows
No we won't break
We're more than flesh and bone

Eliza, Zed

History changes
But we lost the pages we wrote
When you lose direction
Can't see the reflection
You know

We came from the bottom
Then became the problem
Now everything's out of control
So hey, are you with us?
Let's go!

Zombies, Humans

Oh~
This is a declaration
Oh~
Of a new generation

It's now or never
We're in this together
We'll fight through the highs and the lows

No we won't break
We're more than flesh and bone

Riley POV

Zed walked up to his dad. "You gotta stop the demolition, Dad." He said, "I know how hard you worked to get this job. But if it's gonna hurt the werewolves, you have to stop it."

"You're right." His dad responded, "And everyone's right. Shut it down. Top the detonation."

"Yes!" I whisper-yelled, walking up to Willa, Wyatt, and Wynter to give them a group hug.

"What are you doing?" Willa protested, trying to shake me off.

I shushed her, "Accept it."

"Tomorrow, when it's safe." Zed's dad said, "We'll find what you're looking for. But right now you can all go home."

We all cheered, and I ran up to Zed to give him a kiss, "We did it, babe!". "We sure did!" He replied, spinning me around. After all the celebration, we all walked out of the power plant. I turned to Eliza and gave her Addie's necklace. "It's time, pray she won't hate you too much." I said to her. She nodded and went to go confess to Addie.

"What's wrong?" Addie asked, noticing how guilt Eliza looked.

"Addie, I...I...need to tell you something." Eliza said, holding up Addie's necklace.

"She found it!" Addie exclaimed, pulling Eliza into a hug. "Thank you."

Addie noticed Eliza wasn't smiling.

"What?"

"I took it."

Addie's face fell.

"I stole it when you forgot to take your box back."

"I-I thought I lost it. I questioned myself!"

"Addison, I'm sorry. I was afraid that if you turned into a wolf, I'd lose you."

"You don't get to make that choice for me!"

"But a werewolf?"

"I finally found where I belong, and you try to steal that from me? Why would I ever go to the Prawn with you after what you did?"

Addie walked away from Eliza to put on her necklace.

"Even though you royaly fucked up," I said, patting Eliza's shoulders, "She'll come around eventually."

We all watched as Addie tied the necklace around her neck and turned around with her hands held up, mimicking a werewolf. However, nothing happened. "Am I?" Addie asked Bree and I.

"You're beautiful, Addie." We both responded.

"But your the same beautiful that you've always been." Bree added.

"She's not a werewolf." Wyatt said. Willa gave him a stern look and he looked away awkwardly. "Oh fuck, boss, boss! We got a problem!" An employee said to Zevon. "What?" He responded.

"The remote shorted out, and the detonation timer's runnin'!" The employee responded. "Well shut it off!" Zevon ordered.

"I can't!"

"No, no!" Zevon said, running to see the power plant. We all ran after him, in time to see the entire building explode. All of the sudden the wolves all began to cough, their moonstones turning green.

"Are you all okay?" I asked, walking up to Willa, Wynter, and Wyatt. "Not so good, Riley." Wynter responded.

Chapter 15: The Prawn⚠️❤️

Riley POV

"The center of Zombie and Werewolf culture is in rubble, and I still don't have a pack." Addie said to me as we walked to school. Again, I'm horrible at comforting people, so I just gave Addie a kiss on her cheek and told her, "You'll always have me and everyone else, we all love and support you no matter what." "Thanks, Riley." She replied, pulling me into a hug.

~~~

The next night Zed and I headed towards the wolf den. When we got there we saw the state that the wolves were in, they looked very ill and tired. Zed and I spotted Wyatt and Willa helping out some of the other wolves.

"They were wrong to destroy Seabrook power," Zed said, as we walked up to them, "And I was wrong about werewolves. You have every right to fight for who you are."

"Yeah, but what are we now?" Wyatt asked.

"You're fierce, proud werewolves!" I said.

"Yeah, they think we're monsters." Willa replied.

"We are monsters." Zed said back. Wyatt and Willa gave each other a confused glance.

~~~

Zed POV

As Zombies and Werewolves, and Ry Ry too, strolled up to the Prawn all dressed up, Bucky was not happy.

"You guys can't be here! There are laws against this!" Bucky protested.

"Bad laws are meant to be broken." I replied.

"And monsters don't follow the rules." Eliza said, as she gave me a high-five, "Zombies and Werewolves are part of Seabrook, Bucky, and we deserve to be here.”

"We're the originals, in fact." Wyatt said, with a smirk.

"Someone's gotta stop you." Bucky responded, reaching to set off the Z-Alert.

"I strongly suggest you don't do that, unless you want a repeat of what happened at your election." Ry Ry threatened.

"W-welcome to Prawn." Bucky stammered.

Before Riley and I could walk into the building we both felt tugs on our arms. "Hey...could I talk to both of you for a second?" Wyatt asked, and Riley and I nodded. We let everyone else walk past us and into the building.

"What is it you wanted to talk about, Wyatt?" I asked.

"L-look, the th-thing is...I..." Wyatt stammered. "Take your time." Riley said.

"Ilikebothofyou!" Wyatt exclaimed, quickly. "Could you repeat that?" I asked. "Yeah, we didn't quite catch that." Riley added.

"I...like...both of you." Wyatt confessed, looking down to avoid eye contact. Riley and I looked at one another for a while, before nodding. I took one of Wyatt's hands into mine and so did Riley.

"We'll if you're suggesting we become a throuple," I started.

"The answer's yes." Riley finished.

Wyatt's face lit up as he pulled us both in for a hug. "Oh thank god! It was so hard to get that off of my chest." He told us, making us giggle.

Riley POV

Zed, Wyatt, and I all walked into the school, hand in hand, ignoring the looks Bucky and the ACEYs gave us.

Wynter suddenly ran up to us. "Oh my god, oh my god, oh my gooood! Did Wyatt finally tell you both his feelings? Are you all a thing now?" She asked, excitedly.

"Yes to both of those questions, Wynter." Wyatt confessed, his face turning red. "Awww!" Wynter cooed, making Zed and I laugh. "Don't be embarrassed, Wyatt." Zed said, "He's right. There's no need now that we're together." I added.

We both then kissed Wyatt's cheeks, as Wynter continued to fan girl even more now.

~~~

"I take it you two made up?" I asked, walking up to Addie and Eliza, who were dancing. "Yup!" Addie responded.

Art of the sudden, the floor started to tremble. "Oh god, not again!" I exclaimed. "Ry Ry!" Zed said, as he and Wyatt ran up to me, "This way!" Wyatt said, running off.

We all followed close behind, into the hallway and saw the floor cracking open. "The energy from the moonstone must've created the fault line." Zed stated.

"What?" Willa said.

"If we follow this crack it may lead us to the moonstone." Wyatt said. "So it's only buried, not destroyed!" Addie said, happily.

"We have to get to it!" Wynter said.

"Quickly! While we still can." Willa ordered, running into the crack.

Wyatt POV

"It's this way. I see the light, it's coming from Seabrook Power." Willa said, as we traversed the narrow area. After a bit more running, we finally reached a clearing. "Here it is!" Willa exclaimed, running up to the moonstone. We all pressed our moonstones up against it, and they were fully recharged!

Then the rumbling continued, causing Willa to tell us to move it out of here. "Legend says that together our pack can move the moonstone." I told her. "All of us, lift!" Willa commanded. We all grabbed onto the moonstone and pulled with all of our might, we were able to lift it up a bit, however we couldn't hold on much longer.

"It's too heavy." Wynter said, worried. "There's not enough of us." Willa said.

"Then maybe you need to expand your pack!" A voice said. We all turned to see Addison and her friends run in. "We came here to help." Riley said, "Come on everyone. We got this!". We all then grabbed onto the moonstone and lifted again. This time it stayed in the air, but the rumbling caused the chamber to collapse. "Chamber's collapsed. We can't carry the moonstone through." I said.

"Your Z-Band!" Riley said to Zed, "It's still broken. Zeddie, take it off and lift the slab,". "Okay, Zed, you can do this." Eliza encouraged. "I'm not ready. What if I can't control it?" Zed replied, worried.

"Zed, you have to." Riley and I both said, before we kissed his cheeks. Zed looked down at his Z-Band and snapped it off. His veins grew and turned a deep purple, while the bags under his eyes spread. "Yes!" Wynter said.

"Come on you can do this!" Riley said. Zed then grabbed the slab that was blocking the pathway and pushed it to the side. We all picked up the moonstone again and lifted it out of the chamber. We all successfully got it out, but Zed couldn't hold on any longer and let the slab fall.

"Zed!" Riley cried out. We all stood there looking at the darkness, as it was interrupted by the glow of Zed's Z-Band. We all signed in relief as Zed walked into view. "Zeddie!" Riley exclaimed, running up to hug him. "Get in here, you." Zed said, gesturing towards me. I walked up to them and joined their hug, as everyone, except Willa, let out "awwws".

"We crushed it! We nailed it! We so rock! YES!" Wynter yelled out, "...Too much?"

"Perfect." Willa said, "We did it!"

"Say brains!" Eliza said, holding up her tablet.

"Brains!" Zed, Riley, and I said, as she took a photo. "We're getting our first zombie and werewolf on the Prawn wall of fame." Eliza said, proud, as we all celebrated.

~~~

Riley POV

I checked the time and realized it was 10:16. "Oh, I gotta get home." I told Wyatt and Zed, "My parents are strict." I added, noticing their confused looks. "However, you both come over and we could watch some movies." I suggested.

Wyatt and Zed looked at each other and smirked, 'What are they plotting?'. "Sure, I can go." Wyatt replied, "Just gotta tell Willa so she won't worry.", Wyatt then walked away to find Willa. "I can too, let me just text my dad." Zed said, pulling out his phone.

~~~

The three of us walked into my house and saw my parents all dressed up. "You two look nice, what the occasion?" I asked. "We'll your not the only one who can go out on dates." Mom replied. "Who's this?" Dad asked, looking at Wyatt. "Oh this is Wyatt! We're a throuple, now." I answered. "Aww, my baby's got multiple people fawning over him," Mom cooed, "Reminds me of me when I was your age.", "She's right, you know. I rememb-" Dad started to say, before I said, "Okay! I don't need to know any of that! Have a nice date. We'll be in my room. Bye!".

"It was nice meeting you, Mr and Mrs Wilson." Wyatt said, before following me upstairs. "Have a nice night." Zed said to my parents as he followed us upstairs.

"Have fun, you three." Dad said. "But not too much fun, if ya catch my drift." Mom said as they both walked out the house.

~~~

We all sat on my bed and I asked, "So what movie shall we watch?". "Anything except horror." Wyatt responded, while Zed agreed. "How ironic." I said.

I scrolled down through Netflix trying to find anything remotely interesting. "Ughhhhh, theres nothing good." Wyatt complained. "Exactly!" I agreed. "Well then, I can think of something else we can do to pass the time." Zed said, with a smirk.

(⚠️ Smut Warning ⚠️)

Zed started to kiss me and he then pinned me to my headboard. We pulled away and Wyatt started to bite and suck on my neck, as Zed took off his shirt. "Fuck." I moaned out as Wyatt found my weak spot. Zed then pulled down my pants and Wyatt stopped what he was doing to take off his shirt, too. 'Wow, how did I land these two?'

Zed and Wyatt took off their pants while I took off my shirt. I then started to make out with Wyatt, as he grinned our boxers together. Zed came up behind me and rubbed against up against my ass and started to suck and bite on my neck.

Wyatt pulled away from our kiss and gently pushed me on my back. Zed started to make out with me and Wyatt pulled down my boxers. I felt him wrap his lips round my tip, making me moan into Zed and I's kiss.

Wyatt licked my member and deep throated me, making me almost release right then and there. Zed pulled away from our kiss to pull down his boxers and Wyatt kept sucking me off, while taking off his boxers as well. After a bit, I came in Wyatt's mouth, and he made sure he swallowed it all.

"You ready, bae?" Zed asked me. "Yes." I replied, getting on all fours. Zed started to insert himself and I took Wyatt's penis in my mouth. Zed and Wyatt moaned when they fully inserted themselves in me. They both started to move, after I gave them a head nod.

They started to thrust faster and faster, after a while. I felt myself get hard again, as I approached my climax. "L-let's try, another p-position." Zed said, between moans. Wyatt then removed himself from my mouth and Zed slid out of me. Zed lied down and pulled Wyatt onto his erection, "F-fuck!" Wyatt cried out.

I then lied on top of Zed, so that Wyatt could insert himself into me and I was face to face with Zed. Zed and I started to make out as Wyatt thrusted forward into me, while Zed thrusted upward into Wyatt. After a while, I felt Wyatt start to twitch inside me, "I'm...I'm...c-close." I said, between moans. "Me t-too." Wyatt said, as I felt his thrusts get sloppier.

"Oh, fuuuck!" Zed moaned out, releasing inside of Wyatt. Not long after, Wyatt and I came simultaneously. All three of us slumped down and tried catching our breaths.

Wyatt got off of Zed and we all cuddled together and fell into peaceful slumbers, knowing we were surrounded by love.

3rd Person

As a blue asteroid blasted through the air and into the ground. No one noticed as Addison's hair glowed blue or that the patches on Riley's body glowed cyan and his regular skin color turned pink for a split second.

Chapter 16: A Date

Riley POV

The next morning I woke up to two pairs of arms wrapped around me. 'How am I supposed to get out of this?' I asked myself. I tried wiggling out of their grasp, however that just made them hug tighter. 'That backfired.' I told myself.

I then heard a knock on my door. "Riley, rise n shine! Breakfast will be ready in a few minutes." Mom informed me. "Okay, Ma. I'll be down in a bit." I responded. All the talking made Zed and Wyatt wake up. "Morning, sleepy heads!" I teased. "Morning, Ry Ry." Zed replied, giving me a kiss. "Morning, Wy Wy." Zed added, caressing Wyatt's cheek. "M-morning." Wyatt responded, all flustered.

We all got dressed and headed downstairs. "Good morning, you three." Mom said, as she finished setting up the table. "Morning." We all replied, sitting down. "Hey, where's dad?" I asked.

"Oh he's up in our room, sleeping," Mom answered, sitting down, "Probably tired from last night,". "What do you mea-" I started to say, before I realized what she was implying, "EWW! I didn't need to know that!"

~~~

"Wow, your mom's a great cook!" Wyatt complimented, as we walked outside. "Yup, my grandpa used to work as a chef and she learned from him." I said. "So, what the plan for today?" Wyatt asked us. "We'll we could all go out on a date, to welcome our newest lover." Zed answered. "Yeah! It'll be great." I added. "Sure, I'm down! Where shall we go?" Wyatt asked.

"Well, since we all just ate. How about we actually watch a movie?" Zed suggested. "Sounds great." Wyatt answered.

~~~

"Wow." I said as we exited the theater.

"That was...something." Wyatt said.

"We can all agree that that movie was garbage." Zed said, making Wyatt and I sigh in relief. "Thank god, someone else said it! I didn't even know what the fuck the plot was!" I complained. "Yeah, was there even a love interest? I could not tell what the hell was happening." Wyatt added.

"Okay, since that was a bust, how about we go to the arcade?" I suggested. "What is this? The 1990s?" Zed joked. "Come on, it'll be fun!" Wyatt said, giving him puppy dog eyes. I saw Zed's face turn bright red, as he turned away and said something along the lines of, "Okay.”

~~~

Before we headed to the arcade, we decided to stop at Coach's froyo cart. "Hey, Coach." Zed said, as we walked up to him. "Zed, Riley, Wyatt, how are you all? What will you guys be having." Coach replied, with a big grin.

"I'll have Peanut Butter n' Bones." Wyatt said. "I'll take a mint chocolate ship." I said. "And I'll have a vanilla, please." Zed said.

After we all finished our froyo, we entered the arcade and something immediately caught my eye. "Y'all wanna play DDR?" I said, enthusiastically.

"I've only ever seen people play it...so I'm not sure if I'll be any good." Wyatt replied. "Are you kidding? You're a great dancer, don't think we didn't see you last night." Zed teased. "Okay, okay, I'll play." Wyatt said, giving in.

We ended up playing multiple different games, not noticing how quickly night was falling. "Well, it is getting late." Zed said, looking up at the orange sky. "It ain't that late." Wyatt said, "How about we get some dinner? My treat!".

~~~

Wyatt POV

After we got a table, we all ordered our respective dishes and Riley said he wanted to tell us something. "So," Riley started, holding Zed and I's hands, "I want all of us to agree to tell each other if any of us gets jealous. We are a throuple, we're susceptible to that, and I don't wanna see any of us sad, y'know?".

"Of course! I promise to always be honest with both of you." I replied. "Me too." Zed agreed. We then all leaned in for a kiss.

 

 

'I'm so happy these two like me back.'

Chapter 17: Alien Invasion

1 year later...

Riley POV

Today, I woke up 21 minutes before my alarm. 'Why?' you ask? Well, tonight is a special night! If Zeddie wins the football game tonight, it might just be enough to impress the college recruiter, enough to let Zeddie, Wy Wy, and all the other zombies and werewolves come to college with us humans!

I quickly got dressed, putting on a red hoodie, some black jeans, and black sneakers. "Morning, Mom! Morning, Dad!" I squealed, running downstairs. "Well, someone's in a good mood." Dad said, chuckling. "Why, of course! If Zed wins that game then our baby can go to college with his babies." Mom teased.

"I know! I'm so excited! I just know Zeddie's gonna ace this!" I said, scarfing down the breakfast mom made. "Slow down, hun. Wow, you really are excited, aren't you?" Dad said. "Mhm." I said, with my mouth full.

I finished my breakfast and washed my plate, before heading out to school. "Bye Mom! Bye Dad!" I yelled, running outside.

(Later that day...)

"Your doing such a good job, Cheer Captain!" I complimented Addie, after her cheer session for the school. "Thanks, Ry!" She said back, wrapping me in a hug. "You guys, tonight is our last chance to cheer at a Seabrook football game!" Bree said, walking up to us with Bonzo.

Bonzo said something in zombie and Bree replied, "I know. I wish we could be cheerleader forever too."

"Maybe we should flunk science so high school never ends!" Bree beamed. We all looked unsure at her suggestion. "Nah, we just have too much chemistry." She said.

"We are so gonna win tonight!" Coach said, smiling wide. "And when we do," Zed started. "We'll be together forever." I finished, "Hey where's Wy Wy?"

Wyatt POV

Willa and I walked through the event, she was just bored, as I tried to find Ry Ry and Zeddie. "Our moonstones are acting weird, Wyatt." Willa said, holding her necklace, which was now glowing red, "Something big is happening."

"Something big is happening." I replied, holding up the flag I had which said "Seabrook", "Biggest football game in the universe."

"Just the biggest in Seabrook." Willa said, before snarling at someone who tried putting face paint on her. "Come on. You know how import a win is for all us monsters. Seabrook needs you, cheer wolf." I said.

"You want a fierce werewolf leader to rally a football team?" Willa replied, unamused. "Come on." I said, waving my flag. Willa glanced at the girl who was doing face paint, before agreeing.

~~~

Riley POV

"Let's tear these Eastside Eels apart! Destroy them! Yeah!" Willa cheered from atop the bus. "Wow, she really had a change of heart quickly." I said to Wyatt. "Yup. Maybe just a little too much school spirit." He replied, as Willa continued with her cheer session.

"Okay, everyone, let's give it up for our football team as they head off to victory!" Addie yelled, "Here they come!".

Bucky then burst through the "Seabrook Football #1" flag, doing a flip, and then his signature jazz hands. "Thank you, thank you, for coming to see me off for my big game." Bucky boasted. "You're not even on the football team, Bucky." Stacy told him. "Um, that's, President Bucky." He said, "And as president, all accomplishments are my accomplishments. It's gonna be a banner year for me, now that I've organized the...National Cheer Off?". Bucky looked confused at the flyer he took from Stacy.

"Addie organized the Cheer Off." Lacey informed him.

"She invited squads from all over to compete." JC added.

Then smoke suddenly came bursting out. Zed popped out from it shouting, "Go, Seabrook!", as the other players ran down the road and into the bus. However Wyatt and I noticed Wynter slowly walking, looking glum. Zed walked up to her and could hear him say something along the lines of, "You're gonna kill it out there tonight, okay?"

Zed must've said some very encouraging words to her, since what she did next shocked everyone. Wynter ran down the path, yelling with excitement, and crashed right into the side of the bus.

"Too much?" She questioned. "Never too much! You do you!" Zed encouraged. We all started chanting, "Seabrook! Seabrook! Seabrook!", as Zed ran up to me and Wyatt giving the both of us a kiss. "I love you two! Never forget it!" He said, wrapping us in a hug. "We love you, too." I said. "To the moon and back." Wyatt added.

"Hey, I'm Zed's dad. Nice to meet you." We heard Zevon say, walking up to the recruiters. "Oh, there they are." Wyatt said. "This is it!" Zed said.

"Together forever." All three of us said.

"Ooh, meteors!" Zoey said, pointing up.

"Since we discovered the moonstone, meteor showers have been pretty common." Wyatt said, sounding a bit worried. "It's so Seabrook." Zed responded. "Well come on. Let's go say hi." I said, holding their hands and leading them to where the recruiters were standing.

"Oh, hi." The female recruiter said, sounding nervous. "I'm a recruiter from Mountain College." The male recruiter said, sounding noticeably less nervous. "And we need..." He continued, "...we need,".

"You need to recruit me to Mountain College? Or..." Zed replied.

"Oh no. Oh no!" The male recruiter said, looking at the sky. Everyone looked up to see...a...a UFO?!

"It's a UFO!" Zed said, pointing up at it.

"I quit! I'll never leave home again!" The male recruiter said, running off. "Wait, wait, wait! Don't go!" Zed yelled out after him, "You have to recruit me to Mountain College!".

"Zeddie, I agree." I said, before Wyatt finished my sentence for me. "However, I think we have bigger problems to worry about!" Wyatt said.

3rd Person

The UFO zapped lighting onto the bus, as everyone ran for cover.

Bucky

Woah, I can't deal, man!
This can't be happening!

Bree

Is this real? Or, or
Something I'm imagining?

ACEYs

Am I hallucinatin'?
Do you see what I'm seein'?
This can't be Werewolves, Zombies, or human beings!

Willa, Wynter

Out of the clouds
Down from the sky
Something is here
But we don't know why

Could be a threat,
Let's put up a fight!
We have to protect
The Moonstone tonight!

Set our perimeters here, right now!
Move out defenses there, get down!
Extraterrestrials all around
They're hovering over our town, watch out!

Everyone

Oh, falling from the stars
A distant galaxy
Oh, we're not sure who they are
Friend or enemy

Now we really know
That we're not alone
It's kinda scary, though
But it's kinda cool

Film it on your phone,
Hide in your homes,
It's an alien invasion!

It's an alien invasion!

It's an alien invasion!

"It's an alien invasion!" Riley said, looking up at the flying saucer, as if...mesmerized. Zed and Wyatt ran up to him.

Riley

Can't believe my eyes
Is this really real life?

Zed

Don't know if we should be standing here
Or runnin' for our lives.

Riley

I can't decide it's way too much

Wyatt

Don't know what this means for us

Riley

Don't know what instinct to trust

Zed

They could laser us to dust!
Well either way,
I'm pissed they picked today for all of this to go down

Wyatt

Take our hands,
We'll get you somewhere safe until we figure this out

Riley

I'll handle myself,
Thanks anyways, boos
We don't even know what they came here to do
This could be the start of something new!
And if it's the end

Wyatt, Zed, Riley

At least I'm with you

Everyone

Oh, falling from the stars
A distant galaxy
Oh, we're not sure who they are
Friend or enemy

Now we really know
That we're not alone
It's kinda scary, though
But it's kinda cool

Film on your phones,
Hide in your homes,
It's an alien invasion

It's an alien invasion!

The UFO suddenly, shot out a beam, deploying several aliens.

Aliens

Started on another planet
Look where we at now
Scout ship crash landed
Underneath the ground

What are the coordinates?
Is it north? Or is it south?
Utopia is close
We'll get the map and then be out

We come in peace
People, please don't be alarmed
Though we might seem evil
We don't mean you no harm

We've come a long way
Traveled, near, near and far
Don't be afraid of us
'Cause we're not dangerous

The aliens all pulled of their masks, and three of them walked in a certain direction. The three walked up to an odd looking metal orb, buried underground.

"Search the scout ship." A-Lan said. "Precisely what I was thinking." A-Li agreed. "Yeah, we know, A-Li, because..." A-spen started, before they all said, "We can read each other's minds,".

"Jinx on you!" They all added.

A-Spen then used their arm band to make the screen on the metal orb turn on. It played a video of two masked individuals, one with pale skin and white hair. The other had pink skin with blue patches, and black, wavy, hair.

"This is Scout Commander 15-09." The white haired alien spoke. "And Scout Commander 15-12." The other, more colorful, alien added.

"We proudly report our mission is complete." The white haired female said.

"For centuries, we've been without a home, but we've found Utopia!" The colorful male said.

"The perfect planet for both of our people." They said in unison.

"I hid half the coordinates in what I think is the most precious thing in Seabrook." said the white haired female.

"And I hid the other half in what I think is the most precious thing in Seabrook." The colorful male added.

"Instrumomo." A-Spen uttered.

"You must find our most precious things- - p-p-precious-ious th-thing." They uttered, before the screen turned off. "The file is corrupted." A-Lan said.

"We need to find those precious things. That's where we'll find our map to Utopia." A-Spen said. A-Li and A-Lan both nodded at their words.

Aliens

We come in peace
We mean no harm
We come in peace
Don't be alarmed

Bree

We're under attack!
In over our heads!

Zed

We gotta hit back
Before we're all dead!

Bucky

I don't wanna get zapped!
Zombie out, Zed!

Riley

Don't overreact
They could be our friends!

Willa, Wynter, Wyatt

Let's settle this right here, right now

Zed

Move our defense there
Get down!

Everyone (-Riley)

Extraterrestrials all around
They've come to take over our town watch out!

Everyone

Oh, falling from the stars
A distant galaxy
Oh, we're not sure who they are
Friend or enemy

Aliens, Others

We come in peace (Now we really know, that we're not alone)
We mean no harm (It's kinda scary though, but it's kinda cool)
We come in peace (Film it on your phone, hide in your homes)
It's an alien invasion!

Riley POV

Zed swiped oh his Z-Band and the wolves activated their moonstone when we all stopped singing. 'To think I used to hate singing and dancing.'

Three of the aliens looked at Zed weird as he growled at them. Before Zed could lunge at them, I grabbed his arm to pull him back. "Zeddie, stop! Enough!" I scolded, looking over at Wyatt, making him deactive his moonstone.

"Oops. It seems our arrival may have caused a small, somewhat destructive, energy surge." One of the three aliens said. "It appears these angry beings may not give us their most precious things willingly." Another alien said.

The last alien said whispered something to them, as a flyer flew past them. One of the aliens picked it up, seemingly getting an idea. "I'm thinking what you're thinking." The alien who whispered to them said.

"Take us to your leader." One of the aliens spoke up.

"Your cheerleader." One of the other aliens added.

Bucky started to walk up, before I stopped him. "No." I said, glaring at him and nudging Addie forwards.

"Hi!" She said.

"We accept your invitation to the National Cheer Off." The same alien said.

"Z-Patrol, arrest them!" Dale, Addie's dad, ordered.

~~~

Zed, Bonzo, and I stood in one of the cells with A-Spen, the alien who whispered to their other friends earlier.

Bonzo slammed his fist on the table, saying something in zombie. "Bonzo, let's not deal with the alien invasion right now." Zed said.

"He's kinda in an impossible situation." I explained to A-Spen. "I understand. To get here, we developed interstellar flight, defeated space squids, traversed a carnivorous black hole, twice." They replied.

"Uh, okay, not that impossible." Zed said, "Because of you, I can't get into Mountain College. A recruiter quit, and zombies can't apply."

"Hmm." A-Spen pondered, before putting on some...sunglasses? Well, they looked like sunglasses anyway. "Mountain College. Downloading."

"What are they doin'?" Zed asked. After a bit, they took off their glasses and said, "Too bad you are not exceptional. The only way for you to get in is to prove that you are exceptional."

The three of us looked at A-Spen, confused. "Mountain College has a separate application for an exceptional student scholarship and it does not specifically prohibit zombies." They elaborated.

Bonzo said something to Zed in zombie, "Yeah, Zagara! That sounds exactly like me!" Zed replied. "Perhaps exceptional means something else in this galaxy." A-Spen said, making me snicker.

Zed playfully elbowed be and said, "Believe me, I'm impressive. Okay?"

"Meh. I do not see it." A-Spen responded.

~~~

"We have many advancements to share with your primitive people." A-Li said, "We even created a digestible bacterial fermentation of lactose at a subzero stasis,".

"Woah..." said Wynter. "Froyo? Yeah, we got that too." Wyatt replied. "Impressive." A-Li responded.

"If you're here to invade Seabrook our pack won't go down without a fight." Willa said, glaring at the aliens.

"We do not want your, one-star planet," A-Li said in response, "They are so emotional."

"Yes, but when in Seabrook. I'm going to disengage our emotional suppressors. Personally, I'm excited to see what emotions feel like." A-Spen declared, doing something with their wristband-thingy.

"Excited! That's an emotion! It feels so...exciting!" A-Spen said, immediately after. "We've decided to let you stay until after the cheer competition, but not a day later." Mayor Wells said. "Thank you, Mayor. We are honored to join your cheer competition." A-Spen replied.

"What is cheer?" A-Li asked.

"Oh, don't worry. I'll show you later." Addie answered.

"Also, what is competition?" A-Lan asked.

"When you challenge others to prove you're the best." I answered.

"No, we are a harmonious people. We do not complete amongst ourselves." A-Lan replied. "Although that is an intriguing concept, is it not?" He added, giving me a curious look, and then smiling, causing Zed and Wyatt to glare at him.

"Calm down, you two. He's just being polite." I whispered, "Go on, introduce yourselves."

"I'm Zed. Zombie, football star. Generally, well-liked." Zed said, holding up his hand. "Oh, competition!" A-Lan said, rubbing his hands together. "What? No, it's just a handshake,". Zed said, before A-Lan grabbed up his hand and sent electricity through him.

"Okay!" Zed said, letting go. "Did I win?" A-Lan asked. "Well, technically-", "No! You did not win!" Wyatt interrupted, making sure Zed was okay.

"Apologies. Our people have a special stardust spark." A-Spen explained. "That some lesser species find painful." A-Li added, causing Wyatt to growl at her.

 

"Welcome to Seabrook." I said.

Chapter 18: Worries

Riley POV

"Ry! Wy!" Zed called as we waited for him outside his house. "Hi, babe! Aren't the aliens so cool? They have a non-hierarchical approach to leadership. There a fashion-forward, peaceful people!" I rambled.

"Okay, we'll they did kinda blow up Seabrook, right?" Zed asked, before giving us both kisses. "Well, it was an accident, Zeddie." I said, "I mean just imagine the courage needed to come to a new planet! I mean, I'm just worried about going to college alone...".

"Ry Ry, don't worry. We are going to go with you." Wyatt said, kissing my cheek. "Yeah, you've got nothing to worry about." Zed added.

It's fine we're fine
Ain't no doubt about it

The three nuzzled their noses and ran off, except Wyatt who walked towards Willa and the pack.

Wyatt POV

"There no way the came across the galaxy just to cheer." Willa stated, "Why are they really here?"

As the aliens walked up to us, Wynter activated her moonstone and growled at them. "Better watch your step." She said.

"We will watch our step," A-Spen said, "Thank you for the warning."

"Smile." A-Li said, holding up something that looked like a lens of some sort.

"Cool, an alien camera," I said. "No fleas!" Wynter said, as her and I posed for the photo.

The lens flashed and I felt a bit...odd. A-Spen gave A-Li a nod, and they all walked off. "Woah. What just happened?" Willa asked, as I rubbed my temples.

~~~

Riley POV

"I have a real shot of getting into Mountain College. I just...I wish you were here to help me with the exceptional student appreciation." Zed said, to Eliza over a tablet, which was barely working.

"I am here! Turn around." Eliza answered, from behind us.

Zed and I turned to see a robot rolling up to us. "I whipped up a little something with the spare parts laying around Z-Corp. "This is amazing, Eliza!" I said, admiring the cool piece of technology.

"So, when's your application due?" Eliza asked.

"Uh, today, so not technically last-minute?" Zed replied.

"Okay, let me get this straight," Eliza said, "The only way you can get in is as an exceptional student?".

"Okay hold on." Eliza said, "Let me pull up your transcript...".

Eliza did some typing and something showed up on screen. "Hey! Check it out! I'm ranked third in our class for grade point average." Zed said. "Congrats, baby." I said, planting a kiss on his cheek. Suddenly, the number changed from 3rd to 9th.

"What? I'm ninth now?" Zed asked, bewildered. "No, that-that's wrong." Eliza said, before it changed from 9th to 18th.

"I'm ranked eighteenth? Wait, okay, this doesn't make sense at all. All these grades ahead of me are...otherworldly," Zed said, as we both realized the issue. "Zed." Principal Lee called, ushering us over.

"They did the entire course in 23 minutes." Principal Lee said, referring to the aliens, "It only took them that long because they couldn't figure out how to work a pencil sharpener..."

We looked at the A-Li who snapped the pencil in half in frustration, before A-Spen figured out how to use the pencil sharpener correctly. "Look! The utensil is functional again!" They exclaimed.

"The aliens stole all my class rankings." Zed said. "And beat your athletic records." I said, looking over to the leaderboard. "What? Hey!" Zed said, turning to Coach, who was sliding his name off.

"Oowee, Zed. A-Lan just obliterated your best times. He ran crop circles around you. Bench press records, blew yours away. High jump, he's a VFO. Very Identifiable Flying Object. He has six-pack abs." Coach said.

"I can get to eight, Coach. Just give me time." A-Lan said, making the sports jocks around him laugh.

"And the best part?" Coach said, "The laws of gravity don't apply to them!".

A-Lan then fiddled with his wristband and started to levitate. "I'd be happy to dunk on you, Zed." A-Lan said.

"That'd be fun to see." Coach laughed, walking off.

"Well, there goes your chance," Eliza said, "Now monsters will never get in,".

"Yes, being better than others is very enjoyable." A-Lan said, as A-Spen and A-Li walked up to us.

"Hey, aliens. You are ruining my chances to get into Mountain College." Zed said, through gritted teeth.

"Oh, I do not like this conflict." A-Li said. "Cannot wait to leave this discord." A-Lan said. "Okay, then why don't you go pack to your own planet?" Zed replied. I elbowed him, "Zed!"

"Because it was destroyed." A-Spen said, on the verge of tears, "We don't have a home.", then they actually did start to cry.

"I am so sorry, Zed isn't normally like this." I said, giving him a death stare. "I'm sorry. I-I didn't know." Zed apologized, "As tough as things have been for zombies, we've always had Zombietown. Is there anything I can do?"

"You would help us?" A-Spen asked.

Chapter 19: We’re…Aliens?

Riley POV

"With our Luma Lenses, we probed all the minds of Seabrook." A-Li explained. "Mind probes? Why would you do that?" Zed asked.

"We'll nobody was open to the other kind of probes, so we settled for mind probes." A-Spen said. Zed and I glanced at each other, "Oh." We said, realizing what they meant.

"Okay, but what about people's privacy?" Zed questioned. "Yeah, I mean, you can't just scan people's-" I started to say before Zed interrupted me. "Hey! What's that?" Zed said, pointing at something on the Luma Lens.

"Oh, your Biology teacher's brain scan." A-Lan responded. "Is that my test?" Zed said, bewildered, "A D+? Ugh, that is, ouch,".

"I could beat that, easily." A-Lan said.

"You were unfairly marked." A-Spen said, "Your answers correctly highlight the purpose of brains for zombies,".

"Your teacher does not understand zombie culture." A-Li said.

A-Lan then swiped the lens and changed the grade to a B-. "There. That's the grade you should have gotten,".

"Yes! Just like that? Thank you!" Zed yelled.

"So there is something you both can do for us." A-Spen said, holding up their Luma Lens, "This image appears in many scans. What is it?".

It was a picture of the moonstone. "That's the moonstone. A pretty important piece of Seabrook." I answered.

"Yeah, it's a life force for werewolves." Zed added.

The aliens all looked at each other, "Instrumomo." They uttered.

"However, stay away from it, because the werewolves won't let any outsiders near the moonstone." Zed elaborated.

"You are so caring!" A-Spen said, as they hugged Zed, hard. 'I think I heard a bone break,'.

"Zed, we shall reward your help by improving your application." A-Lan said. "It's not rocket science, but knowing rocket science won't hurt." A-Li said, "Would you like us to improve your grades as well, Riley?".

"No thanks, I'm good." I replied, as Zed and I smiled.

"What does that expression mean?" A-Spen asked, referring to our smiles. "It means that the universe has sent me an intergalactic alien dream team to help get this zombie into college!" Zed squealed, A-Spen smiling at us.

~~~

Later that day, I went with Addie, Bree, Stacey, and Lacey to a pizza place. "Everything's all set for cheer practice tonight, Captain." Stacey said, setting Addie's pizza in front of her. "Great. Thanks, Stacey." Addie said, turning around to see A-Spen close to her face. Addie screamed and so did A-Spen. "Fear! I recognize that emotion!" A-Spen said.

"Oh, great leader of cheer, I need your help." A-Spen continued. "Yeah, of course." Addie responded.

"I have a feeling I cannot define." said A-Spen, "My palms are sweaty, and it feels like space moths are in my stomach,".

Bree snapped her fingers, "Space Flu." She said.

"I think you have a crush, A-Spen." I said.

"Crush?" They asked, pressing one hand onto the other to symbolize crushing.

"No, it's when you like-like someone. You know, love." Addie elaborated. "I do not know." A-Spen replied.

"It's when you connect with someone in a really strong way." Addie tried to explain.

"And desire, somewhat irrationally, to be with them?" A-Spen asked. "Yeah, that's it." I said.

"Who's the lucky person?" Bree asked. "A zombie." A-Spen replied.

"Oh! Bonzo is so not available! Hold my glasses, Riley." Bree replied, putting up her fists. "Hey, calm down. We're not fighting the aliens." I said, pushing her fists down.

"I like Zed." A-Spen replied. "Never mind." I said, standing up from my chair. "Riley." Addie said, glaring at me. I sat back down and said, "Well, Zed is in a relationship with me and Wyatt, and us 'earthlings' don't appreciate it when someone likes their partner." I said, trying to calm myself.

"Oh. One must control who they love?" A-Spen asked, and I nodded.

"Well, you can't contr-" Addie started to say, before I kicked her leg. "Leave it." I said.

"We'll talk more about this at cheer practice." Addie said, kicking me back.

~~~

We all started to slowly clap, as the aliens finished their cheer session in the auditorium. "Addie, I'm your best friend, and I can't lie to you. They might win." I said. "Thanks, Ry." Addie replied, not looking like she meant it.

"Our telepathic group link makes cheer so easy!" A-Li beamed as the aliens walked down the stairs.

"Yes. We are even better than you, and you've practiced your whole life." A-Lan added.

"So fun! Thank you for inviting us!" A-Spen said, before all the aliens walked away.

"Hey, it's us against them, and we are going to win!" Addie said to her team, "We're not gonna let them take what's ours,".

"Like the Seabrook Cup." Bucky said. "Right, the Seabrook Cup!" Addie said, "Go, Seabrook!".

"See? Your squad just needed a common enemy to motivate you." Bucky said.

"No." Addie said, looking disappointed, "We are going to win because this squad loves each other, not because we hate anyone else. It's not who we are,".

"This Cheer Off is our last chance to cheer together, and to win it we have to try a...triple hip-hop double tuck Lindy." Bree suggested. 'A fucking what?'

"That move's impossible!" Said Stacey.

"I can't do that move without face-planting." JC said.

"His face cannot take another nose job." Lacey added, making JC gasp.

"Together, we can do anything. Come on, guys. Let's go." Addie said, as they made their way onto the stage.

Wyatt POV

We all walked up to the moonstone, "Someone's been trespassing on our turf." I stated. Willa held out her hand, "Someone's taken down our force field." She said. Wynter looked down and picked up a cup of froyo, "And someone's been eating our froyo. And it's all melted." She said.

"THE HUNT IS ON!" Wynter yelled, as we all howled.

"Mothership, please beam us up." A-Li whispered.

"We'll, since you said please." Mothership replied, before beaming A-Spen, A-Lan, and A-Li up. However, mothership also accidentally beamed up two guests.

Riley POV

As the cheer team finished their practice, I went to go congratulate Addie. "You guys are great!" I assured. "Contradicting yourself, already?" Addie said back, making us laugh.

Suddenly, Addie and I were enveloped in a blue tractor beam. We tried to call out to everyone, but they didn't seem to hear us.

Addie and I were teleported into a futuristic looking room. "What is going on?" Addie asked. Addie and I walked down a corridor, taking in the cool sight of this place. "Even though Im very confused, this place looks awesome!" I said.

Addie and I then walked down another corridor, which had a door with a window at the end. We looked through it, and just when I was about to say something, I felt a hand on my shoulder.

I turned around and saw Zed. "Oh, hi, baby!" I said, giving him a hug. "What're you both doing here?" Zed asked, "We got beamed up." I answered.

"What are you doing here?" Addie asked him. "A-Spen asked if I could help with my knowledge of Seabrook." Zed answered.

"Oh. They're trying to spend alone time with you." I said.

"Alone time? Why- ohhh, okay, well, I do have universal appeal." Zed said, rubbing his chin.

"We'll deal with that later." I said. "Beware! Intruder!" A-Li said, turning the corner, "Addison? Riley?"

"Mothership beamed you both aboard?" A-Spen asked, confused.

"Mhm." Addie and I said.

"We have no choice but to..." A-Lan started, before being interrupted by A-Spen and A-Li.

"Vaporize you." She said. "Welcome you." A-Spen said at the same time.

"A-Li." A-Spen scolded. "Right." A-Li said, "Welcome you."

We all walked into the room Addie and I saw earlier.

"You have a wonderful home." Addie complimented.

"It's is a marvelous ship, but it is not our home." A-Lan replied. "Our planet was destroyed by environmental blight built up over many years." A-Spen added.

"What? Over years? Didn't anyone try to stop it?" I asked.

"No, we lost everything. No one spoke up." A-Li said, sounding glum.

"That would've led to disagreements." A-Spen explained, "We value harmony."

"And we will remain one people in harmony at any cost." A-Li added. "You seem angry." Zed told A-Li.

"I'm not angry. I'm just in harmony in a super hostile way." A-Li responded. 'That's a mood.' I thought.

"I need to get off this planet." A-Li whispered to A-Spen.

"We need your help, but first-" A-Spen started to say, before A-Lan interrupted. "A-Spen has great feelings for you." He said. "Yeah, about that." Zed said.

"I've been doing research, Zed. Couples can grow apart." A-Spen said. "We are not a couple." Zed insisted.

"No, we are not. I am breaking up with you. I am sorry." A-Spen said, "We do not have tissues aboard, but you can use my sleeve if you must cry."

"What?" Zed slowly said.

"We will always have the invasion." A-Spen replied.

"As you can see, they have mastered the interactions of your species and feels you three can be trusted." A-Lan said.

"Years ago, our scout ship crashed in Seabrook and hid a map to Utopia. A new home for aliens." A-Spen informed us, "We came here to find it."

"Wait, I though you said you were here for cheer." I said, confused. "That was...a deception." A-Spen muttered, "We were afraid you wouldn't allow us to find the map, since it is hidden in the most precious things in Seabrook."

"So that's why you kept asking about the moonstone." Zed said.

"Yes. However, our scans came back negative. It is not there." A-Spen sighed, "What else is precious in Seabrook?"

"Well, cheer, mostly." Addie responded, "But you can't hide coordinates in a routine,".

Zed then reached for the panel before A-Li stopped him. "Do not touch! We are repairing the files of our scouts' logs." She explained. "With no success." A-Lan added.

"I mean, have you guys tried banging it?" Zed suggested, "It works whenever my old TV's on the fritz."

"Banging?" A-Li laughed, "That highly sensitive cosmic tech, you cannot just bang it." Zed then proceeded to whack the panel.

"Ow!" Mothership exclaimed.

"Oh. That seems to have worked." A-Li said, looking at the screen.

A woman with white hair and a mask, and a man with pink skin and cyan patches appeared on screen.

"This is Scout Commander 15-09." The woman said.

"And Scout Commander 15-12." The man said.

"We proudly report our mission is complete." The female alien said.

"For centuries, we've been without a home, but we've found Utopia!" The male alien exclaimed.

"The perfect planet for both of our people." They said in unison.

"I hid half the coordinates in what I think is the most precious thing in Seabrook." Said the white haired alien.

"And I hid the other half in what I think is the most precious thing in Seabrook." The male alien added.

"You must find those precious things." The woman said, "Many decades ago, out of fuel, our scout ship crashed on this planet,".

"Yes, we would've died if not for two young humanoids, Eli and Amber." The male alien spoke.

'That's grandma's name.' I thought.

"They hid us and nursed us to health." The female alien explained.

"But with no ship to take us home. We had to hide our true identities." The male alien said.

"We joined Eli and Amber at their school and I discovered my passion: Cheerleading." The female alien said, "I even created a trophy,".

Addie gasped, "The Seabrook Cup!".

"However, no longer in contact with our people, my hair grew white and I lost my stardust powers." The female alien added.

"Nothing happened to me so, I'm using the last of my power to change the pigmentation of my skin to better fit here on earth." The male alien spoke, as a blue aura surrounded him. His pink skin turned brown and the patches on his body turned pale.

"On earth we gained something fantastic." The female alien said.

"Our families." They said together.

"Eli and I fell in love and married, we named our first born A-Mishanta, but we always called her Missy." Said the female alien.

"That's my mom's name." Addie uttered.

"I fell in love with and married Amber and we name our firstborn Ry-An, however we just called him Ryan." The male alien added.

"Hey, that's...my dad's name." I said.

Then both aliens turned off their masks, revealing their faces and making me realize that the male alien was...my grandpa.

"Grandma?" Addie said. "Grandpa?" I said at the same time.

"Those alien scouts were your grandparents!" Zed exclaimed.

"Grandpa was an alien? Dad's an alien?" I said, puzzled. "You both are part alien, that's why mothership beamed you up!" A-Spen told us. "I finally know who I am!" Addie said, hugging me tightly.

"Hey, how come my grandpa looked different as an alien?" I asked the aliens. "Oh, your grandfather was a separate species of alien who lost their planet to the same issue as ours, as well. They all had colorful skin with lots of different variation of patches." A-Lan told me. "They were also a much more advanced people, so their powers could last longer than ours can without stardust." He added

A-Spen then pulled a tube out of the panel and inside were two Luma Lenses. "We found these Luma Lenses on the scout ship, they belonged to your grandparents." A-Spen said, handing them to us.

"Now, do you posses a spark?" A-Li questioned. "Try to lift the Luma Lens." A-Spen explained. Addie, or I guess A-Die? No, I'll stick to Addie.

Addie and I concentrated hard on the lenses, hers didn't budge, however mine moved slightly to the left.

"I-I can't." Addie said. "I can. Only a smidge, though." I said.

"That's great, Ry-Ley." Addie teased. "Thanks, A-Dison." I said back, making us both giggle. "Our relationship with stardust defines us, Addison. Our technology would not work for you." A-Spen said.

"You cannot share in our telepathy." A-Lan added. "Nor survive travel with us." A-Li said. "Riley might be able to, however it is very risky," A-Lan said.

"No, no, this is who I am. This is where I belong. It all makes sense." Addie rambled. "I'm sorry. You do not have our spark. You are not truly one of us." A-Spen said, making Addie sigh. "Right. Yeah. Sorry." She said, running off. "Addie!" I called after her, she didn't answer and kept running. Zed and I followed her through the corridors, and into the place we were teleport in.

Mothership then beamed us down and we were back in Zombietown. "The aliens won't accept me! I may be part alien, but I'm still totally alone!" Addie cried into my shoulder. I wrapped my arms around her and said, "Addie because of you, no one in Seabrook ever has to feel alone. You made this place for people to call home."

Addie wiped her tears away and said, "I'll still help the aliens find the map to their new home."

Chapter 20: Our Exceptional Zed

Riley POV

Zed walked me home after the whole alien ordeal and asked, "You okay?". "Mhm. I'm...fine." I replied.

"I'll...I'll see you tomorrow." I said, giving him a kiss, what was odd was that I felt a zap of electricity when Zed and I kissed.

"Did...did you feel that?" Zed asked me. "Yeah." I said. "I guess our spark's turnin' literal." Zed said, making me laugh. "Goodnight, bae." I said, walking into my house. "Night, Ry Ry,".

I walked into my bedroom and pulled out a picture book from my shelf. I opened it up and flipped through all the memories my family had put in there. 'Where would you hide those coordinates, grandpa?'

I looked at the Luma Lens again to concentrate on it. It moved a bit to the left again, then it started to hover a bit. Just then Dad came into my room and I hid the lens under my blanket. "Hey honey, just wanted to make sure you got home safe." He said.

"Dad, where was Grandpa Ryo from?" I asked him. He hesitated for a split second before saying, "Seabrook honey, born and raised. Why?"

"It's nothing." I replied. "Goodnight, Ry." Dad said, before exiting my room.

~~~

"Attention everyone! If Zed can prove that monsters are exceptional, doors will open for all of us." Eliza said into a microphone, "All right, everybody. Listen up. We only get one shot. Zed's interviewer, Mrs.Crabtree, is gonna be here in an hour,".

Bonzo said something in zombie and pointed somewhere. "Who's early?" Eliza replied. "Uh-Oh." She said, realizing who Bonzo was talking about.

"Seabrook, we have a problem!".

~~~

Bree, Bonzo, and I rushed to the beach where Zed, Wyatt, Willa, and Wynter were. "She's early!" I yelled. "Who?" Wyatt asked. "Zed's...interviewer." I said, out of breath from running.

Riley POV

Zed, Wyatt, and I walked up to Mrs.Crabtree. "What did you do to deserve all this?" She asked. "I have no idea." Zed answered, looking behind him to see everyone, even Bucky, cheering him on.

"Thank you." Zed said to Eliza. "Progress for you is progress for us all." Eliza replied.

~~~

"We found your application...persuasive." Mrs.Crabtree said.

"Well, I'm just doing my Zom-best." Zed joked.

"Uh, our biggest concern is that you could turn into a monster at any time." She replied.

'Bit rude.'

"Yes, I am a monster, but completely safe. Zombies eating brains? Thing of the past."

"Zed can control his zombie-ing out." I said, putting my hand on his shoulder. However, when I did, electricity crackled through Zed, making him yelp.

"Look at that! We have electricity." He said, trying to act normal.

"I must've rubbed my foot on the carpet." I said, trying to explain what just happened.

"What was that? There's no way it was static electricity." Wyatt whispered into my ear. "I'll explain, later." I whispered back.

"Despite being a zombie, how would you positively impact Mountain College?" Mrs.Crabtree said.

"Despite?" Wyatt and I said, angrily. "Uh, that is a fair question." Zed said. "Um, y'know, I think what I bring to the table is the-" Zed started to say, before I place my hand on his and electricity flowed through him again.

He twitched as his veins started to get bigger and then disappear again. "You okay there?" Mrs.Crabtree said, her voice faltering.

"Yeah! No, I'm great. Just give me a second to...I just need to use the restroom real quick." Zed said, walking into another room.

"That's the kitchen." His dad whispered to Wyatt and I. We laughed, awkwardly, and followed Zed into the kitchen.

"Baby, are you okay?" I asked. "I'm fine, I just...lost control." Zed replied. "That was 100% not static electricity." Wyatt said, "Is there something you aren't telling me?"

"Listen, I was gonna tell you later, I promise." I said. "I believe you." Wyatt assured.

"I'm...an alien. Well, quarter alien, technically." I said. Wyatt's eyes widened and he said, "What? How?"

"It's a long story, My grandpa was an alien." I said, "Nevermind, I guess it wasn't a long story."

"Oh...kay." Wyatt said, trying to wrap his mind around everything. "Anyways, Zed are you sure you're fine?" I asked, putting my hands on his shoulder, forgetting what just happened.

He got zapped again and started to, mildly, zombie out. "Not now! I gotta focus!" He said. Out of reflex I put my hands on his shoulders again, this time Zed got launched back. "I'm so sorry!" I said.

"Wow. Your powers have really grown from last night." Zed said, stumbling to his feet. "Jeez, we should really stop you two from touching for a while." Wyatt said, helping Zed up.

"Riley Nova Wilson! This means you really are a powerful alien!" Zed said, lurching forwards to give me a hug. "Wait, Zed!" Wyatt and I said in unison, before Zed wrapped his arms around me and got zapped back, crashing into Wyatt, and out the door.

Zed stumbled up with his veins popping out and him growling, causing Mrs.Crabtree to scream. "Zombie!" She yelled, running out of the house.

"No, no, no wait!" Zed pleaded, as he tried to gain control of himself. Before I did anything else, I grabbed some gloves and put them on. "I'm so sorry." I said to Zed. "Don't be." He replied, kissing my forehead and then running after Mrs.Crabtree.

"Wait! Please." Zed called after her. Zed looked back at Wyatt and I, we both nodded.

"I know that I may be different," Zed sang, "Who that's exceptional isn't? We have a spark that can change things. It's not a curse it's amazing. I'm Exceptional Zed and so are all my family and friends. We're artists, athletes, and activists. Who always give it our best. We don't need to pretend, 'cause we won't ever fit in. And we're not just awesome in spite of that, we take pride in that instead. We're all exceptional."

"We'll take that into consideration." Mrs.Crabtree said, smiling

Chapter 21: We are Aliens!

Riley POV

Addie and I walked on stage, before the competition, to check the place out. Our eyes fell on the Seabrook Cup and we both gasped. "Hey, that's alien language!" I said, pointing to the cup. "The Seabrook Cup, of course! That's where my grandma hid the first half of the coordinates!" Addie exclaimed.

"Now, we just need to find what my grandpa thought was the most precious thing." I said, still thinking. "Well, was your grandpa passionate about anything?" Addie asked. "Not that I can think of." I answered.

"Don't worry we will figure it out." Addie assured, giving me a hug. When she did I felt electrify course through me and launch me back. "Woah! What the fuck was that?" Addie exclaimed, "Ry Ry, you okay?"

"I'm...good." I said, strained. "The same thing happened when I touched Zed this morning." I explained. "That means your alien powers are getting stronger!" I said, happy for her. "Really? I guess they took longer to affect us." Addie said.

~~~

Wyatt POV

As Willa, Wynter, and I walked into the auditorium, we saw Bucky with one of the lenses that the aliens held us to us earlier.

"What do we have here?" He said, as it flashed. "What do we have here?" He repeated, as the lens flashed again. "What do we have here?" Willa and I shared a confused look.

~~~

"Now, remember. This priceless thingy is mine! So tell me what it is! Now! Now! Now!" Bucky said, as I held the lens. "So catty. Clearly not raised by wolves." Wynter said.

"I bet I'm the first intern to ever hack alien tech." Eliza said, as she typed away. "It's a firewall." She said.

"Let me try my moonstone." I said, holding close to the lens. "It worked!" Said Eliza, "It's a...mind probe.”

We looked at the lens as it displayed memories of Bucky. "Look at all those people who think of me!" Bucky said, pointing at the lens. "That's just your mind scan, Bucky." Eliza replied.

Then Wynter's mind scans showed up on the lens. "Aww, Wynter. You like cat videos." I said, teasingly.

"Everyone likes kittens." She responded.

"Okay, let's see your memories, Wyatt." Eliza said. "Wait! Wait! No, y'all don't need to know what I remember!" I said, covering the lens with my hand.

"oh, Oh, OH, no. Yeah, nevermind. I see why you don't want anyone seeing that." Eliza said, switching to Willa's memories.

"Hey, how come a lot of your memories are of A-Spen?" Eliza asked, as Willa turned bright red. "Uh, I, err, c-cause I'm thinking about how much I...want them off the planet!" Willa stuttered. "Suuuure." Wynter said.

"Enough with the memories! Just tell us what the aliens are up to!" Willa ordered. Eliza swapped to one of the aliens memories. "You must find those precious things." Two aliens said in the memory.

"The aliens lied about their mission!" Wynter exclaimed. "We knew they were shady all along." Willa said, "Who knows what else they're lying to us about? Bucky, alert the Z-Patrol,".

"Help! Help! Z-Patrol, we need help!" Bucky ran away screaming.

~~~

Zed POV

As the Eels finished their cheer session, I felt my phone buzz. I pulled it out and held it up to my ear, covering my other ear with my free hand. "Hello, this is Zed Necrodopolis." I said, "Yes? I gotta take this. I love you." I told Riley and my family, as I walked to a quieter area.

"Yes, this is he. This is I. This is Zed Necrodopolis."

"Really?"

"Okay! Wow! All right. Well, thank you so much. All right, bye."

"I just got accepted into Mountain College!" I exclaimed, "You did?!" Riley said, from behind me.

"Yeah! They're even inviting other monsters to apply!" I said running up to hug him, before I remembered what happened earlier. "No, it's okay. I talked to the aliens before hand. They taught me how to control it." Riley told me.

(Some spicy smoochin' about to happen)

"That's great!" I said, hugging him. I looked down at my Ry Ry and pulled him in for a kiss. It started off soft, and ended up getting more and more heated. I pinned him against the wall and licked his bottom lip. He opened his mouth and our tongues wrapped around one another. Riley then pulled away.

"We can continue this another time, we should probably head back in." Riley said.

Riley POV

As I finished my sentence Zed and I heard sirens and looked out the windows, outside. The Z-Patrol were talking about the aliens. Zed and I looked at each other.

"We gotta warn the aliens."

~~~

Zed and I ran back stage to go tell the aliens about the Z-Patrol. "Wait! Do not go out there!" Zed said, as we saw the aliens.

"But we need to win the cheer cup, our future depends on it." A-Li said. "And winning tastes so good, guys." A-Lan added.

"The Z-Patrol is looking for you. They're not gonna let you compete." I said. "But without our map, we'll forever wander the galaxy without a home." A-Spen said.

"Well, you better hope Addison sticks her landing and wins it for ya." Zed responded. A-Spen hesitated for a moment, before nodding their head. "Let's go." I said, as the aliens followed Zed and I out of the auditorium.

~~~

We all celebrated when Seabrook won the cup. That was until the Wyatt, Willa, Wynter, and Bucky all ran up onto the stage. "The aliens are liars! They've come to take what's ours!" Willa yelled, "We should've never let Addison welcome in those outsiders.”

Zed, the aliens, and I all walked forward. "Step back, you two." Willa ordered, growling. "So much passion!" A-Spen said. "She wants to rip your heart out." I explained. "She can have it!" A-Spen declared.

"Give me it, Addison!" Bucky said, trying to pry the cup from her hands, "You won it, it's mine!". "No!" Addie said, yanking it back, running off stage, and running off with us.

"She's stealing the Seabrook Cup!" Bucky whined. "Go, go, go, go!" Zed ushered.

"Why are they helping those thieves!" Willa scowled. "They're all traitors!" Bucky said, as they followed us outside.

"Freeze! Stay where you are!" A Z-Patrol officer said, as we got outside.

Addie and I's parents ran out from the auditorium. "Riley, what is happening?" Mom asked, worried.

"Beam us up, Mothership! Please!" A-Spen said. Mothership shone a tractor beam on us. "Wolves, attack!" Willa ordered. "Use our moonstones!" Wyatt added.

They all growled, moonstones glowing, and managed to stop the tractor beam. "Something's wrong. Critical systems failure." Said Mothership.

Addie, Zed, and I looked around us as the crowed jeered. Zed flicked his Z-Band and growled at the werewolves, Zoey following in his actions.

"Enough!" Addie and I yelled, before something horrible could happen.

Zed calmed himself and turned to look at Zoey. "Woah! You zombied out! You good?" Zed asked her.

"Yeah, I don't know what you're up to, big bro, but I got your back." Zoey assured.

"Yes, enough." Willa said, "This is your fault too, Riley and Addison. You let these aliens in, and they lied to us,".

"Hey, don't talk to him like that!" Wyatt snarled.

"Stand down, brother." Willa commanded, causing Wyatt to step back, still looking at her angrily.

"Your either with us, or-" Willa started to speak, before I interrupted. "With them?" I said. "We are them." Addie said.

I glanced at my parents, who were now wide-eyed, before saying, "We may be from Seabrook, but our my grandpa and Addie's grandma weren't,".

"We are..." Addie and I said, pulling out our Luma Lenses, "Aliens!".

Blue light enveloped us both as we transformed. The light stopped, as Addie and I both wore new looks.

Addie was dressed like A-Li was, and I was dressed like A-Lan was. I looked at my hands and saw I now had pink skin with cyan patches. 'Just like grandpa!'.

"You two are alien species!" A-Spen exclaimed, as we put our Luma Lenses on our wristbands.

"And they're amazing!" Bree said, looking at us. I turned to my parents, and Addie turned to hers. "Dad, Grandpa Ryo was an Alien!" I said, ecstatic. "Yeah, so was Grandma Angie!" Addie said to her mom.

"What? That's absurd." Mom said, looking at dad. "Yeah, it's impossible." Dale said to Mayor Wells.

My dad and Addie's mom gave each other a knowing look. "We know. We've always known." They both said, making Dale and my mom gasp. "So why didn't you say anything?" Addie questioned.

"Our parents thought that hiding was the best way to protect us. And you both." Dad explained. "Yeah, they always called you guys their most precious things." Addie's mom added.

Our eyes widened. "They called us their what?" I said.

"No, no, no the coordinates are not here." A-Spen said, after scanning the cup. "That's because their precious things weren't objects." Addie said. "Scan us." I said, as we held up our hands.

A-Spen held their Luma Lens up to us and it beeped and turned green.

"They are our map." A-Lan said. "The coordinates are in their DNA." A-Li said. "Instrumomo!" They exclaimed.

"You are the scouts's, err, Your grandparents' most precious things." A-Spen told us. "Yes! We found the coordinates!" Zed said, wrapping me in a hug, "This is great. Now you guys can record your coordinates and head back home,".

"Plus, Ry Ry and I are going to college together!" Zed said, holding my hands. He then turned to look at Wyatt, "They're also allowing other monsters in as well!".

Wyatt smiled from ear to ear as ran up to us to join in on our hug. "Yes!" He exclaimed.

"The coordinates to Utopia is dynamic." A-Li said, "Constantly computing new units to guide our spaceship. It's not just some numbers,".

"And since Riley and Addison are our coordinates..." A-Lan started to say.

"They need to come with us." A-Spen finished.

Chapter 22: One Last Thing to Remember Me By⚠️❤️

Riley POV

I finished filling up my suitcase, as my parents walked into my room. "Riley, there's something I have to share with you." Dad said, lifting up his own Luma Lens, "It's the last thing dad gave to me, before he passed,".

Dad then closed his eyes, as blue light enveloped him. He emerged, looking just like grandpa and I.

"Your beautiful, Dad." I said, giving him a hug, Mom joining in a few seconds later. "We love you, baby." Mom sobbed, "We're gonna miss you so much,".

"I'll miss you both, too." I said, "However, we're not staying, the aliens are bringing us back,".

"Yeah, but you heard them. It's few months minimum and a few years maximum!" Mom said. "I'll be with you two, even though I'm not going to literally be here." I said, kissing Mom on the cheek.

Wyatt POV

"They're saying the alien ship is damaged." I told Willa and Wynter, walking up to them, "It might not survive a launch,". "It's not totally our fault." Wynter said, "We just wanted to stop them from leaving,".

"Well serves them right for lying to us." Willa said. "We also lied when we first came here looking for the moonstone." I said, "If they acted the way we did, where would we be now?".

"Don't you get it? They're stealing from us. They're taking Riley and Addison." Willa said. "They're choosing to go with them to save at least one spices of aliens." I said back.

"Well...I don't want them to go." Willa said, her voice cracking.

"No matter how far away they go, they'll always be a part of our pack, Willa."

~~~

Riley POV

Addie and I walked up to the mothership and the aliens beamed down. "With the reactor damaged, there is a 67.9% chance that we won't have enough energy to leave orbit." A-Li said. "We must try. The longer we wait, the worse our odds." A-Lan added. "Okay." We replied.

Addie's cheer squad walked up to us and Bree handed Addie a pair of Pom-Poms.

"Think of me when you use them. They're supposed to shake, not me."

"We'll miss you, bestie." Addie said, giving Bree a hug. "I'll miss you both, extra-teresties." Bree joked.

Zed walked up to me, and I could see his eyes get glossy. "I'll miss you, Ry Ry." He said, with a faltering voice. "I'll miss you too, Zeddie. Don't worry, I'll be back." I said, trying to cheer him up.

"I know, but it...it could be wh-while." Zed replied, taking a hold of my hands. "Hey, it's okay. I-I have an idea." I said, "Give me your phone,".

Zed handed me his phone and I held my Luma Lens up against it and it fired a beam upon it. "There, I upgraded your phone with alien tech. We can call now!" I told him, handing his phone back. Zed said nothing, he just wrapped me in a hug and said, "I love you...so fucking much!".

"I love you too. To the ends of the universe."

We both heard footsteps approaching and another pair of arms joined in our hug. "I'm gonna miss you, Ry Ry!" Wyatt sobbed. We all stood there, embracing each other, knowing that it would be while before we saw each other in person again.

"Core reactors shutting down! Emergency Systems activated!" Mothership informed us. "We must leave now." A-Li said. "Even with our stardust reactors depleted, we must risk it." A-Lan said.

"That reminds me." Wyatt said, wiping away his tears. We heard howls and a car horn and turned to see Bonzo driving a truck with something on the back and almost the whole town behind him. "My rage will not be contained! You will not stop us from getting to Utopia!" A-Li yelled.

"Don't worry, we're here to help." Wyatt said. "You can find an infinite power source to recharge our ship?" A-Li scoffed. "Wolves!" Willa commanded, causing the other wolves to lift off the sheet covering the object in the back of Bonzo's truck. "We'll let you borrow the moonstone." Willa said.

"Though you might need a jump start!" Wynter smiled. "The moonstone is powerful, but harmful to our species." A-Lan explained. "Not if you have and adapter." A voice said, from behind us.

We turned to see Eliza, here, in person! "Zom-bae!" Addie exclaimed, running up to her and giving her kiss.

"How?" Addie said, till in shock. "Well, I can't just wish you goodbye virtually. I wanted to be here, before you left." Eliza explained, "Anyway, as I was saying, We just have to filter the moonstone power through our Z-Bands,".

"You all would sacrifice to help us?" A-Spen asked, amazed. "Wolves always have each other's back, and Addison and Riley are a part of our pack." Willa stated, looking at us, "Forever,".

I ran to her and gave her a hug. "Okay, okay, that's enough mushy stuff." Willa said, but I knew she enjoyed our hug.

"Transport us up, Mothership. All of us, please." A-Spen said, as we all cheered.

~~~

Everyone ran around, attaching things, and redirecting other things, while I tried to find Zed and Wyatt. I spotted Zed attaching a wire to a panel and walked up to him. "Babe, follow me, I need to show you and Wy Wy something." I said. Zed nodded and we both went to try and find Wyatt.

We saw him and Eliza attaching her old robot to the moonstone. "Hey, Eliza, I need to borrow Wyatt for a few." I said. "Uh, okay." She replied, and Wyatt got up to follow Zed and I.

We walked down some corridors and all the ruckus died down as we walked further and further away. "Sooo, where are we going?" Wyatt asked. "You'll see." I replied, grinning. We walked for a few more seconds and got to what the aliens said was my room.

I pressed my hand up against the panel, it scanned my hand and the door opened. "This is my room." I said as we walked in. "Ooh nice." Zed said, admiring the place. I placed my hand on the panel for it to scan again. "Door Lock Engaged." A computer-y voice said.

"I'm pretty sure everyone else has got this," I said, "Plus, I want to give you both a positive last memory of me, before I leave,".

(⚠️Smut Warning⚠️)

Zed and Wyatt got the message and started to take off their shirts, as I lied down on my bed. I stripped off my shirts and leggings, while kicking off my shoes. After we were all in our underwear, Wyatt pounced on me and started to suck and bite on my neck, grinding our members in the process.

Zed came up behind him and started to grind against Wyatt's ass. I moaned when Wyatt found my weak spot and he started to abuse that spot. Zed sped up his grinding, making Wyatt moan into my neck.

I sat up, causing Wyatt to do the same, and pulled off my boxers. Zed and Wyatt followed in my footsteps. I grabbed Wyatt and I, gently, pushed him on his back and lied on top of him, in a way where we weren't facing each other, hence I was looking at the ceiling. Zed inched closer and he and Wyatt were both aligned with me.

"I want you both to destroy me."

With that Zed and Wyatt both slammed into me and I let out a moan of pain and pleasure...mostly pleasure. They both stayed still for a moment, before I nodded. "We love you, Ry Ry." They both said, thrusting slowly. "I...love you both...t-too." I stuttered out, unable to focus because of everything I was feeling.

They sped up their thrusts, causing me to moan louder than I ever had. "You like this...that much?" Zed asked, panting. "I love this that much!" I moaned out. Wyatt then grabbed my hips, digging his nails into my skin in the process, and let out an animalistic growl before starting to thrust at an inhuman speed.

Zed then swiped on his Z-Band and zombied out, letting out a monstrous roar. He then started to thrust harder, matching Wyatt's speed. After a few more thrusts I started to feel odd, then I looked down and saw that the cyan patches on my skin were now flashing multiple different colors. 'Huh, that's new.'

"Woah...what's ha-happening... to y-you?" Wyatt asked. "I d-dunno." I replied, my voice faltering. "Oh fuck, I'm close!" I screamed, feeling them twitch inside of me.

"Wh-who...are your...d-daddies?" Wyatt asked, panting.

"Y-you guys are..."

"Who are...your daddies?" Zed asked, in a distorted voice.

"Y-YOU GUYS!" I replied, shooting onto my chest.

A few thrusts later, Zed let out a roar as he came inside of me. Wyatt then bit down on my neck and released into me as well. Zed swiped his Z-Band, again, and fell limp onto me. "I love you both." He said, out of breath, "We love you, too." I replied. Eventually, Wyatt slid his fangs out of my neck and we all cleaned ourselves up before getting dressed again.

"You three are kinky." Mothership said.

"What? Are you everywhere?" I asked.

"Yes, nobody has privacy aboard me." Mothership responded.

Chapter 23: Nothing But Love

Riley POV

After the three of us cleaned up, we exited my room and helped with the last few connections for the moonstone. "Where were y'all?" Addie asked me. "Oh uhh, we were, umm...I...I was showing them around!" I lied, grateful that Addie is horrible at telling when somebody lies. "Oh, okay!" She replied, obliviously.

"We're gonna need an organic conduit between the moonstone and the Mothership." Eliza said. A-Lan then made a square tile on the floor of up and hooked one of the wires onto it. "Only our people can connect to the ship's stardust reactor." He said. "Unfortunately the moonstone's power is lethal to us."

"You both being 3/4 human might just work. You both would be a living bridge." A-Lan continued. "You guys can do it." Willa encouraged. "Yes, they are aliens." A-Spen said. "And part of our pack." Wyatt added.

Zed and Eliza looked at Addie and I and nodded. "You were born for this." They said. Addie and I grabbed a hold of the two wires. "Ready?" Eliza asked. We nodded and held hands. Instantly, electricity coursed through us, however it didn't hurt too bad.

The ship rumbled as the voltage continued to surge through us. "Okay, my laptop says the ship is fueled enough!" Eliza yelled. Addie and I let go and the ship dimmed for a few seconds before lighting up again.

"Mama's Back!" Mothership exclaimed.

"We must launch now." A-Spen said.

"Alright, preparing to take off." Mothership replied, as everyone started to run to the teleporting pads. "Launch sequence, go!"

Wyatt and Zed grabbed my hands as we ran to get them off the ship in time. We got onto the teleporting pads and looked at each other once more. "I love you both." I said, feeling my eyes welling up with tears.

"We love you, too." They said in unison. "To the ends of the universe."

"We have to be patient. We will meet again." I said, as tears rolled down my cheeks.

"Someday." They responded, kissing my cheeks. Mothership started counting down as we said our final goodbyes.

Then they were teleported off the ship.

~~~

The next day I woke up feeling like shit. 'Why did you have to hide your coordinates in my DNA, Grandpa!'

I picked up my phone and went to text Zed and Wyatt.

❤️My Supernatural Loves❤️

Ry Ry❤️🛸: Good morning! ❤️

Exceptional Zeddie❤️🧟♂️: Good morning, loves❤️

Wy Wy❤️🐺: Good morning Ry Ry, good morning Zeddie❤️

Ry Ry❤️🛸: I already miss you all so much!😭

Wy Wy❤️🐺: We miss you so much too!

Exceptional Zeddie❤️🧟♂️: Ikr! Seabrook is gonna be so much worse without you here.

Ry Ry❤️🛸: I guess I am pretty awesome 😎

Exceptional Zeddie❤️🧟♂️: 100%, baby!

Wy Wy❤️🐺: Yeah, you make Seabrook a habitable place.

Ry Ry❤️🛸: Well, Ik today is graduation, so I won't keep y'all busy. I love and miss you both so much! Bye!❤️❤️❤️

Exceptional Zeddie❤️🧟♂️: Bye, Ry Ry! We love and miss you too!❤️❤️❤️

Wy Wy❤️🐺: Bye Bye, Ry Ry!❤️❤️❤️

I turned off my phone, got up from my bed, and headed into the bathroom. I took a shower and brushed my teeth before getting dressed and walking out of my room. I lumbered down the corridors until I got to the ship's main room and saw A-Spen, A-Lan, A-Li, and Addie in there.

"Hi guys." I said, walking in. "Greetings, Ry-Ley." A-Spen said. "Ah, Ry-Ley! Mothership's almost done calculating the coordinates to Utopia, she's having trouble extracting it from your's and A-Dison's DNA." A-Lan said.

"Yeah, we've been stuck at 97% for a while now." Addie added. "Oh, come on, Mothership!" A-Li said, earning a glare from A-Lan. She calmed herself and then banged on the panel. "That did it. Only a few more minutes now." A-Li said, as the screen beeped.

"I've been thinking," A-Spen started, "Why didn't your grandparents just tell us that you both were our maps? Why make our search so difficult?"

"Maybe they though there was something to learn by staying in Seabrook for a while." Addie replied. Addie then (typed?) on the panel and brought up the mind probes. We saw all the memories of zombies when they first came to Seabrook. Bonzo frightening Bucky, Eliza's disapproval of humans, Zed zombie-ing out at the football game, Bonzo, Eliza, and Zed getting arrested.

A-Li and A-Lan glanced at one another, before another memory showed the werewolves coming into Seabrook for the first time. "I will miss your friends, but not the discord in your people." A-Lan spoke. "In Utopia we will never have conflict."

"But...sometimes you need conflict." I said. "Need it?" A-Lan questioned. "Look what happened once we overcam our differences." Addie said, as more memories popped up. "You became friends." A-Lan said.

"We did." I said, "Together we made progress. Conflict isn't always bad."

"Yeah, being challenged sometimes pushes us to be better." Said Addie. "This is true." A-Lan said, making A-Li nod. "No one spoke up when our planet suffered. All because we didn't want to creat disharmony." A-Spen spoke.

"And now our planet's gone." A-Li frowned.

"Harmony...isn't silence. Unity isn't sameness. Love...is powerful, it can handle disagreements." A-Spen uttered. Addie and I looked at each other and gasped. "We know where our grandparents your species to live!" We said, "The most perfectly imperfect place there is!"

A-Lan and A-Li (typed?) on the panel and the coordinates showed a picture of Earth. "Yes. You've found our new home." A-Lan declared. "Take us there, Mothership." A-Spen said. "Please." A-Li added

~~~

'We're finally fucking back!' I squealed, mentally. "Mothership beam me down, please!" I yelled, running to the teleporting pads. "Ry-Ley, wait for us!" A-Li called, as they all ran after me.

We all got onto the teleporting pads and Mothership beamed us down. "Riley! Addison!" Everyone cheered, as we landed. "You came back!" Zed and Wyatt said, kissing me. "Of course, didya really think I would let intergalactic space travel get in the way of us graduating?" I said.

"What about Utopia?" Willa asked. "Seabrook is our Utopia." A-Lan clarified. "But Seabrook isn't a perfect place." Bree said, confused. "Its not. It's messy, emotional..." A-Spen said, glancing over to Willa. "Full of surprises." Willa said.

"Where change can happen." Addie said, nuzzling up to Eliza. "Where someday can be today." Zed added.

"What a perfect place to call home. Now I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm just one proud Mothership. I love you kids!" Mothership said, sounding like she would be crying if she had eyes.

"PARTY!" We all yelled, running into the school.

"Yeah, Ry?"

"Is Bucky your cousin from your mom's side or your dad's side?"

"My dad's side, why?"

"Uhm, cause he kinda just launched Mothership."

"WHAT?"

Chapter 24: Alone Time With One Another⚠️❤️

(This is over the summer btw.)

Riley POV

"Okay, Wyatt texted me, he can't make it tonight." I told Zed, sitting on the bed and placing down some chips and guacamole.

"Well, we do need to spend some more time alone with one another," Zed said, "I mean like just you and me, or just you and Wyatt, or just Wyatt and I."

"Yeah, true." I said, cuddling up to as we scrolled through Netflix. "Ooh, what about this one? It's called U-N-D-E-A-D. It's about a girl named Rachael who falls in love with a zombie named Zeke." I suggested.

"Sounds kinda familiar." Zed said, eating a chip. "Yeah, that why I suggested it, dummy." I teased. Zed feigned being offended, "How dare! I am very intelligent."

~~~

After the movie and the food were done Zed and I cuddled under the covers together. "You're the best thing that ever happened to me, Ry-Ley Nova Wilson." Zed said, looking down at me with nothing but love in his eyes. "I could say the same thing to you, Zed Owen Necrodopolis." I replied. "Or I can show you."

(Smut warning)

I gave him a peck on the lips and slid myself down my bed. I got to his pants and undid the zipper, already feeling how hard Zed was. "Oh, someone's really eager today, huh?" I teased. "Sh-shut up." Zed stuttered.

I pulled down Zed's pants and boxers, grabbing a hold of his member. I moved my hand up and down, as Zed moaned like crazy. 'Glad my parents aren't home!' I thought. I sped up my hand, licking off Zed's pre-cum as it flowed down. I felt him start to twitch and I stopped my actions.

"Whyyyyy?" Zed groaned. "Just wait." I replied. A few seconds later I shoved all of Zed's 9 inches down my throat. "Fuck, Ry!" He screamed. I bobbed my head, making Zed moan my name over and over as I sped up. "Fuck, yeah! Take that dick, you little bitch!" Zed said, face fucking me. Zed's been pretty rough lately, I ain't complaining, though! I love this!

"Fuck, Ry, Im gonna c-cum." Zed moaned, as I felt him twitch. Soon after he shot his semen down my throat, "Sh-shit, Ryy~" He moaned.

I took him out of my mouth and slid back up my bed to face him. He kissed me, tasting himself in process. "We're not done, bae." I said, pulling off my clothes. Zed pressed his back on my headboard, tugging off his shirt. I sat on his lap, feeling his dick grind against me. "I'm gonna wreck you so bad." Zed said, swiping his Z-Band. "Be as rough as you want, Zeddie."

Zed grabbed my hips, lifted me up, then down again onto his throbbing member. I let out a moan and Zed grabbed the back of my head and kissed me, thrusting upwards. I moaned into the kiss, letting Zed explore every crevice of my mouth with his tongue. Zed let out a roar, wrapping his arms around me and thrusting faster and harder into me.

"F-Fuck! Ze-Zeddie, right th-there!" I cried, feeling him hit my prostate. Zed thrusted hard and deep, making sure to hit that spot over and over. "Zeddie, I-I'm close." I said. "M-Me too." He replied, his voice distorted. Another thrust later, Zed came inside of me and I came all over our chests. He swiped his Z-Band again and kissed me, passionately. "I love you, my little extraterrestrial." He said, caressing my cheek. "I love you too, my little undead monster." I replied.

We both cleaned ourselves up in the bathroom before heading to my bed again. We pulled the covers over ourselves and cuddled one another, falling asleep almost immediately.

1 week later…

"Come on, we're almost there." Wyatt said, dragging me along towards the den. "Say, why couldn't Zed come along?" He asked. "Oh, he said he hasn't spent time with Bonzo or Eliza in a while. Also, he thinks sometimes it should just be you and me, or him and you, or him and I." I explained.

"Okay, sounds good." Wyatt replied, as we reached our destination. "Hi, Riley!" Wynter said, wrapping me in a, way too tight, hug. "Hi, Wynter!" I replied, my voice strained. "Okay, okay, put him down. He needs air." Willa said to Wynter, who let go of me. "Heheh, sorry."

"So, You and A-Spen?" I said to Willa. Her face turned red as she said, "What about us?". "Oh come on, I'm not that oblivious. You both are dating, correct?" I said. "Y-yeah." Willa said, looking away.

"Okay, enough small talk. Come on, Ry Ry." Wyatt said, grabbing my hand and walking us t his room. "Bye guys!" I said to Willa and Wynter, as I walked away with Wyatt.

"Here it is." Wyatt said, as we stopped in front of a curtain-like sheet. Wyatt pulled it to the side and we walked into his bedroom. "Ooh, this is nice." I said, admiring the place.

"Yeah, we only just got man made things when we officially joined Seabrook's population." He explained. "This is a nice bed." I complemented. "Then, how about we test its durability?" Wyatt whispered into my ear.

(Smut Warning)

Wyatt pushed me, gently, onto his bed, as he sucked and bit my neck, searching for my weak spot. I let out a loud moan, and Wyatt covered my mouth. "Shh, we don't want to get caught." He said, before continuing to abuse that spot on my neck.

I tried covering my mouth to quiet my moans as Wyatt unbuttoned the shirt I was wearing, leaving kisses down my stomach as he got lower and lower. Wyatt unzipped my jeans and pulled down my boxers, pulling out my erection. He licked it from bottom to top and wrapped his lips around my tip. "F-fuck, Wy..." I moaned out, still trying to keep quiet.

He bobbed his head up and down, making it harder for me to conceal my moans. Wyatt started to speed up an I couldn't hold it in. "F-fuck, Wy Wy!" I moaned, cumming into his mouth. "I thought I told you to be quiet." Wyatt said, "You're going to need a punishment."

Wyatt ripped off his clothes and I kicked off my pants and boxers, while stripping off my shirt. Wyatt grabbed my hips and flipped me so I was face down with my ass up. "Keep quiet, will ya?" Wyatt whispered, before aligning himself. "Go ahead." I assured.

He slammed into me and I tried to cover my moans as best as I could. "Good boy~" Wyatt whispered. He slammed in and out of me, both of us trying to quiet our sounds of pleasure. After a while Wyatt let out a low, animalistic, groan and sped up his thrusts. "Ry, I-I'm close." He whispered into my ear. "So a-am I." I whispered.

A few more thrusts later, Wyatt howled as he came, while I shot onto his bed. "What happened to keeping quiet?" I teased, referring to his howl. "Well, I can't control myself around you, Ry Ry." Wyatt responded, kissing my cheek, before sliding himself out of me.

Suddenly, we heard a voice call from the other side of the cloth that acted as a door. "Y'all good? Why did Wyatt howl?" Wynter asked. "Y-yeah we're fine! Just showing off to Ry Ry!" Wyatt lied. "Okay." Wynter said, walking away.

We cleaned ourselves up and ended up playing outside with some of the wolf pups, before I had to go home.

Another week later…

Zed POV

"Sorry, I can't be there, I promised the aliens I would do some alien activities with them today." Riley told Wyatt and I. "It's okay, Ry." I replied, kissing his cheek. "Yeah, maybe next time." Wyatt added.

Riley giggled and said, "I love you guys, so much. I'll see you tomorrow.", while kissing our cheeks and calling Mothership to beam him up. "Come on, let's start walking so we can get there while it's still light out." Wyatt said. Today Wyatt and I thought it would be fun to on a little hike and camp.

~~~

Wyatt and I got to the area where we planned to set up camp. "Phew, we're...here." I said, panting. "You'd think you wouldn't be so tired, considering you're on the football team." Wyatt commented. "Oh, shut up..." I said, blushing.

Wyatt laughed and placed down his backpack. "Come on, let's set up our tent." He suggested, pulling some stuff out of his bag.

~~~

"Ah, all done!" I said, relieved. "Bae, do you mind getting some sticks for the fire?" Wyatt asked me. "Sure!"

I placed down the sticks I gather and Wyatt took out a match, lit it, and threw it on the pile. I grabbed some crackers, marshmallows, and a piece of chocolate to prepare myself a s'more. "Watcha doin'?" Wyatt asked when he saw me roasting a marshmallow. "Making a s'more." I replied.

"What's a s'more?" He asked. "You don't know what a s'more is?" I said, "It's only the #1 food made on camping trips!". "Can I try it?" Wyatt asked. "Sure, here." I said, handing him the one I was gonna eat. He sniffed it, before taking a small bite. "W-woah." He uttered. "I know, amazing right?" I smirked.

"Amazing's an understatement!" He said, shoving the whole s'more into his mouth. "I want another!". "Okay, okay, here." I said, handing him the bag of crackers, the bag of marshmallows, and the bag of chocolate.

We spent most of the afternoon just talking and eating marshmallows, before long it was dark out and we decided to crawl into our tent. "This was fun." Wyatt said, snuggling up to me. "Yeah, I'm glad we were able to spend some time together." I replied, wrapping my arms around his waist.

"Mhm, Riley told me that you wanted us to spend some time with just one of the people in our relationship." Wyatt informed me. "Yup, I'm glad we are." I replied.

(Smut Warning)

Wyatt then leaned up to kiss me. It started off innocent and quickly became more and more heated. I started to suck on Wyatt's neck, while I palmed him through his boxers. Wyatt let out small moans as I continued to look for the soft spot on his neck.

Wyatt then grabbed both of my hands and said, "Who said you're the top?", before flipping me over and grinding his erection against my ass. "I-I've never bottomed." I said, feeling my face turn red. "Then today's the day you do." Wyatt whispered in my ear, sending shivers down my spine.

Wyatt POV

I pulled off his underwear and, slowly, inserted a finger in him. "Fuck!" Zed said, not used to this. "Just relax, hun." I said. After a few minutes I felt Zed loosen up and I slid out my finger and slid it back in again.

"K-keep going." Zed said.

I kept thrusting my finger in and out of him, feeling him become more and more comfortable. "More!" He commanded. "With pleasure." I replied, adding a second finger. I repeated my actions, thrusting my fingers in and out of Zed, stopping when I saw his dick twitch. "I think you're ready."

I aligned myself with his entrance and Zed nodded. I inserted all of my eight inches into him, causing him to let out a long moan. "Don't hold back, baby. Fuck me 'til I can't walk!" Zed yelled. "If you say so." I replied, activating my moonstone.

I slammed in and out of him as fast as I could, earning me many loud moans from Zed. "Fuck baby, I'm gonna cum." Zed said, stroking himself. "Me t-too!" I growled, before howling and releasing inside of Zed. "UGH, FUCK!" He cried, cumming all over the sleeping bags.

"I-I love you."

"I love you too, bottom."

Chapter 25: Road Trip - Amusement Park

Riley POV

"I am very excited!" A-Spen said, loading one of the cars. "Yeah, I cannot wait to experience things outside of Seabrook." A-Lan added. We all planned to go on a little road trip for a week, "To Where?", you ask? Nowhere. We just wanna see things outside of Seabrook and then at the end of our mini-vacation, we'll drive back to Seabrook.

I finished loading Zed's car with some snacks, drinks, and portable chargers. "Okay, your car's full, Zeddie." I said, getting in the back seat. "Great, now we just wait for the others to finish their packing and then we're good to go." Zed said back. "Hopefully it won't take too long." Wyatt complained.

About half an hour later Addie and Eliza got in the car with us, as A-Spen, A-Li, and A-Lan got into their mini-UFO and Bonzo, Bree, Willa, and Wynter piled into Bonzo's truck. "Alright, we're good to go." Eliza said, buckling up. "Okay, let's go!" Zed said, starting up the car.

"Sooo...What's the first stop, anyway?" I asked. "First we're going to an amusement park about...an hour away from where we are now." Eliza said, looking at her phone. "Ooh, cool!" I smiled.

~~~

We all drove into the parking lot of the amusement park and got out of our respective vehicles. "So what is this so-called 'Amusement Park'?" A-Li asked. "It's a place where you can do fun activities and in some of them you can win prizes." Addie explained.

"Oh, so like competition?" A-Lan grinned. "No, A-Lan, we agreed no competitiveness." A-Spen scolded. "Okay, okay, I'll try to restrain myself." A-Lan replied. We all walked through the entrance and I spotted a Ferris Wheel immediately. "Oh, let's go there first!" I said, grabbing Wyatt and Zed's hands and running off.

3rd Person

As Riley, Zed, and Wyatt ran towards the Ferries Wheel, A-Spen suggested that they and Willa should go to the tunnel of love together, making Willa turn red. Bree and Bonzo went to go play a beanbag toss game, while A-Lan, A-Li, and Wynter were drawn to a cotton candy machine and Eliza and Addison decided to go on the tallest roller coaster they could find.

Riley POV

After a few minutes of waiting in line, it was finally out turn. "Yes, finally!" I said, getting on one of the capsules, Zed and Wyatt following me. We waited for a few minutes as other people got on and then the ride started to move.

"Woah, this view is beautiful!" I said in awe, looking at the setting Sun. "I could think of a more beautiful sight." Wyatt said, before giving me a kiss. "Hey...What about me?" Zed said, feigning sadness. "You too, babe." Wyatt giggled.

"Who would've thought that a zombie, a werewolf, and a quarter alien would end up in love, all while changing things for the better." I said, remembering our past. "I'm glad we did." Wyatt responded. "Yeah, you both are the best things to ever happen to me." Zed said, pulling us in for a hug.

"I love you both." We all said.

Addison POV

Eliza and I looked around, trying to see if maybe we could figure out which one of these rides was the tallest. "Ooh, check that one out." Eliza said, pointing at a ride named "The Adrenaline Rusher".

"Sounds hardcore!" I said, grabbing her hand and walking towards the line in front of the ride. "This is gonna be so awesome!" I said, bouncing up and down with excitement.

After waiting for a good ten minutes, we were finally able to get on one of the cars. "You ready, Zom-bae?" I asked Eliza, noticing her start to look nervous. "Nope. I am regretting this decision." She said, looking at how high the drop was. "Well, there's no backing out now." I said. "Here."

I grabbed a hold of her hand and kissed it. "We're gonna be fine, babe." I assured her. Eliza nodded and scooched closer to me as the ride started.

~~~

"That. Was. Amazing!" Eliza exclaimed, as we walked off of the ride. "Oh? What happened to you 'regretting your decision'?" I teased, making us both laugh.

Willa POV

A-Spen dragged me towards the tunnel of love and we got on the line, hand in hand. Soon it was our turn to go on and we got onto one of the boats. As the boat floated through the rise A-Spen broke the silence by saying, "I'm very glad that you have feelings for me, as well."

"Of course! Why would I? You're smart, funny, and cute." I complemented. "Thank you, Willa. I like how tough and proud you are." A-Spen replied, giving me a kiss on the cheek. I snuggled close to them and they put their head onto mine as we admired the lovey-dovey decorations throughout the tunnel.

Bree POV

I threw one of my beanbags and just barely missed the hole. "Damn." I sighed. "Don't worry, you still have two beanbags left." Bonzo replied in zombie. I threw my second one, determined to win the pink teddy bear I saw on that prize wall. However, I missed again. "Can you do this third toss?" I asked Bonzo. "Sure, babe." Bonzo said in zombie.

He squinted his eyes, focusing for a good 2 minutes, before tossing the beanbag and landing it through the hole. "Yes! Thank you, baby!" I exclaimed, giving him a hug. "Congratulations. Now what prize shall you be getting?" The man who was in charge of this game said. "The pink teddy bear!" I requested. He grabbed it off of the wall and handed it over to me.

"Thank for winning this for me, Bonzo." I told him. "Of course, any time." He replied, kissing my cheek.

A-Lan POV

A-Li, Wynter, and I walked towards the odd machine with pink fluff inside of it. "What is this?"mi asked the man next to the machine. "It's a cotton candy machine." He replied, confused. "Oh...what is cotton candy?" A-Li asked. "You don't know what cotton candy is? What are you both from another planet or something?" He asked.

"Why yes, yes we are." I replied. "I...that was a rhetorical question." He said. "If you'd like to try it, that'll be three dollars for each cone."

"Okay. We'll take three." Wynter said, pulling some human currency out from her pocket. He took the money, grabbed a white cone, and started to spin it around in the contraption. A few seconds later and he handed Wynter the cone, which was now full of the pink fluffiness. He then took another cone and did the same thing, handing it to me this time. Then he made one for A-Li and we all walked off.

I took a bite out of the pink fluff and savored the sweet taste. "Woah, this tastes amazing." I said, encouraging A-Li to take a bite of hers. "Wow, you're correct! This is delicious!" She said, scarfing down more bites. "Yup, human sweets are delicious." Wynter added. A minute later we all had finished our treats. "Come on, let's go try some more human food." A-Li said, walking over to a food truck.

We spent the rest of the afternoon going around the amusement park, trying new foods, which included a dog made of corn, dogs who were hot, dogs who were chilly and many more!

~~~

Riley POV

We received a text from the group chat.

Eliza: Okay, it's getting dark. We should meet up at the front entrance.

Riley: Okay, we'll be there.

I turned off my phone and grabbed Wyatt and Zed's hands, again, walking with them towards the entrance. We got there and spotted Eliza and Addie waiting for everyone. "Hi guys, did y'all have fun?" Addie asked. We nodded, as A-Spen and Willa walked up to us. "How was your romantic boat ride?" Eliza teased.

"It was great." A-Spen smiled. Bree and Bonzo then walked up, and we noticed how many prizes they'd won. "Wow, you guys are good at games." Willa said. A-Lan and A-Li walked up next, both looking horrible. "What with you two?" Wyatt asked. "We spent the entire time eating your human snacks." A-Li said, holding her stomach. "Yeah, maybe we should not have eaten so much." A-Lan groaned.

We all headed out into the parking lot or where our vehicles were parked. "So where do we go now? I am kinda tired." Zed said. "There's a motel about...seven minutes away." Eliza suggested, looking at her phone. "Okay, we shall rest there." A-Spen said.

~~~

We all got to the motel and booked rooms. I was with Wyatt and Zed, Eliza and Addie shared a room, A-Spen and Willa booked a room, Bree and Bonzo bunked together, and Wynter, A-Lan, and A-Li booked a room together.

We all wished one another a good night and walked into our respective rooms. Zed walked into the bathroom, while Wyatt and I took off our shirts to get comfortable for bed.

Zed walked into the main room and we all got under the covers and quickly fell asleep, surrounded by love.

~~~

I woke up to find Zed missing and Wyatt scrolling through social media on his phone. "Good morning, Wy." I said, planting a kiss on his lips. "Where's Zeddie?"

"He went to go get some snacks from the car." Wyatt replied. "The group decided to stay with our bunk mates for half of the day today, and then we'll all start driving again."

"Ooh, nice!" I said, getting up from the bed. "I'm gonna go get ready." I informed Wyatt. I walked into the bathroom and brushed my teeth, splashing some cold water on my face afterwards to wake me up. I walked out of the bathroom and saw Zed had come back from his trip to the car.

"Good morning, Zeddie." I said, giving him a kiss. "Morning, Ry Ry." He said back. "So what are we gonna do today?" Wyatt asked. "We could play some movies." I suggested. "That's your go-to isn't it?" Zed teased. "It may be cliché, but it's always a fun time." I said, smugly.

~~~

"Wow. I didn't expect U-N-D-E-A-D 2 to introduce vampires." Zed said, as the credits rolled. "I know, that's so dumb!" Wyatt snarled. "Woah, calm down it just a movie." I said to Wyatt. "Sorry...Werewolves and Vampires are...they don't get along." Wyatt explained.

"Wait, your saying vampires are real?" I asked. "Yeah...I mean zombies, werewolves, and aliens exist, why wouldn't vampires?" Wyatt said. "Oh, yeah, I guess your right." I giggled. "Hey, how about we play some video games!" I exclaimed. "Like?" Zed asked.

"Hmm, we could try...Mario Kart?" I suggested. "Okay, I'm down." Zed replied, pulling out his switch.

~~~

"Oh, come on, That is such bull!" Wyatt screamed.

"Seriously! How are you so good?!" Zed questioned.

"I have my ways." I replied.

"Oh come on, Ry. I wouldn't have agreed if I knew you were this good." Zed complained.

"Y'all wanna go again?" I teased.

"NO!" They said unison.

"Then, how about a less competitive game?" I asked. "Yeah, like a board game!" Wyatt replied. Zed pulled out Candy Land from his bag. "Really? That says ages 3-6." I said. "Well, we can play this or risk our relationship by playing Monopoly." Zed retorted.

"The former." Wyatt and I said, quickly.

~~~

"Y'know that was nice. Reminded me of my childhood." I said, as we cleaned up the game. "Yeah, it was fun." Zed said, putting the board away.

"Okay so now what." Zed asked. "Truth or Dare?" Wyatt suggested. "Ehh, sure, why not?" Zed responded. "Okay, Ry, Truth or Dare." Zed asked me. "Dare." I said, confidently.

"All right, I dare you to..."

Meanwhile, in the Forbidden Forest...

(The upcoming song is "We Own The Night" but with some new words since it's the vampires singing.)

Vincent POV

"We need to make plans on how to take our moonstone back." I said to Vance and Vanna. "Yeah, well what ideas have you got, genius?" Vanna retorted. "It's been a week, we've got nothin'."

"Why not try to pretend to be all goodie-goodie until we can find a good way to take it back without those werewolves knowing." Steve suggested. "Hey, that ain't half bad." Venessa said. "Yeah, let's go with Steve's idea." Vanna said, sarcastically. "As if that's worked out for us before."

"Quiet, sister." I hushed. "Steve's plan is good enough for now. We'll go in a few days, for now we pack and prepare."

~~~

Riley POV

We finished playing Truth or Dare and the group called us down to the parking lot. We all piled into our respective vehicles and headed out towards our next location, which was apparently a camp site.

The five of us in Zed's car made small talk, but eventually Addie, Eliza, and I drifted off into a deep slumber.

Chapter 26: Road Trip - Camping

Riley POV

I felt a tap on my shoulder. "Ry, wake up." Someone said. "Mmm, fives more minutes, mom." I said, groggy. "It's Wyatt. Wake up, babe, we're here. You can sleep more in the tent." Wyatt said. "Carry me." I said, not wanting to get up. "Fine." He agreed.

Wyatt picked me up and carried me out of the car, down a path, into the campsite, and into our tent. "Is he passed out?" Zed asked when Wyatt carried me in. "I wish." I groaned, shutting my eyes. "You can put me down now, thanks babe."

Wyatt gently crouched down, placed me down, and wrapped a blanket around me. I then start to drift off again, feeling Wyatt and Zed cuddling up to me.

Vanna POV

'That dumbass.' I thought, getting ready for bed. 'We have better odds just storming the town, but noooo.'

I put on my pajamas and walked down the hall to the bathroom to brush my teeth. 'I can't wait to get what's rightfully ours.' I thought. 'Those, literal, sons of bitches are gonna pay.'

I finished up in the bathroom and walked back into my room. I levitated off the ground and rested my feet on the roof, crossing my arms. 'Seabrook doesn't know what's going to hit them.' I said to myself, shutting my eyes.

~~~

Riley POV

I woke up alone in our tent. I reached for my phone and checked the time, "Damn, 2 P.M.?"

I sat up and stretched before zipping open the tent flap and walking outside. As I walked out I saw Addie, Eliza, Zed, Bree, and Bonzo sitting on some logs beside an unlit campfire. "Good mor-afternoon." I corrected myself. Addie chuckled and they all greeted me back. "Where's everyone else?" I asked.

"The wolves went out to get fuel and food, and the aliens wanted to come with to 'experience Earth's ecosystem'." Eliza explained. I nodded and sat next to Zed, placing my head on his shoulder. We all made small talk, waiting for the others to get back.

A few minutes later the wolves and the aliens emerged from the forest, the werewolves looking great as always, but the aliens...not so much. A-Spen and A-Li has sticks and leaves poking from their hair and A-Lan had claw marks all over his body. "Jeez, what happened to you guys?" Bree asked.

"The aliens are not as experienced hunters as us wolves are." Wynter said, placing some sticks down to start the fire. "Yes, your earthly wilderness did a number on us..." A-Lan admitted. "I never want to do that again." A-Li uttered.

We all sat around our newly made fire and the wolves started to roast some of the critters they caught. "Poor rabbit." I said. "Hey, don't feel bad." Wyatt told me. "They taste delicious!"

~~~

'"Hey, you weren't wrong." I said, finishing my food. "Told ya." Wyatt smirked. I looked at the time, 3:55. 'Hmm, what can we do.' I thought, leaning on Wyatt. 'Oh!'

"Are there any lakes nearby?" I asked. Eliza pulled out her phone and did some typing, "Yup, about a six minute walk down...that path." She said, pointing to it. "You guys wanna go later?" Addie asked. "Yeah, I was just thinking that." I replied. Everyone else agreed and we waited for everyone to finished eating.

Vanna POV

"Vanna...Vanna...VANNA!" "WHAT?" I screamed at my lousy excuse for a brother. "Get up, it is well into the afternoon." He told me. "Like I care? Let me sleep, you bastard." I said back, shutting my eyes again. "Ugh, fine. Just don't forget to pack your shit. We're leaving in like three days." Vincent informed me. "Yeah, yeah, just get out of my room!"

~~~

Riley POV

About half an hour later we were all ready to go for a dip in the lake. We grabbed some clothes from the bags we packed to we'd have something to switch into when we're dry. All of us made our way down the path and in a few minutes we were there.

I placed my change of clothes, my towel, and my phone on a log and ran towards the water, jumping in. "The water's just fine! Come on in!" I yelled to the others. Addie quickly followed in my footsteps, creating a big splash when she jumped in. Pretty soon everybody was in the water, either splashing around or challenging each other to swimming competitions, the latter was mostly A-Lan.

As I was floating peacefully on the surface, I suddenly felt a tug on my leg. 'What the-?' I thought, before what ever gripped me pulled me under the surface. I opened up my eyes and was face to face with Wyatt's toothy grin. He swam us up above the surface, laughing when we we got a breath of fresh air.

"Why would you do that? I though it was a crocodile or something!" I said, playfully punching his chest. "I'm sorry, Ry Ry." He responded, still giggling.

~~~

A few hours later we all dried up, swapped our clothes, and walked back up the path. We all said goodnight and headed into our respective tents again.

"Goodnight." I said to Wyatt and Zed, as we huddled together in our tent. "Goodnight." They said, kissing my cheeks and then each other.

Vanna POV

"Vanna, the crew and I are gonna go out and feed. Wanna come?" Vance asked me. "Fuck off." I retorted, continuing to play with Skweeks. "Ugh, come on. You can't stay in your room all day and hang out with your winged mouse." He retorted. "Okay, first of all, do you not know what 'Fuck off' means? And second of all, Skweeks is a bat." I said.

"Now. Get out!” I said, pushing him out of my door and slamming it shut. Skweeks squeaked at me. “What? Me? Rude? Never.” I lied, “Come on, we can continue playing, Skweeks.”

~~~

Riley POV

I woke up with Zed’s arms around my waist, still asleep, and Wyatt was scrolling on his phone. “Mornin’ Ry.” Wyatt said, quietly as to not wake Zed. “Morning.” I replied, kissing him. “What’s on the agenda today?” I questioned. “Well, we’ve gotta get drivin’ again. Probably gonna do that at like…three.” Wyatt replied, looking at the time, which was eleven. “Okay.” I replied, snuggling into Zed’s embrace.

A few hours later Zed woke up and told us good morning. “So what are we doing today?” Zed asked. As if hearing his question, Eliza texted in the group chat:

Eliza: Guys!

Eliza: I got an e-mail, orientation for Mountain College is tomorrow!

Willa: Oh shit, we gotta get moving then.

A-Spen: Okay, we shall back our belongings.

All of us gathered up our things and in half an hour we were all ready to drive. We all got into our vehicles and started the drive to Mountain College.

~~~

Vanna POV

“Sister, how ya been?” Vincent said, walking into my room. “Huh? Why do you care?” I retorted. “Listen, I know that Mom and Dad’s sickness is worsening. You don’t need to push everyone away, though.” He said, sitting down next to me. “I-I have no idea what you’re talking about!” I exclaimed.

“Vanna.” Vincent said, looking at me worriedly. “The coven will always be here for you.”

I looked away from him, so we wouldn’t tease me when I started to tear up. Vincent did the opposite of what I expected him to do and…just hugged me. “I know, I’m worried for them too.” Vincent said, starting to tear up too.

“I don’t say this enough…I love you, brother.”

“I love you too, Vanna.”

Chapter 27: Return to Seabrook

Riley POV

We all walked back out of the campus and into the parking lot. "Wow! That only made me wanna go here even more!" Wynter exclaimed. We all laughed at her cheery attitude. "Yeah, I can't wait to come here." I agreed. "This place looks so amazing!" A-Li beamed as we reached our vehicles.

"We've got a long drive ahead of us, so we should get some gas and then get going." Zed said. "Sounds great." Bonzo said, in zombie.

We all piled into our vehicles and drove to the nearest gas station, however the aliens didn't need any gas, so I offered to show them the gas station's shop while the cars filled up. "Oh wow, how cool." A-Lan said, poking a bobble head. I giggled as A-Spen picked up a candy bar and examined it. "What is this?" They asked. "It's a candy bar." They looked at me, confused. "It's chocolate molded into a rectangular shape." I said, trying to talk like an alien.

"Oh, can we buy it?" A-Spen pleaded. I chucked, "Sure. Here." I said, opening a plastic bag. They dropped it in the bag and continued to look for more stuff. "Ry-Ley, what is this?" A-Li asked me, holding up an 8 Ball. "It's an 8 Ball. Don't buy it, it's just a scam." I said. "Aww, but it can tell me answers to my questions. Look." A-Li said, before shaking the ball.

"What is the meaning of life?" She asked. The 8 Ball responded with, "No."

"See? It's so truthful!" A-Li grinned. "Fine." I replied, seeing how happy it made her. She plopped it in the bag and ran off. "Hey, Ry-Ley?" A-Lan said, tapping my shoulder. I turned around and he was holding a bobblehead of Mickey Mouse. "Okay, you can get it." I said.

~~~

After the aliens filled up the bag with random accessories and candies, Wynter walked into the store and told us the cars were full. I nodded and told her we were gonna go check out. "That'll be $23.55." The cashier said. I handed him $25 and told him to keep the change before handing the bag to A-Li and we all walked back outside.

"What took so long?" Willa asked.

"The aliens found a bunch of human things interesting." I explained. "Ah." Willa said, catching on.

We all got into our vehicles and continued the drive back to Seabrook.

Vanna POV

"We've decided to go today." Vance said, walking into my room. "Okay." I replied, floating off my bed, which was drilled onto the ceiling. "Let's go then, fuck boy." I remarked, pushing past him.

We walked out of the house, not before lathering ourselves with sunscreen, obvi, and walked up to Vincent, who was giving instructions to the other vampires. "We play nice, even to the werewolves." Everyone groaned. "I know, I hate it too, but we need to gain trust before we strike. It helps keep their guard down." He said.

We all followed Vincent through the forest and soon we were on the outskirts of Seabrook. "Okay. Y'all ready?" He asked. We all nodded and with that, we walked right into the middle of town. "Hello, Seabrook inhabitants! We are vampires. We've heard so much about your disgus-er...wonderful cheery town. We were hoping to also be inhabitant here." Vincent said, trying to put on an endearing voice.

Everyone in town seemed shocked for a moment, until somebody spoke up. "Well, we have zombies, werewolves, and aliens. What the heck, why not vampires as well! Welcome to Seabrook!" A guy behind a froyo stand said. With that everyone started to greet us. 'Wow. That was easier than I thought.'

~~~

Riley POV

Soon it was night time and I was starting to doze off. "I think I'm gonna catch some Zs." I said, getting comfortable. Everyone wished me a good night and I grabbed a pillow I packed, fluffing it before I put it behind my head and shut my eyes, quickly falling asleep.

~~~

I woke up several hours later to the sun beaming down on my face. I looked out the windows, realizing some things seemed familiar. 'We must be close.' I thought. "Good morning, Wy Wy." I said, noticing he was driving and Zed was passed out in the passenger seat. "Morning, Ry Ry." Wyatt said back, "We're about ten minutes away from Seabrook."

~~~

A few minutes later we got to the outside of Seabrook, however it seemed something was big was happening since there was a big crowd in the center of Zombietown. "What's going on?" Addie asked, waking up and looking at the crowd. "I dunno." I replied. Eliza and Zed woke up after I opened up the door to the car.

We all walked towards the crowd and I managed to spot my parents. I tapped their shoulders and they turned around. "Riley!" Mom said, wrapping me in a very tight hug. "I missed you guys too." I said, strained. "Hon, let the boy go, you're suffocating him." Dad said. "Why's everyone gathered around here?" I asked after Mom released me from her grasp. "Oh yeah! We forgot to tell you." Dad said, "Another species introduced themselves yesterday." Mom finished.

"Woah, really?" Zed asked. "Who?" I added. "Vampires!" Mom and Dad smiled. "What?!" The wolves snarled. "We've been gone for a week and Seabrook welcomes vampires?!" Willa growled. "Oh, what's wrong? Do werewolves not like zombies?" Dad asked. "Nope. We'll explain later...what is this crowd for anyway?" Wyatt said.

"Missy is officially welcoming them to Seabrook, of course." Mom replied.

~~~

After the crowd died down, we all decided to say hello, even though Willa, Wyatt, and Wynter were against it.

Vanna POV

After the mayor was done with her welcoming speech and everyone cleared out, a group of people walked up to us. "Hello! I'm Riley." An, oddly colorful, boy said. "And I'm Addison." A blue haired girl said. "We just wanted to welcome you all to Seabrook." Addison said. "I'm Vincent." Vincent spoke up. "And I'm Vance." Vance added, nudging me with his elbow. "The name's Vanna." I said.

"Hello, I'm Zed." A zombie said, holding out his hand. Vincent looked confused at him, before he realized what he want and shook his hand. My eyes then drifted off to three...werewolves. "Be nice." Vincent whispered, noticing me staring at the werewolves. "Listen. I do not know why you are here," A she wolf said, walking up to us. "But if anything happens to our moonstone, things will not be pretty." She snarled.

"Willa, calm down." Another blue haired person said, 'Hmm. They must be the aliens the people were talking about.' I thought. "Look, I know Vampires and Werewolves have had a...rough past, but I assure you. We are simply happy to be accepted by your cheerful town." Vincent lied. Willa glared at him before scoffing and walking off with the other two wolves.

"Sorry about her..." Riley chuckled, awkwardly. "If you would like, we could show you around." Addison offered. "That would be great, thank you." Vance replied.

~~~

"Aaand this is our old school." Riley said, as we reached a building with "Seabrook High" on it. "Well, we appreciate the tour, however it is about time we head back to Vampireville." Vincent said. "Oh, before you leave, there's a talent show for the entirety of Seabrook in about a week." Addison said. "Yeah, and now since you guys are a part of Seabrook, you're welcome to come." Eliza added.

I nodded and tried my best to fake a grin, "We'll think about it. Anyways, see you all tomorrow!"

Chapter 28: Seabrook Ain’t That Bad⚠️❤️

Vanna POV

"Great acting, you two." Vincent praised. "I almost believed your fibs."

Vance had a look on his face that I couldn't read, so I paid it no mind. "Now," Vincent started, "Tomorrow I want everyone to spread out across the town. Get to know the place, find a weakness anywhere you can." We all nodded and went back into the directions of our houses.

"So...what do you think of Seabrook?" Vincent asked me as we made our way home. "It's so...cheery and positive. It makes me sick." I replied. "Same here, sis." He said, "Same here."

~~~

I walked into my room and called out for Skweeks. "Skweeks, I'm home." I said, before Skweeks quickly flew over and landed on my shoulder. "Hi buddy!" I said, booping his nose. I floated up to my bed and crossed my arms. "Night, Skweeks." I said, shutting my eyes and falling into a deep sleep.

Wyatt POV

"I can't believe this!" Willa exclaimed, pacing back and forth in the den, "We leave for a few days and suddenly vampires are here!"

"Willa, I agree, however you should lower your voice." I said, Wynter agreeing. "Ugh, I'm sorry...I let my emotions get the better of me." She apologized. "Well, we all know that the vampires are not up to anything good." Wynter said. "Mhm," I nodded, "We just have to find out what they're planning."

"Hello?" A voice echoed from outside the den. The person walked in and we saw it was Riley, followed by Zed and A-Spen. "Willa." A-Spen said, walking up to her and holding her hands. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, A-Spen." Willa assured. "Are you really? Since you really seemed angry when you walked off." They worried. "Really, A-Spen, I'm fine." Willa repeated, smiling. The two walked off and Riley asked, "Can you explain why werewolves and vampires hate one another?"

"Okay." I groaned, sitting down, Riley and Zed copying me. "I don't know if you noticed, but the vampires also have moonstone necklaces." I said, fidgeting with mine, "600 years ago, long before Seabrook settlers came in, werewolves had the moonstone stolen." Wynter explained. "They searched for 70 years, aching at the loss of the precious life-bringer, until they came across more beings with moonstone necklaces." I said.

"Vampires." Zed said and I nodded. "Yeah, the wolves were furious at the vampire kind and that fury started a 100 year war between the two species, each taking the moonstone back and forth at different times."

"Finally, the vampires called of the war...however they swore they'd be back one day to take what, they believe, is rightfully theirs." Wynter said, finishing off the story. "Well...they seemed nice enough when we showed them around town." Riley stated, making Wynter and I widen our eyes.

"You showed them around town? Oh no, no, no, no, no!" Wynter exclaimed. "The vampires are plotting something, we wolves are sure of that. It's better to not interact with them at all." I said. "Oh, come on, Wy, they can't be that bad. You heard them, they just want to be accepted. We've done it thrice before." Zed stated.

I sighed and told them I was gonna head to bed. "Okay, we'll see you tomorrow, Wy Wy." Riley said, leaning up to give me a kiss. "Night, Wy Wy." Zed said, leaning down to kiss me. "Goodnight, loves." I replied, before walking to my room.

~~~

Riley POV

Zed walked me back home. "Goodnight, Zeddie." I said, as we reached my house. "Goodnight, Ry Ry." Zed responded, before giving me a kiss. I waved to him, closed the door, and walked up to my room. I wished my parents good night and closed the door, plopping down onto my bed and shutting my eyes.

~~~

Vanna POV

"Vanna, wake up, sister." Vincent said, shaking me awake. "I'm up, I'm up." I replied, rubbing the sleep out of my eyes. "Mom and Dad want to see us." Vincent said, waking me up for sure. "Okay."

We walked out of my room and down the hall to our parent's rooms. "Hi, honeys." Mom said, before coughing loudly, Dad following in her footsteps. "A-are you guys...feeling okay?" I asked, walking closer to their bed. "The same as always, sweetie." Dad answered, coughing again.

"Don't worry, we've gained Seabrook's trust...we think." Vincent said. "B-but anyway, we will help you. No matter what we have to do."

"Son...Please do not harm anybody. I know you both were taught how vile werewolves were to us by your grandparents, but," He paused to let out another cough, "Please, don't hurt anyone. Our health isn't worth starting another war."

"I can't promise that, Dad." Vincent replied, before walking out. "Vanna..." Mom said, "Yeah?" I replied, holding her hands. "Make sure...th-that your brother doesn't do anything reckless." She told me. "B-but we need to help you guys! No matter what!" I said, starting to tear up.

"Vanna. Promise us." Dad pleaded. I thought it over for a second. "I-I...I c-can't." I said, before running out of their room, ignoring their pleads as I shut the door. "Let's go." I told Vincent.

~~~

As we all walked towards Seabrook, Vance said that he wanted to talk to me. We strayed to the back of the group so that nobody could hear our conversation.

"What?" I asked.

"Listen, before I say this...I need you to promise me you won't tell Vincent."

"Umm...okay?"

He sighed, "I think...I think that colorful boy from yesterday..."

"Go on."

"I think he's really cute."

My eyes widened, "Oh, damn..."

"Please, for the love of god, don't tell Vincent. He'll rip me to pieces!"

"I won't, Vance. I know I don't show it, but your like a second brother to me." I said, before hugging him. "Thanks, Vanna." He replied, hugging back.

~~~

"Hi guys!" Riley exclaimed, running up to Vance, Vincent, and I as we strayed from the other vamps and entered Seabrook. "Hello...Riley." Vincent said. 'Damn, it's been a day and you already forgot his name, dumbass.' I thought. "Do you guys have anything in mind? Any activities you wanna do?" He asked.

"Y'all got a breakfast place? I'm starving." Vance replied, causing Vincent to glare daggers at him. "Well, we have a pizza place. Would that work?" Riley replied. "Actually-" Vincent started, before I cut him off, "Yeah, sounds great."

~~~

Riley placed down our order and sat down next to Vance in the booth. "Dig in." He smiled. I was the first to grab a slice and take a bite...and boy was it the best thing I've tasted in forever. Seeing my face, Vincent grabbed a slice, bit into it as well, and had my same reaction. Vance followed in our footsteps.

Riley giggled and said, "I see you all like it.", "DUH, this is the best thing I've tasted in a good while!" I exclaimed, reaching for another slice. A waiter then placed a bowl of bread at our table and Riley thanked him, before taking one and biting into it. "What's that?" Vance asked. "Garlic bread, y'all want some?"

We all gave him an "are you serious?" look. Riley then laughed awkwardly, "Oh, yeah, right."

"Oh, that reminds me!" He said, "How come you guys don't burn in sunlight?" He asked. "We do. We just lather ourselves in sunscreen every time we go out." Vincent explained. "Wait, every time? Like at night too?" Riley asked. "Well, yeah. Moonlight is reflected sunlight, thus it still hurts us." Vance informed him.

We all heard the ringing of a bell as someone walked into the place, that someone being one of the wolves. "Oh hi, Wy Wy." Riley said, "Can I talk to you for a moment?" 'Wy Wy' asked. "Oh sure, I'll be right back." He told us before walking away with him. "Who was that guy?" Vance asked. "Judging by his mannerisms, a very close friend or a significant other." Vincent replied, making Vance's face drop. "O-oh."

Riley POV

"You're still hanging out with them? After everything I told you last night?" Wyatt said, as we sat down at a far away booth. "Oh come on, they don't seem that bad." I replied. "Seem being a key word there." He replied. "Plus, I don't like the way the vampire sitting next to you was looking at you." He added. 'Oh, jealousy strikes again.' I thought.

"Well, Zed was jealous as well when he saw us hugging in the gym. You wanna know what we did to relieve him of those feelings?" I said, sitting down on his lap. Wyatt immediately caught on, so I wrapped my legs around him and he carried me into the bathroom and into a stall.

(Smut Warning)

Wyatt pressed me up against the door and we started to make out. He licked my bottom lip, asking for an entrance and I gave it to him. We explored every crevice of one another's mouths, before pulling away for air. Wyatt unzipped our pants and pulled out our erections. "Let's try something new, shall we?"

He ground our erections together, making me moan at the newly found pleasure. He started to suck on my neck, making me moan even more, as he now knew where my weak spot was. "Wy Wy~" I moaned, throwing my head back. Wyatt then grabbed our shafts and started to jerk us off, gradually increasing his speed.

Wyatt lifted up my shirt and started to suck on my right nipple, increasing the level of arousal I was feeling. Wyatt stopped to give equal attention to my left nipple, as I tangled my fingers in his hair and tried to refrain from being too loud. After he pulled away, I lift up his shirt and started to return the favor.

"F-fuck." Wyatt moaned into my ear. I lifted his head and we started to make out again as he continued his jerks. I could feel my orgasm incoming and I pulled away and rested my head on Wyatt's shoulder. "Ry, I'm c-close." He informed me, "Me too." I replied. Not long after that we both came all over each other's chests, going in for one last kiss. "You were right, I am relieved of my jealousy." He teased. I giggled, "We should clean ourselves up, they're probably wondering why we were gone for so long."

~~~

We walked out of the bathroom and as we walked back to our table I told Wyatt I wanted him to be nice to the vampires. "Hey, guys." I said as we sat down. "This is Wyatt, he's one of my boyfriends." I explained. "One of?" Vance questioned. "Yeah, remember Zed? He's also our boyfriend." I replied.

Vanna POV

"Like I said yesterday, we promise we vampires have put the past behind us." Vincent fibbed. "Yeah, we're all good." I said, faking a smile. Wyatt glared at us before softening his look. "I'll put aside our past," He said, holding out a hand, "Let's start over. I'm Wyatt, nice to meet y'all."

Vincent shook his hand and we all made small talk as we finished our pizza.

~~~

"It was nice meeting you." I said. "Right back at ya." Wyatt replied. "Well, we ought to head out now, it's getting late." Vance said, before the three of us walked towards the door. "Oh, wait!" Riley said, making the three of us turn to look at him. "Would you all like to come to a zombie rave?" He asked. "What's that?" I asked. "Oh, it's like a party, only ten times better!" He exclaimed.

"There's one happening tonight. You three are free to come." Wyatt spoke. "We'll think about it." Vincent said, knowing full well he wasn't gonna go. "Okay, if you do decide to come, we'll be waiting at the entrance to Zombietown at around...10:30." Riley told us. We nodded and walked out to go round up the other vampires to head home. "Sooo..." Vance said as we walked. "Are we gonna go to that rave?"

"What? No. Absolutely not! We don't have time for parties! We need to focus on getting a plan to take back the moonstone!" Vincent yelled, luckily no one was around to hear that last part. "Vincent! Keep your voice down, you imbecile!" I commanded. "Sorry..." He replied, "But we still aren't going."

"Why not? We have plenty of time." Vance pleaded. Vincent and I looked at him, furiously, and he backed down. "Good." I smirked.

~~~

Vance POV

Later that night, when I was sure everyone was asleep, I snuck out of my house and started down the road to exit Vampireville. "I had a sneaking suspicion I'd find you out here." A voice from behind me said. I turned to be face to face with Vanna. "Oh...uh...I-I...I was j-just gon-"

"Sneak out to the Zombie Rave?" Vanna interrupted. "Yeah." I sighed. She didn't look as mad as I thought she would be. "I'm coming with you." She said, walking past me. "Oh...uh, okay." I replied, grateful she didn't kill me right there and then.

Vanna POV

"I'm coming with you." I said, walking past him. What? Just because I may be facing some mild sadness doesn't mean I can't party.

~~~

A few minutes later we arrived at the entrance to Zombietown with Riley, Wyatt, and Zed waiting for us. "I'm glad you two decided to come." Riley smiled. "Yeah, Vincent was busy..." Vance lied. "Well, come on!" Zed said, starting to run off. "Follow me!"

We followed him to an elevator, then Zed pressed a button and a few seconds later the doors opened and we got in. "So, what type of party is this?" I asked. "Oh it is much more than just a party." Zed said. "It's a rave."

"Uhh, okay." Vance and I said in unison. "Don't worry. I guarantee you will love it!" Riley said to us. Then the elevator doors opened, revealing the biggest party I've ever seen in my 118 years of life. "Woah." Vance and I said, mouths agape. "Told ya." Riley teased. "Come on, our favorite song is about to start!" Wyatt said, running out with Riley and Zed. Vance and I looked at each other. "This is only to see if we can find some of Seabrook's weaknesses." I repeated. "Yeah...right." Vance replied. We both smiled and floated after the three.

Vanna POV

"Yo, that was fucking awesome!" Vance laughed. "Yeah, this the greatest rave I've ever been to!" I yelled. "It's the only rave I've ever been to, but y'all get the point." I added, making everyone laugh. "I'm glad you like it here." Addison said. "Now, come on, we have a fro-yo cart!" Riley said, grabbing Vance and I's hands and dragging us to a cart.

"What flavor would you like?" Riley asked. "Oh, do y'all have blood? Human, preferably." Vance said, making Riley give a concerned look. "Uhhh...no. We do have strawberry, though." Riley replied, scooping some, putting it in a little cup and handing it to Vance. "Eh, close enough to the color." Vance shrugged, before scooping some with a little spoon.

He stuck his fangs into it and immediately redacted back in recoil. "Woah! You don't suck the nutrients out of cold treats! You just lick or eat it." Riley explained. Vance then ate the fro-yo regularly. Judging by the look on his face he loved it. "Wow, this is pretty good!" He said, stuffing his face again.

After that we played a ton of party games with Riley and his friends, until we realized what time it was. "Oh shit! Vanna, we gotta go!" Vance said, showing me his phone that read: 4:21 A.M. "Oh shit, we do!" I exclaimed. "Sorry guys, we gotta get back to Vampireville, we'll see you tomor-uhm...in a few hours!" I said, before grabbing Vance's hand and rushing out. "Okay bye, sleep well!" Addison yelled after us.

~~~

As soon as the elevator doors opened Vance and I floated out of Seabrook as fast as we could, making it back to Vampireville in a few minutes. "We never speak of this." I told Vance. "Never speak of what?" Vance replied. I fist bumped him and we headed our separate ways to our houses.

I slowly opened up the door and crept inside. I floated down the hallway, almost making to my room, before...

"Where. The. Fuck. Were. You."

I slowly turned around, and as I suspected, was met with my brother's dumb face. "This little place called Nunya." I replied, reaching for the doorknob to my room. "You were at that fucking party, weren't you?" Vincent said, baring his fangs.

"Maybe I was. Maybe I wasn't. Who knows?"

"Vanna."

"Vincent."

"I said to not go."

"You ain't the boss of me, fuckwad."

"Well, since our parents are sick, that make me the temporary leader."

"Temporary being a key word there."

"Vanna, so help me, I will-"

"You will do nothing." I said, walking into my room. I heard Vincent groan and stomp back to his room as I locked my door. 'Fucking asshole.'

"Goodnight, Skweeks." I said, floating up to my bed. Skweeks squeaked back a response and cuddled up against me, as we both drifted off.

Chapter 29: It Is Time

Vanna POV

I woke up, still feeling tired, and heard my name being called. "Vanna! Wake up!" I heard Vincent yell from outside my room. I groaned, got down from my bed, and opened up my door. "Oh my. You look tired. I take it you didn't get much sleep?" Vincent told me, grinning. "I'm not in the mood for your bull, brother."

Vincent laughed and told me, "Well, get dressed and meet us all outside." He then walked away.

~~~

I got dressed and before I went outside, I decided to talk with Mom and Dad. I knocked on their door and heard mom say, "Come in."

I walked in and walked up to my sick parents. "Hey guys." I said, "How ya holdin' up?"

"We've had better days." Dad joked. He always did have time for jokes, no matter the moment. I chuckled and then told them, "Listen, I-I...I think I can...promise to not h-hurt anyone for the moonstone."

Both their faces lit up. "Wonderful news, honey." Mom smiled, "I'm glad you two agreed."

"Actually...It's just me...and Vance I'm pretty sure." I explained. "Well, try to convince your brother, okay?" Mom asked. "I'll try." I nodded. "We love you, Vanna." Dad told me, before I walked out. "I love you both, too." I said, bore walking out of their room.

~~~

Wyatt POV

"I still can't believe you actually trust them!" Wynter shouted. "All because your precious lovers told you to!"

"Wynter..." Willa said, before getting cut off, "Don't. I can't believe you two!" She growled, punching a wall and leaving a big crack. "Wynter...This isn't about us trusting vampires...Is it." I said, knowing how lonely the she wolf had been feeling lately. "I-I...it's just not fair..." Wynter sobbed, sitting down and hugging her legs to her chest.

Willa and I sat next to her, to try and comfort her as she continued to rant. "You have A-Spen, Addison has Eliza, Bonzo has Bree...Wyatt you have two lovers and I can't even get one." She whimpered. "There's plenty of fish in the sea, Wyn." I said, "Yeah, it may not be right now, but you'll find someone who likes you." Willa added. Wynter sniffled, "Thanks guys."

~~~

Riley POV

Addie and I walked along the shore of the beach. Just making some small talk since we haven't hung out, just the two of us, for a while. The conversations then turned into what we planned on doing for Seabrook's new talent show, but suddenly we both heard an angelic voice singing.

(Part of Your World from The Little Mermaid)

???

Maybe he's right
Maybe there is something the matter with me
I just don't see how a world that makes such wonderful things could be bad
Look at this stuff

Isn't it neat?
Wouldn't you think my collection's complete?
Wouldn't you think I'm the girl
The girl who has everything?

Look at this trove
Treasures untold
How many wonders can one cavern hold?
Looking around here you'd think

Sure, she's got everything
I've got gadgets and gizmos a-plenty
I've got whozits and whatzits galore
You want thingamabobs?

I've got twenty!
But who cares?
No big deal
I want more

I wanna be where the people are
I wanna see, wanna see 'em dancin'
Walking around on those, what do you call 'em?
Oh, feet

Flippin' your fins, you don't get too far
Legs are required for jumping, dancing
Strolling along down the, what's that word again?
Street

Up where they walk, up where they run
Up where they stay all day in the sun
Wanderin' free, wish I could be
Part of that world

What would I give if I could live out of these waters?
What would I pay to spend a day warm on the sand?
Bet'cha on land they understand
Bet they don't reprimand their daughters

Bright young women, sick of swimmin'
Ready to stand
And ready to know what the people know
Ask 'em my questions and get some answers

What's a fire and why does it, what's the word?
Burn?
When's it my turn?
Wouldn't I love, love to explore that shore up above?

Out of the sea
Wish I could be
Part of that world

Addie and I looked around for who was singing so beautifully, until we spotted someone perched on a rock. "Hey!" I shouted, causing the person to whip their head around to face us. She had long, blonde hair, pretty pale skin, and...a fish tail? "Oh...uh hello." The girl said, meekly.

"Are you a mermaid?!" Addie exclaimed, her face lighting up. The girl nodded. "What your name?" I asked, causing her to hide behind the rock even more. "My name's Riley." I said, trying to encourage her to talk to us. "And I'm Addison." Addie said. "Um...I'm Madelyn...but most people call me Maddie." She said, peeking over the rock a little more.

"You have an amazing voice." I complemented, causing Maddie to smile, "Th-thanks."

"Who's the person you sang about in the beginning?" Addie asked. "Oh, my dad, the king of our kingdom, doesn't want merfolk to socialize with humans." Maddie explained. "Why not?" I asked. Maddie jumped into the water and re-emerged closer to us on the shore.

"In the past...humans hunted our species. They believed we merfolk made ships crash with our voices. They were wrong however, it was Sirens who caused such damage." Maddie explained. "That's awful!" Addie said and I nodded in agreement. "Listen, my dad is probably looking for me...I gotta go." Maddie said, waving goodbye to us as she submerged herself underwater.

"Wow, new species have really just been rollin' in, huh?" I said, causing Addie to chuckle, "Yup."

~~~

Vanna POV

"Mermaids? Jeez is Seabrook a species magnet or something?" I said, as I walked through the town with Addison and Riley. "I know, right?" Addison said. "So...I've been talking to the wolves...and they might be willing to share the moonstone with y'all." Riley said, giving me a smile. This time when I smiled back, it was genuine.

"Hello you three." Vincent said, floating up to us. "Ya mind if I borrow my sister for a sec?" Riley and Addison nodded and Vincent pulled me away from them and around a corner. "I see you getting all buddy-buddy with those people here. May I remind you that we came here for one reason and one reason only. Take back our moonstone."

"Okay first of all," I said, jabbing Vincent's chest with my finger, "Their names are Riley and Addison. Second of all, so what? I can have friends! And I would gladly appreciate if you stopped being such a bastard all the time!" By the time I was done with my rant, a lot of people around were staring. "Get a life, brother." I added, walking back to my friends.

~~~

"It was nice hanging out with you." Addison said, as we walked through Zombietown. "Thanks, right back at you both. You guys are fun to be around." I replied, giving another genuine smile. "It is getting late...shouldn't you be heading home?" Riley asked, looking up at the sky. "Oh yeah." I replied, "I'll see you tomorrow?"

They nodded and I gave them a smile before floating off into the woods in the direction of Vampireville. Boy, was I not prepared for what was gonna happen in the span of a couple days.

"Sister." Vincent said, dryly, as I got home. "What?" I answered, annoyed. "It is time."

Chapter 30: Caught

Vanna POV

"What do you mean, Vincent?" I asked, scowling at him. "It's time we take back our moonstone!" He hissed. "Tonight, at three, we will go to retrieve it."

"A.M.?"

"Yes, now go get as much sleep as you can. I want you and all the other vampires on high alert in case we're about to get caught."

"Listen, can't we just share it? The werewolves seem nice eno-"

"Excuse me? Were you going to use 'werewolf' and 'nice' in the same sentence?" Vincent interrupted, giving me a serious look.

"I-"

"Listen, Vanna, I think it's time I retold you what our grandparents always told us."

(Evil Like Me from Descendants)

Vincent

I was once like you, dear sis, slightly insecure

"I'm no-"

Vincent

Argued with my elders too, thought I was mature
But I pushed my heart aside and I used my head

"That's rare for you."

Vincent

Now I think it's time you remembered what our grandparents said
Don't you wanna be evil like me?

"No."

Vincent

Don't you wanna be mean?

"Only to you."

Vincent

Don't you wanna make mischief your daily routine?
Well, you can spend your life attending to the poor

But when you're evil doing less is doing more
Don't you wanna be ruthless and rotten and mad?
Don't you wanna be very, very good at being bad?

Vamps have tried their whole existence
To take back the moonstone
Clawed our way to victory
To take back what we own

Now the time has come, my sis
For us to take revenge
Now you'll hafta promise me
That them you won't avenge

Don't you wanna be evil like me?
Don't you wanna be cruel?
Don't you wanna be nasty and brutal and cool?
And when we grab that stone that's when our reign begins

Who wants an evil vamp without a sack of sins?
Don't you wanna be heartless and hardened as stone?
Don't you wanna be blood suckin' evil to the bone?

This is not for us to ponder
This was preordained
Vampire kind shall rule together
Freedom soon regain

Masters of the universe, powerful and strong
Vanna, hear me
Help me, join me
Won't you sing along?

"No."

Vincent

Now we're gonna be evil, it's true
Never gonna think twice
And we're gonna be spiteful
Yes, spiteful, that's nice

In just an hour or two
Our future's safe and sure
This monster of an act is going on a tour

If you wanna be evil and awful and free
Then you should thank your lucky star
That you were born the girl you are
The sister of an evilicious vamp

Like me!

"Ya done?"

"Ugh, whatever, don't listen. Just know if you double cross us." He activated his moonstone, eyes glowing a bright purple, "Things won't be pretty."

~~~

We all floated through the forest, trying our best not to be noisy. "Vanna." Someone whispered to me. I turned around, to see Steve with a nervous look on his face. "What if I told you that I didn't wanna betray Seabrook." Steve said, looking down. "I don't wanna either, but Vincent is a stuck up little dickweed and my parents made him temporary leader. So by vampire law we have to do what he says." I said, patting him on the back. "Yeah, don't worry, most of us don't want to through with this either." Vanessa said, overhearing our conversation.

"Really?" I said, surprised. "Yeah, Seabrook isn't as bad as Vincent told us." Vicky said, walking into our conversation. "I'm glad I'm not the only one." Vance added. "What are you lot whispering about?" Vincent asked. "Nothing. Nothing at all, brother."

~~~

After another few minutes of walking, we all arrived at Zombietown. "Okay, nobody make a single decibel." Vincent ordered, as we floated our way through the place. "There it is." He said, spotting the moonstone. "Hey, what's with the glum looks?" Vincent asked, "Come on! We're going to save our elders, cheer up will y'all?"

He turned around and peeked his head around a corner to see if the coast was clear. "Come on, we're good."

We all levitated towards the moonstone, we managed to grip onto it before I picked up on a familiar scent. "Retreat!" I whisper-yelled, "Werewolves!"

We all scrambled to find a hiding place, before hearing someone walk by.

"Stupid Seabrook, believing vampires are good. I can't believe this place!" A she wolf said, walking past the moonstone. She then suddenly stopped walking and started to sniff the area. 'Oh shit, she's picked up on our scent.' I thought. "I knew they were not to be trusted!" She stated.

"Listen, I know you all can hear me!" She yelled. "Just know that I'm not stayin' quiet!"

~~~

"Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit!" I repeated, pacing around my room. "What the fuck are we gonna do? They're gonna think we're bad people!"

"Vanna, calm down. We just gotta explain ourselves." Vance said. "I'm sure they'll understand." I sighed and sat down next to Vance on my bed, placing my head on his shoulder. "I really like Seabrook. I don't wanna lose friends I just made." I explained. Vance placed his head on mine, "Don't worry, Vanna. We will make this right, even if we have to upset your bitch of a brother."

I chuckled, "Thanks, Vance."

"For?"

"For being here for me."

"Always and whenever."

~~~

I woke up next to Vance and Skweeks on my bed. "Vance, wake up." I shook him, "Mama, give me five more minutes." Vance replied in his half-awake state. "Vance, come on. We gotta go to Seabrook. Let's hope they don't end up hating us."

"Fine. Fine. I'm up." He said, rubbing the drowsiness from his eyes. "Hey, how come ya never bring Skweeks to Seabrook. I'm sure he'd love it." Vance said, booping Skweeks on his nose. "Huh, never thought of it. Would you like that, Skweeks?" I asked. Skweeks then squeaked happily and flew around my head, making Vance and I chuckle.

We got ready and headed outside to try to explain ourselves. "Where are you going?" Vincent asked as we walked past him. "Nunya." I replied, flipping him off and walking away.

~~~

We got to the edge of the forbidden forest in a few minutes.

"Wynter could've told everyone in Seabrook so people could be very suspicious of us." Vance stated. "Who?" I asked, referring to the name he said. "Wynter, the wolf who said she was gonna tattle on us last night. She's really nice." Vance explained, his face morphing into a goofy grin when he said that last part. "You sure move on fast." I said. "Whaddya mean?"

"I mean you liked Riley and now your obviously crushing on that Wynter chick." I explained, seeing Vance's face go red. "You're making me sound desperate!" He complained, pouting. "That's cause you are." He scoffed, "Rude!"

~~~

We walked through the town and looked around, "It doesn't seem like anyone's suspicious of us." Vance said, which I replied to with a nod. "Looks like she didn't blab." Vance added, smiling his goofy grin again. "You are sooo lovesick." "Shut uuuup!"

We got to Riley's house and knocked on his front door. A few seconds later we heard footsteps and then the door opened, revealing a woman I vaguely remember seeing at our "Offical Welcoming" to Seabrook. "Hello, you must be Riley's mom?" I said. "Yes, I am. You can call me Gwendolyn." She said, giving us a bright smile.

"Okay, is Riley here, Gwen?" Vance asked.

"I said Gwendolyn, don't push it." She replied, still smiling. "Oh, and yes he's up his room. When you go up the stairs it's the second door on the left."

"Okay, thank you Gwendolyn." I replied.

Vance, Skweeks, and I all flew up the stairs and followed the directions that Gwendolyn gave us. We got to Riley's room and opened up the door, immediately regretting our decision when we saw the scene before us. Riley was pinned up against his headboard while Wyatt was making out with him and Zed was sucking on Riley's nipple.

We immediately shut the door in embarrassment. "S-sorry, we forgot to knock!" I squealed, hearing an "It's fine!" answer me. Vance, Skweeks, and I gave them a few minutes to get dressed and knocked on the door this time. "Come in." Riley stated. We entered his room and pretend as if nothing happened. "Hey, we just wanted to come over to explain ourselves." I said.

"For what?" Zed asked, looking confused. "Oh, I guess she didn't tell you guys." Vance said, smiling again. Skweeks gave him a sly grin and I started to explain what happened last night.

"That's odd. Wynter didn't say anything to us last night." Wyatt said, when I was done talking. "Maybe because she didn't wanna hurt a certain someone." I teased, giving Vance a knowing look. He looked away, face red, and the three of them immediately caught on to what I was saying.

"Ooooooooooh!" Riley joked, getting a look from Vance. He giggled and then said, "Well, maybe we can convince your brother that Seabrook ain't so bad."

"We tried, however Vincent is not an understanding person." I said, looking at Vance. Vance awkwardly rubbed his arm with the other and said, "Y-yeah."

Wyatt seemed to get what we were implying and gave Vance an apologetic look. "I know how that feels. Some of the elders still don't approve of Willa and I's relationships." He said, causing Zed and Riley to kiss his cheeks and give him warm smiles. "Now, enough with the sappy stuff, let's try to find a way to convince your brother not to be a giant douche." Riley said.

"Oh, yeah? How." Vance asked. "I...don't know. However I know we will!" Riley replied, trying to stay optimistic. He then suddenly gasped. "Who's this little cutie?" Riley asked, referring to Skweeks. "Oh, this is my pet bat. His name is Skweeks." I explained. "Can I hold him? Can I? Can I?" Riley exclaimed, practically jumping up and down, making us all laugh. "Of course."

~~~

The five of us spent a couple minutes going over different was we could convince Vincent, however they conversation somehow changed to talking about college. "I've been wondering...is it possible for y'all to come to Mountain College with us?" Riley asked, while rubbing Skweeks' belly.

"Oh yeah, I forgot you humans have four extra years of school." I say, "I mean, we did just graduate from our high school so...I guess we could."

Satisfied with my answer, Riley claps his hands and pulls me into a hug, "Yay!"

I chuckle and hug him back. He then lets go of me and takes out his laptop. "Here you guys can use this to sign up."

~~~ (I know it's probably unlikely for you to make a college application during the summer transitioning from high school to college, but logic doesn't exist when it comes to DCOMs.)

After I was done signing up I handed the laptop to Vance for him to do the same. "So, back on topic." Zed says, "What can we do to convince Vincent."

"I...I think I have an idea that might work. However it's gonna be a lot to ask for." I said, turning to Wyatt. "We either have to get the moonstone to my parents or get my parents to the moonstone."

Chapter 31: Vincent’s Villain Arc

Riley POV

We all turned to Wyatt to see his answer. "Well...Willa, Wynter, and I could talk to the elders about it." Wyatt said. "I'm not sure that they'll say yes, however."

We all nodded. "Now. We need to find a way for you to tell Wynter how you feel." Vanna said, nudging Vance. "W-w-what? No! No! That isn't necessary!" Vance replied, his face flushing a bright red. "Aww, come on, it'll be adorable! You two are great together!" I said, trying to convince him. "You really think so?" He asked. "Mhm." I replied, nodding. "We just need to figure out how."

"What do you mean?"

"Well, do you want it to be extravagant or you just wanna tell her in private?"

"In private, preferably."

I nodded and decided to change the subject. "Sooooo...Y'all wanna play some video games?" I asked the vampires. "Oh, sure! Which ones ya got?" Vanna replied. "Ry's got mostly Pokémon and Mario games." Wyatt answered for me. "What can I say? I like Nintendo."

"Ooh, we can play Mario Kart." Vance suggested pointing to the copy of the game on my shelf. "Good choice." I replied, grinning maniacally. "Good choice, indeed."

~~~

"Wow. This was a bad choice." Vance said, after loosing his 6th round. "We tried to warn ya." Zed said. "Mhm. Never play against RyRy in Mario Kart." Wyatt added. "It doesn't help that you suck at video games, anyway." Vanna said to Vance, making him fake being offended.

We then heard a knock on my door. "Riley, dinners ready." Mom said from the other side. "Okay, we'll be down in a minute." I responded, "Would you two like to stay for dinner?" I asked our houseguests. "Sure, why not?" Vance replied. "What are we having anyway?" Vanna asked me. "Dad is cooking today, so It's probably his famous lasagna." I responded. "Oh, you are going to love RyRy's dad's lasagna!" Zed said, rushing downstairs. "Babe, calm down!" Wyatt laughed, as we all followed behind Zed.

~~~

"Wow! Your cooking is great, Mr.Wilson!" Vance complemented, finishing his plate. "Thank you, Vance." Dad replied. After some small talk Vance and Vanna eventually had to leave. My parents went back up to their room and wished Zed, Wyatt, and I a goodnight, leaving the three of us alone in the living room.

(Smut Warning)

Wyatt then started to suck and bite my neck, finding my weak spot quickly. "R-really? I-in the living room?"

"Mhm, we need to find other places to bone, sweetheart." Wyatt whispered, sending shivers down my spine. Zed then started to unbutton my shirt and left kisses along my chest. "F-fine." I complied, "Let's j-just try to be quiet."

Zed pulled of my shirt and left kisses down my body, before reaching my crotch. He unzipped my jeans and pulled them and my underwear down. Zed licked my tip, before shoving all of me in his mouth. "Fuck, Zeddie~" I moaned, leaning into Wyatt. As Zed continued to suck me off, Wyatt undressed himself and went back to abusing my neck, this time rubbing his cock against my ass in the process.

I felt myself coming close to my climax as Zed continued to blow me. "Zeddie, I'm c-close." I told him, feeling my sack tighten. I came into his mouth, trying my best not to moan too loud. Zed took me out of his mouth, making a lewd 'pop'. "Up for a spit roasting sesh, hon?" Zed asked, making me choke on my saliva because of his directness. "Mhm." I answered, nodding.

With that, Zed grabbed my hips, flipped me over, and started to lick my hole. "Z-Zeddie!" I exclaimed, surprised at how quick he was. Wyatt put a finger on my lips, "Shhh, we don't wanna get caught, darling~"

I nodded and Wyatt slapped me with his length. "Suck." He demanded. I obliged and started to throat him, as Zed continued to prep me with his saliva. Wyatt began thrusting his hips forward, hitting the back of my neck with each thrust. "Fuck yeah, Ry, suck that dick." He snarled, activating his moonstone and speeding up.

Zed stopped rimming me and I heard him take off his clothes, not long after that I felt him start to align himself with me. "You ready, baby?" I mumbled an "Mhm" while choking on Wyatt's shaft. "Careful, sweetie." Wyatt said, slowing down for a split second before speeding up again. Zed slowly inserted his manhood into me, causing me to let out a muffled moan into Wyatt's dick.

Zed let out a low growl, swiping on his Z-Band. "We're gonna destroy you." Zed and Wyatt both growled. After they said that, they both started to inhumanly thrust into me while making out with one another. Zed began to stroke me, matching up with his thrusts and driving me closer to a second orgasm. After many more thrusts I felt both of them start to twitch, "I'm so close, f-fuck." Wyatt moans. "Me t-too." Zed adds.

A few seconds I swallowed all of Wyatt's seed and Zed shot inside of me, and I came for the second time that night. Wyatt pulled out from me, giving me an easier time breathing. "I love you, babe." Wyatt told me, giving me a kiss. "So do...I." Zed said, still panting. "I love you both so much." I replied.

~~~

Vanna POV

I woke up to Skweeks nudging me. "What's wrong, buddy?" I asked, rubbing my eyes. Skweeks squeaked out a reply. "Someone's knocking on the front door?" I repeated, confused. Just then I heard another knock. "Jeez, who the hell could this be?" I asked myself, as I walked downstairs to open up the door.

"What are you three doing here? Especially at this time, it's 3 AM!" I asked the three wolves at my doorstep.

"Sorry, we rushed over as soon as we heard the good news." Wynter said. I gave her a confused glance. "Oh, yeah, right." The she wolf responded. "The elders said yes to using the moonstone to help your parents."

"All of your elders, actually." Willa added, making my eyes widen (and waking me up for sure now). "Really?" I asked, "That's awesome!"

"What. The fuck. Is happening!" Vincent yelled out, floating downstairs. "It's three in the god damn morning!"

"Nothing, brother, go back to sleep." I replied. "What are you doing here?" Vincent asked, pointing to the wolves. "We we're just telling Vanna how our elders have agreed to share the moonstone with vampires." Wyatt clarified. We didn't know it now, but telling Vincent that would be a grave mistake.

Vincent widened his eyes for a split second before looking down. "Brother...what's up with you?"

"No."

"Huh?"

"NO!" He exclaimed, activating his moonstone. "Vampires and werewolves are not supposed to mix!" He snarled. "Woah, clam down dude." Wyatt said. "Yeah, quit being so uptight, Vincent." I added. "You. Are a traitor. I can't believe you." Vincent told me, and...not gonna lie that stung a little. "Calm down, Vincent." Willa said. "Shut your yap, you filthy mutt!" Vincent hissed. "Woah, that was uncalled for!" I spoke up.

Vincent then started to fully vamp-out, having his nails and teeth sharpen. "I WILL END THIS FUCKING WAR MYSELF! FOR MY PARENTS, SINCE THEY'RE THE ONLY FAMILY I HAVE LEFT!" Vincent then used his super speed to dash out of the house. "W-where the fuck is he going?!" Wyatt exclaimed. "The moonstone!" I realized, "We gotta stop him!"

"How? He's faster than all of us." Wynter stated. "Not faster than me." I said, activating my own moonstone. "I'm gonna go after him, you three round up some help, Vance lives two houses right from here." I told them. The wolves nodded and I gave them all a group hug before leaving, "Thank you for being my friends." I then vamped-out and sped after my brother.

Wyatt POV

"Alright, you heard her." Willa said after Vanna sped out of the house. "Come on let's tell Vance."

We all ran over to Vance's house and knocked on his door. A few minutes later, it was open by somebody we didn't expect. "Who are you three?" A little boy asked us. "We're friends of Vance, do you mind getting him?" I said. The kid nodded and floated upstairs to go get, what I assume to be, his big brother. "I didn't know Vance had a little brother." Willa stated. "I know right, he's so adorable." Wynter smiled. "You talkin' about his little brother or Vance?" I teased. "Sh-shut up!" Wynter said, blushing.

A few seconds later Vance floated downstairs and greeted us. "Hi guys. What's going on? Avery said you sounded worried."

The three of us caught him up on what was happening. "Oh...wow, uh, okay! I'll help." He said. "Vance." His younger brother said from behind him. "Stay safe. Please."

Vance kneeled down to give his brother a hug. "I will, I promise. Now, go back to bed." He replied. "I love you." Avery told him. "I love you too, lil bro." Vance replied. Avery then floated upstairs back up to his room. "Okay, come on, let's go round up everyone else." Willa stated.

Vanna POV

I ran through the forest, following Vincent's scent as I clawed through the brush in my way. 'You are not gonna get away with this, brother.' I thought, 'I can't let you get away with this.' I eventually reached Zombietown and made a beeline towards the moonstone. There he was, trying to pry the moonstone off the ground. "Vincent! You need to stop! You know mom and dad wouldn't want this!"

"They don't know what they want!"

"They're adults! Not little kids, and they're still your parents. We care about you, brother. You don't have to do this."

"Yes. I do!" He screamed, lunging at me. He swiped at me, but luckily I dodged his attack in time. "What the hell!?" I yelled. We were lucky that zombies are such heavy sleepers, otherwise most of the town would be up by now. "You are nothing but a backstabber!" Vincent growled. He then lunged at me again, however I wasn't fortunate this time because Vincent had me pinned to the ground. "Vincent...please." I pleaded, my eyes starting to well with tears.

"I wish I could say that I was sorry, but that would be a lie." He responded. I closed my eyes, waiting for the pain to override my body, but that never came. I heard a screech and opened my eyes to see Vance, also vamped-out, ramming into Vincent's side. "You stay away from her!" He screeched. I sat up, catching my breath, and noticed Wyatt, Wynter, and Willa had recruited Zed, Riley, Eliza, and Addison. "Are you okay?" Riley asked, as they all approached me. "I'll be fine." I assured, giving them a smile.

"What the hell happened?" Eliza asked. Before I could explain, a loud screech caught our attention and we all looked towards. Vincent was standing over Vance, who now had a gash on his face. "Vance!" I cried, getting up a tackling Vincent out of the way. "Are you oka-" I tried to say, before Vincent slashed my back, causing me to fall to the floor. Before Vincent could do any further damage to us, he was suddenly launched back and sent crashing down the street.

Vance and I turned back to everyone and saw Addison and Riley holding up their alien gear. "Did you two do that?" Vance asked, as everyone ran up to us. "Uh-huh, alien tech rocks." Riley answered as he helped me stand up. "Oh shit, you two are hurt pretty bad." Eliza said, "We need to get y'all to a hospital."

"We can do that when Vincent is subdued." I said, "However, we are going to need my parents." Everybody nodded and we all started the walk back to Vampireville. A few minutes later we were all back at Vampireville. "Come on, Vincent won't be knocked out for much longer." Addison told us. We got into my house and I told them to wait out there while I got my parents.

"Hello?"

"Vanna? It's three in the morning, why are you up?" Dad asked.

I took a deep breath and explained everything to them.

"Wh-what? He did all that?!" Mom questioned and I nodded.

"We've gotta stop hi-" Dad paused to cough and this time...I started to cough as well.

"Oh no, sweetie, it's getting to you too!" Mom said, placing her hands on my cheeks.

"We have to get to Vincent before he does something even more outrageous." Dad spoke, trying to get up off the bed. When he stood up he almost fell down, but regained his balance a little. "I'm gonna need some help."

I can Vance in to help my dad and I helped Mom get off the bed. The four of us walked out of their room and I introduced my parents to my new friends. "It's nice to meet you." My parents said in unison.

~~~

We all eventually got back the Zombietown and saw Vincent still passed the fuck out. "Come on, we're almost there." I said to my parents. We got the two of them to the moonstone and they placed their necklaces on it. Their moonstones glowed a vibrant purple and they were fully recharged. My parents then stood up on their own and I immediately pulled them into a hug. "I'm so glad you're okay." I said, "I love you both, so much."

"We love you too, sweetie."

"Wait, you need to place your moonstone too, we heard you coughing earlier." Wynter spoke up. "Are you sure?" I questioned. The wolves nodded and I smiled, before recharging my moonstone as well. I felt the pain that Vincent caused diminish as I did so.

As I stood up parents turned to Willa, Wyatt, and Wynter. "Thank you all so much." Dad said. "You don't know how much this means to us."

The wolves nodded and my mom brought them in for a hug. "You guys are awesome!" She said.

They all pulled away, laughing. "Of course." Wyatt said. "Consider the rivalry between werewolves and vampires over." Willa stated, making us all smile.

"Ugh...What happened." Vincent said, regaining his consciousness. Mom and Dad then turned to face him on the floor. "You, young man, are in so much trouble!" Mom yelled. "Vincent Michael Fangston, you are grounded for the rest of the year!" Dad added. "Wha-Guys, I'm 21!" Vincent complained. "You still live under our roof, Vincent." Dad said. Mom then grabbed him by the ear. "Come on, here going home, but not before you apologize!" Mom told him. Vincent looked at everyone with a very disinterested look on his face.

"Sorry."

"Mean it."

"I'm very sorry for my actions, I promise to never do anything like that ever again."

Vincent obviously still didn't care, so Mom dragged him away by his ear with Vincent saying "Ow. Ow. Ow." Along the way. Dad turned to my friends and thank them for everything before following Mom and Vincent back home.

"You guys are awesome, thanks for everything. Even though the zombies didn't do much."

"Hey!"

"Kidding." I giggled and brought everyone in for a group hug. Vance ended up being quite close to me so I whispered in his ear. "Tell her, now's your chance."

We all pulled apart and I saw Vance go up to Wynter. 'Oh my god, it's happening! Stay calm. STAY FUCKING CALM.'

As Vance talked with Wynter, Riley and Addison came up to me. "Vanna, we were wondering if you'd like to meet Maddie with us tomorrow." Addison asked. "Sure." I replied. With that the three of us turned to Wynter and Vance and saw them kissing. "Fucking finally." Riley said, making us all laugh.

'I love Seabrook.'

Chapter 32: Hey...

So...it's been a while.

Would y'all like for this story to continue? Although, I believe it would need some major rewriting cause its soooo bad T-T

I lost motivation for this because I lost my Wattpad account and couldn't log back into it. I've been writing on my other AO3 account (FakeKing1512) about my new hyperfixation, but I could very well try to revamp this if you all seem to want it.

See ya!

Notes:

Hello people who may or may not be reading this book. What did you think of chapter one? I hope y'all liked it! Anyways the reason I made this book is because I just got back into the Z-O-M-B-I-E fandom and as a true fan boy I wanted to see if any fan fictions about OCs were a thing and I didn't see much sooooo, I did it myself :D. Well, this is me signing out. Have a great day/night
