Opposite Attract (The Freaky Chronicles #1)

Chapter 15: Home Ink and New student

(Star's POV)

The thunder cracked and lightning flashed over monster high as Frankie laughed maniacally. 

"Everything is going total according to plan. Our creating is almost ready." She let out another maniacal laugh before looking at the clock on the wall. "But we must hurry. Jackson, did you find all of our ingrediencies?"

"Yes Mas..I mean Frankie." A human like boy stuttered out while trying to pull the idea. "Ow! My back!" He yelled in pain, before hunching down while holding his back. 

"Let me open this bad boy up." Frank said excitedly.

Finally straightening his back, He said to her, "Don't you think your getting a little carried away here?"

"What makes you say that?" Frankie said calmly before laughing manically again. "Now put on your goggles. It's gonna get messy."

As Frankie added the finishing touches to her creature, Jackson turned away saying, "Oh I can't look."

"Yes, it's all coming together so deliciously." Frankie said, minding the brown substance splashing onto her lab coat.

"I've always wondered how these were made but I don't think I have the stomach for it." Jack whimpered, holding onto his goggles.

 "It's too late to back out now." Frankie pulled out two vials and pouring the liquid onto the creature. "Here, this will keep it from falling apart." Then watching as more of the brown liquid started bubbling from the creature.

"Are they OK?" Star stood over at her station with both her partners Heath and Venus while watching the two monster slowly lowering the heater onto their creation.

"They always take their Home Ink assignment very serious." Venus said not paying attention to her friend as she added an edible vine garnish to her earth drink. "Our drink's done."

In home Ink class, they were all paired up in groups of two but since Star  was now apart of the class, one group had to have an extra member.  Of course the teacher partnered her with the only other elementals in class, her mate and best friend, Heath and Venus. 

The task they were given was to make a family dish for the teacher to evaluate and be given a grade. Together the group chose a popular dish for all elemental. 

"And the pie is done too." Heath said, placing the pie on the table before turning to Star who has a bowl with an electric mixer. "Is the icing ready yet?"

 "Yep." Star answered before holding her hand out for Heath to place the hot pie on her ice cold hands. Once it was cooled, she spread half of the icing on the pie and watched was as it sunk slight into it.

"Is it supposed to do that?" Venus asked, observing from behind the couple.

"Yeah, but just need a few elemental touches." Once she placed the pie down, Heath used his powers to set the icing on fire, giving it a slight flame pattern alone with flames blazing from it. "Now it's my turn" using the electric mixer, she picked up a little bit of icing before using her powers to sprinkle it onto the other half of the pie. Once each drop touched the pie, it formed into a snowflake pattern, each drop giving off it's own cool air.

"A deluxe elemental dish! We did it!" Venus said excitedly while high fiving her team mates.

Suddenly the lights went out then a loud scream was heard. Two second later, Heath's whole body ignited, lighting the whole room. Everyone's eyes turned to the flame as he clenched fearfully onto his mate before realizing what he's doing and immediately letting go, folding his arm in the process. Star giggled at her mate while rubbing rubbing his back soothingly as Heath gave her a sheepish smile.

"We blew a fuse!" Frankie screamed

"And we're running out of time!" Jackson followed

"We need more power!" Frankie then pulled out a pair of jumper cables and attached them on to the screws on her neck.

"No Frankie there has to be another way." Jackson said worriedly

"No. There  is no other way." Frankie said, placing the other end of the jumper cables on her creature causing electricity to shoot from her screws.

No long after high lights came back on, "Finally! My creation is finished!" Frankie cackled before realizing she had caught the attention of the whole class. Laughing nervously, she said, "And that's how you make my secret family recipe, guaranteed to reanimate your taste buds." She signaled Jackson who took off the tarp to reveal and giant gingerbread man. 

The gingerbread man gladly stood up with a frosting smile on his delicious brown face as he, Frankie and Jackson took a bow.

"Who knew Frankie changes so much when it comes to Home Ink." Star said watching her mate presented their dish to the teacher, Ms. Kindergrubber who was nice yet strict.

"Yeah, It's like she totally became a different ghoul." Venus watched as the teacher was about to take a bite of the flame side before saying, "I would highly recommend eating in the middle. You'll get a better taste of the flame and ice together." Following her instructions, Ms. Kindergrubber took a piece from the center before placing it in her mouth. The trio sighed in relief as her face contorted into a blissful look. She opened her mouth to give her opinion when an air of blue and red came from her mouth. "Now quickly drink" Venus placed the drink in her hand. The teacher took a sip and opened her mouth. The green air from her mouth quickly turned into a flower that floating into the pot with fresh soil Venus had waiting. Quickly throwing her pollen on it, the pot began to vibrate violently.

"I love this part." Star said excitedly unaware of the other student's frighten look as they including the teacher stepped way from the elemental trio and the pot.

In not time, the vibrating stopped and from the pot, out grew a stem with a closed flower. When the flower open, it attracted an array of oohs, aahs and woahs from the students with it beautiful blue and red color that seemed to blend together perfectly.

The sound of two hands clapping interupted the silence before whole whole class was applauding the great beauty the trio had man.

"Such beauty, that is the very definition of edible art." The teacher said excitedly. "You three get As!"

Loud cheers and clapping fill the classroom but was soon holted by the sound of the bell.

"Before you go, I have someone I'd like to introduce you all to." Ms. Kindergrubber said, stopping the student who were rushing the exit the classroom before signally a person to enter the class. "This is my granddaughter, Hexana Spellman. She'll be start her first day here and she'll be studying under me. Since I still have quite a bit of work to finish, I'll be counting on one of you to show her around." Her eyes ran over over everyone in the class purposefully ignoring Frankie who eagerly had her hand raised before landing on a student who was desperate trying to be invisible. "Jackson Jekyll! You will be my grand daughter's guide for the rest of the week." Ms. Kindergrubber felt satisfied upon seeing the fearful look on his face. "She will be in your care."
