The Ball of Balls

Chapter 28

''Scary beast! Go away!'' Yolanda shouted and she fled underneath a table. Samantha and Charlotte were drinking a cup of tea underneath the table and offered Yolanda a cup too. Samantha just finished stitching where Stuart's left arm should be and calmly sipped her tea.

''Are you mad?'' Yolanda shouted back.

Charlotte shrugged and said: ''Yes.''

Fleur threw all kinds of things at Yannick's head, but nothing seemed to help.

Dean took a good look at Yannick and said: ''We could change your appearance.''

Dean used one of his favorite spells and made the biggest dress ever designed for Yannick. It was a rainbow ball gown. Dean conjured up an enormous mirror for Yannick. Yannick took a moment to look at himself in the dress. A tear fell down his face, that beautiful was the dress. The tear made part of his face go weak. And right when Yannick wasn't paying attention, Wade chopped the dress with his sword. ''No! Not this nice present!'' Yannick threw Wade away while crying.

Yannick kept getting weaker until he noticed that it was because of the tears and he tried to stop crying. Dean walked slowly to Yannick and said: ''Do you like it?''

Dean kissed the weakened forehead of Yannick and he slowly turned into a normal boy. Yannick hugged Dean and the guests slowly came out of their hiding spots underneath the tables.

''I... am... human?'' Yannick said, confused. He looked at his hands, which were not blue or brown anymore. Yannick had ten fingers again, the one Samantha chopped off was back in place like nothing had happened to it.

Wade didn't see Yannick as a threat anymore and walked angrily toward him. ''This whole ball is ruined because of you!''

''I never wanted to hurt anyone... I was cursed by...'' Yannick was interrupted by Yolanda, who pointed at the doorway where Rey entered the castle once again. ''The intruder!''

''Uhm, hello? Why do I have to come in that dramatically?'' Rey said awkwardly, before asking: ''Which way is the basement?''

''That way,'' Yolanda said kindly, but she realized shortly after that it's kinda weird to help an intruder and she put a hand before her mouth.

''Thank you... Your highness,'' Rey made a quick and blunt curtsy, turned to the direction Yolanda had pointed her and left the dining hall.

''What are you standing there? Do something!'' Wade commanded Stuart, who quickly stood up.

''The monster?'' Stuart said, confused. ''Or do you mean the intruder? A-a-actually they are both just intruders, s-s-since the m-m-monster is now a human.''

''I don't get why I haven't hit you yet. The only thing you do is film yourself, wank and watch how you wank yourself,'' Wade said disapprovingly.

''Wade knows, Stuart, you are pretty gross,'' Barbara said.

''There is she again with her annoying rhymes. You know, I won't bother interfering in this situation. You can figure this out yourselves,'' Dean said, wanting to leave this messy situation.

Barbara's eyes turned white again and she said: ''In an hour everyone will not be happy, because this demon will be set free!''

''Maybe I should keep an eye on her,'' Dean said.

''I mean the girl, the intruder,'' Wade said to Stuart.

''Oh... oh.. now? You mean that I should... yes... I understand, I will g-get my stuff... And things...'' Stuart rambled.

''Which things do you need? Just go after her!'' Wade shouted.

Stuart quickly grabbed a butterfly net from a closet, ran after the intruder and mumbled: ''D-doesn't he see that I have one arm?''
