"Dragons??" Zeg questioned.

"Wait, DRAGONS?!" Stripes's jaw dropped. "As in... the Guardian Dragons?! The ones in charge of looking after every treasure in all the world?!"

"...yeah," Blaze nodded. "Well, except AJ. He's human,"

"Well, it WOULD make sense," Starla pointed out. "With the whole fire pattern thing,"

"Yeah..." Blaze sighed. "Sorry for not telling you guys sooner,"

"It's alright, B," Darington smiled.

"Yeah, it's understandable," Watts agreed.

"Yeah!" Stripes grinned. "I mean, if I had known that there were monsters here in Axle City—" He suddenly caught his words, however, and gulped. "Oh shoot,"

"Stripes, what do you mean, 'more monsters'?" Gabby raised an eyebrow at the tiger truck. "Do you KNOW any other monster here in Axle City?"

The topic seemed to make the other trucks tense. Blaze noticed this and frowned, looking around at them.

"Guys...? Is there something you need to tell me?"

"Uh..." each of them started looking uncomfortable.

Gabby got off of Watts and turned to them with crossed arms. AJ went beside her and glanced at them with the same expression as Phoenix and Flame looked concerned and Sparkle looked confused.

"Well, uh..." Starla started before shaking her head. "I... I've got nothing to say! But Stripes, if you have somethin' to say, you go first,"

"Oh, NO, I... I've got nothing either!" Stripes defended with a gulp. "And if I did, I... I'd let ladies first! Watts, you go!"

"I have nothing! Honest!" Watts raised her tires. "Uh, Zeg, you go!"

"Zeg have nothing! Zeg not say anything!" Zeg gulped. "Not me! Darington go!"

"Wh-What??" Darington swallowed. "I... I..." He glanced at everyone in the room, his eyes resting at Blaze's confused and concerned gaze before sighing. "Okay, okay... I... I've got something to tell..."

"What is it, Darry?" Blaze asked.

"I... I'm..." Darington sighed again. "I'm... a Ghost,"

"Say whaa...?" Sparkle gasped. "You don't look like a ghost..."

"I change form whenever I go out," Darington explained. "That's why I live at the park instead as of a house. So the house doesn't seem 'haunted', as they say,"

"That... makes sense..." Gabby said after a moment. "Watts, you wanna maybe share, too?"

"I... alright," Watts sighed and took a deep breath. "Guys, I... I'm... a vampire,"

"A vampire? That's neato!" Darington chuckled.

"Anyone else wanna share while we're in the moment?" AJ asked.

"Well, since Watts shared... I guess I'll go next," Starla took a deep breath and sighed. "I'm... a werewolf,"

"Well, I didn't see that coming," Blaze sighed, "but it does explain why you're not too keen on night events, especially under a full moon."

"Yep," Starla grinned. "Also also explains what happens to those who flirt with Watts,"

"Wait, what?" Watts stared at her girlfriend. "Starship, what...?"

"Mm?" Starla glanced at her innocently.

"Well, who else wants to go next?" Gabby asked.

"Uh... Zeg go next," Zeg volunteered. "Uh, friends, Zeg is... golem,"
