The Hollywood Phantom |Julie and the Phantoms| (COMPLETED)

Chapter 3

After a few hours, Caleb finally left the club. Now, it's time for the new owner to take over. I hear a knock on the door and Willie enters.

"Hey Caleb, did- Emma?"

"Hello Willie." I chuckle.

"Why are you dressed like that?" He asks.

"Oh, no reason. Just thought I could use a little makeover."

"But you look completely dif- The plan worked...."

"Indeed it did, Willie. You are now looking at the proud owner of the Hollywood Ghost Club!" I open my arms wide and look back at him. His face turns into a frown. "What? Too much?"

"I-No, it's just surprising that this worked out."

"How is it surprising?" I ask.

"Because he never mentioned you would change."

"Me? Change?" I laugh. "Something must be going on in that brain of yours. I'm still the same person!"

"This isn't the Emma Patterson I know." Willie shouts.

"Patterson? Oh, I get it now, you must be thinking of a former member. I guess I haven't introduced myself completely! Hi, I'm Emma Covington. It's a pleasure to be your leader!" I chuckle as I extend my hand.

"What did he do to you?" Willie asks as he tears up.

"Whatever do you mean?" I ask with a smile.

"This plan. Caleb said he was going to offer you his position. He never said he'd turn you into an evil ghost!"

"Evil? I'm sorry, but I don't recall ever being turned into something different from another ghost."

"Emma, you can't let Caleb get to you. You need to find him and reject his offer before it's too late!"

"Never! I accepted his offer for a reason! I want to be free and be able to get the spotlight I deserve!"

"And you can! But you need to leave right now! Go find your real home!"

"You don't get it, do you? This is my home! Everything I've ever wanted is right here!"

"Home is not all about wants, it's about what you need. You need to be with your family and friends again!"

"I have no family." Before he could say anything else, I teleport away.

I will never go back to where I was. I will never go back to who I am. This club needs me. This club deserves me. This club was the only way I felt appreciated.

I arrive back in my room and walk over to my dresser. I look at myself in the mirror and gasp. Oh my gosh. I really have changed. What happened to me?

This is definitely not my look!

I grab my makeup bag and take out the eyeshadow. Before I start applying the makeup, I pause. Is this the real me? Or was Willie right? Was that Patterson girl who I truly am? I put down the brush and start wiping my face off with a wipe. I don't think I can do this. I start crying as I remember who I might have been before. And all of the things that came behind it...

I'm so tired of pretending
Where's my happy ending?
I ask myself as I grab my journal and start writing.
I followed all the rules
I drew inside the lines
I never asked for anything that wasn't mine
I waited patiently for my time
But when it finally came
He called her name

And now I feel this overwhelming pain
I mean it's in my veins
I mean it's in my brain
My thoughts are running in a circle like a toy train
I'm kinda like a perfect picture with a broken frame
I know exactly who to blame

I look at a picture of the new band 'Julie and the Phantoms'. I throw the picture to the ground and watch the frame shatter.

I never thought of myself as mean
I always thought that I'd be the queen
And there's no in between
'Cause if I can't have that
Then I would be the leader of the dark
And the bad
Now there's a devil on my shoulder
Where the angels used to be
And he's calling me the queen

Being nice was my pastime
But I've been hurt for the last time
And I won't ever let another person take advantage of me
The anger burns my skin, third-degree
Now my blood's boiling hotter than a fiery sea
There's nobody getting close to me
They're gonna bow to the Evil Queen
Your nightmare's my dream
Just wait until they fall to my wicked schemes

I teleport into a locked room by Caleb's where rumors are spread of magic being in here. I look around to find the chest with the magic inside of it. This is where Caleb's power comes from. And now it's going to be mine!

I never thought of myself as mean
I always thought that I'd be the queen
And there's no in between
'Cause if I can't have that
Then I would be the leader of the dark
And the bad
Now there's a devil on my shoulder
Where the angels used to be
And he's calling me the queen of mean (calling me, calling me)
The queen of mean (calling me, calling me)
The queen of mean (calling me, calling me)

I stop as I finally see the chest. There it is! The one thing that can change my whole life!

Something's pulling me
It's so magnetic
My body is moving
Unsure where I'm headed
All of my senses have left me defenseless
This darkness around me
Is promising vengeance
The price that I'm willing to pay is expensive
There's nothing to lose
When you're lonely and friendless
So my only interest is showing this princess
That I am the queen
And my reign will be endless (endless)

I open the chest and all of the power enters my body. I open my eyes and feel them glow. My outfit changes into a different dress. I chuckle as I throw the chest to the ground.

I want what I deserve
I want to rule the world
Sit back and watch them learn
It's finally my turn

If they want a villain for a queen
I'm gonna be one like they've never seen
I'll show them what it means
Now that I am that
I will be the ruler of the dark and the bad
'Cause the devil's on my shoulder
Where the angels used to be
And he's calling me the queen of mean (calling me, calling me)
The queen of mean (calling me, calling me)

I want what I deserve!

Time for this ghostly world to deal with a new leader.

And let me tell you, she's better than the old one!

Hey everyone! Quick thing, I'm gonna show a picture of her look soon! I just need to find the right one. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this chapter!
