Welcome, Humans!

Chapter 4

The third day started as usual in The Hotel Transylvania, although zombies were still getting the sand out of every possible and impossible place. Maureen was just talking to Mavis about Mavis' 118th birthday party and Johnny's singing skills, when Dracula popped up from nowhere with Griffin.

,,Hello, girls.'' He greeted them. The day before Maureen and Davy asked him to refer to them by their first names, since they were here to make friends and learn about them, and formalities didn't help. He asked them even before to call him Dracula, but they were hesitant at first.

,,Hi Dad. We were just talking about my birthday party.'' Answered Mavis

,,Ah, yes. Great, wasn't it? Now, Griffin here would like to give you and Davy a tour around, and whoever can fit the car is welcome to come!'' Dracula announced, pointing to Griffin, who just stood there awkwardly while the three greeted each other.

,,Yeah, I thought it would be a good idea.'' He raised his glasses a little.

,,Uh, sure, let me just find Davy...Mavis, would you come?'' Maureen asked

,,I don't think so. I'm a little skeptical of that car full of people, not that I'm discouraging you or anything...'' Mavis chuckled at the last sentence.

,,Well, okay, then just a minute! Thank you!'' Maureen exclaimed as she bolted to find Davy. She walked the corridor to his room, while a couple of heads muttered (again) about humans for breakfast of something like that, just to scare her. She ignored them, opening the door to Davy's room. He was not there.

She went down to the lobby but couldn't find him there either. She checked the pool and the bar but no success. She saw Frankenstein talking to his wife Eunice in the lobby. When she got nearer, she realized that he was giving her reasons not to de-mummify Murray, who was nowhere to be seen. Maureen was kinda afraid of Eunice, but gulped and came closer. ,,Good day, Frank, Eunice. Have either of you two seen David?''

Eunice shook her head no, but Frank seemed to be remembering something ,,Hey, I think I saw him...Yes, in the hidden corridor, he was helping zombies with...ah yes, plumbing.''

,,Hidden corridors?'' Maureen was confused

,,Yeah, you haven't seen them?''

,,No, but thanks, I'll ask Dracula to show me, he is over there.'' Maureen said as she made her way to the Count.

,,Okay'' Frank waved and kept talking to Eunice.

,,Hey, Dracula, could you please show me to the hidden corridors? Davy is there.'' She asked.

,,Ah, you you've found him! Good, follow me.'' He opened the secret door with a flick of hid hand.

They came in and walked past a few doors 'till they heard voices. They hurried forward and saw Davy and a couple of zombies in one room, working around pipes.

,,Yeah, that's it. This pipe was in the wrong place, that is why water kept flowing out. And the vent is clogged too, we might need to...Oh, Maureen, Dracula! Hey I..Ow!'' Davy's head snapped up and he hit on a pipe. He emerged under it, rubbing his head.

,,I work as a plumber, or rather, still learning, but I could help them. You guys need something?''

,,Yes, you see, we organized a car tour for you and Maureen.'' Explained Dracula.

,,Sounds cool. Well, we got the problem, so give me a minute to change.'' Davy said before walking off to his room upstairs.

,,Continue.'' Dracula told zombies and walked out with Maureen. Davy was somehow already there.
