Hotel Transylvania 5

Chapter 1

November 11, 2024
Everyone is gathered in the lobby for the Drac Pack's going away party. Drac was requested back to the vampire council and Ericka was invited to come with her. Frank is going to Hollywood to do movies. Murray the Mummy was headed to Egypt to see ex-wife and try to win her heart back. Wayne and Wanda won 4 tickets for a Hawaiian vacation. Winnie however stayed behind. She had promised Dennis she would help him out with his duties around the hotel while Drac and Ericka were away. Usually Johnny would do these things since they always had someone from the Drac Pack watch Izzabeth, Dennis's 5 year old little sister. With them being gone for a few months they had nobody to watch Izza and Dennis too young to babysit being only 11 years old, so he stepped up to help his dad with his usual tasks while he watched Dennis's sister.

"You know Mavis, Crystal and I could watch Dennis if you want us too," Griffin said. "Yeah, we love little Izzabeth," Crystal said. That's so sweet of you but last time I left you in charge of her, she kept crying because she thought she being taken by ghosts," Mavis said, "I could hear her from the lobby." "But she's older now," Crystal said, "I'm sure she won't be scared of us anymore." "I appreciate it, but the answer is still no," Mavis said, "I hope you understand. I just don't want to take any chances with my little princess." "We understand," Griffin said, "it is your choice after all due to the fact that she's your daughter." "Thank you so much," Mavis said.

Meanwhile, Dennis and Izza were saying their goodbyes to Drac and Ericka. "We're really going to miss you guys," Dennis said. "We're going to miss you too sweetheart," Ericka said as she kneels down and hugs them. "Do you guys really have to leave Papa Drac?" Izza asked. "I really wish we didn't but I have an important duty as the grand vamp of the vampire council," Drac said, "I'll video chat with you every night before you go to bed." The 2 kids smiled and hugged their grandparents goodbye. "We love you," they said in unison. "We love you too," Drac and Ericka said back.

"Are you sure you don't want to come with us honey?" Wayne asked. "I did promise Dennis that I would help him Dad," Winnie reminded him. "Like you always taught us, promises are sacred and you should never break them. "Then who should we give our 4th ticket to?" Wanda asked. "You called?" Vivien asked from behind them. "Aaaaahhh!" They all screamed. "Vivien how long have you been standing there?" Willie asked. "I've been here the whole time," she said. "Did you forget that you guys were watching me while my dad is away?" "Oh yeah I totally forgot," Wanda said. "Would you like to come with us to Hawaii?" "Absolutely!" Vivien exclaimed. "It's settled then," Wayne said. "Please make sure Winnie stays out of trouble." "Don't worry," Johnny said, "your daughter is safe with us." "We will protect her as if she were one of ours," Joey said. "Thank you," Wanda said. "We are counting on you."

"Everyone, they said yes!" Mavis said excitedly. "Who said yes Mommy?" Izza asked. "My friends from way back when I was a teenager," she replied. "No way, Aunt Wendy's coming?" Dennis asked with a big smile on his face. "That's right Dennis," Mavis said, "also your uncles Hank and Pedro!" "Sweet!" Dennis said. "What time will they be here?"
2 hours later
"Wow," Dennis said, "they got here really fast." "Of course they did honey," Mavis said, "they're excited to see you again, not to mention they haven't even met your little sister." Suddenly, Wendy bursts through the door. "Mavis, longtime no see," she said. "It's so great to see you Wendy," Mavis said. Wendy smiled than slid over to Dennis and hugged him. "How's my favorite nephew?" She asked. "I'm doing great, thanks Aunt Wendy," Dennis said returning the hug. "Hi Aunt Wendy, my name's Izza," Izza said. "So you're the Izzabeth that Mavis is always telling me about," Wendy said as she let go of Dennis and hugged her. Hearing that made Izza blush. "You look just like your mother when she was a kid. The only difference is that you have your father's brown eyes and no fangs." "Thank you for noticing," Izza said smiling. "I wish you could have been at my birthday yesterday. My brother taught me how to transform." "She can't turn into a bat yet but we are working on that one," Dennis said. Hank and Pedro walked in a few seconds later. "Hey guys, did we make it on time?" Hank asked. "Yep, perfect timing too. We were just about to have lunch," Dennis said. "Awesome," Pedro said.

Everyone was about to go to the dining room when a red smoke cloud appeared in the middle of the lobby. Lydia emerged from the smoke, and for some reason, Bela was with her. "Bela," Dennis said angrily as he summoned his armor and swords. "I defeated you once, I'll defeat you again!" "Relax Denisovich," Lydia said. "He's not here to hurt you. He's on our side." "What are you talking about Aunt Lydia? That guy tried to kill me!" Dennis said. "That was 6 years ago," Bela said. "I've changed since then. I don't kill humans anymore." "Give me one good reason why I should believe you," Dennis demanded holding his swords up to Bela's neck. "Because he works for me now," Lydia said.

"I thought Diane was your assistant," Winnie said. "I set her free," Lydia said. "I turned her back into a human and set her free." Everyone's eyes widened. "After that, I needed a new assistant. I went to the special bat cronies prison and bailed Bela out and as a token of his gratitude, he agreed to be my new assistant." Dennis then put his swords away."So you're not going to try to us?" Dennis asked. Bela shook his head. "Good," Dennis said as he and his family enters the dining room. Lydia and Bela had already eaten before they got here so they stayed behind. Once they were all in the dining room, Bela looked at Lydia and they smiled evilly at each other. "That's right. I'm not going to kill you Dennis," Bela said. "We have something much worse planned for you," Lydia said.
