Halloweentown High Page #6

- If there's any of her left to find.

- Dylan!

I wouldn't worry too much about Cassie.

Witches, even young.

are pretty tough, you know...

There's only one thing

strong enough to hold them.

- A witch's glass.

- Do any of you have one?

Ethan has one. He uses it

to call his dad all the time.

- Oh, go get it.

- Wait, don't you have one?

I think I see something

going by the window.

Hm. Eyes in the back of her head.

Explains why I never

got away with anything growing up.

I just saw it, too.

Hm. Which explains why we never

got away with anything.

Keep talking. Just...

- Hey!

- Krepto fragilius!

Mom!

We've got a problem. Uh...

Mom!

- Oh, Cody.

- Is he a knight?

No, he's just a big idiot

that keeps trying to be my prince.

Oh, he brought me flowers.

Oh. Mom, how could you?!

I'm so sorry. But you know.

he should wake up soon... ish. Sorta.

- Hey!

- What are you doing in there?

What do you mean what am I doing here?

Somebody put me in here.

- Now get me out!

- I can't.

- Ethan, what is going on?

- I don't know.

Come in.

Everything all right?

Yeah.

Oh. I know you and Cassie

were good friends.

but try not to worry too much.

I'm sure she's gonna be

just fine... wherever she is.

Hm, what?

Oh, uh...

Oh, right, wherever.

Yes...

- Good night.

- Good night. Sweet dreams.

Come in.

Hi. Grandma.

Is everyone in bed?

Oh, almost everyone.

Are you gonna go out?

Yes, Cody should be waking up soon.

so I thought I should take him home.

Want to borrow my car?

Oh, no, that's OK.

I have my own method of transportation.

Hm...

- See ya later.

- See you later.

More like me every day. Ha!

What happened?

Um, let's just say there was a little mix-up.

but thanks for the flowers.

Oh, sure.

I have the worst taste in my mouth.

Oh, that's magic.

It tastes awful.

What are you talking about?

Cody... I'm a witch.

Marnie...

I was kinda hoping you'd do that.

I'm-I'm dreaming.

I'm-I'm hallucinating.

- Actually, it's called hovering.

- What? So you really are a...

Which explains all the stuff at school

and why you're always disappearing.

Ah, yes. I just learned how to do that.

actually. Level two.

What? How? Why?

Where are you from?

Hey, we have a lot of time for questions.

Right now, let's just have some fun, OK?

Hold on!

Whoo!

Whoo!

Ooh.

Whoa.

Ha-ha!

Yeah, still rides like a charm.

Ha-ha!

- Yeah, that's something.

- Whoo!

Where's my dad?!

He isn't here yet.

Must you always travel

with that stupid door?

What if somebody sees you?

What if someone had seen you drawing

an iron dagger at your little school?

Some things are just worth taking the risk.

What is this?

Did you do this to Cassie?

What, no hug for your old man?

Hm. Yes, unfortunate, but necessary.

You have a girl trapped in there?

Hey, knock it off.

Mr. Flanagan?

Yes. For centuries.

my family has been keeping a vigil.

a vigil to ensure that our world

remains pure of the magical.

I'm the last remaining descendant

of a noble order.

Please.

You wouldn't have even known

that the Knights of the Iron Dagger existed

if I hadn't found you and told you.

But I'm still a knight, right?

Yes, of course.

All hail.

Dad, how could you?

She's my friend.

You didn't seem too worried

about your friends

when you stirred up that trouble at the mall

or plunged the dagger into the pumpkin.

You're lucky that I was there to give you

some cover. It's pathetic. How long...?

But you are such a good boy.

Did everything you were told. I...

You said no one was gonna get hurt.

You said they would just give up.

- You said that...

- Yes. I know what I said.

But when the good people

of Halloweentown realize

that humans have not changed.

that they are still these lying.

backward, wretched creatures...

No offense.

Then they'll understand that this portal

must be closed permanently.

A separate world for freaks?

I'm all for it.

Nothing's going to stop us now.

The Cromwells will stop you.

No, not without their magic.

they won't.

And at midnight on Halloween...

the Cromwell magic is going to be mine.

Well, if you're right.

whoever is behind all this

won't stop until they prove

to the council that we failed.

And we won't fail.

There's nothing that Cromwell women

can't do if they set their minds to it.

We all know what we have to do?

I think so.

Then we better get started.

Wish me luck finding Cassie.

It's very important that

we keep our eyes open

and that we're aware of our surroundings.

Aggie. I am so sorry about...

Oh, shoot.

Being reassigned again.

Honestly, these kids are so whiny.

So he lost an ear.

It's not like it won't grow back.

No, you're doing just fine.

though I hadn't heard about the ear.

No. I'm just sorry that we're not gonna

have your haunted house in our carnival.

Why wouldn't we do our haunted house?

We're actually going there right now.

Oh. Well. I just thought with so many

of your students going back to Canada...

I can't wait.

Being aware of my surroundings as I am.

that seemed highly suspicious.

- What. Phil?

- Mm-hm.

Oh, no.

I can't believe you'd suspect him.

Honestly, Marnie.

He's not... He's...

I hate paybacks.

Fine.

You just don't want me to be happy.

Ugh. Somebody really lost an ear?

Who is it?

Mr. Flanagan,

you're needed in the front office.

I'll be right in.

OK. I'm thinking that the haunted house

just isn't such a good idea.

Everybody else just set up booths

and they're already done.

Uh, need I

remind you I'm a witch?

- Oh.

- Hm.

Look, hardhats, everyone.

- Come on, let's get out of here!

- Togos beerai contus...

Marnie. Hey.

Hi! Hey.

How's it going?

You tell me. I think I had

this really crazy dream last night

where you and I were flying...

Marnie!

What? Oh. Sorry.

Uh. fragiliotose!

Oh, my gosh!

- You told me that you were a...

- Come on, let's go.

- Thanks, Marnie.

- Yeah, no problem.

Ah!

Check that out, man.

Now, what did I say I was?

Uh, you said you were a...

How...?

You really are a witch.

It wasn't a dream.

No, it wasn't a dream.

Is there a problem?

Um... I don't think so.

Still in the processing stage.

- You're the good kind, right?

- Yes, definitely the good kind.

Marnie?!

- What?

- The walls keep dissolving.

Hm.

You know. I can conjure floors for days.

but walls - they're tricky.

Um. I should go.

We'll talk later?

- Yeah.

- OK.

- Where did that...?

- I...

Why did you do that?

Hey! Open the door!

Here's that bag of yours.

I feel like such a fool.

He is a knight.

You're not a fool.

A flirt, maybe, but not a fool.

Well, at least we know.

Don't worry about me.

I'll be fine.

OK, guys, listen up.

I've got it all figured out.

I'm gonna go check on Dylan.

...greatest haunted house ever.

I'm telling you.

This is gonna be really cool.

We'll make it super-scary

with buckets and buckets of fake blood.

It's gonna be scary, right?

- Um...

- Come on, it's a haunted house.
