Monster High: Escape from Skull Shores Page #3

Not to be a gloomy

ghost or nothing,

but what are we gonna

do when we find them?

That thing's enormous!

Scent's getting stronger.

Gotta be close.

I don't like this!

Is upsetting. Good creatures

like Tiki helping Farnum.

You right. Farnum play on they fear

of the Beast to manipulate them.

Must be way to get out of here.

I don't know. It's

always been this way.

I grew up the only monster

in a normie town.

They didn't understand me, and

that made people scared and angry.

Yeah, I get that.

When people get angry at me, their

intolerance, the negative energy,

it does something to me and

I turn into the Beast.

Everywhere we went, same old

story. It's ruined my whole life.

Aw...

I'm so sorry, Andy.

Finally, since I didn't

fit in anywhere,

my parents decided to send

me as far away as possible.

But there was a storm, shipwrecked.

And you ended up here,

at the end of the world.

As remote as it gets.

So I figured I wouldn't change

into the Beast anymore.

Until I met the Tikis.

Their fear started the cycle again.

It's like, wherever I go, I

can't get away from the hate.

Oh, you poor creature.

We're getting near the Beast's lair,

Kipling. I'm going to be rich!

They will travel far and wide to be

disgusted by this hideous beast.

That bloke Farnum's got

a trackin' device.

If we keep followin' him, he'll

lead us right to Frankie.

Yeah, but what are we gonna

do when we find them?

I dunno, but we'll

think of somethin'.

I'm not sure if this is

the best plan, Lagoona,

confronting them

straight on like that.

Maybe we should wait and

think about this some...

Lagoona!

Surprise.

Don't just stand there. Nab her.

I'm sorry.

Lagoona!

- Gil! Help!

I, uh...

Gil!

Don't leave me!

This island's actually

pretty cool, huh?

Yeah, when you're not being

chased by a crazy man.

Do you ever think about leaving?

Where would I go?

You could go back with us!

To Monster High!

I don't know.

Where we come from,

you're free to be yourself.

You can let your freak flag

fly and no one will care.

They've never seen someone like me,

someone with my, you know, problem.

It's not a problem, though. We...

Frankie, as scary as

this place can be,

your world is even scarier.

That's some boyfriend you have.

I love the way he so bravely ran for the

hills the second you were in trouble.

He's right.

I knew Gil wasn't the

most courageous monster,

but I never thought he would

just hang me out to dry.

You never know.

Sometimes things aren't

always what they seem.

Like you, mate?

On the surface, you're just

one of Farnum's goons.

But I bet, underneath that mask

is the face of a kind, sweet...

- No, no, don't!

Mr. Farnum says I'm too

horrible to look at.

He says no one will like me if

they knew what was under here.

And you listen to him?

We're all monsters,

mate, nobody's perfect.

It's what's inside that counts.

Maybe if you kept better company

you would realize that.

Kipling! Let's keep moving.

We're getting close.

Farnum's gotta be looking for us.

We should get you back to your

friends so you can get out of here.

Hey, more of my statues!

Why are there so

many on this island?

Ah, uh...

It's kind of embarrassing.

Hello, I'm like, the

queen of embarrassment.

One time, my stitches came out in

the middle of fearleading try-outs

and my leg hit the captain

right in the head!

A long time ago.

That girl came here with scientists

that wanted to capture me.

But she was different.

Around her, I felt so comfortable

and happy and safe that

I never turned into the Beast.

Did you build the statues?

Yeah. It sounds silly,

but just being around someone

that looks like her keeps me me.

And when I saw you... I'm sorry.

Hey, now, don't be sorry.

You couldn't control it.

I'm sure everything will

work out just fine.

Hey, we hungry. Need food.

What kind of two bit

operation you Tikis running?

Must go! Must get to

Frankie and others!

You right. Should not

leave them like this.

Am very disappointed in you.

Is not Beast you should fear.

Is Farnum! When was last

time he do anything for you?

Hmm. Thought so.

You want forgive?

Help me stop Farnum.

Frankie's perfume. They're close.

They're close, boys.

He's too dangerous for us

to take him head on, sir.

We're not going to. They are.

Listen up. You all will

attack him from the front,

create a little diversion,

and we'll swing around from

the back all sneaky-like

and cut off his exit! Go!

Oh, no. He's found us.

Wait!

- Frankie?

You found me!

- You know them?

We all came to this

island together.

Well! Who's the jungle hottie?

Hurry! Before he gets away!

Farnum! You gotta get out of here.

- No, I won't leave you.

But he doesn't want us,

it's you he's after. Go!

Ah-ha! There you are!

Lagoona!

- Frankie!

Tell me where the Beast is!

- Never!

Tell me or I'll be forced to use...

- Stop!

Jig is up, Farnum!

Tiki done being your wood

puppets. Let my friends go.

You really think a bunch of freaks

can stop the great Farnum?

Metal bolts?

Whoa!

Help!

There's my prize!

Not so fast!

You will submit to me, or I pull all

the electricity right out of her.

Ow!

Your choice.

Now that I've squashed your little

rebellion, you can chain him up.

And I'll be out of your

woodchips for good.

He has won.

I'm so sorry!

Well, I'll be a monkey's uncle.

That's why I could never find you.

To the boat!

It was a distinct pleasure using

all of you for my personal gain,

but I must bid you a fond...

- Lagoona!

Gil! You came back!

That's right, Lagoona.

Farnum, let my friends go!

Ha! You and what army?

A saltwater army.

Put me down! I'm Bartleby Farnum!

Mr. Farnum!

- Wait, Kipling! Don't...

Our boat! It's fixed!

The kraken felt really

bad about what happened,

so he fixed it in record time.

Helps when you have eight arms.

Come on, let's get back

to Monster High.

How'd you do it, mate?

I thought about everything you said.

It was time I faced my fears.

So I finned up, and swam

to the Great Barrier Reef

and talked to your parents.

- You did?

Once I told them what happened

on the island, they were furious.

Your folks, they're actually

very nice monsters.

I told you.

I'm so proud of you,

love. You're my hero.

This whole thing made me realize that the

thing I was most afraid of was losing you.

You were right. The ocean

is quite beautiful.

I'm really sorry the Beast

got away, Mr. Farnum, sir.

On the contrary, dear Kipling,

Frankie is still has

the tracking device.

She and her friends are

gonna lead us right to him!

That transforming mutant

is gonna make me rich!

Good Golly Miss Creepy Crawly!

I had so much fun at the

Squalor's Holler festival!

We went so big! I was all like,

"Whoa!" and Clawd was like, "Boom!"

I got sick the first day, and

spent the whole trip coffin.

Now Andy, don't be so nervous.

- I can't help it.

Every new place I've ever

gone, it's been a mess.

When they find out I'm different,
