The mission begins as Octavia seek help from students from Monster High.

Octavia and her Haunting Helpers

Octavia made her way to a warehouse district, where she heard that somebody is using one of the buildings for music practice.

"Let's see." Octavia said to herself. "The ones I'm looking for are around here somewhere."

Suddenly, she hear music played at the warehouse she's looking at. The music sounds like it's played by a pipe organ and a fiddle. "In there!"

The cello player rushes to the warehouse. Inside, two young people practice their music. One is a young girl with red hair and lavender skin. She wore a white opened shirt covering a reddish purple shirt underneath. She has on blue jeans with the pant cuffs rollled up and sneakers with music note shaped heels. This young girl has on a heart shaped obect over her left eye. She plays her pipe organ well.

The other person, playing a fiddle, looks like a ghostly teen wearing a leather jacket and blue jeans. They then decided to stop playing.

"You've improved since we last met." The girl said with a southern accent.

"I sure did." The greaser ghost replied. "And, we make a great team."

The southern girl is Operetta, the darling dixie ghoul of Monster High. And, the greaser is her worthy rival, Johnny Spirit. They were watched by other students of Monster High, who were impressed.

"And to think," Clawdeen Wolf, the werewolf fashion ghoul, said, "you two used to despise each other."

"Until we realized that we both like music." Operetta replied.

The vegetarian vampire, Draculara, smiled at their performance. "It's a good thing we came to Canterlot City for some peace and quiet."

"I sure hope that Sunset Shimmer and her friends don't mind us visiting their hometown." Said the fur wearing ice maiden, Abbey Bominable.

Suddenly, the doors opened, and in steps Jane Boolittle, a ghoul who lived most of her life in the jungle. She got the other ghouls' attention. "Ghouls, I found an intruder! Not to fear, however. This visitor is secured!"

She threw in Octavia, who had her hands tied behind her back and her ankles tied together. Octavia got nervous as popular student, Cleo DeNile, walks over to her.

"What are you doing here, Octavia Melody?" Cleo asked. "Not that we don't mind a visit from the Rainbooms or any of their friends."

Cleo is then joined by Frankie Stein, who looks at the bound cello player. "It's just we didn't expect anybody to come around here."

"I am in need of help." Octavia explained, as she looks at Operetta and Johnny. "Particularly, from you two."

Johnny Spirit floated to Octavia. "It must be important if you need our help." He then turns to Draculaura. "Untie this girl so we can hear her out."

Minutes later, Octavia explained the situation to the Monster High students.

“I heard about what happened to your friends.” Draculaura said with concern.

“We all have.” Cleo added. “It’s not right for Miss Cinch to ruin their performance.”

“Indeed.” Octavia said sadly. “Twilight, Sunset, and the others were very upset about this. And, I’m sure they still are.”

“So, where do we fit in?” Johnny Spirit asked.

“Well, Johnny. The Rainbooms are staying at Hoity Toity’s place this week. And, they’ll be performing at his place on Saturday night. I wondered if you and Operetta would join them on stage.”

This got everybody’s attention.

“Hey! Why not!” Operetta said with excitement. “We’d be honored to be with the Rainbooms.”

“Operetta is right.” Johnny added. “I always wanted to be with those seven girls. Especially Sunset Shimmer.”

“You like the way she looks in a leather jacket. Don’t you?”

Johnny blushes as Octavia leaves.

“Thanks, everybody.” Octavia said as she leaves. “I’ll keep in contact with you if something comes up.”

“Good idea.” Clawdeen added. “Say hi to your roommate for us.”

After waving goodbye, Octavia heads for home as she sends a text to Vinyl. I’ve done my part. Let’s hope Vinyl is just as successful.
