Chapter 18
The librarian rushed toward Sulley in a rage. Her huge tentacles were just about to wrap around his body when a loud pop-pop-pop noise sounded behind her. She whipped around, searching for the creature who dared destroy the silence of her library. It was Don.He was crawling along the floor so that his tentacles would make a loud, sticky, suction-cup pop against the floor. He moved as quickly and as loudly as he could, popping up a storm! The librarian’s tentacles suddenly shot in Don’s direction. Don cringed and braced for the impact. But just before her slimy arms reached him, books began flying off the shelves in another part of the library.
“Over here!” Terri and Terry called out as they danced and loudly tossed books onto the floor. The librarian turned toward the two with fury in her eyes.
But then Art jumped on a table and began stomping his hairy purple feet. The librarian’s attention immediately went to him.
The crowd watched in surprise. “Is that legal?” one of the onlookers asked.
“Oh yeah!” the vice president answered. “The only rule is don’t get caught.”
As the Oozmas and the librarian ran in every direction, Mike realized in horror that the EEKs were stacking themselves into a pyramid to get their flag. But before he could say anything, his teammates grabbed Mike and pulled him along. As the librarian lunged for them, her tail knocked the EEKs’ pyramid to the floor. The Oozma gang leaped out the library door with an angry tentacle missing them by inches.
“Woo-hoo! We did it!” Art howled as the Oozmas landed in a heap.
Mike shook his head. “No, we didn’t. We forgot the flag!” he said, exasperated.
Squishy suddenly popped up behind Mike. “AHH!” Mike screamed, surprised once again. Then Squishy reached behind his back and held up the f lag.
The Oozmas cheered wildly, but Mike was stunned. “How...?” he asked, confused.
Terri leaned toward Mike. With a wave of his arms and a mysterious smile, he said, “Misdirection!”
“Oozma Kappa moves on, and the EEKs have been eliminated!” the Greek Council vice president announced. Dean Hardscrabble watched, expressionless, as the Oozma Kappas celebrated.
“We’re OK! We’re OK! We’re OK!” they chanted.
As the Oozmas headed for home, they were giddy from their first real success.
“I’ve never felt so alive!” Squishy said, his rosy cheeks redder than usual.
“We were awesome!” Terri and Terry agreed, nodding their heads enthusiastically.
But Sulley wasn’t feeling it. “Look,” he told them, “that wasn’t real scaring.”
“Oh, I disagree,” Mike said. “I got to hand it to the guys; they came up with a very interesting solution. You, on the other hand, nearly got us eliminated. You should have stuck to my strategy.”
“What strategy?” Sulley snapped. “That was a bunch of tiptoeing. Talk to me when we start the real scaring.”
Mike was ready to argue the point when a car full of PNK sorority girls pulled up. “Hey, you guys going to the party?” a cute girl, who was leader of the PNKs, called out.
The Oozmas were stunned. “Oh, I think you’ve got the wrong guys,” Squishy said. “We don’t get invited to —”
Mike quickly put a hand over Squishy’s mouth. “Party?” Mike asked the girl.
“Yeah, the mid-games mixer at the RORs’. It’s for the top scare teams. You’re one of us now, right?”
“See you there!” another girl called out as the car pulled away.
The Oozmas looked at each other in shock. “Did you hear that? I can’t believe it!” Don exclaimed. “Uh-uh. Bad idea,” Sulley said flatly.
But Mike wasn’t about to pass it up. “People are finally seeing us as real Scarers. We are going!” he announced.
As they approached the ROR house, the Oozmas began to get cold feet. “Do young people still dance?” Don asked nervously. “’Cause my moves are a little rusty.”
“Yeah, maybe this wasn’t such a good idea,” Terry said.
Squishy was looking a little panicked, too. “What if there’s a lull in the conversation? I—I never know what to, uh, you know ...”
“... say?” Mike finished.
Squishy shook his head in astonishment. “How are you so good at this?”
“You just took on an angry fifty-foot librarian, and you’re afraid of a little party?” Mike put his arm around Squishy and gave him a nudge through the door. “In you go!” he said, and the rest of the Oozmas followed.
第 18 章
图书管理员愤怒地向毛怪冲过来。她正要用她那硕大的触角缠住毛怪，突然，身后传来了“啪啪啪”的响声。她转过身，想看看究竟是谁胆敢破坏图书馆里的安静。原来是老唐。老唐正匍匐在地面上，每走一步，他的触手就像黏糊糊的吸盘脱离地面一样，发出很大的“啪啪”声。他使出全力移动着，速度越来越快，声音越来越响，犹如掀起了一阵“噼啪”声的风暴！图书管理员朝老唐的方向猛地伸出了触角，老唐赶紧缩起身子，准备迎接巨大的冲击力。但就在管理员那黏滑的手臂快要触到老唐之际，一些书从图书馆另一边的书架上飞落下来。
“看这里！”泰瑞和泰锐齐声喊道。他们一边扭来扭去，一边将书本重重地扔到地上。图书管理员转过身来，怒不可遏地盯着他俩。
这时阿拱突然跳到了一张桌子上，跺起他毛茸茸的紫色大脚来。图书管理员的注意力瞬间被他吸引过去。
大伙儿惊讶地看着比赛。一位观众问道：“这不算犯规吗？”
“当然不算！”副会长回答说，“唯一的规则就是别被抓到。”
正当OK会成员们和图书管理员东奔西跑的时候，麦克惊恐地发现熔岩城队正用叠罗汉的方法准备摘取旗子。麦克还来不及说话，队友们就一把拽过他，拖着他向前跑去。图书管理员朝他们猛冲过去，转身时尾巴一甩，将熔岩城队的“金字塔”打散到地面上。虽然OK会队员距离她那愤怒的触角只有几英寸，他们还是逃脱了追捕，顺利地冲出了图书馆大门。
“哇哦！成功啦！”OK会队员们一个接一个地叠落在地上时，阿拱兴奋地大叫起来。
麦克摇摇头，恼火地说：“没有，我们忘记拿旗子啦！”
史乖宝冷不丁地出现在麦克身后。“啊！”麦克又一次被吓得尖叫起来。没想到史乖宝竟从背后拿出了旗子。
OK会欢呼雀跃起来，而麦克却愣住了。“怎么会……？”他不解地问道。
泰瑞靠着麦克，挥了挥手臂，脸上露出一丝神秘的微笑，说道：“这就叫声东击西！”
“OK会队晋级，熔岩城队淘汰！”希腊议会的副会长宣布道。OK会欢庆起来，而郝刻薄院长却只是面无表情地注视着这一切。
“OK必胜！OK必胜！OK必胜！”欢呼声此起彼伏。
回家的路上，OK会队员们依然沉浸在胜利的喜悦中，这毕竟是他们第一次真正的胜利。
“我从没这么痛快过！”史乖宝说着，他粉色的脸颊看起来比平时更加红润了。
“我们太酷了！”泰瑞和泰锐忙不迭地点头称赞。
然而毛怪却闷闷不乐，“行了，”他对大家说，“那根本不是真正的吓人。”
“噢，我可不这么想，”麦克说，“大家都表现得很好，想到了很有意思的点子；而你，却差点害我们被淘汰了。你应该严格执行我的战术。”
“哪有什么战术？”毛怪打断了麦克，“那不过是个踮脚走的游戏，到了动真格的时候再来找我吧。”
麦克正想反驳，一辆载着粉红美少女队的小轿车停了下来。“嘿，你们去参加派对吗？”一个可爱的女生问道，她是粉红美少女队的队长。
大家都愣住了。“哦，我想你可能问错人了，”史乖宝说道，“我们并没有被邀请……”
麦克赶紧捂住史乖宝的嘴，问那女孩：“要开派对吗？”
“是啊，精吓会举办的中场派对，只有顶尖的惊吓队伍才能参加哦。你们现在也是了，对吧？”
“一会儿见！”女孩说着，汽车便扬尘而去。
大伙儿不可思议地看着彼此。老唐兴奋地大叫起来：“你们听到了吗？这简直难以置信！”毛怪却淡淡地说了声：“哼，最好还是别去。”
然而麦克并不打算错过这个机会。他宣布道：“大家终于认可我们的惊吓能力了，我们要去的！”
来到精吓会会所外面时，大家开始感到有些怯场了。“现在的年轻人还跳舞吗？”老唐紧张地问道，“我的舞步有点生疏了。”
“是啊，也许我们不该来的。”泰锐也犹豫了。
史乖宝心里也是七上八下的，“要是说话冷场了该怎么办？我——我一直都不太会，嗯……你知道的……”
“……聊天？”麦克接着他的话说。
史乖宝惊讶地摇摇头，问道：“你怎么在这方面这么擅长？”
“你们刚才把一个五十英尺高的愤怒的图书管理员都耍得团团转，还怕一个小小的派对吗？”麦克勾着史乖宝的肩，一边将他轻轻推进门，一边说道，“你就进去吧！”于是大伙儿都跟了进去。
