timetable.
âGood gracious!â she said. âWho on earth has been making you do so much math? Dear me. This will never do!â
Miss Fitt grabbed an eraser and rubbed out all her changes from the night before. Then she crossed out all the normal math lessons and wrote EXTRA BREAK instead.
âI find math so terribly dull,â said Miss Fitt. She took a brown paper bag out of her handbag. âNow, who would like some candy?â
At lunchtime, the first thing Lee, Bella, and Billy did was turn into bats and zoom up to the clock tower. They were relieved to find Boris safe and well.
âWhat happened last night?â said Lee. âWhy didnât you follow us out of the attic?â
âWell,â began Boris. âRemember when Miss Fitt woke up and said âVampiresâ?â
âOh yeah,â said Lee. âThat was really freaky.â
âI know!â said Boris. âI got such a fright, I whacked my head on one of the knobs on the Monster Megacharger. It was behind some wires, and I hadnât noticed it before. When I looked closer, I saw the knob was marked Horrometer .â
âHey!â said Billy. âThatâs the special knob I was looking for!â
âThe Horrometer had ten settings,â Boris went on. âFrom one, Sweet and Nice, to ten, Scary and Nasty. The knob was set to number ten, but I had just enough time to switch it to one before the lightning struck the conductor.â
âFantastic!â said Lee. âSo Miss Fitt got a super-duper double dose of NICENESS!â
âThatâs right,â said Billy. âOld Gore must have changed her setting.â
âHang on,â wondered Lee. âThat still doesnât explain why you didnât leave the attic when we did.â
âI got a bit tangled in the wires,â said Boris. âBy the time I freed myself, old Gore was heading my way, so I hid behind the machine until he went to bed. Then I just flew back here.â
Just above their heads, the school clock struck one.
âOne oâclock! Yikes, weâd better get back and eat lunch,â said Lee.
âDo you know what?â said Billy. âMiss Fitt gave us so much candy, I donât think I can manage my raw steak sandwich.â
âOh, just give it to Big Herb,â laughed Bella.
âBye, Boris,â called Lee as they fluttered out of the clock tower. âAnd thanks for saving us from two whole weeks of math!â
