-------------------------------

Previously Nathan had been turned into a dum dum were-aykroyd as part of Vic Frohmeyer’s plan and the whole town of Oakendale, or rather his version of it had been affected by a dum dum plague that Aykroydized them as well. But now everyone’s favorite duo and Mel had been summoned to help sort out the situation and they had a plan they were going to work on.

Corey, Oats and Mel were in this universe’s version of their Nile Road house keeping an eye out for dum dum were-aykroyds, so far none of Mel’s housemates had been turned into dum dum were-aykroyds as it hadn’t gotten to them yet. Carmela, Maria, Andrea, Jahna, and Belinda were safe and were keeping the room safe. This universe’s take on were-aykroyds was more vast than the ones in their own universe,  normally were-aykroyds are intelligent bruisers with psychic abilities and their own adorkable charms but there are different types of were-aykroyds.

Dum dums being one of those many different species of were-aykroyds, these types of were-aykroyds were silly and plus sized and loved food, they even v-logged about it and ate a lot, they were a gluttonous type of were-aykroyd that acted like Homer Simpson and served were-aykroyd masters.  These Were-Aykroyds didn’t seem to be harmful or dangerous but still a bit odd, at least to Nathan. Nathan had been in this version of his universe for a while and it was different than his unusual universe, in his universe dm dum were-aykroyds were considered somewhat of a joke but not in this one.

“So let me get this straight, Vic Frohmeyer and his dark were-aykroyds came here?”

“Yes, he and his dark were-aykroyds came to this universe to find me.”

“What do they want with you in this universe?”

“They want to make a dum dum were-aykroyd out of me.”

“You mean those guys are behind the plague?”

The duo decided to head out early in the evening to investigate, they looked out the window and saw what appeared to be multiple dum dum were-aykroyds lumbering around and they looked like they were searching for Nathan. ‘Do these dum dums have anything to do with you, Nate?’ ‘Yes, these dum dums want me. They act like I am one of them.’

Nathan looked over and he saw the dum dum were-aykroyds, all of them looked suitably silly and dum dum. ‘There he is, he shall belong to us.’  ‘What do they mean by that?’  ‘They are the brotherhood of dum dums and they are after me, they want me to join them.’  ‘So are they brothers?’  ‘Yes.’  The dum dum were-aykroyds lumbered after the duo, Mel and Nathan as the duo made their way through the house.

The dum dums made dum dum were-aykroyd noises as they searched for him…’Where is that dum dum?’ ‘Yes, that fellow dum dum must be found.’ Nathan saw what appeared to be someone being corrupted by the dum dum dums and turning into a dum dum were-aykroyd while someone else was just watching. ‘I cannot believe how stupid that person is. When that person says run, the other guy should run, not stand there like an idiot.’  ‘Well, you know maybe they have a fetish for watching other’s transform.’

“Or they’re just typical horror movie characters.”

‘Yeah, that too.”

Corey sighed as he floated down the hallway, Nathan saw the dum dum were-aykroyds coming into the house, and he tried to fend them off but the dum dums broke in. ‘We know you are one of us, dum dum.’  ‘Come and drop your human facade and join us.’ ‘I won’t join you.’  He attempted to run away from them, afraid of what they would do to him as Mel, Corey and Oats followed him.

Eventually he decided to try and investigate it for himself as he followed the duo and Mel through a portal that took them to the home of the dum dums, the home of the dum dum were-aykroyd brotherhood looked like some kind of extravagant manor, which was unusual for a place owned by such slovenly creatures.  He knew dum dums were somewhat gluttonous and decadent in terms of tastes, but the fact that the dum dum brotherhood lived in such an elegant abode was surprising to him.

Corey and Oats looked around, seeing artwork depicting plus sized were-aykroyds being worshipped like gods or treated like royalty, but they weren’t sexualized for their weight, instead rather respected. Nathan thought it was oddly elegant for a were-aykroyd abode nonetheless but liked it, as he looked around.

The dum dums invited him to feed and feast with them and he did so, he was able to do so and get along with them, as he did he feasted on several foods the dum dums gave to him, the food didn’t seem to have any effect on him, up until a couple of seconds later when he started feeding on cookies, as he did he started to belch uncontrollably and his hands slowly began to enlarge and grow hair on them, the hair slowly crept up his arms which also began to broaden.

His stomach slowly gurgled and inflated as it pushed against his belt, his belt slowly beginning to unbuckle itself as his stomach gained weight and grew brown hairs on it, causing his shirt to get tighter,  he belched a number of times as his shirt buttons puckered and popped off, his torso and chest broadening and swelling and growing hair on it.

He belched loudly as he rubbed his growing stomach, there was something about rubbing his stomach that felt soothing to him, it wasn’t an act of hedonism or anything, he just liked rubbing his belly as it swelled and transformed, his shirt strained even more as it ripped apart, revealing his fattening upperbody.  His stomach slowly swelled and pushed against his belt even more as his belt slowly broke apart due to his stomach bursting through it.

Corey and Oats watched as they saw their friend turning into a large Were-aykroyd, and they were shocked at how much he liked it. ‘I am a good dum dum who loves feeding, I love growing and feeding for my master, tee hee!’ ‘Nathan, what is wrong with you?’ ‘I am just being taken over by the dum dum, nothing to worry about.’  ‘Nothing to worry about? You’re ballooning up like in those weight gain stories some weirdos on Furaffinity write!’  

Nathan backed away for a bit as he removed his shoes to reveal his enlarging feet, as two of the toes stuck together on both feet, becoming joined at the knuckle and looking webbed, he recounted previous experiences of becoming a were-aykroyd such as encountering another version of himself, having an almost unending hunger one night and coughing up what appeared to be strange ooze and other things he didn't remember eating prior to going to bed, he remembered the odd experience of coughing up dum dum food after he ate it only for said food ooze to reform and turn into a were-aykroyd spawn.  

Were-Aykroyd spawn or ‘dum dum were-aykroyd’ spawn are strange miniature were-aykroyds that are spawned by a were-aykroyd in a number of ways, and Nathan remembered what the one he encountered looked like, a small weird looking were-aykroyd.  Nathan gasped as his rear swelled and swelled, his legs thickening with fat as loud farts emitted from his behind as he shot up to 6’1 while his back and shoulders broadened. ‘Ooops, silly me, I am so dum dum I forget I am gassy, tee hee!’ ‘Nathan, this isn’t you.’   ‘I am sorry, I cannot control the were-aykroyd within me, he feels so stupid and silly.’

The duo tried their best to help Nathan suppress his were-aykroydian instincts while also helping him out, he looked over at them as his hair lengthened and darkened, the hunger was influencing him as he started to think about feeding, and he began to feed from the fridge, eating every single food item in the fridge and belching loudly, it was clear the ravenous hunger of this growing were-aykroyd was taking over more than slightly.

‘Can you control yourself?’ ‘Sometimes, sometimes I cannot.’  ‘Is this new dum dum body to yours confusing?’ ‘Very much so, yes…it feels very alien.’ He chuckled as he felt his body and his neck slowly began to swell with fat as his forehead elevated and his eyebrows thickened, his eyes widened, one turning from brown to green as his nose broadened and developed a cleft.

Corey looked over at the other dum dum were-aykroyds…’Whatever you are doing, stop it, you are harming our friend.’  ‘He belongs to us,  he is a dum dum just like us, and he is a good dum dum.’  ‘But he is our friend, you cannot make a dum dum out of our pal!’

The duo charged toward the dum dums and used their powers to fend them off as Mel used magic, Nathan felt his face as it plumped up and his face slowly shifted to resemble Dan Aykroyd’s own. ‘Hee hee, my master loves to feed me! I love to grow and feed, tee hee!’ ‘Snap out of it Nathan.’ ‘I’m sorry, I cannot help myself. The dum dum is taking over me.’

Nathan moaned as his voice deepened and contorted, sounding Aykroydian in pitch and in nature, making him sound like he was Dan Aykroyd but he also took on some goofy and silly mannerisms as he felt more like he was one of them, he loved to grow and feed and transform, he loved his ‘master’.  ‘My master makes me happy, he says I am a good dum dum who always listens, no thoughts up there, just happy dum dum thoughts!’

He groaned as his intelligence slowly slipped away a little and his personality shifted further, his memories shifting to make him think that he was a fat dum dum were-aykroyd who existed to live for his master, but he didn’t lose his mind completely,  more explosive were-aykroyd farts emitted from his rear as he let more and more of them rip.

Oats covered his nose and muzzle with his hands, to keep himself from being affected by the were-aykroyd farts, luckily he didn’t get affected by them and neither did Corey as the two of them saw Nathan’s Aykroyd character siblings who had helped summon them to this universe in the first place, who helped them with their plan.

Meanwhile some of Vic Frohmeyer’s dark were-aykroyd minions had been watching and were about to get Nathan when Mel did battle with them, she asked Nathan how they got to his universe.  Nathan explained that Frohmeyer and the dark were-aykroyds must have found their way into this universe or they have counterparts in this universe.

Corey was a bit perplexed about the dum dums..’If the dum dums were so comically silly, how are they able to break through doors like that?’ ‘Don’t underestimate the silly ones, Corey.’  ‘You’re right.’  ‘Those dum dums may look ridiculous and act equally as ridiculous but they are actually quite brainy, no stupid dum dum thoughts.’ 

Nathan lumbered towards the door…’Looks like you two want to play with the dum dums and play dum dum with me!’ ‘Nathan, remember who you are. You are a human who is cursed to turn into a were-aykroyd, not a dum dum were-aykroyd, well in this universe you are but you are still our friend.’

He snapped out of it as he looked over at them…’Sorry about that, trying to control this dum dum side of mine is a bit a problem.’  ‘I can totally get that, I mean you didn’t ask to be made into a dum dum.’  ‘When I got were-aykroyd powers from Dan himself, I thought I was just going to get cool were-aykroyd powers, I never knew the Aykroydverse in all its variants would be so complicated.’

‘I know,  you weren’t told you were going to be a dum dum.’  ‘Indeed, it was definitely something that I never knew would happen because I felt like well dum dum were-aykroyds are a joke.’  ‘At least you didn’t lose your intellect when you turned into one.’  ‘Yeah, that’s a major fear of mine. I don’t want to be one of those too stupid to live were-aykroyds.’  ‘Or too big to move, right?’  ‘Exactly.’

Nathan chuckled to himself as he looked around, he explained that the were-aykroyd dum dum plague was by nature a nocturnal plague that always wore off in the morning and the humans turned back to normal when the sun went back home.  Explaining that the plague was one that was spread via belches and farts,  and that these dum dums acted quite silly but were actually quite smart.

Corey picked up a lot on what he was being told and he asked Nathan if any foods were the culprit and he pointed out that some cookies could dum dum cookies were what was causing it and he worked on a plan, as the duo headed over to what appear to be a food stand that had all the dum dum foods on sale, Oats gulped and felt a bit worried.

‘It’s a good thing we cannot become dum dums.’ ‘Yes, i’ve got nothing against were-aykroyds but being a stupid one is not something I want to be.’  ‘Agreed there.’  Nathan nodded as they made their way over to the stand and took photos of the evidence before working on a plan to get to the bottom of this case, more than that, the duo had to figure out what the ‘master’s plan was for him too, clearly this master had more in-store for Nathan than making him a mindless minion, because this master seemed unlike the previous masters.

Previous were-aykroyd masters ranged from nurturing, fatherly and caring to being unhinged to being psychotic and controlling, he had so many throughout his run as a were-aykroyd he had lost track of them all and forgotten just how many he had, of course having so many masters and only a few of them stayed around to keep him safe definitely confused him.

Oats offered to assist as he traveled through what appeared to be an area of sorts and he came across a strange series of commercials on the tvs on the window, the commercials showed humans turning into plus sized silly were-aykroyds after eating the cookies.  ‘Are those the dum dum cookies that create more dum dums?’  ‘Yes, the dum dum cookies that mutate people into dum dum were-aykroyds.’

Corey kept out of sight as the dum dum were-aykroyd cookie delivery men walked by, looking suitably silly in the process. ‘These guys look so silly.’ ‘I know, that’s their thing.’ ‘That’s why they are called dum dums.’  ‘Come on, let’s investigate further.’

The duo decided to investigate the warehouse where all the dum dum foods and dum dum cookies were being stored and decided an extensive bit of research was needed and so they headed out to investigate further, investigating the warehouse and taking photos of what they had spotted, and they spotted a were-aykroyd spirit.

The were-aykroyd spirit was a dum dum spirit and it was obvious he and the ‘master’ had plans for Nathan, and he didn’t view Nathan as just another human to corrupt into being a dum dum were-aykroyd, the spirit clearly was in need of someone to serve as a host for his power, to make into a dum dum were-aykroyd just like him and he had plans of possessing Nathan.

“The spirit wants to possess you?”

“Yes, that’s what I am getting too.”

Oats nodded and agreed on the plan as he and Corey made their way towards what appeared to be the ‘den’ of the were-aykroyd spirit, a horde of dum dum were-aykroyds lumbered towards them but the duo were able to fight them off and were immune to their powers as they navigated through what happened to be where the spirit was.

Nathan explained how this were-aykroyd encounter was different than all of the previous ones including meeting another version of himself, the times Dan (his were-aykroyd persona) tried to take over him and make him his, and times in which he felt like he was going to go full were-aykroyd,  all of these previous experiences differed in comparison to his recent adventures here.

Corey agreed that the universe they were currently in was very strange,  it was like their own regular one just with were-aykroyds and he did find it odd that dum dums had more of a prominent role in this universe as opposed to how they were perceived as a comic relief in this universe,  he thought dum dum were-aykroyds were very curious but he was even more curious about the spirit, the spirit clearly had one goal in mind (he wanted to possess Nathan and transform him), and thus of course this meant it would likely happen in some way.

The covid microbe and his equine buddy began to delve deeper into the investigation and did some research about what was going on, exploring how exactly the spirit’s plan was going to put into action, he did extensive research on were-aykroyd spirits and how they worked.

Upon the papers that he discovered, he found an ancient book of were-aykroyd lore that had been left from the library and he picked it up and gave it a read, it continued some valuable information about were-aykroyd spirits, where they originated from, what they were like and what they did, as well as the origin and how each of them used their powers.

Another book mentioned a transformation method and how each were-aykroyd spirit was different in terms of relationships with the ‘hosts’, and Corey came to realize that it was through the connections with the host that the spirit had a symbiotic relationship with them.  ‘Oh so the hosts and the were-aykroyd spirit possessing them have a symbiotic relationship?’ ‘Yes, most definitely.’  ‘Are were-aykroyd spirits always like this?’  ‘I definitely think they are.’  

‘So how does this work?’ ‘The spirit of a were-aykroyd chooses whoever they deem as worthy of possession and the person they possess slowly is turned into a were-aykroyd.’  Nathan nodded, picking up more useful guides about being a were-aykroyd. ‘Thanks Nathan.’  ‘No problem, I thought you could use some more info on the subject.’

Corey examined a guidebook about were-aykroyds, with lots and lots of guides to transforming into a were-aykroyd, he looked around and searched for a means to try and communicate with the spirit of the dum dum were-aykroyd, using a spell to read the spirit’s mind and communicate to him in a telepathic way, the duo explained as they walked around for a bit.

Meanwhile Nathan was adjusting to his body, he was glad he wasn’t forced to waddle like most dum dum were-aykroyds did and that he could just walk like a normal human despite his hugely round body, and he was glad his movements had not been slowed down in the slightest by what he had happened, he had kept his mind and hadn’t become a full dum dum.

His experiences of nearly going full dum dum were-aykroyd were always frightening to him, he felt like he would lose control and become so ravenously hungry that all he could think about was food,  then again food was the main thing a were-aykroyd dum dum was driven towards, and he knew that for certain as he looked through the book.

There were Were-Aykroyd transformation spells and ones about how to keep a ‘pet’ were-aykroyd in line, which alarmed him because he thought of it as odd that some were-aykroyd masters called lesser were-aykroyds ‘pets’, not in a slavery context or anything like that, but it sounded like the masters kept these were-aykroyds under their control to corrupt them and make sure they never disagreed with them or disobey them.

The were-aykroyd dum dums had stopped, moving away so Corey could take a closer look. Mel collected some were-aykroyd DNA samples and compared them to Nathan’s…’This will make for some compelling research back at the house’.  ‘I definitely think so, and this will help us.’  She gathered some research papers as they all began to work on the next phase of their plan, the duo raced back to this universe’s version of Nile Road and told everyone about the dum dum were-aykroyds that were going around and about the plague.

They explained to Andrea how the plague worked and she helped out by giving them a recipe to a special healing formula they could use on Nathan should he end up going full dum dum were-aykroyd,  and they discovered how to use some useful techniques to keep dum dums from getting into the house.

Anglo the anglerfish and Aiyvan the monster both helped Corey with this plan as did Alcina, all the microbial gang members worked on a way to keep the dum dums from breaking into the house as they found a barrier spell to keep the spirit from entering.  ‘So this spirit wants to corrupt Nathan into being a dum dum?’ ‘By taking over his body, yes.’  ‘This sounds like a team effort is in order.’  ‘Anglo, do you think you could use your light to guide us through the hallways?’ ‘Sure can, hee hee.’  ‘Aiyido, can you use your all-seeing eye and your eyebeams to help us battle with these dum dums?’  ‘You’ve called upon the right beholder.’

“Good.”

“This universe is a lot more dangerous than our normal one.”

‘Agreed. So we all must be careful.’ Oats added, being the responsible equine that he was he decided to work on building a means of figuring out the dum dums and trying to understand them, Nathan explained that when the dum dums came to his house he couldn’t understand what they were saying. ‘Did they speak any language, you know?’  ‘No, unless you count saying dum dum over and over as a language.’   ‘Oh so they say their names like Pokemon do?’  ‘Kind of, but not really, they made odd noises, I couldn’t exactly understand what the noises were.’

Corey headed into the lounge to do some research on the computer, using Google Maps to pinpoint the location of where the dum dum food supply warehouse was and he began to work on a means to keep the dum dums from getting in the house.  After a while, the dum dum were-aykroyd warehouse workers walked off and headed to their homes, this meant they could start work on their plan.  Nathan had brought in some of the boxes of dum dum cookies, saying that the cookies had an addictive effect on innocent humans, making them into dum dum were-aykroyds in that manner and explaining how it also made them extremely gassy,  he explained his were-aykroyd form was a very large and gassy one and that he couldn’t control himself at times.

“There there, it’s alright.”

“Yeah, it’s perfectly fine.”

“We can do this.”

The duo continued to work on their plan and to make more plans for keeping the dum dum were-aykroyds away,  now that most of the dum dum were-aykroyd workers were leaving and going home,  they thought it would be the perfect time to work on a plan. They asked for Maria and Belinda’s help and Mel got out all the toys needed to pull off this brilliant operation and means of combating them.

Corey knew that this universe of were-aykroyds was going to be a difficult one to navigate but he was most definitely not afraid, he knew of what he needed to be done and to work on the next part of the plan, using his knowledge of were-aykroyds to help.  Mel knew that she would definitely be able to assist too, as she had brought her own world’s expertise into the mix.

“So we are going to work on a master plan to survive in this universe?”

“Yes,  this is a difficult universe and we are going to try our best to survive in it.”

This plan was going to be one that both of them had faith in and they really wanted this to work, Nathan was able to look up everything about dum dum were-aykroyds using the computer along with Mel.  Corey presented several files on the subject and a website dedicated to were-aykroyd lore, he clicked on an article about dum dum were-aykroyds and their methods, he clicked on a video which showed a dum dum were-aykroyd belching on someone and transforming them into a were-aykroyd like the one who had belched on them.

He found a collection of odd costumes on another page including a kimono, an alien looking robe, a fat suit, and an ornate dress. ‘What is the dress for, some kind of strange ornate ritual involving dancing, or is the were-aykroyd a crossdresser?’ ‘If I have to hazard a guess, there’s one were-aykroyd in need of a bride.’ ‘Do you think that bride could be…’ 

Mel shook her head…’Oh no, not me. I have a boyfriend.’  ‘Well it cannot be Nathan, he’s male.’  ‘Can a male even become a female were-aykroyd?’ ‘According to this website, yes.’  ‘You’re kidding, you’ve got to be kidding! There is no way a male human can be turned into a female were-aykroyd!’

‘A male human being turned into a were-aykroyd female is possible, according to this. Look at this, a male were-aykroyd holding a ring.’  ‘Do you think the ring is what triggers the transformation?’  Corey thought for a second before examining the site and looking at a were-aykroyd story that was read out to be a story of a human who was turned into a female dum dum were-aykroyd.

‘Possibly.’  ‘Or maybe it’s some kind of special food.’  ‘Look! There’s some kind of collar!’ ‘A collar? Is this some kind of pet ordeal?’ ‘According to the website, the collar is used to alter the behavior of the human to make them more accepting of becoming a were-aykroyd!’  ‘Well that sounds forceful and evil to me! Who would do such a horrible thing to someone?’  ‘Were-aykroyds in this universe apparently do that to some people, especially dum dums.’  

“Dum were-aykroyds take humans to their lair?”

“Exactly.”

“So what of were-aykroyd spirits?’  ‘Were-aykroyd spirits can possess humans and sometimes other residents of this universe into becoming were-aykroyds, but don’t worry I don’t think that us microbes can be turned.’  ‘Thank goodness for that!’ replied Sam Sars…’I am a virus microbe, I am supposed to be the one doing the infecting, not being infected myself.’  ‘Exactly!’

‘And i’m a beholder!’ Aiyido added. ‘The only way i’d ever become a were-aykroyd is if I dreamed of being one and well, an Aykroyd/beholder mix would be a most terrifying sight indeed.’  ‘And I am a monster already!’ Aiyvan added to that. ‘What good would being turned into another monster do to me? Look I adore were-aykroyds as much as the next monster but being turned into one in this universe kind of scares me.’  ‘I’m an anglerfish! I cannot be anything else!’  ‘Absolutely.’

‘And well you know me, I am a horse!’  ‘Exactly, even if we did become were-aykroyds we would likely be able to reverse it some way.’ ‘And also, dearest brother, I am a virus microbe as well and cannot be turned!’ Corey explained, working on the rest of his plan.

“Yes, exactly…this plan will work and we will be able to stop the dum dums.”

“Thank goodness! We don’t want to end up like how Nathan nearly did!”

“That’s indeed right, my friend!”

And so the duo spent the next several hours of the night working on their plan and setting up a special security system to keep any intruders out including dum dum were-aykroyds, they walked around and made sure they didn’t get turned by the dum dums and that their home was safe and sound.

Corey gathered up all the information he could about were-aykroyds and were-aykroyd lore, saving all the information he could. Nathan was also helping out, making sure that no one had hacked the computer, luckily unlike the previous time he had been turned into a dum dum were-aykroyd in one of his previous universes, his favorites had not been altered to were-aykroyd centric sites.

Mel of course had sent to an email to this universe’s version of Jill, explaining her situation and what was going on, hoping Jill would understand and of course she most certainly did. ‘Oats, do you think you could help keep a close eye on the place?’  ‘Oh you know i’m more than willing to do that, mommy.’  ‘Good, come on, let’s do this!’

Of course Oats stood by and kept a close eye on the place, making sure that the dum dums didn’t cross his path, being a loyal horse and being very reliable and helpful. He took note of the strange but rather elegant, neatly done and ornate dress that was clearly made for a female were-aykroyd.  ‘I know this dress was made for a female were-aykroyd but…hear me out, if this little number was in my size I'd definitely wear it.’  ‘Oh Oatsie!’

Nathan described what the home of the dum dum were-aykroyd brotherhood was like, describing it as rather elegant and decadent, he never expected such a dirty subspecies of were-aykroyd to have such an elegant home but it felt like a hotel or palace when he looked around in it, of course he made note of how unusual kind they were to him as opposed to the previous group of dum dums, his siblings who were all Dan Aykroyd characters helped with this plan and he worked on a method to keep the dum dum transformation from spreading further, Corey of course knew it would take a lot of time to get this plan to come to fruition and he’d need more help so he contacted this universe’s versions of Tarrant Hightop, the Hessian Horseman, Serena, and Tim Burton to help make sense of the situation.

When all the stages of the plan were all planned out, they decided to stop for a bit and rested for the night with Aiyido standing around guarding the place and keeping it safe. Nathan of course tried his best to stay awake ,but fell asleep and was taken to the bedroom by Mel.  ‘Try to get some sleep, okay? We have got this, just relax and sleep well.’  ‘I will, thanks.’

Mel kissed him goodnight before laying down with him and the microbes and with the squishmallow squad including Anglo, Anglo diligently watched over the place and made sure the dum dums didn’t enter.  Meanwhile Nathan’s Aykroyd character siblings stood guard as well, protecting the place.

Corey and Alcina cuddled closely together as they turned off the lights and had sweet dreams, Aivyan stayed close by to make sure he wouldn’t be gotten by the were-aykroyd dum dums and he comforted the others, all of the family and friends worked together to make sure all would go smoothly.

Meanwhile…the were-aykroyd dum dum spirit was looking through the window and over at Nathan, planning his next move. ‘Yes, that human shall be mine. I shall make him just like me, soon.’  But he was shooed off by Aiyido the beholder, who scared him with a roar and the blast of his eye rays.

By now all the dum dum dum were-aykroyds were gone and this universe’s version of Nile Road was safe, for now at least. Although back at the warehouse that night, Vic Frohmeyer had begun work on trying to corrupt Nathan’s friends into being were-aykroyds to be part of his dark army, and he had plans on going after the microbes next.

Nathan slept through the night peacefully, only having the occasional were-aykroyd related sleep disturbances.  When he awoke in the morning, he opened the windows and he saw the sun-rise, when he saw the sunrise he turned back from a dum dum were-aykroyd back into his normal form, he got dressed and said good morning to all the friends and family members before going over to have breakfast in the lounge.

As far as he could see, everything had turned back to normal, at least for the time being, since it was morning, and the dum dum were-aykroyds were nowhere to be seen.  So after breakfast they all decided to have a nice relaxing day and to work on the rest on their plan to stop the dum dums so that they would be prepared for the next several nights.

Mel of course used all the information she knew about were-aykroyds to assist them and pinpointed the ‘dum dum moon’ on Nathan’s calendar, which was a lunar event that caused dum dum were-aykroyd transformations and she pinpointed which dates this lunar event would take place on. 

The day was an eventful one as they continued to protect this universe’s version of Nile Road and to help Nathan deal with not only the dum dum were-aykroyd plague that happened each night but his own were-aykroyd alter-ego, the were-aykroyd spirit had spotted Nathan and knew that he had picked the perfect host, but he patiently waited for his new ‘host’ before making any moves, and thus this part of the dum dum were-aykroyd saga concludes.

With the conclusion of this part of the saga, the rest of the dum dum saga starts again in this exact same universe,  but to read more about that please see the followup stories ‘Corey and Oats in Invasion of the Dum Dum Were-Aykroyds’ ‘Corey and Oats in the Case of the Dum Dum Cookies’ ‘Corey and Oats VS The Dum Dums’ and also ‘The Dum Dum Were-Aykroyd Spirit’s Newest Host’, for these are the followups to this particular saga.

But more were-aykroyd transformation stories are coming up and even more ones involving Corey and Oats, so stay tuned.
