The University Life

The Final Challenge

Mike was roaring in front of the mirror. Sam was on sitting on the window's ledge and Sulley was lying in his bed, that he and Sam still shared, quiet as a mouse.

"We're going to win this thing tomorrow. Sull, Sam, I can feel it!, We'll finally have our lives back on track." Mike plopped down on his bed.

"Hey, Mike?, You know, you've given me a lot of really great scaring tips. I'd love to return the favor sometime," Sulley told him.

"Oh. Yeah, sure. Anytime," Mike replied.

Sulley got off his bed and moved a chest to the other side of the room. "We're doing this now?" Mike stood.

"Okay. You've memorized every textbook, every scare theory, and that is great," Sulley threw Mike's book out the window. Sam heard a cat meow.

"Hey!"

"But, now it's time to forget all that. Just reach deep down and let the scary out!"

"Huh. Just feel it," Mike paraphrased.

"Exactly. Go wild," Sulley confirmed.

"I don't know. I've kind of got my own technique," Mike replied.

"Give it a try, Mike." Sam encouraged him, while leaning against the wall.

Mike got in a stance and gave a roar. "Good, but bigger!" Sulley encouraged. Mike tried again, jumping off a chair. "Nope. You're thinking again. From the gut!" Mike jumped off the bunk beds and gave another roar. "Let the animal out!" Mike used the lamp as he roared. "Come on!, Dig deep!"

Mike let out another roar. Suddenly, they hear Mrs. Squibbles yell, "Boys!, Samantha!. It's a school night!"

"So, how was that?" Sam gave him a double thumbs up.

"Up top," Sulley raised his hand, which Mike hit.

"You know, it did feel different!, I feel like it's all coming together." Mike, Sulley, and Sam went to their beds. Sam closed her eyes and heard Mike say, "Yup, this time tomorrow the whole school is finally going to see what Mike Wazowski can do."

Sulley let out a chuckle, "You got that right."

Sam was quiet for a minute, then she spoke up, "Sulley?" Sam licked her lips, "There is something, that I want to tell you."

Sulley turned his head to her, "What is it?"

Sam turned to face him. "I will tell you after the final event tomorrow." She smiled at him, "Whether, we win or lose." She turned around on her side, so that her back was facing Sulley. "Night, Sulley." Sam whispered to him.

Sulley stared at the ceiling before closing his eyes with a smile on his face. "Night, Sam." He whispered back.

Neither of them noticed that Mike was awake and heard their entire conversation.

Mike was now not only waiting to win the games tomorrow, but also to see Sam admit her feelings to Sulley.

The entire school was singing their school's anthem at the final scare game. Everyone had their hands on their hearts. "Monsters University, we give our heart to you. Wherever children are dreaming, we'll bring them nightmares, too. Oh, Monsters University, Alma Mater hail to you."

"Welcome to the final competition of the scare games," Claire announced. then, the crowd cheered and the band played. Sam's team and the RORs walked closer to the white starting line.

"It's time to see how terrifying, you really are, in the scare simulators!" Brock announced.

"But be warned. Each of the scare simulator has been set to the highest difficulty level," Claire told the teams.
