Halloween morning. Only about a bajillion plus hours til trick-or-treating began (well, actually, it was only about 7 ou 8...but toi know how much kids and teens exaggerate). Kacey trodded down the stairs in her Halloween PJS (ones with a bunch of bats on them). She went into the cuisine to get her self a bowl of arc en ciel Munchies when she heard a strange noise coming from behind the door. She sighed.
"Kiki, I know it's you." Kacey a dit while rolling her eyes.
Kiki stomped her foot and cursed under breath as she stepped out from behind the door. She had her "Darling Dracula" arc en ciel Monkey nightgown on.
"I can't wait for tonight! All that candy...." Her mouth began watering.
"Didn't toi have enough last night?"
She shook her head.
"I'm a semi candy-holic. I can't help it."
Kacey rolled her eyes and stuck a spoonful of cereal in her mouth.
--------------------------------------------------
(7:30-ish, Halloween Night)
"Silver items?" Megan asked.
"Check." Christian checked.
"Garlic and wooden stakes?" David asked.
"Check." Maddy checked.
"Spank-proof undies?" Wally asked.
"Check! I've got the pair with the arc en ciel Monkeys on them!" Kiki a dit enthusiastically through her fake fangs.
David and Christian got the O_O look on their face.
"TMI! TMI!"
Megan was growing impatient. The combination of most of the kids getting into character was getting annoying.
"Meow! Meow! Meow!" Maddy said.
Megan bared her claws at her sister...who immediatley shut up.
Christian jumped out from behind the couch.
"I vant to suck your blood!" he hissed.
"You better NOT!" Val threatened.
Christian shot her the Bela Lugosi-as-Dracula look.
"No, no, no, you're doing it wrong." Kiki a dit while emerging from the bathroom.
"How would toi know....what are toi goin' as again?" David scoffed.
"Dracula's baby sister. And how would I know?"
She dimmed the lights and pulled off the look almost perfectly.
"I've seen the movie a bajillion times over." she finished in a Transylvanian accent.
Kacey walked down the stairs in her costume.
Everyone (especially Kuki)'s jaw dropped.
"YOU'RE GOING AS WALLY?!" she shrieked.
"Yeah. What of it?"
Kuki inhaled, but Kiki stopped her.
"Come on! I wanna get to as many houses as possible!" she persisted while dragging her out the door.
--------------------------------------------------
(8:00, Halloween night)
Only a half-hour had passed, and all 3 sectors had hit about 40 houses. So far, this Halloween was going great....well, except the part where they got Lost in the woods.
Kacey smacked her cousin upside her head.
"Way to go, numbnuts! Now we're lost!"
Megan's eyes grew huge.
"L-l-lost? In the WOODS?! Don't toi remember what happened last time we got Lost in the woods?!!"
Everyone shuddered.
"Hang on...I'll text Daddy, and see if he can come and lead us in the right direction."
Kiki's eyes grew huge. She ducked behind a arbre and hid beneath her cape.
"Lemme know when he's gone!" she whimpered.
Kacey rolled her eyes.
Val texted at lightning speed and hit "sent".
She didn't get a response til about 3 minutes later.
"What took him so long?" Maddy asked.
Val did a facepalm.
"Typical parent. Has to spell EVERYTHING out."
"What does he say?" Kuki asked.
Val cleared her throat:
"Valentina Louise Spankulot! I expect my daughter to use phonics and spelling correctly...I don't vant toi to turn into a delinquint!"
She texted back:
"How in H-E-dubbl hockee stix wil it turn me in2 a delinquint?!"
Her phone vibrated 4 minutes later.
"What's it say this time?" Kiki asked.
"Young lady! I vill NOT tolerate your backtalk!"
She sighed and closed her phone.
"Let's just try and find our way out of here. Dad's being a buttmunch."
--------------------------------------------------
(9:00 PM, Halloween Night)
"I'm tired!" Maddy whined.
"I'm hungry!" Christian moaned.
"I have to pee!" David cried.
"Then go on a tree!" Kacey yelled.
"No way! It's, like, 30 degrees out here!"
Kiki rolled her eyes. She then squinted.
"I think I see a light up ahead..."
"NO KIKI! DON'T GO TOWARDS THE LIGHT!!!" Megan shouted.
"Not THAT kind of light!"
She ran ahead. Everyone else followed.
The group all stopped in front of a BIG house.
"Let's see if anyone's home...."
Val grabbed her friend's shirt.
"No way, dude. I got a weird feeling about this place. BAD weird."
Kiki wriggled her way out of her grip and went inside.
"You're not gonna knock?!" Kacey whisper-yelled.
"Hey, it wasn't locked!" she shot back.
Abby did a facepalm.
-----------
"Hellooooooooo? Anyone home?" Kacey called out for what seemed like the millionth time.
"Let's get out of here..." Megan whimpered.
Hoagie grabbed her arm.
"Don't worry, my little l’amour muffin....I will protect you!" Hoagie a dit seductively.
Just then, a large shadow appered. It had a semi-frail, kindly, and rather creepy (but pretty high-pitched) voice that called out:
"Hello, dearies!"
Hoagie fainted.
Megan rolled her eyes.
"My hero....."
