The suivant jour was normal; everyone went to the underground place and got what everyone called "Monster Updates". The suivant jour was the Halloween Bash, and everyone buzzed with excitement.

Right before first period Emma went up to Mellissa and Eve wearing a witch hat. "Hey! Aren't toi guys excited?!" Emma exclaimed. "Yeah!" Eve and Mellissa said. "Mel, are toi going with anyone?" Eve asked. "Leo, but just as friends. I'm not ready for guys yet." Mellissa motioned to her brother, who was goofing around with his Friends in the hall. Eve and Emma nodded in understanding.

At lunch they sorted everything out--- Raymonde saved up a month's allowance to pick everyone up in a limo. Leo, Raymonde, and Jake would pick the girls up from Emma’s place, go to the dance, and then the guys would drop them off at Eve's house for a sleepover. They all agreed--- that night was going to be the best night ever.

During the day, nobody could pay attention to class. When the cloche, bell rung, 7th graders scattered to the gym to help decorate, and everyone else was in a rush to get home.

Eve, Emma, Mellissa, Raymonde, Jake, and Leo were in the gym, helping with decorations. Jack-o-lantern banners were all over the place. Tables were to the side with a black and crimson araign? e, araignée web table, tableau cover. There was a table, tableau with a bunch of snacks that wouldn't get cold ou wouldn't get warm. There were speakers and a DJ booth... Everything was perfect. They helped dim the lights to a great level.

Finally, after lots of hard work, it was time to go accueil and get ready. Eve and Mellissa rang the doorbell to Emma’s house--- along with a few kids and parents trick-or-treating.

Mellissa was in a light rose mini dress with sparkly rose leggings. Her hair was completely straight, which was unusual for Mellissa, because she a dit it wasn't her style, but she wore it like that sometimes for special occasions. She had fairy wings that had fleurs on them matching the one in her hair.

Eve had on a dark purple floor length dress with one strap on the right. Her hair was down for once, and to the side, held there with bobby pins.

Both girls had bags full of make-up, accessories and shoes. Emma opened the door holding an orange bowl full of candy. She had on the same witch hat she wore to school but had on a black dress with green stitching.

"Trick-or-treat!!!" The small kids chimed. They got their Candy and moved on. As for Mellissa and Eve, they went inside.

"Awe, Mellissa, don't toi look cute!" Emma teased. "I Lost a bet with my sister. toi know that!" Mellissa barked, and sat on the living room floor and dumped the contents from her bag, and Eve did the same. "Eve, you're first for make-up!" Emma exclaimed. "Okay," Eve said, "But not too much."

Mellissa and Emma backed away from Eve's face and picked up the mirror. Her face was covered in grey make-up and she had on bright red lipstick. "You guys are awesome! This make-up... wow! Now you, Mellissa." Eve exclaimed.

Eve and Emma finished Mellissa's make-up five minutes later. "You look awesome!" Emma said. Sparkly eye shadow covered her eyelids. A layer of bright rose lipstick was on her lips. "Cuh-ute!!!" Mellissa cried.

Finally it was Emma’s turn. There was red lipstick on her lips and a fake môle, mole below her left eye, which actually made her look hot. "Ooh la la cute witch in zee house!" Emma a dit in her best French accent. The girls laughed, then began to pull out jewelry and shoes.

par the time the rest of the crew got to Emma’s place the girls were totally beautified. "Whoa toi all look amazing!" Kenya said. "Thanks, toi too. Are toi the goddess of the sea?" Eve asked. "Yeah, glad SOMEONE has been studying their Greek mythology." Kenya looked Emma up and down. "You got your cast off, I see," She said. "Yup, and it feels great. We'd better get going. My parents are out tonight, so we can just go." Emma said. Once they all filed into the limo they started bubbling with excitement. Five minutes later they were at the school. They got out the car and ran towards the school. They stopped outside the school doors, and snapped a scary cool picture. The gang went inside and to the gym. "Whoa..." Leo said, walking through the gym doors. "Amazing..." Mellissa, Emma, and Eve a dit at the same time. They ran inside like kids in a Candy store. Lady GaGa's "Poker Face" blared from the two foot speakers, vibrating everything around them.

After an heure of dancing, talking, and snacks, Eve and Raymonde sat down at one of the round tables with gargoyles on them, out of breath from bobbing for apples. "So, after the cruise, toi know, after we get situated and all, maybe we could go to that new pizza place down the street? Y'know... just me and you." Raymonde asked sincerely. "Like a date?" Eve suggested. "Well---" "I'd l’amour to."

Out on the dance floor, Emma and Jake were talking to each other. "Y'know, I've kind of really liked you." Jake said. "Obviously. Me too!" Emma replied. "No, like, like you, like you. Okay, I'm ready for rejection." Jake stated. Emma leaned in, kissed him and a dit "Does that feel like rejection to you?" Jake would have stood there like an idiot all night if Emma hadn’t dragged him with the rest of the group.

Right now, none of them cared that there was a very tight space, ou that cheesy Halloween musique was blasting through the speakers, because they were having the time of their lives with the people that they wanted to be with most. Nobody could ruin it, not even Jannia and her crew. Only one thing could, though, and that's when Eve felt it. Her head was spinning, she felt weak, and her whole body ached. "Are toi okay, Eve?" Mellissa asked, dragging her out with the gang into a aléatoire room, one minute before she collapsed into a chair. They didn't notice that Ms. Winters was in the room. She walked up to the group and a dit "I knew this would happen. Ok, boys, we've got it from here."

When Eve woke up, she still felt weak. Ms. Winters gave her what looked like a red soda can say "Here, drink it, it will help." Eve opened the cold can with a "fsssh" and took a long sip. It tasted unexplainable, but when she drank it she got a burst of energy. "What is that stuff?" Eve asked. "Krimson par Vampure. It's a blood substitute for vampires who don't want to drink human blood ou animal blood. If toi don't drink anything, well, you... die." Mellissa answered. Eve nodded as Emma passed her a glacière and glacière bag full of the red drink. "Thank you." They all said, walking out of the room. Jake, Leo, and Raymonde were waiting at the door. "What happened? Are toi okay?" Jake asked. "Yeah, just dehydration problem." Eve really wanted to get off the topic. "Should we go? The dance ends at ten, and its five minutes 'til." Mellissa asked. A series of looks were passed around the circle, and they silently agreed on leaving. The girls had brought bags for the things they needed for the sleepover and the trip in the morning, and had them in the limo.
