Happy Halloween!
Miki adjusted her blonde wig for what had to be the thirtieth time in the past half hour. She was dressed as a fairy tale princess, Cinderella. She even had the extravagant blue ball gown and 'glass' slippers to go with it. She was regretting accepting to babysit Hilary Kingston tonight of all nights. The 10 year old girl, who was dressed as a fairy, had demanded that they go trick or treating to every house before they could attempt to go to the local haunted house for fake scares.

Miki was really wishing that she'd planned this better.. and she was going to kill Egon for sending her this costume instead of the one she really wanted.

"Come on! Let's do this one!" Hilary ordered as she dragged Miki by the arm to yet another door.

With a sigh, Miki rang the doorbell. If this kept up, she may have to rethink her opinion of Halloween.

Vic wasn't a huge fan of Halloween. But he still gave out candy.

Why? He had a soft spot for adorable kids who want a sugar high. So, he carved a pumpkin and left his lights on for the neighborhood kids.

He found a Superman outfit at a local costume shop, so he got it. Looked oddly good on him.

Vic was watching The Omen, when his doorbell ring. Getting up he grabbed the big bowl of candy and opened the door.

And there was Miki with her charge for the evening. Her in what seemed to look like a princess outfit and the little one was a fairy. Vic was stunned.

"Wow...you look beautiful," Vic said looking at Miki's costume. He looks down at the little girl she was with. "And you're a very pretty fairy."

Susan walked up the sidewalk to Victor's house.
She was dressed in a low cut black dress and was wearing a cape that lined with a crimson lining. She was dressed as the Blood Countess.
Yes, she was trick or treating. Being under 'Bard's wing' for such a long time she had never socialized like humans did, and especially never on this night.
But now being on her own she wanted to try very human like things. And why not on the one night when she was most human like?

You see Ex-demons like Weirdbard on this night lost all their demonic powers and were locked into their human appearance till dawn the next day.
It was some kind of rule agreed upon by Lucifer and God that Susan didn't really understand.
In any case for this night she wasn't Susan the imp but just Susan the human enjoying the night.

Coming up behind a woman with a child, Susan didn't recognize Miki but frowned as she saw how unruly and downright bratty the child was being.
She even stepped half way into the house just so she could tread on Victor's nice cape he was wearing.

Susan shook her head in wonderment. Sometimes human children acted more demonic that demon things did.

Susan waited patiently for Victor to deal with the woman and the child so she could get his reaction to her costume.

Would anyone notice if this kid went missing? Miki thought to herself. She hadn't even had time to react properly to Vic before Hilary decided to show off her unfairy-like behavior. "Hilary, knock it off or else you'll end up getting your house covered in egs and toilet paper."

"Oh, no one would ever do that here!" Hilary snapped and stuck her tongue out. She held out her flower shaped container full of candy. "Dish it out, Superboy!"

Come midnight, Miki was sure someone would get the Kingston house. She just had to check her egg stash. She flashed Vic an apologetic smile and mouthed 'Sorry' to him. She was going to thank him for the compliment too, but she noticed another visitor nearby. She turned to step aside, trying not to step on her skirt in the process and failing miserably, only to see it was Susan. Her eyes widened. "Susan? Is that you? That costume is hot!"

Vic mouthed it was okay.

"Dish it out?"

This girl went from cute to a few steps beyond annyoing in a few seconds.

"If you want any candy, you're gonna have to be polite and say 'Trick or Treat'."

Kids today.

Vic turned to see Susan's costume.

"Wow. Susan you look...wow. That costume is just...have I said wow? Cause really. Its wow."

Vic made sure to make eye contact with both of them. Though his eyes did want to focus on their...assets, that were enhanced in their costumes.

Susan smiles at their compliments and brushes her dress down.

"Thank you. I had a hard time finding the black fishnet stockings to go with it because 13 had stolen all of mine." I put my leg out a bit so it stick out through the slit of the dress to show the stockings.

Seeing Miki and Victor looking at me, I shrug. "Don't ask. I think he sells them on Ebay." Under my breath I add. "At least I hope that is what he does with them."

To Miki, I ask. "Who is this young lady with you tonight?"

"This little ter-" Miki had to fix her original statement, "-rrific fairy is Hilary Kingston."

Hilary proceeded to give Vic the evil eye even as she said, "Trick or treat. Now give!" She glanced at Susan and scowled. "Aren't you a little old to go trick or treating by yourself? At least Cinderella has me with her. What's your excuse?"

Miki decided she didn't have enough eggs to make her feel better after this. She'd have to smash their pumpkins too. "Oh, for christ's sake, Hilary, will you shut the fuck up before I light your damn wings on fire?"

Oh. Shit. Miki's eyes went wide at her snappish remark and Hilary stared at her in horror. All was silence.

"...That was so awesome." Hilary said. "Can I be you when I grow up?"

Oh god, the Kingstons were going to kill her.

	Vic dug around in his bowl...he planned for kids such as her. "So adorable she is," Vic said through his teeth. "Here you go." He puts an apple in her bag. "Try not to choke on it." Only he kind of wanted her to. Was that wrong? Nah. Vic couldn't help but smile after the exchange between Miki and Hilary. Miki was so awesome. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"How old do I look?" Susan asks the child.
"It just happens that I had a very strict father and he never let me go trick or treating growing up so I thought it might be fun to try it at least once."

To self. "And why am I explaining this to a child?"

Susan looks over the kid's costume and smiles sweetly. "Oh, a fairy? I thought you were shooting for a harpy. My mistake."

"Your dad is a jerk." Hilary said with a rare bit of sympathy, the thought of the apple treat momentarily forgotten. "You should egg his house." She turned to Miki. "Can we egg his house?" Miki was about to say no, but Hilary kept on talking. "I wanted to go as a harpy but my mom said it wasn't what girls should be. She's stupid too. Can we egg her house too?"

Dear god, Miki thought to herself, whatever sins I did to deserve this I'm so so sorry. Please forgive me. I promise never to do bad things again. Or at least not on Sunday. Outloud she shook her head. "We are NOT egging anyone's house."

"But they deserve it!: Hilary insisted and then she glared at Vic. "So does Superboy. He gave me an apple! I bet it has a razor blade in it too! He wants to kill little kids on Halloween just like Aunt Jaimie says they do outside of Serenity Hills!"

"Okay, first of all, its Super-MAN. And I would never do anything to harm a child...but you're coming pretty close kid. I gave you that apple because you were very rude. Now, if you had been polite, you'd be enjoying these deilcious pieces of Hershey's chocolate."

He was arguing with a kid...his life was now, truly sad. And he just snapped at the kid.

"Help me out here," he said to Susan and Miki.

I look over at Miki and see her shoot me a look that basically said, I've got nothin. you?

Bending down till I was at the girl's height I ask her. "Do you by chance have any brothers? Guys that give you a hard time?"

The girl shook her head. "I'm an only child! My parents said when they had me they realize how lucky they were and stopped trying for more." The child frowned and stomped her foot. "I do have cousins that give me a hard time though."

"Well Hilary.... If you promise to behave like a little lady for the rest of the night for Miki, I'll talk Victor into exchanging your apple for some nice chocolate and I'll give you some tips on how to get even with your cousins in such a way you won't get caught."

I quickly whisper some of the things I've done to my brother imps that worked, but weren't too 'evil'.

Whatever Susan was saying to Hilary seemed to have calmed her down.. not to mention she was now eerily quiet. Miki didn't think that was a good sign.

"I'm doomed, I know it." She muttered.

Suddenly Hilary was pulling on Miki's skirt. "Can we go to the haunted house now? And can Susan come with us? I wanna hear more about what she's done to her brother." The girl cast a suspicious look at Vic. "If you leave the apples, you can come too."

Miki shrugged. Finally. No more trick or treating in her damn shoes. "If they want to come, they're more than welcome to."

	"Sure why not. I've faced actual ghosts, evil goddesses and other assorted things. Haunted house should be a walk in the park to me." He puts his candy bowl to the side and grabs a couple chocolate bars for Susan. And he decides to give Hilary some too. Hopint it would make her behave now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Imp possible night.

susan_imp
2008-11-18 01:45 pm UTC (link)

So there I was. All alone on a street, on Halloween after having a weird voice on a phone say something ominous to me. Could this night get any stranger or creepy?

I gave a quick shake of my head to pull myself out of my thoughts. What was I freaking out about? I was dressed in a costume, in a gated community with well lit streets. What was there to worry about?

A cool breeze played around my legs reminding myself that my costume was now torn, exposing my legs almost to the point of being obscene and with all the climbing I had done earlier that night a few buttons on my blouse had popped off revealing more cleavage than I was comfortable with. My refined and regale Blood Countess costume had been reduced to looking more like a vampire Hooters waitress costume.
Still I was on a well lit street...

The street lamp above me suddenly went out plunging the immediate area I was standing in into gloom.

Okay... I was still in a gated community. What could go wrong in such a place? My mind decided to point out that other than a dimensional rift opening to a hellish world where the dead were processed to be used as slaves? What indeed?

Taking a deep breath I quickly ran/walked fast to the next street lamp... Which promptly went out.

"OH COME ON!" I shouted at the sky. "Why pick on me?"
I froze as a deep rasping voice that seemed to come from everywhere in the darkness drawled out. "Why not?"

I swallowed nervously and peered into the darkness as I started to hyperventilate a little.

"Get a grip on yourself Susan." I muttered out loud to myself. "We've been in worse situations. Just go to 13's like you planned and check up on him. His house is closer than yours is anyway."

After my brief prep talk to myself I moved to the next street light..Which of course promptly went out. Throwing all decorum and caution to the wind... I ran like Hell towards 13's house as a deep blood chilling laugh echoed in the darkness behind me.

Running I couldn't help but notice that every streetlight I reached promptly went out. While high in the 'scare the living daylights out of someone' scale it could also be a good thing. As 'perfect' a community as Serenity Hills prided themselves on being someone was bound to notice the string of non working lights and even on a holiday night come out to see what was wrong with them.

Reaching a curve of the road that lead to the section where Miki, Victor, Imp 13 and myself called home I glanced back and groaned. The lights weren't put completely out of commission as I could see three lights down they were coming back on. This could only mean one thing. A spell of gloom had been cast and I was the subject of the spell. Oh joy, that meant anywhere I went lights would probably go out as I neared them only to come back on as I move away.

"Wait! that means someone used magic on me and surely someone in this nexus will notice that! Maybe even Silence!"
My enthusiasm died almost instantly however as I remembered Silence once mentioning she couldn't detect anything inside Serenity Hills. One of the reasons she didn't fully trust the place.

Reaching Imp 13's place I ran past the bizarrely shaped shrubbery in his front yard. They had been sculpted by 13 to be erotic in nature but the ruling body of Serenity Hills, not to mention Weirdbard, found them in questionable taste so they had 13 redo them. Now they were more abstract and geometric in nature but in the gloom of the night they appeared alien and creepy.
Reaching 13's front door I noticed the lights weren't on.

"Oh doh. I'm under that spell, of course the lights wouldn't be on even if he was home." I muttered out loud.

Banging on the door I could hear nothing moving inside but finally noticed a piece of paper pinned to his door. Pulling it off, I went back into the yard to try and read it by what little light was making it through the spell around me and could barely make out the words printed on it.

"Gone to the Playboy Mansion for their Halloween party. Be back in maybe a few weeks... I hope. Signed 13."

"Well crap. What do I do now?" I breathed out.

"You can die." That weird voice in the wind seemed to whisper through the shrubbery surrounding me.

With a loud eep, I started running once again. I knew there was no one home at Miki's or Victor's so that just left my own house to reach.
There was only... I mentally paused even as I kept running. Only about four more hours to wait out before my imp powers came back at midnight and I could even attempt to defend myself.

"Oh..double crap." I muttered as I sprinted for my house.

Reaching my house I almost panicked for a moment as I couldn't find my key. Somehow the thought I had lost it and was stuck on my front porch...In the darkness terrified almost more than anything else this evening. I mean how pathetic would it be to be killed right outside your own door?

On second thought, I really didn't want to find that out.

Finally I found the key right where I had put it. Inside my cleavage. Opening the door, I ducked inside and locked the door behind me. I was SAFE.

That was until I looked through the opening between my living room and the rest of the house and saw my back door was standing open.

"Oh...Triple crap." I muttered to myself.

I ran for the back door as if my very life depended on it and reaching it a slammed it shut and locked it, wishing now that I had put two or maybe a hundred extra dead bolts on it.

I started to breathe a sigh of relief before realizing that if the door was standing open, there was no telling how long it had been that way and more than likely I had just locked myself inside with whoever it was had opened the door in the first place. My instinct was to open the door and run back outside but realized that was kind of dumb as well.

Finally I got my head working right and slowly crept through my own dark house listening as hard as I could to see if I could hear any noises such as breathing or movement.
Not hearing anything I made it to my bedroom and after searching it, and yes I even looked under my bed, and finding nothing I quickly locked the door, changed out of my costume into something a little more decent and found my cell phone.

I tried calling Bardy but even though I had gotten through to him earlier on Hilary's phone I couldn't reach him now.
Suddenly I heard a scratching noise coming from my bedroom window. Looking over I spotted two red eyes looking at me from the darkness.

"Oh...I forgot what number of craps I'm up to. So..oh shit." I nearly cried in fear.

I could feel my insides turn to jelly and I just wanted to cry for someone to come protect me....that is until something inside me snapped.

I was a demonic creature. Sure, I was reformed and not evil per sey and I could never bring myself to hurt anyone but still! I was the stuff of nightmares. I was what churches told their followers to be aware of. And I was cowering from red eyes outside my window and voices on a child's cell phone and on the wind?

"Screw this!" I said out loud.
Picking up a table lamp from my bedside I could barely see due to the gloom spell on me I threw it at the window shattering it.

I could hear a voice yelp as the window exploded outward and a dull thump as something landed on the ground outside.

The lights suddenly flickered on inside my house showing the spell on me was broken. Probably by the loss of concentration of whatever it was that had been outside of my window when I threw my lamp at it and it fell.
Racing down the stairs I made it to my backdoor and opened it and rushed out into my backyard to find...

Imp 13 in his human form lying on the ground in a human 13 shaped crater. In his hand was a cheap Halloween gimmick that shined two small red lights... As if two red eyes.

"Um, hi sis?" 13 replied as he stared up at me. "It would seem that the Playboy mansion has blacklisted me and I can't get in any more, so I thought what can I do with this holiday? And I of course thought of you?"

I made no reply but just stood over him, looking down.

"Can I have a five minute headstart?" He asked.

"Since you are my brother.... NO." I replied doubling up my fist.

13 let out a squeak and instantly was on his feet running like Hell.

I watched him as he fled my yard but I didn't give chase.

"I so need to rant to someone about this."

Pulling out my cell phone I dialed operator assistance for Serenity Hills.

"Yes, can I have the number for the Kingston family residence here in Serenity Hills?"

The operator a perfectly pleasant voiced woman quickly gave me the number and then offered to connect me directly rather than having me have to dial it myself.
Even though I was grateful, I rolled my eyes on how utterly eager and helpful everyone was in Serenity Hills.

I listened for a moment and waited for the phone to stop ringing and just hoped that Miki was still over there.

"Hi Hilary?" I said recognizing her voice. After all it had only been about a half hour since I last saw her.

"Its me Susan. I was just wondering if Miki and Victor are still over at your house. I just had a really nasty Halloween prank pulled on me by my brother and I was hoping they could help me plot reven... Er, I mean console me on what a bast... Um, I mean how rotten my brother was to me tonight."

Hilary hopped onto the couch with a grin. Yay! Susan! "Superdork left, he so couldn't take the heat, and Miki's checking my candy to make sure it's safe." She pulled the phone away and looked over at Miki. "Can Susan come over?"

Miki nodded. "Of course she can."

Hilary cheered and spoke again to Susan. "Miki says you can come over. We can talk about how boys are stupid and maybe we can egg their houses!"

"We're not egging houses." Miki said.

"We might." Hilary whispered into the phone."

I don't know why but I looked around to see if anyone was watching me before I whispered into the phone.

"I think I know where we can find a few ostrich eggs. You wouldn't believe the mess they can make."

Back in a normal voice I said. "I'll be right over."

I knew the address from the super helpful operator. Who needed things like Google or mapquest when you had the nearly perfect phone operators of Serenity Hills?

"Goodbye for now Hilary."

"Bye, Susan!" Hilary said before hanging up. Once the phone was in its cradle, she joined Miki on the floor as the older woman sorted the candy. "Susan's coming over."

"Good. I'll feel better with us all here." Miki said. Plus it might give her the chance to ask Susan for more info on what she was scared of tonight. She handed Hilary a Snickers bar. "Here. This one is safe."

Hilary beamed. Sugar! "YES! CANDY! MINE!"

Miki blinked at the girl tore into the wrapper. Maybe the candy wasn't a good idea after all.

Without Imp 13's cheap theatrics scaring the daylights out of me, I found Hilary's house quickly enough.

I made a mental note to find out where 13 managed to obtain a gloom spell to use on me and maybe see later if Silence would cook up something equally mean and nasty to stick on 13 for tonight's trick.

Knocking on the door I was met by a extremely hyperactive and excited Hilary.

"Did you bring them?" Hilary nearly squealed.

I looked over her head into the house but didn't spot Miki at the moment.
Holding out a bag I had brought with me I showed Hilary two perfect, fresh...Ostrich eggs.

"It is incredible how the local community grocery store always has just what you are looking for. Now you better hide these before Miki finds... Oh hi Miki!" I said as I saw her come up behind the little girl.
