Raven and her brother are out in the woods for a photoshoot. Curiously, Raven peers behind the bush. What she see's is the Holiday doors. Taking a plunge, she enters the Halloween door. While a vampire lurks wanted in Halloweentown has took interest in Raven Dawn.
I only own Seth, Raven, Victoria,
Raven sighed as the alarm clock blared the hard rocking sound of Three Day's Grace's Riot. The 17 year old girl's black polished hand slammed the off button with a little more force than necessary, a side effect of her drowsy-ness.
Raven's black hair was pulled out of it's braid as the pre-graduate got up. Raven walked over to the vanity at the other side of the room. Her hair swung with her hips. She took the blue brush and silently brushed her hair. After she was sure that her hair was smooth and clean, she walked over to her closet, singing along to Riot that was now playing on the radio.
Gathering her clothes and toothbrush she headed to the bathroom connected to the large purple bedroom. After the intense battle against plaque and last nights strawberry shortcake, Raven changed into her hiking clothes.
As she tightened her light black sport shorts with the strings, she pulled her black fitted tee over her head. Raven took a blue hair band and put her shoulder length hair in a tight ponytail.
Raven walked out of her bathroom with light steps, walking towards her bed. As she was setting the sheets, the song ended and the radio announcer began to talk. His deep voice made Raven shudder at this man's jolliness. He sounded like Santa Clause.
"That was 'Riot' by Three Day's Grace! Now on to today's weather! Today it will slightly cloudy, with a small chance of a downpour. Unusual weather for this time of year, ay, Bob?"
"That's right To-"
Raven smiled triumphantly as her hand smashed the mute button. Happy that the annoying men were finally silenced, Raven grabbed her backpack that she had packed yesterday night for today's hiking trip with her elder brother, Seth. She had packed their costumes and a snack for the trip. Her 22 year old brother had come home for the weekend.
Today was October 30, and Raven was excited as ever for Halloween Day. That day, they would go to school in their costumes and basically had a party all day. Then there was the part that Raven could wait for. The School Halloween Ball. She wasn't in to the whole date thing. But, she had promised her friend that she would go with her. Something about her needing to get out more.
Ray grabbed her hightops and put them on as she wondered where her brother was taking her. Seth said he found a new trail, and that they should check it out. Filled with excitement, Raven smiled slightly. Every year on her birthday, Raven and her brother would go hiking in the forest just a couple yards away from her family's large estate.
Shaking her pale head of her thoughts, she headed to her brother's room in a happy mood.
Seth sighed as he got up from bed. He woke stubbornly to his sister's alarm clock. He stepped out of bed and stomped to his bathroom in the two story house. He tried not to slam the door as he brushed his teeth and changed into a dark pair of jeans and gray T-shirt. He combed his dark black hair as he spit out the mouthwash. He yawned tiredly. He walked out of his bathroom more awake and refreshed.
Seth walked over to his desk,turned on his laptop and headed toward his backpack. He grabbed a water bottle, some granola bars, and his sister's birthday card and stuffed them into his pack.
Seth walked towards his bed. Getting on his hands and knees, Seth searched for his hightops. Reaching his hands out under the mess of crap, after about ten minutes his hands pulled out the black and white shoes, dust covering them.
As Seth wiped off the dust, he heard someone knock on his door.
"Just a minute!"
Seth's deep, pleasant, voice echoed in his room. His laptop beeped.
'An email?'
Seth thought surprisingly. He walked over to his laptop, his hightops now on his feet. It was from his friend, Victoria.
Victoria was a lot like Raven. He cared for Victoria deeply. He was very protective of her, and she became like a sister to Raven. It was almost funny. They both got along so well. Something unique about Victoria was that she was psychic. Weekly, Victoria would email a horoscope to all her friends.
'Dearest Seth,
Your hike will lead you to a surprising discovery.
P.S.
Seth, bring a towel. You're going to spill your water bottle. I don't have to be psychic to know you're a clumsy oaf.
With the most of Love,
Victoria Rain Tawn'
Seth chuckled at his friend's warning. Taking heed, he packed a towel, and answered the door.
Raven smiled as her brother answered the white wooden door.
"Ya know Seth, you could answer the door then check your email."
Raven said with a cute pout on her pale face.
Seth smirked.
"Yeah, I could. But what's the fun in that? Besides, your just impatient."
Raven frowned.
"I'm not impatient!"
Raven retorted.
"So, does that mean every one else is just really slow?"
Seth asked mockingly.
Raven smiled.
"Yes! You just happen to be one of the slowest!"
Raven's voice was sweet and shy, and reminded Seth oddly of skittles.
"So sis, are you ready?"
Seth asked kindly. His bright blue eyes smiled, as if he knew what she was going to say.
"Of course! Why would I be standing here if I wasn't?"
Raven's emerald eye's smiled, her mouth following suit.
"Well come on then!"
Seth headed to the long staircase, leaving Raven in his dust.
