"BOO!" Caitlin screams in front of my face, dragging me from my sleep. Reflexively I scream and slap her face. "Ow! Jack! What was that for?"
"Its your fault you scared the hell out of me."
"Well you don't have to slap me!"
"Reflexes woman, I'm a ninja."
"Right.. Well then maybe you should be a ninja today, it is Halloween after all."
Ah, Halloween my most loved and most hated holiday of all. Nothing is better than dressing up as some random creature-thing and running around scaring the crap out of people, but then there is the fact that practically every light in the city I live in is off to 'set the mood' and not that way. I'm sure some of you are thinking 'its just lights, what's the big deal about that?' well it's a SUPER BIG DEAL, I'm terrified of the dark.
I know, how could an awesome chick like me be afraid of the dark? Well its possible people. Ah, and I suppose your wondering why Caitlin called me 'Jack' well, my real name is Jackie but my friends and some other peoples call me Jack as a joke, I don't mind it and I'm use to it. "Jack. Earth to Jack" Caitlin's voice pulls me back to reality and I blink multiple times and look at her, "sorry, day dream."
"You've dreamed enough during your sleep."
"You can never dream enough."
"Uh huh, anyway what are you going to be for Halloween?"
"Come back in an hour and you shall see the amazing Jackie transformation." I say with the voice like a magician's.
"That's beautiful Jackie, I need to go get changed anyway." She walks out of my room and into hers, the room next door to mine. I have no parents living with me, at 16 I left and went to an apartment and am now living with my roommate Caitlin, she is 18 and I am currently 17. I lazily climb out of my bed and walk over to my closet and grab a black dress that is so ripped up it looked like Freddy Kruger visited me in my sleep when I wore it.
I even painted red on it to look like blood, I have to say, I did pretty well on destroying my dress for Halloween. I grab three different zippers that are all the same light tan color as my body. Then I walk into my bathroom and take off my pajamas and slip on my dress and glue the zippers onto my hands and on my face, the zippers half zipped so it looks like my skin is unzipped. After the glue dries I use my make up and put red eye shadow all over the areas that look like I unzipped my skin.
After an hour of putting make up on my hands and face and on the areas of my body where my dress is ripped up I finally finish my gruesome unzippy person costume. I walk out of my room and into the living room to see Caitlin sitting on the couch, chains all over her body and making them look like they are stabbing into her body. "Jeez Cait, its not like your going to meet Pinhead or something." She glares at me and shakes her head slightly, mocking my voice and saying what I just said and I laugh at her, "sorry to burst your bubble."
"You are a bubble burster. Its all you ever do"
"Uh huh, sure I do. Come on, get your phanny up off my couch and lets go scare the crap out of people." She grins and gets off the couch and walks out of the apartment with me following behind her.
~Time laps of an hour of scaring the heebe jeebes out of people~
"That was aamaazzinng" Caitlin says after the hour passed. I laugh, "you bet your ass it was."
"But I don't want to lose my ass…"
"You don't have to worry because it was amazing."
"Oh yeah, that's true." She laughs and I roll my eyes at her stupidity, "I still can't believe your older than me." She smirks and we continue walking back to our apartment, passing through a forest to get back to the city, a dark forest. I nervously gaze around, staying close to Caitlin then all of a sudden I hear a twig crack not to far away from me and I scream, Caitlin looks over and sees a deer and she laughs, "your so pathetic Jackie."
"Shut up." I frown at her and she smirks again then a tree falls down directly in front of us and this time we both scream. Then a tall man, about eight feet in height climbs up on top of the fallen tree and looks at us, his long black dreadlocks gathered neatly together in clumps with some golden rings around them. I couldn't get much of his skin tone because of the darkness of the forest and the only light we had was the full moon, but his skin looked dark green with tints of different colors. He wasn't clothed much but what he did have on was an ancient looking plate armor that stopped at the bottom of his rib cage with armored shoulder pads.
The rest of his torso was covered in a net looking thing and his hips and crotch was covered with a loin cloth covering his crotch and two armored pads on the outer sides of his legs. His shins were also guarded by this ancient armor. On his wrists where what looked like wrist guards that started at his wrist and stopped at his elbow. His face was covered by a strange looking mask. Caitlin slowly leans toward me, "are you seeing what I'm seeing?" her voice was hushed but sounded surprised, and I was surprised by his appearance as well.
"Yes, I am seeing it, and that is a friking sexy costume!" I whisper back to her. Somehow the 'man' must of heard me because he cocked his head to the side after I finished and I very slightly smile. Suddenly the 'man' dashes over to us and grabs both of us and runs away with us. All I remember is hearing screaming from Caitlin and me then blackness.
Thanks for reading, please review on how it is and I'll continue writing! :D
