Howdy everyone welcome to my first ever mini-series story. It's something I've been wanting to write for a while now since Halloween was coming up. I thought to myself why not write a story for Halloween. It will have our heroes Ichiro, Ahsoka, and the others celebrate Halloween. This will be a short story, but will have long chapters so I hope everyone likes the story. This story will take place after the Undead empire story written by General Herbison so I hope everyone likes how the story will go. Also sorry if the summary wasn't good either.
Also I want to thank General Herbison for helping me with the story. I'm glad he has been able to help me with this especially since I've had so much projects, essays, and exams to go through for college. Glad he has been able to help me with this story, thank you my friend. Now it's time to begin with the story, I don't own anything of Star wars or the DC universe just my oc characters minus General Herbison's characters Markala and Katalina. Here we go chapter one enjoy everyone.
What is Halloween?
Titan's tower (Normal pov)
Ahsoka Tano was in the common room meditating as she concentrated in removing all the pieces that made up her lightsaber by using the Force. She had finished with her shoto lightsaber which was easy for her to do. Now she was working on her other lightsaber. Ahsoka was alone in the common room as the others left to go to the mall. Ahsoka didn't because they left before she woke up, which by now she has gotten used to, sleeping in late.
Ahsoka however wasn't alone in the tower she knew Markala was in the training room wanting to get stronger, while Katalina was reading up on some of the many books she bought from Rachel's book store.
It was around 12 in the afternoon and Ahsoka was close on finishing putting her lightsaber back together when she heard the doors slide open and heard Rowan yelling. "WE'RE HOME AHSOKA!" Ahsoka lost her concentration and her lightsaber fell into pieces. Ahsoka looked over and saw Rowan carrying two brown bags and Rowan saw what happened, "Whoops sorry Ahsoka I didn't know you were meditating."
"I was," Ahsoka got up and stretched out her arms. She used the Force to get all the pieces of her lightsaber and placed them on the counter as she saw the others bring in more bags and what appeared to be decorations, "Guys what's going on? We're going to have a party or something?"
"Oh it's going to be something all right, we're going to be celebrating Halloween," Rowan said as she took out a big sack, "And I'm going to get lots and lots of candy."
"No way Rowan this year I'm going to beat you and get more candy than you," Mikazuki took out a bigger sack from her bag.
"Oh yeah?" Victor ran out of the room and came back with a huge sack. "The candy will be all mine y'all."
"You guys realize that candy will rot your teeth and after what happened last year you guys had to go to the dentist so many times," Arella said as she reminded the others about what happened last year and how the dentist had to fix their teeth after they rotted them out with all the candy they ate.
"Um guys what's Halloween?" as soon as Ahsoka asked what Halloween was everyone looked at her and had a 'are you serious' look on their faces. "What?"
"You don't know what Halloween is?" Mikazuki was surprised.
"No I don't, what is it?"
"Oh wait that's right I didn't tell you did I?" Ichiro realized "Sorry um Halloween Ahsoka is a holiday we have here on earth where we dress up and go out to get some candy."
"That's not true Halloween is-"
"No one cares Arella it's all about the costumes, candy, pranking, and our favourite time of the year Victor," Mikazuki turned to her brother and he nodded knowing what they love to do every Halloween. "We watch a marathon of horror movies!" both siblings said in unison.
"What do you mean dress up, candy, and horror movies?" Ahsoka was still confused by what the others were saying. She knows earth has many different kinds of holidays, but one where you dress up and get candy was something she didn't know about.
"Yeah you can dress up as anything or anyone, like maybe you can dress up as a monster, a beautiful princess, or maybe even a celebrity," Rowan suggested as she had different images of Ahsoka dressed as a monster, a princess, or a celebrity.
"Then you go out and go to a neighborhood where you go door to door, and then you say 'Trick or treat'. After you say that they give you candy and you continue doing this throughout the night," Arella explained.
"The pranking is something teenagers do they go to house to house pulling pranks, they scare people, or even go scare some kids to take their candy," Mikazuki explained as she saw everyone looking at her by what she said in her last comments. "Oh relax I never did that, unless you count Vic as one of them."
"You didn't scare me, you dressed up as the wrestler Sting and hit me in the gut with the baseball bat before taking my candy," Victor said remembering what his sister did.
"Not my fault you got beat up by a girl, besides I told you I was going to do it, you just didn't believe me. Anyways I'm off to get ready for Halloween tomorrow see ya," Mikazuki grabbed her bags and walked out of the room.
"Sooooo let me get this straight you can dress up as anyone or anything right?" Ahsoka asked thinking of many different things she could wear tomorrow for Halloween.
"Yeah, but maybe go as something scary it is Halloween after all," Victor said.
Ahsoka thought about it and came up with something to wear. She knows it's probably something she shouldn't wear, but since they said one can dress up as anything or anyone she didn't see why not, especially if it's scary.
"Sure got any ideas on what you're going to wear?" Ichiro was curious on what his girlfriend was going to wear.
"Maybe, when is Halloween anyways?" Ahsoka asked wondering when Halloween would be so she can get ready.
"Tomorrow, but we're going to do some recon to make sure no bad guys cause any trouble for the citizens before Halloween, why?" Victor asked wondering what Ahsoka was going as.
"I may have something, but I need some help Arella could you help me with my outfit?" Ahsoka turned to Arella who nodded as she grabbed her bags and followed Ahsoka out of the room.
"Hey by the way did we tell Markala and Katalina about Halloween?" Victor asked wondering if the cat teens had something for the night.
"I told them two weeks ago, Katalina has her costume, but Markala said he wasn't going to dress up for Halloween, that was until I begged him for days till he caved," Rowan said smirking as she remembered how she got Markala to accept going out for Halloween.
"Wait is that why we saw you holding on to his leg and kept saying 'please'?" Ichiro asked remembering seeing his sister holding Markala's leg and kept hearing her say 'please' for five days.
"Pretty much yep," Rowan said smiling.
"Cool I guess we better get ready then, see you all tonight," Victor grabbed his bags and headed out the room to get dressed for tonight.
Training room
Markala had just finished training and was resting on the bench using his towel to dry his fur. Exhausted was a good word to describe him, he had been training for hours and had pushed his body beyond his limit. He knows Rowan and the others told him not to push himself too far and knew he shouldn't, but if he wanted to be strong enough to prove he would be the best warrior then he would not let anything stop him. Of course he would make sure the others didn't find out, if Rowan found out she would get mad at him. He didn't know why, but for weeks now he had been listening to what Rowan said to him and he feels bad when she gets upset.
"MARKALA!" Rowan entered the room and walked over towards Markala. "Hi are you done with…" Rowan covered her nose when she smelt something stinky. "Ewww Markala you need a bath, a really long bath."
"Ha Ha very funny Rowan, so what's up?" Markala asked as he got up and threw his towel into the towel bin.
"I came to ask you, what are you going to wear for Halloween?" Rowan was hoping Markala would come around and agree to go out for Halloween.
Markala sighed and knew Rowan was going to ask him that again. Markala found out about what Halloween was weeks ago and while his sister was interested he wasn't. He told the others he wasn't interested in going out for Halloween, which caused Rowan to ask him countless times asking him to come with them for Halloween. Eventually he did after five days of Rowan holding on to his leg and kept repeating 'please' over and over till he caved in. He gave in after his sister convinced him to go out for Halloween and have some fun. He didn't like it, but decided to try it out.
"I haven't exactly decided on what I should wear, but I promise you I will have one ready by tomorrow," Markala decided to stall. He did have a costume in mind, but wasn't sure if he should wear it or not.
"Oh okay well I hope you find one soon," Rowan leaned forward and kissed Markala on the cheek surprising the cat teen. "Bye," Rowan ran out of the room giggling leaving Markala still stunned by just what happened.
Markala sat back down on the bench with his hand on where Rowan kissed him. Markala sighed heavily thinking about what just happened. Why is it when she does that I feel relaxed?
The Next day
The next day was quiet and normal for the titans. They had last night taken care of any bad guys that would try to ruin Halloween for the people of Jump city and for the titans themselves. Ichiro was in the common room in his costume dressed as a samurai. Ichiro though didn't need to wear his costume since he was in his soul reaper form. Ichiro had shown Ahsoka his soul reaper form when he fought several hollows with Mikazuki a week after the whole Dakuripa fight ended.
In the common room Ichiro was with Mikazuki who was dressed as a vampire. She had the makeup to make her look pale, she had the fake fangs, contacts on her eyes, she wore a dark dress, and had her hair loose. Victor was also in the room wearing his old football uniform as he decided to go out as a football player. Victor and Mikazuki were in the kitchen getting their bags ready for all the candy they were hoping they would get. For Ichiro he didn't care if he got any candy, the only thing he wanted was to have Ahsoka have fun tonight. Before Ichiro thought he was going to take Ahsoka out till the girls told him they would take Katalina and Ahsoka out for Halloween. Meaning they were going to take them out for a girls night out. While the guys were going to have their own guys night out, or in as the twin siblings call it guys and gals night out Halloween style.
"Okay so here is how the day will go, we'll take Ahsoka and Katalina out this part of the city while you guys go to the other side of the city," Mikazuki showed her brother where the guys would go and where she will go with the girls.
"Hey how come you get to go there? That part of town has more candy than the other," Victor said mad that his sister picked the town where it had more candy.
"Because it's my turn to decide, besides the place you chose for us girls last year sucked," Mikazuki crossed her arms over her chest and glared at her brother as she remembered last year's disaster Halloween.
"I said I was sorry how was I supposed to know that place would lead to an abandoned meat factory?" Victor said defending himself for a mistake that happened last year.
"Did you even go see the place before deciding that's where we would be going?"
"I was busy,"
"With what?"
"Getting my costume ready,"
Ichiro getting annoyed by the siblings pointless argument took out some ear plugs and placed them on his ears. He walked over towards the sink and took out underneath the sink a small blackboard. Ichiro knew his sister placed it there in case of arguments. He grabbed the gloves with the sharp claws on them and carefully placed the claws on the blackboard and began to make a loud screeching noise on the blackboard. The two twin siblings covered their ears and yelled at Ichiro to stop. Ichiro couldn't hear them, but saw that they stopped fighting so he stopped making the noise.
"What the hell Ichiro why did you do that?" Mikazuki said as she yelled at her cousin.
"Because you two were arguing like children, who cares what happened last year? What's important is this year and remember Mika make sure Rowan doesn't eat too much candy otherwise it'll be hell on earth again," Ichiro said reminding his cousin to keep Rowan from eating too much candy.
Mikazuki rolled her eyes annoyed that her cousin reminded her of something she knows not to do, "I know you don't have to remind me, your mom called to remind me not to give her too much candy. Seriously though how is it that whenever Rowan eats too much candy she becomes an insane sugar rush demon?"
"Who knows I guess we'll never know, but just remember just let her have ten pieces of candy. Anything else above that and we're all doom," Ichiro said reminding his cousin on the limit of candies Rowan is allowed to eat.
"Yeah yeah I got it," Mikazuki said annoyed by what her cousin was telling her.
The doors slide open and in came the twins Rowan and Arella. "Happy Halloween everyone!" Rowan shouted as she entered the room dressed as a black cat while her sister was dressed in a black leotard with a blue cloak covering her body.
"Happy Halloween Rowan and awwww you're a kitty how cute," Mikazuki said who liked Rowan's costume.
"Thank you I worked on it all week," Rowan said as she showed off her costume. Rowan's costume was black, she also had on cat ears on her head, some whiskers, she made her gloves and shoes into paws, and she had a long black tail with some white on the tip.
"Well you did a great job Rowan I like it," Ichiro smiled.
"Thanks, but it's not as good as Arella's costume," Rowan turned to her sister who went to the kitchen to get something to drink.
"Awwww Arella is dressed up like her mom when she was a titan how cute," Mikazuki said as Arella blushed a bit embarrassed by what her friend said.
"It was either this or a princess costume Rowan got me, and I wasn't going to go out dressed as some dumb princess," Arella said who disliked the pink dress costume her sister got her to wear.
"Oh that's right you lost to Rowan in a bet so you had to wear what she picked for Halloween," Victor said as he laughed remembering the bet his cousins had on Rowan making lunch that wasn't disgusting or would make anyone throw up. Rowan managed to make something that wasn't bad looking and actually tasted good.
Arella however knew her sister couldn't have made the food, especially at the amount of time she had to make a big meal like the one the titans had, "I still think she cheated, there is now way you could have made all that food."
"Don't be a sore loser Arella besides you don't look that bad you look pretty cool, where did you get the outfit anyways?" Ichiro asked.
"Rowan and Katalina went to the mall to buy this leotard, as for the cloak I got that from mom. She said she wore this same cloak when dad and her first kissed," Arella said smiling when her mom told her about the cloak.
"Isn't that sweet and hey who knows maybe you'll get to kiss Ryu before the night ends," Mikazuki said causing her cousin to blush even redder.
Arella cursed her sister Rowan for telling her cousins that she liked Ryu. She did like him a lot, but didn't want to tell him until she knows he likes her back. The doors slide open again as Markala and Katalina entered the room wearing their own costumes.
"Wow you guys those are cool costumes," Ichiro said as the two cat teens showed their costumes.
Markala was wearing bronze armor with chainmail, silver helmet but had two holes on the top for his cat ears, white shorts, sandals, and gauntlets. On one hand he had a classic straight sword with a silver hilt and a round bronze shield with a lion's face on the front.
As for Katalina she was wearing what could be simply put as a Catwoman costume. Black leather trousers with slash marks revealing her slightly tanned skin underneath. A black leather bra with chains for straps, a pair of clawed gloves, which had the fingers removed for her real claws. A black mask covered her eyes but nothing more. She had dyed her long brown hair blonde for the evening. A hole was cut in the back of her trousers for her tail to be free, and on her hip was a long nasty looking whip.
Katalina walked over to Victor who was stunned by what his girlfriend was wearing. Katalina walked around Victor and leaned forward into his ears and whispered, "See anything you like Vic?" Victor began to stutter as he couldn't figure out the right words to say.
"Then perhaps" Katalina purred softly in his ear, "You wouldn't mind helping me with my boots." She held up a pair of knee high leather high heeled boots. After sitting carefully on a stool she teasingly pulled up one of her trouser legs and waited for Victor to slip the boot on.
"Katalina, leave Victor alone before you cause him to pass out like last time," Markala said as he walked over and placed his shield on the kitchen counter.
"Hey Markala do you like my costume?" Rowan asked as she approached Markala and she showed him her outfit.
"I like it, you look beautiful Rowan," Markala placed his hand behind Rowan's ear and began to scratch her just like she had done to him. Rowan began to make purring noises which caused everyone to smile and laugh.
"Seems like everyone is ready then," everyone looked over the door and saw Ryu entering the room dressed as the grim reaper. He had the white face paint skull on his face, a dark cloak and hood covering his face, and a scythe.
"Wow Ryu your costume looks amazing," Victor said surprised to see Ryu's outfit.
"Yeah so you're the grim reaper huh? Cool I bet we'll scare plenty of bad guys with your outfit," Ichiro said who also liked Ryu's costume.
"Thanks" Ryu looked over and saw Markala in his gladiator outfit. "Gladiator huh? Not a bad choice of costume Markala."
"Thanks Ryu, your costume isn't that bad either. Though I doubt you will scare anyone with that outfit," Markala said causing the room to be silent and Mikazuki slapping her forehead.
"Trust me Markala everyone fears death, no one fears the gladiators anymore. Only ones that do fear them are the old people who were there to see the fights," Ryu said causing everyone to back away knowing that there was still some tension between Markala and Ryu.
Markala was annoyed by what Ryu said and knew he wasn't going to let him win this argument, "Really? Well then let's make a little wager then. I bet I will scare more people than you before Halloween ends."
Ryu was intrigue by the proposition Markala made, but wanted to know what would be on the line first, "What does the winner get then?"
"The loser has to clean the whole tower," Markala challenged.
Ryu thought about it for a moment and decided to go for it. "Okay but let's make some rules. One we cannot scare civilians only criminals or people who are jerks, second no one can help you with the scaring, and three no harming the person you are scaring," He extended his hand and waited for Markala to shake it, "Deal?"
Markala shook Ryu's hand "Fine, but just to make sure neither one of us cheats Victor will keep an eye on you and Ichiro will keep an eye on me, got it?"
"That's fine with me. All right then are we ready to go?" Ryu asked.
"Wait we're missing Ahsoka where is she?" Ichiro asked as the doors opened and in came Ahsoka in her costume which surprised everyone.
Ahsoka was wearing a dark shirt that was above her stomach and had no sleeves which had the shirt reach up to her shoulders. She had one a dark skirt with dark leggings, dark gloves, boots, and had cloak. Ahsoka's skin was pale, her eyes were yellow, and she had on red lipstick. She approached Ichiro and smiled at him. "Like my costume Ichiro?"
"Ahsoka you look…wow you look amazing," Ichiro said surprised by Ahsoka's costume choice.
"Nice costume Ahsoka…let me guess you're a Goth?" Mikazuki asked.
"Um no I'm a Sith," Ahsoka answered
"Is that how you guys call your Goths?" Mikazuki asked causing everyone minus Ryu and Victor to groan.
Ahsoka rubbed her head annoyed by what her friend was saying, "A Sith is the opposite of a Jedi. We use our powers for good and they use their powers for evil."
"Oh…well I don't think it's scary anyways let's get going guys and gals the night is young and let's get going," Mikazuki said as the others nodded.
"All right remember don't let the people know who you are and stay in the group you are in okay?" Ryu told the others the rules. Once they nodded he continued, "Now then it's 5:30 we'll meet back home at ten and if there is trouble contact the others."
"Got it Ryu now let's go I want some candy," Victor said who wanted to go get his candy.
"All right let's go then," Ryu said as the others headed out the door.
Ahsoka stopped Ichiro before he could leave. "Hey Ichiro is Mika right? My costume isn't scary?"
"Well Ahsoka the others don't know about the Sith or even met one, but if they are scary where you are from then I'm sure they would have no reason to doubt that," Ichiro said know his cousins and friend have never actually met a Sith lord.
"Oh okay," Ahsoka said a bit disappointed since she wanted to look scary since she thought that was the point of Halloween to be scary and get candy.
Ichiro kissed Ahsoka on the cheek and smiled at her, "I think you're scary after all I saw ho scary you were evil back in your universe on Mortis."
Ahsoka smiled and was glad her boyfriend was trying to cheer her up. Ahsoka kissed Ichiro back on the lips and smiled, "Thanks Ichiro."
"You're welcome…um about your eyes," Ichiro said as he pointed to Ahsoka's yellow eyes.
Ahsoka realize what Ichiro was trying to say to her and laughed a bit, "Don't worry they're contacts Arella got me and it's make up that I'm wearing."
Ichiro sighed in relief that his girlfriend had an explanation for her eyes and hoped she would have a good Halloween, "Oh okay got it, take care and have fun tonight I'll see you later."
"You too and be careful," Ahsoka kissed Ichiro on the cheek before taking off to catch up to the girls and celebrate her first Halloween.
Chapter one is done, I hope everyone likes how it ended and the next one will be coming out soon. A few more days before Halloween people I hope everyone will be ready for it. I know I will be, going out for Halloween to go to a haunted maze…don't know if it's good since I never went to one, but if it scared my older sister then what the heck.
Please leave some reviews and also please don't leave anything negative on the story. I also want to thank General Herbison for assisting me with the story. Thanks my friend and goodbye for now everyone bye.
