Okay, folks, this is my second Halloween one-shot. This will be based in the Sonic universe and it will feature Silver and Amy. I also plan on doing one for Thanksgiving featuring Tails and Cream, and a Christmas one featuring my two favorites Sonic and Blaze.

'Thinking'

Silver's First Halloween

It was Halloween on Mobius, and that meant that everyone was dressed in a silly costume, from the cute costumes for kids and Chao like Tails, Cream, and Cheese, to the very scary for grownups like Vector the Crocodile. The only ones not having any fun right now were Silver (because he has never celebrated Halloween before and is right now confused about it) and Shadow (no surprise there). Silver was having a little trouble getting his costume together. "Dammit! Why do we have to wear these silly things again? I can't even get mine on right!" He heard four different people laughing so he turned around and saw Sonic, Rouge, and Tails laughing at Knuckles' costume.

Knuckles was wearing what looked like a pimp's suit in pink. He even had a cane to go with it. Right now his muzzle was as red as his fur due to embarrassment. "I'm glad you guys are enjoying yourselves. Laugh all you want, but when I win the costume contest this year, I'll have the last laugh," the red echidna stated. Silver looked to see that Amy was the only one not laughing at Knuckles, but at him. He went as red as Knuckles when she did.

"Do you mind telling me what's so funny, Amy? Besides Knuckles' outfit?" he asked. They looked back over to the others and saw that Tails was rolling on the ground and Rouge tangled up with Sonic. Amy, of course, got jealous of the fact that, even though they were picking on Knuckles, they were holding each other and trying to keep one another on their feet. She knew that Rouge was slowly falling for Sonic, but she didn't know that he fell for Blaze, who was in the Sol Dimension guarding her Emeralds.

'I'm going to smash Rouge to pieces for touching MY Sonic,' she thought before turning around to Silver again. "To answer your question, Silver, what's funny is you. You're getting tangled up in the wrapping." Silver read about the ancient times, so he decided to go as a mummy. The only problem was that he kept getting tangled and tripped up in the wrapping he was using. He tried it again, only to get an amused reaction from his pink friend.

"Oh, ha-ha very funny," he replied sarcastically. Amy helped him untangle himself, and then rewrapped him right. While this was going on, Silver was blushing because of his love for the pink hedgehog. He knew she was single because of her obsession with Sonic, who was not interested in her. For this, Silver thanked the high heavens because that would mean he could take her for his own. Once Amy got finished wrapping the white hedgehog up, he tested it to see if it would stay on him while he moved around. "That's more like it. Thanks, Amy," he said after seeing that it stayed on.

Amy had a small blush on her face because of the praise her friend gave her. "It's no problem, Silver. Now I have to get mine on so I can take you around. I can't wait to show you the Halloween decorations on the other houses. And to top that off, Rouge over there is having a party at Club Rouge. How does that sound?" she asked.

"That sounds great." Rouge overheard them talking, so she approached them.

"Since you're bringing Silver, do you mind if I bring Sonic with me, Amy?" she asked slyly. Amy didn't appreciate it one bit.

"I guess I don't have much of a choice, now do I? Okay, but if you even think about bringing him to bed with you, I'll kill you! Also, if you let anything happen to Sonic, such as Shadow hurting him, I'm holding you responsible! Do you understand, Rouge?"

"Uh, Amy, I think Sonic can take care of himself, especially when it comes to Shadow and Rouge," said Silver.

"He's right, Amy. And besides, I'm still working slowly. The way I see it, Sonic and I are still friends. Also, I'm not the one you need to worry about. Blaze the Cat has his heart," she said begrudgingly, angering Amy even further. Amy knew that it was futile, though; Blaze was much faster than she was, and she could burn her ass to a crisp.

'Oh, this is just great! Rouge I can take on. I've got nothing on Blaze, though,' the pink hedgehog thought. Her only hope was that Blaze didn't hold any interest in Sonic whatsoever. She already hated the fact that both speedsters could keep up with each other. "C'mon, Silver. We need to get to trick-or-treating. Let me put on my costume and I'll be ready."

"Okay, Amy. Take as much time as you need." Amy nodded and went to her room to change clothes. Rouge noticed the way Silver looked at the young girl and smirked.

"I know somebody who has a crush," she said teasingly, causing Silver to blush madly.

"I do not!"

"I never said it was you." He knew right there he was in a corner. Little did Rouge know, Silver also knew about her developed crush on Sonic.

"Okay, you got me. But I also know about you being interested in a certain blue speed demon," he said while smirking. Rouge went wide-eyed and red-faced when he said that.

"Now listen her, you little runt! Sonic and I are just friends. Besides, I have to worry about that kitty cat you see as a sister. If those two speedsters hook up, you'll have a brother-in-law of sorts."

"Now that is something I won't mind."

"Back to the topic at hand, kid: If you want Amy to be with you, try asking her out on a date a few times. At least she can keep up with you unless you use that power of yours." Once they got finished talking, Amy came back into the room dressed in a princess costume. Silver thought she looked good in it.

"Are you ready, Silver?" he nodded, not trusting his voice. "Okay, then let's get going." They made their way down the street where Silver found himself a little nervous on account of the decorations on each house. The first house they came up to was Vanilla's. Amy rang the doorbell and, lucky for her companion, it was a normal one. Little did the two hedgehogs know, someone was plotting a little joke to pull on trick-or-treaters. Silver and Amy felt a tap on their shoulders, so they turned around and…

"RRROOOOAAAAARRRRR!" Silver and Amy clung onto each other for dear life as they got scared by a monster. Another tap on the shoulder revealed a little ghost.

"Boo!" it squeaked. The hedgehogs scurried back to the nearest tree. The monster and the ghost were sharing a laugh and that's when Amy figured out who the monster was. The ghost pulled the sheet off of itself to reveal Cream.

Amy let out a sigh of relief, knowing it was just a couple of their friends. "It's okay, Silver. It's only Cream and Vector." Silver took a look at the two and saw that it was definitely them.

"How do you like my costume? I call it 'Franken-Croc'," Vector said. Silver and Amy looked at him and saw that he had a stitching pattern all over his body. He also had on his neck two fake bolts like on Frankenstein's monster.

"That's real funny, Vector, but why did you choose to scare me and Amy," asked Silver.

"Well every time one of these holidays comes up, such as Halloween and Valentine's Day, Cream here always gets bullied. I figured I ought to teach her how to get back at them. The only holiday they don't pick on her around at school is Thanksgiving and that's primarily because that's when Tails is at his best," the croc explained.

"He has a point, Silver. I've known Tails for a while now and I've seen what he does to bullies, especially when it comes to Cream. Sonic and Knuckles are still proud of him to this day."

"What does he do?"

"He TP's their house. On Thanksgiving, though, if someone made the mistake of making Cream cry, then by that time, Tails will have come up with a deadly machine. One time, we had to move our house because he blew up our yard. Of course this was because Charmy was dumb enough to pester the little girl," Vector said. "By the way, what's Tails up to now?"

"The last time we saw, he, Sonic, and Rouge were laughing a Knuckles' costume," answered Amy. All of them knew that every year, due to being on Floating Island too long, Knuckles always came out with something ridiculous. Sometimes it's funny, but other times it just annoyed the hell out of them to the point where they would want Eggman to attack.

"Why am I not surprised?" the croc asked sarcastically.

"I know my mama taught me good manners, but I can't wait to see how much toilet paper Tails used this time. He and I are supposed to be ghosts this year while Mr. Vector takes us trick-or-treating," said Cream.

"Well you two would certainly make the cutest ghosts. C'mon, Silver, we have to go check out the other houses before we go to Club Rouge," Amy said. She grabbed Silver's hand and drug him along.

"Don't those two make the cutest pair?" Cream asked.

"Uh, yeah, they do," Vector said in response, but had one thought on his mind: 'At least this will give Sonic a chance to ask that Blaze person out.'

Silver and Amy went through the whole neighborhood looking at houses, including the one belonging to the kid who bullied Cream. They knew it was his because Tails TP'ed it earlier. They heard the kid and his parents go raging mad, knowing it was the twin-tailed fox that did it. "I got an idea, Amy. I'll have to thank Tails for this one," said Silver. He used his psychokinesis to grab all of the toilet paper and turn it into several mummified versions of him. The copies, along with the real Silver, zoned in on the family.

Amy saw what her friend was doing. She got out her iPod and played some eerie Halloween music. This freaked the family out even more as the "mummies" came in. They got so freaked out that they rushed back into the house. Once that was done, Silver flung the toilet paper back to where it was. After reuniting with Amy, they began to bust out laughing. "Now I…know why…they call it…'Trick-or-Treat'!" Silver exclaimed between breaths.

After that ordeal, they made their way to Club Rouge, where, like earlier, Knuckles was being made fun of for his pink pimp's suit. Amy would look around for Sonic, but since she knew Silver was still naïve about this time of year, she knew she would have to stick with him. They saw Tails and Cream dressed in their little ghost costumes; Rouge dressed up as a witch; Espio as an actual ninja; and Charmy as Bat-bee, a mix between Batman and a bee.

They looked around for Sonic, only to find him on the turntables dressed as a certain mad scientist. The others knew he only did this to mock Eggman. Rouge saw the pair and, having heard about the 'mummy' prank, gave the 'Best Prank' award to Silver, Amy, and Tails. She also gave the 'Best Kid Costume' award to Tails and Cream because everyone agreed that ghosts were definitely better than Bat-Bee and Tails and Cream were definitely the cutest there.

"Oh, look at that. The 'knucklehead' did get an award!" Rouge exclaimed. Knuckles got excited and felt like bragging until he saw what it was. It turned out to be the one he got every year: the 'Most Ridiculous Costume' award. "Shadow also got an award, but once again, it's the 'Didn't even bother to try' award."

Shadow swiped the award from her hand and scoffed. "I still think this day is pointless, but that prank that Silver and Amy pulled was pretty funny."

"Well at least you have a sense of humor, Shadow," Amy said.

"The award for the 'Scariest Costume' goes to Vector as 'Franken-Croc'," Rouge said, giving the award to Vector, who got excited and did his roar. That alone earned him applause. "And now, the 'Best Costume' award goes to…our very own DJ, Sonic the Hedgehog!" This wasn't even Rouge messing with the votes; everyone knows that Sonic making fun of their arch-nemesis was the best thing ever.

After a while, everyone went home, Espio going with Charmy, Vector going with Cream, Sonic with Tails, Shadow and Knuckles on their own, and Amy with Silver. "Okay, so we didn't get the 'Best Costume' award, but we still got an award, right?" Amy asked.

"Uh-huh, and I finally figured out what the big deal is with Halloween. With days like it, there is no need to worry about anything bad actually happening, just as long as you have fun," Silver said. Amy nodded in agreement.

"Hey, Silver. I've been meaning to tell you something."

"Huh, what is it, Amy?"

"I originally took you out today to show you a good time, but you did just that for me. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I would like it if you were around more often. Maybe we should hang out as often as we can. What do you say?"

"Of course, Amy! Also, I would…like to…uh…tell you something."

"What is it?"

"Well…I really…like you a lot. Maybe we could go on a date sometime."

"I…would really like that, Silver. Thank you," said Amy. They spent the rest of their walk home holding hands.

THE END

That is my second Halloween one-shot. I'll think of a new 'Black Crescent' story, a new chapter to 'Symbios-Issues' and a new chapter to 'Chaos Control to PacWorld' while I'm thinking of a Halloween one-shot for Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal.

I certainly hope you enjoyed this one.
