Halloween Spectacular Chapter 1

It had been a long day at school and it seemed that even the Tipton was showing the Halloween spirit. Zack and Cody were excited about that Halloween. There was going to be a big costume party at the Tipton with plenty of candy corn and popcorn balls to go around. The whole hotel was invited and it was sure to be fun for everyone. Night fell quickly and Zack and Cody were off to bed. They would have never guessed what was going to happen to them the next night. As the sun rose, they remained asleep, and soon night fell again.

"Zack, Cody its time to get up," Carrie yelled back to them. They got up groggily and walked into the kitchen for breakfast. Cody looked outside and noticed that it was dark.

"What time is it?" he asked, confused.

"Its nine," she said, giving them both glasses.

"Its not dark at nine o clock in the morning," said Cody.

"The morning?" she asked. "You don't ever get up in the morning, you know what sun does to us."

"What is that supposed to mean?" Zack asked, still tired looking at his glass.

"You wouldn't want to burn your skin," she said.

"We don't stay out that long," Cody replied.

"I only takes a few minutes," she said. "We have talked about this. You guys have done well here at night and you have plenty of friends who don't mind what you are."

"What?" Cody asked, confused.

"Mom is this blood?" Zack asked out of nowhere, looking at the glass of red liquid. Cody just looked at him.

"Of course it is," she said, laughing. "Have you two forgotten that your vampires?" She said walking into the bathroom.

"Apparently," said Cody, looking at his own glass.

"I'm so confused," said Zack.

"When aren't you?" said Cody.

"Very funny, but vampires don't exist so how can we be. . . " Zack started.

"Of course were not." said Cody. "This is just a Halloween prank."

"If you say so," said Zack, drinking the whole glass.

"Is it blood?" Cody asked, jokingly.

"Yeah, not bad," said Zack, wiping his mouth of on the sleeve of his shirt.

"It is not," said Cody, taking a sip of his glass and then spitting it right back out. "Oh my god, it is."

"Yeah, well," said Zack, getting up and heading back to their room.

"Isn't this freaking you out at all?" Cody asked, following his brother.

"Its too early, I need to wake up a bit more before stuff freaks me out," said Zack, getting dressed.

"Well I wish you would wake up quickly, so I'm not the only one freaking out," said Cody also getting dressed.

"Lets just go down to the lobby, and see if Max and Bob are here yet," said Zack.

"Why would they be here?" said Cody.

"I told them to come by to hang out today," said Zack, leaving the room and walking towards the door.

"That was yesterday when everything made sense," said Cody, following him.

"Calm down," said Zack, getting into the elevator. "Nothing is really that different."

"Are you sure about that?" Cody asked as the elevators opened on the first floor. The whole lobby was dark. There were cobwebs in every corner and candles lit all around. The walls were black and outlined with blood red paint. The couch and chairs looked like they came right out of a haunted house and the whole place had an eerie feeling that neither of them could explain.
