The Cullen's were all gathered in the house. Bella had felt nervous in her "outfit" that Alice had chosen for her. Usually the Cullen's didn't participate in Halloween festivities but they found themselves becoming more and more involved with human activities when Bella was around. They had already insisted on this party against Bella's will, and with every member going all out, there was no turning back now. Every inch of white had been covered in black and crème wallpaper, and all the furniture was replaced with gothic, centurion pieces that Alice had bought at a hefty price at the authentic antique auctions around Washington. The lighting had also been replaced with a dark orange spotlight, and small flickering globes dangling randomly to create the element of horror.

"This is one freaking authentic house of horror!" Rosalie looked around, making her entrance from the top of the stairs. As usual, Rosalie was one to try and outshine others, and she certainly did so with her elaborate "angel" costume. Her dress was lacy and short, covering the shoulders, but with a low cut, showing off her entrancing collarbone and chest area. Her wings were large, and were crumpled against the wall as she tried to glide down the stairs. Overall, her costume was as extravagant as any Victoria's Secret ensemble.

Alice, ironically, decided on dressing up as Alice in Wonderland, the Disney version. She had a cute blue and white dress as well as a very convincing looking blonde wig with the through her hair.

"Thanks Rose, I knew you were going to say that," Alice smirked as she danced around the room, readjusting all the light bulbs safely.

Jasper reluctantly paced around the room, looking bored and anxious. Every time Bella had looked in his direction she couldn't help but laugh. Alice had obviously forced him into wearing his costume, a VERY convincing Frankenstein disguise. He had professional green makeup done, and Alice had gone so far as to get a special effects makeup artist in to give him the saggy angry look. He had a custom made headpiece too. His suit was designer no doubt, but torn in places to look rugged. Even his hair was died black.

Alice had really gone all out.

"Where are Edward and Emmett?" Bella asked, wondering why they hadn't made their appearances yet.

"They're still muttering like little girls about the costumes we chose them," Bella felt a breeze and instantly Rose had brought them out. The room was silent for a second before the hysterical laughter from All four of the others pierced the air.

Jasper and Rose were still giggling childishly as Bella regained her composure, "Alice...you are good!!"

They all started to laugh again as the two boys looked embarrassed. Edward approached Alice, making a squeaky noise with each footstep.

"Alice, you've even got the squeaky shoes!" Rose laughed harder.

"Alice, You owe me big time," Edward muttered to her with a serious tone, "When I thought you said wild, I didn't think you'd sink this low!"

"All In good fun boys!" Alice giggled, trying not to make eye contact.

Rose strutted up to Emmett, still giggling. She held her most seductive tone as she said, "Emmett baby," then burst out laughing, "Do you need a diaper change?"

Emmett ripped the dummy out of his mouth, breaking it instantly, "Alice! This is not funny!"

Everyone started laughing harder as Alice held up the bag full of dummies, "I have plenty of spares!"

After afew minutes of sheer laughter, everyone exhaled in nostalgia as the boys slouched around, clearly uncomfortable.

"So Alice, you haven't let us out of the house for 9 hours now, what have you got planned?"

"Well I'll have to show you won't I?"

They all headed outside through the door, but in a strange path. Black walls formed a corridor ahead, with the only light guide the stars in the sky, as they went behind some sort of secret curtain. In front of them, they saw a giant black wall twisting around the curves of the land, forming some sort of box. Further back there two trucks unloading very large packages. They followed her down the terrain towards the trucks.

Alice swiftly tore off the packaging before Bella could blink, and underneath was a large wooden coffin, something that looked like it came from a movie set.
She signalled like a ringmaster, pointing elegantly at the coffin, "There are four coffins here with synthetically animated corpses inside. They've been activated and go off in two hours, so I want each of you to place one into the GIANT MAZE!"

"A maze?" Bella said, glancing at the wall.

"A giant maze?" Emmett stared, looking quite impressed.

"A giant Fucking maze with scary things inside!" Rose yelled.

"Yes!" Alice said, looking highly irritable with stress.

They all tried to peer over the wall and could slightly see the other walls. The maze was truly gigantuous, engulfing all the land around possible without getting into forest near the Cullen residence.

"Here," She handed Jasper, Emmett, Rose and Edward all a map with a dot somewhere, "Navigate your way around and this is where I want you to put your coffin. You've only got about three hours until the guests come, incase something happens. Bella and I will be waiting at the house ready to greet our guests when they complete the maze and are ready to party!!"

Bella kissed Edward on the cheek as everyone else went to pick up their coffins. "Have fun."

"Whatever you do, don't get lost."
