In the Guillotine Gate region of Halloween Town, three beings stood, two clustered near the third. One is a regular there, Sora of Destiny Islands. This young lad wore a small pumpkin mask skewed over his right side's bright blue eye. His gravity defying brown hair was now dipped in black and cute little vampire fangs peeked over his grinning lips. The boy's outfit was strange and fae, with tiny bat wings arching out of a slim back and white crossed black gloves, which resembled claws, covering long hands. A black and white jacket, with white demon wing designs on a black collar, shielded a black long sleeved shirt. A golden crown pendant with tiny white wings to match the collar hung over the young boy's heart. Black pants held at the top by a dark blue belt and tied at the bottom with bright red wrapping were above black sneakers to finish off his dark outfit.
Next to be focused on, was that boy's newer friend. A girl with fire-bright red hair that was freshly tipped with shadows like the boy-vampire's own spiky locks. She was called Kairi, and she too lived on the same islands as the other two, but once her home had been a magnificent castle called Hallow-Bastion. Her blueish purple eyes matched well with their dismal surroundings and her pointed witch's hat had a ribbon matching her eyes above the obsidian rim. Underneath a violet net shirt and leggings, pale peach skin glowed. Above those lay a short black and ruby red shirt and black and crimson mid-length gloves in a pattern opposite the short top. Her black based, purple spider-webbed skirt floated over tight black shorts. And to cover her small yet dangerous feet were short heeled black leather boots.
The third member of their party had grown up alongside the wild brown haired boy and had become friends with the girl at the same time as his childhood friend. This boy, the one that the previously mentioned two were smiling at, was usually a tall silver haired teenager with startlingly bright green eyes. However, due to the magical nature of this plane, the boy was now a werewolf that was fully affected by the world's ever present full moon. Instead of the fierce and scary individual with razor sharp fangs and piercing claws overlain by a coat of pale silver fur that all three had been expecting, a small and cuddly pale silver wolf-cub cutely growled at his two best friends in a squeaky voice as his lupine green eyes narrowed in indignation at the embarrassing situation he believed he had found himself in.
(AN: My Kairi-muse told me that her feet were dangerous because she'd started kicking those that annoyed her in the shins and those that were going to kidnap her in the groin. Sora and Riku apparently have the bruises to prove the first part at this point and had nodded emphatically when Kairi said that. One of the Axels, and a few of the Vexens and Xemnas' had backed away and clutched their nether regions when they saw the look on her face for the second part. Which was actually kinda funny to watch...)
