Deep, deep within the fog, a captivating voice echoes:

Come, come, until you're deeper into the heart of the woods,

Hurry, hurry, you'll get closer if you're quick!

Come, come, now isn't it fun?

Let the games begin!

"Happy Halloween, Young Master." Sebastian greeted, early in the morning.

"Gudmoring…" Ciel droned as he rubbed his eyes.

"Are you trick-or-treating, Young Master?" Sebastian asked with a smile.

"Wipe that stupid smile off your face, Sebastian." He sipped his tea. "Of course I am not going!"

"Forgive me. I assumed that the Young Master who loves games and sweets would go."

"I'm not that lowly." He told him as Sebastian dressed him for the day.

"HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!" Elizabeth burst in the door.

"Ciel-kun! Come trick-or-treat with me!" She pleaded. "I want to go, but Paula's awfully scared of the dark. And what if…" She dropped her voice to a whisper. "…Trick and Treat might appear?"

"Trick and Treat? And who may that be?" He sighed as Sebastian chuckled.

"Trick and Treat Ciel! Trick and Treat are known for manipulating children with sweets and games to their house and brutally murdering them!" She shuddered. "I'm so weak against sweets and games!"

"As Young Master is," Sebastian smirked.

Ciel gave him a glare. "Shut up, Sebastian. Aren't demons supposed to celebrate Halloween as well?" He whispered the second sentence to him.

"Halloween, Young Master, may as well be Satan's birth date. We celebrate it of course, but we don't go around wearing stupid imitations of monsters or princesses or the stupidest thought of how mythical creatures look." He laughed a little.

"I can't, Lizzy. I thought you'd know I have work from the queen." He turned right back to her.

"But…Ciel-kun…" Elizabeth looked at him longingly. "You ALWAYS have work!" she left with a sigh. Mission Ciel and Halloween failed.

"But Trick and Treat are quite interesting things. I've never heard of them. I guess they may be the new Jack the Ripper." Sebastian thought out loud.

"Trick and Treat, eh?" Ciel grinned. "How new. There's been nothing but crap these past days. I hope we get to meet them."

"Young Master! A-a letter!" Finni handed him an envelope with a red seal pressed onto it.

"Thank you Finnian. You may go now." Ciel stared at the letter before ripping it open.

"Dear Ciel Phantomhive,

Thank you for your work for England. Hopefully, England will be a nicer, safer place with you being the Watchdog.

The rumor has reached my ear that every Halloween, there are two people named 'Trick' and 'Treat'. They murder young children who have been unintelligent enough to wander to their house after being manipulated with treats and toys and games, offering them hospitality. But whenever my own guards come to the scene, the house is never there. You may not know about them since you never go trick-or-treating. (Which I recommend strongly for a child your age! My Albert and I have gone together once.)

(Ciel noticed that there were spots of dampness and guessed that it was from tears.)

Anyhow, please address this matter seriously, despite it being Halloween. Find out anything about 'Trick' and 'Treat' and if you can, stop them.

Best regards,

Queen Victoria of Britain"

…

"Looks like you will go trick-or-treating tonight, Young Master." Sebastian read over Ciel's shoulder.

"Holy shit."

"Young Master, I am guessing you are quite well prepared." Sebastian smirked.

"Shut up! I thought I told you that already!" A girl in pigtails replied angrily…well…someone that was dressed as a girl.

"I thought I wouldn't have to live through this Hell again!!!" Ciel cried in despair. "Pink. Fluffy, light flowers. And PINK. PINK. PINK!!!!"

If Sebastian didn't control himself well right there and then, he would've died from laughter at what his young master…mistress had yelled.

"Make sure Elizabeth doesn't see me in this! Nor let anyone see you! I'll call for you when I need help!" He…She growled.

(Ciel: KAI! STOP ACTING LIKE I'M A GIRL!!!!

Me: Hell no Ciel. It's ever so fun. Did you know Ciel could also be a girl's name? It means "sky" in a romantic way in French. But you look more like a Samantha. Or maybe a Rose.

Ciel: Damn you to HELL!

Me: OK! I'll stop! Sheesh!)

Sebastian looked at him with an eyebrow upward. "And how may I distract Lady Elizabeth if I am not allowed to be seen?"

"With pure luck, demon!" He spat.

Ciel wandered to the Forest of Honey where other children were passing through to the other side of town. He tried to blend in with the other girls and boys his age.

"Wow! You're a really good princess!" A girl squealed.

"Thank you. You aren't a bad princess either." Ciel almost choked. This girl wasn't even wearing a hint of silk! Just plain colored cotton and the absolute worst color on her.

"What if Trick and Treat come?" The girl muttered worriedly. "I hope they won't! They'll murder us all! I heard that their candy is so spectacular, is surpasses that butler of Phantomhive!"

"Oh how I wish to steal even one little piece!" another cried.

"The temptation!" They all cried as they crept near the house of Trick and Treat. They had come quite deep into the forest and this clearly was the house.

"Don't, Lexie!" the other girl called to her. (AN: Isn't Lexie such an awesome name? My friend's name is Alexandra, but everyone calls her Lexie.)

Lexie drew nearer and nearer. "Oh, but I'll just ask for one piece! Just one! We never get good candy anyway!" Lexie complained as she threw her bucket of sweets that the other children dived for.

"They are all Sebastian's sweets!" Ciel realized as he tasted one. "Where did she get this?"

Lexie pounded on the door screaming for sweets, followed by the mob of children. Ciel stood and watched.

Vines swirled from the outsides of the house and grew upward in a rapid motion.

"Happy Halloween, everyone!" A girl dressed in a light pink dress with straps and black dress sat on a vine.

(See /watch?v=Pb6fSiMBbv4&feature=PlayList&p=7A05B914A94964A3&index=0&playnext=1 or search Trick and Treat with English Sub-Reborn! Version Kagamine Rin Len–HQ on youtube for a look on this character's clothes. This video is very good, I recommend it.)

Screams for candy echoed the forest. The house was lit with a full moon.

"Aren't you all just precious? Fine then, let's play a game! Whoever wins will get to come and have some candy!" She giggled, her long, straight black hair flying around in the wind.

"What's the game?!" They all echoed as though under a spell.

"Just try and determine who the best in your group is." A boy cloaked in black as if wearing a butler's attire sat on another vine.

They laughed and slid back into the house.

"What a massacre." Ciel thought as he stared at the dead mob. They were obviously under a spell.

"Bravo! You were the only peaceful one!" The boy in black clapped.

"Indeed! Congratulations! Come, come, have some candy! Let's play a puppet game! I do love puppets! But Trick here likes hide and seek much better." The girl squealed in excitement.

"Trick…and Treat?" Ciel dragged himself towards him.

Sebastian was right-he really was weak against candy and games! He'd never had sweets better than Sebastian's and knowing that theirs could be better was a dream come true. To face the demon with humiliation that he had lost in at least one game!

Ciel wasn't being manipulated with a spell, they had noticed, but merely coming in his own will. HE had forgotten, at that point, about being the Queen's Watchdog, and had rather become a child in a dress believing their fake hospitality.
