Thank You to Leeleechanlee for helping me with this story!

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters, only the ideas for this story

Rated M for Mature (lmao just felt like saying that, sounds like a video game commercial or something :P)

Matt: Did you say video games!?

Me: Umm... no? Go back to... whatever you were doing before

Rated M for future chapters... not really this chapter ...

Warnings for this chapter: Profanity I guess... there's some curse words. Mello just can't avoid swearing

Mello: I can do/say whatever I want! *takes bite of chocolate*

Me: I never said you couldn't!

Let's just get on with the story...


"May I ask why I am dressed like this?" Near asked, tugging at one of the bunny ears.

"You lost the bet, remember?" Mello smirked.

It was a few months ago… before Matt's little stunt and Mello's kidnapping. Near had bet that they'd never make it out alive, however, Matt had worn a bullet-proof vest and Mello took the notebook pages from Takada and fled from the fire. So right after, they came to the SPK headquarters, unharmed. Because of this, Near had to do whatever Mello said.

Now here they were on Halloween night, the day of the dead, and Mello had pushed Near into the bathroom, locking the door on him and forcing him to change into a full body bunny costume that was entirely white except for the pink inside of the ears.

Matt walked out of his room looking down at his PSP, too distracted by killing people in COD to notice the scene in front of him. "Die you damn noob!" he said, pushing down a bunch of buttons. "God, I hate campers."

"There you are," Mello smiled, holding out a werewolf costume that looked a bit more like a fox or a cute little puppy.

Matt looked up at the costume, raising an eyebrow. "What's that for?"

"You," Mello simply replied. "Go put it on." He threw it to Matt who caught it and turned around back into the bedroom, not bothering to question anything.

He came out a few minutes later with ears and a tail. "Why on earth am I wearing this?"

"It's Halloween, dumbass," Mello scoffed. "We're going to a party. Well, crashing one to be more exact."

"Then why isn't Mello wearing a costume?" Near inquired.

"I'm too badass for a costume," Mello sneered. "Besides, the only reason you have to dress up is your lack of confidence in us."

"How about me!?" Matt protested, "why do I have to wear this ridiculous outfit!?"

"Because you'll do whatever I say," Mello stated. "You're like my little pet." He pulled out a chocolate bar from his vest pocket. "You're loyal, sort of like a dog… basically," he bit off a piece of chocolate. "You're my bitch," Mello smirked.

Matt opposed this viewpoint but decided not to say anything, not wanting to start a fight. Instead, he just crossed his arms and mumbled under his breath, "I'm not a dog."

"What was that?" Mello asked.

"Nothing," Matt murmured as he walked past Mello to grab his car keys "We leaving then?"

"Yeah," Mello said, picking up the keys to his motorcycle "I'm gonna take my bike so you can just follow behind." He started walking out, but paused in the doorway. "And Near is going with you," he added, saying his name with repugnance as if it were the most horrible word in existence.

"Whatever, let's go," Matt said as he walked out the door with Near following behind.

He got in his car and started the engine, waiting for Near to get in and buckle his seatbelt before pulling away, trailing after Mello. 'I can't believe he called me his bitch' he took out a cigarette and lit it. 'Why do I always listen to every single word he says!?' he placed the cigarette between his lips.

"You really shouldn't smoke," Near said. "It's bad for your health. I'm sure you already know that though," he added. Matt glanced over and Near was staring out the window, twirling his finger in his hair. "It's also best to keep your eyes on the road," he said, not looking away from the window.

'How did he know I was looking at him?!' He shrugged it off, focusing on the road.

"Yeah, people warn me all the time. Not like I care though," he replied to both comments.

"You're going to end up dead one day," Near said. "And I'd prefer not to be killed by second-hand smoking." His gaze remained fixed on outside.

Matt rolled his eyes and cracked a window open. "I'll be fine. No need to worry about me," he said. "Besides, we're all going to die eventually. At least I can choose how I want to die."

"If that's what you desire," Near replied unemotionally.

We remained quiet for some time until Near broke the silence.

"Why is Mello dragging us to this party even though he hates me?" Near questioned. "And made me where this," he added with repulsion.

"Who knows why Mello does anything," Matt shrugged. "Or why he made me wear this. Your costume could be worse though."

"How so?" Near queried.

"Well…" he started, letting out a puff of smoke."He could've dressed you up like a playboy bunny."

Near shuddered at the idea, but didn't say anything else.

They continued the car ride in silence.

They arrived at a house with Psycho Killer by Talking Heads blaring from inside.

Heading inside, Mello lead the way to the bar.

Light, dressed in a tux, stepped in front of them "What are you doing here?!"

"None of your business," Mello sneered. "What are you supposed to be?"

"Bond," Light replied "James Bond."

Misa, dressed as Harley Quinn from Batman, ran up to them and wrapped her arms around Light's arm. "Hey Mello! I didn't know you guys were coming... I see you've met Light," she smiled.

"Yes, we're all fairly acquainted with Kira," Near remarked.

"Oh, when are you going to get over that? The case has ended," Misa complained. "My Raito-kun is not Kira!" She shouted, clinging to Light's arm tighter.

"I'm not convinced," Near commented.

"Shut up, Near!" Mello commanded. "We're not here to argue." He walks over to the bar and grabs a drink. "Here, try it," he held the bottle out front of him. "It tastes like apple juice."

"I don't drink alcohol," Near stated.

"You do now," Mello forced Near's mouth open, making him consume the drink.

Near gasped, swallowing the beverage, almost choking. "Why did you do that?"

"Along with having to dress like that…" Mello glared. "You are also going to get completely trashed tonight."

"Are you implying that I am garbage that you wish to be thrown out later?" Near asked, clearly not understanding that he'd be getting intoxicated tonight.

"While it's true that you are garbage…" Mello pondered. "That's not what I meant."

Matt broke into their conversation. "No, what Mello is trying to say is that he's going to get you drunk."

"Only beverages may be consumed, Matt," Near remarked.

"Will you just shut up already?!" Mello yelled, grabbing Near's hair and pouring more beer down his throat. "Quit being such a goddamn smartass!"

Near started coughing, trying to get away from Mello.

"Alright, you two have fun with that," Matt turned on his heels to face the door "I'm going outside to smoke," he said, quickly walking away before Mello got him involved.

'All the girls here are dressed like sluts,' he thought as he walked through the crowd. The girls were all dressed as bats, French maids, nurses, witches, and 'sexy kitties'; all of which were very exposing. 'Any reason to look like a whore,' he thought. The guys were dressed as mummies, zombies, and superheroes.

Once outside, he took out his pack of cigarettes and lit one. Don't Fear the Reaper by Blue Öyster Cult had started playing from the house. He leaned against the wall and watched kids walking around trick or treating. He saw some teenagers, 'heading to a party' he figured.

One was dressed as a pop star, a fairy, another as a devil, the fourth as angel and the last as a gypsy. A girl dressed like little red riding hood was walking around alone when a boy dressed up as a vampire came up behind her, scaring her, and pretended to bite her neck. She laughed and kissed him. A few little kids were running around trick-or-treating. There was one dressed as a ghost, a girl in a princess costume, a bee, the grim reaper, and a pirate. A little girl dressed as Pikachu was walking with a pair of twins dressed up as Mario and Luigi. 'They have the best costumes' thought Matt. Now he felt like playing video games.

When he finished his cigarette, he burnt it out and flicked it onto the ground. He decided to go sit in his car. He saw the time was 8:23. 'This is gonna be a long night,' he groaned. 'They won't miss me,' he thought as he took out his PSP and started playing MediEvil Resurrection. After a while, he had gotten bored of that game and switched to Resident Evil: Apocalypse.


This is my first story so please let me know what you think of it so far. :)

Also, the Pokémon character walking around with Mario characters probably seems like a random combination, but I'm random like that! I started off with just the twins and then continued looking through Halloween costumes and saw Pikachu and decided to add that in cause Pikachu is so cute lol
