DING-DONG!

Enzan looked up from his business papers and checked the digital clock on the wall. It was almost ten o'clock at night. Who on earth would be at the door at this--

DING-DONG!

"Am I going to have to get that myself?!" Enzan called, hoping one of the servants would hear.

DING-DONG!

Enzan sighed and stood up, walking calmly towards the door.

DING-DONG! DING-DONG! DING-DONGDINGDONGDINGDINGDINGDING--

Enzan unlocked the door and threw it open. "WHAT DO YOU-- yeep!" Someone shoved a pillowcase in Enzan's face. "What the heck?"

"TRICK OR TREAT!" Netto exclaimed happily.

"What..." Enzan gasped, "You nearly gave me a heart attack, Hika-" Enzan blinked. "What are you WEARING?"

"A costume." Netto tugged at the towel around his neck, accompanying his pajamas and Mardi-Gras mask. "Sorta."

Enzan raised an eyebrow. This was certainly... out of the ordinary. Of course, this *was* Netto...

Netto noticed Enzan's confusion, and quickly explained. "Papa's in America right now. He told me about this holiday they have, Halloween, that goes on tonight -- October 31st." Netto smiled. "Children go around in costume carrying bags, and go from house to house. Each house gives them a little bit of candy, until they have a load so heavy they can't walk!"

"And people actually agree to this?"

Netto nodded.

"So this is a real holdiay?"

Netto nodded again.

"So this is an absolutely for-real AMERICAN holdiay?"

Netto nodded, a big grin on his face.

"Welcome to Japan, Hikari." Enzan slammed the door. "Loser."
