South Ireland walked up to the steps of the castle, knocking on its door until an old man answered.

"Excuse me, my good sir, is this...Leap Castle?"

"Ei, who be askin'?" the old man questioned.

"I'm Ireland, I am having a Halloween party and I was wondering if I could have it here"

The old man looked confused,"Why sure, but you do know about the..."

"Yes, I know about the "ghosts" that live here, but we both know ghosts don't exist, lad"

"Whatever, yer' funeral" the old man whispered while grabbing his hat and coat, walking out the door.

"Oh, thanks me lad! You won't regret this, ill have your castle and my pay back to you by November!" South said excitedly.


Now, where do I begin, thought SI, looking around the huge cathedral where the party would be held. He looked over to the shelves with various nick nacks on them, and started loading them into a box. After, he finished that, SI started moving the chairs and tables into another room.

As he was doing this, a young man with dark brown hair, who looked identical to South walked into the room.

"Hello, little brother" the dark brown haired man spoke.

South turned around and saw the young man, and responded,"Were twins North, neither of us is the older er' the younger one"

"I'm the better one though" North Ireland laughed.

South, obviously annoyed, said"Listen, if your not here to help, yer can just leave"

"Fine, I'll leave, ye' potato lovin' heathen" North spat.

"YOUR NOT THE ONE TO BE CALLIN THE OTHER THE HEATHEN YOU PRO..."

South stopper himself from continuing the argument."Look, can you just go and ask England if he has anything I can use for the party?"

"Maybe I will, maybe I won't. Nah, probably won't" North said, leaving and closing the door behind him.

SI would usually never ask North Ireland, or England for that matter, for anything. But he was desperate. He had no decorations, no food, and no ideas. Then he remembered Americas party the previous year. Food stacked to the ceiling, scares around every corner, and music so loud you couldn't here for weeks. It was a hit, even that snob England liked it. Then he remembered how America volunteered to host the party this year, and was disappointed to hear that SI would host this years party. "Maybe America could help me with this" he thought to himself.

South walked into the other room to try and find a phone. He saw the doors wide open. "Just like that bastard North to leave the door open" he thought.

SI picked up the phone and called America.

"Hello, America?"

"Yo, I'm here, so Ireland dude, watcha calling for?"

"Well, er, I were wondering if ye could come over and help me with the party, ye know, fer Halloween?"

"Dude, I'm like totally watching a scary movie with my bro tony, I'll come by tomorrow, kay"

"Oh..er...ok, see ye then"

What was he to do. America wasn't a miracle worker, he cant make a party pop out of the ground in a day. And South didn't have a single decoration to put up on his own. Suddenly, South got and idea. He grabbed a piece of paper and started writing.

Dear Scotty,

Can I borrow the Loch Ness and/or its monster

Sincerely

Your Brother

South went outside and jumped on a pigeon. He took the letter, tied it to the birds foot, and said "OK, go and deliver this to Scotty". The bird flew off, cawing angrily at Ireland.

South continued to due this; a mummy from Egypt, a yeti from China, a cyclops from Greece, a dragon from Japan, ext. When he was finished, South began walking around the castle. It was dimly lit, tightly spaced, and over all, creepy. Walking down a staircase, SI tripped and fell into a small room with barred walls. He heard a clang behind him, turned and saw a tiny man, no taller than 10 Inches, in a green suit, laughing at him behind a closed door. With a poof of green smoke, the small man disappeared, his laugh slowly fading with the smoke.

"DAMN YOU LEPRECHAUN! YE GET BACK HERE AND LET ME OUT OF THIS INFERNAL CAGE!" screamed Ireland. He tried getting up, but fell down. He must have broke his ankle when he fell. The room was completely dark, he couldn't see a thing, except...something at the end of the cage. It was small about three feet tall. Focusing on it, South saw that it looked like a shaggy gray dog, but where its head should be, there looked to be a skull of a deer, with long black hair falling out of the top. The creature was starring straight into Souths eyes, and slowly began walking towards him, inch by inch, until...
