Yes, this fic will be updated a lot faster. And, I just kind of wanted to say that this fic isn't really for the challenge as much as for myself. You could call it a stress-reliever. This fic will not have a lot of planning, it's much more of a whatever-comes-to-your-mind-first kind of thing. With that being said, enjoy!

Mamoru cringed as he walked into the frightening Halloween mask store. Yes, the powerful Tuxedo Kamen was frightened by a couple of masks. But, so would you, if you had seen some of them! He walked to the front desk and rang the bell.
"Boo!" a petite figure jumped up from behind the desk.
Mamoru was ashamed to say he had jumped back a couple of feet.
The girl took off the native tribe mask and shook out her hair to reveal two blonde odangos.
"Ha! I scared you!" Tsukino Usagi shrieked, her voice shaking with mirth.
"You did not, Odango! You just startled me, is all. What are you doing here anyways?" Mamoru, asked.
"Oh, I'm looking after the shop for a friend while she takes her lunch break." Usagi replied, absentmindedly, returning the mask she had worn back to its shelf. "And what are you doing here, anyways?"
"I'm just looking around. Uh…Motoki might be having a masquerade ball soon so I thought I'd just come in and look around." Mamoru replied, looking around at the scary store.
"A masquerade ball? How fun! But, don't you need a date for those kinds of things?"
"Yeah, so?" Mamoru said, distractedly.
"Well…who would want to go out with you?" Usagi asked, choking back laughter.
"Oh, so you think nobody would want to go out with me?" Mamoru hid a smile as a plan formed in his mind.
Usagi shook her head no.
"Oh, okay then." Mamoru said, turning to walk out of the store.
"Wait!" Usagi said. "I thought you were going to buy a mask.'
"I was, but what's the point? If nobody will go with me." Mamoru sighed while choking back fits of laughter.
Usagi hesitated and then said, "I'll go with you."
"No, Odango Atama. I'll go with you." Mamoru smirked. His plan had worked! And now he had a date with Odango. Oh boy.
