It's me again! I want to give a big shout out to angeloftorment, who graciously reviewed and gave me suggestions for fears! Unlike the rest of you, (glares) however there is about another chapter before I need the fears so suggestions are still allowed! Anyways, thanks angeloftorment, this long chapter is dedicated to you! I'll try to get the rest in by Halloween, but it ain't easy with my schoolwork and stuff like that.

Disclaimer: I do NOT, in any way own the Mighty Ducks. That is all.

Ch.1- The Plot Thickens

Oct.29, 7: 00 A.M.

It was a nice and quiet morning at the Pond (well, it is until Nosedive shows up) Wildwing and Mallory was talking about what kind of publicity stunt Phil will have them do, Duke was making a fresh batch of coffee, Tanya was reading a book and Grin was, well, meditating (duhh.) In fact, it was a lot like any average morning, except for the fact that there were fake skeletons and jack o' lanterns everywhere. You see, when the Mighty Ducks arrived at Earth, they all agreed to celebrate the normal Earth celebrations, so that they could get more use to Earthican culture. Yep, everything was peaceful and nice, until Nosedive came in and slammed a marked map of Anaheim on the table, causing Tanya to jump out of her chair.

"Guys, I have made a map of this city and I have marked all the best houses with candy for trick-or-treating, with a little help from Mookie and Thrash of course," stated Nosedive rather proudly, ignoring all the death glares from everybody.

"Aren't you a little old for trick-or-treating, Nosedive?"

"A chance to get all the free candy you want? Nobodies too old for that, Mal," answered Nosedive.

"Still, with everyone in costumes, it will be easy for Dragaunous to hatch an evil plan, so I want you to be on the lookout," ordered Wildwing as he playfully ruffed his little bro's hair.

"What's so fun about trick-or-treating if I have to be on lookout all the time!"

"Speaking of costumes," interrupted Duke, who wanted to change the subject quickly before Wing goes into a long speech about how important it is to keep an eye out for danger, "what are you dressing up as?"

"Isn't that obvious? I'm going as a -"

However Nosedive's answer was cut short when Drake 1's alarm sounded. Everyone rushed to the computer.

"There seems to be a, uh, you know, high energy readings from the bank," stammered Tanya.

"Must be lizard lips and his goons, come on team, let's head out!"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sure enough, at the bank….

Wraith, Siege and Chameleon were shoving fistfuls of dollars into sacks (obviously, what else is there to steal at a bank?) until Chameleon shouted in the form of an old lady, "oh isn't that sweet, the Mighty Ducks have come to pay us a little visit." Suddenly, he began to pull out a laser and began shooting.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After a few minutes of hardcore, pulse pounding action, the ducks were winning, by a landslide.

"This is just too easy," commented Duke as he easily jumped out of a laser beams path.

"Yeah, and that's what's worrying me, they haven't even called out the drones," Wildwing shot a puck, knocking Siege's laser from his hand.

As they were about to run in to capture the three Saurians Wraith pulled out a smoke bomb and threw it on the ground, stopping the ducks in their track. As the smoke cleared, nothing was left except for the skull on Wraith's stick and a book. Wildwing cautiously went to pick it up.

"Strange, this book is filled with weird words," flipping through the book and stopping at the book marked page

"I believe that those are a…a…ancient Saurian text," comment Tanya, "I think Drake 1 might have a program that can translate it for us."

"I don't know, it looks like a trap, ya know."

"Still, it might be worthwhile to see what this page is talking about, looks kinda important for it to be bookmarked," Wildwing passed the book and the skull to Tanya, "Tanya I want an analysis of that skull, see if you can find anything interesting about it."

As the gang walked towards the Migrator, Grin calmly said, "we must hurry, I sense that the clouds may start to weep," pointing at the rain clouds.

"That's strange, it was clear when we arrived." As if on cue, lightning struck and rain poured, just as they all ran back inside the Migrator, they heard a scream. Instinctively they turned to Tanya, who was the source of the yell.

"Ah, er, sorry, for a moment there I thought I saw the, uh, eye sockets of the skull turn red, heh, heh," laughing nervously she quickly went to her seat. Unbeknownst to her or the rest of the ducks, what she saw was not an illusion but dark powers awakening.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, somewhere in the forest… (11:59 P.M.)

Dragaunous' goons stood in a clearing as Dragaunous himself watched as Siege carefully placed a helmet (the Headless Horse-duck"s helmet) in the center.

"And just where did you find all these artefacts?" questioned Dragaunous suspiciously.

"They were family heirlooms," was the bland reply he got.

Wraith suddenly flung out his arms and started to chant, "I call upon you, oh lord of the underworld, to summon up the evil thy name is the Headless Horse-duck! May he be strong once again and be free from his shackles, and may he be all powerful in the dark arts again until the twelfth strike on All Hollow's Eve!" With that he clapped his hands once and a bolt of lightning hit the exact position of the helmet, causing Chameleon to leap into the arms of Siege, who immediately dropped him on the floor. The ground began to rumble, and soon to glaring red dots appeared in the helmet and a black gloved hand shot up from the ground.

"Mi lord, I believe it will be wise to get out of here as soon as possible," advised Wraith as the ground kept rumbling. Dragaunous took his advice (for once) and teleported out of there. The others followed almost instantly, save Chameleon would stated, "You don't have to tell me twice!" He teleported just as the Horse-duck broke free, donning a long red cape and dressed in all black (has any of you seen the Tim Burton film, Sleepy Hollow? The Headless Horse-duck dresses exactly like the Headless Horseman.)

"Finally! I have escaped the wretched underworld! Now all I have to do is to find my head and I shall rule once again!" Dark fog appeared in his stretched out hand, and a glowing dark purple hockey stick appeared out of nowhere. It was his magical scepter, capable of transforming into anything he wanted, help locate his head and it helps his shooting a lot in games too, 'Come Daredevil!" Another cloud appeared at his side and out appeared a sturdy and mean looking black stallion; it had smoke coming out of its nostrils. Horse-duck (who I will from now on refer to since typing out the Headless Horse-duck is a bit tiring) started to get up on his horse, Daredevil, and kicked its hind, making it stand up its two hind legs, nostrils blaring and with that, Horse-duck started to ride off to the direction of his head which is the exact direction to the Pond.

Finally, the story starts. Nothing much to say here, oh well, see you next time!
