Starts off heartfelt and ends with humor. Musaki finally convinces Arizona to go to the Halloween party and this will be cool!

Chapter 2: Musaki's Persuasion

The next day comes and Musaki was looking up to watch the sunrise on top of the roof and he was thinking of many ways to let Arizona have some fun at Halloween for the first time and he just felt like he needs something to do to prevent himself from missing out from this experience.

He looks up at the orange sky and thinks about what would his parents say in that situation and he just closed his eyes and whispered, "Mom, dad...I need some wisdom. How can I help my friend have some fun even though he misses out on anything every year?"

Only silence is the only thing he can hear, but he can hear their voices in his heart and he closed his eyes and thought about what they could say to help.

'Xing-Fu...just help him in anyway you can.' his father said.

'Make sure that he has loads of fun and maybe your friend will be able to have a good time that he'll experience the same thing every year.' his mother added.

With those thoughts coming in, he opened his eyes, looked at up the sky and lets out a smile. He then looks down and sees Arizona walking through the Sacred Hall of Warriors and he just got down on the ground, alarming Arizona in a combative stance.

When he sees that it's Musaki, he takes a sigh of relief and he said, "You kinda scared me."

Musaki chuckled softly and said, "Sorry, dude. I was just...looking at the sunrise on the roof."

Arizona looks up and asked, "On the roof? Seriously?"

Musaki nodded his head and Arizona rolled his eyes a little bit and he asked, "So...one day until Halloween comes. You know, I felt the same way when I first got adopted and I never had a Halloween before. They kinda helped me to sorta...experience it for the first time, maybe have some fun and it worked, I guess. Since then, I was totally excited about it and I never would've gotten the chance if Po, Shifu and the Five hadn't have helped me when they did."

Arizona stared at him after hearing his story about his first Halloween and he could relate the same way, but different. He then asked, "Why are you telling me this?"

Musaki looked at him with a smile and said, "Because...I want to help you. I know you told me that you've never celebrated it before and with this halloween party tonight...maybe you'd...like to come with us. It could be fun."

Arizona didn't know what to make of it, but he could see that Musaki is helping him out in any way possible and he doesn't want to miss out on another celebration again and he wants to have some fun for the first time and he let out a deep sigh and he said, "Of course. I've been missing out one too many times before and I seriously want to have some fun for once."

With that, Musaki let out a smile and said, "That's what I need to hear."

Later on, Arizona sees a costume on his bed and he sees his costume is red cape and black shirt with a plastic samurai sword. He picks it up and tries it on and when he looked in the mirror, he sees himself looking some much different and he tries to do his best warrior pose with the sword.

He chuckled softly and said, "I could get used to this."

Minutes later, Arizona went down the hallway and he sees Musaki walking by with a blue and green Japanese robe with a straw hat and he chuckled softly and said, "Looking good."

"You too." Musaki added.

Then, Kazuo, Shing, Ruiz and Zeke came out with several different costumes-Kazuo; a peasant, Shing; a monster, Ruiz; a king and Zeke: a prince-looking really spiffy for their attire. Zeke looked at Musaki's costume and said, "You look like you just came out of Japan."

Musaki sighs amused-like and said, "Our origins are from Japan, you know."

Zeke nooded his head and said, "That's true."

Kazuo notices Arizona's samurai warrior costume and he told him, "I bet the girls will be all over you with that costume."

Arizona chuckled embarassedly and replied, "Don't know about that, but thanks anyway."

Later on, Shifu walked in the hallway and he sees them with so many costumes and his costume was a black and red wizard with a sorcerer's hat and he said, "Students, who will be my apprentice?"

Musaki chuckled softly as he saw Shifu's costume and he said, "Wow. That looks awesome."

"Why thank you, Musaki. One of the costumes Zeke bought really fit me well. Of course, I look like I'm ready to train students in the art of wizardry."

"Even I want to be your apprentice." Shing added.

Suddenly; the Five came in different costumes; Viper; an angel, Crane; a werewolf, Monkey; a court jester, Mantis; a zombie and Tigress; a Japanese geisha. Musaki was a little weirded out with the geisha costume and he said, "My dad hails from Japan and I don't think that's how geisha girls wear."

Tigress scoffs at him and said, "You obviously don't know Japanese culture."

"I know the fact that you don't look the part."

Viper came to Musaki and she asked, "What do you think of my angel costume?"

Musaki was immediately falling for her costume and he told her, "You look like an angel to me. A very pretty, cute beautiful angel."

Viper giggled and said, "Thank you."

Ruiz scoffs and said, "Kiss-off."

And then, Po comes out with a mummy costume with bandages wrapped around his body, walking and moaning like a mummy attempting to scare them. As they heard that fake moaning sound, Tigress was the first one to notice it and hearing his stomach rumble as well.

"What are you supposed to be?" asked Shifu.

"I am a mummy." Po answered, imitating a mummy.

Musaki mocked the same tone and said, "You sound like an idiot."

Po glared at Musaki with that comment and he said, "Hey, I'm trying to play the part."

"I don't think mummies could hear someone's stomach growling and their bellies don't jiggle." Monkey said.

Musaki exclaimed and started laughing at that comment and they high-fived each other as well. All Po could do was just scoff and roll his eyes at them and they all went out of the hallway to get themselves ready, leaving Po and Tigress looking at each other's costumes and he said, "You look good."

Tigress chuckled and said, "So do you."

"Tomorrow, I'll take ya trick-or-treating."

"I'm kinda too old for that."

Po smiled and said, "Hey, gotta enjoy this experience one day. You don't know what you're missing."

She smiled and said, "Just this once, I'll do it."

"Awesome."
