Washy here! Hawaii decided to visit before the snow and winter coldness fully takes over. I included Massy into the plan, and it actually worked! It was amazing! We also didn't get caught… amazingly enough. You're probably wondering what we did this time, right? Well, enjoy this Halloween story! The nations got tricked, no treats for them!

So Hawaii flew in and I picked her up. It was raining and pretty cold, but wasn't as bad as it could be. Staying the night, we flew out to Massachusetts the next morning. We got in late evening. DC was there and he said that everything was set. He still had no idea what we were planning, but we had a shelter to hide in if we needed it, and the World Meeting was taking place. Tomorrow would be the last day. This was perfect for us.

We stayed in Massy's house, because it wouldn't draw suspicion then. I made sure I had everything; the AB blood, and the glow sticks. Massy, who only vaguely knew what I was going to do, had the rest of the items; a few skeletons, some realistic looking pieces of body parts… yeah, need I say more? No? Okay.

"What are you planning, Alex?" Hawaii asked in her oh so adorable voice.

"Remember what we talked about? How I said it might be too scary for you to watch?" At Hawaii's affirmative I elaborated, "This is the set up. I'll be taking the biggest risk, but you two are quite important into the whole thing. But I can hook up my computer to the camera and record the video live."

"What's this for?" Massy held up the blood. "Why are there two things of it?"

Grinning I decided that showing them would be much better. Taking the powder and the skeleton, I powdered a hand. Then taking the liquid I placed a few drops right where I had placed the powder. Right in front of their eyes the hand turned red and began to drip… just like actual blood.

"This… this is brilliant!" Massy exclaimed.

"Is that supposed to be…blood?" Hawaii squeaked.

"It's just to make it look like blood. If they were to taste it, then they'd know it wasn't real." I explained. "But you can't scare anyone unless you make it as realistic as possible, da?"

Hawaii began to get a little nervous while Massy and I finished some preparations. When night fell we headed over to the conference room. We each were carrying a bag; me carrying my precious computer and video camera. DC met us at the building and let us in. We didn't turn on the light, knowing that would give away that people were here. Massy lead us to the room that meetings were held at. Opening the door we set the stuff on the table.

Blacking out the windows (a simple black cloth draping works beautifully), we went to work. I let Hawaii place the body parts wherever she wanted and Massy set up the opening trick. I quickly put my video camera where it had the best possible view, while still remaining hidden. It was farther than I wanted, but I could always zoom. Next came the lighting. It would all be black, the lights wouldn't turn on, so we had to have an eerie glow. We discussed quietly how this was going to happen, and finally decided on what we'd do. Since it was too technical to make the lights dim; we put some loose lighting that could be remotely turned on. I also found that I had some left over lightning wires. I can't remember the technical name, but they're fun. This was going to introduce them to the whole charade. I set it up, around the window, the yellow wires not looking too much out of place.

"Isn't the meeting during the day?" Hawaii asked.

"Yeah." Massy affirmed.

"Then won't they see this?" Hawaii asked.

That was one thing we hadn't thought about too hard on. Of course the natural light would ruin it… "Umm, I guess that's true. We haven't decided on what we'd do about though…" I drifted off.

"Can't we leave the drapes there?" Hawaii suggested. "I mean; if we put happy Halloween or something on them, they won't be taken down, will they?"

"That's… not a bad idea." I agree.

"Alright. I'm on it!" Massy stood up and finished the last touches.

Now all we needed to do was to make sure the lights couldn't come on. For that, we needed to get to the power box. Once everything was done we checked the time and saw that we had half the night left. We found the power box and found out which room was the one we wanted. I gave Hawaii the job of turning the light on the next day. We got back to the room and slept.

*a few mintes before the meeting*

Some of the things that were going to happen needed to be manual. So I wore all black, put on a black hood (one of those cool ones that you can see out of but no one can see in. They're amazing!) and crouched right next to a plant. The room was completely dark, very little actually coming in. I guess everyone was thinking dad had planned for the lights off. I slowly turned the camera on and turned on night mode. The signal was the flash of light that I would create. However, I needed to make sure the door was locked. Using the darkness, staying close to the ground, and pretty slow movements I made my way to the door. I could hear the nations arguing, trying to get what was going on from dad. I quickly locked the door and made my way back.

For my next trick, I needed to be close to the stuff. I waited until Germany called order then plugged it in. It flashed, looking exactly like lightening. I had made it back into the shadows before anyone could notice, and out of the way of the lights. As I started mumbling a small incantation the pale light blue lights filled the room. I could feel the warmth of the amulet on my chest and the skeleton that we had set up began to float. I'd definitely have to thank Auntie Wales for this. The wraith, for that's what it looked like, floated toward dad, coming relatively close to Germany. A small piece of paper was dropped landing on Germany's lap. I kept guiding the wraith toward dad, the dripping of the fake blood leaving a trail. I managed to make it move faster, scaring him even more. I'm sure everyone in a mile radius heard the scream.

I then changed the direction and had it charge toward Italy. Even with his white flag, I continued to 'attack'. I also did the same to Japan, and England before I turned the wraith toward France and just gave him a giant hug with the wraith. His look was absolutely priceless! That was my cue to leave. Although, I couldn't exactly, so I made my way to the black cloth and sneaked behind it. I managed to sit on the window sill before beeping Hawaii. I saw the lights come on and waited. The screamings died down until there was absolute silence.

"America… what is this?" I heard England asked.

"It looks like a bloodied foot." I heard dad answer.

"This isn't funny America." I heard someone else state.

"Look, it's not me! I would never trick you guys this badly! Or rather, I wouldn't have the knowledge to trick you this good." Dad admitted.

"I'm out of here. This place is haunted." I heard someone comment.

I heard them trying to open the door. It rattled, but I didn't hear a door open. They all started to force the door open, but it wouldn't budge. Eventually they all ran out of the room (after unlocking it) and I was free to gather the evidence. I didn't expect someone to be there when I came out from the drapes though.

"That was a good trick, da?" Russia greeted.

I stayed silent, in a way curious as to what he'd do. I still had my hood on.

"Who are you? You wouldn't happen to be a state would you? If you're not, we might have to fix that~" Russia stated grabbing his pipe.

"Yeah, ima state. Whatcha gonna do? Tell 'merica?" I asked hoping he wouldn't know who.

"Washy! You did it!" I heard Massy coming in.

"Yeah we did it. We got caught by Russia though." I stated pointing to Russia.

"Oh…"

"Do not worry, da? I quite enjoyed the display. Where did you get these realistic limbs?"

"If you like 'em, you can take 'em. We bought them at a Halloween store. There's plenty of stuff like that. Now, if you will allow us to leave so we don't get caught?" I informed him, hoping he wouldn't alarm the others.

Seeing him a give a smile and a small wave, I grabbed my camera and ran out, Massy close behind. That was close. Thankfully it was Russia and not someone else. We made it to DC's house and had a movie night. We then stayed in the room DC prepared, in case dad came looking. It was only a matter of time until he found out after all.

WA: That was a long one! I should make copies and give one to Massy and Hawaii. Maybe send one to Russia as a thank you gift.

Massy: he'd probably use it for black mail.

WA: Oh, good point. Let's keep Russia away from it then. Oh, and sorry for the lack of description on the reactions, but you can probably guess what the reactions were right? I can just imagine dad jumping into Uncle Canada's or England's arms just like Scooby Doo.

Massy: What was the letter?

WA: Oh, just something I said I'd pass on. It doesn't mean anything. ^^
