So without further ado, here's the final chapter in Just A Halloween Party Or Is It?
Disclaimer: I don't own HSM.
Sharpay, Gabriella, and Taylor continued their crawl away from the noise.
" Are we getting closer to it, or farther away?" Sharpay asked.
" I don't know, just keep crawling," Taylor urged.
" Are we even getting away from the noise?" Chad questioned.
" I don't know, just keep going," Ryan said.
The three girls kept crawling, and crawling, and…crawling.
" Almost there," Gabriella exclaimed.
Chad, Troy, and Ryan all stood in the living room.
" Where should we go now?" Troy asked.
" Where else is there to go?" Chad stated.
" Um, girls, I don't think the vent can support all this weight," Taylor said.
" Nonsense. What are we all together? Less than 300 pounds. I think this gown weighs more than me," Gabriella replied.
" I think Taylor's right," Sharpay agreed.
" What are you two talking about?" Gabriella asked. Then the vent started to creak.
" What was that?" Ryan questioned referring to the creaking noise.
" I have no idea," Troy responded.
" You don't think someone broke in, do you?" Chad said.
" How could they? Everything's locked," Ryan responded.
" Just don't move," Taylor warned. " Even the slightest movement will make the vent creak even more."
" Oh no," Sharpay whispered.
" What?" Gabriella asked.
" I think I have to sneeze."
" We need to find the girls," Chad reminded.
" We know, we know," Troy said.
" So where do we go?" Ryan questioned.
" Just don't think about it Sharpay," Gabriella urged.
" Aaa…aaa."
" Hold it in," Taylor suggested.
"Aaa..aaa."
" You can't hold a sneeze in," Gabriela rebutted, " I don't think it's even physically possible."
" Gabriella, I was just saying," Taylor replied.
" Aaa…aaa."
" You really don't have to contradict everything I say because I have a higher grade in Science than you do," Taylor commented.
" I can believe you're bringing that up!" Gabriella said.
"Aaa…aaa."
" Then tell me you don't want to prove me wrong."
" I don't Taylor. You're my best friend. Yeah, I may get jealous of you sometimes, but I'm always happy for you," Gabriella stated.
" Really?" Taylor asked.
" Of course!"
The girls hugged tightly until…
" ACHOOOOOO!" Sharpay sneezed. The vent gave away and the girls fell… right on top of the boys.
The moonlight shone through the windows, illuminating the whole room, so everyone could see. The six were sprawled on the living room floor, where it all started.
" Ouch."
" Ow."
" Owie."
" My back."
" My leg."
" My back and my leg."
" Wait a minute, Gabi, is that you?" Troy asked suddenly.
" Yes. Troy?" Gabriella responded.
" Yeah, it's me."
Gabriella moved over so she was right next to Troy. " Troy, I'm so happy to see you," she said.
" Me too. I would hug you right now, but I don't have any feeling in my arms," he admitted.
" It's ok," she stated giving him a light kiss. " I'm just happy you're here."
" Ryan, are you alright?" Sharpay asked.
" Yeah, I'm ok," Ryan replied.
" Listen. I'm sorry for bossing you around so much. I don't blame you for wanting to get away from me. I'm a horrible sister. I just want to thank you for being there so long for me, even though I've been a mega jerk to you," Sharpay stated.
" Sharpay, I'm the one who should be sorry. We're family. We should stick together," Ryan said.
" Can you forgive me?" Sharpay asked.
" Only if you can forgive me," Ryan replied. They both hugged in forgiveness knowing everything would be alright.
" Chad, where are you?" Taylor wondered looking around.
" I'm under you," he grunted.
" Chad, I'm so sorry!" she said getting off of him.
" It's fine. Your cat's tail helped slow down your fall."
" Oh, Chad." Taylor hugged him tightly, almost crying.
" It's ok Taylor, I'm right here."
" And I'm glad."
" So am I. I'd be more glad if you were my girlfriend."
Taylor pulled back from the hug in surprise. " Girlfriend? But I thought… you wanted…I …."
" Taylor, I know we both agreed to be just more than friends, but you're way more than that to me. I want to say I'm your boyfriend and I want to say you're my girlfriend because it wouldn't fell right any other way," Chad persuaded.
Taylor was speechless. " Chad, I would love to be your girlfriend!" she exclaimed.
" Are you serious?"
" Yes!"
" Hey everyone, she said yes!" Chad shouted.
" That's great," Gabriella congratulated.
" Yeah, and me and Sharpay are talking again," Ryan stated.
" Wonderful," Taylor said.
" And I can feel my arms again," Troy commented.
" Even that's good news," Sharpay responded.
Suddenly the lights turned back on in the condo. Everyone stood up.
" Looks like everything is back to normal," Ryan concluded. Everyone instantly heard a big crash. The door was forced open by a crew of firefighters. They rushed inside to inspect the six.
" Are you kids alright?" a concerned firefighter asked.
" Yeah, now we are," Troy said.
" Well your parents are waiting for you outside. You should go and see them," he suggested.
The six slowly filed outside the house to see their respective parents all waiting for them in the condominium's parking lot. Finally they were reunited with their parents once more.
Then a shadowy figure stepped out from behind the couch in the Evan's condo.
" So, scaring them didn't work. And locking them here, or making loud noises," it stated. The figure walked out of the condo.
" Guess I'll have to get them next time," it said evilly as it looked out at the six hugging their parents in the parking lot.
Yeah, so the mysterious figure is the one who caused all the mayhem. Unfortunately, you won't know who the figure is until the sequel. Hehe. But I hope not knowing that piece of information won't prevent you from giving me a review. Thank you to everyone who read this story and giving me helpful reviews. I hope you enjoyed my first story. Please review and be nice.
