Rule 30: Retire Costume Accessories With Their Respective Costumes
To make her Megatron costume authentic, Dani had purchased a set of red contact lenses to wear. To say that the costume had been successful was an understatement. Deliberately choosing to ignore the memories of the chaos that had ensued on Halloween, Dani slipped the contacts in and admired them in the mirror. She really liked how they made my eyes look.
Stepping out of her room, she suddenly realized just how bad of an idea that this had been. The eerie red color really freaked out some of the 'Bots; most notably a certain trigger happy weapons specialist. Every Autobot that saw the girl was convinced that she had switched sides to the Decepticons.
Jumping to this, in their processors, logical conclusion they decided that she was a threat. They reacted on instinct and did what they did whenever they were confronted with a Decepticon threat; they started shooting…again. Once again mass mayhem was happening, due to a really stupid decision on Dani's part.
The teen spent the next three hours dodging projectiles, hiding and shouting in a vain attempt to reason with the freaked out 'Bots. In the end she hastily removed the contacts and stomped on them as she stared down the weapons of several Autobots. After several moments of tense silence they were convinced that her loyalties were still with them and resumed their normal daily routines. She slunk back to my room to recover from her unplanned workout, ducking underneath the weight of several highly annoyed glares from Autobots and humans alike. Dani decided that she really needed to stop putting her life in danger for the sake of vanity.
