Halloween Special
October 31, the night of scares and terror. Down at the academy everyone get ready for the annual holiday. The best time of the year, free candy, scares, and dressing up.
Karel started to sing a song he heard the other day. "This is Halloween, This is Halloween…" He was creating a room dedicated to Halloween. Vuren opened the door, but was immediately stopped by Decorations.
"Karel, why are you putting these things up everywhere?" Vuren ducked under a paper Pumpkin. She got on her bed, which was next to Bora's bed. "It's not just you. Ruby, Nora, Yang, even Bora are all going crazy about this holiday. What is Halloween even?" Karel smirked, and remembered that Halloween wasn't something they had back in their galaxy. "It's a holiday where you try to scare each other, and dress up as something. You go around and ask strangers for candy."
"That seems very childish"
"Is childish bad?" Bora asked as she walked out. She walked in the dorm and got her scroll. "I bet we can even scare you Vuren."
Vuren laughed "Like you can scare me. I can still see, and I can see better than all of you."
"I guess you can say that, but that doesn't mean that we can't scare you." Bora walked out the door and Karel saw Blake in the hall waiting for Bora. They left the room and walked into the RWBY dorm. Karel sat on his bed. "I'm trying to come up with something that Bora and I can go as. Got any ideas?"
"Why are you dressing up?" Bora looked confused
"What do you mean? I want to dress up. Beacon's even throwing a Halloween Party with the best costume. We have single costumes, Duos, and team costumes. I'm hoping that Bora and I could win the Duo. We have some ideas. We could dress up as Teachers, gender bend of each other, or team leaders. I was leaning towards the teacher route."
"Which teachers?" Vuren went down the list of teachers in her head. Not many that she's meet who they could go as together.
"That would be up to Bora who I dress as, but she would be Goodwitch." Karel patted his hip and didn't feel his lightsaber.
"Where did I put my lightsaber?" Karel looked around, and then turned around to see Bora holding his lightsaber. "Hey there Jedi, if we were fighting, you'd be dead." She smiled. She tossed the lightsaber to Karel, and he caught it. "I think I have the perfect idea. We would be Ozpin and Goodwitch" She had the thought in her head of what they would look like together.
"I think you two would make a great couple." Vuren said. She laid back down on her bed. Karel and Bora said nothing. "Why aren't you saying anything?" Vuren sat up; she turned her head to the two. "You're a thing?!"
"Quiet, or do you want everyone to know. The door is open." Bora said holding her hand over Vuren's mouth
"I don't think master will approve of that Karel." Vuren said.
"Well we don't tell her, and besides, on this planet the Jedi were allowed to have relationships. I have the data on my side for that." Karel said. "So let's change the subject. The costumes…"
"Yeah, amazing Segway." Yang laughed. She was walking past the door, which was still open. "The best possible Segway." She smirked
"What do you want Yang? Shouldn't you be with your team or something?" Karel said.
"Well now that you ask it I should be. I found out the perfect way to get our costumes figured out fairly. I made this custom die." Yang held out the die
"Your team only has four people. A die has six faces."
"And that's why I have the two top faces being roll again. Our team will switch around styles. Want to come and find out who's who?" Yang said. Vuren shook her head, and did Karel. Bora on the other hand said "Yeah, sure I'd like to see." So they went to team RWBY's dorm. When they got to the RWBY Dorm everyone was thinking about what they would go as for the contest. "Guys, I have the perfect thing, this Die. It has the color that represents us all. This is how we decide on who we're going to be."
"Sure why not. What is the prize anyway?" Blake said
"That's a really good question, and only team leaders were told that answer. Ruby, if you may…"
"The prize is candy, or course, and a free homework pass for one whole month." Ruby said. Everyone looked at Ruby. "So, yeah, we have to win this contest. I agree with Yang's plan. Weiss…?"
"If you're asking if I want to do this, of course, and no homework will defiantly help, they've been working us half to death since school started back up." Weiss looked over at their shared desk looking at each of their own stacks of homework. "But with this prize every team is going to be going for the prize. This year's going to be hard to win."
"That's why my idea is great" Yang said. Blake was standing next to Yang and took the die. "So we just roll it and the color it lands on, that's who we dress as?" She looked at the top sides "And if we get a top then we roll again. So what if we land on our own color we roll again?"
"Yeah, that's exactly how you do this." Yang said.
"And why is Bora here? Not that we don't like you."
"I invited her." Bora waved her hand at the group. Blake tossed the die in her hand and it landed on red, Ruby.
"So, I got Ruby. We'll have to make adjustments to the costume. I can't dress exactly like her." Blake looked at Ruby and smiled.
"My turn!" Ruby said. She grabbed the die and rolled it. It landed on roll again. "Come on…" She rolled again, and it landed on red "Seriously?" She rolled again and landed on Roll again "I have terrible Luck." The whole team was gigging at this point. She rolled the die again, and it finally landed on someone else. White "Weiss, looks like I got you covered." She gave Weiss her thumbs up.
"It's my turn." Weiss said. She grabbed the die. "I hope I have better luck than our leader." She said. She rolled the Die, and it landed on Yellow. "I have to dress like Yang? No offense, but I doubt that I would fit any of your cloths." Yang looked at her "Not saying anything, just pointing out a fact."
"I guess I got Blake by default. Alright ladies, let's start planning. Bora if you don't mind, you know we don't want anyone else seeing our costumes before they're ready." Yang said, Bora shook her head and saw the members of team JNPR talking about what they're going to be. She went back into her room and grabbed Karel "Alright jedi, it's time to get the things we need for our costumes. " Karel got up and followed Bora. They walked out of the dorms and ran into Ozpin
"Getting ready for the contest are you two?" Ozpin was holding a box.
"Yeah actually professor, we were just heading out. Have a happy Halloween professor." Bora said. She dragged Karel past the headmaster.
"It's good to see them happy." He walked to the entrance to Beacon. "Again." Ozpin walked to the elevator. Ozpin saw something on his scroll, Goodwitch sending him a picture of a knight. "No."
Karel found a scarf, and Bora found almost the exact outfit of Goodwitch before he even found anything. He got everything, and they paid for the cloths. The store was designed for the day full with pumpkins and skulls. "They are definitely excited for Halloween. Do they have any candy left?" Bora said. Karel found c lot of chocolate still left
"I don't think we need to go out tonight." He said. He took all the remaining candy, filling a large basket and paid for it.
The teens went back to the dorm with the candy and got ready for the party. He got dressed in his Ozpin outfit, with the glasses, and green clothes. Bora quickly got into her Goodwitch costume, and the two of them looked at the other.
"you're looking good headmaster."
"and you Goodwitch."
"Let's go to the party. We're totally going to win this contest." Vuren interrupted
"And what am I supposed to do while you two are gone? Twiddle my thumbs." Vuren said.
"you want to come and watch the contest?" Karel said.
"Karel, look at me." He turned to Vuren while she pulled up her cloth and waved her hand in front of her eyes.
"I forgot you were blind. Do you have to do that?" He said, grabbing his blue lightsaber. Vuren shook her head.
"I guess that I have to stay here and eat all your candy." She said shrugging her shoulders.
"You're coming with us." Bora said. She grabbed her by the arm and started to walk to the party.
At the party it seemed like this whole holiday threw up on the room. "Spooky" decorations were everywhere. The music was loud, and the large room was filled with everyone and everything. The tables of food had candies of all kinds, red punch (or as the label said "Blood") and guts, or spaghetti and other colored pastas. There were also games like apple bobbing, donut eating contests where you have to kneel to eat at it, photo booths, and three that took place outside. A Zombie chase, a haunted house, and a haunted hay ride. When team RWBY walked dressed as each other the party has gone full swing, and everyone was doing one of the things. They were one of the last teams to get to the party, mainly because of fixing the clothing between the group. It wasn't hard with Ruby, since Weiss was in her general size. Blake on the other hand had to really fix Ruby's dress to better fit her. Weiss was in Yang's clothes, but she had to fix a certain area of her clothes. Yang enjoyed wearing Blake's clothes. They had signed up earlier so they didn't have to worry about the signing up, and because of that Ozpin walked to the front of the stage, and the music stopped. He talked to the student body. "Alright everyone, I hope that you are having a good time. Now let us start our costume contest. Remember 1st place gets one month off of homework, 2nd gets two weeks, and 3rd gets one week. That is in each category. We have our judges, the staff, and a few volunteer students". Ruby saw Team CFVY wave there hand. "The student judges get a week off of homework as thanks."
The first round was singles. Team JNPR's leader Jaune, and Phyrra were in this place. Phyrra was a knight from the ancient Vale. Jaune was a Knight Captain from Vale. Phyrra and Jaune beat out zombies, ghosts, grimm, vampires, elves, etc. They were the last two when Phyrra won the last vote. It was a short vote since everyone was voted on all at once. Nora and Ren Didn't do any off the contests, but decided to help others.
The doubles started off with Bora and Karel going against a pair of undead. They one and went on. Next was White fang, then Grimm, then undead white fang. The doubles was the weakest competition since a number of the doubles didn't work off of each other.
Team RWBY was leading in the last round, the Teams. Each team went up one by one and showed off their costumes. Having to play off each other was one of the only ways to get past the first few rounds. The teams they went against were many, but laziness was abundant with the students. Team RWBY went to the last round of the teams, and they saw there competition, and they were all dressed as staff. The judges gave the victory to team RWBY.
Vuren won third place in singles. She did it just to do something, and now she doesn't need to do homework. She thought the say as a success, and actually enjoyed herself. The rest of the evening was spent entertaining each other. Jaune and Yang went against each other in the donut eating contest, with her winning, Karel and Bora going on the hay ride, Phyrra and Jaune going in the haunted mansion, Team CFVY and RWBY went to the zombie chase, Ren and Nora did something that Vuren didn't see. She got some "Blood" and decided to drink it when Roni came to her. "This is certainly a nice thing that these people do."
"Yeah, I enjoy it. I'm glad we're here. I'm glad we didn't crash on one of those back water world that we went to during the clone wars."
"Here, here." Roni said getting some "blood" herself.
"Happy Halloween"
