Chapter 17: Halloween House Party!

Before anything, here are the answers for the costumes.

Huey: Mummy

Dewey: Vampire Lord

Louie: Pennywise the Clown

Webby: Vampire Lady

Lena: Zombie Duck

Violet: Banshee

Gosalyn: Some serial killer with a chainsaw from some horror movie I don't know. Ouch

I dunno why I got only one answer. I expected more since I gave this opportunity to you all and it got wasted big time. Oh well, onto the chapter it is.

On the day of the party...

"C'mon guys! I can't be late for our first high school party especially when Halloween's around even though it's not today!" Dewey called out. He's dressed like some Vampire Lord with glow-in-the-dark fangs, a unique vampire cape and suit. Beside him is Webby dressed like some Lady Vampire with glow-in-the-dark fangs, a unique vampire dress and cape. "We look so bloody good in our costumes." Webby exclaimed. "Ha! Ha! Good one! Dewey exclaimed and then, they showed up. "Sorry we took so long. I dunno how many white bandages I used on Huey but at least, his eyes and mouth can be seen, he can breath properly and he's only wearing his underwear and not to mention I tied a knot to prevent his costume from being loose." Louie explained. "And at least I can walk properly too." Huey added as he walked his way down to Dewey and Webby because the group is at the main hall ready to go. As for Louie, "Yup, I'm dressed in the same costume as before! IT's gonna be really scary once I have my red balloons."

"Wait, where are your red balloons?" Webby asked. "Relax Webs, I passed them to Lena yesterday for safekeeping. When we meet outside Shard's house, she'll pass them to me." Louie replied as Scrooge, Donald, Della, Beakly and Duckworth showed up. "Aye teens these days. Goin to parties and drinkin plenty of soda." Scrooge exclaimed. "No need to worry sir, they can handle themselves at least." Duckworth assured to him. "Now be sure to be back by the latest midnight." Della told the teens as Donald and Beakly nodded in agreement. "Also, the mansion will be locked so simply find the key under the carpet in front of the door when you reach home." Beakly stated.

"Okay! See you later!" Webby cheered as the teens left the manor. Once they're gone, "I'll be at the houseboat grilling." Donald spoke first. "Wait, your houseboat's in the pool or something?" Della asked. "Nope. It's moved to a dock by the beach and near the manor. Scrooge had it built so that I can at least take my boat for some smooth-sailing and you often wanted to use the entire pool for your frequent night swims." Donald replied. "Oh yes.. It happened at tha start of October." Scrooge added. "Wow, things had changed." Della exclaimed.

Meanwhile...

A semi damaged limo arrived at the location. "I'll pick you guys at 11pm if possible because I'll be at the bar waiting." Launchpad told the teens. "Thanks Launchpad and next time, try not to crash onto a hotdog cart. That toucan who runs it nearly lost his source of income." Huey reminded the pilot as they got out of the limo and he drove off.

Now that they're here, "Wow...Shard's house is huge!" Louie exclaimed. Yes, the house is large. Lots of Halloween decorations and pumpkins with carved faces are all over his front yard. They can see some of their classmates and other students all heading in as, "Hey guys!" They looked behind to see Lena, Violet and Gosalyn as from a SUV, Ty Sabrewing just dropped the girls off. "Thanks for the lift Violet." Gosalyn thanked her. "No problem. You'll get it again when the party's over." Violet replied. "Nice!" She replied back and hi-5 each other as they met up with the triplets and Webby. "Nice costumes." Dewey complimented. "Thanks! Wow, you and Webby are so cute and bloody together." Gosalyn complimented back. Both smiled upon hearing it and, "UH!"

The strange feeling struck them again but it was gone after a few seconds. "Here's you red balloons greenie." Lena handed 7 of them to Louie. "Thanks and your costume makes you dead and hungry like a zombie." Yup, Lena's dressed like a zombie with painted feathers that are grey in colour and she wore clothes that are a bit torn and tattered but wears her socks and shoes full and undamaged. Violet's dressed like a banshee with a ghost white dress that is torn and tattered a bit and she has glow-in-the-dark paint on her face and finally, Gosalyn's dressed like some serial killer with a mask covering her face and she has her chainsaw she got from the gift shop yesterday. "Now let's spill some blood and gore!" She activated her chainsaw and struck it on Dewey. "AHHH! AHHHHH! I'm dying! Oh no! My arm's being severed!" Dewey acted out as the others laughed at this scene. "Okay are you guys done? We have a party to attend." Huey brought up as the gang headed in. There, 2 female chicken vamps are standing by the door checking invitations. When it's their turn, "You got the invite?" One of them asked hissing at them. Each of them showed them the invitations. "You're lucky you blood isn't gonna be our our fangs." The other one stated and showed them her fangs. (Remember that the vamps clique wear vampire fangs as their colours) And as a result, they are allowed in but, "Hold on handsome, you dress like one of us and it's like your blood is from royalty."

"Yeah, why not spend some time with us and maybe we can suck some blood together?"

"Ladies, I'd rather be with my best friend." Dewey got in as already, "Check this place out!" Louie exclaimed. Yup, everyone in their grade is there all hanging out, having fun and scaring each other fun. A kangaroo drama kid is dressed like a phantom with some black sheet covering him and with glow-in-the-dark paint on his face displaying a horrifying expression. A badger greaser is dressed like a pirate and a large jock is dressed like an astronaut. Not to mention that some wore costumes, others dress casually but no matter. Then, a raven vamp showed up to greet them. He wore the vampire costume with the fangs and, "Ah...Huey! Dewey! And where's Louie? I also see your other friends but not your brother."

"Right beside you Shard." Dewey answered as he looked to his right only to see red balloons. Then, Louie moved them aside to his left, gave out a creepy smile and spoke in a creepy voice. "Hiya Shardie. Do you want a red balloon?"

"GAH!" Shard backed away a bit. "Oh wait, Louie? Oh man! You got me good! I think I'll put you in my list."

"What list?" Louie asked. "A list of people with the best Halloween costumes! You're the 5th student in my list." Shard took out a clipboard hidden under his cape and wrote his name down. "Alright, F&B's in the dining room and kitchen, there are horror themed activities in my living room and backyard and you guys can go up or move around and hang out with anyone you know. Just don't make a mess in my house or else I'll suck all of your blood until you're dead. Have fun!" Shard went to check on the party status as, "Oh yeah! Party time!" Lena cheered as all split up.

Huey can be seen checking out the food and beverages. "Wow, bloody punch, batburgers, skull cookies, tombstone brownies, marshmallow bones and so many more?! Wow! How is Shard able to come up with horror-themed F&B!?" He took a glass and filled it with the drink and tasted it. "Bloody sweet!" He exclaimed. "I know right?" Beside him is a jock wearing a demon mask as he hiccupped a bit. "You look like you drank 5 glasses of blood."

"Yup! Can't resist how sweet it is!" The jock replied and, "As far as I know, it's actually red fruit punch mixed with a unique syrup that made us taste blood and it's sweet." Huey thought to himself as, "Can you fill my cup while I eat this monsteritto?"

"Uh sure." Huey filled his cup as he went to sample a batburger in which the burger patty is shaped like a bat on a bat-shaped bun.

Outside...

"What's everyone doing?" Gosalyn asked Lena. "I think they're shooting zombies which are actually target board in the appearance of zombies." Lena replied. "And over there, they're dunking their heads on some cauldron to grab an apple with their mouths." Violet added pointing at several students doing the activity. "Oh look! Some female vamps are doing face painting with glow-in-the-dark paint, who wants to become scarier?" Lena asked. "No thanks." Gosalyn replied. "I already had mine done earlier on." Violet added as Gosalyn started smirking. "Now for the fun part." All of a sudden, she approached several students and activated her chainsaw(Remember, it's fake but functional). "Oh shit! A serial killer!" Someone called out. "Cool! Let's see who can survive the longest without the serial killer shredding us! BEGIN!" Another exclaimed. Fun time for everyone as Gosalyn went chasing anyone she sees. Laughter can be heard also.

Back inside...

Dewey and Webby are sharing some snacks together in the living room when, "Hey."

"Leticia! Ennui!" Webby greeted them as Dewey noticed something. "It seems like due to your gothic appearance-"

"Yeah. Considered our Halloween costumes. Also applies to the vamps." Ennui explained as on a couch, they can see a gothic rooster and a vamp parrot in a middle of a discussion. "I thought you guys are rivals with the vamps?" Webby asked. "Only on Halloween, our cliques decided to go even with each other on this holiday. Once it's over, we're back to being bitter and hateful souls to each other." Leticia explained. "And if you're wondering who those guys are, the goth's name is Pierce and he's our leader. And the vamp known as Makowski is the leader of all the vamps."

"Okay...All the cliques have leaders now that I know something new." said Dewey. That's when Makowski noticed them as he excused himself for a few minutes and approached them. "I like your costumes." He spoke in a dark voice. "Did you work on it yourselves?"

"Uh...I guess?" Dewey replied. "Not bad. Especially the girl. She looks so hot. I wanna crown her to be my vampire queen." Makowski stated licking his beak. Webby was a bit nervous about his words as she stick close to Dewey clinging to his arm. And it happened. "Ow! It's here!" Dewey thought and, "What's wrong?" Ennui asked as Shard entered the room and, "Hey Shard! Where's the bathroom?"

"There's one beside the dining room." Shard pointed at the direction and Dewey ran off. "What's up with him?" Leticia asked Webby. "I wish I knew..." She replied.

As for Dewey, he found the bathroom and opened it to see, "Hey! Can't you see we're sharing our moment!" 2 students are inside making out. "Sorry. And you should have locked the door and not to mention I need to do a little business." Dewey apologized. "Oh really? Alright then. We're done here and you can use it." The couple left the bathroom as Dewey went inside and locked the door. "This is so messed up!" He spoke to himself quielty as he looked in the mirror. "I don't know why I feel it all the time when Webby and I always stick togehter, I iwsh I knew the answer and it gets more intensifying every moment." After that, he took a deep breath and hoping that he can keep cool and behave like a normal duck, he exited the bathroom and ran into Huey. "Hey Dewey! You should try those batburgers! They're really good!" Huey handed him one as Dewey took a bite. "Wow...cooked to perfection!" He described. "I know right!? I even can't resist the taste of his chocolate skull cookies!" Huey added as the brothers mingled and decided to get some more treats.

Somewhere...

Louie can be seen scaring some of the students with his creepiness and impersonation. "Dude, you live in the sewer or something?" A prefect joked with him. "Oh yes. Wanna gaze into my deadlights?" Louie joked back as they laughed about it. Then, someone tapped him and he looked behind. "Duncan!"

"Yo dude! This party rocks!" The hawk stated and he's dressed like a headless knight. "I can't see your head even though I recognize your voice." Louie stated. "Yeah, I'm wearing an extra large armour that covers my head so that I'll literally be headless. I'm also one of those students selected by Shard for some event."

"Event?' Louie asked. "Yeah. Best Halloween costume man. Winner gets an extra large goodie bag." Duncan revealed. "Cool. I'm also in the list." Louie revealed. "Nice. So anyway, how's your day?' Duncan asked. "Fine. Watched TV, worked on some uppercuts and leg sweeps." Louie replied as he recalled the janitor torturing him to hit hard for some time during the afternoon portion. "Okay...hey, let's go to the lounge on the second floor. Heard there's a treasure hunt game taking place in the dark and the only way to navigate through is the use of glow-in-the-dark paint on your hands." Duncan suggested. "Interesting but we better preserve our costumes so, I'll take off my gloves." said Louie. "And my gauntlets." Duncan then took them off. "How come you can do that without seeing?" Louie asked. "I just feel it and yeah, I'll poke my head out a few times to know where I'm going." Duncan replied. "Fair enough." Louie and Duncan then went upstairs.

Now the party's going well as horror music is being played the DJ from the Hip Hops clique and he's a third year student. "Yo, yo, yo! DJ Midas T on the haunted house peeps! Let's get freaky, scary and nightmarish for Halloween!" All cheered as dancing took place. Huey soon came across it and ran into Violet. "Well Huey, how's the party?"

"Pretty good! Our first time at a party and wow, I'm enjoying myself." Huey replied as they started dancing to the music. Then, Louie and Duncan showed up. "Where have you been?" Huey asked. "Glow-in-the-dark treasure hunt." Louie replied. "Unfortunately, we didn't find anything." Duncan added. "Wait, do we know you and how come you know Louie?" Huey asked. "Oh yes, your brother treated me to a drink after mine got knocked off by a dumb, stupid bully. Name's Duncan."

"Huey. And this is Violet." Huey introduced himself and her as they shook hands. "Anyway, I wanna try something new. Louie, you in?"

"Sure!"

"Count me in!" They looked to see Lena. "Ah yes, mischief is her thing. Let's get her involved." Louie suggested. "Alright. Let's see what she can do because I'll be the taskmaster, you 2 carry out the task."

Outside...

Several students are watching excitedly as Duncan gave Louie and Lena a brown paper bag. "Ew. What's that putrid and horrid stench?" Lena asked. "I took a huge dump and managed to get the shit inside the bag without staining my hands." Duncan replied as Louie took the hand carefully. "Here Lena." Duncan gave her a lighter. "Now see that house opposite Shard's? That's where the gym teacher Catson lives!"

"Our gym teacher!?" Louie and Lena gasped. "Whoa...I thought he's only teaching my class! Y106!" Duncan exclaimed surprisingly. "Sweet!" Louie and Duncan hi-5 each other and after that, "Okay Lena, let's get this over with."

"Oh yeah. Halloween prank time." Lena exclaimed as they crossed the road and reached the house. "No one's looking right?" Louie asked. "No one except the students dummy." Lena replied as they approached the front door stepping forth onto the porch. They can hear the sound of screaming and gunshots ringing out. "He's watching a horror movie. World War Z." Lena can tell as Louieput the bag of shit on the porch right in front of the door. Lena got the lighter and carefully set the brown paper bag on fire. Louie then rang the doorbell several time and then, "C'mon greenie! Let's leg it back to Shard's house!" She grabbed his hand and they hurried back inside with the rest of the students so that they can witness the prank from inside.

Now back there, the burning continues and the door opened. "What the?" Coach Catson panicked and stomped the burning bag only to put out the fire and, "AW WHAT THA FRICK!? I stained my precious shoes! I bought them last week at a good price! AHHHHHHHHH! IT STINKS! Oh it's someone did not shit for 6 weeks!? AGH!" He went inside shrieking all the way.

And back at Shard's house, all bursted out laughing. "You guys nailed him big time! Give it up for those 2!" Duncan declared as all cheered for Louie and Lena as they smiled at each other when Shard showed up. "What did I miss?" He asked. An explanation was given and, "Wow, that's so hardcore! Better than last year."

"Last year?" Lena asked. "Yeah. At some house where the goth known as Spike lives and he's a third year student now, he threw a party and executed a crazy prank by filling a bucket with piss. We all pitched it, he went to his neighbour's house, opened the door a bit, placed the bucket on top carefully, rang the doorbell a few times and ran off back to his house. We all watched as his neighbour opened the door and he got showered big time! We laughed non stop and I was there to see it! LOL!" Shard then looked at the time. The party started at 7 and now, the time is 9:30. "Louie, Duncan. I think it's time. Yo, Tori! Teri!" 2 female vamps that are freshmen also and are the same ones that were at the front door checking the invites showed up. "Get those people I selected to meet up with me. Competition time.

Around 10pm...

"Okay people! Time for some comparison on who has the scariest and coolest Halloween costume ever!" Shard announced via a mike he's holding. Everyone has all gathered at around including those outside. "I can't believe they played dead for so long while I'm going on a killing spree, Halloween style." Gosalyn thought as she met up with the gang. "So Louie's in right?"

"Indeed. He and 5 others had marvellous costumes to the point they are selected." Violet stated as back to Shard, "Bring them out!" Soon enough, 6 students emerged. "First, we got Duncan Hawkclaw. Freshman and he's headless because of his headless knight costume!" All cheered. "Next, Tammy Crump. Second year student and known to be an opera singer especially in her Viking costume!" All cheered at a female pig dressed in her costume. "Next, Chuck Gansley. Third year student and he's gonna blow like a boomer!" Yup, the rocker sure knows how to rock undead. "Something tells me he plays "Left 4 Dead 2" in his free time." Lena thought as Shard continued on. "Upon next, Skipper Nezbeak! Third year student so heroic he's got retractable claws like Wolverine!" All cheered as the greaser activated his claws and howled since he's a wolf. "After him is Mason Forestduck and he's got his hands on Frostmourne! Oh my! He has turned into the Lich King!" All cheered as the jock raised it in the air. "I bet he got addicted to Warcraft 3 in his free time." Dewey guessed. "You said it." Gosalyn agreed and, "And last for not least, Louie Duck! He's creepy, carries a devious smile and has red balloons for all of you! That's right! Pennywise the Clown has emerged from the sewers to this party!" Shard finished the introductions as all cheered but stopped to see the red balloons cover his face. Then, Louie made his move. "Hiya students. Do you want a red balloon?" All cheered louder as it begins.

Vamps went around asking students to do some voting one student at a time. "Well, I'm voting for Louie." Dewey stated as a female vamp handed him a paper and pen. He wrote Louie's name down on the paper and she kept it along with the pen and asked another student giving her another paper and the same pen. "Well, now I know how it goes." said Huey. "All of us voted for Louie right?" Webby asked. "Of course. He was the only one in our group selected. Definitely he'll win!" Gosalyn stated with confidence. "We'll see. The others dress pretty good especially the greaser and jock and even Duncan." Lena stated. "Indeed. There can only be one winner." Violet added.

As their discussion goes on, "Alright guys! I got the votes real fast and now, counting's still ongoing." Shard announced as all looked at him. "Anyone wanna hear a Halloween joke?" That's when a vamp showed up and whispered something to him. "Oh yeah! We got everything tallied up!" He announced on as another vamp handed him a clipboard. "Perfect! All these costumes are wonderful and scary! But, there can only one frickin winner and the winner is..." All ears are open...

"Louie Duck! He is the IT! He is the clown that brings fear and death! He is Pennywise the Clown!" Shard announced.

All cheered as Louie first released all his red balloons and did that signature clown dance in the movie. (I forgot how it goes but never mind) All cheered louder as Pierce and Makowski brought in the large goodie bag and handed it to Louie. All cheered as the party continues on.

Around 11pm...

"Thanks Shard for the party!"

"See ya at school on Monday!"

"Radical vamp dude!"

Comments filled the air as students left the house with miniature goodie bags thanking Shard for the Halloween party. Even those that did not win got those. Now at the front yard, the gang is waiting for Louie as he's chatting with him. "For a vamp who's pretty cool enough to host this party, I have decided to offer you a place in my clique." Louie revealed. "What? I can't do that! I can't leave my clique and join yours!" Shard replied. "Relax, you don't need to leave your clique." Louie assured to him. "So that means I'll be in 2 cliques. Looks kinds troublesome." Shard replied. "No it's not! My clique has others who are from other cliques but they joined my clique because they heard it was fun, no fighting among each other. They all get along regardless of what clique they belong to. I chose the best of the best to join my clique. We're the Besties Clique! Best friends regardless of where you're from, where you belong, it's like family in there!" Louie's words impressed Shard. "Where do I sign?"

While this was going on, "You guys had fun?" Huey asked as he ate a candy. "Yeah! One good way to celebrate Halloween in our adolescent age." said Dewey as he ate a chocolate bar. "Ooh! Gummy ducks!" Webby happily stuffed her face a bit as Lena chewed gum and Violet and Gosalyn licked lollipops. Soon enough, Louie met up with the group. "Shard is one of us!" He revealed. "Cool." Huey replied. "Not to mention he had some vamp record his party and send the video to Emma Glamour hoping that his Halloween party can be considered to be IT!"

"Yeah, it's gonne be considered to be on you." Dewey joked as all laughed when Launchpad drove in. "How's the party?"

"Sweet Launchpad!" Dewey replied as the triplets and Webby got in. "Don't worry, my dad's picking us soon!" Violet assured to them. "And I'm given a ride home by them!" Gosalyn added and used her chainsaw to strike Lena. "Die zombie!" She shouted as Lena laughed pretending to get sliced by her. All laughed along and after exchanging goodbyes, Launchpad drove them off after narrowly crashed onto a police officer riding his motorcycle.

30 minutes later...

Launchpad finally reached the manor and after parking it, he went to his garage to rest for the night while the teens went inside after Huey used the key he found under the carpet to unlock it. Inside, "Someone's awake." Webby pointed at the dining room. All entered to see, "Uncle Donald?"

"Oh hi boys! How's the party?" Donald is seen sitting on a chair eating a PB&J sandwich and drinking a glass of fresh milk as his midnight snack and he's watching cooking videos through his phone and the video is about Gordon Ramsay(who's a ram chef) demonstrating how to cook the perfect fried chicken. "It's great Uncle Donald. We had fun partying and Louie won the best Halloween costume and got this large goodie bag as first prize." Huey replied as Louie placed it on the table. It contains candy, snacks and lots of soda. "That's great boys and Webby! And wow, I am most impressed Louie! Della and others really would like to know more but all went to bed early while I remained here for some time watching cooking videos." Donald stated. "Well, better get the costumes off and get some shuteye."

"Good call Uncle...Donald..." Dewey's feeling tired now so, "Alright. I could use some shuteye. Goodnight Uncle Donald." said Louie. "Night boys, night Webby. After I watch this video, I'll also get some shuteye." said Donald. "Just don't stay up too late." Huey reminded him as the teens went upstairs and Donald continued his video while taking a bite of his sandwich.

So much work in the writing and so much planning on the party and stuff. Well, it was a good job I can say and I saw the Louie's Eleven episode and wow! Daisy Duck was a beauty! That dress looks hot! And Donald was so smitten by her throughout the episode! I love it! Rating? 12/10! Booyah!

Okay, a couple of references from the costume and a Gordon Ramsay parody was 'ironic'. Oh well, new chapter to work on now so stay healthy and safe guys! Woo-hoo!
