Halloween, a day of horror and sweet candy treats. Children wear costumes; may it be witches, mummies or monsters. They go house to house and ask for treats of dozen of assorted candies. People tell one another either made up or real life ghost stories. And more importantly, the best night to play Hyakumonogatari Kaidankai.
For a certain yellow tentacled octopus-of-a-teacher, this day is somewhat a day for his freedom. Since just simply stating that he is wearing a "costume" will be enough to not raise suspicions from the people. And also, a day to make candy stash within a night.
Today is the 30th of October, a day before Halloween and a certain yellow octopus is quite ecstatic about the thought of trick or treating in mach 20. But somehow looking upon his students, they didn't seem that much excited about the holiday.
Well of course, they are probably occupied, brainstorming on a way to kill him before March.
Time was ticking, he doesn't really want the day to end. Korosensei's never-faltering grin grew wider. A silent laugh resonated inside his mind as he walked in front of his class.
"Nurufufufufu~ Before Sensei dismisses you all for today..may Sensei ask a question?"
Confused but mostly suspicious,(especially because his face shows that he is planning something)his students hesitantly said okay.
"What day is it tomorrow?" Korosensei started.
A hand was raised among the students. It was non other than the polite Ritsu.
"It will be the 31st of October Korosensei."
A red circle was shown on Korosensei's face, indicating that Ritsu's answer was correct.
"Correct! Now then, what kind of holiday is there during the 31st of October?"
"Cut the lame act Korosensei~" A voice of a male student was heard leaving Korosensei in silence. The boy did not even answer the octopus' question.
"Nyuuaaah-! W-what act? S-sensei is definitely not a-acting..." Korosensei fidgeted with his tentacles as he whistle even avoiding eye contact.
"So obvious..." The whole class thought.
The boy also known as Karma Akabane raised his feet off the ground and placed it atop his desk. Leaning back on his chair with both hands behind his head, he pondered his teacher about what it was really scheming.
"We all know that you've got something up your sleeve for Halloween and you want us involved mainly to get candy. So just spill it."
Right after Karma finished his statement, Korosensei quickly started crying crocodile tears.
The class sweatdrop at the sudden drama. Korosensei kept on blabbering about stuff like:
"Sensei just wants my precious students to enjoy their youth!"
"Sensei just wants all of you to take a break and have fun!"
"Sensei's not really after your candy!"
Things like that.
"Just get on with it." Someone said.
Wiping his fake tears Korosensei quickly composed himself and went back on being energetic.
"Sensei just wanted to say that we should throw a Halloween Party tomorrow night! Since it'll be a Friday there won't a school day after which means everyone can fool around till they drop!"
Upon hearing his suggestion many students quickly got lured into his candy scam.
Everyone became excited upon the idea.
But before they can even rejoice they were cut off by the yellow octopus himself.
"BUT- Everyone must wear a costume and bring treats or they'll get tricked."
They were a bit hesitant since they already know the real motive behind the party. But then again using his own greed (which are sweets) against him can bring many assassination attempts. Besides, they might get candy along the way.
So without further ado, the so-called "Halloween Party" was planned in motion.
"But don't we have school tomorrow during the day?" A certain raven head asked herself.
"I kind of expected that we'll hold the party at our class. It's pretty boring and cheap although we're not that rich to rent a place for the party either way." Kayano sighed finishing her disappointment.
She was walking home alongside her two best friends, discussing about the sudden Halloween Bash.
The sky was laced with a mixture of orange to red and was slowly turning to dark blue as the sun sunk down.
The party was too sudden that it took a little while until every each student has a role to do. Things like who'll bring mostly all the food and candies, and who'll decorate the room and things like organizing the games and such.
Too rushed and hectic.
Kayano was putted in the cooking team, Kanzaki was on the game team while Okuda was part of the decor team.
The three girls sighed.
A thought suddenly ran through Okuda Manami's head.
"I-i don't really celebrate Halloween that much. My main problem is not having a c-costume to wear tomorrow night."
Since Manami was only focused only into Science she didn't really had the chance to celebrate the upcoming holiday even back when she was a kid.
Kanzaki quickly patted the twin braided girl's shoulder to reassure her that she got her back.
"Don't worry Okuda-chan. I know a place where we can rent our costumes for tomorrow night."
The raven head beamed the class' beauty a thankful smile with Kayano beside her who jumped in excitement.
Before the day could even end, the three girls proceeded to go unto the said costume rental shop.
Date: October 31st, Halloween.
"Wow Nagisa, you really are prepared."
Sugino Tomohito stared blankly at his blue headed friend, sarcasm was evident in his voice. The mentioned twintail was only wearing a pair of wolf ears with a matching fluffy tail that goes along with his school uniform.
He didn't even tried to even wear a different shirt.
"Well, I can say the same to you and Kayano actually lent me these." Nagisa retorted back eyeing his baseball friend.
Sugino wore his uniform but the difference was he had bandages wrapped around his head and a small plastic ax that seemed to be stuck on his scalp. Fake blood trickling down his face and unto his supposed to be clean white shirt.
"Maybe I should have thought this through. My mom will kill me after she sees my fake-bloodstained shirt." Sugino commented as a cold sweat rundown his forehead. Scratching the back of his neck, the two males laughed at his situation.
The two males then scanned the room and was awed for the nth time.
"But man. The decor team really outdid themselves. Just look at the place. We're like in a haunted house or something." Sugino commented appreciating the hard work his classmates did.
Their classroom really did turn into something haunted. The lights were replaced with colored dimmer ones to make the room darker. Spider webs were hanging everywhere.
There are even jars of internal organs lined up near the window(which definitely did not belong to a human) that Okuda brought to make things more spookier. Jack-o-lanterns were placed on the floor, a coffin was placed at the back with a fake skeleton inside and beside it was a big pot that produces smoke.
The cooking team placed a long table full of different varieties of candies, pastries, drinks and food at the side so that there are more space left for them to play.
There weren't that many students yet since they are probably busy with their costumes and giving their sweet offerings to a certain yellow octopus, who is actually dressed like a literal takoyaki served in a paper plate.
As Nagisa and Sugino kept chatting a figure approached them.
"You guys look pumped up." It said.
As soon as the two recognized the person's voice they were shocked at his appearance.
"K-karma?!" The two blue heads blurted out.
Karma chuckled at the reactions he got from the two. Sugino was speechless and Nagisa looked at him with wide eyes.
"I-i was kinda expecting you to wear something cool or scary..." Somehow Sugino was having a gut feeling that there was a reason behind this.
"Oh this? I just grabbed this back at the chemistry lab and I found a marker on the way here. Besides, I'm planning on doing something tonight and this costume will be a great advantage."
A hint of mischief was evident on Karma's words. Nagisa sweatdrop at Karma's spot on costume and tried asking him what he was planning to do later. Keyword = tried.
Nothing slip out of Karma that can leak his scheme.
Nagisa putted Karma's shenanigans aside and just enjoyed the party.
Putting Nagisa, Sugino and Karma aside. The rest of their classmates did put a though on their costumes. Some even got a bucket full of candy on the way to school.
Examples are: Isogai who was dressed like a prince, Fuwa who crossdressed as Monkey D. Luffy, Maehara in a vampire costume and lastly Kanzaki who is a zombie nurse.
Some were dressed like mermaids, cat girls, dogs, maids, super heroes, zombies, mummies and many more.
But two girls were missing the fun. A certain twin braided girl and a green head with cat ear pigtails.
"Come on Okuda-chan! Go inside already."
"B-but this costume is reall-kyaah!"
A loud thud was heard right in front of the door.
Everyone's attention was now fixated on a certain science lover.
Her face was beat red from embarrassment especially now that everyone is staring at her. She stumbled in the doorway because she was fighting back from Kayano who kept pushing her to go inside the classroom. She composed herself as she fixed her attire, after that she and Kayano got inside the class.
Manami wore a black frilly witch dress, a big witch hat and held a staff to match her costume. To be honest, she looked more like a cute magical girl rather than a witch. Whilst Kayano was dressed like a magical girl herself.
Everyone then started to grub on the food and their sweets as well. While the students were having fun themselves, Korosensei was secretly stealing sweets at the speed of mach 20 to full his candy stashes.
Bitch-sensei was there as well, wearing a sexy devil costume while Karasuma was still at his suit but he was wearing those pierced arrow headband.
As time pass by the students even forgot about their assassinations attempts and only cared about getting cavities for the night. They played games like twister, uno, truth or dare and many more until they sugar crashed.
"Oh! There will be a fireworks display any minute now! Let's watch before we go home." one suggested and the rest obliged.
Manami left herself behind and tried to clean the mess they all did, to reduce the work after.
Everyone was probably tired from the party because not even a single one of them decided to climb the roof to watch the fireworks. They just rushed to the window and watch in awe.
Manami giggled as she observe her classmates. She then felt a tap on her shoulder that made her look from behind. It was a white cloth.
More likely, it was a cute classic white sheet ghost that had an expression drawn on it by a marker similar to this: (≡ ▽ ≡)
"Um..."
She has been wandering ever since she got inside the room. Who was the person behind the white cloth? It didn't talk and socialize that much during the whole party.
She heard a voice chuckled behind the thin cloth and it made her heart skip a beat. Her cheeks started to take in the color of red.
She clenched the cloth in front of her and tried lifting it up so she could see the face behind the white cloth. Her heart drummed, she was sure it was him.
"Karma-kun..."
She whispered his name breathless. His mercury eyes locked gaze with her amethyst ones. Her breath hitched when she realised the distance between them were only inches apart.
"Trick or Treat, Okuda-san~"
Karma held the hem of the cloth up, making sure it wont fall. He saw how confusion consumed her after he said those words. Seconds later, she got what he meant but was unsure of her answer to him.
"U-um... I don't have a single c-candy left.. A-and u-umm...there are no foods left either..eto..."
Karma chuckled once more before giving a reply to the flustered girl.
"I guess I have to trick you then Okuda-san."
"T-trick me?"
Karma nodded a smile etched in his lips.
"Yep. That's the rule during Halloween. When you don't give a candy to someone who said 'Trick or Treat' you'll get tricked." The red head trickster explained his voice only a whisper.
"E-eh?"
"Don't worry Okuda-san. My trick wont hurt, all you have to do is close your eyes and stay still." He reassured.
"U-um okay..." Manami hesitantly closed her eyes. Her heart almost leaped out from her insides when she felt Karma's subtle breathing fanned her red beat face.
Slowly, Karma's hold onto the cloth loosened making it fall, engulfing them both inside, hiding them from anyone's vision.
And so, as the time the loudest firework boomed in the sky was the same time his lips collided with hers.
Extended Ending:
"Eto...Karma-kun, trick or treat?"
It sounded more like a question rather than a greeting. For some reason their classmates are still watching the fireworks display and no one dared to look back.
"Hmm~ Gomen Okuda-san~ I don't have any candy with me either."
Amused by the sudden trick or treating, he played along with the innocent chemist even though he actually stole one of Korosensei's stashes.
Her face exploded to redness, hesitating if she wanted to continue her plan.
"A-ah.. Then I have to t-trick you as well K-karma-kun..."
A smile formed in Karma's lips. For once Manami took the initiative to try something and it made him engrossed about her 'trick' for him.
"Ok then.. What will it be?" He asked.
Their conversation stayed as a whisper since they didn't want to get anyone's attention.
Manami tilted her head up to lock gaze with Karma. Her mind was a mess, is she really going to do it?
She shook her head inwardly, now is the chance to tell him, and if it were to slip away she doesn't know when will be the next time she can say this lines ever again.
"I...I...I-i like Karma-kun..W-will you please go out with me?"
Karma was completely surprised that Okuda just confessed to him after they shared a kiss.
"Heh~ What a sly trick you got there Okuda-san..." He smiled while caressing her cheek.
"I'd love too."
For the second time that night they shared a kiss once more under the white cloth with fireworks soaring to the night sky.
Extra:
"Somebody stole one of Sensei's candy stashes!" A yellow octopus shouted in horror as he counted the stashes once more to check.
Still the same, it was only nine and one was gone.
"These are 3 months worth of candy and without that one sack Sensei will die in hunger!"
"That's good right?" The whole class sweatdrop.
It was Monday and the class had enough of his whining and accusations. Korosensei searched the whole school grounds but he never found the missing one and because of that Korosensei's voice intensified, crying his heart out for the missing sack full of candies.
"Karma-kun!" Manami eyed Karma who smiled in return.
"Well, he secretly stole it from us in the first place so isn't fine if I stole it back."
"Where is it?"
"In my room. Some are in the fridge."
Manami smiled, and he said he didn't have candy that night.
