As everyone enjoys the Halloween party, Nikita watches over them to make sure everything's in order. She really needed everything to go well since this was the first party she was hosting. She couldn't let anything bad happen at her party, especially on Halloween which is her favorite holiday. Not even Muscle Man's pranks were going to stop her from hosting this Halloween party.
"Hey, Nikki. This party is amazing." Alya said. "Yeah. Thanks for inviting us to your party on Halloween." Nino said. "Anything for my friends." Nikita said.
She was happy that her friends were enjoying her party. So long as they're happy, she can enjoy the party herself. Surely nothing will go wrong this Halloween. But not all is what it seems as Halloween is the holiday of spooks and frights.
"Has anyone seen Rainbow Dash?" Twilight asked. "She's over by the punch bowl." Nikita said. "Oh. Thanks, Nikki." Twilight said. "No problem." Nikita said.
Rainbow Dash was at the punch bowl getting something to drink. Pranking people surely made her a little exhausted, so juice would help her stay quenched. Muscle Man and Hi Five Ghost were talking to some of the female partygoers.
"Well, at least they're not pulling any more pranks on anyone." Nikita said.
But looks can be deceiving: Muscle Man was a master at pranks and his best friend Hi Five Ghost was his partner in crime. They almost always did everything together, including pranking people. Their pranks usually range from annoying to just plain cruel.
"Hey, Nikki!" Mordecai called out. "Mordecai! Rigby!" Nikita called out. "Over here, at the snack table." Rigby said.
Nikita walked over to the snack table where Mordecai and Rigby were. The two friends were looking at different desserts to see which one they'll pick. Rigby grabbed a plate and gathered a bunch of different snacks onto the plate. Mordecai only grabbed a marshmallow rice krispies treat and took a bite out of it.
"Mmm! Great snacks." He said. "Yeah, these are amazing." Rigby said. "Thanks. I made them all myself." Nikita said.
She was really proud of herself for making all the desserts for the Halloween party.
"So we heard that you had to tell Muscle Man off for pranking again." Mordecai said. "Yeah. He was up to his old tricks again." Nikita said. "Muscle Man's pranks are really annoying." Rigby said. "Tell me about it." Mordecai said.
They both often found themselves the victims of Muscle Man's pranks. They hated being pranked by Muscle Man and didn't find his pranks funny at all. The two had pulled a few pranks themselves, but theirs weren't as cruel as Muscle Man's.
"Man, I hate it when Muscle Man pulls one of his cruel jokes on us." Rigby said. "I know, right? He can be so cruel sometimes." Nikita said. "Well, we can't let him ruin our fun. Let's just go back to enjoying the party." Mordecai said. "Yeah, you're right." Rigby said.
At least they had some common sense on not letting Muscle Man's tricks get the better of them. They knew that if they gave in to Muscle Man then he wins. Benson, Skips, and Pops came over to the snack table and greeted Nikita.
"What a wonderful Halloween party!" Pops exclaimed. "Yeah, I'm really impressed with your work." Benson said. "Thanks." Nikita said.
Benson was really impressed with how much effort Nikita put into making this Halloween party. He had thrown many Halloween parties at the park himself. This year he was going to take a break from work and enjoy the party hosted by Nikita. Skips and Pops were also enjoying themselves at the party, especially Pops.
"I love what you've done with the place. Absolutely marvelous!" He said. "I agree, you've really outdid yourself this Halloween." Skips said. "Well, you know me: I love the holiday season and Halloween is my favorite holiday." Nikita said.
It was true: Halloween really was Nikita's favorite holiday. She loved dressing up in costumes, going trick-or-treating, attending Halloween parties, watching Halloween movies and specials, and listening to Halloween music. She enjoyed the other holidays as well, but Halloween was her number 1 favorite.
"I love Halloween so much." Nikita said. "Me too. I like dressing up in spooky costumes." Cooper said. "I love all the decorations." Poppy said. "But the best part is all the free candy!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed joyously.
Nikita giggled at Pinkie Pie's comment, she knew that the excitable pink pony had a huge sweet tooth. Pinkie Pie loved sweets so much that she'd even go trick-or-treating with the young ponies, even though she's too old to be trick-or-treating.
"I think you've had enough sweets for tonight, Pinkie." Twilight said. "You're never too old to have candy." Pinkie Pie said as she began eating more candy.
Twilight shook her head as her friends gathered around together. Spike grabbed a few snacks from the table and Applejack poured some more juice in the punch bowl. The Snack Pack also gathered together to get some more snacks from the table.
"Here you are, Mr. Dinkles. Some chocolate cake." Biggie said as he grabbed a small piece to feed to his pet worm. "I love all these Halloween treats!" Cooper exclaimed. "So do I! This is the best marshmallow bar I've ever tasted." Smidge said.
Nikita was really glad that her troll and pony friends were enjoying the treats she made for the party. She took cooking classes at school and even watched the cooking channel on TV. She carefully read the ingredients so that she'd know what to put in the recipes. Nikita did her best to make her desserts as delicious as possible.
"I'm glad you're all having fun at my party." She said. "Are you kidding? We wouldn't miss it for the world." Spike said.
Suddenly, Nikita heard a distressful sound coming from one of the party guests. It came from Finn, who was searching for BMO. Dipper and Mabel were searching for their friend Soos, who had gone missing from the party. Nikita went over to see what was going on, she didn't want anything to happen that'll ruin her Halloween party.
"What's going on?" She asked. "BMO's missing." Finn said. "Soos is gone too." Dipper said. "We can't find him anywhere." Mabel said. "I wonder where they went." Nikita pondered. "Let's split up and see if we can find them."
She went over to the houses in the neighborhood to see if Soos or BMO were hiding behind them. Finn and the Pines twins checked around the party, asking the other guests if they've seen their friends. But they couldn't find them anywhere and they were starting to get worried.
"Did you guys find them?" Nikita asked. "No, we searched everywhere." Dipper said.
They were starting to get worried since their friends had gone missing.
"Did you find your friends?" Skips asked. "No. We looked everywhere at the party." Nikita said. "This just isn't like them at all." Dipper said. "We've got to keep searching. They couldn't have gone that far." Finn said.
Suddenly, Benson came over to them with Mordecai and Rigby following behind him.
"Have any of you seen Muscle Man and Hi Five Ghost?" He asked. "No, why?" Nikita asked. "I can't find them anywhere. We looked all over the place." Benson said.
This concerned Nikita: could this be another one of Muscle Man's pranks? She knew that she had to find out.
