Party Crashers

The night of Halloween has finally come, a night that no soul would ever forget. The streets were packed with children of all ages, dressed as monsters, ghouls and goblins. Lights and decorations of blown up vampires, joke tombstones, carved pumpkins, and bags full of candy and sugary goods, littered the night. The sky was beautiful, big and oh so dark. The perfect setting for a Halloween so stupendous and wickedly horrendous, it will be one to remember for all of time. Especially for the Tamers.

There night time fun however was not involving bags stocked full of candy, knocking on doors repeating trick or treat. Takato, Rika, Henry, Jeri, Kazu, and Kenta, along with all of their Digimon pals. Were spending countless minutes dressing themselves up in the most creative, and stunning costumes available. All heading for the big Halloween monster mash dance their school was hosting, and so was Marcus. Unknown to the other children, the poor soul was conjuring up his own little party.

Using his black magic and twisted powerful spells of demonic energy into the air, creating destructive monster after hideous creature. And with the night being Halloween and, evil demons being a common sight to see on this of all nights. The Digimon Wizard's dastardly demons should have no problem entering the dance. "GAHHH" Takato shrieked as he leapt right out of his thick, black snow boots. He turned around and suddenly bulged his eyes right out of his sockets, "Guilmon?!?".

The red dinosaur Digimon was in fact right there in front of him, giggling like a new born child as he scarfed down some pumpkin shaped cookies from the snack table. Takato replied nervously "Guilmon what are you doing here? If anyone finds out you're a real Digimon" "Hey AWESOME costume man" a cowboy kid said. Takato blinked and shrugged to his Digimon pal "Forget what I just said buddy, ha, ha". Guilmon nodded staring at his tamer in his sleek, and inventive knight costume.

Colored with dark jade green sleeves and a leathery brown colored vest, along with matching gloves, thick snow boots, and a most adorable little dark blue cape. Guilmon sniffed the cape and smirked "Nice costume Takatomon lot better then all the other kids here, smells good too". Takato laughed and smiled looking down at his suit, replying "Thanks I knew mom could touch it up to make it look even spiffier". Another push of the door, and out came another wonderfully dressed tamer.

Terriermon couldn't help but laugh uncontrollably at Henry's outfit, giggling furiously "I don't care what you say; you still look like a brown stain". Henry grunted at him with a sigh filled frown, he came dressed as Sherlock Holmes. Dressed in born church shoes, dark green socks, a light tanned brown jacket, a dark blue fancy sweater, the weirdo hat, and of course a pipe. Terriermon laughed even more at that. Henry turned his grey eyes to the reader sneering, "It's JUST BUBBLES okay?".

Another pair of shoes clicked in loudly, more accurately black dark heels. Henry and Terrirermon turned to see who it was, only to think they both need glasses. The breathlessly beautiful girl wore dark purple leather like pants on her slim legs, stopping short at her mid calf to her black high heeled shoes. Continuing upwards on her chest, she wore a black storm blue shirt stopping just over her chest. She had a blood red neckband over her throat, sporting a black leather wild looking jacket.

Finger nails and toenails from her bare toes, wiggling through the black heeled strapped shoes were painted a gothic black. "RIKA?" Henry gasped with his jaw hanging out like a ton of bricks, his eyes never been so shocked or staggered. It was Rika all right, dressed as dark and oh so lovely vampire. Henry swallowed a large gulp down his throat, cheeks flustering a wild blushing red color immediately. Rika slowly made her way towards Henry. He tried to hide the blush as he watched her.

Henry's Thoughts

Oh man, oh man, oh MAN who'd have ever thought that there was any attraction to Rika at all. I'm feeling like a steamed clam just looking at her. Even if she doesn't feel the same way about me, or even like me as a human being. One thing is for sure, SHE'S HOT!!!

Rika smirked "So it looks like you made it here too huh Henry Holmes?", Henry blinked curiously as he looked down at his costume and just sheepishly laughed. "Oh yeah wouldn't have missed it for the world, but you're an even bigger shock Rika. I thought you hated Halloween and all the dressing up stuff, I mean it's a great new look for you" Rika growled at Henry. She violently ran up to him and grabbed his collar and angrily jerked his face to hers, Henry gulped a pale blue at her face.

The pale pinkish make up on her cheeks boiling off with her furious rage, Rika screamed at his face "What does that supposed to mean pal HUH, HUH. Is there a problem with me coming here? WELL? Can't a girl trick or treat for god's sakes?" she shrieked. Henry weakly stretched his neck out to manage a weak reply, "Not at all I just meant it's a very ACK attractive change for you EEP" Rika dropped him immediately. Her cheeks blushed deeper then her own tomato red hair from that.

"Uh gee uh thanks" Rika murmured softly as she walked past Henry, simply too stunned and clearly to shy to even reply anything clearly. Terrirermon shrugged and said "Looks like there really is a chocolate center at the end of every tootsie pop". "HIYYYYA" Kazu screamed, lunging his plastic sword into an invisible enemy. He grinned and slashed again, to the left, to the right, he laughed "Bad ass Kazu that's me". Kenta grumbled to him yanking the bandages away from his glasses vision.

It was clear that the dopey Kenta was dressed up as a mummy, rolled up in toilet paper no doubt. Kazu however was so inspired by his life threatening encounter with the 3 monsters at the super market, he decided to borrow their appearance for a costume. Kazu chuckled "Don't moan and groan at me mummy moron, it's not my fault you didn't think of dressing up as Piratetron". Kenta stomped his foot as he said "Oh give me a break Kazu. You always get the good costumes & I end up looking like a goof".

Kazu sighed an annoyed groan at his whimpering, "MORON there were 3 monsters not one, not my fault you didn't want to dress up as the kitty or Knarf". Suddenly their conversation was interrupted at the sound of pittering, pattering feet, they turned and spotted Jeri coming towards them. Dressed beautifully in her lovely fairy princess outfit, with sparkling silver white wings. Along with a light shining jade green dress, a gold yellow trimmed short skirt, white leg stockings, and a shiny silver little crown.

"Hey guys have you seen Takato there's something I gotta show him" Jeri asked sweetly, Kenta pointed his toilet paper dripping fingers to the punch bowl. Where in fact Takato was there with Guilmon, getting some punch from the school vendor. Jeri nodded with a smile "Thanks guys by the way what were you talking about before?", Kazu shrugged and leaned lazily against the wall replying "Just some monster stuff. You know the 3 wackos that attacked us yesterday, and that fish guy got away Jeri".

She stared baffled at them as she raised up one of her hands in confusion, holding Knarf right up his blue gilled neck. "You mean this guy?" Jeri asked, both Kazu and Kenta face faulted in shock. They immediately leapt right to the little imp's face unbelievably shocked at this, it's the same monster that attacked the super market. Kazu stammered "Jeri where the hell did you find this guy?", she turned her brown haired head to the side as she pointed to the doors. "At the doorways" she said.

The sneaky little flounder mutant grumbled and struggled anxiously, his gills fluttering sweat drops nervously down. If these kids kept poking at and stalling him, he'd never be able to finish his job. "And master doesn't like to be kept waiting so if you'll excuse me GAH" Knarf said, reaching behind his back for a plunger. He jammed it over Jeri's young face, she screamed at it with a muffled out voice. Knarf freed himself from her grasp, before slamming Kazu and Kenta with plungers too.

Immediately flapping his finned feet Knarf ran from the kids at top speed, continuing his secret mission. Planting odd star fish suction cup like devices on all the doors. "One cup of punch please" Takato said politely to the female vendor, Guilmon sniffed the drink with a smile and said "Make that two please" the woman nodded. Just as the green fluid was rushed into the plastic cup, Takato raised it for a hefty drink. Only to have it spilled onto the floor, as he was strangled like a rag doll by Kazu's babbling.

"TROUBLE Plunger, trap, fish guy, Digimon, Takato HELP" Kazu frantically shouted, Takato growled slapping his face hard to stop him from shaking him. Takato replied "Kazu get your marbles back for Pete's sake, what are you babbling about? What fish guy? Start making sense" Kazu explained about finding Knarf. Soon seeing how dire this situation was becoming, Takato decided to find the other tamers. No sooner did the kids leave the punch stand, the woman revealed herself. It was Sarah.

The beautiful young woman hissed her icy purple lips coldly at the running boys, "Dammit those little bastards are here and they brought those digital freaks too. And anywhere where Digimon are concerned Marcus monster creeps are sure to follow. First that big blue one eyed goon he sent after me, now he thinks he's David Copperfield from Hell. I gotta split before aw shit...I mean uh HI there thirsty?" Sarah said cheerfully, remembering she had to keep her identity from everyone.

Posing as a punch serving helper for this Halloween party was the only way she could find work to get money for an apartment. Ever since Marcus attacked her with this wizard bit, she's been evicted right out of her own house. Sarah raised up a pink filled juice cup saying "Okay here you are and Happy HalloAH". In seconds she dropped the cup in shock, purple nailed fingers jittering like a pair of old skeleton bones. Fear boiling behind her eye shadow and make up, futilely hiding her simply horrified face.

The child that had asked for punch wasn't a child at all, it wasn't even human. Crougher, the one eyed, blue ogre monster sized cave creep that the Tamers killed the other day was back. And he was standing right in front of her with drooling tusks. Trembling like a leaf Sarah gulped as she back away, uttering nervously "H-h-h-hi". Crougher bashed his blue furry forearms onto the table sides, wrapping his claws around the huge punch bowl. He immediately lifted the whole bowl up to his jaws.

Watching half amazed and half in horror, remembering all too well that this brutal beast was here to assassinate her last time. Sarah widened her eyes, watching the pink punch drain down from the huge bowl. Emptying its massive contents directly down the guzzling, gurgling and gulping throat of Crougher. Sarah stammered "He drank a whole night's worth of punch in 10 seconds..dam". The lumbering blue giant however turned away from Sarah without a care, he didn't even care that he saw her.

There was no doubt in Sarah's mind that Marcus was behind the creation of that monster, and there was also no doubt that something big was going down tonight. Otherwise Crougher would have continued to try and crush her into paste. Meanwhile Knarf continued to snicker as he planted more of his barnacle, star fish like devices. Sticking them to every door, exit, window, and form of escape in the building. Snickering wet gilled fangs under his goggles, "Master is gonna rock the house".

All the doors were barred with those odd fish like devices, all except one. That very door opened up as a group of dark shadowed individuals made their way inside. Lead by what appeared to be a young boy, in a dark and truly twisted costume. Mr. Morty one of the head chaperones of the dance turned his glasses to the entrees, dressed as a Frankenstein monster. He approached them with an annoying smile as he said "Well Happy Halloween guys, what can I do you for?", the dark boy spoke up to him.

"Were the Midnight Riders, the Halloween rock band your school ordered for your party. Don't worry it won't take long to set up our gear" Mr. Morty smiled with a grin and nodded, "Well must have missed a memo but go ahead guys the stage is yours". The boy grinned and motioned for the other dark shadows to follow him, they followed obediently making their way up to the stage. Renamon suddenly flashed before Rika uttering quietly, "Rika we've got party crashers, familiar ones too".

Rika screamed and gasped clinging her heart tightly, panting for breath along with the other boys. Takato snapped at Renamon "DON'T DO THAT, a heart attack is the last thing we need tonight sheesh". Blinking her purple eyes Rika learned her red head ears to Renamon, whispering to her "So who's the pain in the ass this time?". Renamon pointed her white paw claw fingers, out right from her purple cuffed hand. The gang turned their questioning eyes to the left, only to gasp in unbelievable shock.

Right behind the band of shadows that was making their way onto the stage, was the sickening sight of 4 familiar monster faces. Crougher, Piratetron, Meeouch, and Knarf as well, planting further under water items upon the doorways. The kids watched in hiding horror, nervously sweating their brows at this unfortunate development. Henry chewed his pipe nervously as he spoke, "This is bad guys really, REALLY bad. If any of those monster creeps try anything, they'll be too many people caught in their path".

Takato nodded replying "Plus we can't fight them without anyone knowing about Guilmon and the others". Kazu and Kenta looked to each other in confusion, they asked the Tamers quietly "But I thought you guys said you killed those guys". Rika hissed coldly, clenching her Digivice tightly in her hand. "Apparently we didn't kill them enough but don't worry, this time we'll make em wish they stayed dead". Takato said nervously "Let's wait and see, we beat em once we can do it again (gulp) I hope".
