Now, Chapter Two

----- - ----- - -----

"Yuu, lets get going! We'll be late!" Miki shouted.

It was finally Halloween night, and Miki and Yuu had gotten their costumes ready and were about to leave.

Miki was going to be a ghoul, and Yuu Count Dracula. Miki sighed as Yuu tumbled down the stairs. His costume was very elaborate with a cape, vest, shirt, medallion and long, black pants. He had dyed his hair black and wore a set of fangs. Miki, on the other hand, wore a shredded cloak and a gauzy shawl with her face disappearing beneath a hood. The costumed couple headed out the door.

At the party, the guests were having a great time. Many people were there.

"Wow! Look Yuu!" There was a full buffet of ghoulish looking foods, gelatin mold looking like brains, blood-red punch, bone-shaped meringue, and more. In the center of the buffet was a large mummy head with glowing eyes. There was a full dance floor, and fog machines spread mist along the surface. Black banners were draped about, and hanging skeletons and many jacko-lanterns scattered around! The entire place had also been draped in cobwebs.

"Wow!" came Yuu's reply. "There are a lot of decorations!"

"Konichiwa, welcome to my house of terror Yuu-sensei and Miki-san!" They spun around. Suzu and Kei were standing to greet them. "Kei is helping me greet our guests." Suzu explained. "Be back in a second." Suzu ran off to greet some more guests at the door.

"Hmmm", said Miki, "You and Suzu are greeting your guests? Are you saying you're dating?" Kei scowled.

"No, she is just stalking me!" he snapped and pointed at Suzu. "I am not interested in her the way you think!" Miki smiled and narrowed her eyes. Kei blushed.

"C'mon, Miki lets go over there." Yuu said and dragged Miki away.

"Yuu! Wait!" Yuu dragged Miki by the arm over to the door. Meiko and Satoshi waved. Meiko was dressed as a witch with a broom and long robe with a hat and Satoshi as a skeleton with a large gleaming skull.

"Hi Miki!" Meiko said.

"Wassup' Yuu?" Miwa greeted. Miwa and Yuu and Miki and Meiko paired off. Suddenly, Miki felt a slap on the back.

"Hey!"

"Hey Ginta! Hey Arimi!" Miki and Meiko sad in unison.

"Hello Miki-chan. Hello Meiko-san." Arimi said, smiling. Arimi was dressed stunningly as Queen Guinevere, complete with a hoop skirt, a sparkling gown, and a curly hairpiece. Ginta wore a crown and a large robe and cape with a scepter. He was King Arthur Excalibur.

Ginta went to say hello to Miwa and Yuu and Arimi stayed with Miki and Meiko. The part began to start, and a ghostly waltz played by Kei on the piano started. The boys came and grabbed their dates and headed onto the dance floor.

"Wahh!" Miki shouted as Yuu dragged her to the floor. "You're supposed to ask first!"

As Satoshi and Meiko danced, Satoshi pulled in for a kiss. Meiko stepped on his foot purposely and Satoshi blushed.

With everyone dancing and partying, the night was going fine. But trouble would soon start.
