xxShadowSpiritsxx: Hello, again! I think I'll start a collection of short stories, just like this one. Each chapter will be a different short story and "Spirits of the Dead" will act as the title of the book/collection of stories. Tell me your thoughts on this. Anyways, here's a short fic about a few YuGiOh characters' adventures on Halloween. Enjoy! Oh, and remember to review after!

SPIRITS OF THE DEAD
I: Fatal Night
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The sky was a dark midnight black and the only sources of light were the ghostly lit pumpkins along the stairs of the shadowy houses near by.
Three teenagers snuck into the eerie forest on the other side of the road, thinking it would be a fun way to spend their Halloween. They were aware that there was a cemetery through the woods, but once they stepped into the jungle of darkness, the younger silver-haired boy got scared. He pleaded for them to stop before there was any trouble. The older two responded by attempting to persuade him that everything was safe. However, being the extremely cautious boy that he was, without a doubt, he turned back and headed for the oh so comforting light.
"Guess you were right when you said your hikari would chicken out."
"Of course I know. I am him. He is me. I know his deepest feelings, and it's so easy to read his thoughts." He paused as the night crept on. "Now that he's out of our way, we can be alone." He looked seriously at the taller blonde. "You, me, and the darkness."
They both knew the young one was really just slowing them down so the two ventured on. They were not fazed by his intimidating comments.
Through the gloomy trees they went, trying not to trip over the jagged roots. Shadows created the eternal darkness of the forest. Reaching the end, the brave ones leaped up and over the sturdy chain fence that separated them from their destination. They landed with a slight thump on the padded grass.
The blonde glanced around. It seemed as if they were alone... so far. Nothing but the silhouettes of gravestones. She started worrying as the moon recovered from the passing clouds and its light mysteriously illuminated the cemetery. Her body tensed up and she started to panic. She shook from tension and the cool night breeze. Begging to leave, she felt something strange creeping around them. She dared not to turn around. The yami was anxious to find out what was out there, but the girl kept complaining. She wondered why, of all days possible, they had to choose Halloween to visit the spirits of the dead.
More and more darkness grew as clouds covered the moon once again. The night became heavy, like the air was somehow... alive.
The two turned around slowly in fear, for what they saw left their mouths hanging wide open...

xxShadowSpiritsxx: Just to let you know, this is one of those stories with a cliffhanger, but doesn't continue on. It's supposed to leave you in suspense, so don't expect a new chapter. Just let your imagination fill in the rest of the story! Well, hope you liked it. Please send me your reviews! I'd like some feedback on this so my writing can improve in the future. Thanks!
