Nedzu grinned as he fixed his tie in the mirror.
"Papa!" Izuku yelled out in greeting before entering through the open bathroom door.
Nedzu looked over and hid his little laugh behind his paw. Izuku was dressed like him. Izuku was wearing a little suit that resembled his uncannily, his fluffy hair was pulled up under his little bear like ears. He had little gloves on to represent his paws and a short tail sticking out of the bottom end if his trousers.
"Hello, little mouse. Are you ready to go?" Nedzu asked.
"Yeah!" Izuku replied excited, Nedzu ruffled his curly floor before turning back to the doorway.
"I was born ready for this." Touya added, poking his head out to reveal his own look for the night. Touya decided on being a male version of Sally with his skin covered in green and stitches all around. He wore patchwork clothes just like Sally with the repeated pattern of the cloth.
"I'm ready for the candy!" Natsuo exclaimed. He wore a costume similar to the movie character Beetlejuice. His black and white striped suit was perfectly tailored. His eyes were surrounded by dark eyeshadow around his eyes and a grin to complete the look. His white hair was smothered in green dye from temporary green hair dye spray made for Halloween.
"What time are we heading out?" Fuyumi questioned, fixing her skirt. She was dressed like a fairy or like an elf. She had ear accessories on to make her ears pointy at the ear. She wore a light pale blue kimono dress. Her hair cascading down in curls from her bun. Her neck was adorned with a faux crystal choker that hangs down the front of her dress. Her shoes were simple platform sandals that were actually really comfortable to wear.
"Mmm" Shoto hummed, appearing out from his elder sister's legs. He was dressed like a little angel and devil cross. His white side had a little halo cocked to the side of his head. His right side had on silver and white colored clothes all the way down to his white sneakers. His left side had a dark maroon horn on his forehead. He had on dark red and black clothes all the way down to his black sneakers.
"All ready in my end. And I can only imagine everyone else is ready."
"Yes!" The five voices of the children rang out to him. Shoto and Izuku giggled, Izuku rushing over to him to stand by him.
Nedzu hummed, "Alright, everyone report to the living room so I can make sure everything is in order before we venture out."
The children all headed to spend time in his apartment den while Nedzu got to work making sure the lights were off and other necessities. Making sure the security system will protect everything inside while he was away.
With a nod, he shut his bedroom door with Rei's car keys in hand. He wanted her to relax for the night, so he promised to take her kids out trick-or-treating with him and Izuku. She ended up giving him her car keys since her car could actually handle the amount of children.
"All set. Let's head out everyone. I have quite the evening landed." Nedzu said while he led them out the front door, locking it after Izuku came through last.
"What do you have planned?" Fuyumi asked as she buckled her seatbelt in her mother's minivan that Nedzu was getting ready to drive. Nedzu had Power Loader make an adaptable booster seat to reach the pedals and steering wheel of every vehicle.
Nedzu explained, "I'm going to visit some heroes in the area not that far away. We will visit some companies or houses of many hero colleagues I have. Some you may already know."
Eraser tiredly opened his door to the faces of the children. He rubbed his eyes and got out the assorted candies he got earlier that day since he knew Nedzu would probably do something like this. He never really gave out candy to trick-or treaters, but he will give an exception to them. Before they left, Izuku gave him a hug which was gladly reciprocated.
Tensei opened the door wide excitedly with Tenya dressed up beside him. Tenya hugged his friends Shoto and Izuku before going back to his brother's side. He was dressed just like his brother in their hero suit. Tensei handed over licorice whips into their bags with a huge smile.
Midnight answered the door in a sweater dress very happily since she gets to see her little honorary nephews and niece. She gave them a whole bunch of random candies with little plastic toys as well.
Present Mic was just finishing up his spooky hour at the radio station when they came. He just dressed casually when they came in the front door. Safe to say, he was excited to see them there. He hugged Shoto and Izuku to spin them around before handing them a bunch of crunchy candies.
Snipe was in his usual cowboy get-up when he greeted them at his door.
Vlad King opened the doors of his company in a very vampiric cape. He gruffest before giving out the children multiple types chocolate candies.
Ectoplasm opened up the door in his hero's suit because he recently returned from his patrol about twenty minutes ago, but he hasn't changed out of suit just yet. He gave the children a few full size bars to spoil them since he didn't get many trick or treaters in near his apartment.
Cementoss opened the door to his house smiling calmly at the group. He handed out many assorted treats like fruit flavored candies.
Recovery Girl answered the door with a yawn before smiling at the happy children who came to visit her. She had just arrived back from the children's hospital from visiting the sick to speed up their healing process before reading them a spooky story. Thankfully, she had plenty enough gummy bears leftover from her visit for the children.
After that, Nedzu took to some suburban areas to hit up some civilians homes that were in safe neighborhoods. While visiting some doors, the people confused him for a children from his height and gave him candy as well. He received the candy slightly miffed since they couldn't tell he was an adult, but he wasn't that mad since he got free candy out of the deal.
When the night was getting less young and the young children look tired, Nedzu decided it was time to head back. Touya grabbed onto Natsuo as Fuyumi grabbed Shoto. Nedzu led back Izuku to the car by holding his hand the entire way. With all the children accounted for, Nedzu took back to his apartment to teach the kids about trading.
"So, we can just trade one candy for the other."
"Yes! You se, if you don't like a candy, but another person does..you can simply switch for a candy you like better. As long as both parties agree to it. But the bigger the candy, the bigger the trade. For example, a full size candy bar is worth three fun-size bars. A fair trading deal, and you can decline the trade deal if you don't think it's fair or want to keep your candy to yourself."
"Okay, got it. Fuyumi, I trade you these candy corn bags if you give me your sour gummies." Natsuo offered, holding up three bags of his candy corn.
Fuyumi nodded quickly, "You got a deal." Fuyumi grabbed her mini bags of sour gummies and switched them for the bags of candy corn.
Izuku suggested, holding up a saltwater taffy, "Shoto, can I have your spider ring and then you can have my taffy?"
Shoto nodded, placing the spider ring on Izuku's finger before plopping the taffy into his mouth. He smiled when he tasted the sweet strawberry flavor that the taffy had.
So the trading continued with Nedzu giving his own advice during some parts when the children didn't know what to trade for something.
Touya ended up trading away his chocolate taffy to Fuyumi for her cinnamon candies. Shoto traded his licorice to Natsuo for some more saltwater taffies. Izuku offered two of his regular lollipops for a gumball centered lollipop.
With the trading confusing, Nedzu set up the futons in the living room for the children's sleepover.
While they continued trading, Nedzu started heading back to his room when Touya looked over. "What are you going to do?"
"I'm going to go criticize fictional serial killers while I make myself have sugar high from all these candies I acquired." Nedzu replied, dragging a sack behind him to his bedroom door. "Have a good night everybody."
"Oh, this plot is so stupid." Nedzu criticized as he dug his hands into the chocolates while he watched the end credits of the movie. "There wasn't even any suspense! Anyone could spot that he was the killer from the beginning."
"Hey papa?" Izuku greeted, popping his curly hair from the side of Nedzu's bed.
Nedzu looked over curiously, "Oh, yes? What do you need, little mouse?"
"Oh, um, do you want to trade your full size Milky Way for my three mini Twix?" Izuku asked, showing his fun-size chocolate bars.
Nedzu smiled. "Throw in a licorice whip and I'll call it a deal."
