"Hey guys look at this," Aria said running into the open dorm room with a sheet of paper in her hands.
"What is it?" Melody held it in her hands. Her eyes widened once she read it. Luna looked up from the sheet music she was analyzing for music theory. "A band costume party?"
"There's even a costume contest," Aria cheered, raising her arms in the air.
"It says it's for both single and group," Melody read aloud before she moved it closer. "Also said there's a list we have to check our name off a list."
Luna opened her phone and checked her email. "Yeah, I got an email 'bout it dudes."
"We should enter the group costume contest, with Isaac and Ethan," Aria suggested with a smile. Melody glared at her for a bit. "What Tyler and Damon are doing a group costume."
"Did you forget what happened in high school?" Melody raised an eyebrow. "We spend some much time on costumes and the freaking band council chooses themselves to win the whole thing?"
"Wait, what?" Luna said straightening up a bit. "It's that loads unfair?"
"Yeah and no one ever stops them," Melody sighed.
"But if ya judge ya shouldn't compete." Luna pointed out.
"Maybe it will be different this year." Aria shrugged and smiled hopefully.
"Aria honey you have a lot to learn about how people act," Melody said placing a hand on Aria's shoulder.
"I know how about human behavior Isaac and I are in a class about it together about the whole subject." Aria crossed her arms and glared at her a little.
"I'd think we could do that dudes," Luna leaned back a little.
"Only for what the judges to freaking chose themselves to win?" Melody said glaring at Luna a bit.
"Or we could enter for fun" Luna suggested. "Ya know like most folks."
"Even if we did the band Halloween party is in one week. Where are we supposed to get costumes in one week?" Melody gestured to the sheet of paper.
"Oh, don't worry we'll think of something." Aria waved off the problem.
"I can't believe you guys talked into this," Melody said as the five friends waited outside the party.
"I can't believe you didn't vote for this," Aria said gesturing to the costumes.
"I'm sorry but who is going to know Greek music figures?" Melody asked gesturing to their costumes.
"I like them," Ethan said swaying a bit. "I think I'm a choice good for Orpheus. Don't you think so Isaac?"
"You sure you don't want to be Apollo?" Isaac said quietly. They soon made to the sign in sheet and walked into the building where the party was. Music was playing and dark purple lights decorated the hall.
"This is so much better than High School!" Aria cheered dragging Melody to the dance floor. Ethan ran behind them.
"I really think he should Apollo," Isaac whispered to Luna.
"Eh it's right Isaac," Luna leaned against the wall taking in the scene a bit. "But who's going to know Euterpe?"
"I know her she's one of the nine Muses. She's the goddess of music and lyric poetry." Isaac beamed as he said that and Luna laughed a little
"You said you read this stuff in your free time," Luna kept smiling as she said this. "You want to go on the dance floor?"
"I guess," Isaac said quietly.
"You don't have to," Luna pointed out.
"It's fine." The walked on and Luna started dancing to the Monster Bash song while Isaac stood there but swayed a little.
"Guess who," Someone clad in full armor asked Aria while covering her eyes.
"Oh, Tyler," Aria said but it appeared she was joking.
"What?" The person said and someone next to him also in armor laughed.
"Pssh I know it's you, Damon," Aria turned around and saw her boyfriend in full armor. "So this is your super secret costume. What is it?"
"We are crusaders," Tyler announced triumphantly as he wrapped his arm around Damon.
"Yes," Damon lifted Aria into the air and she looked surprised. "We shall convert you heathens!"
"I'll have you know I am Calliope the muse of epic poetry," Aria announced and gestured to Luna. "And that there is my sister Euterpe the goddess of music and our friend Harmonia the goddess of harmony."
"But you are not of the Holy Land." Damon dipped Aria a bit and she laughed. "So you are indeed a heathen."
"Gross guys," Melody stuck her tongue out and gagged a little.
"Maybe a kiss will persuade you?" Aria suggested jumping out of Damon's arms. Melody was prepared to gag again when Aria pecked him on the cheek.
"Nope."
"Oh, young love how I long for my lost one," Ethan was very much in character.
"I see you are your friends are Greek music deities and Orpheus," Tyler realized. He turned towards Isaac. "So Isaac is Apollo I guess."
"Yes." Isaac held up a cardboard fake instrument. "I have my signature lyre."
"I see." Tyler turned to Ethan. "You know Apollo had male lovers right?"
"Yes." Both Aria and Isaac said in sync.
"What!" Ethan's mouth dropped. Luna walked up to him.
"It's chill it's like acting," Luna said to cheer Ethan up.
"I know I played straight males before," Ethan sighed. "But I blew my chances."
"You can be Apollo," Isaac said sheepishly.
"Nah, keep it," Ethan shrugged it off. "I can play the tragic figure well. This adds to it."
Isaac just looked at his cardboard lyre. Aria and Damon decided to dance a bit to the song. After a bit of dancing, the group walked over to the snack bar. There were slices of pizza, soda, and many sweets. Everyone grabbed one slice of pizza and sat on the side.
"So what made you chose Greek music figures?" Damon asked as he ate his slice.
"Well wanted our costumes to show our music theme since we're in band," Aria started to explain. "But we didn't just want to be members of a famous band or something like that. So Ethan suggested that we be music Gods.
"But we couldn't find another male one," Melody mumbled and Aria shrugged.
"I think it cool," Luna said while eating her slice of pizza.
"You said you wanted to win the contest."
"Oh yeah, these are so better here," Damon wrapped his arm around Aria. "While most schools have a team of students judge, we actually have the band staff judge the contest."
"Wait your schools had students judge the contest?" Isaac said in shock. Most of them nodded. Luna just took a sip of her soda. "My school always had the teachers judge the costume contest."
"I guess your school was the exception," Melody said as she took a slow sip of her soda. Once everyone was done they returned to the dance floor.
"Hey, Luna enjoying the party?" Luna turned to see Dimitri there in a sailor jacket and sombrero for some reason.
"Hey, Dimitri, what ya suppose to be?" Luna asked hiding her confusion.
"I was going to ask the same thing to you."
"I'm one of the Greek Muses, Euterpe," Luna explained. "Now who are you?"
"He's one of the Three Aventureros," Sunni explained popping from being Dimitri. "Him, Luka and I did it together. I'm Miguel Pistols, the rooster from Mexico."
"I think I remember them from an old Wismey show. Wasn't Ronnie Duck in the band too?"
"That's who I am," Dimitri explained with a sigh but he still smiled.
"Luka is Antonio Santos the macaw!" Sunni said even more excited. "Oh man, I've wanted to dress as The Three Aventureros for song long."
"And make us watch the movie beforehand." Luka walked up with the rest of them.
"Because you guys needed context." Sunni crossed her arms.
"Eh doing as Ronnie wasn't my first choice but I don't regret it." Dimitri looked over at his. "It makes them happy."
The rest of the night went on well. There was group dancing, many party games, and even a slow dance. The best was the donut eating contest. Luna knew if Lana was here she would eat it in one bite. Damon competed and won for the sophomores. He sadly didn't win the whole thing. The next game was a mummy wrap contest and the freshman ended up winning. Finally, it was time for the costume contest. At first, the singles went and there was a lot of them. The groups had just as many people but it went quicker since they were in groups.
"Alright time to announce the winners of the group contest," Taylor announced to the band. "And third place goes to the crusaders."
Damon, Tyler, and their friends cheered at the news. Second place went to the Thre Adventureros and Sunni couldn't have been happier. First place went to a group of seniors who were dressed as trophies.
"Welp like I thought we didn't win," Melody said as the music kept playing.
"Who cares this was so much fun!" Aria cheered.
"Yeah group costume next year?" Luna suggested and course everyone said yes.
