HOLIDAY ONESHOT: Halloween!
NOTE: This Chapter has NOTHING to do with the main storyline, and it will not begin or end in any specific part. It is simply written to showcase the halloween antics of our heroes/heroines! Please enjoy!
"I dont want to do this!" I moan for the thousandth time.
"Come on, it'll be fun!"
"Show us the costume!"
"You can't wuss out, Serena!"
The others all call back from the room.
I'm standing in the bathroom of our room at the Cerulean PokeCenter, staring at myself in the mirror.
I turn, staring at my costume.
This year for Halloween, I have decided to dress up as a Mismagius, a ghost type pokemon from Sinnoh.
The large, purple hat with pink rims sits comfortably atop my head, leaving lots of room for my hair to flow down to my shoulders. The dress is a beautiful, lace-back dress with long sleeves, coming down in the same pink-rimmed, purple, that almost reach the floor. It fits my form perfectly, and opens into an almost ball-gown esque bottom. A necklace sits perfectly along my collar bone, large red gems shimmering nicely. I'm also wearing a pair of high-heeled boots that match the color scheme, and open in a leather fall pattern by the knee.
I turn again, sighing, as i finally open the door and walk out.
"Oh, wow..." Bill gasps, taking a step back.
"What hes TRYING to say, is damn girl, you look hot!" Gardenia laughs as she turns me, spinning me to see the lace-backing.
Ash covers his eyes when he see's my back, but Misty stands, confused.
"Um, i think your missing a piece!" She points, going to cover it up.
"No, silly! It's lace! It's supposed to be see through!" Candice laughs, buttoning the top of the back of my dress.
"So? It's not stupid?" I ask, smiling Mareepishly as i spin.
"You look amazing!" Bill rushes forward, kissing me gently.
"Now, go take it off! It's Ash's turn next!" Gardenia pushes me back into the bathroom, where i quickly change into my shorts and tank-top again.
Today is Halloween!
Usually, I would never participate, WAY too much candy, but the younger kids are so excited that i had to join in on the fun. Bill is taking us all to this haunted pokemon maze, on Route 24 that some volunteers and the Sensational Sisters set up.
It doesnt take ash long to come out, and when he does, i must say, I am QUITE surprised.
Ash decided to dress up as a Machop this year, and he even made his own costume. He's wearing a light blue body suit that fits just a LITTLE to tight, and he has three yellow strips, clipped to his hair, which has been combed and gelled back.
All in all, it's an AMAZING costume, for a homemade product.
"Well?" He asks, turning slightly, and we all clap in astonishment.
"That is AMAZING, Ash!" Misty claps even harder when Ash flexes his muscles, which, for an eleven year old, are surprisingly well pronounced.
He blushes, ducking back into the bathroom when he sees Misty's red face.
Gardenia gives me a look, and i cant hold back my laugh.
I catch myself right away, but Misty turns to me.
"Whats so funny?" She huffs, and that makes me laugh even harder.
Ash quickly returns, hair dripping wet as he towel dries it.
Giving me one last look, Misty heads in next with her bag.
"I wonder what she's going to be?" Ash wonders aloud, and i have to agree with him.
Misty was one of the only costumes that we had NO idea about, she went to her sisters for help choosing and never went shopping with us. Me, Candice, Gardenia, and even Maylene, who got the holiday off and is spending it with us, got ours shipped in a few months ago from Sinnoh.
The door creaks open a hair.
"No laughing, okay?" She says timidly, and we all reassure her we wont.
Then she steps out.
"Oh my god, Misty! Your..." Candice trails off, and Maylene finishes for her.
"Stunning!"
She walks out of the bathroom, and i can see her costume in the light. Although, it's not really a costume, more of a gown... something only a princess would wear.
Her long, orange hair, which I had only ever seen up in a side-pony falls down, just below her shoulders, and i can see teal and pink beads weaved through her hair. She is wearing a dress that stops just below her knees, and ends in a beautiful lace pattern. The dress itself is a gorgeous hue of navy blue, with thin strips of a much lighter blue across the bottom, and a bright pink bow, tied right around the waist, and tilted a bit to the side. The sleeve's of the dress come right down to her wrist, with small clasps that tie to her index fingers, and when she opens her arms, it almost looks like she has wings. She's also wearing small blue flats, that have straps up to her knees.
"What is that?" I gasp, gently feeling the fabric on the edge of the dress.
"It's a pokemon from Sinnoh, actually." She smiles, and Maylene puts her hand to her mouth, tears in her eyes.
"Lumineon." Gardenia whispers, and Misty nods, smiling.
"It's a water type, so i thought, why not?" She twirls, and the whole dress sparkles.
Ash steps up, and grabs Misty's hand.
"You... um..."
"Yes, Ash?" She giggles.
"You look... um... very beautiful..." He stutters, then sits down quickly, hiding his face under his hat.
Misty grins from ear to ear, and twirls back into the bathroom.
Bill leans down and whispers something into Ash's ear, and he nods, still blushing.
Bill leans over to me when he sees my skeptical look.
"Ash likes Misty, i'm giving him pointers." He whispers, and I shake my head, smiling.
"And what makes you such a womanizer?"
"Hey, i'm with you, aren't I?" I shake my head as he kisses me and leans back.
Misty heads back to her seat, bag in hand, and Maylene goes in next.
Maylene is always wearing sweat pants and tank-tops, due to her fighting all the time, so when she walks out in her costume, we all recoil in astonishment.
She has on a short skirt, totally black, a orange stripe along the middle, and ends in a heart shaped breast plate. She has her hair done up with a black clip that is shaped like a music note, and there is an orange bow clipped in as well.
"May! That is so CUTE!" Candice squeals, jumping up to hug the girl.
"I based it off of Meloetta's Pirouette forme! I thought it would be kinda cute!" She blushes, and Misty jumps up.
"I'll trade you!"
We all laugh as Gardenia walks in, with her large bag.
We make idle chatter, when the door opens slowly.
"No judging!" She squeals as she jumps out.
She's wearing a pair of pant's, that are light green, and she has two colored pom-pom's on, one pink and one blue. On her face is a masquerade mask, and a large white wig. Her shoes are green stilettos, that match the pants perfectly, and she's wearing a cape around her shoulders. Her shirt is a dark green, and comes down to her hips, showing off her stomach.
"AHH! ROSERADE!" I squeal, and jump into her arms as she laughs.
"Me and Roserade are going as partners!" She laughs, and heads back into the bathroom.
Candice steps in, but hesitates at the door.
"This costume isn't really me, so please be nice!" She laughs as she closes the door.
Candice would never be caught DEAD in anything resembling a dress, so when she walks out in a gown, we all recoil a bit.
She comes out wearing a floor-length gown, that is a light blue, almost ice colored. The waist-length sleeves are a gorgeous iridescent color that picks up color from everything in the room, and shimmers like lights in the northern skies. She is also wearing a white circlet, that has a dark blue gem placed directly on her forehead, and as she turns, her dress has the same stones all the way down her back, every couple inches or so.
"Candy..." Gardenia wipes a tear out of her eye, as Hilary runs up and hugs her.
"You... you look..." I stutter, and her face goes red.
"It's not me, right? I have another option..." She's cut off as all of us express our thoughts.
"YOU LOOK AMAZING! Me and Gardenia call out at the same time.
"It's based off an Aurorus, an ice type fossil pokemon from the Kalos region!" She twirls, and the entire dress glimmers and floats.
After we convince her that she looks amazing, she quickly changes back, and Hilary goes in next.
"I picked something a bit goofy, so no making fun of me!" She steps out, and our eyes go wide.
She is literally wearing a speckled body suit, identical to Jojo, and she had a head piece of a Spinda's ears on as well.
"Oh... My..." I'm cut off as Jojo, who had been sitting on the bed with Hilary, leaps off and flies at her, giggling happily.
"That is literally the cutest thing I have ever seen." Candice laughs as Hilary spins and twirls around with the excited Spinda.
Hilary quickly changes back, and Bill is the last one to head in.
He comes out wearing a large pair of yellow pants, which he has to hold up, and no shirt. He has a yellow cap on, which has two eyes placed on the sides. It has a red strip of fabric poking out of the top of it.
"What?" I laugh as he waddles over.
"That's part of my costume! I have to hold the pants up!" He defends himself, but we all laugh.
I run my hand down his chest, and he shivers.
"Go change, then we can go have lunch. I'm starving." I laugh, as he disappears.
(NSFW CHAPTER TAKES PLACE HERE, READ AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION)
(Note, there are a total of 3 NSFW scenes, and they will be place through out this Oneshot. The first and second ones are now. Also, please be advised that you must be at least 18 years of age to read the NSFW chapters. That is all.)
We all meet up, in costume, at the gym after we eat lunch and rest up for a bit.
Misty and Ash are already there, having went earlier to help set up.
We head in, and The Sensational Sisters await us.
Lily is dressed as a Goldeen, Violet looks to be a Psyduck, and Daisy is... whatever Caserin is. A Luvdisc, I think it was?
"Hey everyone! Looking good!" Lily winks, twirling in her dress.
"Are you all excited?" Daisy asks.
"Cause we sure are!" Violet finishes.
We all nod, and express our excitement.
"Perfect! Well, no sense in delaying! Let us head to Route 24!" Lily whisks out, leaving Daisy and Violet to usher us out.
Outside, I see three familiar faces, and smile wildly.
"Did we miss it?" Melody asks, leaning forward in her chair to hug me.
"We are just heading out!" Gardenia laughs as Jakob runs to hug her.
"Well hello there darlin's! Hows it going?" Lt. Surge asks, as he pushes one of his Pikachu ears out of his face. He's wearing a skin tight body suit, which manages to out line his abs, and more.
I blush as he walks forward to hug me.
"It's going great, Lt.!" I laugh as he spins me around, before placing me beside Melody.
How are you? I sign to Jakob, who smiles.
Good! Like my costume? He replies, and I nod.
He is dressed as Terrence, his Abra, and Melody is dressed as Flower, her Sunkern.
Like mine? I sign, and he smiles, nodding as I twirl.
"So, we ready to go?" Daisy asks, and we all laugh as we head out.
The beginning of the Route seems normal, but as we get deeper and deeper, there are carved pumpkins, and Gastly's floating around.
Lily leads us through a small opening in the treeline, that is outlined by candles and torches in the trees.
Surge goes in after her, carrying Melody in her wheelchair. Damn he's strong!
After we all enter, I see that inside is a dimly lit path that extends to a large clearing, that is lit up with lights and candles, and there are lots of people there already. The maze itself is blocked off with CAUTION tape.
"We ready?" Daisy asks, and we all nod. In the background, I hear a loud howl.
"AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
"Pick your groups! Groups of two or three please!" Lily shouts over all of the people, who all instantly link up with the person next to them.
I feel two little arms encircle mine, and look down to see Melody and Jakob.
Surge grabs Bill, Gardenia grabs Candice, and Brock grabs Hilary.
Misty and Ash are already attached at the hip as well.
"Well! Without further ado, please enjoy Cerulean City's forty fifth annual HAUNTED MAZE!" Violet rips the tape off, and everyone surges to get in.
"What do we get if we make it to the end?" I ask Melody, and she smiles.
"Some cash, and a free dinner at a restaurant of your choice!" She giggles, wheeling herself faster over the grassy terrain.
I whip behind her, pushing her quickly.
(NSFW Chapter part 3 here.)
We walk around for what feels like days, but it must only be a few hours becuse by the time we finally find the end of the maze, we end up being the last ones to arrive,
"Oh!" Melody frowns, but I tap her shoulder.
"Thats no problem! I'll take you out for supper, how about that?" She smiles, and I push her into the crowd of people, seeing a very tired looking Gardenia and Candice.
"Hey guys!" Gar walks up, smiling, and I notice her hair is a bit disheveled.
"So! Who won?" I ask, and she points at Hilary and Brock, who have a large trophy and small envolopes.
"Well, maybe next year!" Melody chirps, and we all laugh.
"I say, time for food!" Surge moans from behind us, and we all laugh.
And thats how we spent our Halloween, with friends and family, eating dinner and just enjoying each other's company.
Happy Halloween everyone!
