Chapter 3: They Just Want To Have Fun
It was a warm Autumn afternoon which was getting darker at the luxurious Solo villa in Athens' outskirts. The olive trees softly danced on the plains because of a salty breeze coming from the sea. Meanwhile, Poseidon's temple at Cape Sounion beamed under the last sunrays. The Mediterranean cool breeze came to the terrace were the Halloween party was beginning although the guests weren't arrived yet.
Like three condemned men, the three judges in their costumes stood before the beautiful Lady von Heinstein-Solo. With an evil smile, Pandora approached a tall white furry animal which was sternly looking at her and, eager to exercise her power over him, she pretended to arrange his tie although she eagerly caressed his muscular neck which was hidden by his costume. With half-shut eyes, she enjoyed the warm feeling of his skin and blood under her fingertips, the ones she missed so much. She was able to listen to his heartbeats, loud and rhythmic as drums in war. They were as powerful and strong as he was.
Suddenly, she was forced to stop her delightful moment because she had realized that someone was coming. This stirred an alarm in her heart although she doubted if it was true or there was someone playing with her. But it was true. When Pandora listened to the steps approaching the terrace, she regally straightened her back and sighed heavily. Using all her self-control and coldness, she slowly turned to the incoming visitor with her most charming smile.
Meanwhile, a masked tall young man with a long dark blue cloak walked into the terrace. His long blue mane loosely floated behind him. His body radiated power and great confidence, belonging to a powerful man born to be in command, someone to be obeyed without doubt. His blue eyes watched the place and he openly smiled to the dark robed woman standing in front of him.
- What a charming Halloween party! – The masked man exclaimed as he stared at her in delight. - You always surprise me!
Watching the newcomer, Pandora broadly smiled, walking towards him. She slightly bowed and said. – Welcome, sir! We're having a private party here but you can join us if you want!
– I'm glad to join the party. - The young man took her hand and devotedly kissed her. - Meanwhile, I just want to pay my respects to the most beautiful lady.
– Sir, you're so daring. - Pandora teasingly replied as he warmly held her hand. – You should know that I'm a married woman and I'm not supposed to talk to strangers!
The smiling Greek tycoon came closer to her and took her by the waist. – Well, I´m sure your husband would allow you to talk with this stranger because he loves you and wants you to be happy!
The judges and the other people at the terrace witnessed their exchange of sweet remarks. They seemed to be a couple totally in love. Only a blond mermaid snorted while a white furred animal silently swore.
The black-haired woman intently watched the man clad in blue and sweetly answered. – Sir, my only wish is to make my husband and little Dorian the happiest on earth!
The masked Julian Solo embraced her and kissed her lips. – My love, you're the best thing that happened to me!
Pandora ardently kissed him back. – My only wish is to make my beloved happy!
Julian kissed her neck and wanted to open the dark cloak while she tried to keep it closed.
– Not yet! When we are all together, we would show our costumes and have fun. – Pandora replied, caressing his chin with a manicured enameled nail. – Wait a couple of minutes, please! Dorian and our guest aren't here yet.
The guy hugged her again and greedily kissed her lips. With throaty voice, he retorted. – I would need to use all my self-control for that! I hate to wait, darling!
This romantic scene was cut abruptly by another tall young man entering the terrace. His dark cladding hid his face and body. He was accompanied by a slender man whose body was covered with bandages as a mummy. When they approached the couple, the mummy respectfully knelt before them.
Pandora cheerfully greeted the stranger. – Welcome to our Halloween Party! I'm glad that you join us!
- Thank you for the invitation! – The newcomer said as he was motioned towards an armchair. - You both look so happy! Seriously, I would think of marrying!
- I've never been happier, brother! - Julian happily replied and patted the guest's back. Then he took two glasses of the finest Greek wine and offered one to the other man. – Being a married man and father is a blessing!
- Yes, you look like another man: merrier, carefree, easy going… I wish I could find a bride to make me find such happiness. – The dark man added with a sigh. – At the end, I was stuffed with Demeter's daughter.
While the men talked, Pandora softly told the judges in costume to get out the terrace and wait until they were summoned by her. With a sigh, they left on tiptoes to stand behind a silk curtain, waiting for her orders. Having cleared the terrace, she approached the men and Julian offered her a glass.
The dark clad man smiled and made a toast. – For the Solo family!
The other man replied. – For the Olympians, my beautiful Pandora and my heir Dorian!
With bright eyes, Julian's wife added. – For love and happiness!
After the toast, they began to chat until Hades asked. – Where's the baby? Is he coming?
While enjoying the expensive wine, Julian replied. – Yes, Dorian is joining us, too. Darling, where's he?
- Benthesikyme should bring him now. – Pandora proudly said as she nodded towards a maid who swiftly went in search of Poseidon's daughter.
Pretty soon, Pandora's step-daughter came in with a lovely little kid dressed as a cow-boy with a wee hat, who giggled when he listened to his mother. His arms were stretched towards her following the sound of her voice. But when he realized that there was a black robed woman instead of his beloved mommy, he stopped. With a sigh, he carefully watched the masked and clad people around him who looked like strangers. Not recognizing anyone of them as his relatives or acquaintances, he began to kick and whine, pouting. Benthesikyme sourly held him in her arms.
- DA, DAA! DA, DAAAAAA! – Little Dorian screamed aloud, looking for his guardian. – DA, DAAAAA!
From behind the curtain, the Wyvern motioned forward to get Dorian in his arms. But he was stopped by Aiacos who took his arm and whispered in his ear. – Are you mad? You cannot go in now! Leave him! She doesn't want us in there!
The golden eyes flashed as the baby screamed his name. Listening Dorian's pleading voice, he couldn't stay unmoved. But Aiacos was right: Pandora clearly gave them orders to stay out of the terrace until they were summoned. Besides, being in the company of two gods and his mother, the child was safe. With a deep sigh, he tried to calm down. At the end, he was wise enough to step back in the shadows.
Meanwhile, Dorian's half-sister wanted to stop the crying baby with sour outbursts but he continued crying. Benthesikyme was losing her temper so his mom quickly approached the little one. It broke her heart to listen to his cries.
- My dear, don't be afraid! This is mommy! We're in disguise for Halloween! It's just for fun. – Pandora tore off her lace black mask and the baby slowly stopped whining when he recognized her. Then she lovingly took him in her arms. – Don't be afraid, darling! It's me!
Julian came nearer them without taking off his mask and caressed the baby's forehead. – Come on, Dorian! You know us. We are in disguise just for fun. It's Halloween celebration! Be brave! Don't cry!
Dorian stared at him and pouted. But being with his mom and feeling more relaxed as his father caressed him, finally he smiled. Then the three of them hugged. It was a nice family vignette so his uncle was moved.
- What a lovely family! - The dark clad young man approached the baby and caressed his cheek with his dark glove. – So you're Dorian von Heinstein–Solo. Nice to meet you!
When he listened to his voice, the baby looked at him and smiled. In fact, he was getting used to the people in costume and, with the reassuring words of his mom and dad, he felt safe now. Besides, there was something in the dark clad man who made him feel more comfortable. But he wasn't at ease at all. In fact, he was looking for another person who was important in his young life: his guardian Rhadamanthys.
- DA, DAA? AAH? – The baby asked the man clad in black while sucking his finger then exclaimed while his head turned around in search of the Wyvern. – DA, DAA! DA, DAAA!
- He's asking for his dad! – The man in black robe said has he caressed the baby's soft black hair on his little forehead until his finger touched a fluffy spot, the soon-to-become a dark unibrow. Hades stared at him and narrowed his eyes. – My, what do you have here, little one? It makes me recall of something…
Pandora swiftly replied as she feared that the Lord of the Underworld might notice the growing Dorian's resemblance to Rhadamanthys: his trademark unibrow. – Babies have fuzz on them until they are one year-old, brother. Isn't he a lovely kid?
The dark clad man smiled. – My nephew is a charming little boy.
While the kid was staring at the man dressed in dark robes, Benthesikyme boldly asked him. – Who are you? Are you another member of the Heinstein family?
The knelt mummy swiftly stood up and motioned in front of the dark clad man in a defensive position. His eyes flashed as he prepared himself to attack the woman if necessary. His boss just faintly smiled as his eyes shone behind his mask, his hand softly shaking of rage. Pandora embraced Dorian as the tension increased.
Suddenly, it was cut off when Julian crossly looked at Benthesikyme and said. – My child, don't be rude! You should apologize! He's my brother and your uncle! Besides, we're celebrating Halloween so we must keep our identities until it's time. Don't spoil Dorian's first party!
- Yes, Benthesikyme forgot that we are having a celebration now. She should get dressed to join us unless she wants to be excluded from this party. – Pandora poisonously said while she patted the dark man's back. – My dearest brother, don't get upset now.
- No, I'm not upset. I'm just surprised by someone who dares to insult me at my brother's party. – He answered with a hint of contempt as he motioned the mummy to kneel again in a corner of the terrace.
Meanwhile Benthesikyme bared her teeth but her father scolded her. He didn't understand why she was so annoying.
- I'm sorry, brother. The Lady of the deep-swells has bad manners. – Pandora whispered to him as she put on her black lace mask.
Hades softly replied. – I'm sure she's a minor deity who's not used to meet the Olympians.
Julian ordered more wine to be served. Holding his glass, the Greek tycoon watched the knelt mummy and then he addressed his brother. – There's no need to bring him to this celebration. I have this place under surveillance so just relax and enjoy yourself.
The black clad man sipped his wine. – You know that I must be accompanied when I wandered on the earth. It has become a dangerous place with all the violence and hatred. Humans are despicable!
- It's just a family gathering, dear brother. - Pandora smiled and sat with the baby on her lap on another comfortable armchair facing the two men. – Now we should try to be merry and have a good time! The party begins now!
Hades and Poseidon sat on a couch and drank their wine. Lady Heinstein-Solo rang a bell and maids came in bringing trays of raw oysters, caviar, Iberian ham, escargots, foie gras and other delicacies. They also served drinks to the Solos and his guest. The mummy knelt behind the dark clad man and carefully watched them while they were chit-chatting.
As the sun went down, the maids lit the candles inside the pumpkins as well as the lights. The terrace was both charming yet haunting. While the grown-ups talked, Dorian was curiously touching the decorations and trying to eat a chocolate bat which was sweetly encouraged by her mother.
With muffled words, Pandora told the maids to bring the rest of the people in, while Dorian sat on his little high chair and giggled as the men drank their wine. Minutes later, five people got in the terrace, one by one: the three judges, the mermaid and the baby's nanny. When three big furry animals were entering the terrace, they saw a tall man dressed in black who stood in front of the Solos. His cosmo was powerful yet familiar so they respectfully stood up before the hosts and their guest. The other people seemed to be at ease. Dorian looked at them and clapped. All of them had their identities hidden by their attires.
Julian stood up and raised his glass. – Now it's time to welcome the other guests who came to this party.
With a slight bow, Pandora stood up and addressed both men. – My dear, here are some people attending Dorian's Halloween Party. They were asked to wear costumes based in comic characters, according to Mister Solo's request.
Julian blew a kiss to his wife and added. – As you know, I'm a big comic fan so I would like to have some comic characters attending Dorian's first Halloween Party.
His brother nodded and Pandora continued. - First, we would introduce ourselves and say a line about the character so the other guests could identify him or her. The best costume would receive a special prize given by Dorian.
There was a giggle from the man with the blue cloak who smugly said. – It's a fine idea to unleash our guests' imagination, taking into account those wise rules.
The black-clad man slightly smiled. – I'm eager to see who came to Dorian's party.
- Being gentlemen, we ask this beautiful lady to introduce herself first. Who are you? – Julian requested his wife who answered with a sweet smile.
With slow motions, she took off her cloak. She wore a tight strapless swimsuit with stripes and stars, her milky bare shoulders were like flawless pearls. Her tall boots were knee-length and her high-heels made her taller. On her slender neck was a thick collar made of fine gold and her fancy earrings were of pure gold, too. Pandora had a small golden tiara with a star-shaped diamond on it which brightly shone on her black hair. On her right hip, an ominous whip was hanging and she put her gloved hand on it. – Behave, gentlemen. I would not allow you to spoil this party.
Julian broadly smiled watching his wife. – You're the most beautiful woman in the world, my darling! In fact, you're my Wonder Woman!
Hades stared at his sister and nodded. – After watching some images of human super-heroes, I bet she's the prettiest Wonder Woman! May all the Amazons be as gentle and beautiful as she is!
Pandora sweetly smiled back to them and took Dorian in her arms. – Let me introduce to you our blessing and treasured heir: Dorian von Heinstein-Solo.
The baby giggled. He was dressed as a wee cow-boy, having a fine hat which resembled John Wayne's, a soft leather vest, trousers and boots, as well as a linen shirt. The final touch was a silk handkerchief on his short neck.
The dark clad man asked. – What's his character? Lucky Luke? Or just a cowboy?
His mom softly chuckled and explained. – Oh, no! He's Vigilante, a black-haired gunman who dressed as a cowboy. He joined the Justice League [1] and teamed up with Wonder Woman.
Julian was in awe. – Darling, you always surprise me! I remember that story! So we have now the alluring Wonder Woman with this brave Vigilante!
The proud mom nodded and put the baby on a small stuffed pony which was brought by the maids as he enjoyed his first ride. Both men clapped and cheered up the little boy who had fun with his toy.
The Greek tycoon kissed his wife and faced his brother. – I'm impressed! Now, it's time to introduce myself.
With a calculated movement, he took off his dark blue cloak. He wore a tight blue costume with a stylized red-and-yellow "S" shield on his chest and red boots. Although Julian wasn't brawny, the costume showed off his slender body and the red cape covered his back. His blue mane floated as a silky cape, too, while his blue eyes shone behind the fancy mask as he stared at his wife. He was eager to know what her reaction was.
- Although I wasn't born in earth, I protect it because my dearest ones live here. – The young Solo proudly said. – Many say there's something that weakens me but it's not true: my only weakness is my beautiful wife.
He took her hand and gently kissed it. They looked at each other as a couple totally in love.
Pandora sweetly said while kissing Julian. – You're my Superman!
- Not only Superman but a naughty Casanova! You're not supposed to kiss Wonder Woman because you're married to Louise Lane! – Hades told them. – Besides, you have longer hair than this character. But it's funny that you want to protect his planet and these miserable humans.
Superman laughed aloud as he patted his brother's back. – That's only Superman's task! Mine is to become the ruler of the planet!
Flinching, his brother answered back. – I see, Superman! I hope you keep your promise in the next Holy War so we could be the rulers of the earth, after all the despicable humans were drowned and the wretched Athena defeated.
- Of course, brother! You have my word! – Julian replied with a bit of contempt.
Pandora happily added. – You can count on the Justice League!
Julian mildly smiled. - Well, let's see who you are now.
With an elegant move, the young man removed his black cladding and smiled as he stood up challenging them. His tall frame was dressed in a deep black suit with high black boots and a scallop-hem cape. There was an emblem on his chest in silvery grey while a black cowl which featured a pair of bat-like ears covered almost all his face. His black-gloved hand was graciously set on a utility belt. Julian and Pandora watched him in awe while little Dorian stared at him and began to pout. That big black clad man frightened the baby.
Quoting from the latest Trilogy [2], the black knight seriously told them. - It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me.
- Dear brother, what a wonderful quote! You're an outstanding Batman! – Pandora exclaimed as she approached and hugged him. – The Dark Lord of the Night!
- Welcome to the Justice League! – Julian happily said while he stared at his brother. – You look like the Dark Knight! Where's is your Batmobile?
With his bright eyes, Hades answered. – Well, parked outside. I chose this superhero because he suits my tastes: a billionaire sexy and powerful young man yet a dark knight himself.
- In fact, it suits you! Besides, you chose wisely to be at our side! – Julian gave his brother another glass of champagne. – Let's drink on behalf of the Justice League!
While they enjoyed their drinks, the little Dorian began to cry. With care, Thetis took him in her arms. The poor baby was afraid of Batman and wanted to be reassured by an adult. With sweet words and a hug, the mermaid tried to calm down the little kid and she succeeded at last. So the wee heir was left on the little stuffed pony.
Standing near the terrace's entrance, the three Judges looked at each other in disbelief. His mighty Lord Hades had accepted to join this wretched party and dressed up in a sad human costume. They were puzzled that he chose Batman.
- It's unbearable! They are mocking our Lord Hades! – Rhadamanthys angrily said under his breath. – We must act now!
- Why, sour spinster? He seems to have fun! – Minos replied with a mocking tone. – Just calm down!
Aiacos, who was joyfully munching a soft jelly bat, added. – I agree with Julian: it suits our Lord to be Batman! If he wants, I'm eager to be Robin!
The blond judge snorted. – Shut up, pair of narrow-minded fools! We're not at Comic-con! It's our Lord Hades we are talking about!
– Stop that nonsense! We're here on his behalf so we would not ruin his fun. Understood? - Minos said. - Besides, it's a F-A-M-I-L-Y gathering, don't you get it?
The Wyvern was going to hit the Griffon but the Garuda replied mimicking Pandora´s voice. – You don't want to ruin Dorian's first Halloween Party, do you?
The blond man stopped because Aiacos had touched a soft spot. Although he disliked the human parties and celebrations, Rhadamanthys would not want Dorian to be unhappy and it would be unforgivable if he added his two cents for it. So he gave up now but stayed alert. Besides, the headache was coming back so he closed his eyes.
After some minutes of drinking and chit-chatting, Pandora announced. – Let's see our guests' costumes!
The people gathered looked at each other, not sure who should come first. With an imperative motion, Lady Heinstein-Solo addressed Thetis to come forward. Both men stopped talking and intently looked at her.
In front of them there was a pouting blond girl dressed as French maid with a housemaid's black and white mini uniform and black high-heels. With a frown, she moved forward and bowed in front of the Solos and their guest.
Julian Solo gently asked. – Who are you?
The poor Thetis blushed, looked at her Lord and began to babble. – I…
Pandora answered for her. – She's a French maid in charge of the domestic service in our household! She's shy and obedient… so far.
The young men chuckled as they looked at her. The Greek tycoon said. – You see, brother, my maids are the finest ones!
The dark clad man smugly asked. – Can I hire her? She'll be a nice addition to my place! I lack of beautiful maids to take care of my house!
- No! - Julian happily retorted. – I couldn't do without her!
Pandora elbowed her husband and pouted. – Come on, boys, we have many people coming to join the party. Don't pay too much attention to a maidservant.
While the guys grinned, another person moved forward. She was a lean woman dressed in black with a headwear. Her features were hidden by a thick black lace mantilla as the ones traditionally used by Spanish ladies.
Julian looked at her, trying to identify the incomer. Puzzled, he asked. – Who are you?
A sour voice answered. – I'm a Widow in black.
The three adults looked puzzled as they tried to match the given name with the black figure in front of them.
Julian asked again. – A Widow in black? I don't get it!
- Are you a black spider? - Hades watched her and added under his breath. – I bet she looks more like a silly old Gorgon!
Suddenly, Pandora angrily exclaimed. – You stupid cow! I've told you were one of the Avengers [3], the Black Widow, Natasha Romanoff [4]! Not a damned widow dressed in black!
The young men laughed aloud while Benthesikyme sourly answered. – Why the big fuss? I'm a black widow after all! Besides, I hate human parties!
Pandora crossly said. – Shut up! We prepared this party for Dorian and we hope he has fun! You're a sour company now! So behave yourself!
The woman defiantly looked back to Pandora. But knowing that she might not cross her father, Benthesikyme moved towards the baby who took her mantilla's hem and put it in his mouth, playfully licking it.
When three big and sort of furry animals were approaching in line to meet the gods and Pandora, there were some voices coming towards the terrace as well as rhythmic footsteps. After a couple of minutes, they saw a tall man dressed like a musketeer who came in with a beautiful blond woman, both wearing lace masks. There was a sort of amused look in the stranger's turquoise eyes and he displayed confidence as well as strength. With a smooth movement, he took off his hat and slightly bowed before the hosts and their guest who happily welcomed them.
Watching him, Rhadamanthys felt a pang of hatred. Without doubt, he felt he had met this man before as an enemy. In fact, the newcomer had aggressive cosmo which he didn't care to hide. So the Wyvern stirred up and got ready to attack.
- Are you nuts? Lord Hades would get mad at you if you begin a fight now! – Aiacos whispered as he firmly held the Wyvern's arm. – Don't do stupid things or you'll regret it!
Taking his arm from Aiacos' grip, Rhadamanthys swore under his breath. There was something in this man that he disliked so much. His mind tried to find out but his headache was making him regret any philosophical inquiry. So the Wyvern closed his golden eyes. Although all his doubts and worries, it wasn't time for confrontations unless Lord Hades was in danger.
Meanwhile, Minos was spellbound by the blond girl. She made him recalled of someone so dear to him that it was even painful. Aiacos elbowed him twice before he turned his gaze to him.
- What's going on, lover boy? – The Garuda happily asked with a wink as he swiftly took a glass of wine from the table nearby.
- Do you believe in love at first sight? – The Griffon replied with dreamy eyes and then he was enraptured again. – She's the one!
– I don't know, dude! - Aiacos chuckled and shrugged as he drank his glass with delight. Then he added. - I just live the moment!
Before Wonder Woman, Superman and Batman, the couple waited until Pandora ordered them to present themselves.
With an elegant gesture, the musketeer respectfully said as he addressed them. – Let me introduce Princess Aurora to you.
The pretty blond girl modestly stood in front of them. She wore an elegant silk long-sleeve pink-rose dress which covered her shapely body and a little golden crown. For the occasion, she hid her features behind a golden-red lace mask but her bright blue eyes curiously stared at them. Her wonderful long hair came down like a golden cascade. Without any doubt, she was the incarnation of beauty and grace.
Pandora blinked and frowned as both men seemed to be captivated by Aurora. – What princess? I'm sorry but this party is a private one and only comic characters guests are allowed. I didn't recall any Princess Aurora…
- Come on, Wonder Woman! She's such a beautiful lady that I would ask her to join us as our guest even though she was dressed in rags! – Julian eagerly said with a wink. At his side, Hades nodded in agreement.
Blushing, the girl cast down her eyes as the musketeer replied. – With all respect, milady and lords, Princess Aurora is the main character of The Sleeping Beauty, the successful Disney film. I have accompanied this beautiful lady just to pay her respects to you.
The girl humbly bowed and greeted them with a sweet voice. – Milady and lords, I'm glad to meet you. As the Monsieur Le Mousquetaire said, I'm Aurora, the daughter of King Stefan and his Queen.
Julian clapped. – She's a Disney princess so she can join our party, darling!
Pandora pouted but finally agreed just to prevent a discussion with her husband. Nonetheless, she didn't like this princess to be around Julian and brother, so she began to scheme what to do next.
– Welcome, Princess Aurora. - Batman stood up, took her hand and charmingly asked the princess to join him on the couch. - We're glad to have you here with us. Let's have a seat.
The beautiful girl blushed and sweetly answered. – It's my pleasure to be here, milord.
Leaning towards his wife, Julian merrily whispered. – I'm sure Hades got a date! I prefer a Disney Princess than a rapacious Catwoman!
Pandora shrugged because she was eager to get that princess out of the terrace at once. Later, she might have a chance to order the Kyotos to get rid of her.
Meanwhile, Hades gently said as he intently stared at her. – Let me introduce to you. I'm Lord of Darkness, your lonely yet powerful hero.
The girl looked at him and whispered. – Oh, you're the Dark Knight!
Batman softly asked. – Have we met before, Princess Aurora?
Aurora softly answered. – Maybe once upon a dream [5] …
While they talked together, the knelt mummy sharpened his senses in case this girl was a danger to his Lord. In fact, he was there to protect Hades at any cost. After a while, he relaxed because she seemed to be harmless.
As she sat besides Hades, Minos groaned as he felt a pang of jealousy. He motioned towards her. – Good Lord! She's Dawn!
- Are you sure? – Aiacos asked as he looked at the happy couple. – If so, you must say good-bye to her, dude! It seems that our Lord is captivated by her charms.
Minos looked at the Garuda with contempt. – Are you dumb? Dawn is just my perfect match! Beautiful and sweet!
- Shut up, blokes! – Rhadamanthys exclaimed and poisonously added. – Behave and don't ruin Lord Hades' fun!
While Julian seemed to be entranced by Dawn, too, Pandora sighed and asked. – Well, who are you, musketeer?
Before giving an answer, the tall man smiled to them with his probing turquoise eyes which seemed to analyze everyone and everything around them. With extreme grace and speed, he drew his sword and put it between Batman and Princess Aurora who was in shock. Hades just blinked.
- Please, don't do it! – The girl exclaimed while Hades calmly raised his cosmo.
- I wouldn't let him harm you, Princess Aurora! – The musketeer shouted. – En garde!
The Judges and the mummy got ready to attack the musketeer. Meanwhile, Pandora embraced Dorian and covered his eyes.
What was coming next would be Hell on Halloween.
