CHAPTER EIGHT: SPOOKY, SCARY, SKELETON... 'CAUSE HALLOWEEN
... HALLOWEEN CANDY?!
"What?" N. Gin asked.
Why do the shops sell Christmas candy and chocolate as early as October but have barely any Halloween themed sweets?
"Why are you complaining about that, better still why are you bothering ME about this? From what I've been told that's apparently Cortex's job"
Because I'm board and complaining, no matter how big or small the complaint, is a part of human nature. Like complaining about the weather when it's too hot or too cold.
"If your that board then go and write a new chapter for the fan fiction... I feel like I shouldn't be encouraging you"
A Halloween special, perfect. Thanks for the advice N. Gin!
"Fine but nothing about guarding animatronics, being trapped in haunted placed period or being around mad people!"
Fine, but the chapter will probably end up being short... can I be in it?
"I don't care, you've already waisted most of the chapter with this dam pointless conversations, just start it already!"
October 31st, Halloween or day of the dead if you live in Mexico. A holiday, from what Wikipedia says, begins on October 31st and continues on til November 2nd. Unlike Halloween, where people dress up to get free candy by saying trick or treat, day of the dead focuses more on remembering family and friends who have passed on by visiting their graves and leaving behind a possession that once belong to them when they were still alive.
"Why is there a girl in MY meeting room telling us about day of the dead?" Cortex asked.
"Nina's here and she is also a girl as for her, she seems to think she's my friend plus she's board. Just go with it" N. Gin explained.
"But what about the day of the dead facts?" Cortex asked, again.
I couldn't be bothered looking up Halloween facts and day of the dead sounded more interesting to me. Please carry on.
"Anyway, my latest plan is to trick Crash into going into my spooky fun house which will be filled with deadly traps. He will never make it out alive!" Cortex laughed evilly.
"Your doings this for Halloween, right?" Nina asked.
"Correct, all we need now is the spooky fun house" Cortex said.
"And how are you going to build it in time for Halloween?" Nina asked.
"With help from the author who just happens to be here... more in person than usual. Now take N. Gin and me to the spooky fun house and give me a scary Halloween costume!" Cortex ordered.
Cortex and N. Gin arrived at Cortex's forementioned spooky fun house (of death). Cortex's Halloween costume certainly scared N. Gin.
"His costume is a drag queen, who the fuck wouldn't be even the slightest bit disturbed by this?! I feel like anyone reading this, possible that one person, should be grateful this isn't a comic right now" N. Gin said.
"It's the perfect Halloween costume" Cortex said.
"Perfect for making people want to scratch their eyes out, not to mention I'm sure to have nightmares for like a week or so. Anyway, before the place literally becomes a crime scene, why don't you go and inspect the traps?"
"Good idea"
Cortex went inside and... it says here he got beaten to a bloody pulp and that's the nice version.
"Why won't you ready it word by word, I worked really hard on that?" N. Gin asked.
And you refused to have mad people in this, a bit hypocritical of you don't you think?
"I'm an exception"
Sure and the reason why I won't is 'cause I'd have to up the age raiting if I read what you wrote. If it wasn't for your cursing I could have gotten away with a lower age raiting.
"Your gonna bring him back for the next chapter, whenever that is... Christmas next right?"
Yes and maybe, I'll see how I feel between now and then. Also end of chapter, told you it'd be short. Now who wants pizza?
"No one does, now go back to the old format, I don't wanna babysit you for another chapter"
I have it, another 'fairy tail' chapter where your the princess!
"But I don't wanna wear a dress... again"
