Chapter 12 ~ Halloween
(A/N: Okay guys I've read some of the reviews and I've promised to jelliclesoul635 I'd make my chapters a little longer, I made this chapter Halloween because number one I thought it'd be fun and number two I thought it might keep me at work :P)

Electra sighed as she looked over at Etcetera who was checking herself in the mirror.
"Etcetera, this is crazy, seriously stop."
"Stop what?" Etcetera mumbled, still inspecting herself.
"Dieting" Electra sighed and made Etcetera face her, "It's mad, you've got a great figure, you're gorgeous Etcetera, look at yourself in the mirror properly."
Etcetera rolled her eyes and turned to look in the mirror, tears formed in her eyes
"All I see is an ugly fat cow," Etcetera choked through her sobs "Now get out of my room if your not going to support me!"
"Etcy…"
"Get out!"

Victoria smiled at her reflection, she'd tried her best to look good for school, she wanted no, needed a good reputation. She knew little about her Mother, all she knew was that she was gorgeous and was a Mother at high school and that's why she abandoned her and her siblings, because she didn't want to be known as a tart. She wanted to be like her Mother, well scratching out the high school Mum thing. Sighing she picked up a bit of pink lipstick and smeared it over her pouty lips and then applied mascara. She was nearly a teenager, she might as well try to look like one. She got some pink eye shadow and smeared it on the lid of her eyes, sighing slightly she pulled on her school blazer, she scowled at her reflection. Tonight was her first ever party, Mungojerrie, Rumpleteazer and Electra had planned a Halloween party. She had to make a great effort on her appearance.

Sashimi grinned, she was enjoying her school life, she had great friends, the teachers seemed to have taken a liking to her and him. He was like a marble statue, perfectly white, very strong and kind. Paranormal, he was different from the others, very different. There was no denying that she was (A/N: In a true 'Twilight' fashion) unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him. She strutted confidently to school, her head held high, her hips swaying every time she took a step. To busy daydreaming she bumped into a fellow classmate and clumsily dropped her books.
"I'm so sorry" said a gentle voice, she recognized the velvet and soothing sound that voice contained. It was him. She blushed furiously
"No it was my fault, I was to busy day dreaming, I'm always dithery."
He flashed a crooked smile, dazzling her (A/N: I'd just like to point out Tsukiyomi Sashimi and me are both big 'Twilight' fans so I thought I'd just through in a bit of 'Twilight' flavour in.)
"I like a queen that can dream" he said, still smiling perfectly. Sashimi smiled back at him,
"So will you be going to the party tonight?" he asked casually, Sashimi nodded
"Cool so I'll see you there." He shot her one last amazing grin and waltzed off, Sashimi smiled, she hoped dearly that she would soon see him again.

After a long day of school the kids of Jellicle High were all ecstatic to find they would be going home and in three hours the biggest party yet would be taking place. Bombalurina successfully roped Demeter in coming, in hope she would meet someone new who wasn't such a swine like Macavity. Jemima and Sylvani was roped in by Sillabub who was hoping she would meet Bill Bailey there. Jemima reluctantly agreed because Pouncival would be there, Sylvani had yet to find any intrest in Toms but tagged along because she didn't really want to be on her own with her grand parents. Bombalurina dressed up as a devil, a small strapless scarlet dress with matching fishnets. She also had the simple sparkly horns and a matching tail and a pitch fork. Demeter dressed up as a bumble bee, a simple black dress and yellow and black stockings with matching wings. Sillabub, Sylvani and Jemima all dressed remotely the same, all in ballet dresses and ballet flats as well with big angel wings and a halo. Sillabub dressed in white, Sylvani in crimson and Jemima in black. The five sisters were the first to arrive, the tabby twins were dressed as two Hogwarts students and Electra as red fairy. Soon enough Pandora came, then Paranromal and soon enough everyone from Jellicle High, well everyone except Macavity anyway…

Paranormal was searching, for her. For her, she was… she was different.
Sashimi finally found him, she smiled and bounced over to him,
"Hey Paranormal" she greeted cheerfully, he eyed her up like a dog's dinner, she was dressed in a traditional japaneese dress and stilettos. He shrugged it off and grinned back
"Hi Sashimi" he beamed and extended a arm "Dance with me?" she took it with a massive grin perched wide on her face.

Demeter sat in the corner on her own, tears clouding her view, why was life so cruel to her? Why did she let Bombalurina drag her to this pathetic party? She still wasn't over Macavity
"It'll make you feel better" Bombalurina had said. Fat chance was that, Demeter felt even worse then usual, Munkustrap approached the queen and took a seat next to her. Munkustrap had always been envious of Macavity and how he had one of the most beautiful queen in the whole of town. He was also infuriated that Macavity thought he could treat such a queen so cruelly, he shot a smile at Demeter.
"God I hate these party's" he mumbled, Demeter nodded feebly.
"How are you feeling?" he whispered, a tear fell from one of Demeter's emerald eyes.
"Not to good" she murmured, Munkustrap nodded and put his arm around her, Demeter jumped but let him pull her closer.
"Listen Deme, if you ever need anything. You know we've been great friends ever since we were little and I'd be happy to help you, so if you –if you really need anything I would be happy to provide."
Demeter grinned at him, "Thanks Munku, you're a great friend."
"Hey Dem! Over here!" Demeter rolled her eyes, "I'd better go" Munkustrap nodded his farewell.
"Yeah.. friend…."
