A/N: So this is my last update tonight because I want to work on my other Halloweenesque fic, Life's Wine. I'll try to get at least 1 or 2 updates a day (if not more) until i run out of ideas. And for the record, Blood Suckers really do turn your mouth red for hours. They're great for Halloween. Remember, leave reviews and you'll get updates quicker!

Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight or any of the characters.

Mummified

"This town sure is cheap." Rosalie remarked as she stared at the tacky decorations adorning the cafeteria.

"Yeah, would it kill them to spend more than a buck for their main attraction?" Alice jested as she pointed to a six foot plastic skeleton hanging on the door to the bathrooms.

"I'm not too sure, Alice." Edward piped up, "I'm thinking this beauty cost at least two bucks."

"No, it was definitely one." Rosalie remarked, "I saw the same one hanging up in a dollar store the last time I went shopping with Alice."

"Which was…?" Edward probed.

"Yesterday." The two girls chorused in unison.

"Neither of you can go a week without hitting a mall can you?"

"Nope." Rosalie muttered.

"A week? Are you mad Edward? I need to go to one at least every second day!" Alice cried as they walked out of the crowded cafeteria over to the parking lot.

After a few moments of silence of Rosalie's part, she asked, "Hey, Edward? Alice? Why are we going to the car park? We still have two more classes."

"I'm going to take the last two classes off and go and see Bella. I don't' like being away from her for too long, especially when she's sick." Edward replied as he continued on towards his Volvo. "However, I haven't the foggiest idea where you two are going."

"With you, of course!" Alice chirped, but quieted down as soon as Edward shot a fierce glare her way. "Or not."

"Well, I for one am going to go and find Emmett. I haven't seen him since this morning." Rosalie replied as she played with the hem of her shirt.

"Speaking of missing spouses, I don't think I've seen Jasper all day either." Alice remarked. "I wonder where he could be…"

Holding back a laugh, Edward pointed his finger in the direction of the cafeteria. "I think that's the answer to your question."

Parading out of the cafeteria doors were Emmett and Jasper, both of them completely covered in orange and black streamers. The only skin that was visible was their eyes and mouths. As they drew closer, the three more mature vampire realized that the streamers were covered in the words 'Free Treats'.

"What on earth are you two doing?" Edward asked as they got within touching range.

"Well, since Halloween is next week-" Emmett began.

"And this school seemed to be lacking spirit-" Jasper added.

"We figured that the student body could use something to get them into the Halloween mood." Emmett finished.

"You're kidding me." Alice chuckled.

"I can't believe you two are wandering around looking like that." Rosalie put in.

"Huh?"

"Why?"

"Jasper, I thought we did a pretty good job mummifying each other."

"Same here, bro."

"You two might as well have used toilet paper, it looks that amateur." Alice noted, staring ruefully at the horrible wrapping job.

"And what's with the 'free treats' bit?" Rosalie asked, curiously.

"Oh, that." Jasper grinned. "Emmett's idea. You see, when someone asks us about it, we give them one of these." He somehow managed to whip out a sucker from all of the streamers. Handing it to Rosalie, she stared doubtfully at the wrapper.

"Blood Suckers?" She questioned.

"Yeah. They totally turn your mouth red for hours after you eat one. You got to love red dye number four." Emmett exclaimed.

"Not to mention the complete irony of their name." Jasper added.

"Hey bro, where's our little Swan today?" Emmett asked Edward, who had been quiet for the majority of the conversation.

"She's at home, sick." Edward replied calmly. "I'm actually off to see her now."

"Well, would you mind giving her some of these for us?" Emmett asked as he pulled a handful of the lollipops out from under his wrappings. "They'll cheer her up."

"I don't think I will."

"Why not, Eddie?"

"Don't call me that. And for the record, I'm not going to give her any crazy ideas by giving her Blood Suckers. The next thing you know, she'll want a real one."

"But she has you, Edward." Alice interrupted.

"Let me rephrase that," Edward said, "She'll want to be a real one."

"What does this have to do with red dye number four again?" Emmett wondered.

Rolling his eyes, Edward turned and stalked off towards his car, calling back over his shoulder "No wonder Jasper mummified you! Mummies have to brains!"
