KABOOOOMMMM! A THIRD CHAPTER IN ONE DAY!? MAN I"M GOOD! WOOOHOOOO!
Lance: Could you scream a little louder? I don't think they heard you all the way in China.
Me: You know you love me. Besides, I'm doing well for a recovery session. This is to make the fans happy about knowing I'm not dead.
Lance: And you decide to do this by publishing a story that has major spoiler?
Me: YUP!
Lance: You're logic is flawless.
Me: ON WITH THE SHOW!
Disclaimer: Chapter 1 still has it up.
Lance
Lance wasn't having the greatest of dreams. It started out with him, his sisters and niece, and his friends running down a metallic hallway. He felt angry for some reason, completely mad at something but he didn't know why. A door slid shut in front of him, but he simply raised his fist and punched through it, allowing Lance to see he was in his Mantra form from when he was in Asura's world.
Now Lance knew that very few things caused him to be so mad that he'd be in his Mantra form, but he watched as his dreamself punched through door after door after door. Finally, after about ten doors doing nothing to stop him, Lance stopped just inside a large circular room. There was a walkway towards the middle of the room, an opening in the ceiling about 50 feet up, and lab equipment surrounding a huge test tube that had something floating inside of it.
Lance watched as the thing convulsed then turned their way, revealing one of the most hideous faces that Lance had seen yet. It looked like a screwed up caterpillar with two eyes on either side of its head and a mouth that formed into teeth. Lance stared at the thing in pure anger. Just as he was about to see what happened next he felt someone shaking him awake.
Lance was pulled from the dream and slowly opened his eyes, seeing that he was upside down and someone was shaking him by his foot. "Come on Lance, wake up." Yang ordered as she shook him some more. It's just like my first official day at Beacon, he thought as he remembered Yang waking him up the same way.
He opened his eyes fully, shaking his head to clear the drowsiness. "I'm up. You can put me down now." he said. Yang let go of his foot and dropped him on his head. It didn't hurt since he had his curse and all, but it was still slightly uncomfortable. "Come on Lance, today you're telling us how you got those powers." Man, I thought she'd forget and let me have a peaceful day, he thought to himself. Yang was one of his biological sisters and that meant that she could mentally communicate with him. It wouldn't have been the first time one of his sisters joined in on a conversation that either made them confused or mad.
Yang offered him a hand up, which he gladly took, and followed her to the cafeteria. "Everyone's waiting by the front door to the mess hall. Misaka and Kuroko seemed excited to hear about your adventures." Lance chuckled as they walked. "Yeah, well I'd rather eat first. I'm hungry." Same here, the Darkness said. "You're always hungry Lance. I swear, I honestly don't know where you put all that food." Lance shrugged as they walked closer to the others.
"I don't know either, but I do know that I'm never going back to Banoi anytime soon." Yang looked over at him. "Oh? And why's that?" The memories of Banoi briefly flashed through his mind, but Lance managed to push them down. "I'd rather not talk about it in public." he replied.
Their conversation was over as they stepped next to the rest of the group, which consisted of Ruby, Weiss, Blake, Kurumi, Misaka, Kuroko, the chick with the fan from yesterday, the girl with the wavy wavy brown hair, and a new girl that head shoulder-length dark-bluish (very dark) hair and the same color eyes. "Hey Lance." Misaka greeted. "Hey Misaka. Is there any reason why she's here?" Lance asked as he lazily pointed at the girl with the fan.
Kuroko stepped in, glaring at the girl as she said, "Kongou has something to say, don't you Kongou?" 'Kongo' obviously didn't want to say anything, but she relented and said, "I'm sorry for trying to get you to show your powers yesterday." Lance shrugged. "Just don't try it again and we can be friends." The girl with the wavy wavy hair stepped forward. "So, we were told that you'd explain your powers." Lance sighed as they stepped in line for breakfast. "I won't go into detail about all my powers, but I will tell you that I can control water, make earthquakes, create little hurricanes, teleport, and Pull things towards me."
They each grabbed a tray and grabbed their breakfast. Lance picked out toast, Jell-O, milk, an orange, some ham, a piece of bread, another piece of ham, some slices of bacon, another orange, a pizza slice, and a pudding cup, and went to sit down at the edge of a table where they would have a reasonably private conversation. "So, as you were saying." the other girl with the dark hair said.
"I also host a spirit of vengeance that can eat souls." The three new additions to the group froze in place in fear. "You're kidding, right?" the girl with the wavy wavy hair asked. Her voice was enough to hear that she didn't want that to be true. Lance shook his head. "Remember that scene in the alleyway? The one where that 'girl'," he used air quotations, "exploded in fire? That was the Ghost Rider eating a soul. Don't worry though, that 'girl' was actually a monster in disguise."
Kongou looked the most shaken out of the three. "So when you were shaking when I was trying to see your power…?" "That was me trying to hold back the Rider from plucking at your soul until you begged for mercy." Lance finished. While the three new girls took in the information, Lance began to munch on his breakfast. The hams slices were the first to go, followed by the bacon on top of the pizza, then the pudding, the bread, and finally the milk. "I can't imagine living like that." the girl with the wavy wavy hair said, looking at Lance with pity.
He simply shrugged. "He's not the worst one. There are others, just waiting for me to call on them while they lounge around in their own little worlds." Now he had Misaka's and Kuroko's attention. "Others?" Kuroko questioned. Lance knew she felt like she was walking a tightrope, but he helped her relax. "Yeah, but there shouldn't be anything at a middle school that should have to make me use their powers, even if the students have super-powers of their own."
It was easy to tell that the mood at the table was going from light-hearted to depressed, so Lance decided to change things up. "But enough about my powers. Are there any events that are coming up? Any festivals?" Kuroko lightened up as she thought about the school's big events. "There's the upcoming Daihasei Festival! It's supposed to be really big this year, and I've heard that they're even putting in a wrestling event." Misaka looked at Kuroko. "Really, a wrestling event?" Kuroko nodded. "They say that it's either going to be a lone student against an entire school, or single matches. No one knows for sure, but it'll still be fun!"
Lance like this idea. Taking on an entire school, and being allowed to fight them. "That does sound like fun." Lance agreed. He could already feel the excitement of fighting an entire school. "Yeah, but which would you prefer Lance?" Ruby asked. Lance grinned. "I'd take on an entire school. Sounds like a challenge." Weiss chuckled as she sipped her coffee/tea/whatever she was drinking. "But you've fought worse. Where's the challenge in taking on an entire school full of kids?"
"Being allowed to fight them in the first place. I mean yeah, it wouldn't be the toughest fight I was in but it would still be fun to do." he replied. Kuroko cast Lance a worried smile. "Are you toying with us?" Lance grinned as he replied, "Nope. I doubt that a bunch of kids would cause me much trouble. Besides, it's not like I'm gonna try and tear them apart."
Blake cracked a smile. "Just beat them into the ground, right?" Lance grinned as he chuckled. "You know it sis." Lance waited for the rest of the girls to finish their breakfast before heading outside. It was nice out, no clouds around, little wind, not too hot. Lance sat down on a bench as he looked around. Some girls that were out and about gave him weird looks, but no one gave him the Evil Eye. "So, are you still going to tell us about your powers?" Kuroko asked from behind Lance. He was no stranger to teleportation so he expected that she'd pop in.
"Yeah, fine." The rest of the girls were gathering around as Lance began his story. "So it all starts with me waking up in this city called Dunwall. Now this city has seen its fair share of bad things. Thugs, rat plague, even witches. But the real kicker was that it was in another universe. So anyway, I wake up with this weird symbol on my hand. I have no clue why, but I felt different. I first found out I had different powers when I imagined being on a nearby rooftop to see where I was, and the next thing I knew, I was."
Lance leaned back on the bench as he continued. "So I see this castle not too far and I decide to try my new powers out. I get there no problem, and as I stepped through the castle doors, I run into this shady looking guy, real nasty looking creep covering himself with a robe. So anyway, I head inside and I see the queen. Nice woman, very polite. But she said she was having problems with a group of people calling themselves the Watchers. They were actually a group of fanatics that were crazy for the god of that world that gave me the mark and powers in the first place. He was called the Outsider. Now this guy was creepy to the bone. He had black eyes, a depressing attitude, and they guy would manipulate people into doing things that made history – good or bad – just for fun. I'm just going to skip to the part where I fight him."
Lance noticed that the three new additions were leaning in closer as he continued. "So we're in his little dimension called the Void, where all rules of reality don't exist. So we fight, and let me tell you he was one powerful god. This guy had all sorts of nasty tricks and he used every single one against me. But he was prophesized to die in a major calamity. Well it was happening as we were fighting so he was getting weaker, which gave me the advantage I needed to put him down once and for all."
Kuroko
Never has Kuroko imagined that someone could defeat a god. The story Lance told didn't give much detail but he still beat a god. The very thought started to hurt her brain, and Lance seemed to notice it. "It doesn't sound true, but it is. Believe me, I've been in situations that would tear apart your sanity, cause a massive headache, or leave you sitting in a padded room, curled up, and drooling for the rest of your life."
Sissy leaned back as she took in the information. "Wow, that definitely beats anything I've done." Ruby smiled as she stood up. "Lance isn't the only one who's been in tough situations." Lance stretched before leaning back on the bench. "Yeah, but while you all talk about the Grimm, I have to take Fluffy on his walk. He's starting to get antsy." Weiss nodded as she gave waved a little. "Don't take too long, and try not to scare anyone." Lance gave a thumbs-up and pushed himself off the bench. "I won't, but you know how Fluffy gets excited."
He walked off, not even bothering to give an explanation. Kuroko looked to Ruby for answers. "Don't worry about Lance. He's just going to walk his pet." Sissy sighed in relief. "Okay then. So what animal is it? Does he own a dog, a cat?" Blake gave a faint smirk as she read her book. "Fluffy's not really a known animal. We'll be sure you're introduced. Just don't flip out when you see him, he's really excitable." Sissy nodded as she folded her arms.
"So when will we meet Fluffy?" Yang shrugged. "Whenever Lance gets back from walking Fluffy." Kongou sighed as she began to walk off. "Well I'm off then. I need to practice so that I'm not surpassed by first years." She looked back with a look of both confidence and superiority. "Well ta-ta then." Her tone was back to the same tone that it was before: snarky and egotistical. Kuroko sighed as she knew Kongou being nice was too good to be true.
Sissy looked over at Ruby and just had to ask, "What's a 'Grimm'?" Yang's smile became a smirk, Ruby had a 'I know more than you do' smirk, Weiss absently brushed a scar over her left eye, and Blake went to reading a book. "The Grimm," Ruby started, "are beings of darkness. They want to see all life returned to the dust, but where we're from there are people called Hunters and Huntresses that fight back the darkness. They defend everyone they can from any kind of danger, whether it's from Grimm or other people."
Sissy's jaw dropped, as did Kuroko's, as Ruby crossed her arms and said, "We're Huntresses."
Kuroko didn't know whether to feel happy or scared what Lance's sisters were capable of. If he had unimaginable amounts of power, how much did his older siblings have? But the way Yang smiled seemed to kill the dark mood. "But we get some time off and we're spending it with Lance."
Kuroko looked over to Ruby. "So any ideas on what to do now?" Ruby shrugged. "We could see if Lance would let us tag along with walking Fluffy." "I guess, since there's nothing to do today." With that, they set off to find Lance and Fluffy. As they walked, Kuroko had an uneasy feeling begin to develop. "So what kind of pet if Fluffy anyway?" Sissy asked. Yang shrugged and was about to answer, but she was interrupted by Lance calling out, "Here Fluffy! Come on boy, where are you? Come on, Fluffy. I've got a grenade for you to play with."
"Did he really lose Fluffy already?" Blake asked as she continued to read her book. Weiss sighed as she rubbed her nose. "This is Lance we're talking about here. He'd lose his head if it was attached to him." Kuroko and Sissy looked at each other in confusion and shrugged. Ruby led them to Lance, who was busy looking through a tree. "Hey Lance, is Fluffy off his leash so soon?" Lance looked down and replied, "No, he managed to untie his leash when I wasn't looking."
He hopped down, still looking around. "We have to find him before anyone overreacts." Just then, a shrill scream sounded. "Like that," Lance said before sprinting off in the direction of the scream, Kuroko, Sissy, and Lance's sisters and niece following closely behind.
As they ran, Kuroko noticed that they were headed back to Tokiwadi. Another scream, this one from inside the dorms sounded. "Ruby, Yang, Kuroko, Misaka, Kurumi, head to the main building to cut Fluffy off. Blake, Weiss, and I will try and catch him where he is right now."
Kuroko ran off with Ruby, Yang, and Sissy to the dining hall as Lance, Blake, and Weiss headed straight for the dormitories. "You think Lance might actually catch Fluffy before he reaches the lunchroom?" Yang asked as they entered said dining hall. Ruby shrugged. "Maybe. This is Lance we're talking about, so I give him a 50/50 chance."
Great, even Lance's sisters didn't know if his plan would succeed.
Lance
As Lance, Blake, and Weiss headed for the dorms, Lance could only imagine the amount of chaos Fluffy was creating just trying to hug someone. "Of all the times Fluffy wants to venture out on his own, it had to be at a school full of super-powered kids." Lance turned left as he heard another scream, this one much closer. "I can't believe he managed to untie his leash while you weren't looking." Weiss added. Lance was about to reply, but the crowd of girls standing around a door stopped him. Lance had to make his way through with some slight force. "'Scuse me, pardon me, gang way, coming through. Professional here." Needless to say, some of the students were less than happy that Lance had to force his way through the crowd. Finally, after what seemed like hours, he finally made it.
He saw Fluffy, the energetic Flood Infection form that he is, riding on top of a girl's head while flailing his two main tentacles in the air, like he just don't care. The girl was running around, screaming at the top of her lungs, trying to get Fluffy off. "Hey, calm down!" Lance called, but the girl was still running around like a headless chicken. "Lady, calm down!" Lance called again, this time louder.
When she still didn't stop, Lance took a deep breath and called out, "Calm down!" It seemed to do the trick because the student finally stopped running around, though she still looked terrified beyond all belief. "Now listen very carefully. Just stay calm, okay?" The girl nodded.
Lance slowly made his way to Fluffy, who was still flailing his tentacles around in the air. "Fluffy, just calm down boy. Come on boy. Come on." At first Fluffy seemed to be calming down, but in the span of a second Fluffy jumped out through the open window and began to scurry off towards the main hall. "We'll join Ruby and Yang at the dining hall and we'll head to the main hall." Weiss planned and ran off with Blake.
Lance wasted no time in hopping out the window and running after his pet. Gods, if anyone else freaks out, Fluffy'll have an accident, Lance thought as he chased his pet all around campus. Fluffy may not have been fast, but he could turn on a dime, something Lance wasn't too great at. After five minutes of Lance running around, chasing Fluffy, he saw his pet scurry up and through another open window, this one looking like it was from a classroom. Lance heard a few girls scream, further giving him idea that it was a classroom.
Lance headed through the front door, hoping to cut Fluffy off as he ran down the hallway. Lance turned to corner just in time to have Fluffy fly at his face at mach speed. Fluffy may have been like a living balloon, but he still had some weight. Lance was thrown off his feet and onto his back as Fluffy began to jump up and down in excitement. Lance carefully grabbed Fluffy and held him fast. "Fluffy, calm down, buddy. Calm down." Lance had to keep hold of Fluffy until he started to calm down.
Finally, when Lance was sure Fluffy had calmed down enough, he placed his pet on the top of his head and went to find his sisters. Thankfully no one was really in the main building since school hadn't officially started (they were allowed a week to make friends and get to know the layout of the school).
Lance found Ruby, Yang, Blake, Weiss, Kurumi, Milk Shake, and Kiki (Kuroko) waiting by the backdoor. "Finally you've caught him," Weiss sighed, "I was beginning to think he was going to outsmart you." Lance smirked. "I actually had to outsmart him, thank you very much. He's been causing a ruckus for almost the entire morning, so hopefully he's calmed down by now." Lance held up his hand in front of Fluffy. The Infection Form knew where he was going and proceeded to give him a high five.
Just as Fluffy was about to run off again, Milkshakes and Kuroko walked in, looking exhausted. "W-we ran fr-from the other side of the school," Misaka panted, "there were reports of some thing running around and-" She stopped as soon as she saw Fluffy. Lance held up his hands to keep them from going crazy. "Before you do or say anything, this is Fluffy."
Ruby
Misaka and Kuroko looked both terrified and stunned when they saw Fluffy. "What is it?" Kuroko asked as Lance took Fluffy off his head and set him down on the floor. Misaka flipped out as soon as it started to run after her. She tried to get away from Fluffy, who probably thought she was playing tag so he ran after her. "WAAAAAH! KEEP IT AWAY! KEEP IT AWAY!" she shouted.
Lance rubbed the bridge of his nose as he sighed in annoyance. "Look, Fluffy's like an energetic puppy that can understand people. He thinks you're playing a game with him, but if you just calm down…" Misaka hid behind Lance as she peaked out at Fluffy. "What do you mean it's like a puppy?! It's horrifying!" Lance just calmly bent over, grabbed Fluffy, and lifted him back up to face Misaka and Kuroko.
"Just hold out your hand. I promise he won't hurt you." Misaka looked like she was about to faint, but after Lance gave her a calm smile (a very rare occasion) she slowly stuck out her hand. She jumped when Fluffy grabbed her hand with his tentacle and shook it. "Fluffy says hello." Lance informed before setting Fluffy onto a nearby desk. Kuroko seemed to be more relaxed than Misaka and ventured closer, though she probably didn't expect Fluffy to jump on her head and wave his tentacles in the air, judging by how quickly she jumped.
"It's alright. Fluffy just likes to sit on people's heads and dance. He means no harm, whatsoever." Kuroko began to relax as Fluffy kept dancing (he was doing what looked like the tango). "Just what exactly is Fluffy?" Kuroko asked. "He's…. well, he's an intergalactic parasite that's been disconnected from its hive mind and now only loves people, cupcakes, and uranium. If he feels threatened he'll transform into another Flood form and run off."
Fluffy jumped from Kuroko's head to Misaka's head and started to do the Mamba as Kuroko also asked, "Okay, what's the Flood?" Lance took a seat and watched as Misaka and Fluffy began to dance in a synchronized manner. "The Flood's a parasite, invented by an alien race known as the Precursors to have been a final test for humans and to eradicate the Forerunners. The Precursors were basically gods in their own right, but they went mad with power. They thought they were invincible and that all other life not made by them was a mistake. But the Forerunners, one of their creations, turned on them. The Forerunners had numbers but they would've eventually lost."
Lance seemed to grow sadder as he continued. "The Precursors didn't like the fact that even their own creations were rebelling, so they planned the Great Schism, a plan to destroy the entire universe and remake it in their image. So I had to stop them. The Forerunners thought they had overcome the Precursors and became arrogant, trying to destroy Humanity and say what was good for the universe and what wasn't. So I had to stop them too. They created the Halo rings, giant rings capable of eliminating all life in the universe to starve the Flood, but they had originally designed them to leave the Forerunners alive, so that they could recreate the universe in their image. Well some of the Forerunners didn't like that idea. The Ur-Didact, the Iso-Didact, and the Librarian all thought that the Forerunners were being corrupted by absolute power, so they created an elaborate plan that involved me and eliminated all life, including the Forerunners…. and themselves. But the Flood didn't die entirely. It somehow survived and laid dormant for hundreds of years. But it later on, it resurfaced and became a universal threat and had to be destroyed by the Master Chief. But once again, it wasn't entirely dead. A small piece of it survived and hid away to regrow. The final time it reemerged, I had to put it down, and I made sure that not even a particle survived of the Gravemind. Fluffy is the only Flood that isn't connected to the Gravemind and is capable of understanding."
Kuroko and Misaka were silent as they took this in. They had never heard of Lance being anything more than a loveable goofball with an insanity streak. "So," Misaka began, "what exactly did you mean by 'You had to stop the Precursors'?" Lance opened his mouth to answer, but apparently had second thoughts. "I'd like not to talk about it right now." Wow, Lance never sounded so sad before, Ruby thought. Lance had always told amazing adventures, but he never said anything like this before. I guess it was stupid of me to think that he'd only have fantastic adventures, she thought.
Lance, however, seemed to brighten back up just as quickly as he darkened. "But, enough of this moping around, we have people to meet, cupcakes to eat, French midgets to stop, and T-Rex's to ride into battle!" Fluffy jumped at Lance and disappeared in a flurry of blue data fragments. "Now, what say we all head out and get crazy?" Before anyone could object, Lance was out the door and down the hall, laughing maniacally.
Yang sighed as she smirked. "He's always so hyper about cupcakes. Where does that even come from?" "And who exactly is the French midget?" Weiss wondered. A nearby explosion and the sound of Lance saying, "Back I say!" was enough to get the girls going.
As Ruby ran out the front doors with everyone else, seeing Lance fighting off a ten foot tall mutant cupcake, she could only think, Lance will have to say what happened later, but for now its best that he enjoys himself.
*Time Lapse*
Lance
Lance was panting by the time he, his sisters and niece, Kuroko, and Milkshake finished off Cupcake Monster. Everyone was covered in icing, there was a burn mark on a nearby tree, a car was flipped over, and worst of all was the monster disintegrated before he could try a taste, but that didn't put him down.
"So," Lance said, placing his hands on his hips and shaking a small amount of icing from his hair, "what should we do next?" Nearly everyone, except for Kurumi and Ruby, gave him a death stare. "We just fought a Cupcake Monster and you want to do something else? I ought to smack you into the school building." Yang replied, trying to get out as much icing as possible. Weiss was busy getting chunks of cupcake off her 'battle dress' (skirt) Blake was making sure that her book wasn't tarnished by any icing or cupcake chunks, Misaka was just trying to get the stuff off her in general, and Kuroko…. well… she was busy trying to hit on Misaka.
Lance himself was covered head to toe in icing, cupcake chunks, and some of the monster's wrapping paper. "Aw, come on. The cupcake monster was fun, but how about we-" "NO!" everyone said at the same time. "Ouch, shot down before I could even say my idea." The girls gave him menacing stares, though some (Ruby and Kurumi) were a lot less menacing than others (Weiss).
So Lance leaned against a nearby tree, thinking of what to do for fun. We could have a shoot-off, destroy some unwanted school items, Lance suggested to the beings inside him. No, because they'd get scared of you firing live rounds on school grounds, BB replied. So there went another idea.
Lance was so busy thinking that he didn't immediately notice someone shaking his shoulder. It wasn't until someone's fist connected with his skull did he realize that someone was trying to get his attention. "Ow." Lance simply said as he picked himself up from the crater he made. "Hey Lance," Yang said, "I think there's someone here to meet you." She pointed over to the front gate where a dracanae slithered up, hissing and scaring most of the students away. Lance simply sighed as he stood up and walked straight for the monster.
"Hey!" Lance called out, stopping the monster in its tracks. "Ah, Lance. I thought I smelt you. I have come with an invitation from-" "Don't care." Lance interrupted, folding his arms and staring straight at the dracanae.
It hissed in anger and slithered closer. "I suggest you reconsider. Porphyrion would be most displeased if you rejected his invitation." Lance placed a hand on his chin. "Hmm let me think no. you just slither on back to him and tell him I don't' want to accept an invitation from him. He can call me a coward all he wants, but you remind him that he's in Tartarus and I'm still up here." The dracanae hissed in anger and lunged at Lance, but Lance easily sidestepped the feeble attack and brought his foot down on one of the monster's trunk-legs.
It hissed again and turned to attack, but Lance sent a right hook to its jaw, shattering the bone and throwing the dracanae off (and a few yards away). "Now there are two things that will happen here. 1 is you slither out of here and head straight down to Tartarus and tell Porphyrion or B I send you down on the express trip and you can tell him then. Either way, you're out of here."
It looked at Lance with pure hatred, but it made the smarter move and slithered out the front gate. Lance readjusted him shirt and walked back over to the girls. His sisters and niece were unsurprised that Lance had won, but Milkshake and Kuroko looked stunned once again. "So what did it want?" Blake asked. Lance leaned back against the same tree he was on before and shrugged. "Porphyrion sent an invitation my way, wanting to fight, but I said no."
The sun was already setting, which meant that Lance couldn't come up with any more fun ideas since he'd be sleeping soon. As they walked towards the dorms, Kuroko brightened up. "Hey, I just remembered that tomorrow is when they assign who's in charge of the Halloween decorations this year!" Lance looked over, intrigued upon hearing his most favorite holiday's name. "Really?" Kuroko nodded. "Yeah, tomorrow they'll hand out cards of different colors and whoever has the color that's said over the announcements tomorrow gets to be in charge of the Halloween decorations. I just hope whoever's in charge can actually do good this year. Tokiwadi has never won a Halloween competition before."
Lance folded his arms as they walked. Interesting, he thought. "So by tomorrow everyone at the school will have a card and the person to be in charge will have their color announced." Lance summed up. Kuroko nodded. "They always have a person in charge on the day of Halloween, which is tomorrow, and because Tokiwadi is the top school in Academy City the designer only has one day."
Lance grinned as he turned his thoughts inward. So we only get a day to work? Sounds like fun, BB commented. Indeed, and judging by the way Kuroko talked they never had much success in designing, the Didact voiced. Lance turned back to Kuroko. "So how high was your scores on the contest?" Kuroko sighed. "We've never been that high up. Tokiwadi is a prestigious school, but most of the students here can only make things frilly and not very Halloween oriented." Lance grinned once again. "Well now I'm here, I can guarantee a very special Halloween."
Ruby nodded and smiled. "You can do a very great decorating scheme." Yang added in her two cents, "And you do know how to scare people." Blake joined in next, "Not to mention you make being scared kinda fun." Even Weiss couldn't disagree, "And you do give out an excessive amount of candy." "That's just to make sure everyone gets a good amount. It's Halloween, not Hallow's Eve. Everyone should be in good spirits, including the spirits"
Milkshakes and Kuroko slowly made their way over to the far side of the group but Lance didn't care, he knew he was right. I wonder how Napoleon is doing right now, Lance wondered absently as they entered the dorms. Lance and Kurumi headed for their dorm as everyone else did the same. Lance sat down on the bed, feeling how soft it was compared to some of the places he had to sleep.
Kurumi had went to the bathroom to change, which left Lance alone with his thoughts… and his friends. So if we get the card, we're going to do Halloween right, right, Chaos asked, failing to hide the excitement in her voice. Yup, and we're going to make sure that everyone has a fantastic Halloween, he replied. Even the dragons seemed to be excited. Lance could feel his head buzz with everyone's excitement, but it died down as Kurumi stepped out dressed to sleep. Lance headed inside next, quickly changing into a simple shirt and shorts, heading back out, laying down on his bed, and falling asleep.
AND ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST!
I know that this was basically a filler chapter, but I just had to get this idea out and there was no way I was going to milk it farther.
Anyway, you know the drill. Leave a comment with either what you thought about the story or leave a suggestion and I will be sure to start working on that idea along with the other stories that I already have in development.
Until next time: DEUCE!
