"What exactly ARE you supposed to be, Adam?"
"Clare, I can't believe you! I'm obviously a Werewolf Pirate Zombie."
Clare looks at the monstrosity of Adam's costume from top to bottom. Adam had the full pirate get-up, but with the addition of fake guts, fake blood and wolf ears and tail. It was grotesque to say the least.
Adam gives her costume a second glance, his blue eyes in thin slits. "What about you, Clare? After a week vacation in Hawaii, all you could come up with was a cliché vampire costume for Halloween? Where's the originality in that?"
Clare gasps. "I resent that! Vampires are very complex and interesting creatures!"
"Vampires suck, Clare. It's been a fact since Twilight… I don't even have anything relating to vampires on my costume. Besides, I thought you were over that… phase." The boy says, shaking his head in amusement.
The brunette's eyes go wide, pulling on Adam's shirt to bring him to her height. "Who told you?"
The male brunette grins. "I heard from Fiona about your little... Vampire phase with Declan. I never knew you had such a… dark side."
Clare uncharacteristically growls. She should have taken another week off from school. "You don't tell anyone, especially Eli."
"Of course, Clare." He still couldn't get the smile off of his face.
The two were currently at Clare's house, waiting for Eli, Fiona and anyone else they were going to bring. The group was going to go trick or treating around Clare's neighborhood before going to the Halloween Contest at Degrassi.
"Wait… you're telling me… Bianca is going to go trick or treating with us? You're not serious, are you?" Clare asks in disbelief.
"I'm being serious, Clare. You should also see her costume. Imogen personally bought it herself." Adam mentions, laughing at the memory.
The female brunette grimaces. "Poor Bianca."
As if on cue, the doorbell rings. Adam and Clare look at each other before glancing back at the door.
"Coming!" The pseudo-vampire screams.
The owner of the house opens the door, not knowing what she was going to see.
Clare blinks once.
She blinks twice.
"OMG, Clare's back! Group hug, girls!" Eli initiates.
He, Fiona and Imogen give the girl the tightest bear hug known to man. Clare's body starts shaking uncontrollably. The three huggers have the same thought in mind.
'Aww… she's crying because she missed us…'
In reality, Clare was trying her best to hold in her laughter. They were all ponies; Cute, adorable and incredibly enticing ponies.
Imogen was Twilight Sparkle. With her newly dyed purple hair and cute facial features, Imogen was well suited for the part.
Fiona was Rainbow Dash. In Clare's mind, she knew could probably make a million and one internet meme jokes on the hilarity of Rainbow Dash Fiona, Nyan Cat included, but she had to admit the girl looked absolutely endearing as a Pegasus.
Unsurprisingly, Eli was Pinkie Pie. It was expected, of course. There was just so much pink on Pinkie Pie that it would be crazy for Eli not to choose her as his My Little Pony costume. The boy even dyed his hair pink for the occasion. Oh damn, a pink haired Eli…
"Aw, B! Why aren't you part of the hug?" She heard Imogen ask.
Clare turns to Bianca still trying to hide her laughter… and failing.
Bianca had her arms crossed over her chest, looking entirely pissed off. She was Fluttershy; calm, timid, SHY Fluttershy. Clare couldn't control herself any longer. She falls to the floor, her laughter reducing her to tears.
"Edwards, you better stop laughing before I make you…" The older girl says threateningly.
Adam approaches Bianca. "Do you want a hug, Bian…?"
The curly haired girl stops him with a finger. "Hug me, Torres or else I will cut you."
"How did... these people... even make you… wear a pony costume?" Clare asks between gasps for air.
"…I'd rather not talk about it…" Bianca says, looking away.
To be completely honest, Eli, Fiona or Imogen didn't threaten or magically convince Bianca in anyway. She actually put on the costume of her own free will… But no one else needed to know that, of course.
"So, what are we waiting for, guys? Let's go get some candy!"Adam says, raising his empty plastic back.
"Yeah!" Everyone else, with the exception of Bianca, scream in agreement.
"Trick or Treat!" The six teenagers say, opening up their bags.
"Well, don't you kids look adorable? Here's some candy for everyone!"
The nice lady gives each of the ponies and the Werewolf Pirate Zombie a gratuitous amount of candy for their bag. When she turns to Clare, however, she gives her a frown.
"What are you supposed to be, Edward Cullen?"
Clare gapes. "I'm just a random vampire!"
The lady doesn't seem to believe her and gives Clare some black licorice. "I ship Bella x Jacob, damn you." She then slams the door in her face.
Clare pouts, while Adam places his hand on her shoulder. "Don't worry, Clare! If it makes you feel better, I'll ship Bella x Edward with you!"
"…if it helps, I actually prefer Bella x Alice."
"Not helping, Rainbow Dash." Bianca says, filing her hooves... somehow. Fiona pouts at the younger girl.
The rejected vampire sighs, pinching the bridge of her nose. "Let's just go to the Halloween Contest…"
And so they did.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the 2011 Degrassi Halloween Contest! I can see that everyone here is all in the Halloween Spirit… so let's get this show on the road!" Sav says.
Everyone begins their applauses and cheers. They've done their dancing and partying in the school and now it was time to see which girl and guy were voted with the best costume.
Clare looked around. There were so many people will nice, well made costumes. Who was going to win?
"Now your male choice for best costume is… Adam Torres as a Werewolf… Pirate… Zombie… thing…" Holly J. says, reading off of the card and looking at it weirdly.
Adam was ecstatic. He happily runs up to the stage, getting the shared $250 dollar prize. Clare and Eli applauded for their friend.
"And your female choice for best costume is… Bianca DeSousa as Fluttershy from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic!" Sav says, easily hiding a surprised tone that was begging to come out.
"B! You won! Go up there!" Imogen says, nudging her friend.
"Yeah, Bianca! Congrats!" Eli also says, giving her a pony hug.
Bianca walks to the stage slowly before facing the audience. Damn… she was on stage with practically the whole Degrassi population… in a My Little Pony costume. Could this day get any more embarrassing?
"Okay guys, get together! This picture's going in the year book!" Holly J. tells them, holding up a camera.
God, this was going to put a huge dent in her reputation for years to come…
