Usagi slid out of the emergency exit of the haunted house with a sigh. Why had she let Rei talk her into coming anyways? She flopped down on a bench and berated herself for being scared by a silly haunted house. She battled youma every day, but a few plastic skeletons had her shaking; it didn't make sense.
Glancing around her, Usagi looked for something else to occupy her time. Rei and Makoto would probably be in the haunted house for at least another half hour. Spotting a vendor's cart, Usagi started across the park. Food was always a good way to pass the time. When Usagi had reached the vendor, she saw that he had a variety of Halloween treats, including caramel apples. She hadn't had one since she was a child, so she quickly ordered one of the gooey goodies and handed over her money.
Settling quickly on a nearby bench, Usagi wasted no time in getting to work on the treat. But just as she had sunk her teeth into the sweet, crunchy apple, she heard a voice that caused her to rip it quickly from her mouth, leaving nothing but a mouthful of gooey caramel.
"What are you doing Odango Atama?"
Usagi tried to open her mouth to retort, but found that the caramel had stuck her teeth firmly together. Full of fury, she tried to call him "Baka" but the only sound she could produce was a strangled "Aga".
With a hearty laugh, Mamoru looked at the caramel apple waving in the poor, silenced girl's hand and proclaimed, "I've got to stock up on those things!"
He shook his head and walked away, still laughing, leaving a pink-cheeked Usagi behind to get herself out of her sticky situation.
