Phoenix and Maya walked happily next to the two young witches.
"Mystic Maya, why are we wearing costumes? This isn't one of your con-ven-shuns."
Trucy's mouth was a gape. "Pearly, you mean you've never been trick-or-treating before?"
"Trick-er treating?"
Phoenix chuckled, readjusting the cape of his vampire costume. "It's something kids get to do tonight, Pearls. Tonight's Halloween. Watch that group of kid's over there." He said, pointing to a group of kid's dressed as Steel Samurai characters.
Pearl watched as the group went to the door of a house and knocked on the door. She was amazed when the person in the house opened the door and handed the children free candy!
Pearl gasped. "Mr. Nick, did those kids just get candy!?"
Maya giggled underneath her zombie make-up. "They sure did, Pearly. Nice people give kids free candy on Halloween. And mean people…"
"Get nothing, Maya." Phoenix scolded the woman, trying avoid her going into detail about the 'trick' aspect of the holiday.
"Ugh, Nick, you're such an old fart!"
Phoenix simply sighed as he led the group to a nearby house.
"Ok, Pearly," Trucy started "When they open the door, you have to hold out your bag and yell 'Trick-or-treat!'"
Pearl nervously chewed on her thumb. "O-ok. I'll try, Miss Trucy."
Phoenix smiled at the two young girls and rang the doorbell.
"Trick-or-treat!"
