-JUST SPOOK ME ONCE, NO MORE-

---

T'was a great day in the ever glowing city of Alto Mare. The birds were chirping, the author was updating, the skies were the greatest colour of blue ever seen, the wind was light and perfect, the citizens were chatting happily among themselves, and a certain school of students were especially happy because of one simple thing.

Orange and black ribbons hung from almost every lamppost; skull and ghost Pokémon decorations were hung around almost every house; even the occasional pumpkin found its way to doorsteps and windows, ready for the night's special event.

That's right, t'was Halloween!

"C'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon..." Kiera recited in anticipation as she watched the very slow clock move forward, slamming her hands lightly on the armrest of her chair of the afternoon classes, "C'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon..."

"It won't go faster you know." Kayla said in the seat next to her, dangling almost sideways to get at the right angle to paint her toenail a vibrant shade of gray (if that's possible).

"Kayla's right you know!" Addison magically appeared out of nowhere, pointing a finger upwards next to her face like those scientists on TV, "It's a proven fact that if you will it to go faster, it'll be a bitch and go much much slower!"

"Stop it, Addie," The girl next to her with light brown side swept bangs tugged the insane girl back to the front, "Don't shove your knowledge down people throats."

"But it's fun!" Addison pouted but kept her face forward like demanded. "You're not fun, Maikee."

"Calm down, you guys." Jean-Paul magically appeared out of nowhere with Étienne, smirking at the annoyed look Addison shot him, "Nice to see you two, blueberry."

"Just because I have blue streaks does not mean you can call me blueberry!" Addison bellowed, stabbing her index finger into the boy's chest. "Why do you have to be so mean?"

"Why do you have to be tellement adorable?" (...so cute?) He replied hotly without even realizing what he said. A few more seconds later found Jean-Paul with a blanched face.

Addison's cheeks tinted towards pink, "What? I'm not allowed to be cute?"

"No!" He growled, "It's too distracting!"

"Aah? Okay..." Addison raised an eyebrow, getting a little worried for the boy's sanity.

Jean-Paul rolled his eyes and ushered her away from the group, "Viens avec moi pour une seconde." (Come with me for a second.)

Addison blinked and tilted her head to the side, but followed nonetheless, "Sure?"

"Thanks for babysitting Honey and Sugar while I was in detention!" The boy with bright red hair chirped, taking back the Pokéballs of his Snubbull and Skitty from the shy boy, "It means a lot!"

"D-de rien!" (I-it's nothing!) Étienne smiled lightly at Quincey before returning his eyes forward to watch the match.

"Pst! Quincey!" Jessica hissed with a grin, both her and LeiMei waving the curious boy closer, "Tell us what happened with Lance again!"

Quincey beamed and proceeded to do so, not failing in adding exaggerated arm movements.

"Darren!" Alexis exclaimed from the coordinating side of the field, "I will beat you today!"

"Fat chance!" Darren yelled back in determination, tossing out his first Pokéball, "Go Swampert!"

"SO I DID HURD YOU LEIK MUDKIPZ!" Alexis gasped in surprise before tossing out her own Pokéball, "GO, SHADOW!"

And so her Absol met his Swampert in an epic staring contest of doom.

On the other side of the field, where most of the battling was being done, a certain pair of friends was battling it out.

Rin pointed forward epically, "Go Stefen!" She ordered her Metagross while her Azurill hopped obliviously on her tail next to her, "Use Psychic!"

"Quick Drake!" The girl across from Rin with waist length white hair in a ponytail cried, "Repulse it with Ominous Wind before it's too late!"

"Uggh!" A girl seated nearby whined, pulling her silver hair forward to clog her nose, "Seriously, Hina?"

Hina grinned sheepishly before waving at her and the boys seated behind her, "Glad to see you came!"

Nick nodded his head lazily before tucking his head into his chest and taking a small nap. Sasha nudge the boy on her other side, and he stopped pulling his determined face to blink in confusion.

"Huh?" Sasha nodded her head at the last member of their team fighting on stage and he brightened up, "Oh!" He got up and his determined look returned, "You better beat her, Hina! Or else you won't be considered a member of our team of elites anymore!"

"When were we called elites?" Sasha wondered aloud, sending him a look.

He waved her off and turned his attention back to Hina when she yelled back, "SIR YESSIR, MASTER GILES!"

"GOOD!"

"Sush, you two!" Belwen snapped from a few rows above, "I'm trying to read up here!"

"Don't care!"

"C'mon Rin!" Sam and Jason yelled together, thrusting pumped fists above their heads, "You can do it!"

"Hey!" Alexis yelled offended from the other field, "I'm here too, you know!"

"Don't worry, Lexi!" William smiled encouragingly, "I'm cheering you on!"

Alexis blushed and stammered for a few seconds before beaming back, "T-thank you!"

"Don't listen to him, sis!" Jacob tried to distract his sister when she called an attack, "You suck!"

"When I'm off this stage..." Alexis waved a fist threateningly in their direction, "I'm going to—Quick, Shadow! Jump on his Hammer Arm and use Night Slash!"

"I don't think so!" Darren replied with gusto, "Use Ice Beam, Swampert!"

"Oh wow," Rymero said to Zak, Xavier, and Andrew, the four of them seated in a square, "Is it just me, or are they more riled up than the usual?"

Zak smirked and shook his head, his Lucario sliding into a seat next to him, "It's because it's Halloween and they're going to go Trick or Treating."

"Aren't they a little too old for that?" Andrew asked in turn, crossing his arm with a raised eyebrow.

Xavier scowled at him, "Halloween is fun. Just because you don't enjoy it, doesn't mean we can't."

"Are you going to wear a costume then?" Rymero interfered, in hopes that it would stop any incoming fights.

"Oh yeah!" Xavier smirked and nodded to himself, "I'm going to be a mad scientist! Fear me!"

"Cu-cubone!" Skelly, his Cubone, agreed as she swung her bone around.

The door suddenly opened and the breeders and trainers in the gym all filed in. Cedric was talking with Tyson and Jillian, who were secretly holding hands, as he led them over to where everyone was seated around the middle. He took a seat in front of Kayla and Kiera while the couple he was with took the seat in front of him and next to Maikee.

Rebecca and Chanel entered a few seconds later, chatting idly before they both sent their siblings secret evil looks and sat with Jessica, LeiMei, and Quincey.

"Why are you guys here? Did something happen?" LeiMei asked as the girls seated themselves.

"Not really." Rebecca shook her head, brown hair swishing side to side, "Classes just ended early."

"Lucky!" Quincey whined, "I want classes to end early too!" He suddenly grinned and turned to Rebecca, "We should totally skip the rest of the class!"

"U-um..." Chanel glanced at her watch, "There's only five minutes left..."

"OH DARN!" Quincey scowled and crossed his arms with a pout, "That's just mean."

"There there?" Rebecca awkwardly patted his arm.

"Your sister still hates you." Andrew commented idly as he watched from afar. "And she's hooking up with that guy over there."

Xavier glared once more at him, "Shuddup you. And that's not hooking up." He pointed to the side where Jean-Paul and Addison were, "That's hooking up."

Truth be told, the two were standing near the door for the emergency exit and were chatting quite animatedly.

"J'te comprends pas!" (I don't understand you!) Addison said, crossing her arms, "You're acting weirder and weirder everyday!"

"Am not!" Jean-Paul defended, "J'ai toujours agi comme moi-même!" (I've always been acting like myself!)

She scoffed and looked away, refusing to meet his eyes, mumbling, "...Doesn't look like it!"

"Addison," He suddenly turned serious, grabbing her shoulders, "Look at me."

"No." She closed her eyes to prove her point, feeling slight heat rush up to her cheeks.

"Look at me, Addie~" His voice rose until it was teasing. Her ears twitched in alarm, but she stubbornly kept her eyes closed.

"No." She repeated.

"Don't tell me I didn't warn you then." He said before she felt arms wrap around her being. She snapped her eyes open in an instant when she was hoisted onto his shoulder.

"Put me down!" She howled, small fists hitting his back. "Put me down, I say!"

"I don't think so~" JP sing-sang, skipping around which made her bounce uncomfortably.

"Oh yes." Rymero nodded with a grin, eyes flashing in amusement, "They totally love each other."

"Totally." The other three guys chimed together.

"Yo, Gossip Girls!" Kiera cried as she turned around and waved at the four guys at the top rows, "Get down here!"

They all scowled in perfect sync at the insult before sliding down the rows to join her and Kayla.

"What's up?" Zak asked.

Kiera held up at finger to silence him. "Wait a second. It's going to start."

"What's going to start?" Rymero asked as he took the seat next to Zak.

"The dreaded countdown." Kayla answered, finally done drying the last of her toenails.

"Five!" Quincey, Jessica, and LeiMei started, all jumping to their feet.

"Four!" Sam, Jason, William, Jacob, and Addison joined in (even if the later was still on JP's back) as most of them hopped to their feet.

"Three!" Rin, Hina, Alexis, and Darren all returned the Pokémon they had unleashed on the field.

"It's only Halloween!" Rebecca cried to herself in exasperation, "Why a countdown?"

"Two...!"

And then the dreaded number came.

"ONE!" Everyone yelled together at the end, save for a few brave souls who decided that they were better than the countdown and stayed in their seats doing nothing.

Silence. Crickets chirped from an undetermined area in the room.

"What was supposed to happ—" Andrew turned to Zak to ask, only to get abruptly cut off by the loud noise of the bell.

That's when hell broke loose in the form of the students.

"FREEEEEE!" Addison broke from Jean-Paul so that she can join the girls and pull them out of the room, "GIANT SLEEPOVER IN THE GIRLS' LOUNGE! EVERYONE'S INVITED!"

A few nameless boys gave them hopeful expressions.

Jillian smiled sweetly at them, "Everyone but the boys, of course."

The nameless boys were soon overwhelmed with so much despair and angst that they were never mentioned ever again. ("Serves you right." Kiera snickered tauntingly at them behind their backs.)

-LINEBIATCH-

"You guys ready?" Kayla asked from the other side of the bathroom door. The lounge had been set up with a thousand mattresses, blankets and pillows for the sleepover, and those who decided not to go Trick or Treating happily cleared a corner to fill the area with straightening iron, curling irons—every kind of irons, really—and make up.

"Yup!" Sam chirped as she worked on transforming Maikee's hair pin-straight. LeiMei was seated next to them, getting her hair crimped to perfection by Rebecca.

"Behold!" Kayla chirped as she strutted in, kicking a few stray pillows aside to make room for a make-shift cat walk. Jessica and Jillian followed close behind, hands on their hips as they showed off their outfits.

Kayla had her long brown hair pulled back into a cute French braid, letting a few loose locks frame her face. She fixed the fake glasses on her nose and waved her wand after a small twirl, her cape fluttering around to show a form-fitting dark blue dress underneath. She was a Wizard obviously, and her Honchkrow preening its wings on the couch was played with until he looked like an owl. A very sexy owl, of course.

Jessica had her red hair straightened and held down with a golden headband. She wore a long flattering white dress, a brown belt covered her waist with a small single piece of material separating itself at the front. She wore golden bracelets all along both of her arms, fulfilling her Cleopatra costume, as she strutted behind Kayla with Sparky, who had her fur slightly coloured red (too much chemicals is bad) with little horns tied to her head to make her look like a little devil.

Jillian had her usual straight black hair prepped into perfect curls around her shoulders, a thin headband holding the fluffy white maid hat on her head. She wore the black and white maid outfit, frills almost everywhere, and knee-high white socks with cute black shoes. Unlike the usual slutty maid outfit, this one didn't show much cleavage, perfect for a night out in the town. Her Torchic chirped on her shoulder, in a cute matching maid costume (altered to fit).

"EEEEEEEEPPP!" Addison squealed, clapping her hands animatedly, "YOU THREE ARE SO CUTE! I COULD JUST EAT YOU ALL UP!"

Bree sent her a side glare, "You better not."

Addison stuck her tongue out at her before jumping to her feet, "I'm next! YOU TWO—!" She pointed at Bree and Chanel before grabbing their wrists and dragging them away to the bathroom. "—ARE COMING WITH MEH!"

"Is she okay?" LeiMei whispered to Maikee, using the back of her hand to hide what she was saying. The girl next to her shrugged her shoulders and waited for the others to come out.

"I wonder what the guys are doing..." Rin placed a finger to her lips as she pondered.

-LINEBIATCH-

The boys, however, were not having a sleepover. They were still in their lounge though, and they were almost all completely set up in their costumes, when Quincey just decided to suddenly burst into the room wearing something they never expected.

First comes the gawking.

The second is the insanity.

And third is the one with the really awkward silence.

"...Really, Quincey?" Jacob asked in exasperation, yet still having a small smile on his lips. He was fully clad in his black ninja outfit, every inch of his body covered by the dark material except for his face. "...a full body bunny costume?"

The giant living moving bunny gave him a thumbs up. The red head's voice could be heard from the inside, "Girls dig it!"

Almost all the guys considered changing into the giant bunny suit for a split second before chuckling and shaking their heads at the idea.

"You're insane man." Jason commented with a smirk as he brushed his Flygon. He wasn't going to be Trick or Treating this year. Oh no, he wasn't; he had something more sinister in mind. (Heheheheh...)

"It's who I am!" Quincey whined playfully as he pulled the boy in for a really fluffy hug, "You know you want this!"

"Oh yeah, totally!" Darren teased with a wiggle of his eyebrows, pulling on his Professor Oak coat and gelling back half of his hair and messing up the other side. "What do you guys think?" He posed, pulling a book open in front of his very serious face, "Do I look like Prof Oak?"

He received nods. He beamed happily and dramatically wiped away a few fake tears.

-LINEBIATCH-

"Here we go! TOTALLY AWESOME QUEEN ADDIE WILL COME OUT NOW!"

"Boo!" Bree whined in the background.

"SHUSH YOU!" The doors were flung open. In came Addison, brown hair pulled up in two small ponytails by small red clips while the rest was let down. She wore a light white dress with a bow at front and cute little matching sandals. "I'm gym leader Jasmine!"

Clapping. Addie posed for the camera (Rin and Hina were taking pictures of everyone).

Bree stalked forward and nudged her aside, showing off her own homemade Umbreon outfit that fit her like a glove. She disguised her Shinx on her shoulder into a matching Eevee.

Chanel came out after, dressed in a cute little Alice in Wonderland costume, her usual wavy—from the side braid she always wears—blond hair was let down and held back with a small black bow. She held her Marill in her arms, a small black bow tied to its ear to match her outfit.

"Scoot closer, Chanel!" Rin made elaborate hand movements before all the three dressed up girls made faces at the camera, while Hina grimaced in concentration before snapping the picture.

"Got it!" Hina passed the camera to Rin before scooting her own booty into the bathroom, "My tu-rn!"

"Wait for us!" Alexis cried as she ran after the girl, LeiMei and Maikee—hair finished—at her heels.

-LINEBIATCH-

"Everyone ready?" Zak asked as he pulled up the hood to his cloak.

"Wait, there's a bunch of us. How will we all go out without getting too noticed by the citizens?" Tyson asked, clad in a very adorable Snorlax costume, Mime Jr. on his shoulder copying him.

"How about we split up into our teams and treat this like a mission?" Jean-Paul asked with a small grin as he set his Cowboy hat on top of his blond hair. His cousin Étienne was standing next to him in a very sexy looking chef costume. "With a side bonus of candy."

"Booyah!" William high fived the man. Said person was wearing a tux and had all his brown hair gelled back to look like James bond with cool sunglasses over his awesome green eyes. He just knew that a certain girl was going to swoon over him.

"Shall we go get our female companions then?" Cedric grinned, fiddling with the annoying eye patch of his pirate costume, his Chatot looking like a parrot on his shoulder. ("BAWK! FEMALE COMPANIONS! BAWK!")

"Let's!"

And so the boys walked over and knocked on the door.

"Hello boys!" Kayla wiggled her eyebrows seductively when she opened the door to them. "We're all ready! Just wait a few more seconds, okay? We'll meet you at the museum's main entrance."

"Got it!" Giant pink bunny Quincey gave another thumbs up.

Kayla blinked in surprise and slowly inched backwards, "...Okay then..."

-LINEBIATCH-

"Why didn't Rin and Jace come with us?" Xavier asked as he ran a hand through his already dishevelled hair, stepping outside the museum into the cool air. Chanel squeaked and hurried to keep up with her only team member, dodging around his Cubone that was begging him to be carried.

"U-umh..." She concentrated more on speed walking than answering his question. How the heck was he walking faster when they were the same height? "I-I think Rin had s-some chores to do..."

"And the playboy is out with hookers."

"I-I'm s-sure he wouldn't be out with h-h-ho-hoo—" Her face turned red in embarrassment at just trying to say the word. Fortunately for her, he interrupted her before she could humiliate herself any further.

"You need to stop stuttering. It's annoying." He looked at her with his slightly annoyed brown eyes.

She squeaked, lifting her Marill up to hide a part of her still blushing face. "S-sorry!"

"Xav! Chichi!" Cedric cried as he suddenly pounced on the duo, Kayla magically appearing next to them at the same time. "Wait for us!"

Xavier raised an eyebrow, "Why do we have to?"

"Because!" Kayla crossed her arms and pouted at them, "We're two teams with only two members. Let's go together!"

Chanel gnawed on her lower lip nervously, sending her twin an evil look which he then ignored, shuffling closer to her and practically hugging the life out of her smaller self. She sent her partner pleas of help with her eyes, and she was pretty sure they were ignored until—

"I don't see why we have to." Xavier sneered as he crossed his arms and started walking away, "Come on, Chanel. We're going."

"A-ah! Yes!" Chanel hurried to fight against her brother's arms before running after her saviour.

"DON'T YOU DARE DO ANYTHING TO MY SISTER, XAV!"

-LINEBIATCH-

"What are you doing, Jason?" Alexis asked with a raised eyebrow, hands on her hips, as she watched him mount his Flygon. She was fully clad in black and had on cool shades to finish her spy outfit. "Aren't you coming Trick or Treating?"

"I've got a better idea..." He smirked, it reflecting evilly with the shadows cast from the lamp post.

Zak and Alexis both shared a look before shrugging, going closer to the boy to listen to his evil plan.

-LINEBIATCH-

"This way! This way!" Addison cried as she ran forward with her Leafeon at her heels, pulling Jillian along by her arm as she rushed down up streets, "They say the houses who give away the most candy are on top of that hill!"

"Chill Addie!" Jean-Paul called in a laugh, hands in his pockets as he walked with the usually silent Étienne. "On a toute la soirée!" (We have the whole night!)

"Non on a pas!" (No we don't!) Addie yelled back over her shoulder as she paused, "If we don't hurry up, they'll run out of candy!"

"No way!" Jean-Paul gasped dramatically, placing a hand over his heart as if she had wounded him, "Why didn't you just say so earlier?"

Addie rolled her eyes at his antics but couldn't pull off her grin, "I would've! But you were holding me as your hostage!"

Jean-Paul scratched his chin thoughtfully, "I do make a good evil villain, don't I?" Étienne gave him a worried look and JP grinned and messed up his hair. "Don't worry! I'm not going to be evil!"

The four of them continued on their way up the hill.

"...yet..."

Everyone then proceeded to smirk at JP with mockingly narrowed eyes.

-LINEBIATCH-

"FEAR THE REAPER!" A low spooky voice howled into the night as it crept closer and closer. Hina squeaked in horror and pounced on Bree, clinging onto her arm like her life depended on it. Hina wasn't a part of their team, but since no one else in her group wanted to go (Sasha doesn't celebrate it and had went to go train her Pokémon, Giles think it's too immature, and Nick thinks it's too much of a bother).

"Wh-what was that?" She breathed, holding on tighter when a branch suddenly snapped behind her, "Did you hear that?"

Bree craned her head back and stared at the person behind them, "That was Quincey."

Said boy grinned and slowly twisted his bunny foot on the item to make more noise. "You should've seen your face, Hina."

"FEAR THE REAPER!" The voice mysteriously continued, sounding even closer to them. LeiMei let out a small squeal and looked wildly from side to side, clinging tighter and blocking blood circulation in Bree's arm.

"Can you let go?" The human Umbreon finally snapped, trying to futilely pull her arm away.

"B-but!" She squeaked before whirling around and glaring at Quincey, "You gotta stop saying that! We know it's you!"

Quincey raised an eyebrow and frowned in confusion, "All I've been doing was walking on branches to scare you guys."

"And I—" William stepped in to save his own butt before they could jump to conclusion and blame him, "—have been decorating Churchill with Union Jacks."

And it was true. His Rampardos was walking next to the boy, looking slightly unhappy, with bright red, blue, and white stickers of the flag all over his head.

Bree smirked in amusement, "Why would you do that?"

"To match." The boy placed yet another sticker on Churchill.

"But you're James Bond."

"So?"

"FEAR THE REAPER!"

A loud dragon cry erupted in the night, and a dark figure swooped in their direction on a giant bird. Hina screamed and was suddenly glad had left her Togepi egg in her room; she would've crushed it too tight from fear.

"Get down!" William cried as it came closer, pulling his Pokémon with him. The rest followed closely, just a second before the person glided past over their heads. Will got up on one knee to stabilize himself and nudged his Pokémon. "Use Flamethrower and bring him down!"

"PaaaaarrrrDOS!" The being cried as it unleashed the giant flames, illuminating the sky—but mostly his owner's face—as it targeted on the enemy. Now with the light of the fire, he could recognize the back of the Pokémon as a Flygon.

Just when it was going to hit, the large insect Pokémon twisted in midair and unleashed its own purple blast of flames and wind. Both attacks neutralized in midair and the Flygon and his rider bolted back in their direction with another cry.

"Not again!" Quincey bunny cried, holding onto his cute little bunny head (so that it wouldn't fall off). He attempted to run to the side to avoid getting hurt, but with Honey the Snubull tangled into his ankles, he could only faceplant in the ground instead (which did help him avoid the giant flying Pokémon anyway).

"Athens! Use Thunderbolt!" Bree pointed forward, the Eevee-looking Shinx on her shoulder hopped off and unleashed a mighty bolt of lightning, heading straight for the flying creature.

It hit, maybe sizzled the rider, but the Flygon twisted in midair and turned back towards them with no signs that it hurt, just looking enraged in the barely visible light. It suddenly attacked with more purple flames as it flew down close towards them.

"Scatter!" William yelled when he spotted Quincey on the ground. He sighed in relief as the girls took initiative of the boy and dragged him out of the way of the attack. He concentrated on dodging the attack with all his James Bond glory, his Rampardos following him but at the same time trying to swipe the Flygon even though it was so high up.

"Go Drake!" Once they were at a safe distance away, Hina unleashed her only Pokémon. The bright light illuminated the sky for a split second as the Dusknoir appeared. "Cloak us with Ominous Wind!"

The air became thick and vile, all the trainers blocking their noses. The Flygon fluttered a few ways above, ineffectively trying to blow away the smelly smog, all the while exchanging blasts of purple flames with Rampardos' Flamethrowers.

Quincey considered having his Pokémon attack, but both of his creatures were close range fighters, and won't be able to land a hit on the Flygon unless it came closer.

"Drake," Hina whispered to her Pokémon, making sure Bree and Quincey were good for a few seconds, "Sneak in the shadows and then knock the trainer off with Nightshade."

No other words needing to be shared, Drake vanished into the smog. Bree quickly recalled her Shinx while they were hidden, and then threw out her Umbron's ball. Draco let out a low growl and flashed its blue circles (shiny Pokémon) menacingly when it noticed it was circled with awful smelling fog.

"FEAR THE REAPER!" A high pitched voice howled nearby as the smog finally vanished, showing a clear view of a cloaked figure slowing walking in their direction, his scythe flashing dangerously in the moonlight.

"Who's that?" Bree hissed.

"I don't know. But whoever it is needs to stop!" Quincey cried dramatically, jumping on his heels as he made a Superman pose.

"SILENCE FOOLS!" The cloaked figure howled menacingly, stopping all of them in once clear instant. However, it was at that moment that Drake appeared with his Nightshade, knocking off the Flygon trainer as he flailed comically in mid air before landing on Churchill. "PLEASE IGNORE THE PERSON FLYING IN MIDAIR!"

William, once noticing the sheepish looking trainer on his Pokémon, backpedalled and slapped himself to make sure he was okay.

"Jason?" He hissed with an accusing finger, "What the hell?"

-LINEBIATCH-

"Thank you!" Jessica and Maikee chimed as they left yet another house, bags filled with an unlimited amount of candy that resembled almost Mt. Chimney. Tyson was waiting on the sidewalk, his two bags already filled as his Drifblim held onto the girl's fist bags (since they were on their seconds).

"I can't believe how much we got!" Jessica squealed for the umpteenth time, still unable to get over how much sweets they had gotten. Maikee nodded furiously, struggling to pull the bag on her shoulder.

"I think we should return to the school and dump these somewhere..." Tyson advised, waving at the bags that even his Drifblim had some difficulty carrying. "After eating all of this, we're all going to blow up."

"True that!" Maikee grinned, and instead of putting the bag on her shoulder, she called out her Venusaur and had him carry it instead. Maikee was also dressed from head to toe in black, but she had cute little kitty ears on top of her straight hair and a tail popping out from under her skirt, white whiskers marked on her cheeks.

"But it's totally worth it!" Cleopatra-Jessica chirped as she pumped a hand over her head.

-LINEBIATCH-

"Darren, where are we?" LeiMei, epic Vampire Ghost of doom, twitched as the boy started to turn horror-struck, "Don't tell me you're lost. AGAIN."

"I-I'm not!" Darren stuttered, looking back and forth at all of the forks in the area they were. They had lost themselves in an alley because of a shortcut Darren insisted on trying, but of course, this got them lost in the middle of nowhere. The back of the buildings all looked the same; tall, white, ancient. And added the fact that it was dark and Halloween, it was really a bad idea to even go in the first place.

"Are you sure?" Sam asked as she looked at the little bird bath in front of them, "This is like the tenth time we've been here."

"Okay, okay, fine!" Darren pointed down the hall to his left, "We'll go over there!"

"Are you sure?" Jacob squinted down the alley, "We came from there."

Darren spluttered before heading the complete opposite direction, "This way!"

"Wait!" Sam cried in horror as the boy didn't even bother to watch where he was going, "Wall!"

"What?" Darren snapped his eyes open, unable to stop himself from hitting the end. He held out his hands to stop himself, only to fall over when his hands went through it and he landed on his face. He groaned and lifted himself from the ground, only to gasp at what he saw.

"Oh man. I'm must be dreaming this!"

-LINEBIATCH-

"Sorry!" Jason scratched the back of his head nervously, "I usually play tricks on people for Halloween!"

"But why us?" Quincey asked, glancing a couple of times at Zak, who was disguised as the Grim Reaper, and Alexis, who had a blow horn in her hand and was the one who kept saying FEAR THE REAPER in the background.

Jason grinned and pointed at him, "Look at yourself, man! You're shaking!"

"Am not!"

Indeed he wasn't. But the others thought it would be a good idea to keep on teasing him about it anyways.

"Aw!" Alexis grinned, "Does the great big bunny want a hug?"

"Yes!" The boy howled as he considered getting free hugs from girls for FREE, but yet still pouting (but it couldn't be seen inside his giant bunny head).

Next thing the boy knew, he was attacked by Alexis and Hina into death hugs.

-LINEBIATCH-

"Woa!" Sam gasped as she peeked her head through the wall before completely stepping through with her Zangoose, "What is this place?"

"I don't know..." LeiMei followed them and walked over to the stairs, "...but I never knew such a place existed!"

Jacob crossed his arms and raised an eyebrow at his friends, "What are you talking about? I can't see a thing!"

Lei rolled her eyes, "That's not exactly what we mean! All we're saying is that we never knew that a secret garden existed behind the museum!"

"Ohhh!" Jacob's mind clicked in tune, "Now I get it!"

"But why would there be such a weird entrance?" Darren asked as he brushed himself off. He straightened and squinted through the darkness, "Jacob's right though, I can't see a single—OW! WHAT THE HECK!"

"What? What happened?" Sam asked as soon as she saw him wince and fall back to the ground by some invisible force, "What was that?"

"I don't know..." LeiMei went into a fighting stance, her Froslass hovering protectively in front of her. "...but everyone get ready for anything. Who knows what's in here."

-LINEBIATCH-

"This is sooo boring..." Rin whined as she flipped through a random magazine, "Maybe I should've gone with them Trick or Treating..."

"Hey guys!" Jessica chirped as she slammed the door to the lounge open, "We're back!"

"Yeah!" Maikee pulled in her bags after recalling her Venusaur (he was too big to fit through the door), "And we brought candy too!"

"Yes!" Kiera flew from her position of playing Halo alone and nearly tackled the two girls to the ground, "Can I have some? Please please please please?"

"Are you sure you didn't already have some?" Rin asked, grabbing one of the many large bags and helping Jessica drag them in, "OH EM GEE! What's in these things? Bowling balls?"

Maikee shifted her eyes from side to side, "...Maybe..."

Rebecca rolled her eyes and flipped another page in her book, "Hurry and close the door! You're freezing the indoors!"

"Yes mom!" Came the synched reply.

-LINEBIATCH-

"There!" LeiMei called from the top of the tree she was hiding in, pointing at something shifting in the leaves, "Use Blizzard, Frost!"

The Froslass struck out her hands near the end of the branch they were on, and a cold blast of chilling ice materialized out of nowhere as it tracked the shifting invisible creature. The air grew colder and harsher, not only was the attack going for the invisible being, but it froze all the trees, bushes, and soil nearby.

Lei tightened her cape around her shoulders, silently cursing herself for such a thin costume, before she gasped as the branch she was standing on was suddenly hit and broke. She squeaked, forgetting her cape as she hurried to grab onto the next branch before she would land harshly on the frozen ground.

"Are you okay, Lei?" Jacob asked as he jumped on a branch above her like a ninja, along with his Lucario (they were both disguised as ninjas too, so it made sense). His dark outfit made him blend into the darkness easily as he moved with quick reflexes.

"I'm okay." Lei leaned against the tree trunk as she calmed down, "Just a little spooked."

"Okay. Be careful." He said before jumping into another tree and dashing off to make sure his other comrades were okay. He paused for a second before ducking, an Ice Beam attack narrowly missing the top of his messy brown hair.

He scowled and followed the attack, spotting Darren shooting attacks in almost every direction.

Jacob paused a few meters away and knelt down to squint through the leaves to see better, his Lucario doing the same. The boy's dark brown eyes followed the attacks relentlessly, looking for something that might be the key to what could help him.

That's when he saw it.

An Ice Beam got redirected.

"Aura Sphere, go!"

Without even more of a delay, the orb of pure aura flew from his side and hit the creature dead on, removing its invisible cloak as it winced in pain and let out a small cry.

The lower half of the body was red with jet-plane wings and stubby feet, while the upper half was white. There was a blue triangle-shaped ring on its chest that and it had triangle-shaped ears and a red face with a white pentagon in the middle.

"No way..." He gasped, freezing up at the legendary Pokémon in front of his very eyes, "That's Latias..."

That's when things turned for the worse and he was suddenly propelled to the ground by yet another unexplainable force.

-LINEBIATCH-

Sam was dashing through the trees at nearly the same speed as her Zangoose (she practiced really hard to achieve this feat) as she narrowly missed DragonBreath attacks left and right, unable to shake the invisible Pokémon behind her off her tail.

She finally broke into a clearing, and in the center of it all there was a large fountain. Just as she thought about jumping over it, she froze when she heard voices and hid behind a large tree, pulling her Zangoose with her. The Pokémon behind her seemed to feel this too and stopped attacking all together, which made Sam wonder where it was.

"Is this where it is?" A rough male voice asked as he slinked out of the shadows behind a smaller being.

"Yes. I came earlier." A smaller high pitched voice replied softly, it coming from the small cloaked being at the front, "It's in that fountain."

"Good." The male voice replied, and the both of them gathered at the edge of the large fountain. "This will help me immensely."

To Sam's surprise, the larger cloaked figure suddenly turned on his heel and started walking away.

"W-what are you doing?" The smaller figure ran behind him, "Aren't you going to take the Soul Dew?"

Soul Dew? Sam repeated in her head. What's that?

"Not yet." The male voice interrupted, "If I want my plan to work, I can't take it just yet."

"If you're sure." The small person's head suddenly snapped in Sam's direction and said girl froze. "It's here."

It?

Wind chimes surprisingly came to life at that moment as she felt the rush of something from behind her into the clearing. Still not seeing what happened to create such, she guessed it was the invisible being that decided to chase her and watched as a DragonBreath was unleashed.

To her immense surprise, the two cloaked being gracefully jumped out of the way—one of them even doing a back flip!—before the one who did so adjusted something on his face and addressed the air, his voice wavering with arrogance.

"Good to finally see you, Latios."

Hey guys! Good news I guess, no questions for you today! You guys better enjoy this chapter! I have been practically killing myself with music to get myself moving!

Oh hey, my food's ready. GOT TO GO!

~MARMAR! This next part created by Meri47!

It was almost a dark and stormy night.

It was, you know, it really was. But since it was snowing for about the tenth time in as many days, that sort of took away from the stormy bit. The fact that it looked so pretty helped too.
MarMar was sitting in her dinky apartment, eating popcorn, and listening to Volcaloid. MarMar laughed.

"Hehehee...I've got Popcorn, Volcaloid, 20,000 Free Channels on my TV(Thank you, Raichu Component), and the new episodes are up and running on the air...It's just about perfect now..."

"MARMAR! MARMAR! OPEN-THE-DOOR! IT'S ME: MERI! I-HAVE-A-CRISIS!"

MarMar decided that the Gods were in a vindictive mood.

-LINEBIATCH-

Meri was pacing a groove in the floor, moaning. It was over- IT WAS ALL OVER!

MarMar stared at her with a mix of pity, frustration, and a general peeved off grumpiness.

"What the heck is wrong, Meri? You're ruining my happy mojo here! Are you having problems with the Lawn Gnomes again? I keep telling you, you have to be very firm with them, you give those little devils an inch, and the next thing you know you're waking up tied to the bed with a bunch of them sitting on your chest staring at you!"

Meri stared miserably at MarMar. "I... lost my... cat..."

There was utter silence.

Meri could sense a storm approaching that rivalled the ones that had been wreaking havoc recently, and attempted to head it off. "My cat, Maggie? Do you remember her? I think you should, you were there when she met that Jack Russell Terrier and—"

MarMar winced. "Oh. OH. Hey, did that little guy get to the hospital OK?"

"What? Oh yeah, he's fine, but every time he seem either of us now he starts running like blazes to- GAH! PLEASE, MARMAR, DON'T GET ME OFF TOPIC! THIS-IS-SERIOUS!"

MarMar started snickering. "Oh, come on, Meri-How bad can it be that your cat stepped out for a bit? I'm sure that you'll figure out that she's just holed up somewhere sleeping-"

"I can't make any new OCs for you without her. She's my muse."

"...What?"

Meri got a look in her eye that said: I know that I'm gonna die, but I'm not going to go down without a fight! "So, Partner, that means that with no Cat, no new actors."

MarMar gnawed her lip. "Give me my phone, Meri. You'll have your cat back."

-LINEBIATCH-

Milsu was playing with his gerbil happily when the phone rang.

"This is Milsu, what can I do for yo-ou?"

"Milsu? It's MarMar. You know how I helped you find your gerbil the other day?"

"Yeah, and I appreciated it too, by the way, I really—"

"I'm calling that favor in. Now. Tonight."

"REALLY? MarMar, IT'S SNOWING HARD OUT RIGHT NOW, REALLY!"

"Meri lost her cat."

"Who lost what now?"

"Meri did, her cat Maggie. You know, the one who I send out to blackma—I mean convince to come work for me as actors?"

"The short one, with the creepy look in her eyes?"

"Yup."

"Do I have to?"

"Do I have to come over there? DO YOU WANT ME TO COME OVER THERE?"

"I—"

"MERI CAN'T WORK WITHOUT HER CAT. AND WITHOUT MERI WORKING, HER ACTORS AREN'T WORKING EITHER! AND DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I NEED HER ACTORS, YOU PRIMORDIAL PROTOZOA? DO YOU?"

"...OK! OK, I'll find that cat, DON'T KILL ME!"

-LINEBIATCH-

Milsu sighed. Finding the cat had been easy enough...BUT HOW THE HECK HAD THAT CRAZY CAT GOTTEN INTO TROUBLE WITH THE MOB?

"It had to be the Mob...Of all the criminals in the world, it HAD to be the mob..."

Milsu began the art of neck cracking.

"OK Jacques...Let's do this thing!"

10 minutes later, Milsu was back in the getaway car with the cat, and had gone from zero to 120 MPH in about as many seconds.

"OH GOD, OH GOD, OH PEPPERMINT PATTIES, CHOCOLATE KISSES, BUTTER FINGER, SNICKERS! WE'RE GONNA DIE!"

"Cheep!"

"Jacques! You know that's not tested enough yet! What if-"

"CHEEP! CHE-CHE-CHE-CHEEP!"

"Jacques, I LOVE YOU TOO MAN! I LOVE YOU TOO!"

"Cheep...eepp.."

"You're right...Not the right moment...OK, take the S.U.N-Flower Seeds! GET ON THE PORTABLE TREADMILL! LET'S BLOW THIS POPSICLE STAND!"

-LINEBIATCH-

Mrs. Barlow was walking home from a very good rehearsal-excellent, in her mind- when she saw something that was rather strange.

It seemed to be something along the lines of a large black van that was flying through the air, as it also seemed to have lost the need to have all four tires on the road.

It was also on fire. Very on fire.

In fact, it was less of on fire, and more of a giant goldy-yellow ball of flame, with a screeching cat, a very loud "CHEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPPP!", and a person screaming: "YAAAAAHOOOOOOO! I'M !"
Mrs. Barlow stared after it.

Then she shook her head. Her therapist was going to LOVE this one...

-LINEBIATCH-

MarMar watched Meri hugging her cat and sobbing.

"Milsu, I don't know how to thank you—otherwise, Meri might have gone catatonic, it was all I could do to keep her from screaming that the mini-chocolate bar in her head had orchestrated this whole thing..."

"The what? Mar, are you sure that she's OK to do this job—"

"As long as she doesn't go kookey on my dime, she can be as crazy as she likes."

"...O...K..."

MarMar smiled as the cat decided that it had had enough of Meri's cuddling, and began to claw at her eyes. "Oh, I meant to ask how did you get away from them?"

Milsu smiled happily. "Well, it's all because I'm a kick-ass driver, of course, I took those turns like I was in the Indy-500!"

MarMar laughed. "Milsu, your car fell apart in the parking space. And I think that it left flaming tire marks where you missed the entrance and crashed through the wall. I think you owe me an explanation, since I'm going to have to pay to have it fixed."

"OK, OK," Milsu laughed, "OK! I'll tell you...It all started when I wondered whether it was conceivable to power a car with a hamster wheel, if the gerbil had ingested nitrous in sunflower form to boost its speed...

THE END.

(To anyone who want to be in a random sketch like this, just tell me which Pokemon you ABSOLUTELY love and you will most likely join MarMar, Meri47, Milsu22 in their randum adventures XD)

~MARMAR

You better review.

Yeah, I thought so too.
