Welcome back!
Disclaimers: Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy and anything else is not mine.
So enjoy the second Halloween Special to grace the Day At The Castle fan fiction!
And this takes place a few weeks after the camping arc.
I know it's late, I know I got lazy at the last bit and for the readers of the Pranks show; I will be uploading the Halloween Special by tomorrow.
Castle That Never Was: Kitchen
Saix, yawning sleepily, puts a kettle on the stove.
It was only about 7 AM but he always got up around the same time so why break a habit?
"Mmmmmm….." Saix walks over to the large wall calendar that hung right by the gray refrigerator and rips off the top paper, updating the date.
He studies the date, walks over to his kettle and lights the stove.
"October 31st…." He murmurs to himself. He drops the kettle.
"WHAT? It's Halloween?" Saix cries out as he grabs the calendar. A smiling pumpkin smirks at him from the corner of the paper.
"Eh? What's up, pup?" Axel asks as he walks into the kitchen, still in his pajamas. Saix rips the paper off of the calendar rapidly.
"Oh nothing! Would you like some coffee?" Saix asks quickly. Axel blinks in confusion.
"Uh… sure. Thanks." Axel says as he pulls out a mug and hands it to Saix. Xion and Roxas come in, bickering as usual.
"No! I won't take you!" Roxas snarls as he goes to the cereal cabinet and yanks out a box of Cocoa Puffs.
"Please! I want to go!" Xion protests angrily, looking as if she was about to burst into tears.
Saix was ready to jump in when Axel says something.
"Uh, what are you talking about?" Axel asks as he sips at his newly brewed coffee. Xion turns to Axel, the puppy eyed look on her face.
"Tell Roxas that he has to take me to Twilight Town today! Please, Axel?" Xion begs. Axel shrugs.
Saix nearly faints in relief; he had thought that Xion wanted to go trick-or-treating.
"Happy Halloween, everyone!" Demyx crows as he skips into the kitchen, already in his surfer's costume.
The trio stares at him.
"It's…. Halloween?" Axel asks in an excited voice.
Saix grabs Demyx and rushes him out of the kitchen.
"YOU IDIOT!" He snarls as he pins Demyx to the wall with his Claymore.
"What?" Demyx screams as the Berserk Nobody gives him the demon eye.
"Axel wasn't supposed to know that today was Halloween! Now he'll play pranks on everyone until midnight!" Saix growls.
Larxene walks past them.
"Get a room." She says sleepily.
"Oh… what's wrong with pranks?" Demyx asks curiously. A sudden high pitched shriek erupts from the kitchen as Larxene starts running.
"A MONSTER!" She screams as she runs towards her room to get her knives.
"…. Axel, did you hide in the fridge?" Saix demands quietly as Axel laughs.
"Hell yeah! I love Halloween! Let's go trick-o-treating, you two." Axel says eagerly. Roxas and Xion look at him in confusion.
"What's that?" Roxas asks. Axel's jaw drops.
"You don't- SAIX! You're supposed to teach them something as important like this!" Axel says in a disapproving voice.
Saix drops Demyx and goes for his cup of coffee.
"Shut up. You take them if you want to go so badly." He says, deciding to spend the holiday hiding on his Gummy Ship.
"Okay. Trick-or-treating is when you go up to people and ask for candy." Axel explains.
"But Xemnas said not to take candy from strangers!" Xion protests.
"Today is okay. Now… go put on your costumes and we'll head out." Axel says eagerly, excited about spending his favorite holiday with his friends.
"What costumes?" Roxas asks. Axel looks at him as if he had just killed a baby in front of him.
"YOUR HALLOWEEN COSTUMES." He snarls, pulling out his chakrams.
"Okay, okay!" Roxas and Xion run out of the room, terrified for their lives.
A Little While Later
Roxas and Xion come back in very interesting costumes.
Roxas, in all black clothes, was carrying a heavily bandaged sword and had spiked up his hair differently.
Xion had a green tube top and some tan shorts, her weapon was a large ninja star.
"Holy crap, you guys seriously look like Cloud and Yuffie!" Axel says in surprise. The two cosplayers grin at each other.
"Thanks! I'm the Great Ninja… Xion!" Xion says eagerly as she spins the Shuriken
around.
"Whatever." Roxas says, flicking his bangs out of his face in a near perfect impersonation of the real Cloud.
"So who are you, Axel?" Xion asks eagerly, staring at his costume.
"Well…uh, I'm Jason." Axel says as he pulls on a hockey mask and swings a fake machete around.
"Let's go get some candy!" Xion cheers, holding out a garbage bag.
Axel opens up a Corridor of Darkness which would ultimately lead to Destiny Islands.
"Let's go pick up some people, kay?"
Destiny Islands
"C'mon Riku! It's just for fun…" Sora says as he swings around a huge sword playfully. Riku rolls his eyes.
"We're kind of old for Halloween, aren't we?" He asks as he shrugs, his costume's wing fluttering awkwardly on his back.
Sora was dressed up like Leon and Riku had decided to be Sephiroth.
"You know something strange?" Namine asks curiously, adjusting her white baseball cap. The red Ping Pong ball flops around with every movement she makes.
"What is it, Namine?" Riku asks.
"Well, did you noticed we're all dressed up like Final Fantasy characters?" They glance at themselves and shrug.
"Hey guys!" Kairi runs up, getting her overly long pants out of the sand. Dressed in all bright yellow, it was more than a little hard to tell what Kairi was supposed to be.
"Uh…." Riku starts to say, staring at Kairi's yellow baseball cap which for some reason had a beak and eyes.
"A Chocobo?" Namine cries out in excitement. Kairi nods happily, pleased that someone could recognize her costume.
A huge Corridor of Darkness opens up right next to them.
Sora and Riku immediately summons up their Keyblades, ready to fight.
"Heeeeeey! What a cute costume!" Xion squeals as she tackles Kairi in a big hug.
"Yo." Roxas says in a weird voice, still trying to mimic Cloud. Badly but at least he got the look down.
The Destiny Island crew (and Namine) stare for a minute before bursting out into laughter.
"You look great!" Sora tells Roxas as Roxas and Riku glare at each other, their usual hate somehow emphasized by the costumes.
"Aren't I cute? I'm the Great Ninja Xion!" Xion says as she swings around her giant Shuriken and twirls so the girls could see her from every angle.
"Very nice, kupo." Namine agrees, her Moogle hat bobbing with her nod.
"Let's go get some candy." Axel says as they all stare at his blood soaked overalls.
They all agree and head out.
THREE HOURS LATER!
"Hahahahahahahahahaha!" The entire group was jittery and giggly. Even the usually solemn Riku was cracking up due to the influence of what looked like three four pounds bags of candy.
"You guys… are the only ones I've ever seen drunk on candy." Saix informs the gang as one by one, the sugar high wears off and they crash.
"Dude… You're just jealous cause it was one hell of an alcoholic free party." Axel says with a grin. He passes out as the last of the sugar wears off.
"I'll go get a mop… and a few Ethereal blades." Xemnas mutters darkly under his breath as he glares at the half asleep group.
