SSF: Oh boy, Um hi everyone. I know I've been absent but-

Drocell: Make up a rediculous excuse I dare you

SSF: It's not an excuse! Okay basically, I've been to the cities this month a few times, and I've been writing 'Vacation With Friends' The Sequal to this, also when I was at the museum I went to a Pirate Exhibit in my State's Science Museum (Real Pirates, it focoused on pirates but mostly about the Whydah). Another thing, I've been counting down the weeks. In four weeks I will be leaving my home, and going to Orlando. Also I'm going to try to work ong etting my driver's liscense so I can drive myself to college. I decided to time skip to the Halloween section of this, to get on with the main thing. I will do side chapters, I'm still planning out the special Chapters I will be adding. Also I'm trying to find some co-writers since: Jacky (my original) she's been busy lately and haven't been on Skype, Hopefaith2 she has her own fanfictions to write.

Anyway, I would like to thank Germania from Skype and the Hetalia chat room, and Hopefaith2 for helping me. Thanks for being there for me, I'm sorry for not being on as much, but I'm getting there.

Disclaimer: I don't Hetalia.

Chapter 14

It was Halloween, which meant that the students of World Wide Academy were given the day off to prepare for the festivities that would be taking place later in the night. Unfortunately, Tori was not given the message that they were no classes today because of the holiday. Which mean he woke up early, went to class, and only to find out through the teacher that there were none. Agitated, Tori walked back to his room, mumbling and complaining to himself about finding out so late, and how much sleep he lost. Once Tori was done ranting and complaining, he started to get the feeling that he was followed. He knew he shouldn't run, because that would give him away. So for a while, he continued to walk at his regular pace, not giving any inclination that he knew. As the minutes went by, his feeling became much more stronger. He felt like someone was directly behind him, about to strike him down! Quickly, Tori turned around to see nothing but his own shadow.

"Oh. I guess it was just my imagination. That or the lack of sleep." Tori said jokingly to himself as he turned around...only to find himself face to face with a pirate with a hook as a hand.

"ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH!"
"AHHHHHHH!" Tori screamed as loud as he can, frightened by the mysterious and shocking figure. He falls onto his butt, and slowly tries to move away as the pirate stepped closer to him.

"Where are ye breeches, laddie?"
"W-what?"
"Ye breeches! No one in my crew where those types of cloth. Now where are ye breeches!"
"I-I don't know! Honest!"

"Well then, ye have to walk the plank." The pirate said in a menacingly voice as he raised his hook in front of Tori, making the poor silver eyed boy more scared than he was before. Tori screamed yet again in complete and total fear of the madman! But suddenly, the madman was laughing hysterically on the ground, which confused Tori greatly.

"You should have seen your face love! Pure gold! Bwahahaha!" The madman with all too familiar British accent.
"Arthur? It was you this whole time?!" Arthur just laughed and calmed himself, he gave a gentle smile at the boy,
"Indeed love, 'tis only a Halloween joke, no harm done" Tori gave a pout in reply.
"You scared me though!"

"Ah but that's the spirit of Halloween, giving a good scare or two" Tori laughed and walked down the hall with hims still trying to settle his beating heart. Arthur looked him over for a bit,

"You should see Elizabeta and her sister for a costume...tonight we're having a Halloween party" Tori shook his head.
"I'm not one for parties though...and I don't want to bother anyone about a costume"
"Now come on love. That's no way to think like that. Its going to be fun. Please?" Arthur said pleadingly to Tori. He rolled his eyes.

"Alright. I'll go, but what about a costume?"
"We'll go to a store and pick out something for you to wear."
"I guess we can go and find something." The two walked off and went to the store on the school grounds and talked about the party. Arthur gave a few ideas for the costume that Tori should wear, he wanted the silver eyed boy to have a matching costume so that way he could be Arthur's first mate. Tori shook his head and wanted to do something simple, something like a knight of some sort. Arthur just shook his head and stopped at the door

"Well, ready?"
"I guess" They walked in and to Tori's horror, it was mostly feminine like costumes.

"Arthur! These are all costumes for women!"
"Yes. I know. Your costume is right there." Arthur said as he pointed to the costume titled 'Bar Wench'. Tori looked at the costume, then at Arthur, then the costume, then back at Arthur.

"Are you serious? This is what you had in mind for me?"
"Of course, love. Every pirate needs their bar wench."
"But I thought I was your first mate! First mates don't wear dresses!"
"You are my first mate. For me, my wench is my first mate." Arthur said with a giant smile on his face.

"Forget it. There's no way I'm wearing that." Tori said as he turned around to walk away. Arthur crossed his arms and closed his eyes,

"Torigan Shai," He addressed using his full name in a death like serious tone. Tori froze, he never heard his friend use that kind of a tone with him, he turned and saw Arthur with a 'I'm fucking serious' look and gulped.

"Y-Y-Yes Arthur?" Tori said in a frightened tone as he started to shiver in fear of Arthur's anger.

"I have full authority to give you detention for the rest of the year, banning you from future events if you don't get in that dress."
"B-but you can't do that!" Tori screamed in defiance. Arthur stared deep in his eyes, showing he was serious

"Do you honestly want to try the authority of a Student President?" Not wanting to face his wrath he took the dress off the rack and paid for it going to the changing room to change into the dress, feeling humiliated in the process. Tori walked around the hallways carefully. He didn't want anyone he knew to see him in the embarrassing costume of the tavern wench. It was painful enough to have Arthur threatened him in a dress, but the fact that he had to wear it at the Halloween party. Little did we know, he was being followed by his vampire classmate. He made it to his room and sighed this was going to be a painfully long day, before his hand reached the door he was grabbed from behind being pulled back. Tori let out a cry of surprise and looked up at his captor, seeing Francis bearing his fangs down at him.

"Come on Francis, It's bad enough I got attacked by a pirate, I don't need to be attacked by a vampire" Francis laughed and looked Tori over.
"I must admit you look quite adorable cher. Where did you get such a lovely costume?"
"Arthur...Kind of convinced me to get this" he said blushing.
"Oh hon hon hon. Well he certainly knew what he was doing when he made you wear that Cherie. He is trying to show the world that you are his."
"Francis, don't be ridiculous. He did this to be a cruel prankster."
"If that is the case, then why did he chose that instead of a first mate?" Tori remained quiet. Francis did have a point. Why was it so important that he wore his costume.

"But now I will make my mark of claim on your neck!"
"Francis! Please! Help!" Before Francis could make a move a sharp jab with a violin bow was felt against his back. Francis sighed and turned to face Roderich who looked quite pissed off.

"Honestly Francis, must you try and make a pass at everything that moves? I swear ever since you became vice president you've been abusing that role. Now let him go." Francis sighed and let go of Tori, he walked up to Roderich and looked him over, the Austrian was dressed up like he was ready for a concert. He decided not to question it and left the scene, Tori looked up at Roderich and had a blush crept upon his face, Roderich shook his head and laid a hand on Tori's shoulder.

"I wish the best for you lad"
"Thanks Roderich"
"Anytime Tori. I believe Arthur is looking for you. I would try to find him as fast as possible." Roderich said as he walked away nonchalantly. Tori quickly got himself together, and continued his way toward the party to find Arthur. He believed it was a good idea not to tell Arthur about what happened with Francis. He didn't want another fight to erupt between the two of them.

-Line Break-

Once at the courtyard on the school grounds, Tori froze in place. The lighting was a mix of Tiki torches, and chained lights with pumpkins, there were stands that sold Halloween themed foods, stage where a DJ was playing songs, and there was even a set where people were readying the fireworks. Tori walked into the center looking around for Arthur, he watched as people danced, converse, and so on.

"Ahoy there me wench" Tori jumped and saw Arthur walking towards him. He smiled and gave a small bow,
"Ahoy Captain" He said laughing a bit. Arthur brought him in for a hug and walked to the food stand
"Let's get something to eat then we'll dance"
"Aye Aye Captain." Tori said as he walked to the food stand. As he was getting his punch, he was hugged from behind by the French vampire.

"Bonjour mon lapin. Are you ready to finish where we left off?" Francis said in a seductive tone, frightening and surprising the unsuspecting bar wench. Tori winced and backed away from Francis, punch in hand.

"I'd rather not" he said softly. It didn't stop Francis, he grabbed the boy's wrist and pulled him close making him spill the punch to the ground. He lifted Tori's head and gazed into his eyes.

"Shh, just relax" He said nuzzling his neck, he was interrupted by a small blade by his neck. Tori looked to his savior and saw Arthur with a pissed off look.
"They say to kill a vampire is to stake the heart, or to Decapitate it." Francis growled and set Tori down turning to face the pirate.

"Last I checked they hang your kind Arthur." Giving a snide look to the Englishman as he backed off. Arthur crossed his arms and gave a dark glare. Francis decided to test something, how far would it take to put Arthur on edge?

"Tell me Arthur, why did you put Tori in a bar maid's dress?"
"It was this or other feminine costumes,"
"Is that REALLY the reason you put him in that dress?"
"And what are you trying to imply with that question frog?"
"Well, knowing you, you may have another intention of him in that dress. Maybe that costume is supposed to show what you really think about him."
"And what do I think about him?"
"Maybe he's nothing but your little whore!"

SMACK

Arthur was breathing heavily, Francis was holding his cheek where Arthur had struck. He recoiled his head and chuckled.

"So that's your pushing point" Francis chuckled, stepping back and blowing a kiss at Tori. "Au revoir, cher~" he purred, then left, his cape twirling and smacking into Arthur's arm, who only continued to glare at Francis.

Tori frowned, then went over to Arthur, gently touching his arm. "Just ignore h-"
"... Let's go," the Brit interrupted, grabbing the silver-eyed youth by his waist and walking quickly to the door.
"B-but what about the party?" he asked, worried as to why Arthur was so angry now. Arthur glared at him a bit before his eyes softened.

"Do you really want to go back and have him come after you again?" he asked, frowning still, his tone stern. Shaking his head, Tori chewed on his lip. "I guess not..." he said, then let the older Englishman escort him out. "Where should we go, though?" he asked, looking at the other.

Arthur then grinned, eying him. "We could always go to my room... And continue our little rendezvous." he teased, the wicked look not leaving his look.

Tori flushed, toying with the hem of his costume. "... Wouldn't you get into trouble?"
"It's Halloween. Let loose and have fun, lad." he chuckled, ruffling his hair before heading for the dorms.

CLIFF HANGER!

SSF: There you have it, Read and review.

Notes:

No classes on Halloween: Halloween is a bewitching holiday, I figured because of that reason and the history behind the holiday there wouldn't be any classes, just a party to celebrate.

Vampire!Francis: Okay, I was having a bit of a hard time. I had Arthur as a Pirate, but I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with Francis, I was going to have him as a demon but then went against it. I thought 'Hey wait a minute, Vampires usually mark their victim so no-one else takes their food/mate.' And bam! Turned Francis into a vampire for halloween. I have read fanfictions of him as a vampire and thought it was pretty cool.

Pirate!Arthur: Pretty much canon. I mean England was a pirate, and the age of piratcy was around in England so it was logical to hae him dress up as one for halloween.

Pushing Arthur's Limit: everyone has a breaking point. In this case, Arthur's breaking point is Tori. Any harm to the boy he will freak out. Any insult will result a freak out. Francis used this to his advantage.

Tori/Arthur: Originally I was going to pair Tori with America, but as Time went on via writing with my partners it somehow went to Tori and England, So now we have an official pairing.

Austria with a violin: Now, I decided to make him dress as a composer for halloween. Self explanitory. Enough said.

Bar Wench: Ever seen a Bar maid picture? Their outfit is pretty much plain and simple. So basically Tori is just in a dress. There's really nothing special here

Other feminine Costumes: Most of them if you look in halloween magazeens for costumes or shop, some costumes are pretty 'sexy'. I may like those kinds of costumes but, I just can't really see any of the female Hetalians in that. Seriously I can see FEM!AMERICA in a 'sexy' costume, but someone like Hungary or Liechtenstien? No.

Tori's Full name: Yes, Tori's full name is Torigan Shai.
