" Lucy have you seen my shoes..? Yelled David from the bedroom later that day
" Try under the bed Hun their is so much stuff under their wouldn't surprise me if their stuffed under their " Yelled Lucy with a laugh as David was on all fours looking for his shoes not seeing Lucy coming in to the room and smack his butt
" Hey " he said with a laugh turning round smiling
" Trick or treat it's gonna be Halloween soon so so thought I'd get my treat early ". Lucy said kissing David
" Mmm I know babes but I'm working that night sure the park has its Halloween fright night it will be good and means Anikin can stay up late and see the fireworks and isn't your mom not gonna be their I remember her saying something " David said
" Yeah but I don't like the idea of Anikin being up late he'll be cranky next day but as it's only once a year then maybe it will be fine and I told mom if he falls asleep take him home he never gets a proper sleep in that stroller also I need to get him a costume too so might go into town later tomorrow and get him something before all the good costumes are taken "Lucy said
" True don't want him being Darth Vader well not yet " David said
" I don't want him to be anyone from Star Wars what's wrong with the old traditional ghost or a kinda cute kinda scary Halloween costume not everything should be Star Wars you know and I'll need to get some new decorations too my mom gave me a huge pile that are years and years old don't know where they came from I'll,look at them later oh and I need to get a pumpkin too before they sell out a plastic blow up one is not the same as a real one " Lucy said making David sigh as he sat on the bed watching Katie who left the room
I remember my relitivs saying one time many years ago they banned Halloween in a nearby town oh that was back in the 70s and 80s dunno why they just did I never thought to ask just took it as some religious nuts saying it's satanic or that " David said now coming into the kitchen
" Banning Halloween that's a bit crazy don't recall that I always celebrated Halloween as a kid used to have big parties stay up late if it fell on a weekend yet I do remember someone their was a carryone with a factory that made kids masks a few kids died and in the end the factory blew up that was in late 70s early 80s before I was born but that was all " Lucy said
" Yeah I heard that too Silver Shamrock Oh and also dunno if it's real or not the story some nutter who was a kid killed his entire family stabbed his older sister parents and baby sister they said he was possessed or something " David said
' Nope never heard of that maybe he was on drugs or something ' Lucy said as David sighed but said no more
Lucy"s new mom had known a bit about the Myers killings about Laurie also Michael and Judith also Jamie and John and Steven but she vowed never to tell Lucy in order to protect her but they all hoped that Michael would be dead so Lucy grew up knowing nothing about the Michael Myers case but everyone else had heard of it but no one really spoke about it and Michael haven't been seen in years so they hoped he had died
" Okay let's see what we have on here a lot of this stuff is really old and can go out and decorations are cheap now so we can buy new ones and no your not getting Star Wars themed ones " Said Lucy with a laugh carring a large box into the lounge and putting it on the floor
" God your not kidding some of these things looks if their a hundred crying out loud ' Said David pulling at orange and black paper chains making Lucy laugh as they looked through the box
" Oh who's that with the dorky haircut..? Asked David suddenly pulling out a photo of a small boy with dirty blond hair that looked like a wavy bowl cut and he was wearing a silky looking multi coloured clown suit ( It was of a young Michael Myers )
" I dunno cute kid though Iv never seen him before maybe he's a relative I'll ask mom about him later " Lucy said placing the photo on the table whist looking in the box again
" Okay Anikin buckle up we have a busy day today not all fun and games " Lucy said to her young son the next day as they planned to go out
It was Lucy's day off and David was working that day so Lucy desided to head into town to get some shopping done and get some Halloween things before they sold out
" Hi Hun how are you said a voice giving Lucy a scare and making her jump
"Oh Mrs Cook you gave me a scare I didn't see you come over " Lucy said placing a hand on her chest
" Well its Halloween Hun we're all entitled to one good scare don't you think ...? The woman asked as Lucy nodded
" Yeah maybe but not quite Halloween yet not for a few days " Lucy said
" True I guess so anyway not working today dear and aww the little one is getting so big oh I keep forgetting his name " The woman said
" It's Anikin as in Anikin Skywalker in Star Wars please don't ask that was Davids doing how he got that name but no its my day off so just going to the store so are you coming to the Halloween party at Disney world then bring your grand kids they'd love it " Said Lucy
"Oh I'd love too but i won't see them this year their going on vacation but maybe next year so are you working their ..? Asked the woman
" On Halloween yeah no doubt I don't mind it will be fun and mom will have Anikin she's bringing him to the park so this will be his first proper Halloween as last year he was too young to know he slept most of the time so he stayed at home " Lucy said smiling at her young son who giggled and waved
" Aww he's so adorable shame they don't stay that size for ever I remember my first son at that age now he's nearly 34 and has kids of his own " The woman said sighing a little so do you and David plan for any more kids when Anikin older give him a brother or sister it's nice to have siblings " The woman said
" Yeah it is maybe in a few years when he starts school still early days yet he's only 2 so plenty of time " Lucy said
Lucy and the woman chatted for a few more minutes before Lucy walked on Lucy liked the woman but thought she could be nosy at times or maybe she was just lonely as her own kids had moved away and last time she seen them was at Easter and that was just her 2 sons as she had a falling out with her daughter and hadent spoken to her in years so Lucy kinda felt sorry for her
As Lucy walked to the store she noticed that man she'd seen at the park again and he seemed to be watching her so feeling brace she desided to challenge him
" Excuse me what's your problem are you some kind of a pervert stalking me " She yelled
" No of course not but I have to talk to you it's important " The man said
" Like he'll it is who are you why are you following me all the time what do you want " Yelled Lucy
" Please my name is Sam Loomis is their anywhere we can go privet " The man said showing Lucy some ID
" I don't care if your Santa Claus leave me alone your scaring my son " Lucy yelled grabbing the stroller tightly
" Look miss Shaw this is very important we have to talk it's for your safety and family's safety " Loomis said shocking Lucy
" How how do you know my name ..? Said Lucy stunned
" Long story and please trust me we have to talk and I'm a doctor turned detective and you have to listen to me as you and your family are in danger " Loomis said
Lucy was stunned but if it wasent for the man's ID she thought he was lying but the ID matched to what he said so she thought she'd give him a chance
" Okay i will give you half an hour we can go for a coffee " Lucy said as Loomis nodded and the pair headed into a coffee shop to grab some coffee and see what Loomis had to say as Lucy still thought he was crazy
