Pumpkin

"Serene better enjoy these after all my hard work." Vivi shoved the jack-o-lantern beside the pile of finished ones. "Where is she, anyways?"

"Here, Mommy!"

Vivi looked up. Two bright, orange eyes peered out of the holes of the highest jack-o-lantern atop the pile.

"Serene! Get out of there before—"

Too late.

The jack-o-lantern tilted, then tumbled down the hill of pumpkins with the occupant inside squealing at every bump. The lantern rolled to the bottom, and out popped a baby witch, landing at the feet of a shocked and furious mommy witch.

Serene rubbed her head. "Happy Halloween..."


Happy Halloween!

In the middle of September...
