Hello everyone, sorry for being late and lacking this, but due to some problems at work, my medical stuff, and many other things causing a lot of stress, I almost didn't get this to you in time... I mean, I cut it in half, but it's here, so enjoy. And for anyone wondering why it's not scary, it's because I have some horror planned out for later in the canon story. Also, I'll post part two next Halloween.

"Okay. Now, be careful; we have no idea what this dust will do." Ashley said as she slowly led Nora and Yang down a hallway as teams J(N)PR, RWB(Y), and (A)SHH followed them. "We just need to get this to Professor Peach, and we are done for the day.

"Why are we doing this again?" Blue asked as Ashley looked down at him.

"You want the long answer or the short one?" Ashley asked him.

"Long."

"Okay, here's how it went. The SDC had gotten some new dust mixture, so Professor Peach asked Wiess for a bit of a favor to get some. Once she did, she asked me to do a favor since I owed her one. After that, I asked Nora and Yang to help since they both owe me one, and the rest of you are here because you need to either keep an eye on us or want to see us mess up and laugh."

"Hey! We wouldn't do that." Jaune said, making Ashley pause.

"Oh yeah... your right. So we drop it off, and all our favors will be repaid, and we can go costume shopping." Ashley said to everyone.

"WATCH OUT!" Everyone heard the warning, but it was too late. A burn dust crystal was glowing brightly as it landed on the case. Before anyone could react, the dust blew up, causing a chain reaction. Just as the smoke covered the area, Professor Peach ran to it, worried someone was hurt. "Are you all... okay? What the?"

One hour later. When Blake woke up in the nurse's office, she didn't expect to see Professor Peach making a phone call while panicking as she paced back and forth.

"Yes... only team ASHH had been affected by the dust... Rwby and Jnpr are fine, just unconscious for the time being. They should wake up soon." Professor Peach said as Blake slowly sat up, letting the Professor know she was awake. "I'll call you back. One of the students is awake."

"What happened?" Blake asked as Peach turned her scroll off while setting it aside.

"Miss Belladona... you and several others were caught in a Dust explosion. Don't worry, everyone is okay, but the Dust interestingly affected team ASHH..."

"Wait, what do you mean by that?" Blake asked as she noticed a Blue eye peek out from behind a curtain, making Blake confused as she saw that the person had Brown hair and was very short—almost the size of a child.

"Well... there is no good way to say this, but..." Professor Peach said before following Blake's gaze. "Ah, looks like Miss Rosewood is up."

"Professor, I don't think that's Ashley," Blake said as she slowly got up and went over to the kid; she slowly backed up.

"That's what I thought too. I thought Miss Scarlatina was caught in it, but I ran some tests on her, and sure enough, it's her." Professor Peach said as she followed behind her. As Blake opened the curtain, she noticed Ashley doing her best to hide behind a blanket hanging off the bed.

"Hey, it's okay; you don't have to be afraid of me," Blake said as she got on her knee, and Ashley slowly peeked out from behind the blanket. Ashley didn't say anything as she stared at Blake. With a soft smile, Blake held her hand out for Ashley as she slowly walked out from behind the blanket, and she carefully took her hand. "See, you have nothing to be afraid of. Now, what's the last thing you remember?"

"I...I was with my moms, and they were taking me trick or treating, but I fell on the ground before waking up here. Where am I?" Ashley asked, sounding worried as she looked up at Blake.

"It's okay... they took you to Beacon Academy too... try and keep you safe. Some bad men tried to fight them, so they dropped you off here." Blake said as she tried to lie to Ashley, hoping she would trust her.

"Oh. Are they okay?" Ashley said, now worried about her parents.

"Yes, they will be fine. Do you think two huntresses can be beaten so easily?" Blake asked as Ashley turned to her, confused.

"What's a huntress? My moms are fighters." Ashley said, making Blake stare at her, now confused as well.

"Never mind that. Do you mind staying here till my friends wake up?" Blake asked her as she nodded.

A few hours later. The rest of the team, Rwby, and Jnpr, slowly got up. They are surprised that Ashley, Blue, and Zef are now kids again. Ashley tried to hide from them, but Blake made Ashley slowly warm up to them, while whenever Zef was around Blake, he would blush heavily before turning away, hoping to hide it from her. As for Blue, he seems to be the friendliest one there since he smiled and tried to get the others to play with him. Luckily, Ruby could understand him because Blue had been teaching her how to speak his language.

"So... what do we do?" Jaune asked as he held Ashley's hand as they left the Nurse's office.

"Well, I don't know. Professor Peach told us to keep an eye on them, so we just stayed in our dorms and watched some PG movies." Yang said with a smile.

"Oh, can we watch Lazer Team?" Ashley asked as she tried to get their attention.

"Hmm, I don't think I've heard of it before. What about The Mask instead?" Phrrya asked as they walked.

"Okay."

{Ummm, I don't think I heard of that movie, } Zef said in his native tongue as Nora carried him; she gave him a piggyback ride, much to his annoyance. Luckily for him, the group had some earbuds made by Ashley that could translate everything. Unfortunately, there were only three, and since Ren, Nora, and Blake could translate for him, they decided to give it to the kids.

{What's with all the decorations?} Blue asked as Ruby gave him a piggyback ride as well.

{Oh... I forgot it's Halloween.} Ruby said with a smile as she turned to Blue.

"What did he say?" Weiss asked, a little annoyed since she couldn't understand them.

"Oh, he asked what all the decorations were about, and I told him that it's Halloween," Ruby said with a smile as Ashley perked up.

"Wait, it's Halloween? Can we trick or treat? Please?" Ashley asked as she looked up at them, giving them puppy eyes. Everyone tried their best to say no but unfortunately couldn't.

A few minutes later, just outside Team CFVY's room. Jaune knocked on the door, hoping Coco could help them; before long, Velvet opened it

"Oh, Jaune, what are you doing here? I thought we would be going to Team Rwby's room later." Velvet asked as Ashley hid behind Jaune, only to stop and notice that Velvet looked like her. Velvet looks down once she sees the two Rabbit ears poking out from behind him. "Jaune? Who is that behind you?"

"Hey Velvet... it's a long story. Do you mind if we come in? And is Coco with you? We need her help." Jaune said as Velvet let them in. As they went in, Jaune explained the situation to her while Ruby talked to Coco. All the while, Ashley was staring at Velvet while confused.

{Is something wrong?} Zef asked as he approached her, making her jump and hide behind a bed.

"S...sorry," Ashley said as she slowly emerged from behind the bed. "N...no, nothing wrong."

{Well, why are you staring at your sister?} Zef asked, making Ashley sigh as she turned to look back at her.

"What? I don't have a sister."

{You don't? But you two look almost the same... It's just your eyes.} Zef said as he turned to Ashley and then to Velvet.

"I know... but I never had a sister... My mom said she found me after some lady dropped me off at her doorstep." Ashley said while groaning.

{Oh, I'm sorry. Do you think she's your long-lost sister?} Zef asked rather quickly, not realizing Velvet was listening to their conversation.

"I don't know."

Before either could say anything else, Coco kneeled to them, making Ashley jump and hide behind Zef.

"Hey, don't worry, I won't hurt you. I want to see if you want to dress up for Halloween like him." Coco said with a smile as she pointed to Blue; he was now dressed up as Dawn from Pokemon. And he seems to be loving it.

{Why is he in a skirt?} Zef asked as he stared at Blue.

"What he asked to dress up as her," Coco said with a smile. "Boys can wear a skirt. Did you want to try it?"

{No... I don't want to do this, so can it be something quick?} Zef asked while pouting.

"Wow. Where's your Halloween spirit?" Coco asked as she took him to the side. As she did, Ashley stood alone and looked around nervously, not noticing Velvet slowly walk up to her before sitting on the ground.

"Hey, are you doing okay?" Velvet asked Ashley, making her turn around to look at her.

"Ummm, yes." Ashley stared at her, unsure what to do while hoping something could help her. Velvet smiled softly as she gently took her hand.

"I have an idea for your costume if you want to sit down, and I could paint your face."

"Can I be Bonnie? I want to be a rockstar Rabbit." Ashley asked with a smile as she sat down on the ground

"Sure," Velvet said with a smile as she got to work slowly, and after a few hours, Zef was now looking like a wolf faune with a tail and ears along with fangs, and Ashley looked like a humanized version of Bonnie from Fanf. She had a purple dress with a white apron on, some dyed hair to match her old (New? I don't know.) purple hair, And some drawn-on spring locks on her face.
