Halloween

It was that time of year where everyone got to dress up for whatever they felt like. This year I was hoping to be the (text-colour:red)[[devil]], just to rile up my parents. My name is Annabelle and I'm not your average 15 year old that's in High School. I am very smart, and love playing sports. A neat freak, who has a problem with the society. Although there are times when I'm a rebel that gets into trouble. Also the school which I already hate since my parents moved to North Carolina a while ago, and decided to put me to a High school that wasn't known for anything. I haven't really been able to make any friends at the school, except one. She's a quiet and shy girl, but she's super smart and once you get to know her you realise how crazy into games she is. I don't mind that at all, but I don't play any video games don't see the point in that. Her name is Sam, and she just turned 15 couple of weeks ago. She has tried to teach me how to play fortnite, and I failed at it misreably. To me, I don't see what's the point in that game. So this year she decided to be one of those crazy characters for Halloween. Blaze who apparently is a character that fills the world with flames. Yada Yada Yada whatever that means.

I couldn't wait till 7pm when everyone was dressed in their crazy costumes, and going door to door saying "Trick-or-Treat". Then strangers give you candy, some candies are really good, while some are so gross. I only like the good kind, obviously who doesn't? Anyways, Sam and I were going to go at the end of the neighborhood to get candy. That's where all the good stuff is. But, they said to be careful going there since they think the older kids will try and scare the younger ones. Some say that every halloween there's a serial killer that comes out and kills anyone he wants. Just for the fun of it. If this serial killer is real, why are parents letting us go trick or treating? It's dangerous for sure, but I hope we don't bump into each other and he kills us. (text-colour:blue)[[keep going]] or (text-colour:red)[[Get into the serial killers mind]]

I even told Sam we had to be careful tonight, and she just ignored my warning. Well lets hope everything will go right tonight. My parents are making dinner right now, so I decide to call my friend. She picks up on the third ring. "Hey what's up? Why'd you call me so early? We still have like 3 hours left before we go trick or treating." Sam said. "I'm just reminding you that we have to be careful tonight, I don't think my parents know that I will be going to a part of town that is dark. But that's where the rich people are, and they always have the best candy." I try not to show my concern, but my voice sounds desprate and I know she can tell. "We will be careful ok? My little brother is going with my mom and my dad will be home. Plus I'm heading to your house in a little bit ok? I just have to pack up my stuff, and get a ride from my dad. We'll be fine tonight." She sighs and hangs up. I'm just hoping she listens to me, and doesn't do anything reckless. She has a tendancy of doing things that even I don't do. And I am a rebel at times. Just not like this. (text-colour:purple)[[Continue on]] or (text-colour:lime)[[go back ->killer]]

Today will be the year when I will be killing more teenagers. I guess it's not something a person would say. I love watching scary movies, especially the Halloween Kills, the guy is just so aspiring with his face mask and his way of sneaking up on teenagers and adults. The hard part of all this would be to not get caught killig anyone. I will have to be very quiet, and make the kill fast. Here I am thinking about all of this in my living room, plotting ways to kill anyone I want tonight. Of course I already bought the costume that I need for this. I made sure it was the same as the (text-colour:orange)[[killer]] in the Halloween Kills. What a great movie! Now as I prepare to go out tonight for my last time, and make it a big finale. While making sure I'm not caught doing it.

As I prepare my costume and my knife, like the killer used in the movie Halloween Kills I contemplate whether or not I should take anything else. The killer in the movie doesn't take anything else with him, but he always has creative ways of killing his victims. Maybe just maybe I'll go over the movie one more time to make sure that nothing is missed. I go upstairs to my bedroom and turn on the television and search for the movie. The first movie was very good, I loved how he escaped from the prison and how he went to search for the grandmother to kill her. After all, she did put him there. Anyways, back to what I was thinking of doing tonight. I know to make it creepy for them dumb kids is to stalk them. Have a way of sending them scary pitures, like they have in those movies. Pathetic really, but what are you going to do. I like the game, and the feel of making those dumb girls scared, even the young guys too. As I watch the movie, another idea pops in my head. Maybe I could also slit someone's throat just for the fun of it. [[Keep going]] (text-colour:magenta)[[go back ->Continue on]]

My parents finally call me to help set the table for dinner. A part of me is excited that my only friend from High School is coming over soon, and that we'll be going together on this crazy cold Halloween night. It's still early now, and close to 5. Didn't think time flew by this fast, it was just 4pm. "Mom, Sam is coming in a little bit could we set a plate for her? She said she was coming soon." I turn to look at my mother. She was young, with blonde wavy hair up to her shoulders, and her eyes were dark emerald green. I looked nothing like her except for the eyes, I think I got my dark hair from my dad. Although his is even darker than mine. "That's fine, we have plenty of food. I'm glad you're making friends at school, I knowing moving away from Virginia wasn't easy for you. But, I am glad that you're at least trying. Your father didn't know his company would move him across states. But, I know this will be our permanent home." She smiled at me and went to the kitchen to grab some napkins and plates. I felt bad for being a rebel sometimes, it was always hard on my mom and my dad. They are both busy people. (text-colour:lime)[[Ring the doorbell]]

As the movie comes to an end, I finally know my plan. To make sure I blend in tonight, and I might decide to go to that far naighborhood where the rich people live. There's not that many people that come during the late hours, and it would be a perfect way to make my kill. I finally get ready, it was almost 6pm, I'll make sure to leave after 7 or so. Finally getting dressed in one jumpsuit that's a little big, with a belt. and the mask finally comes on. The shoes a sort of boots and I'll be wearing gloves as well. This time instead I'll bring a butcher knife, a bat, and a big long metal spike, a medical machete. I might have to bring it in my old truck, and park it somewhere that is not seen. This will be the(text-colour:red)[[bloodiest]] halloween yet. I will enjoy it every minute of it, make no mistake. I love a good chase and screams of my victims as I cut them and kill them.

"That must be Sam, I'll get that." I went to open the door, and there she was standing with her bag of costume and her phone in her hand. "I didn't think you would be here so early Sam. We're about to finish setting the table. But, I think the food is ready though." I come and gave her big hug her, and tugged her gently inside. "Well whatever your parents cook, I always love. You know I do." She says, and laughs a little. Her laugh is contagious. It was one of the reasons why I loved her so much. "Let's go and eat then, otherwise we won't have enough time to get ready. We need at least an hour, if we want to leave at 7pm." I say, as I lead her to the dining room. The table is already set, and the food smells delicous. I wonder what my mom cooked. "This smells delicous Mrs.Rowen." Sam says, almost as if reading my thoughts. But there was no such thing as telepathy. It only existed in books and movies. Now my mother uncovered the food, and I saw that it was one of my favorite pastas. A ravioli with the meatsauce, speenach and cheese. It smelled so delicious, you wouldn't say no to this. (text-colour:yellow)[[Eat the Ravioli]] [[go back->Keep going]]

"This is really great mom, the ravioli tastes amazing. I see you have the italian sausage too. This is honestly a perfect meal for halloween, or for any day for that matter. Are you guys just going to stay home and answer the door the kids?" I ask, as I take a bite of the sausage. It's so tender, but at the end it has that small spice. Very delicious. "Yes, what else is there to do for us? We'll clean up, while you go and get ready for (text-colour:yellow)[[trick-or-treating]]. I think it's a little after 6 now, you guys should head up and get ready." She smiles, as she finishes the last of her ravioli. Sam and I get up and head to my room, to get ready in our costumes. My parents will probably not like my devil costume, but oh well. I think it's fire. See what I did there? HA HA "You think anyone will figure out my costume Annabelle? I know it's too geeky and anyone who plays fortnite will figure it out. Unless they don't, then they'll be confused like you were when I first showed you who Blaze was. You're face was so puzzled, I couldn't help but laugh. Anyways put your sexy devil costume on." "It's not a sexy devil costume, I made sure that everything was appropriate to wear in front of kids. You know I'm not like that." I say to her, as I tug the dark wings behind me, and set the big red horns on my head. I also bought a tail, somehow I was able to find one. It was a pretty cool outfit. With my high heeled boots, I did look like a badass. As I turn to look over my friend she looks awesome, the costume doesn't do her justice. Every gamer would guess her costume correctly, unlike me. We start doing our make, I make sure I just keep it simple and not put too much. I hate cakey make up look, it makes your skin look all patchy and everything. She decides to paint her skin purple, and wear these badass pants and a red metalic shirt. She even has these big goggles on top of her head. Very interesting. She also decided to put on purple contancts. I hope they're not too uncomfortable. I look at the clock one more time, and I see that it's 7:15pm. We were already running late as it was. "We have to go now Sam. Come on!" I say, as I see her do her final touches. We finally leave our room, and grab our trick-or-treat bags. "Bye mom, wer're leaving now." I say as we finally make our way outside and into the night. I didn't bother to stop and let her see my costume. She'll probably see it later. (text-colour:red)[[killers mind->bloodiest]]

AS I look at the clock, I now see that it's a little past 7. It will be almost time for me to leave. I should leave a little before everyone starts going out. Especially the children. I don't want them to see me out and about and asking their questions. I don't really want to be killing the youngsters. It's not in my plan for today. Today will definitely be the day, the police doesn't come to this neighborhood. If at all. I'm surprised they haven't caught me, after all these years of doing this. I decide to go through the back, and I lock the house. I live anywhere near anyone. Not for a couple of miles, but then again peole do go into these woods at times. Lets just hope they don't at this time. I get into my truck and head out to the rich people's neighborhood. I'm hoping I can find a parking where my car isn't going to be questioned as to why it was there. Hopefully everyone will ignore it. [[Continue driving]]

We decide to walk down our neighborhood and do a few of the trick-or-treating, just enough to have some candy. I'm already eager enough to get a good bunch. I'm sure Sam is too, she always like the Kit-Kats. Like I do, and she loves those lolipops. I don't see the point in them, they're too small and they're not so tasty anymore. "Come on Annabelle, stop being a wuss. We got enough candy now, we can start going to the darker side of town. Tothe rich folk we go." She grabs my hand, and basically forces me to run after her. She's a fast runner, did I forgot to mention. Too fast for me to catch up to her. She is of course on the track team, and she is the top runner in our school. "Hold....on...." I say out of breath, but I see that she has already stopped at the first rich house. As we go closer to this particular house and say Trick-or-Treat I notice something. The hairs at the back of my neck stand up. It's a feeling you get when someone is either watching you, or when something isn't right in that moment. I turn slightly to the right, keeping my head straight ahead and on my peripheral vision I see a man. He's wearing the costume from Halloween movie. And he is just standing there watching us closly. It makes my skin crawl, knowing this was a bad idea coming to this neighborhood. [[Knock on the door again]]

As I come to the last huge house, I decide to park where it's dark. I want to make sure that kids or anyone else isn't going to be here watching me take out my weapon of choice. I really wanted to succeed for another Halloween. A little beyond the street I see kids, and teenagers coming with their bags full of candy and knocking door to door, basically asking them for candy. It's honestly a waiste of time, for me that is. But it is every year that I get to kill those annoying son of a guns and I enjoy it too. Not too far from where I'm parked I see my perfect opportunity to start my hunt. There are two girls wearing ridiculous costums. But yet something makes me pause. One of the girl with the dark hair is wearing a devil costumes, and she looks too beautiful in my opinion. Almsot as if she could be a devil in disguise. The other one wears a costume from Fortnite I believe. Blaze. Interesting.... [[Start following the girls]] or (text-colour:orange)[[go back->trick-or-treating]]

I'm keeping a close eye on them, but I have realised my mistake. The girl whose the devil has realised I've been watching them. I have to blend in better this time. I continue to move and follow them, hoping this time she won't notice me. I'm hoping I can catch them at a good time and kidnap them. But that girl is too intuitive. As I continue to follow them, I see that more and more people start to come to this neighorhood. For whatever reason they want to come at a late hour, this backs up my plans of getting my sweet sweet kills. I guess I will have to wait for a little bit more, and blend into the darkness so I can follow those two girls.

The guy has now moved a little closer to us, at this point I feel that Sam and I would die. Or worse get killed by him. I could see that he was carrying something with him. As I was about to say something to Sam, the door to the house opens and an old lady comes out with a bowl of delicous candy. "Trick-or-Treat!" We both say, as we bring our bags to her. "Aren't you ladies too old for this kind of thing? Oh well, here are some candy for you two. But be careful, everynight on Halloween people either go missing or end up dead." With that she went back inside. I looked at Sam and she had that same expression as me. A look of complete shock. "She's probably looking out for us, and other people that come by. Lets go to the next house, shall we?" I tug her to me so she comes closer and say "Ah Sam, I think someone is following us. Do you see the guy by the tree that's dressed as Michael from the Halloween movie? We better hurry, I have a bad feeling about this."
