Homicide and Havoc on Halloween
You decide not to bother Scarlett, since she was upset, and she probably needs time to cool off. You realize you have tons of homework and you have only one hour to complete it! You rush upstairs, quickly grabbing your binder and textbooks, and plop down in your office, when Octavia pops her head in the door. "Paige?" she whines, "Can we go trick-or-treating now? Mommy just left." The last thing you need is another distraction from doing your homework. "No," you say, firmly, "It's too early to go right now. I will go with you in one hour. That's final." She dramatically hangs her head down in sorrow and you can hear her forlorn, "Aw, " as she turns around to leave. Finally, peace and quiet. You pick up your pencil and begin your homework.
After working hard for forty-five minutes straight, you complete your homework and realize that you don't have a costume. This is a problem because you don't have enough time to finish and all your old costumes are too small. Maybe going with Scarlett would have been easier because she would have gotten you a costume. You decide to go in your regular clothes, so it will be less embarrassing. You get Octavia from her room and find discover something horrifying: she was sitting on the floor in a Rainbow Dash costume from My Little Pony. "What are you wearing?" you scream with disgust. Octavia just starts laughing. "I'm a My Little Pony!" she exclaims, "And you have to walk with me the entire night." She begins to tease you, but you decide to talk over her remarks. "Well, if you want to go at all, then get your shoes on and come downstairs." Octavia sighs from a long laugh, "Okay, Okay, I'm coming." The both of you head downstairs and leave the house. You make sure to lock the door, and as you turn around, your gaze is immediately filled with purple, orange, and white lights coming from everywhere, kids will all sorts of costumes trick-or-treating, and the intricate decorations placed in and around houses. Something catches your eye. It's Scarlett, walking alone, in a violet and black witch costume. She seems kind of down.
