Searching for a Home

Chapter 5: "All-New Halloween Spooktacular!"

– Halloween is a magical holiday – said Billy coming down the stairs, in his custom, he had a red cape, with a blue t-shirt, black pants, and a blue exercise band on his head

– All about family, friends, and the thrill of getting to be someone else for a day – Billy explained getting into the kitchen where Tommy and I were

– Wrong! Halloween's about candy. And scaring people, but mostly candy – said Billy, who was dressed casually, plain green t-shirt, with a green franela over it, and some jeans.

– You are both wrong. Halloween's about laughing at people's faces when you scare them or prank them. Make sure to record it – I informed

– where's your costume, tommy? – Billy asked

– This is my costume. I'm the cool twin – Tommy informed him

– What does that make me? – Billy asked

– Hmm... – Tommy thought

– A dorksaurus rex – Tommy finally said

– Not a real dinosaur – I said

– what's your costume, Bells? – Tommy asked, I was wearing all black with a toy gun on the side of my jeans, with my favorite jacket

– I'm an assassin Russian spy, so don't mess with me – I told them, Jo entered through the door, wearing all black like me, without jacket.

– Hello, Maximoff's – she said

– Hi, Josie – The three of us said

– what are you dressed up with? – Billy asked

– I'm a Russian spy – she said

– exactly, we... – I said as I made my way to her and put an arm on her shoulders

– ... are a duo – I finished. we went to the lounge where Uncle Pietro was sleeping on the couch

– Man. He even snores cool. I'm gonna go wake him up – Tommy said

– Don't – Billy said stopping him, I just rolled my eyes and face palmed

– Are you scared? – Tommy asked

– he's, our uncle. Why would I be scared? – Billy answered

– 'Cause it's four o'clock in the afternoon. You're secretly afraid he's a vampire – Tommy explained

– That makes no sense – I told them

– You're scared of your uncle – Jo told Billy

– No, I'm not – Billy said

– Yes, you are – the rest of us said

– No, I'm not – Billy replied. Uncle Pietro got up using his super speed and scared us

– Blood is thicker than water! I show you! – he screamed, Billy and Tommy screamed too, and Uncle Pietro started chasing them around the couch

– Are they being serious? – Jo asked

– they are immatures – I said

– fair point – Jo commented as mom came down the stairs

– Oh! Somebody better be bleeding, broken, or on fire – Mom shout, she already had her custom on, a red leotard, with pink tights, and some red horns crown

– Whoa, Mom. Are you old Red Riding Hood? – Billy asked

– I'm a Sokovian fortune teller – Mom informed
