It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a . . . HALLOWEEN SPECIAL?! (PART 1)

Made 10/16-23/2022

PART 1
(yes, there will be more parts)

Halloween Pickup Line of The Day: I volunteer as your victim tonight since you're clearly dressed to kill.

Halloween Random Fact of The Day: The name jack-o'-lantern is rooted in an Irish folktale about a man named Stingy Jack who fooled the devil and in turn was forced to walk the Earth with only a burning coal in a hollowed turnip (yes, they used to carve turnips) to light his way. The Irish began to call him "Jack of the Lantern," and then just "Jack o'Lantern."

꧁--------❁--------꧂

Though it's already been another year, you felt like it's only been a chapter in your life. Halloween was nearing once more and the cold weather was catching up faster than last year; all the guards walked by with scarfs (except the irritable Hajime) and the concrete walls were freezing every time you chose to lay against them.

Which is exactly why this was the perfect day to escape.

The only thing none of you anticipated was the rapid change in floor panels the moment all of you stepped out of the cell. In a moment's notice, a hole formed and forced everyone to fall to the floor below, including the pumpkin Rock was sculpting.

Now you're all completely lost. In the dark.

"PENELOPE! NO! HOW COULD I LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU??" Rock mourned next to Penelope, his pumpkin, who was smashed upon impact with the ground.

"AAAAAAAAH!"

"IT'S MY HAND!" You accidentally hit Nico's back, trying to find your way through the darkness with everyone else.

"This stress isn't doing any good for my pores. We need to get out of here." Uno calmed himself down, prioritizing his wrinkle-free face instead.

"I don't want to alarm anyone, but I just stepped in something wet and I don't know what it is." There was a splashing sound as Rock placed his foot inside some kind of liquid.

"IS IT BLOOD? ARE WE WALKING ON CORPSES?!" Uno jumped to conclusions, stopping in his tracks to feel the floor.

"Of course we're not on top of corpses. I think." You tried to reassure him but it's not like you could check.

"Don't worry, Uno-kun. I'm sure they wouldn't mind if you walked on top of them." Nico danced around in front of the group, not too bothered about the idea. "Unless they're zombies and still alive, like in this manga I'm reading. There's a virus that spreads in humid, dark places - like this one - and takes over its victims by making them eat—"

"Okay, that's enough of that." You cut Nico off, not wanting him to terrify Uno more than he already was. "Tell us where to go, leader. You're the one with the magic hunches."

"Why can't I be the leader?" Jyugo whispered to you, his hand finding its way to yours. He didn't want to be separated from you in the dark.

"You're not lucky." You whispered back to him, intertwining your fingers with his. "At all."

"I got lucky to have you."

"You're going to make me barf."

He grinned, facing forward to watch the darkness with you.

"Are you sure they'll be okay?" Seitarou watched the cameras nervously, turning to Hajime.

"I don't care. This'll teach them to stop breaking out." He leaned back in the office chair, eyes closed with his hands behind his head. "I should've done worse."
