It was a week away from Halloween. Chelsea hummed 'This Is Halloween' as she got ready for school with her siblings. Leo had introduced the 4 bionic teens to 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' last Christmas.

"We get it," Bree said. "It's almost Halloween. You don't have to sing about it."

"I'm not singing," Chelsea said. "I'm humming." She slung her bag over her shoulder and made her way to the elevator.

The group of 5 walked into the school. They were soon stopped by Principal Perry. The teens groaned.

"Hey robots," Perry said. "Instead of having a regular dance, this year we're doing something different."

"Like what?" Adam asked.

"I'm glad you asked," Perry said. "You 5 are going to be in charge of turning the school into a haunted house for Halloween night, and you're going to be working in it."

"Why us?" Bree asked.

"Because." With that, Perry walked away.

Leo walked into the lab holding a costume that Tasha just finished making for him. "My mom just finished my zombie costume," he said. "Now all I need to do for Halloween is to figure out the zombie makeup."

"So what costumes are we all going to wear?" Bree asked, looking at Adam, Chase, and Chelsea.

"Well, we could do costumes that go with our bionics," Chelsea suggested.

"Yeah," Adam said. "Since we're working the haunted school, we could use them and it'd look like special effects."

"That could work," Chase said. "But what would we each be?"

"Oh! I can be a ghost," Chelsea said. "With my intangibility app, I can walk through things and I become see-through. And with my invisibility app, I can randomly appear and disappear."

"Oh with my speed I can be a vampire!" Bree said.

"I could be a wizard," Chase said.

"I could be a..." Adam trailed off as he thought. "A werewolf!"

"I still can't believe Principal Perry's making us do this," Bree said. She and Leo were hanging up fake cobwebs in the main hall.

"Yeah," Leo said. "Even though she knows your guy's secret, she still hates us."

Adam walked in holding a stack of mirrors. Chelsea and Chase came in behind him both holding boxes of decorations. "Careful with the mirrors, Adam," Chelsea said as Adam set down the mirrors on the circular bench.

"Okay, everyone else is gone," Chase said.

"Got it," Bree said. She used her super speed to put up the decisions within seconds.
