A week passed and the whole world was still existing, so was the entire universe. Nothing happened. Jinx. Knock on wood.
Achernar and his demonic father with their evil army forces weren't doing anything yet. The stars waited and waited, training and not letting their guard down. They were all on high alert for what was to come. And so a few more days passed and it was the day before Hallow's Eve, Halloween, the 30th of October. "Aljanah wake up! It's Halloween!" Naos poured candy all over Aljanah. "I said wake me up when it's the 31st!" The seventh deadly sin of wrath melted the candies. "No! My sweets!" The seventh deadly sin of gluttony was about to cry. "For that lame trick no treat! Nice try." Aljanah got up though and had a soft spot for Naos. "Scheat c'mere." She threw a melting wrapped candy at the seventh deadly sin of sloth knowing he'll catch it. "Got it." He froze the candy which managed to save them as if they weren't burned. Aljanah's hands lit on fire to warm them up. Naos was hugging them both with happiness.
"This could not get any worse!" Esther rushed inside as she and Orion came back from their weekly grocery shopping. "What happened?" Rigel and Cassiopeia rushed over to them. Esther had her hands covering herself, the sun's face, as she ran past the archangels and seven deadly sins upstairs into her bathroom, slamming the door loudly behind her. Everyone was confused and threw their hands up in the air in dumbfoundment. "She'll be fine. Esther's just being Esther. There's literally nothing wrong with her face but she freaked out on me." Orion explained.
"Dude but what happened though?" Spica asked. The seventh deadly sin of greed along with gluttony wanted to go up the stairs to check on her to see what was the matter. "Well first, it was like any other normal day until we got ambushed. Achernar sent his evil forces to attack us. It was fine. Not a big deal since they were no match for my girl. I barely had to do anything, just enjoyed the show." Tiaki fist bumped the fallen star. "Nice, my guy. Esther is a badass like one of us now. She's fierce! Aljanah has some competition." The seventh deadly sin of pride handed Dschubba smarties. Aljanah was already yawning even though it was 4 in the afternoon and she'd just woken up. She popped a butterscotch dum dum lollipop into her mouth. "No disagreement in that. She was always hotter than me."
"You two are caliente mamis." Spica ate a tootsie roll. The seventh deadly sin of envy was sharing smarties with her pride. "We're all going to dress up for Halloween. We are never too old for trick or treating." Vega, the seventh deadly sin of lust, was dressed as a succubus.
"Ooh! Yes!" Naos jumped up and down excitedly. "Aljanah! You have to actually wear a costume and not just your shirt that says: This is my costume." Aljanah sighed. "Do I have to?"
"YES." All of the seven deadly sins said in synchrony like a cult. "Fine." She rolled her eyes and looked bored, ready to go back to sleep again. "Don't roll your eyes missy! They'll fall out or get stuck in the back of your head." Tiaki threw a smartie at her which she caught and ate. "Whatever grandpa." He was throwing more smarties at Aljanah and she was catching them all with ease. "You're one to talk, granny. That should be your Halloween costume! It's perfect!" Tiaki was laughing and slapped his thigh. "You two are like an old married couple. Might as well dress like one to play the part." Scheat said. "Oh yeah? We shall then! We'll be the hottest oldies. We're goldies!" Tiaki, the eldest, flung his whole packet of smarties at the youngest who caught it with one hand without even looking.
