" I need you to unleash you inner demon! Whoever you see, excluding the girls, me, and the boys, you need to kick their shins, punch them in the face, and throw them of walls. It's gonna be amazing!" Mia let out a maniac laugh, and Morro laughed nervously.

" Yeah, that's totally do-able!" He said, weakly pumping his fist in the air.

Mia grinned. " Now, I need to go to that juice place. Their juice is actually really good."

Morro froze. " Oh, boy." He muttered.

Morro watched as Mia skipped out of the room, humming to herself and seemingly oblivious to the gravity of her plan. He sighed deeply and looked around at the scattered party decorations and the remnants of the chaotic wedding. His thoughts were interrupted by Mia's enthusiastic voice calling from the hallway.

"Morro, are you coming?"

Morro turned, his face a mix of concern and resignation. "Yeah, I'm coming. But Mia, you know that juice you're talking about... it's actually blood, right?"

Mia paused mid-stride, her brow furrowing in confusion. She turned to face Morro, her expression one of genuine surprise. "What? No way! It's either tomato juice or strawberry juice. Or maybe watermelon. They have a lot of options."

Morro shook his head slowly. "No, Mia. It's blood. The juice shop is known for its... unconventional selections."

Mia's eyes widened as realization dawned on her. "Ohhhh, right! Well, that makes sense. They do have a rather... unique vibe."

Before Morro could say anything more, Mia's face brightened with a new idea. "I also need to get you a vampire costume! I'm going to be a witch, and I'm gonna zap everyone! It's gonna be so much fun!"

Morro's expression shifted to one of pure bewilderment. "A vampire costume? Really? I thought we were just... I don't know, blending in."

Mia waved her hand dismissively. "Oh, come on, Morro. Where's your sense of adventure? This is going to be the most epic party ever!"

Morro groaned inwardly but knew there was no stopping Mia once she got an idea in her head. He took a deep breath and followed her out the door, trying to prepare himself mentally for whatever awaited them at the juice shop.

As they arrived at the shop, the atmosphere was as eerie as Morro had expected. The sign outside read "Blood & Juice Emporium," and the interior was dimly lit with gothic decor. A large selection of bottles, each labeled with ominous names, lined the shelves.

Mia approached the counter with an air of confidence. "Hi there! I need the usual, plus a vampire costume."

The shopkeeper, a gaunt figure with a sinister grin, nodded and handed her a bottle labeled "Crimson Delight." "And for the costume?"

Mia glanced around and then spotted a rack of costumes in the corner. "Oh, right. I'll take one of those too!"

She picked out a costume complete with a long, flowing cape and pointed fangs. Morro reluctantly put it in the cart, his apprehension growing with each passing moment.

As they left the shop, Mia's excitement was palpable. "This is going to be amazing, Morro! Just imagine everyone's reactions!"

Morro sighed and tried to look on the bright side. "Well, as long as we don't cause too much chaos..."

Mia cut him off with a laugh. "Chaos is the fun part! Now, let's go get ready."

Morro followed her back to the party venue, bracing himself for the night ahead. The combination of blood juice, vampire costumes, and Mia's enthusiastic plans was bound to make this an unforgettable evening—whether they were ready for it or not.
