Maisie grew up not being able to celebrate Halloween with her siblings and mother. However, her grandmother, Aggie, is always ready and willing to celebrate with them. So, one day, Maisie's twin sister, Marnie, and their younger brother, Dylan, deci...
The Halloween Townies had looked at Maisie like she was the freak after she got pulled through the locker.
"Marnie, Maisie, you both should know that things aren't always what they seem," Aggie told them.
Maisie looked around the room, which honestly looked cozy. If only the floor was carpeted... She noticed how Ethan and Cassie were sitting together at a table. Maybe Ethan had a crush on Cassie.
"Hmm," Marnie said. "This is way better than a teachers' lounge."
"It's kind of to echo-y," Maisie replied.
"Can I please take this off now?" asked Chester, grabbing at his hair.
"Oh, yes, of course, dear," Aggie told him. "You're perfectly safe in here." She looked at the others, "Oh, and if anyone else wants to unzip, it's okay."
"Oh, it's about time," a boy said.
"Oh, finally," a girl said.
One by one, the Crew started taking off their human disguises.
One of the girls was a fairy or pixie.
"Oh, no," Marnie said. "Things are definitely not what they seem."
The only one who wasn't wearing a human disguise was Ethan, so chances were that he was a warlock.
Chester was fanning himself with both hands, "How much longer do I have to wear this stupid human suit?"
"To humans, none of you exist," Maisie pointed out.
"Hopefully, over time, we change all that," Marnie added.
There was an obnoxious banging sound coming from somewhere. Maisie looked up at the ceiling like everyone else was doing.
"I think it's coming from the locker door," Maisie pointed out. It sounded like metal was hitting metal. She had the paranoid thought that it was a knight, but the Knights were make-believe. Right?
"Don't worry about it, dear," Aggie told Maisie. "It's probably just the pipes. My magic hasn't set yet."
"Oh, that's it," replied the crew.
"I'm already starting to make new friends," Cassie said to another girl. "These two cheerleaders walked past me and said, 'what are you looking at, freak?' Isn't that sweet? They actually thought I was a freak. It was so great."
"Oh, when they pass out mice in biology, you're apparently not supposed to eat them. But," Chester said to Ethan and two other boys. There was a pause, like they were waiting for the punchline of a joke. "I had three." They laughed.
