Buffy's POV:
Halloween. My favorite time of the year. Andi likes it for the candy. Cyrus likes it since he loves making costumes, so it's sad he's not here to see it. But I love this holiday for one thing. Scaring.

And this year, I'm going to make sure that I scare everyone I know. Starting with my dearest Marty.

I sneak up behind Marty, who is wearing a Star Wars Jedi robe. I put on my IT clown mask, and shout, "RAWR!"

No reaction. I try again. Once again, nothing. I tap on his shoulder and he falls to the ground. Soon after, his head rolls away.

"AHHH OH MY GOSH!!!" I feel something grab from the behind and I scream again. In the blink of an eye, I spin around and swing at whatever grabbed me.

"Oww!" My eyes widened when I realized I hit Marty.

"Oh my gosh! Marty, I'm so sorry!"

He chuckled. "It's fine."

"No it's not. Now I have to keep scaring you until you actually die."

His face was filled with fear. I laughed. "There it is. I'm counting that as scary."

Marty looked at his watch. "Oh. I gotta go now. My sister transferred today and I promised to show her around."

"Alright. See you later." I slip the mask back on and find my next scare victim.

Bex's POV:
I ring the doorbell, and my dad answers the door. "Bex, Bowie. What a nice surprise. Come on in!"

He leads us to the kitchen where my mom was making lunch. "Hey, you two! So nice you could come. Why are you here?"

I chuckle at her sarcastic response, then I look at Bowie who smiles brightly. I hold out my hand for my parents to see. "Surprise! We're getting married."

Mom almost faints, but Dad catches her. "Wow!" He says, "This is amazing! This isn't a trick, is it? It's a treat?"

"It's 100% a treat." Bowie said.

Mom's words were all jumbled. "Wha-he-you-him-mary-weding?"

"Yes, Mom. I'm getting married to him."

"But, what about the whole asking for her father's permission thing?"

Dad laughed. "I did that a while ago. Must've forgotten about it."

Mom walked into the other room and came back with a huge binder. "I made this for when either you or Andi got married."

"Tha-that's a lot of pages."

"Well, it's only about 50 words each page."

"How many pages are there?"

"250." That number almost makes me lose my balance.

"250? Mom, I know I had A's in English, but this is a lot."

"Don't worry! We have time before the wedding. When did you plan it for?"

"We don't have a date set."

"That's perfect! We plan out the wedding first. Then find a date and venue." She plops the binder into my hands. "Chop chop. Let's get planning."

Cyrus's POV:
I place myself in the back of the class, while Jonah takes his math test. I notice that he's struggling with one of the problems, and I shout, "The answer is 15!"

To my surprise, he writes down "15" as the answer. I kind of realized that he can't see me, but at some points in time, he can kind of hear me talking.

I look at my wrist again. More petals on the flower have turned red. But what does it mean? I'm going to find out soon enough.

I just stare at the ceiling for a few minutes, when a distinct sound catches my attention. Everyone else hears it too, and fear strikes my heart. Gunshots.
