We were all walking through a town to a Halloween store that Kit found online. We then soon came to the store and walked inside the dimly light store. We looked around in awe at the large store full of costumes and decorations. "Alright lets find some costumes." I smiled and we all headed off to where the costumes were. After a few minutes I was deciding between a steampunk costume and a pirate costume. I ended up going with the steampunk. Kat was going as a zombie school girl and Kit was going as a cute monster.

We had got back at school two hours ago and so now I was walking around school grounds by myself. I then noticed a certain black haired boy who was carrying Halloween decorations. I ran over to him, starting to walk backwards. "Hey there." I said. "I thought you hated me?" He said and I shrugged. "You did save me from a cold and a bunch of showers of cleaning my hair so I guess I can deal with you." I smiled. "Also thanks for those two." I added. He nodded. "No problem." He said and stopped walking and fixed the decorations since they were falling. "Need help?" I asked and he looked at me. "No.. I'm fine." He mumbled and I rolled my eyes, taking half of the stuff. He tried to protest but I glared at him. "Nope. I'm helping and you just gotta deal with it." I smiled. "So I am guessing from starting a food fight the headmaster made you three help with the Halloween ball?" I asked and he nodded. "Yeah although the girl doesn't have to do it." He said and I nodded. "Are you three still aloud to go to the party?" I asked and he nodded. "The headmaster said that if we help to decorate we can still go. So do you have a costume?" He asked and I nodded, stepping into the halls. "Thank you." I said when he held the door for me. "Yes I do have one. What about you?" I asked. "Not yet. I don't think I'll have any time to get one." He shrugged and he held the door to the cafeteria again. "Nonsense!" I said. "Tomorrow you will go to this Halloween store I went to and will stay here and decorate for you." I said, setting down what I was holding and grabbed a napkin, putting down the Halloween stores name. "Here you go." I said, handing him it. "Thanks." He chuckled, putting it into his pocket.

Next Day

I had two box fulls of more decorations. Kovu was at the store getting his costume so I was helping the other people decorate in his place. Me and a girl with short pink hair were talking as we put everything up. "I saw you yesterday talking to Kovu.." She said lightly and I tilted my head. "Yeah? So what?" I asked as I put up a zombie. "Well I over heard that you are here in his place so he can get a costume." She smiled. "I think you like him!" She giggled. My cheeks turned to a pale pink. "I do not!" I huffed, doing my decorations. I heard Amaya giggle as she helped me out.

~~~~~~~

I was heading back to my dorm room, eyes drooping with sleep. I yawned, closing my eyes on instinct. At the end of the yawn I had run into someone. I hit my head onto the wall and I opened my eyes and saw Kovu. "Ow.." I mumbled, standing up, rubbing my head. "Sorry." He said and ran off. I watch him and huffed, walking into my dorm. "Back guys." I yawned again and sat on my bed. I looked at Kit and Kat who were watching a Halloween movie. I stayed up to watch the rest with them but near the end I ended up falling asleep.

~~~~~~~

I woke up to see that it was still dark outside. I sat up and rubbed my eyes and found that the only thin in the room was my bed. I stood up and walked to my door, opening it. "H-hello?" I stammered. The halls were lightly lit so you could only see a few things in the halls. I stepped out of my room and turned left and started walking. I kept seeing small spots and pools of red, and I thought it was just paint but when it got bigger I knelt down, catching the faint smell of not paint but blood. My face paled and I bolted back up, running down the hall. I skidded to a stop when I saw a door opened slightly. I pushed it opened and was welcome by freezing air. I stepped inside and saw two outlines of bodies. I narrowed my eyes to try and see what or who they were. I then noticed blood was coming from the two things. I looked to my side and switched on the light, only to be greeted by a dim light but I could see what the two lumps were. I looked over and what I saw made my face pale even more. Laying limp beside each other was Kit and Kat. I turned around and ran out of the room. I came to a stop at a dead end and turned around to go back to a turn I saw a tall figure wearing a black long sleeved shirt, white hands, and... A faceless white face. "H-hi Slender." I smiled awkwardly and couldn't seem to move when I saw a door next to me. I watched as Slender walked closer to me and I screamed.

~~~~~~~

I screamed and woke up, sitting up and looking around to see Kit and Kat waking up from my scream. "What's wrong?" Kat asked and I took a breath to calm my nerves. "N-nothing.. Just a bad dream." I mumbled, laying back down. I sneezed before falling back asleep.
