Halloween Mischief

Bart's Plan

        “Crazy Cook to Genius Gardener. Crazy Cook to Gardener, over.”

            “Genius Gardener, here. Over.”

            “What’s your situation, Gardener? Over.”

            “What are you doing?” Finny jumped in surprise before he could answer. In his hand was a small walkie-talkie that he clutched while hiding behind a corner. Standing behind him was Ciel, who was less concerned about hiding. He had been causally walking by, getting ready for dinner when he spotted Finny in camouflage pushed against a wall.

            “Master Blue has questioned me, over. Will radio when done, over.” Finny quickly whispered into the small radio before turning to Ciel. “We’re implementing Operation Orange Freedom, sir!” He saluted Ciel and held that pose while waiting for a response.

            “…Operation Orange Freedom?”

            “Yes sir!”

            Should I ask what that is?” Ciel sighed when Finny didn’t give any details. The gardener saluted again.

            “Sir, yes, sir! Operation Orange Freedom is the plan to survey the area at all hours of the day to keep strangers away! Any suspicious circumstances will be questioned on the spot and we have the right to fire at will!”

            “Fire at will? Please tell me you don’t have any weapons on you.” Ciel groaned and pitched the ark of his nose. Finny hesitated.

            “Erm, I don’t have any weapons on me?” Ciel sighed.

            “Well, just don’t blow anything up. And don’t hurt anyone, including yourself.”

            “Sir, yes sir!” Finny re-saluted the child, who continued his walk. “Genius Gardener in the clear, over.”

            Crazy people, I swear. Ciel thought to himself as he continued to the dining hall. Soon he was ready for Sebastian to bring out the food. You have to be kidding me. He mentally growled when he saw his butler. Instead of the normal suit and tie, the tall butler was dressed in orange camouflage, brown cowboy hat and dark green combat boots. “What are you wearing?”

            “A disguise for OOF. I was not able to escape it.” Sebastian mumbled as he set the pumpkin dinner in front of Ciel.

            “OOF?”

            “Operation Orange Freedom. Have you not heard of it yet?”

            “Oh, Finny just told me about it a few minutes ago.” Ciel frowned. “How is this a disguise? Any why are we still having pumpkin food?!” He scowled at the plate before him.

            “I’m supposed to look like a pumpkin. And we have to do something with all these pumpkins.” He answered. Ciel nodded and started to eat, when BOOM. They both sighed. “I’m on it, bocchan.” Sebastian sprinted out the room.

            BOOM! SMASH! BOOM!.......clink!

            Ciel flinched with each crash and shatter. When he heard the last tiny tinkle, he violently pushed himself away from the table and ran out to investigate. “What is going on?!” He shouted as he ripped the door to the entrance hall open. Instead of the three clumsy servants making a mess, he found himself gaping at a raging Sebastian chasing Bart around the hall with a broom. Tanaka waved to him from his spot on the stair railing with his hot tea.

            POP, POP, POP! Crack! BANG!

            “What?” He ignored the duo and ran for the roof, where the gunshots were being fired. Panting, he stepped onto the roof and saw Mey Rin surrounded by various guns and canons. Of course she was firing them. “Mey Rin, wha-“

            CRUNCH! BASH! WHAM

            “Oh, for the love of-!” Ciel ran to the side of the roof. In the front driveway, Finny was chucking large columns and rocks. Ciel couldn’t see what he was throwing them at, but it seemed to be in the distance down the drive. “SEBASTIAN!!”

Later

            “Operation Orange Freedom is off! No more! Do you know how much damage you have all done?!” Ciel shouted in his office. He had finally pried Sebastian out of his angered state and called for another house meeting. Now he had a dust covered Finny, smoke smelling Mey Rin, bruised and cut up Bart and a sulking Sebastian. Tanaka was the only one who was calmly sitting in the room. That was, until he grew into his serious form.

            “Of course. I suggest we move onto the next plan quickly. Look outside.” He pointed before quickly shrinking. Ciel spun and almost threw himself against the window.

            “NO!!” Everything was orange. Including the grass now. Also, instead of normal pumpkins, these pumpkins had carved faces that were looking up at him with mocking smiles. “HOW?”
