The thing with being spooky!

It's once again the spooky season of the year. Haku is always most active in this season getting really into the spooktober spirit but never actually going outside but this year this is about to change. Haku again has picked out a costume of his new favourite videogame character, Allister from the newest Pokémon games. He even got a black haired wig.

A sudden knock on his door sent him jumping in the air full of fear. He scrambled back to his feet before slowly approching the door very carefully. Slowly creaking through the halls he stood before his door. >> Who- Who's there?<<
>> It's me, let me in Haku<<
>>Tristan? Why didn't you call me earlier before coming here? Or even write would have been good aswell<<
>>Sorry, my bad! Will you, let me in?<<

The door opened very slowly and Tristan saw the somewhat scared Haku. He took a step backwards. The sight of Haku in fear was surprising to him and he didn't expect that he had scared Haku that much. Although it is Halloween what is coming up.
>>I'm so so sorry Haku<<
>>No worrries. But can you please not come into my room right now, it's a bit of a mess and I want to get dressed for later<<
>>Later? Going to a par-... nevermind you hate those things.<<
>> Yeah I hate them, but you know some friends want me to tag along with them, should I?<<
>>I dont know, should you?<<
>> That's what I'm asking you for!<<
>>Well, do you want to go?<<
>>Kinda! But only because of them!<<
>>Well, do you want me to tag along?<<
>>...yes please...<<
With those words Haku closed his room behind him. He writes to Mike about the party. Mike was the one who asked him to come with anyway.

After finishing the text with Mike he went back to putting on his costume. He started with the clothes, the long sleeved pullover with a collar. The Pullover has widened sleeves with two soft purple stripes a logo on the center of it resembeling a yellow smile on a black circle witha ghost like floating stripe on the top of it. The Colar is in the same coloration of the stripes on the sleeves. Everything remaining is also in black but not as violent as the black on the symbol
The pants are mostly this pastel purple with black on the outer and inner sides. There are two suspenders in white holding it up. He wears white boots that looks as if two waves washed over them. He has a black glove with some spots of pastel purple on them. He wears a mask that somewhat resembles a ShyGuy from Super Mario.
The last piece is the wig with Black hair. Most of it leans over the right side if you look at him from the front, one big curl hangs over the right side too. This is how he left the room.

>>Holy shit... that was fast for something like that<<
>>Oh, I'm used to changing quickly into different outfits hehe<<
>>Do you have something for me too, I will be coming along to the party and I assume it's a costumeparty isn't it?<<
>>Well, you're not wrong. In fact you're very right in that assumption<<
>>Well then,... do you have anything for me?<<
>>Uhh... I think I might have something but itmight not entirely fit you. Is that okay?<<
>>Only if I'm not exposed by it.<<
Quick ran Haku past Tristan into his room ravaging for a costume. He came running out with some cream sheets and began to put a scissor to them. It looks as if the material dematerializes from his hands into a finished piece because Haku works so fast on this costume for his friend. He again went into his room to fetch some other cloth and as he had finished his costume it looked like a Pikachu.
>>That good enough?<<
>>It may not be scary, but it fits more than enough for today<<

After Tristan put on the cloth and admired himself in the mirrors both of them heard the ringing of a bell. Mike had been a bit late already but late enough for the others to finish on time for their late running.
>>Hey kiddos! Heard you need a ride. Wow where'd you get that Pikachu outfit? It looks nice<<
A glance at Haku from Tris made it clear as day to Mike.
>>Haha.. I see, the classical Haku tailoring some outfits, how about you make me one too for next year?<<
Before Haku even got as much as his breath out Mikes voice again echoed through the room
>>But let's not talk about that now, I'm already late so you're late too and we don't want that<
Both Tristan and Haku nodded in agreement. All three of them rushed out the door and more or less tripping into the car.

As they drove along the road all of them knew they were late and the air was very awkward.
>>Almost heaven-<< Mike started singing along with the radio to break the silence.
It seemed to work perfectly and soon the car drove along the highway harmonizing the entire duration. It made the drive way less awkward. They drove into a free parkinglot and rushed to the home of Luanne who was hosting todays party.
>>What are we gonna say for running late boys?<< Mike
>>You mean, what do you gonna say, right?<< Tristan
>>I mean aren't we all in this together Tristan?<< Mike
>>Of course we are in that NOT all together<< Haku
>>You too Haku?<< Mike
Through their argument they didn't notice the door opening and a somewhat surprised Luanne peering out.
>>You... actually came Haku?<< Luanne
>>What? Why wouldn't I not come?<< Haku
>>You normally don't like such gathering of people<< Luanne
>>That's fair, you are very much avoiding such events<< Mike
>>Oh, you want to come in? It probably is warmer inside<< Luanne
She slightly smiled and waved them in before dissapearing behind the doo, still holding it open. Still a bit irritated the group walked in. Observing the room it was just a small room before the living room.
>>Oh, Tristan, Haku you look amaizing, I've never seen such perfectly tailored costumes before<< Luanne
>>Oh stop flattering Haku too much or else he'll leave due to emberessment<< Mike
He slightly nodded.
>>Oh, my bad, but they do look amaizing if I say so myself, and I do... say so myself that is<<
>>Thank you, should we go through that door to get to the party?<<
She nodded slightly opening the door. The light from in there filled all of their vision. As they approched the room the music started filling their ears and the vision got fludded by the sheer amount of people in the room that brought Haku to nearly faint.
