Chapter 17

Trigger Warning: Ticking

Erika's p.o.v.

Erika shot out of bed. She knew what holiday it was. Erika dug around in her trunk and found the perfect costume. Kim Boggs. Erika got dressed and then went over to Lydia's bed.

"Hey Lydia, what are you going to be for Halloween?" Erika said, standing at the foot of her bed. Lydia peeked her head out from the curtains and smiled.

"Nice costume! Kim Boggs?" She asked. Erika smiled and nodded. "But can you please open my curtains? I don't want to rip them." Erika nodded and opened them to reveal a gothic steampunk costume with scissors on the gloves. Erika raised her only eyebrow at Lydia.

"Who's this?"

"Edward Scissorhands! But I need you to zip up the back for me." Erika nodded and did that for her. Erika walked back to her bed and sat down, waiting for Wednesday to wake up.

"Good mourning Erika," Wednesday said from behind, causing Erika to scream. Erika turned around and glared at Wednesday.

"So Wednesday. what are you gonna be for Halloween?" Erika asked, sitting on her trunk.

"A sociopath. They look like everyone else," Wednesday said. Erika rolled her eyes at Wednesday's excuse.

"C'mon, let's go," Erika said, getting up and grabbing Wednesday's arm. Erika walked over to Lydia, who was failing to pick up a hair comb.

"Can you guys tease my hair?" Lydia asked. Erika grabbed two hair combs, handed one to Wednesday and started getting to work.

About five minutes later, Lydia had confirmed her hair good enough and the three walked to the Great Hall.

"Caramel apples! Free Halloween treat! Come get your caramel apples!" a girl called. Erika, Wednesday and Lydia walked up to the stand.

"Can we get some?" Erika asked.

"Sure!" a girl with brown curly hair said, smiling. Erika and Lydia looked at each other, very unsure. "Pick!" she insisted. Erika shrugged and grabbed one covered in candy corn. Wednesday grabbed a plain caramel apple, and Lydia struggled to pick a caramel apple covered in sprinkles up. Erika picked it up for her. The three happily walked away with their treats.

The three sat down at their table and Erika let Lydia eat her caramel apple.

"PLÙ!" Lydia spat, an onion? Before Erika could ask to confirm Snape yelled.

"WHO DARES TO INSULT ME WITH THIS ONION!?!"

Erika and Lydia giggle while Wednesday rolls her eyes. Erika took a bite of her caramel apple and starts crying. Erika chewed her caramel onion and swallows.

"What's wrong?" Wednesday asked.

"I got an onion covered in onion," Erika whined. (Erika, that's what all onions are! D:< -Darry)

"Don't you mean an onion covered in caramel?" Lydia asked. Erika nodded.

"I'll trade you two," Wednesday said. Erika gave Wednesday. Wednesday showed that she had two halves of an apple. Erika and Lydia looked at each other, confused. "I have one half of an apple for both of you, and you give me your onions," Wednesday explained Erika and Lydia looked at each other and then nodded and gave their onions to Wednesday.

Erika had to feed Lydia because it was hard for her to grab and hold stuff.

"Hey Wednesday!" some Ravenclaw third-year boy called. Erika looked over at Wednesday and raised her eyebrow at her.

"That's my brother, Pugsley." Erika nodded. Pugsley walked over, loudly munching on a caramel apple covered in nuts. Erika didn't have a problem with chewing, but this bothered her.

Lydia's p.o.v.

"Pugsley, these are my friends, Lydia and Erika," Wednesday. Lydia made a sound that sounded like 'hello' and lifted one of her arms, wiggling her hand side to side, trying to wave. Erika didn't respond, instead, she was glaring at Pugsley. Lydia swallowed her apple chunk and tapped Erika with the back of her hand on her back. Erika turned to face Lydia.

"Rikki, you okay?"

"I wanna rip out his teeth like dentures and rip his tongue out, shove it down hit throat and tie his arms and legs together," Erika growled, her head jerking to the up and then to the side.

"Please answer my question,"

"Was my answer not good enough?" Erika growled, her head jerking in all directions.

"Follow me," Lydia said, getting up. Erika grabbed her arm.

"I don't want to seem rude," Erika growled. Lydia frowned and sat back down.

"Can I at least eat the rest of my apple?" Lydia asked. Erika held the apple up and Lydia ate it.

Time Skip to dinner because I want too

Erika's p.o.v.

Lydia was licking a lollypop because it was easy for her to hold, Wednesday was eating some 100% dark chocolate and Erika had hidden lots of candy in her secret dress pockets. Erika was eating something with marshmallows as well.

Professor Quirrel suddenly ran in.

"TROLL IN THE DUNGEONS, TROLL IN THE DUNGEONS! I thought you 'ought to know," he said before passing out on the floor. Erika shoved her marshmallow thing in her mouth and grabbed Lydia's lollypop so her friend could freak out. Dumbledor started talking. Erika swallowed her marshmallow thing.

"Us and the Hufflepuffs are in the dungeons," Erika said, looking at her friends. Lydia was snipping her scissors like crazy. Erika felt her ticks come on. The three followed the crowd to their common room.

The three got undressed and went to bed.
