Irvine, Vermont

It was a clammy day, with rain falling. Puddles were scattered all over, and that made Lisa feel uncertain about tonight, when she was gonna go trick or treating with her friends, Dan, and Aria. She was gonna be a clown, and she didn't want the rain to wash off her makeup.

Rain would continue in the Green Mountain State, into tonight. It was getting dark, now, and trick or treat time had arrived, swiftly. "Honey, get your trick or treat bag, and wait for your pals to show up!" said Lisa's mother.

"It hasn't stopped raining, Mom!" protested Lisa, already in clown attire. "My makeup will wash off!"

"A little rain ain't gonna hurt!" said her mother. "Your friends are here! Have fun, now!"

Lisa sighed and went trick or treating with Dan and Aria. Dan was a cowboy, and Aria was a mermaid. They went from house to house, scoring candy. Kit Kats, Skittles, Twix, you name it. A heavy downpour blew on through, ridding Lisa's makeup, much to her horror.

"Stupid rain!" she snarled.

"Oh, man!" gasped Aria.

"Sorry, Lisa!" said Dan.

"Not your fault," said Lisa.



A/N Tough luck, Lisa! You should have been a witch, instead!
