Happy Haloween ? -open-

[Alice Cullen]

a l i c e



Another dark and lonely evening, but not for some. For it had come about again, the thirty first of october, Haloween. And all the muggle children were outside, knocking on doors up and down the street, all except htis one, for the house was hidden away, protected by it's enchantments. And athough they were there for a reason alice cursed them to hell. For she wished that the children would come up, knock at her door, so that she could give them sweets. It was not some pverted desire, more a part muggle maternal instinct. She had been out allready in her invisibility, tagging along with some of the groups under a dissilusionment charm, slipping sweets into bags where possible. She had procured the muggle sweets specially for the evening. It would be a dead giveaway if a muggle child found his or herself a chocolate frog.

Of course she had seen a few, the wizarding children wiith their parents traveling by side along apparation to visit. And she had enjoyed every minute of it, leaping up and running to the hallway to hand out the sweets. Lingering on the door step watching the night for a long time after they had gone. Alice was still just a child at heart, she had dressed her room and put on costume for the occasion. A vampire, according to the muggle looks, with one of her favourite dresses and her canines elongated ridiculously it had the idea efect. She laughed to herself. Her room was lit with candles, and there was a grinning pumpkin in the window. She had even gone so far as to spread streamers all about the room in orange and black and enchanted miniture bats to fly about the room.

"I love haloween"

She sighed wistfully to herself.

[Artemis-Mai Alcippe]

Artemis fell somewhat gracefully through the door her hair completley soaken as if she'd taken a shower however it hadn't exactly been raining outside. Dispite her obviously dripping hair the rest of her outfit was perfectly dry. She hadn't dressed up today like usual in a dark dress but had bootleg cut faded blue jeans and a mans rugby top in white with black stripes going across. She'd seemed to have left her cloak at home and therefore just seemed like a normal muggle. Humming lightly to herself she dropped a brown grocers bag into the houself's arms and smiled lightly watching her ring catch the small light from the crack of light falling through a slightly open door and let a large smile lift her cheeks. Nobody had noticed yet and something told her people wern't really expecting her to be engaged anyway.

Running up the stairs after kicking off her shoes she stopped and looked at the room number with a confused frown before picking a room which just felt right and knocked on the door before turning the door knob to the right and ducking as a bat dived at her. Artemis laughed quietly before walking in without invitation and looking at Alice.
"Happy Halloween, I bought you a little something because I know you love this day like everyone else loves christmas!"
Digging into her pocket she purposefully handed the gift over with her left hand watching the stones glisten again.

- ah sorry but I'm not really in the right place lol oh well-

A quiet clunking sound signalled the return of Arti and Alice smiled. She could quite easily chart her friends progress through the house, she could hear her as she travelled through the empty, echoing house, heard the house elf taking something from her. Not for the first time she was glad that it was not Tober who lived at this house, that particular house self was one that she could not help but hate with a passion. She did not, as a rule have anything against house elves, but that particular house elf was an exception to the rule and she hated him oh so much. Not for the first time she envisaged snapping the tiny creatures neck and dancing on the remains. It was a nice thought but not one she could every go through with and she knew it, no matter how much she hated him. Alice was not the type to wish death upon anyone.
She was still considering the idea when her bedroom door swung quietly open and Arti appeared in it, fully dressed in muggle garb. She smiled as her friend entered the room, taking the little pumpkin candle from her and smiling widely,
“Thanks you so much m dear!” she enthused “You’re right I really do love Halloween, like a little kid aren’t I?”
She laughed to herself, setting the little glowing candle on her bedside table where it grinned manically at her; she shifted herself along to make room for Arti, patting the bed at her side to indicate she should sit down. She stretched her own legs out momentarily from their crossed position, pointing her toes so that the clicked slightly before refolding them back under herself neatly, something like a cat. As Arti had held her hand out she had noticed a shimmering ring residing there, but she decided to play her friend at her own game.
“Soooo,” she began, “What’s this i hear about you and Rom then?”
She laughed lightly, a tinkling noise of happiness. She already suspected something, but it was Arti’s turn to tell the news. After all it was not every day you got to tell someone something that important after all. Pulling her knees up to her chest Alice turned to smile at her friend innocently.[/right][/font]
