Trick or Treat

C/n- costume name


"I'm so excited!" Peggy squels at you.
I nod and agree because your going trick or treating! I promised to go with Peggy, Brian, my little brother Andy and Rosabell. I'm  wear your (c/n) costume on while Peggy is wearing a pumpkin costume.
"Should I add lights in to make rye eyes glow," she asked you as she pulled out two plastic lights.
I replied , "Go for it!"
Penny shouted at mum, " We are ready to roll!"
Mum came with her phone and said, "Just one photo you know,for memories."
She quickly snapped a photo or two and took us outside. There standing was Rosabell as a witch, Andy and Brian as a wolf. The thing was that mum made Andy wear a costume similar to mine just with a few changes.
"Did you dress up like your little bro?" Rosabell asked weirded out.
I hesitantly replied," No, no just a little coincidence ha,ha," I  said shrugging.
"Yay! My big sibling and I are the same!"
Brian then jumps in and says, " Let's go WHOOOOOO!!!!"
Sometimes i wonder about this  child, man, baby.

We started at Mrs. Wilson's, Mr Jones and many other houses with pumpkins and packets full of treats. I then noticed an odd looking house. It was dusty and old but I swore I could see a light over all the webs.
"Probably just decor," i said in my head but i was still  hesitant on going to knock. 
I walked quickly passed it.
"Hey," Peggy said. "YOU said we are going to every house, including this one."
Rosabell then comes and says, "I heard, that someone the owner is a dude and his wife died from poisoning! It will be so cool, going to a freaky house!"
That made me feel even worse.

Rosabell grabbed your hand and we all went to the door. She knocked.
I quickly said, " Well no one in I guess we can go." But I spoke too soon. 

The door cracked open and we saw an old man standing there an he looked nothing like a ghost fortunately.
"Why hello there kids," he said in his sweet old man voice.
Everyone besides me said,"Trick or Treat!"
"Why arent you all so cute!" the man said.
He then gave us all two Kit-Kats, jumbo sized.
"Thanks sir!" Andy  said.
We went off.

We finished all the houses and went back to my house.
I then shouted, "There is no way we are bringing evil chocolate in my house! Let's go to Peggy's!"

We made it there. We all counted our treats.
"Yes, twenty one!" Rosabell said.
"I got eighteen," Brian said.
"I got fifteen!" Andy shouted.
"Oh, I got nineteen," Peggy said.
"What did you get?" Brian asked me.
"Dont you think it's a little weird that we got different numbers of sweets, despite us all going to the same houses?"
"So?" Rosabell replied. "That is why it's fun,so you get more snacks!"
"I'm gonna eat the Kit-Kat!" Andy said.
"Me too!" the others said.
I'm not because I do not wanna die!
They all took a bite.
"Yummy!" Brian said.
"I feel tingly," Peggy said. "I need to go to the bathroom.
She ran up. We could hear her throw up.
"Maybe the man gave us expired ones by mistake," Rosabelle said.
Brian replied, " It does explain why I never saw it in the shop."
I say, "But don't you work at the shops?!"
I check the ingredients of the chocolate. I gasp. It said:
Made in: underworld poison shop

"Ewwww omg!!!!!" Rosabell said.
"I don't feel good," Andy said.
"(Y/n)," he then said.
"Yes?" I replied.
"I..."
"Yes," I say.
"I....."


"Love you."
I got confused and said the same "Love you too" but I gasped when he collapsed.
"Maybe he was tired?" Brian said shaking.
I checked his pulse.
Phew, there was a beat.

But then............ It stopped.
I start sobbing that I lost my brother.
Then Brian collapsed. Rosabell and I ran up into the bathroom.
"Peggy!" We shouted.
No answer.
We ran in to see her dead on the floor with blood everywhere. She must have vomited blood!?
Then Rosabell falls down and says to me, "I hope we see each other again, up there," she whispered as she pointed up.
That was her last words.

I cry while I run downstairs and call 911. They came and I told them the whole story. I showed them the house but the house was gone. All that was left were bricks and rubble.
It couldn't be.
That man is not even real,so was the house.
Then it came to me. His wife was poisoned so maybe he getting revenge.
But now om alone and wait, my mum told me she got a chocolate from the man and saved it for today. Oh God no. Not my mother. She shared it with dad. 

IM ALONE
