As she gazed upon the great hall, she tried counting how many types of monsters. She’d counted 35 already- unfortunately she couldn’t see the magic indoor pool in the middle of the ballroom, so her count was sure to be severely inaccurate.8964 copyright protection316PENANAKH3akf0gip 維尼
It was the night of the Halloween Ball- also affectionately called the Dance in The Hallows by many of the members. It was a night that many of the demons and monsters could stay on the over-world for a long amount of time. So, instead of torturing the over-worlders – which was honestly quite fun- some bright spark came up with the idea that all monsters should make peace and have celebrations on this day every year. That bright spark was her great great grandfather.8964 copyright protection316PENANA6Y5k5DtbfX 維尼
Normally, she’d be invited in- being a vampire, she couldn’t exactly get in by herself- but after what happened last year, they refused to let her in. God, last year was a disaster. A shiver ran down her spine as she remembered it.8964 copyright protection316PENANAs2X2pr7zOq 維尼
So this is why she was stuck up on the room, watching the filled hall and glaring at the great doors that were swung open which provided entry to the garden. Unfortunately, no one was currently in the garden- everyone just wanted to be in the great hall.8964 copyright protection316PENANAZM4qIVLqUn 維尼
36… oh, a 37th! As she continued to scan the types of monsters that enter the hall, she notices someone going outside. Smiling wickedly, she makes her way to the ground, and sneaks up behind the monster.8964 copyright protection316PENANAFaAkCTbXhs 維尼
5 feet away, and she can already tell what monster this is. The ghostly transparent white body says it all.8964 copyright protection316PENANAPSuo5iHZqP 維尼
She hears the ghost sigh- a sigh that sounds of a hard couple millennia of going through purgatory.8964 copyright protection316PENANADO3kjOJs5O 維尼
“Who are you?” The ethereal voice catches her off guard, and the ghost turns.8964 copyright protection316PENANAu7X1SmzRBJ 維尼
“Uh… Uh,” she searches for words, but can’t find any.8964 copyright protection316PENANAcwlTfFj4Wz 維尼
He studies her for a second. “Wait, aren’t you the one who, last year...?”8964 copyright protection316PENANAT933Mzd4FI 維尼
If she weren’t low on blood at that moment, she probably would have blushed in embarrassment. She nodded furiously, not trusting her voice.8964 copyright protection316PENANAyhpQTSJ9lD 維尼
There was an awkward pause between the pair. “Uh, when did you die?” She asked, but after a second, she realised her mistake. “If you don’t, of course?”8964 copyright protection316PENANA13NGaq8jH2 維尼
“No, no, it’s fine.” The white wisps grew stronger around the transparent boy. “I died sometime during the 1700’s. I can’t remember when. I was 14.”8964 copyright protection316PENANAyfgzqXMO7i 維尼
“Jeeze, you’re old. So what’s your regret?”8964 copyright protection316PENANAFuL0yy345F 維尼
“Regret?”8964 copyright protection316PENANAvlNMKRo1Ak 維尼
“You know,” She waved her hands about ambiguously. “When an over-worlder dies, and they have a regret, they become a ghost.”8964 copyright protection316PENANAETxt2gul7C 維尼
He pauses for a second of thought. “I dunno. I always wanted to be able to read and write, so maybe that’s it.”8964 copyright protection316PENANAr8OIxRUgF2 維尼
“Sounds plausible,” She comments.8964 copyright protection316PENANAERzuEM57ie 維尼
“Well, when’d you get turned?”8964 copyright protection316PENANADSV51wgm2C 維尼
“Fifteen,” She gives a proud smirk. “Customary turning age since the 19th century.”8964 copyright protection316PENANAUGSbvv18Ok 維尼
“Great,” He looks up to the position of the moon. It is halfway through the sky. “We should go back to the party. It’ll be light before you know it,”8964 copyright protection316PENANAmnTkqroUzZ 維尼
“Uh, about that…” She sweats. “I can’t.”8964 copyright protection316PENANAWGMD7T4kAw 維尼
“Why?”8964 copyright protection316PENANA7ycxhWjicq 維尼
“I need to be invited in.”8964 copyright protection316PENANAwPlywitoAc 維尼
It takes him a second to click, but it finally registers. “I’ll invite you in, then.”8964 copyright protection316PENANAncWVEmvxCx 維尼
“You will?! Thank you so much!”8964 copyright protection316PENANAi4al0bmkWT 維尼
“Just… Promise not to do the thing you did last year.”8964 copyright protection316PENANAD7FbuFjOEW 維尼
She gives him a bashful look. “I won’t promise.”8964 copyright protection316PENANApBzwPqneAP 維尼
The rest of the night passes, feeling faster than it should- she eats, they dance and talk the night away. And before they realise it, the sun is already rising.320Please respect copyright.PENANAHYrnpYFNMJ
“Well, it seems that that’s the over-world telling me that I should vacate the premises.” She jokes8964 copyright protection316PENANAqLwVyVNQ6s 維尼
The white wisps around the ghost recede quick. He knew this would come, but he wasn’t expecting it to be this painful. “You’ll… you’ll come back won’t you?” he murmurs, otherworldly voice shaking.320Please respect copyright.PENANAFS6sVtIKUt
“Hmm?”8964 copyright protection316PENANAmmSdtr1byI 維尼
“Please visit me again!” He shouts. When he realises how loud he was, he covers his transparent mouth, and his wisps recede even more. “Please, you’re the only person I’ve talked to since my death…”8964 copyright protection316PENANAtwrvVY82XP 維尼
She is completely surprised by this. But this shock is replaced with joy, and a large grin overtakes her face. “How could I not! You, after all, are the first monster I’ve talked to since my turning, excluding my family!”8964 copyright protection316PENANAUSrklmODOw 維尼
The ethereal wisps explode in size, all in a transparent shade of rose-pink.8964 copyright protection316PENANAjILBPmn6oR 維尼
