Dramatically, Jaime let out a loud scream.

"What?!" Stella jumped.

"What's wrong?!" Cassiopeia questioned.

"Is this really what we're going to be doing all night? Watching scary movies?" Jaime rubbed her forehead.

"Jaime, it's Halloween. This is what we do every year," Indigo said to her.

"What if we went to a Halloween party?"

"Are you serious?" Stella doubted.

"Why?" Rebecca asked.

"To mix things up! We're adults, we should go out and party!" Jaime urged.

"We don't have any costumes. Plus, Halloween parties can get pretty crazy," Cassiopeia pointed out.

"We can go to the store and get costumes."

"On Halloween? Are you nuts? What would be left?" Rebecca doubted.

"We'll find something! Come on, let's do this," Jaime insisted.

"Where is the party even going to be?" Indigo asked.

"Oliver is having a party," Jaime told them.

"Oliver?" Cassiopeia perked up.

"Yeah, he and his brother invited the senior class and some other college people."

"And you really want to go?" Rebecca asked.

"Yeah, it'll be fun."

"Well..." Stella hesitated.

"I guess," Rebecca shrugged.

"We'd have to get to the story like right now, though," Cassiopeia said.

"And how are we getting to the party?" Stella asked. 

"My dad can take us," Indigo suggested.

"Let's go!" Jaime jumped up.

"Did you all find something?" Jaime asked them at the Halloween store.

"I did," Stella replied.

"I did, too," Indigo said.

"Did you?" Rebecca asked Jaime.

"Yeah, I got the perfect costume," she answered.

"Cassie, did you find anything?" Stella asked her.

"Not yet," she replied.

"Wait, I have the perfect costume for you."

Stella held up a black and red catsuit.

"Really? This?" She asked.

"Of course! Your initials are CAT."

"It's meant to be," Rebecca said.

"Alright, I'll go put it on," Cassiopeia left for the dressing room.

When she returned, everyone had changed into their costumes.

Rebecca put on a blue witch dress and hat.
Stella put on a fairy costume.
Indigo chose a blue sequin devil outfit.
Jaime picked a pink angel costume.

"Ready?" Jaime asked.

"Yeah, I'm good," Cassiopeia told her.

"Alright, let's go."
