"Sunny, are we there yet?"

"Bea, I told you it's long drive! Stop complaining!"

Beatrice groaned, "It feels like we've been sitting in the car for hours!"

Sunny rolled her eyes at her. Sunny Baudelaire and Beatrice Snicket were driving to the Baudelaire/Quagmire estate for Halloween. The two were 15 and 14 respectively, and Sunny had recently obtained her driver's license. The two teens were planning to take Nikki, Lizzie, and Sam trick-or-treating while their parents went out for dinner and a movie. Sunny and Beatrice were best friends ever since the two had started officially attending Whitmore Academy together in their preschool days.

The two had even decided to dress up for the occasion. Sunny was dressed as a vampire, at her nephew Sam's suggestion, wearing a black dress and cloak and her face painted pale white with black lipstick and heavy eye-shadow. She had recently started dying her blonde hair black out of personal preference. Sunny's sharp teeth had grown in permanently as a grown up, and her nieces and nephew thought it made her look like a vampire. She had taken it as a compliment. Beatrice was dressed as a female Robin Hood, wearing a green, hooded top and brown vest with a short green skirt and green leggings and black boots. She had even brought a toy bow and arrow set for authenticity. The two were more than happy to provide the kids with a fun night, despite being too old for trick-or-treating themselves.

Sunny pulled the car into the driveway of the large estate in the middle of the three houses, "We're here; you can stop whining now."

Beatrice smiled, "Finally!"

The two got out of the car and went up to the middle house on the lot where they had been told to meet. Before Sunny could knock on the door it flung open to reveal a little girl with black hair, wide brown eyes, and dark blue-rimmed glasses smiling brightly up at them. She looked nearly identical to Klaus with the exception of her hair and eye colors that she got from Isadora.

"Aunt Sunny, you're finally here!"

"Hello, Lizzie," Sunny bent down to hug her niece.

"What am I, chopped liver? Give your Auntie Beatrice a hug too kid!"

"Oh sorry, Beatrice," the small girl gave her a hug.

Lizzie led them to the living room where everyone was waiting. Nikki and Sam excitedly ran up to hug the two teens and show off their costumes.

"What are you guys supposed to be," Sunny asked.

"I'm Wednesday Addams," Nikki replied; she was wearing an old-fashioned black dress with her black hair braided neatly in two long ponytails over her shoulders and wearing a modest amount of Gothic make up for her costume.

"I'm a witch," Lizzie said; she couldn't have been mistaken for anything else because of her robes and pointy hat.

"And I'm a pirate," Sam said with a big grin, "Just like my grandfather Captain Widdershins!" He was of course wearing a pirate costume with a hat over his messy hair and a plastic sword attached to his belt.

"For the last time, Sam," Fiona added rolling her eyes and patting her son's head, "Your grandfather is not a pirate."

Sam was a more complete mixture between his parents. Quigley and Fiona both had black hair and their son had inherited this, but his facial features looked more like his father; his skin tone was mixed between his pale father and his darker skinned mother. He hadn't inherited his mother's poor eyesight, but he did get his father's green eyes.
