"We're the best hiders in this entire town!" Lock snarled, sticking his tongue out at Evanesce. Good thing SHock made her drop them. He hated being short enough for people to easily pick him up. Barrel, once released, scurried away and dashed towards Laura, slingshot in hand.

*wait is this just a Laura and LS&B sorta plan. If it is then I'll pull out and await the next round. Also just realised it's set in the past, 2 years, right?*
Shadow kept rummaging through his desk. She had managed to sneak into Dr Finklestein's tower unnoticed. It was beyond her how she managed to get past the fields of traps and the dangers of the Acid Works.
Luckily no one was there or at least she found no one around. She had to find it amongst the masses blueprints and notes the mad scientist kept. She needed them to learn more about her chosen profession.
The teenager paused as she came across a notebook. It was small and hidden at the back of a bookshelf. It's title was 'The advanced tricks and tips to being a Mad Scientist'
Shadow did a victory pose as she shoved the book into her already crowded backpack. This was exactly what she needed to give her own research and experiments a boost. Judging by the dusty condition of the book, it wouldn't be missed.

"Oh no!!" A young gilr cried. "I'm gonna be late for school AGAIN!!" The blonde yelled to no one special. She had on a sailor school uniform, the spring one. The one with the short sleeves and the shorter lighter skirt. She had long, VERY lonf shiny blonde hair with two pigtails and buns on her head. She loked like a little bunny. She ran faster and faster to make it to Crossroads Junior High. She grabed her cresent moon pendent that was swinging around her neck for good luck. "Haro!Haro1Late!You gonna be late!" a pink, sphere-shaped robot said. It was haro, her best friend, who followed her everywhere. Then girl stopped running and leaned against a tree. She was out of breath. "Uh oh...haro lost.....Serena?" Haro said to the girl in it's robotic voice. The girl named Serena looked up. Haro was right...They were lost. She was in some forest that looked like it hadn't seen beauty in who knows how long. The trees where gray and the branches dead. serena gasped. She had no clue where she was! She couldn't be lost! She had to get to school. She loked around her, behind here, but all she saw was trees. " Haro! Get us outa here!" Serena started to panic. " What am I suppossed ta do dammit!" Haro asked her. Serena had no clue where to go. "I think that might be the way.." Serena guessed seeing some light. Her haro followed her. As Serena walked on, she felt something come over her. It wasn't really dread, it felt more like, destiny. Like she needed to be here, like she knew someone here.....Like she HAD to meet somewhere here...... "What is this place!?" Serena gasped as she walked into Halloween Town.

Laura had awoke, letting go of Twilightflower. She stared at the little kids that seemed to be tormenting her...aquaintence. She was scared of going out of town alone, but...she was more scared of being in town at the moment, especially seeing Shock use her magic on Evanesce to trap her in a circle of spinning statues. She edged away, and in a moment, she was out of the gate and trying to get as far away as possible. She hurried through the graveyard, trying to find a good place to stop and just...loose it. She stopped under a large tree, huge, much bigger than a normal tree, and sat at its base, curling her knees up to her chest and crying into them. ((Hey, FA, why don't we get Hanging Tree in here? He's usually helpfull.)) Ali was wandering the graveyard nearest the Hinterlands, trying to stay away from people at the moment. She had to wait to find a proper victim, someone not from Halloween Town. See, Ali was a vampire, and her thirst was overwhelming her. She had to find someone...

(Hanging Tree? And Ranga, yeah, it's (sometime) in the past, and no, it's not just Laura and the trio. ) Lock giggled as he pulled his plunger seemingly out of nowhere. One of the only special abilities he had. Pulling his plunger out of thin air. At least, that's what it always seemed like he was doing. But then he scowled. How was he supposed to attack Evanesce without getting hit by the statues himself? That made him think. He knew how to do it! He'd use his plunger to bounce him up in the air so he could flip over the statues! And thus Lock's annoying jumping insanely high and landing on people's heads with his plunger attack was born. The Hanging Tree usually hung out in the graveyard, unless he was needed in town. For some reason, he just liked standing there, near the old tree, and watching his Hanged Men scramble about, doing whatever they felt like doing.

Evanesce was too confined in the circle to do any of the magic she could control, and she wouldn't risk loosing control. That had happened before, and it had been really hard for her to go back to normal. ((Loosing control makes her go evil. If she ever gets her magic back under control, she can go back to being this nice person she used to be.)) Laura looked up at the tree under the bigger tree, but didn't notice that it was alive. She just figured it was another tree. So she curled back up into her miserable position. It was obvious that she was extremely upset and confused. She just wanted someone to tell her what to do. She wasn't sure what to do or where to go, she had no friends or familly here. She felt...lonely.

"YAAAAAH!" Lock screeched as he fell out of the sky, plunger aimed at Evanesce's head. Ha! He wasn't too short to hit people in the head! It just took a little extra effort, that's all. The Hanging Tree slowly turned to Laura after one of the Hanged Men nearly bumped into her. "Sorry 'bout that," he apologized as he walked over and bent town, picking up said Hanged Man and hanging him back on one of his branches. "They always seem to be getting into trouble this time of year." He frowned a little at the expression on her face. "You a new arrival?"

Laura swallowed shyly. "Y-yeah..." she muttered. She wasn't scared of Hanging Tree for some reason. Now, the hanging men were another matter, but they seemed harmless enough. Maybe it was just because it wasn't so insane out here. She was still feeling a little lost and confused though. She really wanted to go home, but she was betting that wasn't going to happen. Evanesce looked up and grabbed the end of the plunger, swinging it so Lock was close to the statues. She smirked. She loved messing with the trick or treaters. She made sure she didn't hurt them on purpose though.

Serena kept walking around until she hit a graveyard. The feeling that she was suppossed to meet someone here was getting stronger and it was swelling in her chest. Or it could be fear, fear of being in a dark, scary, deserted graveyard." Ooh," Serena shivered." Being in gravyards sure creeps me out!What about you haro?" Serena asked haro strocking him. "Haro No!!!" haro answered. serena, the scaredy cat that she was, was not sure if she should start yelling around or keep quite. She setteled for yelling around." HELLO" Serena called loudly.
"Help!! Help please!! Some one, help me!!!" a young girl cried. She was bleeding all over the place and she was locked in a freezer, a Mcdonalds freezer. Some guy had stabbed her and lcoked her in a cold freezer. The young burnette coughed up blood." Oh.....God!" she screamed. She curled up into a ball and tried to keep warm. She was bleeding and freezing to death." HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!!" Bellatrix, the dying girl cried.
(( For now, she wil go by Bellatrix))
Bellatrix woke up on a hard, rough ground. A cool autum hair was blowing leaves in her snow-white hair. She looked around the forest. Where, am I? She wondered. She got up and swayed alittle. Then she gasped as she looked down into a pond. She looked..Different. She was more beautiful then she ever was. Snow-white hair, long, sparkling white dress and sleeves. High-heels that must be made of diamonds! What happened to her!!!

Lock now had a death grip on his plunger. But that didn't help him. He shrieked loudly as he swung into the statues. "OWIE!" he yelled angrily. Now he was definitely going to bug Evanesce until he tired of it. You don't fight a Boogie Boy unless you want them jumping at you every chance they get. "Well. Does Jack know?" the Hanging Tree asked. "Never mind, I'll take you to meet him. What's your name?"

"L-laura," she stammered. But she was glad there were a few friendly people here. It was helping her calm down. But she was still worried and still scared. She picked herself up from where she had still been sitting and stood. Obviously, Hanging Tree was much taller than her. She wasn't very tall for her age, and twelve year olds were short anyways. Just from the way the little blonde was standing, she was obviously shy and recesive. Evanesce tossed Lock out of the circle just as the statues dissappeared. She felt angry, and that wasn't good. She glanced around, then disappeared. She had to go somewhere and calm down. Ali's head jerked up, scenting blood. Warm blood, not the cold blood of those that lived in Halloween Town. That would have to do. She was getting desperate, too desperate to be picky. She followed Serena's scent, fangs growing out.

Serena looked around. No one had answered her. That feeling again was growing stronger and stronger. And dread. Serena lloed down. Her moon amulet was glowing white. That ment she was in danger. "AAA!!" Serena screamed. Pain shot through her body. She would become Twilight soon. "NOOOOO!" she scremaed. She couldn't turn into twilight here. Not here. She could kill so many....."AAA!!!" she screamed. Then the pain shot through her again. She didn't know what to do and she just said it." TWILIGHT COSMIC POWER!!" she screamed pulling out her pink lipstick. She waved it over her moon amulet and then her clothes vanished( THANK GOD OOGIE IS NOT THERE!!) and she was covered in pink ribbons. After a few moments, the blinde turned burnette, her sweetn innocent smile turned to that of hate and evil, she looked like a hooker and had a black cresent moon on ehr forehead. Her haro zoomed around here. She was no longer Serena. She was now.....The evil, murderous, Sailor Twilight.
Bellatrix walked around. She was confused. Was she dead? She had to have been, she was stab so many times, and froze. She must be dead. She walked around not paying attention to where she was going, when she walked inot a town. She saw cats, and 3 small kids? She walked toward them." hello?" she said unsure for the first time in her life wha to do. She was so populare, and always knew what to say. She was beautiful too...She never thought her beauty would cost her her life......

"ATTACK!" the enraged Lock screeched, too upset to notice that Bellatrix wasn't Evanesce. he charged at the girl with his plunger, eyes narrowed and his tail thrashing about. It was almost as if he had been called a midget. "Come with me, Jack will explain everything you need to know." The Hanging Tree gathered up the rest of his Hanging Men, hanging them back on his branches as he walked towards town in that slow way of his.

"HOLY CRAP!" shrieked Shadow as she dived to the floor. A robotic saw blade sliced through the air above her head. Wide eyed and frantic Shadow started sprinting through the tower. She had to escape. Dr Finklestein may have been absent, but his security system sure as hell wasn't.
Naturally, Shadow loathed running because of her heavier build. But lasers, blades, claws and robotic limbs was enough to make ANYONE run. She was only sixteen at the time, she didn't want to die so early! She was already familiar with the rituals and rites of death and didn't want to put such a burden on her already broken family.
She didn't have time to fight back, she had to get out of here as she burst through the front door of his tower. The lightning grids were already reactivating and springing to life. Shadow ran fast, probably the fastest she had run in her entire life.
Tumbling out she fell on the ground clumsily. The doors of the Acid Works slammed shut angrily. Shadow stood up shakily, her heart was pounding and her breathing was shallow. The adrenaline pulsed through her veins so hard it actually hurt. The fright had made her paler than usual. She swept her messy hair off her face.
She noticed the unwanted eyes of the public watching her. Shadow left the Town Square hastily and wandered in the graveyard. She was too busy looking over her shoulder to notice the scene before her. Panic struck her mind as she tripped over something.
Shadow growled to herself as she got to her knees "A headstone? How the hell did I miss that?"

Laura, eyes trained on the ground, followed. She didn't mind going slowly. Slow was nice. She hadn't had slow for a few hours...or however long had passed since...she stopped her thoughts. In her personal opinion, everything had been going much, much too fast. Sure, she was scared of going back in town, but...she'd have to get used to it sometime, right? There were scars where her injuries had been. The ones she had caused herself with the tiny knife she'd found healed smoothly. Other tiny ones, where the wire that had tied her wrists had cut into her skin, weren't healing as well. The two stab wounds, and more noticably, the thick deep cut where the wire had sliced viciously into her flesh were healing like in the human world, big and covered in scar tissue. It was like she had permanent bracelets. Ali couldn't take it anymore though. She didn't have enough strength to keep going to find blood. She was fairly new, so she wasn't as able to resist blood or go without it for this long as she would have been had she had more practice. She collapsed and stayed where she was, not far from Twilight. Thirsty...so thirsty... Twilight tackled Lock and barreled him over, just to block his attack on Belatrix. "Leave her alone, she hasn't done anything!" the black cat defended in her quietly kind yet somehow stern voice. She looked at Belatrix. "Hello, are you new?" the she-cat asked.
