A Haunted Masquerade: Halloween dance for KHP

"Hey Lily what's up with you? Is there a problem with your mum? "Come on let's go to the ballroom and let's talk there." Regie went to the ballroom, hoping the two would follow. "Let's stick together, this mansion is kinda creepy, it gives me nerves." He turned back and smiled, "Let's go!"

 

To shy to say anything, Toraa just followed Ed and Lilly out the door. As he walked behind them he thought to himself 'people are trying to talk to me i feel a lot better but i have to say something.

 

Toraa followed them all not saying anything just following but he knew he would have to speak to the others soon. So, as they walked Toraa opened his mouth but nothing came out. He wandered why nothing came he. He was trying to talk but it seemed like something was holding his vocal chords so nothing would escape his mouth.

 

"hmmm? Oh yeah...lets go..." She was walking toward the ballroom when she turned back and soon she realised there was another person among them. It was the guy from the ballroom. "Oh hey there! sorry about ignoring you like that! I'm Lily!" she smiled and she stretched out her hand. "Wait...your not a...ghost are you?" she said sarcastically.

 

"Of course not!" Toraa replied in a mummbly voice. Then he reached out his hand. As soon as his hand touched her's, he began to smile. He felt the warmth of actually having a friend run all over his body. First it went up his arm and down his back. Then he let go of her hand and turned to Ed. "Sorry I didn't speak earlier when you spoke to me. I am kinda shy, you know I don't have many friends. By the way, I am Toraa. Nice to meet you." Toraa said reaching out his hand towards Ed in hopes that he still wanted to be freinds.

 

"Wait Lily!? What do you mean by ghosts? Are there ghosts in this mansion??"
He then looked around and stared at Toora. "Hey Toraa, I'm Regie! Glad to meet you, you don't to be shy at all." He then hugged him.

 

Astonished by the sudden impact by Reggie's hug, Toraa began to smile a little. He felt very comforted by the warmth of his new friends he now had. He now couldn't wait to meet the others. Now, still being hugged by Reggie, Toraa lightly placed his hands around Reggie returning the hug. This was turning out to be the best night in Torra's life and he couldn't wait to see what happened next.

 

"Hahaaa...well its nice to meet you Toraa" Lily grinned at Regie laughed loudly. "Course there isn't Regie....or is there?" she asked looking curiously at Ed. "So...i think we should stick together and wait in the ballroom..agreed?" She asked while smiling at all of them. 'This just turned slightly less boring' she thought to herself.

 

"I agree," said Toraa. He then turned to one of the mirrors to check how his costume looked, since he never got to do it at home. He thought to himself, 'I look amazing!' Then he saw something run across the ballroom doorway in the mirror. He snapped his head back towards the door way, but this time he saw nothing. He then thought to himself, 'Maybe there are ghosts in here. That would be awsome.'

 

Kyuu smiled at Will. "Thanks Will, so do you", she said then. She looked out the window as they drove towards the mansion. "Creepy.. yeah." she mumbled.

Soon they were at the mansion. Kyuu stepped out and looked at the mansion's facade. "Wow.. I wonder if everyone's here already.."

 

Ed was being more quiet then usual. He was starting to get chills in this place.

Before he knew it, Toraa had introduced himself and they were returning inside.

"Uh, sorry I blanked out like that," He offered Toraa his hand. "I'm Ed."

 

"Hi Ed you already know I am Toraa!" Toraa grabbed Ed's hand and shook it breifly.

 

Lily grinned, she liked bieng in the ballroom. She just felt more comfortable there. She twirled around and in each mirror she could see her reflection, along with Ed's..Regie and Toraa's reflection. They all stood seperately in silence following her gaze around the room. She looked stop swirling at broke the silence for them. "So any ideas on what we can do while we wait?" They remained silent, she looked them all in the eye. "Well?"

 

"I know, what about let's play horse but with dance moves?" Toraa said in excitement in hoping to show off his dance moves that no one knows he has.

 

Lily raised both her eyebrows while she watched Toraa's talented dancing she couldnt help but smile and laugh. Her heard her laugh echo throughout the huge mansion. "Nice moves Toraa! Okay cool... so thats idea number one. Idea number two?"

 

"I guess that was too much for you," Toraa said in a giggly way. "Uhm,let's see. I don't know. My mind is totally blank," Toraa replied. He turned to the other guys, "Any of you got any ideas?" He asked them.

 

Ed put his fingers on his chin, pretending to think dramatically.

"Okay, how about--" He was cut off by a sudden burst of music, seeminly coming from nowhere.

It was a classical piece, one that Ed didn't know. There were no performers, no dancers other than them. Of course, the thought too soon.

The door to the ballroom burst open, and a strange couple walked in. The man was wearing a tux, with a black and white mask that convered his eyes, and went down at the sides to cover his cheeks, his nose and mouth remaining uncovered. The woman was wearing a sleek black silk dress that fit to her curves perfectly. It was strapless, and wet up to the middle of her chest. Her mask was black and white as well, but it covered only her eyes and forhead, with a large black feather extending from the right side.

Both had jet black hair, his was a typical man's. Hers fell down to the center of her back.

"Why hello," The man said to Ed. "Are you all here for the masquerade as well?"

 

Jordan arrived in front of the mansion and fixed his tux. "Alright K.O.D, let's go," Jordan said talking to himself. He slid his mask on and walked in. He went to the ballroom, searching for company. He saw a few people in there so he decided to join them. "Hello all," Jordan said so he was noticed.

 

Lily heard a new voice among the crowd. She looked behind Ed and saw another newcomer. He was wearing a black and red tux and behind his mask all she could see were two blood-red eyes. 'Typical' she thought. She gulped but stepped forward slowly to introduce herself anyway.
She smiled and waved. "Hey there! I'm Lily!"

 

Jordan saw Lily as the visible part of his mouth smiled. "Hello, I'm Jordan," he said cheerfully. He looked around and noticed that not much was going on. "Is the party over? It seems pretty dead." Jordan spoke with little joy this time.
