Trick or Treat

_____________________________________________________________
 

"I can't believe I let you talk me into this."

"I don't remember talking being a part of this. Screams, moans, and begs for mercy, maybe, but never talking."

"You cheated."

"And you didn't?"

"I didn't cheat."

"Hmmm ... true ... I was wondering why it was so easy ... "

"How the mighty have fallen, the Angel of Heaven, the great Xellos Metallium, stooping to cheating."

"Says the Angel of Hell."

"I'm supposed to cheat."

"Maybe, but you never do, Master Sulker."

"I could hit you with this tray ... "

"Please?"

"How did you ever get the job, anyway?"

"Angel of Hell was taken."

" ... "

"Right. Now, Zelgadis, just go over there and ring the doorbell."

"Why?"

"That's what you do."

"So?"

"Just go do it."

" ... "

"Well?"

"I don't have to listen to you."

"I won, so yes you do."

"Cheating doesn't count unless I do the cheating."

"Spoken like a true spirit of darkness."

"Shut up."

"Only after you ring the doorbell."

"BUT I DON'T WANT ANYONE TO SEE ME LIKE THIS!"

"Why not? I think you look absolutely ... delicious ... yes, I think that's the appropriate adjective."

"Pervert."

"Yes, yes."

"I'm not ringing the doorbell."

"Sure you're not."

"What was that?"

"I'm just betting that you can't ring the doorbell 'cause you don't have the guts."

"Trickery won't work."

"You sure?"

"Positive."

Later ...

Ring! Ring!

"Trick or Treat!!!!"

"grumble"

"Awwwwwwwwwwwww! HOW CUTE! A playboy bunny and a French maid!! Where ever did you get such adorable costumes?"

"Oh ... they were just ... lying around ... "

"grumble Liar."

Kick!

"Ouch ... "

"Well, nevermind. Here's your candy! Have fun!"

"Thank you!"

"grumble"

"Playboy bunnies don't look so sulky."

"Don't they?"

"Well, in your case ... "

"Shut up."

Pause.

"What did you get?"

"Snickers."

"Three Musketeers."

"Want my Smartees?"

"If I can get that Tootsie Pop."

"Here."

Pause.

"I'm going to get you for this."

"You say that every Halloween."
