its october 31rst in ooo, and you had told everyone about the wonders of halloween the other day.
 
everyone seemed to like the idea of getting something by walking from door to door.... but you kind of had to leave out that that stuff was supposed to be candy.... cuz... you know, the candy people are made out of candy.
 
so instead, they are making pastries.
 
jake: i still dont understand why we need to go out to get pastries... we got my doughnut glove back at the house.
 
finn: yah, but what about cupcakes... and normal cakes.
 
>normal cakes are too big for buckets finn.
 
finn: thats why i brought dis cake bag yo.
 
you look at the cake bag.... it was a pillow case.
 
>i hope they wrap these things in something... maybe i should have told them to make things out of bacon... in fact... lets do THAT next year.
 
yeah, pastries can go fuck themselfs, bacon is where it is at.
 
>so what are you two going as?
 
finn: im going as billy.
 
jake: im going as woof-bark-yap. the superhero of the canine kind.
 
jake was dressed up in a mask and cape, and had the letters W, B, and Y on his chest.
 
jake: what are you going as?
 
>just a scary scarecrow. thats why i got mah face all done up special.
 
the facepaint makes it look like you have your mouth slit from side to side, but stiched up. you got a hat on that you think a scarecrow would wear, some baggy pants, loose fitting shirt, jacket to match the shirt, and a sythe just to make things special.
 
finn: your not scary though.
 
>thats because i dont wanna scare you.
 
jake: or that you cant scare us.
 
you stop.
 
>what did you say?
 
jake: that you cant scare us looking like that. i mean, the face paint is cool and all, but the get up.... okay, the get up is pretty cool too because of the holes in the clothes... but the whole being a scarecrow thing is just.... silly.
 
finn: yeah... go ahead and scare us if you think youre so scary.
 
>.... your wish... be granted...
 
you start to bend yourself over backwards untill your left hand touches the ground. audible pops and cracks can be heard coming from your back.
 
>*sharp and long inhaling*
 
you crack your neck alot and walk towards them as you are now, using the sythe as a 3rd leg.
 
jake: um... anon... you can stop now.
 
fin: yeah... you got us.
 
suddenly, you charge them at full speed as you are.
 
finn and jake: AAAAGH!!!
 
you fall down.
 
>hahahaha... dweebs. i cant believe that something reinacted from "the grudge" would make you loose your stuff.
 
finn and jake calm themselfs.
 
you get up and pat the dirt off yourself.
 
finn: woah... wait... reinacted?
 
>yeah, from a movie. it was supposed to be a horror film, but it was just plain ol funny to me.
 
then again... most horror films of your generation was funny to you, specially paranormal activity.
 
>so... we heading out?
 
jake: yeah... just... dont do that again... kinda reminded me of some biz and junk we were told not to talk abou-
 
fin punches jake in his arm.
 
>secrets being kept from me?
 
finn: sorry dude... its for your own good.
 
>i can respect that. if it is for my benifit, i wont bother about it.
 
finn: wow... really?
 
>yeah. who presures someone into doing stuff like that when its something that is best kept secret?
 
plus, the last time you did that to someone... it really was bad that you found out. never again.
 
anyway... back on track.
 
you, finn, and jake head over to the candy kingdom first.
 
>i wonder if the candy people are letting their children do the same thing.
 
jake: but they live so close to each other.
 
>thats good... that means they live in a trustful neiborhood.
 
finn: yeah, but then theres a bad part of the candy kingdom.
 
>you mean that place with the sketchy people?
 
finn: yeah, one time me and jake-
 
>im sorry to interupt, but the people there arnt actually bad.
 
jake: what? pffff.
 
>i swear. i went over there thinking the same thing as you guys. i got called names because i was all clean and jazz.... but then i thought for a second... what if this is supposed to be some kind of new clique? so i dirtied myself up, possed a new persona... BAM. everyone acts like a bro.
 
finn: you know... something like that happened to us too.... in a way. but wait, some guy stole some other guy's diamonds
 
>you mean the small ice cream guy, the gingerbread man, and the gummy worm?
 
jake: yeah. they called em apples.
 
>haha... i helped them out with that jazz.
 
finn: WHAT?!
 
>hold up finn. they werent bad either. their stuff got stolen, so they stole from the guys that stole from them. i think thats pretty even.
 
finn: but you STOLE.
 
>i like to think of it as equivilant exchange.
 
jake: oh... giving something, and then getting something that is of equal value.
 
>yep.
 
finn: *grumble*still stole*grumble*
 
>hahah...
 
ah, your finally here.
 
you see that the candy kingdom has decorated the place up pretty dang good. you got your fake spider webs, your fake tombstones, and your fake skeletons. ah halloween.
 
starchy: BOO!
 
>ah man... youre adorable.
 
starchy: starchy went as a devil.
 
jake: yo give us some yummy stuff.
 
starchy: alright alright. you guys are lucky... i made some apple fritters.
 
starchy is lucky as hell he didnt make any apple pie. tree trucks would have his... well... you dont know what the equivilant of his head is, but it would be that.
 
he puts a wrapped pastry into each of your containers.
 
>glad you got the right idea to wrap them. did everyone else do it too?
 
starchy: princess made sure we had enough to fit all that we baked.
 
nice. score one for bonny.
 
you and the gang set out even further into the kingdom and see some really cute shit.
 
kids are dressed up as the cutest monsters, and the adults are dressed up as... well cute monsters.
 
all exept for doctor ice cream and nurse pound cake.
 
they are dressed up as.... *sigh*... "sexy mummies".
 
how do they even think mummies can be sexy?
 
mummy, and sexy do not belong in the same sentence.
 
you get your pastries and go to the next place and do the same there.
 
finn: man, my bag is never gonna get full if they keep handing out small junk.
 
jake: we just havent found a house thatll give out the good stuff.
 
>guys... we dont even know what the good stuff is. for all we know, some of this might be considered the good stuff.
 
finn: no man... good means big, and all we gots is the tiny baby stuff..
 
>picky picky finn.
 
you continue on your venture for the goods as you finally see the castle coming up.
 
banana guard. banana guard everywhere.... with costumes.
 
guard: hold out your containment units and we shall produce the pastries.
 
finn: sweet, i bet you that peebles is handing out the good stuff.
 
the guard puts a whole freaking cake in finns gag. you can hear an audible squish of it landing on the other stuff. even if it is all wrapped up, it still crushes the things.
 
man, we didnt think this through.
 
they do it again for jake.
 
guard: hold the bucket up please.
 
>uh... no thanks... save that for yourselfs.
 
guard: oh man.. really? HAY GUYS! FREE CAKE FOR LATER!
 
other guards: WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO!!!
 
>so where is the princess? i would have thought she would be out and about making sure everyone was happy.
 
bubblegum: you guessed right!
 
you turn around to find princess bubblegum dressed up as a witch.
 
>nice.
 
bubblegum: thanks... i used this the last time we had to scare some people away.
 
>um..... scary.
 
bubblegum: i know right?!
 
im glad that no one is actually trying to scare anyone here. i mean... yeah... they are doing it in a mcok sence. but if someone tried to scare a candy person, apparently they would explode. thats not cool.
 
bubblegum: where are you guys heading off to next?
 
jake: hotdog kingdom.
 
finn; ew... i bet you that they only made stuff out of meat.
 
>but finn... that might mean they have bacon... oh god we HAVE to go there now.
 
you are drolling just thinking about it.
 
aw yeah bacon... how about you come over to my place and we can-
 
bubblegum: mind if i join in? it seems as though everything is running smoothly here, and peppermint buttler says he can handle the rest.
 
jake: i aint got no complaints. look at dis thang.
 
jake points to his bag which was now filled with the cake that was dropped in. he swirls it around and makes it do squishy noises.
 
jake: and i bet its moist.
 
bubblegum: home made too.
 
>all of em?
 
bubblegum: every single one, from a molecular level!
 
you shouldnt even have asked.
 
you and the gang (now including bonny) head off to the next stop.
 
>yo bonny... how are you gonna get back? we are gonna be walking pretty far.
 
bubblegum: i can walk just fine.
 
>all the way back? uh-uh. i aint letting that happen. guess who just got a piggy back home.
 
bonny giggles and blushes.
 
jake: yo, we here yall.
 
finn: give us yo bacon!
 
hotdog princess: oh my... this is so much fun. of caurse. here you go finn, jake, bubblegum, anoooon.~
 
ugh... i think hotdog princess has a crush on me.
 
dont think about it anon... just think about the awesome bacon... just think about how good its gonna be all up in your mouth.
 
aw yeah.... cmere bacon... gimme dat good lovin that shouldnt be done in public.
 
jake: next place.
 
.... we will continue this later bacon... i promise.
 
bubblegum: so is this what is normally done on halloween? it felt like you were leaving out some things.
 
>well... it was supposed to be candy, but since your whole kingdom is made out of-
 
bubblegum: oh my gosh... anon, we dont care if we give away NORMAL candy. its the candy people that need to be protected. gees your silly.
 
>man... so this whole time... oh well, that just means that it can be a different thing that everyone can hand out every year.
 
jake: i think it should be ice cream next year.
 
>how would that even work jake?
 
jake: you know... just like... hand out pints of ice cream.
 
>well... i mean... i guess... but then that would mean that everyone would have to make a whole bunch of ice cream.
 
jake; they had it coming if they aint trick-or-treating.
 
finn: hay... wait a minute... why is it called trick-or-treating anyway?
 
>thats another thing i left out. if the people hold out on you and dont give you the candy because they are being dinguses, you get to trick them.
 
bubblegum: oh my, so if they run out of it they get pranked?
 
>nonononono... thats completley different. i mean if the guy practically says "no... no candy for you."
 
jake: oh... sweet, so if we ask the ice king we can-
 
>we arent asking the ice king.
 
jake: well... why not? thats like a free trick right there.
 
well... first off... you and the ice king a turbros (bros that are turbo). second, dude has a rough past.
 
>because.
 
jake: no man.. dont be doing what parents do man. because aint no answer man! why?
 
>because jake.
 
jake: nooooooooooooo!
 
finn: hahahah.
 
bubblegum: where to now?
 
finn: next up on dah list is muscle kingdom.
 
bubblegum: oh.. i dont really have good standing there.
 
>why?
 
bubblegum: well i-
 
jake: BECAUSE!
 
>jake, shhh.
 
jake: make me.
 
>mister, do not make me turn this walk around.
 
jake: you dont have the guts...
 
you take your foot and turn the other way.
 
jake: OKAY OKAY!!! glob... your a maniac anon. i was just kidding. no need to compromise halloween.
 
>thats what i thought. continue bonny.
 
bubblegum: well, like i was saying... i dont have a good standing there because i didnt give muscle princess a present for her birthday last year.
 
>and you think she wont act like an adult? did you give her an appology?
 
bubblegum: yeah... and she said she would turn me into a pretzil if i came back there.
 
>she tries to do that... ill have a strong word with her.
 
you dont want to punch a lady... no matter how ugly they look. momma didnt raise you to act like that. mmm-mmm no how.
 
finn: dude... she talks with her fists.
 
>a very STRONG word.
 
so you make your way to the muscle kingdom.
 
god damn people made some fucking pastries here.
 
like... they made a bathtub full of pastries.
 
some dude with muscles: the baking adds to the things that make me more muscular!!! grrrr!
 
you didnt want anything that they were selling. what if they put in some type of steroid? you are already super strong here anyway.
 
well your not actually super strong... you are just... well you are used to heavier gravity.
 
muscle princess: bubblegum.... what did i tell you? now i have to-
 
>do absolutly nothing... or else.
 
muscle princess: hmph... whatever... your not even worth it.
 
mmm-hmmm... go back in your cave ugly.
 
once out of there, you head off from kingdom to kingdom.
 
>finn, how are you gonna fit any more in there?
 
finn: i cant.
 
>well.. i guess that means your do-
 
finn: thats why i brought... a second bag!
 
finn flaps out another pillow case from no where.
 
jake: good thinking finn. im just gonna put all the other stuff in my stretcho-bag.
 
jake makes a bag shaped slot in his hand.
 
bubblegum: im just here for the company.
 
>dont worry... i dont get the big stuff either.
 
you both wink at each other.
 
finn: next off-
 
monster: RAAAAAAAAAWR
 
jake, finn, and bubblegum: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!
 
>hay marce.
 
the monster shapeshifts into marceline who is wearing a.... oh... so thats how you make a mummy look sexy.... well then...
 
marceline: hahahaha.... how did you know it was me?
 
>who else would want to try to scare us on halloween.?
 
marceline: haha... good point. what do you guys got so far? i just got finnished handing out my stuff to the little ones.
 
finn: you handed out stuff?
 
jake: yeah, thats unlike you marceline.
 
marceline: excuse me? ill have you know im awesome with kids.
 
bubblegum: yeah, you did have that babysitting thing going for you back then.
 
marceline: ugh... i never got payed as much as i should have though. anyway... where yall heading off to? can i join?
 
finn: we were going to head off to breakfast kingdom next
 
oh snap... you might be able to get more bacon.
-------------------------------
 
okay... so you are basically over loaded with pastries. especially jake. you have all decided to camp out for awhile.
 
bubblegum: it sure is getting late... anon do you think that-
 
marceline: oh come on bonnibel, its only 11 pm. live a little.
 
finn: yeah, sometimes me and jake stay up till 1... or even 2. we havent made it past the 3 point though.
 
jake: some day we will.... some day.
 
>i dont want to force you to stay up bonny. if you wanna go home then i can-
 
bubblegum: no no... i think i could do good with a few more hours.
 
>you sure? i know you arent a morning person.
 
hell... YOU werent a morning person.
 
marceline: bawk bawk.
 
bubblegum: im sure of it.
 
jake: oh man... we are loaded up on pastries... we got a fire going... we are surounded by friends... what else can we do anon?
 
eat some god damn bacon.
 
>we can tell scary stories.
 
finn: OH OH! me first!
 
jake: this aughta be good.
 
finn: on a stormy night-
 
marceline: heard it!
 
finn: deep in a cave-
 
jake: bro... we heard that one last night from that one dude at that place with the thing.
 
finn: okay then... how about... five thousand years ago there lived-
 
bubblegum: oh, my grandfather told me about this one.
 
finn: UGH!!!
 
>its okay finn. some people just know some stories.
 
finn:... hey wait... anon, you come from an alternate universe, maybe you know a story we dont know about!
 
marceline: that actually sounds pretty exciting.
 
bubblegum: i would be most pleased to hear a story from your world.
 
jake: whoo whoo!
 
well dang. they want a story... hmmm... lets think deep down into the creepy pasta bank.
 
we got slenderman... no, its overused.
 
we got jeff the killer... no, too lame.
 
we got that story about the cursed majoras mask game... but they wouldnt understand it.
 
well i could tell them about... slenderman... s;lenderman what are yu doing... slenderman.. STAHP!
 
>how about i tell you guys about the story of slenderman?
 
god damnit.
 
finn: slender what?
 
>the slenderman. you not knowing who this is proves to me that this might just be the right story to tell.
 
marceline: alright. im pumped. get the story going. imma steal a peice of your bacon.
 
>hay!
 
marceline looks at you with pleading eyes.
 
>.... give the other half to me.
 
she smiles and tears you off half of it and you both chow down.
 
aw yah gurl! taste so good around mah tongue gurl!
 
>...*gulp*... *sigh*, okay, you guys ready?
 
bubblegum: commence the story anon.
 
>okay. back where i come from, there are stories all over the world about a certain thing that happens, and is cought on either video or picture. there are multible people that have experianced it and have told their story... and then there are those that have not yet been found.
 
finn scoots up closer and puts his chin on his hands.
 
>one thing that the stories all have in commen, is that the person is being chaced or followed by a thing that can be described as a very tall and... slender man.
 
marceline: kpphhffff...
 
>it wears a black suit, which some say to be his skin. he can morph his body into anything he wills it to be. he can sprout tenticles from anywhere on his body to get what he needs... but the thing about this creature that makes it so scary is that... it has no face.
 
bubblegum is now scooting closer to you.
 
>it was once told by a soldier that during the war, in his camp, he was keeping watch for enemies in the forest. well... what would you know, but the enemy of his country shows out of the woods screaming in his native language and running frantically. at first the soldier was going to shoot, but the man being unarmed must have made him double take for a split second. finally, the enemy showed up right in front of him. the soldier knocked him down and asked him "sir, are you surendering?" to which the enemy says "the woods! its in the woods! i couldnt harm it!"
 
jake is chowing down on the cake that was in his bag.
 
>the soldier looks puzzled at first, looking towards the woods. he says to the enemy "your not making any sence. whats in the woods? why are you here?" to which the enemy replied "he just blends into the trees! he snatched us up with the limbs he makes!"
 
marcelines smile slowly started to drop as she listened in on the story.
 
>the soldier started to get angry. why was this man not making any sence? he looked back to the trees to see if the man was telling the truth, but he could see nothing there, nothing was moving. "you have to speak clearly and tell the truth sir! what happened? why are you here?" to which the enemy looked out to the woods from where he came, and then looked back and said " we... we were camping in the woods. i was on guard duty to make sure none of you would come to our camp. as the night went on, i started to hear branches moving... i thought nothing of it at first... but when i actually started to look close... i could see it. it... it had no face, and yet it stared back at me. i fired all of my bulets at it, yet it did nothing. i called for back up, they did the same, and the same outcome happened... but this time we angered it..."
 
alright, the good parts coming up now.
 
>"it snatched us up one by one... i ran through the woods in fear for my life." said the enemy. the soldier looked at him and could tell that there was fear in his eyes, and that was all the truth he needed. he looked out at the trees one last time. he thought back to everything that the man said. he said that he had no face, that he could blend into the trees, and that he heard some branches move... he heard a branch move.
 
*crrrraaaaack*
 
bubblegum: EH!
 
as bubblegum looks towards the woods to see if anything was there, she slowly turns back to you.
 
marceline;... then what?
 
>he bugged out... looking for where it came from. he looked from side to side, and then finally... bottom to up.... he saw something... a tall something. it was taller than the trees themself. it had tenticals sprouting out all over its back, and most of all... it had no face. it was so far away from them, yet the soldier was scared out of his mind. from what the man told him, he was practically invincible. he thought that there was nothing he was going to be able to do. slowly... and slowly ever more... the thing krept forward on its long. slender. legs.
 
jake is actually starting to shake now.
 
>"STAY AWAY!" the soldier said. he pointed his gun at it, but then remembered that bullets would do nothing. more and more the thing kept coming. the enemy made a blessing apon himself and his family over and over as it came nearer. both the soldier and the enemy were trapped there with nothing to do but wait for whatever was going to happen. finally the thing stood before them like a skyscraper. it reached down with one of its mighty tenticles and grabbed the enemy. "OH GOD PLEASE HELP ME!!!" the soldier could do nothing but look as this massive being took the man and headed back to the woods. the soldier had to go to his camp and tell everyone.
 
finn: w-what happened next?
 
>the soldier... he told the others in his group what had just happened. thinking that he was delierious from staying up so late, they teased him and prodded him with jokes. the man got furius saying it was NOT a simple story. he wanted to prove it to them. the soldier got two people from his group to go with him into the woods. he did not know what he was going to do, but he knew that he was going to prove himself. as the men walk through the forest looking for some kind of proof that the thing did in fact exist, the soldier once again called back what the man had told him. it was tall.... it could blend into the trees... and when it came out, the branches would move. just as he thought about it, a branch cracked.
 
*crrrrack*
 
marceline: AGH!
 
marceline huddles close to bubblegum.
 
marceline: my... my back... i pinched a nerve... heheh... cuz i never usually sit down... heh...
 
oh this is getting good.
 
>he looked up and around in a frenzy, looking for it. he could find nothing... not even a glimps at a pale, faceless figure. but the more he started to look around, the more that the man began to notice that the trees looked really wierd. "guys... look up... whats going on with the trees... why do they look like that?' he asked. they all looked up and tried really hard to focus about what made the trees look so wierd. "wait.. anyone got a flashlight on em?" the soldier asked. one of the men in his group tossed him their flashlight and the soldier shined it up in the air, they didnt find the thing that they were looking for... but they did find out why the trees looked so weird...
 
you lean in close to all of them.
 
>there were bodies in the trees...
 
jake: AAAAAAAAAAAH!!!
 
>the men paniced, they scrambled about trying to remember where exactly they came from. more and more the trees started to feel like they were tricking the men. the men all went in one direction in hopes that they were going the right way. crack!
 
*crack*
 
finn: AH!
 
>the men looked up one more time, it was the thing. it was walking much faster than it did awhile ago. it lowered its torso only once or twice to swipe at the men below. the men began to scatter, leaving each other behind. the soldier looked back to see his men being snatched up by the thing, and dissapear. again, it snatched and then dissapeared. the soldier ran and ran till he saw light. he thought it was his own base, but it turned out it was another base of the enemy that he was in war with. "halt!" said one of the men at the base. the man did nothing of the sort and kept running and screaming. he fell down in front of the enemy and grabbed at his feet. startled, the enemy did nothing. "he just blends into the trees! he snatched us up with the limbs he makes!" said the soldier. the enemy tried to make sence of what the soldier said, but could do nothing of the sort. "blends in with the trees?" asked the enemy as he looked towards the forest..... crack.
 
*crrrack*
 
everyone: AAAAAAAH!!!
 
they all hudle together and look at the trees searching everywhere for something that resembled slenderman.
 
you hold up a stick in front of them.
 
*crrrack*
 
>you guys are so easy to scare if that gets to you.
 
finn:... oh man anon... if thats the kind of stories you have in your world, im afraid to know what kind of movies you had.
 
jake: man... i ate through my whole bag i was so goobed up in the story.
 
>sorry jake.
 
jake:.... at least i still got some in my stretcho-bag.... wait... no... i ate all of that too.
 
bubblegum: i wsh to be taken home now.
 
marceline: yeah, i... i gotta go practice for a party im going to in... whenever.
 
was it really that scary for them. gees... you guess youre lucky to didnt tell them about the other stories on the slenderman.
--------------------------------------
 
bubblegum: hay... i had a nice night anon.
 
>good. glad i could help with that.
 
bubblegum: i think that if you told that story around my candy people, they would have exploded.
 
>yeah... good thing you didnt.
 
bubblegum: im the only one that cant, but during that whole thing i was wishing i could have.
 
>hahah... im sorry bonny. i guess i got a little too into the halloween spirit.
 
you finally reach bubblegums castle and jump to the top of the tower and lead her in through her window.
 
bubblegum: its pretty late anon... you wanna stay over at... my castle for tonight?
 
>*yawn* ... nah... i think i can make it to my house, besides, i still need to get out of these clothes.
 
bubblegum: oh.. yeah... i do as well.
 
>you have a nice night princess... oh and... the slenderman isnt real... back in my world, we have pretty much made a joke of him already. if you think the slenderman is scary, just think about him going to a school prom and not being able to dance with anyone because he has seriously bad acny.
 
bubblegum: *giggle*... i shall remember that.... goodnight anonymous.
 
>goodnight bonny.
------------------------
 
you finally get out of your costume, wash your face off, and get into some awesome ass night clothes.
 
you look outside your window to the woods.
 
just think... waht if the slenderman was real and was watching you the whole time you did that story?
 
well.... that would be one tough enemy to fight against.
 
...
 
nah....
 
you could beat his ass.
