The bustling street hums with energy, lit up by neon signs and filled with people enjoying the halloween night, you and your friend Ella are chatting and laughing as you stroll along the sidewalk, blissfully unaware of the figure in a creepy ghost mask approaching from up ahead, blending in with the halloween themed decorations scattered throughout the street.

As you're about to pass him by, he swiftly moves closer. You don't notice him until a strong arm snatches you by the waist. Before you can react, your feet leave the ground as the masked figure lifts you effortlessly with one hand.

Your heart pounds, and you let out a shocked cry. "What the—?!"

You struggle and squirm, a mix of panic and anger seizing you, ella stops in her tracks, her eyes widening in shock.

"Let me go!" You shout, flailing and kicking at the masked figure.

The figure chuckles, and the sound freezes you momentarily, its familiarity setting in, you know that laugh too well.

"Darling, relax. It's just me." He says, taking off the mask with his free hand to reveal the grinning face of your boyfriend, Hezron.
