[You know, Maka just wanted a nice and quiet Halloween, spending time inside with the boyfriend, have a fire, read some books--stuff like that. She didn't even mind the weird little ghosts moving in under her porch, hell she'd be perfectly happy to let them stay there.

It's these guys randomly appearing all over the region and now here that are really spoiling her pumpkins.

Kali, her Houndoom, and Bones, her Marowak, are flanking either side of her as she marches straight on towards the grunts--intending to cut a path directly through them. This doesn't stop them from commenting, sending their Pokemon after (fended off by Kali and Bones of course), or being annoying.]

["Yoooo--whatchu thinkin' comin' up here, cuz?"

"Ho, is dat a Marowak? I ain't never one like dat before!"

"'ey, sis, you got some cute pins there."]

[Meaning the skull pins in her hair--the one Halloween thing she decided to wear that day. Dressing up after the...incident of last year isn't really on her mind.]

I'm going to punch your leader in the face. Get out of the way and I won't start with you.

[They're not taking her seriously. One of the conveniently color coded male grunts swaggers on over to her, hands on hips, laughing.

"You gonna take on alla us, sis?"]

Yeah.

[He leans down to her level, gesturing at his face. "Ain't that cute, why don'tcha get a free shot in on me?" None of the grunts are taking her threat seriously.]

[CRUNCH! goes Maka's fist right into the grunt's nose, throwing him back at his fellows. That certainly changes their tune, even behind their bandanas the grunts look...shellshocked.]

Like I said, I'm going for your leader, so please get out of my way or you're going home on a stretcher.
