It was the day before Halloween, the 3Oth of October, at around 4 P.M. #Peekatchu was inside the bathroom, putting on his costume. "PEEKATCHU COME ON GET OUT I GOTTA GO!" Yelled #Zoaruah as he punded on the door. "Just one, more, second!" Peekatchu pleaded. "What are you even doing in there!?" Zoaruah asked. Just then, the door opens, and Peekatchu emerges in a Ghostbusters suit, "Tada!" Zoaruah is unimpressed, "You kept me waiting for I5 minutes, just to put on a stupid suit!? Couldn't you just do that, oh, I don't know, ANYWHERE ELSE?!" Zaoruah complained. Peekatchu explained, "I wanted to look in the mirror so I could see for myself how my costune looked." Zoaruah rolls his eyes and says, "Yeah, but why the heck did it take I5 minutes to look in the mirror! Are you Victeenie or something and can't get enough of yourself?" Peekatchu shakes his head, "What? No. I ordered a size small by accident, and it was really hard to get it on. Aaaand I MAY have put it on backwards...twice..."

Zoaruah slaps his face and sighs, then says, "Peekatchu, sometimes, you are just SO ridiculous. Can I use the bathroom now?" Peekatchu smiles and responds, "Sure! OH WAIT, Zoaruah, I need to ask you something first!" Zoaruah starts sweating and annoyingly responds, "Ugh fine, but make it quick I really gotta go!" Peekatchu asks, "Are you coming to Snyvee's Costume party tonight?" Zoaruah quietly laughs to himself and smirks, "Oh, I'll be coming all right! Heh heh heh." Peekatchu is excited, "Really? ALL RIGHT! You never usually go places with us, you always say how 'childish' or how 'stupid' it is! Do you want to leave early with me and Chatmandah? We're gonna be the first ones to arrive!" Zoaruah exhales and looks up at the ceiling, "Oh, no, sorry. I have to prepare my costume, it's gonna be really awesome, so, I'll arrive really late. Like, REALLY late." Peekatchu responds, "Oh, ok then, we'll just go ahead without you."

Zoaruah quickly responds, "Yeah, yeah, do that. Speaking of 'Go' though..." Zoaruah quickly squeezes past Peekatchu and pushes him out of the bathroom, "I've gotta go NOW!" Zoaruah closes the door. Peekatchu is silent for a bit, then says, "See you later then!" Peekatchu walks down the hall into the main room. He is about to exit the door when his mother #JuneRaichu, stops him, "Where are you going Peekatchu?" She asks from the kitchen. "I'm going to Snyvee's costume party with my friends!" June tells Peekatchu, "Ok son! Just make sure you're not out too late. And don't walk home alone, make sure you leave with the people you came with!" Peekatchu opens the door and says to her, "Yes Mom, I will!" June smiles, "All right then, have fun my little pumpkin!" Peekatchu blushes and responds, "Good bye mom!" Peekatchu then closes the door.

Peekatchu walks outside and says to himself, "Ok, everyone was supposed to meet at Skwertle's house, I hope they all did."

Just as Peekatchu is about to leave the yard though, a terrible chill goes up his spine. He looks around frantically. He then looks back towards the street, "That was, creepy. It felt like I was...being watched...Oh well!" Peekatchu continues walking. A mysterious Lilligant in a cloak emerges from behind his house. She stares at Peekatchu, and follows him from behind houses, all the way down to Skwertle's house.

Peekatchu arrives at Skwertle's house and knocks on the door. #Skwertle opens it and smiles, "Hey Peekatchu, you made it! And I see you got your Ghostbuster's outfit!" Peekatchu responds, "Yeah, we are still all going as Ghostbusters, right?" Skwertle answers, "Yup! Charmandag is already here, so now we just have to wait for Victeenie to arri-" Just then, #Victeenie walks around the corner, "Hey guys, the Victeenie has arrived!" Skwertle looks at Victeenie and is annoyed, "Victeenie, why is your suit red?" Victeenie explains, "Well, Beige was such a boring color, so I changed it to red! It fits me MUCH better!" Skwertle is angry, "Victeenie, we were supposed to all go in the SAME outfit! You can't just change it!" Victeenie defends himself, "But my image would be on the line! Plus, I need ro stand out from the rest of you!" Skwertke is about to say something, but takes a deep breath and sighs. He turns around and says, "Charmandah, it's time to head out!"

#Charmandag comes running to the door, "Hi Peekatchu! Hi Victeenie! Are we all ready to go?" Peekatchu smiles, "Yup! So come on, let's GO!" They all head out, and walk towards Snyvee's party. Unknowing of the stranger that follows them.

* #Charmandah, not #Charmandag xD Woops!

I wonder how this year's will turn out... Prankster over there looks ready with his drink. I should read it in a sec.

I like the scene on this.

Re: Some artists on Colors use different palettes (ie: brighter colors, darker tones, etc) and I've been watching a few more cartoons lately. Lastly, i built on my last attempt for a different angle. Before I knew it, i made that, but I'm not exactly satisfied with the outcome. I guess it needs work, like with the hands.
:P
I was hoping it needed tweaking.

Re: lol, glad you like the character, feel free to use him in a comic!n(I'll use him in some of my comics, probably)
And your welcome, and you, too!

c:

Re: the Japanese letters are because I recently got a book for learning Japanese, and those would be onamotopoeiea (however you spell it) for certain actions. Example: the ones in the 5th panel is "smiling to imply you know something they don't" and the 6th would be "trembling from momentary fear or shock."

Re:Yeah.Sorry I thought we mentioned it before.
Have a safe and Happy Halloween btw!

happy halloween! :D

Like usual, your writing skills never fail to impress. Nice to see that Halowitzke continues. Don't worry about going into November. At least you made a Haloween pic.
