Blackmarket Schemes

"Jackie this is like the 15th house tonight, can't we just go? Look everyone else is leaving and they'll all be home soon!"

"One more house, let's make it an even 16 and we can both go home for the night."

"Fine but this is the last one..."

"You should be happier, I mean we did beat our record from last year."

"Yeah yeah, let's celebrate when we get home my arms are tired."

*Knock, Knock, Knock*

"Trick-or-treat"

"Happy Halloween, you got a killer costume but uh, Aren't you a little old for this sort of thing?"

"I'm 19"

"Exactly my point young lady, wouldn't you rather be out partying with your friends. I mean look all the lights are out and I was just about to turn mine off too."

"Don't worry we'll turn the lights out for you..."

"We?"

"Yeah we."

As those last few words left her lips she gestured to the figure standing behind the man and before he even had a chance to react a knife was being plunged into his back. Jackie quickly walked forward pushing him aside as she entered the house an closed the door behind her, looking at the man bleeding out on the floor with a somber expression and gently taking the knife out of her brothers hand. she flipped him over onto his back and put her foot on his neck almost crushing his windpipe a small smile crossing her face as he struggled under her weight.

"I may not like going to loud party's with the rest of my nicotine addicted generation but you were right about one thing, I have a killer costume indeed."

After everything was said and done she flipped off the porch light switch and the left out the backdoor skipping into the woods directly behind the mans house a bag full of candy in her hand and a bloody sack filled with eyes in her brothers. Quickly they left the neighborhood as screams of terror started to fill the dark void trampling over a newspaper with the heading : "BEWARE OF THE TWIN EYE THEIVES, YOU WON'T SEE THEM COMING!"

Another successful Halloween.
