In science classroom

(Y/n)'s P.O.V.

"On All Hallow's Eve, prepare to be scared witless... At the Whoopee World Halloween Fright-tacular! One fright only." The voice over of the Whoopee world, Halloween addition said from Howard's phone. Randy said; "So, Boo-ce. Do you get it? Boo-ce!"

"Got it the first time. Still Stupid." Howard said. I said; "Well I didn't understand a word you guys said. And what is this Halloween everyone keeps talking about?"

"Have you've always lived under a rock?" Randy said. I just kept looking at them. Howard said; "You really don't know? It's one of the brucest holidays to exist. Dressing up and wearing costumes, scaring others, going to fright festivals and the best part is Free Candy!"

I didn't get it. Ms. Driscoll enters the classroom, carrying a big box with things. Mr. Driscoll saying; "Morning, class. Morning, Gerry."

"Why are those lips talkin' instead of kissin'?" Gerry said. They both air quote 'kiss each other.' The guys and I give each other a look at each other with the awkwardness. Mrs. Driscoll said; "With Halloween a week away, I thought we'd celebrate by growing our very own Vitis Odor Mortis."

"The Smell of Death Vines." Gerry said. Ms. Driscoll said to me; "Since your partner is sick, you will work on your own."

She placed the plant on my table. As she walks away, I smell the plant. Jeesh. Howard said; "Smells like old man breath."

"It smells like tartar sauce." I said. Randy said; "I was gonna go with meat farts."

"Follow these directions exactly." Mrs. Driscoll said as she went to her desk. Gerry said; "Or your plant will look like me."

"Two cups of water per day. One scoop of plant food every hour. Alternate sunlight and shade. This is simple enough." I said as I read out loud. I heard the guys reading. Randy said; "No, this is way too complicated. It's a plant."

"I know. Let's just put all the water and plant food in now." Howard said. Randy said; "Howard, we just outsmarted nature."

If only Mother Nature was here. She would punch them in the face.

The next week, Halloween

"Aw, my little Petunia. Look at how you've grown. You're leaves are looking greener than before." I said to my plant as I was walking to the classroom. I enter the classroom as I saw red rays coming out of the Ninja's hand. Wait, why is he the Ninja now? I protect my Petunia and shouted; "What is going on?!"

As the rays stopped coming out of his hands and he falls down, I ran next to the Ninja, holding onto my plant. I went next to the dizzy Ninja to help him up as I said; "Are you alright?"

Howard, dressed as Viceroy and I help him up, one arm each. As we walk next to their desk, Howard said; "It'll be worth it when we're at Whoopee World, and - Oh, come on!"
