October, one of most greatest holidays that all of Atmos loves, especially when we get to dress up as what we want to be on Halloween.
Luna: I love Halloween~
Stork: Ah, Halloween the only day we get to dress as terrifying, creepy, crawling creatures of the night... [grin] Oh yes, this will go brilliantly
Aerrow: And we get to host a Halloween party in the Condor
Mags: This will be the best
Junko: So who is everyone going as?
Piper: I'm going as a scientist, a mad scientist
Finn: I'm going as a gladiator, strong and handsome
Mags: Strong meh but handsome... I don't see it
Finn: Hey!!
Aerrow: Well I'm going as a Knight. What about you Mags?
Mags: I'm glad you asked, I'm going as a Plague Doctor
Finn: Huh?
Mags: You'll see
Aerrow: What about you Stork, Junko, Luna?
Stork: I'm going as a Mummy
Junko: I'm going to be Werewolf
Luna: Hold that thought
Luna sped off as she rushed into her room and changed, while the Storm Hawks were confused until they saw two smoke bombs roll in as it exploded to a red and black color. They all shielded their eyes when they saw someone cartwheeling their way towards them as they bow and smiled.
^Luna Costume
Luna: Ta-Da~ Luna the Harlequin
Finn/Stork: [jaws dropped] Wow~
Mags: [mumbles] Simps
Aerrow: Incredible Luna, but save your grand entrance when we welcome our party guest. Alright gang, let's get this Condor ready for our guest!
Storm Hawks: Yeah!!!
Everyone scattered around the Condor to place pumpkin, fake cobwebs, a cauldron, some refreshments and food. Luna left to get the word out as she sent the invitation to every Sky Knight they know, as they reached to Atmosia to land and set up everything for the party. Finn was carving out his pumpkin into a Jack-o-lantern as he tried to be scary when he turned sound to be scared by the sight of a plague doctor.
^Mags's Costume
Finn: GYAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!
Mags: Relax you moron, it's me [take off the mask]
Finn: Mags?
Luna: Wait...is that my makeup?
Mags:.....No...
[Door Open]
Piper: Hey Mags where Luna make up bag?
Luna: I KNEW IT!!!
Mags: Okay fine, I borrowed your make up to do heavy eyeliner
Luna: Okay fine, I'll let it slide
Aerrow: Alright guys, the guest will be here soon so be ready
Storm Hawks: Yeah!!
Everyone was in their costume as the guest started arriving, Luna went to her room to get something when a presence of a ghost started following her so it could spook Luna only to slam their body against the door making a loud thud. Luna heard the sound of the thud as she opens the door to look around, until she looked down to see Radarr in a ghost costume.
Luna: Radarr, you're a ghost. How adorable~
Radarr felt disappointed that he didn't look scary, the party was held inside and outside the condor as they either chose to hang indoors or outside where Luna set up a telescope to see the stars. Mags set up a bobbing for apples for everyone to try, Piper set up a campfire for everyone to tell creepy and scary stories. While Finn and Junko hand out refreshments, everyone was enjoying the party when Luna used her smoke bomb to make herself appear as she made an announcement.
Luna: Fellow Sky Knights! In just 3 hours, we will hold our very first Halloween Costume Contest, Sky Knights from each Terra can sign up and participate in this contest to see which one has the best costume. And remember only one from each Terra can participate, so I suggest you choose wisely or it's to the dunk of doom!!!
Stork: Dun dun.... DUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNN!!
Luna: And as a MC I like to see a harsh and-
[Bonk]
Luna: Ow~!
Aerrow: What she means to say is we'd like to see what each Terra has
Piper: The catagories we're looking for is 1. Original
Finn: 2. Scary
Mags: And 3. Best in character
Aerrow: You'll have three hours to decide, you can switch between time but once the timer is up, the decision is final. Have fun and enjoy the party!!
The Sky Knights cheered as everyone enjoyed, danced, and chatted while Luna hears a familiar song being played as she cartwheeled over and grabbed the mic as she started singing.

The crowd cheered and applauded as Luna bowed, the music played as many Sky Knights tried the refreshments while others bobbed for apples, and some danced to the music. Mags was chatting with Piper and Aerrow when all of the sudden out of the corner of his eye he spotted a rustling of the bush as a few Talons lay low and scurried away quietly.
Mags: [whispers] Talons, should've known
Aerrow: Hm? You say something Mags
Mags: [smile] Oh! It's nothing really. Say Aerrow, I do hope we don't get any party crashers
Aerrow: Sure hope not, um... Why are you pointing at something?
Mags slapped his face as he grew frustrated and got a hold of Aerrow chin and faced him towards what he saw until he spotted them, it wasn't long until Aerrow finally saw it.
Aerrow: Talons, why are they here?!
Mags: Isn't it obvious? They're here to capture all the Sky Knights, we need to get rid of them
Piper: But how?
???: Might I suggest an idea?
Piper/Aerrow/Mags: GYAH!!!
All three of them jumped as they looked back and saw Luna grinning with her serial killer face on, making them shriek again.
Aerrow: Gyah!! Luna stop that!!
Luna: Stop what?
Aerrow: Stop with the serial killer face!!
Luna: I have an idea, what is the one thing everyone loves about Halloween?
Junko: Candy?
Luna: No
Finn: The cool costumes?
Luna: No
Piper/Mags: The jump scares?
Luna: Close, but~ we don't have a haunted maze~ which means we'll create our very own out in the opening and scare the living daylights out of the Talons. What do you say? Shall we give them the right of a lifetime?
Aerrow: Let's do it!
Stork: Oh this is going to unleash so much screams and terror!!... [grin] For them
Luna: Pass this note to each Sky Knight, we'll divide into a small groups and give these Talons a scream of a life time. muahahahahaha~!!!!
Aerrow: Okay Luna that's enough
Luna: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAAAAAAA~!!!!
[Bonk]
Luna: Ow~!
Mags: Save it for the Talons
Aerrow: Pass the note guys, Luna get the bucket of your "fake blood"
Luna: [grin] You got it
Luna sped off in the Condor bringing her bucket of fake blood she made as a small group of Sky Knights came in so that Luna could make them look like zombies, vampires, werewolves, any scary monster she could think of as they secretly went to their location to lure the Talons to their doomed. Meanwhile a small group of Talons were getting ready to fly off with their skimmers when one of them heard a twig break, making that person jump in fear while the others looked around.
[🧟♀️🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🧟♀️]
Talon C: D-Did any of you h-h-hear that?
Talon A: Probably a stray wandering around, let's get back on before-
[Twig]
[Footsteps... Footsteps]
Talon C: GYAH!! There it is again!! S-S-Something's out there
Talon E: Pipe down!! There no one out-
[Howling]
Talon A: What was that?!
[Snarling]
All of the sudden a snowy white wolf came out from the bushes with it's mouth covered in blood dripping from it's snout to it's chest fur, making the talons shake in fear as some small parts of the ground break as a arm emerged and out crawled an deceased corpses crawling out as it stood on their feet's and moans like the dead and walked towards them.
Talons: GYAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!
All of the sudden they hear the eerie sound of the Organ playing from a distance, however it was loud enough for them to hear when a sinister voice is heard.
Eerie Female Voice [Piper]: When darkness falls in the world of Atmos
Eerie Male Voice [Mags]: Around every turn, new terror abounds
Eerie Male Voice [Aerrow]: You don't want to lose your heads
Eerie Female Voice [Luna]: HA HA HA!!!
The Talons started screaming as they ran for their lives only to stop halfway to see a mad scientist conducting an experiment bringing back more of the dead as she laughed in a cackle tone causing a zombie gladiator and a werewolf to rise as they scare the Talons.
Mad Scientist [Piper]: WHICH ONE SHALL I EXPERIMENT NEXT???!!!! HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAH!!!!!
The Talons jump in fright and ran in a different direction, trying to get away from the zombies until they were surrounded by fog as a sound of a small jingle of a bell was heard along with a laugh of a child and a eerie sound of something heavy being dragged. It wasn't long until they saw something glowing from afar like two headlights until it emerged to reveal a plague doctor, as the doctor removed it's masked laughing in a deep sinister tone until his face was revealed. His forehead dripping with blood while he had a yandere like face as he grinned and laughed maniacally insane.
Plague Doctor [Mags]: Don't stand so close to me~ AHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAAAAA!!!!!
Talons: AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
Just then they heard footsteps from behind them as they see a harlequin walked up to them, she giggles for a while until it became more maniacal as she started at them with a grin.
Harlequin [Luna]: You would think after living your life with the Dark Ace you'd get used to a little PAIN!!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAAAA!!!!!
Just then she raised a mallet over her shoulders as she got ready to whack them, until they ducked and ran for their lives. It wasn't long until they spotted their skimmers and sped off when they spotted from afar in their way a ghostly knight with his weapon unsheathed, as they stopped midway and shaken in fear.
Ghostly Knight: The crimes you have committed this night shall not go unpunished
[Loud Tap... Loud Tap]
They all turned around to see the zombies, werewolves, ghouls, harlequin, plague doctor, and mad scientist appear with sinister laughs while the werewolves snarled when a reaper walked up to them and raised its scythe at them.
Reaper [Female]: YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW!!!!!!!
Talons: AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Just then they avoided the attack only to be drenched in blood, making gagging sounds as they sped off and flew away. It wasn't long until the Knight removed his helmet and contacted from the Condor.
[🧟♀️🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🧟♀️]
Aerrow: Stork! Starling! Harrier!!! OPEN FIRE!!!
Starling [Coms]: We're on it!!
Back at the Condor, Starling and Harrier were on the canons as they blasted the talons out of the sky as their skimmers shatter and they used their parachute to save themselves, back with the others Aerrow looked though the binoculars and saw that the Talons were defeated.
Aerrow: Alright everyone!! That's a wrap!!
The Sky Knights cheered and applauded as they high dived each other and laughed.
Luna: YES!!! SCORE ONE FOR THE SKY KNIGHTS!!!
Sky Knights: YEAH!!!!
While others were cheering, those who were dressed like werewolves howled.
Aerrow: Good job everyone, you were all in character!
Piper: Yeah!! It was so much fun!!
Mags: Totally worth it!! Hahaha!!!
Aerrow: Good, now~ [cover Mags face] Go back to being your normal self, you too Luna. Stop with what serial killer face!!
Luna: You mean this serial killer face?
Finn: Gyah!! Stop it!!!
Luna: Stop what?
Finn: Stop it!! Stork!! Luna not going back to her cutiepie face that we love!!!
Stork [Coms]: I'm on it
Stork arrived with Starling and Harrier as he walked up to Luna and pinched her cheeks, it wasn't long until she gave in and went back to her usual self.
Aerrow: By the way Luna, impressive concoction of the fake blood
Luna: Thanks, I was saving that for a future prank but today will do
Starling: There aren't anymore talons, which mean the party can continue
Aerrow: Everyone, let's go back and celebrate!!
Everyone cheered as they head back to the party to celebrate Halloween, after cleaning up from the blood and dirt everyone was enjoying the party until Aerrow made an announcement.
Aerrow: Okay everyone! It's time to vote who has the best Halloween costume!! Our MC, Luna will be announcing the contestants. Luna
Luna: Gladly! From all the way from Terra Rex with their historical background of being the oldest sky knights!! Give it up for the Rex Guardians leader, Harrier as Ruler!!

Billy Rex: WOOOOOOOOO~!!!!!
Luna: Next up, we have our next contestant! From the Condor itself, but you better watch out cause this one will give you a fright!! Give it up for the Storm Hawks, Stork as~ a Mummy!!
Just then the smoke started to appear as Luna rolled in a sarcophagus until it slowly opened and out rises a Mummy, scaring everyone around him. Luna went on announcing each Sky Knight until it was time to announce the winners.
Luna: Ahem! In third place, we have~ Terra Mesa sky knight of the Interceptors!!! Starling as a vampire!!

Luna:... The Sky Knight of the Storm Hawks!! Stork!!!
[Applauds and cheers]
Stork: I won? I actually won?!
Luna: Yes Stork! Get over here!!
Stork got up on stage as he was handed the trophy and everyone applauded and cheered, while Stork smiled and gave Luna a kiss on the cheeks making her blush while Mags, Piper, Dove, and Starling snicker at the cute future couple.
Aerrow: Now let's party!!!
The music came back on as Finn dashed past Aerrow and Stork as he dragged Luna to the dance floor and danced with Luna when the song played "September by Earth, Wind & Fire" as the Storm Hawks got together and danced to the music. Afterwards Mags and Aerrow hangout on the Condor balcony as they drink some punch, and watch the party from afar.
Aerrow: This was the best party ever
Mags: You said it
Aerrow: Say, how come you didn't participate?
Mags: Nah, I'm not into costume contest, plus Stork can pull off a realistic mummy
Aerrow: True
Mags: Say, do you think someday when we get older we'll remember each other?
Aerrow: How?
Mags: Like... What if Finn or Stork marry Luna and they decide to have kids of their own
Aerrow: Well, knowing them they might stay together in the Condor if Luna marry Stork, that is if Luna chooses Finn then those two will probably settle down somewhere
Mags: What about you? What will you do?
Aerrow: Probably still be a Sky Knight, but if I ever figure out this feeling in my chest then maybe... I'll figure it out
Mags: Yeah... As for me, I'll probably do the same
Aerrow: Guess we'll just have to figure it out... Together
Aerrow smiled while Mags blushes when they stare at each others eyes, they both were staring for a when they leaned close to each other until.
[SNAP]
Luna: You guys gonna kiss or what?!
Aerrow/Mags: GAAHHH!!!!
They both backed away from each other when they spotted Luna holding a camera in her hands, with a Cheshire smile on her face.
Mags: Luna!!!!
Aerrow: Get back here!!!! Get rid of that picture!!!
Luna: NEVER!!! Hahahahahahhaha!!!
Aerrow and Mags chased Luna all over the Condor until they were outside, making it hard for them to find Luna.
Aerrow: Ah who am I kidding, we'll find her
Mags: Eventually. I mean what is she gonna do? Show it to Dove, Piper, Starling, and Suzy Lu? Ha!... We gotta find her
Meanwhile, at the other side of the party, the girls huddle around Luna seeing the picture she took. The girls giggled and smiled seeing the soon to be lovely couple falling for each other, Luna placed the picture in her scrapbook when Aerrow called out his squadron as they gather and hopped on their skimmers and drove off into the sky creating a sky art of a Jack-O-Lantern until they flew far and look out at the readers.
Storm Hawks: HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!!!
~ HAPPY HALLOWEEN FROM ANIMELOVERMURILLO ~
