Halloween; the holiday that Amelia loathed with a passion. It wasn't the fact that she was scared or anything. It was just the fact that Amelia found it pointless. Kids dressing up in costumes, going around and getting candy and then pulling scary pranks. (That last part was directed more towards her Father and America though).

As the 16-year old sat in her dorm room, reading her Harry Potter book, her roommate, Allison, was rushing all throughout the room getting herself ready for a date with her boyfriend, Aurel. The two were going to an old Monster Movie marathon premiering at the movie theater down the road. "Let's see, I have my phone, my lipstick, my eyeliner," She listed off as she rummaged through her purse. Then she let out a loud shriek that could've woken the dead on this all Hallows eve: "Sacre Blu! I cannot find my wallet! Amelia 'ave you seen it?!"

"Didn't you use it early today when you were buying that salad in the cafeteria?" Amelia asked, not looking up from her book.

Allison gasped. "You're right!" Thinking quickly, Allison ran to the door and then rushed to the staircase so she could make her way to the cafeteria before it closed for the night.

With the room now short one occupant, Amelia thought she could finally get some peace and quiet. Oh boy was she wrong. Just as she was getting to the climax of the book, there was a loud knock at the door. "Now what?" Amelia groaned as she got up from her spot on her bed.

She made her way to the door and opened it to find Amanda on the other side, dawned in a Ghost Busters' costume. She was in the jumpsuit and had the vaccume on her back. "Trick or Treat!" Amanda greeted, holding out her bag of candy.

Amelia growled a bit before slamming the door in Amanda's face.

"Aww come on Amelia! Don't be like that!" Amanda walked into the room and found Amelia back on her bed, reading once more. "Amelia, you can't seriously be sitting inside on tonight of all nights!"

"Yes I can," Amelia flatly stated.

"But Amelia that's boring. You should totally go out and have some fun."

Amelia glared at Amanda before looking back down at her book, making Amanda a bit irritated. "While you're here, can you get me a drink from the fridge?"

Amanda groaned before heading to the fridge to get a drink like she had requested. She opened it to find a section that had bottles of water filled with what looked like green Gatorade. Soe were labeled with Amelia's name on it. "Who knew she drank Gatorade," Amanda mumbled before taking a bottle out and then bringing it back to Amelia. "Here ya go Amelia."

"Thank you," Amelia thanked before taking a sip of her drink. She wasn't really paying attention to see what color the drink was so when the liquid had hit her tastebuds, she was shocked at the sour taste. "Amanda, what did you give me?!"

"Green Gatorade?"

"No you twit!" Amelia looks down at the bottle and ferls her face turn pale. "You gave me a potion I was working! That's why I kept it in the fridge!"

"Well how was I suppose to know that?!"

"You-" Amelia stopped and then began having a horrible coughing fit, causing her to fall to the ground with her blanket covering her up as she coughed.

"Amelia?" Amanda asked in fear. "Are you okay?"

After her coughing fit had ended, Amelia slowly stood up with her back to Amanda. When she turned to look at the American, Amanda gasped at what she saw; Amelia's eyes were now blood-red, the tips of her hair were now white, and she was smirking at her. "Thank you for freeing me my dear~," Amelia thanked with a bow. "I am Beauté."

"Huh? Amelia, what are you talking about?"

Beauté chuckled at Amanda. "As a show of gratitude, I'll give you a minute to run."

"F-From what?"

"Me."

Amanda gasped and then slowly began to back away before running out the door and down the left hallway. Coming up from the right hallway was Allison, who had everything she needed for her date with Aurel. As soon as she walked into her room though, she was shocked to find Amelia was pulling out all of her dresses and then throwing them onto the floor. "Amelia, what are you doing?!" The French girl shouted.

"None of these dresses will do for me," Beauté stated, not really paying attention to Allison as she threw another dress onto the floor. Then she found a strapless green-black dress that cut just above the knees. "Now this will do quite nicely~."

Allison was absolutely fuming at this point with rage. She rushed over to Beauté and took the dress out of her hands. "Zhis is mine zhank you very much, and so are zhe dresses on the floor!" She placed them on the bed and then glared at Beauté. "Why would you do zhat?"

Beauté shook her head at Allison before lifting her hand up to bind Allison to the wall, shocking the French girl. "First off, my name isn't Amelia, it's Beauté. Second off, I'm going to have to punish you."

"P-P-Punish me?" Allison stuttered.

"Yes. Now sit tight while I look through this spell book." As Beauté looked through the spell book, Allison struggled to get free but found it impossible. Then the witch found something interesting. "Now my dear, how do you feel about vampires?"

"Well I zhink zhat some are rather cute," Allison blushed. "Especially a certain Edward Cullen." (Maddie: He's not a real vampire!)

"I see. Well I hope you enjoy being one."

Before Allison could say anything, Beauté said a spell in Latin. Allison closed her eyes but didn't feel anything, except when Beauté released her and let her down. "I don't feel any different," Allison said.

"Three, two, one."

Suddenly, a wave of pain rushed through Allison, causing her to collapse to the ground. She held her stomach as her eyes turned red, her teeth sharpened, and her her skin became pale. After her transformation was complete, Allison stood up and bowed to Beauté. "What is your command madame?"

"Oh just go on that date of yours with your boyfriend," Beauté instructed. "He's one of the few humans who won't be affected by my curse."

"Oui madame. I will make 'im like me."

"Perfect." Beauté chuckled as she turned to the page where her curse was. "Soon this world will be much more, interesting."
