Amaya snapped to reality as the she heard the twins start laughing.

"Yeah, we're in." They said together, then they smiled creepily.

"I especially like the idea..." Hikaru started.

"Of it being dark." Koaru finished.

Amaya heard everyone talking about how good the idea was and now she was slowly dying on the inside, getting paler with each passing moment that she almost looked like the ghost.

"Well now, why don't we think this through everyone." Soga said. "We can't all go individually, we should be in teams of at least three or four."

"Yeah! Teams would be scarier!" Kurakano said smiling widely. 

"And anybody who leaves." Hikaru said.

"Gets featured on the front page of the school newspaper as the Captain of All Cowards!" Koaru exclaimed.

Poor Soga looked terrified, but Amaya didn't look any better, she was standing in the corner completely pale and in a cold sweat.

"Seconded!" The whole class yelled.

"Um... Alright then. Are there any objections to the majority vote? Are there any at all?"

Amaya rose her hand slightly, but it seemed as if nobody was looking at her, and Soga seemed to be staring at Haruhi, hoping she would object.

"Is anyone opposed to the idea?" He seemed desperate now, and Amaya opened her mouth to say something just as the twins appeared and covered her mouth.

"You're not scared, are you?" They asked, their eyes glinting.

Amaya pulled their hands away and faked a smile. "N-no, I'm not scared. The dark just unnerves me...  That doesn't c-count."

"So you wouldn't oppose," Hikaru started.

"To the idea?" Kouru finished.

"O-of course not!" She said.

"Great!" The twins said, then they walked back over to Haruhi.

"Come on, anyone?" Soga said, when nobody objected, he slouched his shoulders and smiled in defeat, "Oh very well... The motion passes unanimously. The class 1-A event of this year, will be a special Holloween test of courage tounent."

Everyone cheered, except Amaya, who was sitting in the back in cold terror.

"So, after dark, huh? You must be terrified." Gigi said, floating up to Amaya.

"Not the time G-Gigi." Amaya stuttered quietly.

Soon the day was over and Amaya followed the twins and Haruhi to the Music room, shaking a tiny bit as she sat the room was only candle-lit. She saw the hosts dressed up as Vampires, and Amaya started to head to the changing rooms, only to be pulled back by the twins.

"Oh no you don't." They said, "You're helping with the preparations."

Amaya looked at them silently, knowing she had no choice but to go along. She spots Kyoya wearing his vampire costume and felt her cheeks heat up, she quickly looked away and towards Tamaki.

"Hello!" The twins said, walking up to the club.

"Why are you guys late?" Tamaki asked sternly, "Hurry up and change."

"Sorry boss." Hikaru said, "but from now until Holloween,"

"Count us out." Koaru said.

"Okay?" They said.

"What?" Tamaki exclaimed.

"Count you out?" Honey asked.

"We're on the preparation committee for a special event class 1-A is sponsoring it." They said.

"H-hey! I never a-agreed to that!" Amaya said.

The twins turned to look at her, "Well, you sort of know all things creepy. So we assumed it would be best of you were in the committee with us." Hikaru said.

"Besides, it's a whole class thing, everyone has to attend." Koaru added.

"Anyways, Good luck without us here for a week!" They said, now facing Tamaki, and the group started to slip away.

"You have fun!" Honey shouted out.

"Hold on! Why is Haruhi going?"

Amaya didn't hear their response, she was watching as Gigi acted as if she had fangs, imitating Tamaki's reaction when Koaru told him what the event was.

"Haruhi, you're not going to take part in this, are you?" He asked. "For heaven's sake, tell me you won't!"

"Calm down sempai. It's just some harmless fun."

"Besides, everyone has to go u-unless they want to b-be the King of all C-Cowards, sempai..." Amaya muttered, pushing her index fingers together. She watched as Tamaki overreacted again, then he placed one hand each on Haruhi and and Amaya's shoulders.

"You two won't go. You can't go. Daddy doesn't like it." Tamaki whined.

"L-let go of me senpai!" Amaya said, pulling away from him.

"Okay, time to go now." The twins said, grabbing onto Haruhi's shoulders and pulling her out of the room with Amaya following them out.

Tamaki shouted out something, but Amaya didn't hear it as she walked out of the dark room into the brightly lit hallway, feeling a bit more relaxed. She was greatfull that the world didn't fade into black when she was in there, as it would usually do if she were in the dark.

Amaya followed the three into homeroom, and sat next to Haruhi as they planned the event.

"So what kind of budget limit should we put on costumes?" Kurakano asked, "Once everyone goes shopping, everyone will go all out."

"Why don't we follow the commoner's rule of keeping it under three hundred yen?" Hikaru suggested.

"That should make things interesting." Koaru said.

"It would be good to have a doctor handy." Renge said. "Just in case anyone faints, has a heart attack, jumps out of a window or something."

That's quite dramatic... Amaya thought.

"Okay, so under three hundred yen, Doctor present, hey, are we gonna have food?" Koaru asked.

Amaya looked up and watched as Haruhi walked out of the room, and the twins watched also, getting a look on their faces that Amaya didn't exactly like.

"Of course we will." Kurakano said. "Hey, Amaya, you want to add anything?"

"S-sure!" Amaya said, smiling. "First off, we need to make sure some of the rooms are locked, like the janitors closet, the teacher's lounge, and stuff like that. We don't want students going where they're not supposed t-to." She said., her stutter getting better.

"Good idea!" Kurakano smiled, then she watched as the twins walked out of the room, leaving just the two girls sitting alone. Kurakano looked at Amaya, "Hey, so do you have a group yet?"

Amaya shook her head, "No, not yet. To be honest, I was sort o-of planning on somehow skipping this."

"That's no good!" Kurakano exclaimed, "I say you are on my group, team A!" She exclaimed, then she stood up, leaving Amaya to sit alone at the Windowsill, watching Gigi fly around the room. "I'd better get all the teams written down!" She said, then walked outside, most likely to ask the twins, Haruhi, and Soga what team they would be in.

What have I gotten myself into? Amaya wondered, biting her lip.
