A/N: There, happy?
Patch had come over to the Starling household to visit Tom, Jerry, and Robyn as it was almost a very special holiday that many enjoyed in the season of Fall. Robyn was practicing some magic to give herself a Halloween costume and first tried out a Princess Peach costume which Tom seemed to laugh at.
"Hmm... You're right, totally not me." Robyn said before using her magic again to change into a costume that of Charmcaster.
"Hm..." Jerry shrugged to that one.
"I think Cherry said she was gonna wear that this year." Patch told the girl.
Robyn shrugged and then tried a Supergirl costume.
"Isn't Annabelle going as that?" Jerry asked Patch.
"Oh, yeah." Patch said as he now remembered.
"Ugh! I give up!" Robyn complained before collapsing onto her bed with Tom, Jerry, and Patch. "It's gonna be time for next Halloween when Uncle Chip can come over once we find something we can all agree on."
"Why not Wonder Girl? No one's going as her." Patch suggested.
"Yeah." Tom and Jerry agreed.
"Wonder Girl?" Robyn asked. "Is that like Wonder Woman's sidekick?"
"I rest my case." Patch said.
Robyn shrugged as that was a good point and she used her wizard magic to a red tank top with the golden Wonder crest with a belt, a gold crown, a blue skirt with white stars on it, and red boots with white stripes.
"Wow," Patch smiled. "You look amazing."
"I think we have a winner!" Tom added.
"Wow, thanks, guys." Robyn smiled back to them.
"This feels like it's gonna be a great Halloween already." Jerry smiled.
"Thanks, guys, I can't wait to meet up with the others." Robyn smiled back.
"Others? You made some new friends?" Patch smiled, happy to hear this.
"Oh, I didn't tell you?" Robyn replied. "Yeah, I have actually."
"Oh, Robyn, that's great!" Patch smiled. "I'm glad to see you going out there and making some new friends."
"Yeah, she made five friends." Jerry smiled back.
"Five friends?! Whoa, look at you, Ms. Popular." Patch smirked playfully at Robyn.
Robyn smiled bashfully, rubbing her arm.
"Who are these kids then?" Patch asked.
"Well, there's boy who's also named Tom, and there's the other boys: Ralph, Wally, and Pip, and then there's Jenny." Robyn told him.
"I can't wait to meet them." Patch smiled.
"So, what are you going to go as?" Tom asked him.
"I was thinking of maybe being Krypto the Superdog." Patch replied.
"Cool, so then you just need the cape and the Super symbol and some make-up for your black spots." Jerry said.
"Yeah, that's true..." Patch admitted. "I'll look like my niece Oddball before her spots came in."
"So, she did grow spots?" Robyn asked.
"Eventually, yeah," Patch nodded. "Just a late bloomer."
"So, do you know anyone that can help you with the make-up and cape and Super symbol?" Tom asked.
"I dunno about the make-up yet, but I could always try a little magic." Patch suggested.
"Just be careful," Jerry replied. "That magic stuff seems crazy sometimes."
"Don't worry." Patch assured him before using his magic to change him into Superdog.
Tom and Jerry watched with nearly shielded eyes from the bright light, but Robyn smiled as she loved magic, especially with the way it was apart of her life now, finding out she was part wizard and not knowing when she was younger when she hung out with Uncle Chip. Patch gave a small smirk as he was now ready for the Halloween season in his new costume.
"Whoa, looks like magic was the answer to even handling your spots." Tom smiled.
"I just love being a familiar." Patch smiled back.
Meanwhile, Cherry was putting on some eye-liner and looked in the mirror, oohing at herself as she wore silver hair in a dark pink jacket outfit which was that known as Charmcaster. Lightning soon went off in the house which only meant one thing and Cherry rushed to the closet door to see it was Drell.
"Did you get it?" Cherry asked.
"Hi, Cherry, I'm fine, thanks for asking." Drell crossed his arms.
"Sorry, I just really need to know if you got it." Cherry said.
"Yes, I got it; nearly cost my life, but I got it." Drell groaned as he brought out what Cherry requested.
"Thank you~" Cherry said as she brought out a special collar before calling out. "Okay, you can come out now!"
"I'm still not sure about her coming to Magic School with you and the others," Drell said to Cherry. "I mean... She's a... Well... You know..."
"Can't you just make an exception since she's not a witch or a wizard?" Cherry asked.
"Well, I-" Drell began, but then covered Cherry's mouth and smiled innocently as the door opened.
A girl soon came in and it was revealed to be Cherry's other good friend known as Cathleen Ross.
"Just don't say I didn't warn you." Drell whispered to Cherry.
"You guys talking about something?" Cathleen asked as she put on the collar.
"Politics!" Drell lied.
Cherry face-palmed to that.
"Now, you're sure that this collar won't make me change under the full moon?" Cathleen asked the warlock.
"I am positive." Drell told her.
"Cherry said people might freak out if they see me as a wolf..." Cathleen said.
"They're right about that," Drell mumbled under his breath a little rudely which gave him an elbow to the stomach from Cherry. "Anyway, have a good time."
"Remember our deal." Cherry said.
Drell waved her off and left into the closet, shutting the door behind him as lightning flashed as he went back home.
"Did you get your costume?" Cherry asked.
"Oh, yeah!" Cathleen said before going into the room to change real quick and after a few moments, she came back out, dressed as She-Ra.
"Nice." Cherry said.
"I look great." Cathleen smirked.
"Don't bruise your ego, I already have an Atticus." Cherry replied.
"Well, aren't you Little Miss Sunshine?" Cathleen giggled innocently.
Cherry simply rolled her eyes playfully.
"So, when do I meet Atticus?" Cathleen asked.
"He should be here anytime now." Cherry replied.
They soon heard the doorbell ring.
"Excuse me." Cherry said before going to the door.
Cathleen looked in the mirror and adjusted herself to make a good first impression.
"What's the password?~" Cherry asked in a playfully posh voice, keeping the door shut.
"Best friends forever." Atticus's voice said.
"Hmm..." Cherry smirked. "Ah, I can't stay mad at that, it's so cute and mushy."
"Cherry?!" Atticus's voice replied.
"You may enter." Cherry said, opening the door for him.
Atticus soon came in as Superboy.
"Superboy?" Cherry asked.
"Charmcaster?" Atticus smirked.
Cherry just rolled her eyes to that. "Anyway, Atticus, I'd like you to meet another good friend of mine." She then said.
"Aw, you have a new best friend?" Atticus pouted.
"Cut the theatrics..." Cherry deadpanned. "Hey, Cath, come on out!"
Cathleen soon came out to meet Atticus for the first time and vice versa.
"Hey." Atticus greeted Cathleen.
"Hi!" Cathleen replied. "So, you're the famous Atticus Fudo."
"I'm guessing Cherry's told you a lot about me." Atticus smiled.
"I've heard some things, yes..." Cathleen replied. "I'm kinda jealous."
"Of what?" Atticus asked.
"That you guys get to go on adventures all the time and that Drell sends you on 'em," Cathleen smiled. "I'd love that! My life's kinda boring most of the time."
"Drell mostly sends us on adventures when we feel like it and sometimes just throws us into it without waiting for us to tell if we're ready or not," Atticus told her. "But, yeah, adventures can make your life exciting."
"I can live with that." Cathleen shrugged.
"And yet he chose me..." Cherry muttered about her adventurous lifestyle.
"Anyways, shall we get going?" Atticus asked.
"Where's your dog?" Cherry asked.
"He's going with Tom, Jerry, and Robyn." Atticus said.
"Okay then." Cherry shrugged.
The three of them soon left the house.
"Uh, why is she wearing a collar?" Atticus asked Cherry.
"Um... Well..." Cherry tapped her knuckles nervously. "Cathleen has a special... Um... Condition."
"What kind of condition?" Atticus asked.
"Uh... Well... It's about the full moon..." Cherry said.
"What is she, a Nix?" Atticus asked.
"Heh... No, not that." Cherry smiled nervously.
"Werewolf?" Atticus guessed.
"Uh... Yeah..." Cherry soon admitted.
Cathleen looked back, sensing she was being talked about as she adjusted the collar so she wouldn't transform and scare people away since she was violent and easily angered which was probably from her wolf genetics.
"So then this would be the fifth werewolf we're friends with." Atticus said.
"I guess you could say that..." Cherry grinned sheepishly.
"I also wanna get into Magic School with you guys." Cathleen said, a bit hopeful.
"You might get into Magic School." Atticus said.
"I want to..." Cathleen said. "It sounds so much better than regular school where everyone just picks on me for no reason and all I wanna do is eat their hearts out, but my dad says I'm not allowed to do that."
"Um, maybe because people need their hearts to live?" Atticus said, looking a little disturbed.
"They deserve it..." Cathleen narrowed her eyes.
"Cath, no." Cherry told her.
"Hmph." Cathleen pouted and crossed her arms.
'She's an interesting case,' Atticus thought to himself. 'I wonder how Patch is doing?'
Patch waited with Tom, Jerry, and Robyn until the doorbell rang.
Mr. Starling came to the door and answered it with a smile once he saw that it was his brother-in-law. "Ah, Chip, so good to see you."
"Sorry, I'm late, but I hada little pest problem, but I'm sure now." Chip said.
"It's really good to see you, come on in," Mr. Starling smiled as he let his brother-in-law inside. "Robyn! Your Uncle Chip is here!" he then called out to upstairs, knowing his daughter would be with Tom and Jerry.
"Coming!" Robyn called back before coming downstairs with the animals.
Patch came down first and held out his paw to show off Robyn. "Presenting, our very own Robyn Starling as Wonder Girl!" he then announced.
Robyn smiled and did a small twirl in her costume.
"Oh, Robyn, that's a wonderful costume." Chip smiled to his niece.
"Thanks, Uncle Chip." Robyn smiled back before she felt a sudden chill.
Mr. Starling couldn't believe how grown-up Robyn looked in her Wonder Girl outfit. Tom and Jerry smiled to Robyn, but frowned in concern as she suddenly shivered.
"Uncle Chip, can wizards tell when something bad's happened to someone?" Robyn asked.
"Sometimes they can, certain ones do," Chip replied. "Your mother used to get like that all the time with her friends. Oh, Robyn, do you feel something?"
"I think I do." Robyn replied.
"Like someone's ghost just left his or her body?" Chip asked.
"Yeah." Robyn nodded.
"That's odd..." Chip commented.
"G-G-Ghost?!" Tom shivered, as his fur stood on end.
"Something's wrong, I just know it." Robyn frowned.
"You still want to come out though, don't you?" Chip asked her. "We don't have to if you're not feeling well."
"No, no, I do." Robyn said.
"You're sure?" Mr. Starling asked.
"Yes, Daddy, I'm sure, but I think we should be careful." Robyn reassured.
"That's a good idea." Patch nodded in agreement.
Tom and Jerry still felt worried about Robyn.
"Maybe I should stay here and help Robyn's dad give out Halloween candy." Tom smiled nervously to Patch and Jerry.
"You're coming with." Patch said.
"M-M-Me? S-Should I?!" Tom asked nervously.
"Aw, come on, Tom, don't tell me you're a scaredy cat on Halloween." Patch smirked to the gray cat.
"He kinda is sometimes." Jerry whispered to Patch with a small smirk back.
"No, I'm not!" Tom glared.
"He got really scared of ghosts when we heard a radio drama about them one year." Jerry told Patch.
"Did not!" Tom pouted.
"Oh, really?" Jerry smirked.
"Jerry, you didn't try to scare him because he was already frightened, did you?" Robyn asked, almost firmly.
"Maybe... Maybe not?" Jerry replied innocently.
"Yes, he did!" Tom nodded firmly.
"Jerry!" Robyn scolded a little.
"It was just a harmless prank." Jerry shrugged modestly.
"Well, it's time to go right now," Chip smiled as he adjusted his cloak. "I just love a good Halloween."
"Halloween's a big deal in the supernatural world it seems." Patch commented.
"It sure is." Chip said.
"Be back before it gets too dark." Mr. Starling reminded.
"We will, Daddy, see you later." Robyn smiled before leaving with her uncle and animal friends.
"Let's start trick-or-treating." Patch said.
Robyn smiled as they soon left out as it was almost getting dark.
Darla was with Cherry, Atticus, and Cathleen as she waited to see Amber and Annabelle so that they could trick-or-treat together and wore a costume that Cherry recommended for her which was the tragic villain known as Baby Doll from the old show: Love That Baby, who looked a lot like Darla herself, only in purple and black clothes, and she even had her own doll, but luckily this one was just a prop and didn't have any ammo inside of it. Amber and Annabelle soon arrived after some time.
"There they are," Darla smiled. "I'll see you later, Atticus."
"If you have any trouble, just call me." Atticus reminded her as she ran off.
"I will!" Darla promised as she ran off to her friends.
"This is going to be a great Halloween." Amber smiled.
"It sure is," Annabelle smiled back. "Uh, what's your costume again, Amber?"
"I'm Princess Anna." Amber clarified.
"Ah, that's right..." Annabelle nodded.
"And I'm Baby Doll." Darla smiled.
"And I'm Supergirl!" Annabelle beamed.
"Excellent choice, Annabelle!" Atticus called out with a laugh before they separated for the night.
"This is gonna be great!" Cathleen beamed. "This Halloween is gonna be an adventure!"
"Yeah, yeah." Cherry said.
"Still wanna go for it." Cathleen smirked.
"Be my guest, just don't come crying to me if Drell wakes you up at 3:00 in the morning to send you to, I dunno, Atlantis." Cherry deadpanned.
"I think I'll live." Cathleen said.
Cherry rolled her eyes in slight deadpan.
"Oh! Patch!" Atticus smiled and waved, seeing his dog across the street with Robyn, Tom, Jerry, and Chip.
"Hey, Atticus!" Patch smiled back.
"So, that's the dog who can drive?" Cathleen asked.
"Yep." Cherry replied.
"Why did you teach your dog how to drive?" Cathleen asked Atticus.
"Just in case he would ever be in another car chase." Atticus said.
Cathleen shared a look with Cherry.
"I dunno, Cath, he's a weird kid..." Cherry told her. "Patch used to be a normal dog until the family visited London that one time while I stayed home."
"Being normal is overrated." Patch said.
Cherry rolled her eyes.
"Um, hello." Robyn smiled to Cathleen.
"Hi." Cathleen gave a small nod of her head.
"So, where are we headed?" Cherry asked.
"Gotta pick up my friends." Robyn smiled.
"You have friends?" Cherry asked only for Atticus to nudge her. "I didn't mean it like that!" she then told him.
"Yeah, she made five friends." Patch smiled.
"Well, way to go," Cherry smirked. "You remind me of a very young Twilight Sparkle."
Cathleen shuddered at the mention of ponies as she didn't seem interested in going to Equestria.
"I used to be home-schooled before I met you guys." Robyn told them about why she didn't really have any friends before she had met Tom and Jerry.
"Oh, that's an interesting way to learn." Atticus said.
"Daddy just thought it would be easier for me," Robyn nodded. "Come on, I'll show you guys where the others live."
The others followed her while Jerry did a ghostly moan right behind Tom which made him scream and then glare down at the laughing mouse.
"Not funny!" Tom glared at Jerry.
Jerry just kept laughing and smirked to Tom.
"Oh, you make me angry!" Tom glared as he grabbed Jerry in his paw.
"Ahem!" Robyn's voice cleared firmly.
"But he started it!" Tom whined.
"I don't care who started it, I'm ending it," Robyn told her pets. "Now come on, let's go get Jenny."
"So, what's she going as?" Patch asked.
"She's going as a witch." Robyn told him.
"What girl doesn't go as a witch for Halloween?" Chip chuckled.
"I did that last year actually." Robyn smiled to him.
They soon went over to the girl named Jenny's house.
