A Magical Halloween

Ch. 2

Soon, they arrived in a special parking lot. Their time at Disneyland had officially begun.

"I'll get everyone up," Nod offered, and walked in the cabin of the RV, and clapped his hands a couple times. "Hey, guys! Up and at 'em! We're here!"

Bomba snapped awake right away, being a light sleeper. "Huh? What?" He looked outside, and saw the parking lot. "Oh!"

"MK?" Nod gently nudged her shoulder, and kissed her forehead. "MK, we're here. Kids?" He woke the twins.

"Hmm?" Her green eyes blinked open, as did the kids'. "Oh! Soren, Susan, we're at Disneyland!"

"We are! Yay!" They cheered. Luckily, Libra was already awake at this time.

"Come on, sweetheart," Bomba lifted the baby out of her seat, "Let's wake up Mommy."

Mars was still peacefully asleep in the bed, on her side, as if the RV never moved, using her cozy robe as a blanket; her glasses were nearby, in the mirror cabinet where she couldn't break them by accident. He walked in, and put the infant on bed, over the soft sheets. "Okay, go wake Mommy, Libra." Cooing, she crawled up to her mama's face, and kissed her cheek with a cute little "mwah".

The pale redhead moaned sleepily at the contact, and her ruby eyes blinked open. "Mmm?" She saw Libra up close, and giggled. "Hey you; good morning," She kissed her forehead, and sat up, turning to her husband. "What's going on? Are we there?" She asked him, as he gave her glasses to her.

"Yep, we are. We'll let you get dressed." He took Libra out of the room.

Once alone, she quickly threw on her greyscale Alice in Wonderland dress and mint Little Mermaid sneakers, then joined the others. "Hey, guys!" She turned to her sister, brother-in-law, and niece. "We're here! Wake up!" The three were up at hearing the ruckus of everyone getting ready; with Lily in her aunts and uncles' supervision, Finn and Venus changed their clothes in the bedroom. She pulled on a purple Jack Skellington printed t-shirt, black high-rise distressed shorts, and black Stitch skeleton combat boots, while he went with a black Disney Villains t-shirt, simple jeans, and his sneakers.

"Come on, everyone. Let's get out of this thing." Ronin led the large family out into the night, Finn carrying a drowsy Lily in her pjs, clutching her beloved doll, and Mars holding an already sleeping Libra, while Bomba lugged the folded-up stroller. They made their way through the doors with their luggage, and entered the lobby. The kids admired the impressive interior through their fatigue, as they gathered on the curved couch, Ronin checking them in. The seating area had a Small World design carpet in shades of purple and blue, with hints of white. Finn leaned back on the purple cushions, with Lily laying sleepily on his chest, fighting to keep her eyes open.

"When're we getting in the room?" She mumbled.

"Soon, Lilybelle," He kissed the top of her head, "We'll be there soon. After we have dinner, we can go to bed."

"'Kay."

Mars laid back on the couch, caressing Libra's back soothingly. Due to getting some sleep more recently than the rest, she wasn't tired at all. In fact, she was getting hungry, so she was eager to eat.

MK had Susan close to her, as she and her boys waited for Ronin to finish at the front desk. "Where's Disneyland, Mommy?" Susan asked her.

"It's nearby outside," She replied, stroking her short red hair, "We'll be going there tomorrow, sweetie. We need to have dinner, and get some sleep first."

"Speaking of dinner, be right back," Nod stood up, and joined Ronin at the desk, "Hi. What restaurant do you recommend here? We haven't eaten yet. We're all together."

"Well, if you like a formal atmosphere, I'd go to Steakhouse 55," The clerk replied, "It's right here in the hotel, and the food is amazing."

"Okay," The brunette nodded, "Thanks. I'll talk to the rest of our family about it."

"You're very welcome, sir. Your children are adorable. Which ones are yours?" She asked them both.

"This one here," Ronin tussled Nod's hair, "And the twin girls with black hair."

"Mine are the little redheaded twins."

"Ah. Well, I hope you all have a magical time."

"Thank you," Ronin nodded politely. They then re-joined the rest of the family, while the said little twins were exploring the lobby together, with MK trying to keep up. Mars was watching, thankful that Libra could barely walk yet, let alone run. Nod joined his wife with their twins, as Ronin turned to the other parents. "We've got a suite with a great view."

"A suite? Cool!" Venus showed excitement.

"What's a suite, Grandpa?" Lily asked him innocently from her place on Finn's chest.

"It's a hotel room that's a lot bigger than the standards," Ronin explained to his ginger granddaughter, "It has more space."

"Wow," She smiled sleepily.

"We should get everyone back here, for when the bellhop arrives for our luggage," Bomba commented, "I reckon the kids will want to ride the cart."

"I got it," Ronin turned to his twin grandchildren, "Soren! Susan!" They ran over immediately, with MK and Nod closely following. "The bellhop should be here soon to carry our luggage for us, so we need to stay together."

"Okay!" They beamed simultaneously.

"You all excited?" Nod asked the kids.

"Yeah!" Susan exclaimed.

"I am!" Lily added.

"Me too!" Soren chimed in, as he climbed up next to Mars on the couch. "What about you, Libra?" She was fast asleep, and didn't hear a word he said. "Libra?" He tapped her back a little bit.

"Shh," Mars gently shushed him, guiding his hand away, "She's asleep, honey." She patted her nephew's head. "You can ask her later."

"Okay."

"What restaurant did you find?" Venus asked her adoptive big brother.

"It's called "Steakhouse 55"," He replied, "According to the clerk, it's a formal place, so we'll need to dress nicely."

"Hope you girls packed nice clothes," Finn smirked.

"We did, and then some," Venus giggled, "We packed nice clothes for you boys too, just in case."

Soon, a bellhop came to the family with a luggage cart, empty and ready for loading. "May I take your luggage?" He offered.

"Wow!" Soren ran up to the cart, Susan following closely.

"Cool!"

"Thank you," Venus nodded, and the adults loaded their suitcases on the cart. To their amusement, the twins hopped on for a ride, gripping the gold bars. "Uh, i-is it okay if they ride the cart?"

"They're just fine, ma'am," He assured her.

"I wanna ride too!" Lily joined them, evening out the weight to avoid the cart tipping. She held onto the bar with one arm, gripping her Anna doll with her other.

"Let's get to it then." The bellhop started leading the family to their suite, the three kids squealing with ecstacy.

"Our kids here have been really excited for this trip," Nod decided to make conversation along the way, "It's all they've been talking about."

"Well, it looks like they're already having a great time," The bellhop remarked with a friendly smile, "How old are they?"

"Our twins are six," Nod answered, holding MK closer.

"And our little girl is three," Venus added, holding Finn's arm lovingly.

"This little lady here is just a year old," Mars concluded, holding a peaceful Libra to her chest.

"Ah. Is this your first time at Disneyland?" He asked all of them.

"Not to the parks, but this is our first time staying in a hotel on the property," MK replied.

"Although this is Libra's first time here," Mars added in.

"Well, I can assure you that you all will be very comfortable here, at the Disneyland Hotel."

"It looks pretty great so far," Bomba commented, his arm around Mars' shoulders.

"This is our first time coming here for Halloween," Venus piped up, "Our Lily had the idea of us wearing matching pajamas, so we'll be doing just that tonight." She reached over, and patted the little ginger's head.

"That should be fun."

"It was my idea!" Lily exclaimed peppily.

"That's what your mommy just told me, kiddo," He chuckled at the adorable toddler. Soon, they made it to the 1-bedroom suite the family booked. "Here's your suite." The bellhop unlocked the door, gave Ronin the key, and opened the door, letting the family enter. "I hope it's to your liking."

"Wow," The twins breathed in awe, hopping off the cart and exploring the suite.

"Thanks," Nod tipped the bellhop with a dollar, as Ronin and Finn unloaded the suitcases.

"Lily? It's time to get off," Venus turned to her baby girl.

She stubbornly gripped on the brass bar with a sad pout. "I wanna ride more," She mumbled.

"Come on, sweetie," Venus knelt down, and gestured for her to come closer. "Hop in." She held her arms out to catch her; Lily reluctantly released her hold, and jumped in her mommy's arms. "There you go. Come on, let's look around." They passed by Mars laying a sleeping Libra on the couch, so she could help with the luggage, as they explored. Ronin was making a reservation at Steakhouse 55 while Mars, Bomba, Nod, and Finn handled the luggage. The bellhop left with the cart after it was empty, but not without wishing the family a magical night. "Isn't this suite nice?"

"Uh huh!" Lily nodded, looking all around the living room. The walls were tan with vertical two-tone stripes, and a tan swirled carpet. The couch and cushioned chairs were a modest tan, and the TV stand, tables, and cabinets were a dark brown with a slick texture. The four chairs at one table had blue vertical stripes on the cushions. From the windows, which were adorned with blue lining and blue/tan plaid drapes, they had a view of the Downtown Disney District. "When do we eat, Mommy? My tummy's hungry." A little growl proved Lily's point.

"Your Grandpa Ronin is making a reservation at a restaurant here in the hotel, baby. That's where we book a table ahead of time, so it's saved for us. Soon, all of our tummies will be well fed." Lily squealed and giggled when Venus tickled her stomach. "We'll just relax here for a little bit, then get dressed and head to the restaurant at our reserved time."

"Okay." She snuggled in her shoulder to relax, as they wandered the suite.

"Here's the bathroom," Venus walked in. The walls were a light dull blue color with a subtle print, a tan floor, white fluffy towels, and a tub with a shower, tiles in tan, blue, and white, and a blue and white curtain. The sink was a slick dark brown with white porcelain, a silver faucet, and white potted flowers. "Nice, huh?" They then ended their tour in the bedroom. The walls, carpet, and windows were the same as in the living room with two cozy-looking beds. They each had white sheets and covers, tan shiny skirts, two white long pillows, and a brown cushioned headboard. Between them was a brown nightstand with a lamp, and a brown wooden portrait of a castle and fireworks was above the headboards. A blue cushioned chair and a tall lamp sat by the window for a view. Lily was set on one of the beds, so Venus looked for the button to the portrait. "Hey, Lily? Watch the fireworks." She pressed the button, and the fireworks lit up!

"Wow!" The toddler clapped her little hands, and bounced on the bed, giggling with excitement. "Pretty!" Venus sat next to her on the bed, and they watched the portrait lights blink in a pattern. "Hey, there's lights outside too!" Lily crawled across the bed for a better view of the window.

Venus looked, and saw the downtown area was lit up for the night. "Ah yeah, that's the Downtown Disney District. It's where a lot of shops and restaurants are at. Movie theaters too."

"Can we see a movie?"

She giggled at her cuteness. "Sorry, honey; we won't have time. Besides, we have theaters at home."

Finn peeked in the room, and saw his favorite girls on the bed. "Hey, there are my princesses." He sat next to Venus, and kissed her head. "What're you ladies doing?" He ruffled Lily's hair, making her giggle.

"Just relaxing a little until our reservation time," His wife answered, her head on his shoulder.

"Daddy, the picture lights up!" Lily crawled up to the wooden portrait, which was turned off. Venus turned it back on, so her husband could see it in action.

"Ah, nice," He smiled, "Pretty."

A while later, it was time to get ready for dinner time at Steakhouse 55. "Okay everyone, get ready for dinner," Ronin called out through the suite, so they all could hear. "Dress nice!" He was in jeans, black lace-up TOMs, and a black polo t-shirt with a subtle Mickey silhouette.

Finn went with nice jeans, his sneakers, and a jade green Mickey Mouse polo t-shirt that complimented his green eyes and orange hair, before he let Venus get Lily ready. "Daddy!" She came out a few minutes later, as Venus was getting dressed. "I'm ready!" She was in a green mermaid scales sequin dress that reached above her knees, pink Minnie Mouse bow print laceless sneakers, and a Frozen silver faux leather jacket with blue snowflakes on the sleeves and above the ruffled bottom hem.

"Wow Lilybelle, you look great," He knelt down, and kissed her cheek, "My little princess."

In the bathroom, Mars put on her black corset dress with a blue and black Alice silhouette skirt, and black and white striped Cheshire Cat flats. She then dressed Libra in a plum purple Alice in Wonderland dress with puffed sleeves and a Peter Pan collar, and over her diaper was white and orchid purple striped bloomers. On her tiny feet were light blue Mary Janes with a white ruffle and black bow at the toes. She also had a black Alice velveteen coat for extra warmth. "Oh, you look so precious!" Mars gushed. "Wait 'til Daddy sees you!"

"Alright Soren," Nod came out in jeans, checkerboard Vans, and a black Jack Skellington printed button-up t-shirt, "You can get dressed now."

"Okay, Daddy!" He obediently grabbed his nice clothes picked out for him, and ran in the bathroom after Mars was done. He changed into little khaki jeans, blue striped Mickey Mouse laceless sneakers, and a black Jack Skellington button-up t-shirt, matching his dad. He was holding his grey and red Spiderman faux leather jacket on his arm, as he ran back out in the living room. "I'm ready!"

"Well, don't you look handsome?" Nod chuckled, and ruffled his son's red hair. "Wait 'til your mommy sees you, buddy."

"I'm ready too, Daddy!" Susan bounded out of the bathroom in her maroon velvet dress with a flared skirt, and flower appliques on the bodice, black Minnie flats with silver studded bows at the toes, and a black faux leather biker jacket with pink roses.

"You look beautiful, sweetheart," Nod patted his daughter's head, and kissed her cheek.

After a minute, MK came out of the bedroom in a black Sleeping Beauty castle sequin t-shirt, a black high-low skirt, and black patent ballet flats. "You kids look great! And Soren, you're matching with Daddy! That's so cute!" She gushed. "You both look very handsome!" She rubbed her nose on Soren's, then pecked Nod's lips.

"You look beautiful," Nod complimented his wife.

"Thanks, Nod," She blushed. She didn't have a whole lot of nice clothes, so she felt more at ease.

Bomba was in jeans, black Vans, and a dark blue v-neck t-shirt with a subtle white Mickey silhouette. "Isn't she adorable in this little outfit?" Mars gushed over Libra.

"Yes she does," He chuckled, as the baby cooed.

Venus, being the last to get prepared, came out of the bathroom. "Okay, I'm ready; sorry if I took a while."

Smiling, Finn came up to her, and kissed her lips after practically hunching over, due to her short height. "Wow Venus, you look so beautiful." Her gaze averted with a shy blush on her cheeks, as she let out a meek "thanks." She was wearing a black mesh short-sleeved Disney Villains icons dress that reached her feet, with a black tank top and cycle shorts underneath the slip, a matching studded, faux leather biker jacket, and black patent Mickey ears sneakers.

"Now that we're all ready, let's head to the restaurant." Ronin led the family out of the suite, locking the door behind them after everyone was in the hallway, and they made their way to their destination.

"Grandpa, carry me!" Lily ran up to him, her arms up. Her doll was held tightly in one of her hands by an arm. Finn and Venus shared giggles of amusement at their daughter.

"Come here, kid," Ronin picked up the toddler, and they started walking again. Lily had her arms around his neck, her big green eyes blinking innocently. He felt like he was carrying a young Venus again; Lily was just like her. She was as beautiful as her mama.

After getting directions, they arrived at Steakhouse 55. "Wow, nice," MK remarked when they entered the lounge. After confirming their reservation, the family had to stay in the waiting area until a table big enough for 7 adults and 4 children was available. Ronin sat in one of the two chairs, with Lily in his lap.

Finn sat in the other chair, watching his precious baby play with, and talk to her doll about where they were. He loved her with all his heart; no man was going to steal her away from him anytime soon, or at all. "Daddy, I'm a little mermaid," She giggled as she played with her sparkly dress, admiring how it shone from the lights.

"Yes you are, cutie. You're my little mermaid."

"When do we get in?" Soren looked up at MK.

"We'll get in soon, honey," She assured him, "Are you getting hungry?"

"Uh huh."

"Me too," Susan added.

Venus came up to the chair her husband sat in, and leaned down a bit. "Can you make a little room?" She smirked.

Finn shrugged with a playful smirk back at his wife. "I can do this." He lifted her up in a bridal style, and set her on his lap as she laughed.

"Don't get too rowdy there, guys," Mars teased them, "We're in public, and with our kids."

"We know," Venus giggled, and laid on Finn's shoulder.

"You really do look beautiful, V," He kissed her forehead, and held her closer.

"Thanks."

Soon, they were able to get a table to eat at, along with a high chair for Libra to sit in next to her mommy. "A waiter will come momentarily to take your orders. Have a magical night."

"Thank you," Ronin nodded, and the maitre`d left them be. Soon, they were able to order their meals, and the adults washed up in the restrooms, helping the kids.

From her spot between her daddy and her grandpa, Lily started gazing at the pictures of delicious food on one of their menus, in the dessert page, with intense focus. Finn smiled as he watched her; she was so precious. "What're you looking at there, princess?" He asked her.

"The picture the lady gave me," She answered, glancing up at him with her large, green eyes, "These look yummy!"

"Well, I don't think your tummy will be able to contain all that," He poked her belly over her dress, and she giggled, dropping the menu on the table.

"You hungry, Libra?" Mars cooed. "Are you hungry, sweetie?" Libra giggled, as she got a kiss on her cheek. "Here you go." The pale redhead gave her a bottle from her purse; the baby started drinking the milk out of it, feeling satisfied. "You cutie."

"She's a cutie, because she looks like you," Bomba smirked.

Mars blushed shyly at that. "No, she looks like you."

"I hope she grows up to look like you. If she looks like me, I'd feel bad for her."

"Oh, stop it," She shook her head, "Don't insult yourself. You're very handsome." She pecked his lips.

"Can we get dessert, Daddy?" Susan looked up at Nod.

"We'll see," He replied, "If we all aren't full from our meals, and if you behave, we'll get dessert."

"Yay!" Soren cheered.

Ronin smirked at his only grandson. It was like Nod was a little boy again; they were so much alike.

"Daddy, I'm hungry," Lily whined.

"I know, Lilybelle; I'm hungry too," Finn patted her shoulder.

"I wanna eat now."

"Our food will come soon."

"I wanna eat now!" She suddenly yelled, surprising the rest of the family.

"Lily," Finn scolded her before she could make a bigger fuss, "You need to be patient, and wait for our food to come. Now behave yourself, or you won't get dessert." She looked at the table silently, pouting. "It won't be long, sweetheart. Our food will be here before you know it." He kissed her cheek. "Can you be a good girl, for me and Mommy?" Venus looked at their daughter with him.

"Okay," She gave in."

"Good," He smiled, and rubbed his nose in her soft, orange hair, making her giggle.

Before long, their waiter came to their table, with their orders on the cart. "Okay, I have your fresh fish with macaroni and cheese aside," He set the plate in front of MK with her help, as she showed gratitude, "A prime New York strip loin with a Yukon Gold mashed potato for you, sir," He gave it to Finn, "A 16 oz prime rib with lobster macaroni and cheese on the side," That was for Ronin; the waiter set the plate in front of him, as Lily stared, "A bone-in rib-eye," Nod helped set the plate down, "A cold water lobster tail for you, ma'am," He set the plate in front of Mars, "A little gem lettuce salad," Bomba helped set the bowl down, "And some onion soup au Gratin for you," He concluded with giving Venus her soup. "And who here ordered the California chicken pot pie?"

"Me! Me! Me!" Lily bounced in her seat, as Finn took the plate.

"Here you go, sweetie."

"Thank you!" She turned to the waiter.

"You're very welcome, little one."

"I'm not little! I'm a big girl!"

"Ah," He chuckled with Finn, "And who had the two Jr. Filet Mignons?"

"We did!" Soren and Susan replied together. MK and Nod gave them their plates. "Thanks!"

"Anytime, kids. Oh, and here's your baby food, ma'am," He gave Mars the cup of apple flavored baby food for Libra.

"Thanks!" She opened the cup, scooped out a spoonful, and turned to her baby. "Libra, open up." She stared cluelessly at the spoon with her large, teal eyes. "Come on, baby. Here comes the train; choo-choo!" When Libra opened her mouth, Mars carefully stuck the spoon in. "Mmm, yummy! Now Mommy's gotta eat, sweetie." She dug into her lobster tail, as Bomba ate his salad. As she ate, she made sure to give Libra spoonfuls of baby food, to keep her nourished.

"How's your pot pie, Lily?" Finn asked his daughter.

"Yummy!" She replied, eating quite messily. The twins were enjoying their potatoes, satisfying their empty tummies, as MK and Nod ate their fish with mac n' cheese and bone-in rib-eye, respectively. They had to use a little convincing to get the twins to eat their carrots.

As Ronin ate his lobster mac n' cheese, he noticed that his ginger granddaughter was staring at his food, as she ate hers. He smirked as her gaze stayed locked on his plate; she was barely even blinking. "You want to try a bit of this?" He offered to her.

"Uh huh," She nodded, as Finn and Venus turned to them.

Ronin used her little spoon to scoop out a small amount, being sure everything was in there (mac, cheese, lobster, black truffles), and gave it to her. "Here you go." He was amused when she ate off the spoon without taking it.

"Thank you!" She grinned with her mouth full, then chewed it up. When she grimaced humorously at the weird tastes, Finn and Venus couldn't help but laugh, as Ronin's smile grew. "That tastes weird." Venus giggled in her fist; she was so adorable.

"Just eat your pie, honey," Finn kissed her hair through his chuckles.

Before long, everyone was finished, and decided that they weren't full enough. "Okay, I'll go ahead and take your plates," The waiter put their empty, but dirty dishes on the cart. "Would you like some dessert?"

"Yeah!" Soren, Susan, and Lily all answered simultaneously.

"Yes, please. We'll all share the 24-layer chocolate cake," Nod decided, "It should fill us all up."

"Okay, coming right up," The waiter wrote down their order, then headed back to the kitchen, to have their dishes washed.

"Yay, chocl-y cake!" Lily cheered, then drank out of her miniature water bottle that went with her meal.

"Yep, we're having chocolate cake," Finn smiled at her, and kissed her cheek, as Ronin tussled her hair.

"You look very pretty, Susan," MK looked down at her daughter, briefly fingering at the skirt of her dress.

"Thanks, Mommy. You're pretty too."

"She's right," Nod chuckled, and Soren nodded, as MK blushed.

"Thanks, guys."

Before long, their waiter came to their table with a super-tall slice of chocolate cake on the cart, ready for consumption. Lily and the twins gawked in awe, with wide eyes and dropped jaws, as he set it on the table for them. "Okay, here's your 24-layer chocolate cake. You all enjoy." He chuckled at the kids' amazement, then left the family be. The three children couldn't stop staring; the cake had to have been a foot tall!

"Okay, let's divide this thing up into even pieces." Ronin laid the cake on its side, then used a knife to cut it into smaller pieces, trying to be as even as possible, before there were 11 pieces. He then handed them out, each family member receiving one piece, including Libra. "Enjoy."

Mars took Libra's piece, scooping a spoonful out of it, then fed it to her. "There you go, sweetie. Mmm, yummy!" She then ate her own, relishing the wonderful taste.

Lily and the twins were gobbling theirs at quite a fast pace, getting their hands and faces messy. "Lily, slow down," Finn laughed as he ate his piece, "You'll get a tummy-ache if you eat too fast."

"Listen to Uncle Finn, you two," Nod turned to the twins, as they were spilling crumbs on their clothes, "Take it easy there."

"Oh, this is so good!" Venus moaned delightfully. "I love dark chocolate!"

"I got mint," Finn turned to her.

"Your favorite?"

"Yep; my breath ought to smell pretty good after I finish this."

She shook her head at that. "Don't count on it, stink-breath." She giggled through her bite when Finn gave her a playful look. "You're brushing your teeth after this, mister."

"Fine," He playfully pouted.

"Yeah, brush your teeth, Daddy!" Lily joined in.

"See? She knows," Venus joked, as he tried not to laugh.

"I know, I know," He snickered, as he kept eating. "Girls," He playfully muttered under his breath, but was ignored.

After everyone finished their dessert, the bill was paid (with the adults splitting the check evenly), and the family stood up to leave. Ronin looked down when he felt a little hand tug on his wrist; it was Lily, with a pleading facial expression. "Alright, come here." He lifted her out of the chair, and the family left the restaurant. The little ginger's large, green eyes drooped as she laid on Ronin's shoulder, clutching her doll close.

When they entered the lobby, the same clerk that checked them in was still behind the front desk. "Hey!" She greeted them. "Did you enjoy your meal?"

"Very much," Finn nodded, "The kids loved Steakhouse 55; we all did."

"Thanks for recommending it," Nod added, "We'll leave a review."

"Anytime! Have a magical night!"

"Thanks!" MK waved her hand that wasn't holding her son's, as they arrived at the elevator.

In their suite, Lily was on the verge of falling asleep, as Ronin set her on the couch. "Okay, time to change into our matching Pjs!" Venus announced.

"Yay!" Lily cheered.

Soon, they were all wearing said pjs. The men (Nod, Finn, Bomba, even Ronin) wore black long-sleeved shirts with black/white striped pants, orange sleeves and neckline, a white Mickey face, and the word "Boo" in white letters. Soren's were the same, only the sleeves were striped with orange cuffs, which were also on his pants. Susan and Lily were both wearing a Minnie Mouse nightshirt with a Minnie "Boo" graphic, orange piplining, and short, black/white striped sleeves. Baby Libra was in a long-sleeved shirt with the same Minnie graphic design, and black/white striped sleeves that had orange cuffs and neckline, while the pants were orange with white polka dots. The women (MK, Venus, Mars) were in black Minnie Mouse "Boo" t-shirts with striped sleeves, an orange neckline, and orange pants that matched Libra's.

"We all look great!" Venus exclaimed. "We should take a picture!"

"I'm on it," Nod set up a camera in front of the bed closest to the window, "Okay everyone, gather up! You too, kids!" After everybody was on the bed, he set the timer for a few seconds, then quickly took position next to MK, so they leaned into each other. The kids were in front of the adults, so they would be easily seen. "Alright everyone, say cheese!"

"Cheese!" They all smiled, as the camera snapped the picture.

"Okay, let's see how it looks." Nod checked the picture, and smiled at the result. "Looks good!" The camera was passed around, so all the adults could voice their opinion; they all loved it. "Okay, now you all can scatter," He joked.

Bomba looked to the bed, and noticed that the kids were the only ones left; this was a great opportunity for more pictures of them. "Hey, Lily? Can I get a photo of you and Libra together?"

"Okay!" She nodded enthusiastically; she grabbed the baby under her arms, and tried to pull her closer. "Come here, Libra!"

"Careful with her," Bomba helped get Libra close enough to the toddler, then grabbed the camera off the tripod. "Okay sweetheart, smile!" Lily held Libra to her chest, and flashed a bright grin, as the picture was taken. "Perfect! Thanks, Lily." He couldn't help but laugh when he noticed that in the picture, Libra wasn't smiling at all; if anything, she had kind of a blank expression.

"I want a picture with Libra!" Soren piped up.

"Okay buddy, you'll get one. Lily, let Soren take her." Lily crawled away, as her cousin lugged Libra in his lap. She seemed to look more comfortable with him. "Okay Soren, give me a big smile." The little boy smiled for the camera, as to Bomba's surprise, Libra smiled too! "That looks great!" He showed it to Soren, who loved the results. "Who's next?" After Susan had her picture taken with the baby, she wanted one with her little cousin. "Okay Lily, you sit with Susan."

"Okay!" The little ginger practically plopped in the redhead's lap.

"Alright girls, smile!" The picture turned out adorable like the others, with both little girls smiling brightly in their matching nightshirts. "You twins are next; Soren, come here and give Susan a hug." He crawled over to his sister, and pulled her into a side embrace. "Perfect; now both of you, give me a big smile!" The both obliged, and the photo was precious.

"What's happening here?" Mars wondered aloud, as she walked in the room.

"Just taking pictures of the kids while they're still kids." She giggled at that. "They're all adorable; come look." He gave the camera to her.

"Aww!" She gushed. "They are! You all did good." She giggled at the one of her baby with her little niece. "Is Libra not smiling in this one?"

"Nope," He snickered, "She's not."

Before long, to the kids' disappointment, it was time for bed. Venus called dibs on the bed closest to the window, so she and Finn sat with Lily, while Ronin was on the bed closer to the door. Bomba and Mars decided on the futon couch; Libra was in the living room, already asleep in her car seat, so they wanted to stay close to her. MK and Nod squeezed in the chair by the bedroom window, with her on his lap, as Soren and Susan joined Ronin. "Okay, good night, everyone!" Nod called out, and received "good night"'s from the rest of the adults, and three of the kids. "Let's get some sleep." He and MK shared a short kiss, before she laid on his chest, and drifted off into a peaceful slumber.

Nod held her close to him, as he gazed around the room. He smiled at seeing the twins sleeping soundly in each of Ronin's arms. They were so precious; he loved them with all his heart. He carefully laid his head on MK's, and fell asleep. He hoped that his son, daughter, and nieces would have the best Halloween of their lives tomorrow. Although Libra most likely wouldn't remember it...

(A/N: I hope you liked this chapter! I was able to squeeze in a couple of cute little MK x Nod moments after billions of moments featuring Finn x Venus, and a few of Mars x Bomba. XD You know the disclaimer.
