If you still want to read, R&R and no flames.
Halloween : A collection of Digimon Horror stories
Prologue
(creative title, ne?)
by M
Welcome. Welcome, dear guests. What, you ask? Why are you all hear? I'm going to tell you a tale, a tale of horror, and mystery. Of what happened to 13 special children on a night, this night, All Hollow's Eve. A night that they could never forget. A night that will haunt them, and it will haunt you too. And now, dear guests, let the story begin....
Tale one:
Joe stood on the edge of the dock. Stripping himself of his shirt and sandals, he slowly lowered himself into the freezing water. His father would have a fit if he knew Joe was out in this weather. Still, even in October, Hawaii was really hot, that was why his parents had taken a vacation here, so the water wasn't as bad as it could have been.
He swam gracefully through the water. It was strange, a few short years ago, he didn't even know how to swim. Not, he was better then most.
'Guess having a seal for a partner pays off.' he thought to himself.
"Joe! Is that you?" he heard someone call to him from the shore.
"Yeah! It's me, Jim. Come in, the tide isn't that strong." he called back to his older brother.
"Ok!" he heard him shout back. A few seconds later he heard a splash signaling that Jim had entered the water.
Joe backstroked a little in towards the shore, when his head hit something soft, and cold.
"Jim?" he asked, wondering how his brother could have gotten this far out so quickly.
"What?" a voice called from a distance away.
'If Jim's there, then who...' Joe thought, turning around in the water. He felt his blood run colder then the water he was swimming in. Next to him was the body, or what little was left of it, of a female swimmer.
"Aaahhhhhh!!!!!!!!" Joe screamed at the top of his lungs.
"What is it, Joe?" Jim asked, swimming up to his younger brother.
"Th-this." Joe stammered, pointing to the corpse.
Jim stared for a moment, "Oh gods...... Joe, we should go , now!"
Joe didn't argue as he and his brother set off for the shore.
Halfway there, Jim suddenly jerked up and down and started shaking.
Joe stopped and turned, "What's wrong, Jim?"
"I-It's my leg." Jim stammered, barely above a whisper.
"What about it?" Joe asked, not fully understanding what was going on.
"It's gone." Jim said, voice full of fear, "Joe, get out of here, now!"
"Bu-but what do you meant? What abou-"
"Dammit, NOW!!!!" Jim screamed, then, all of a sudden, he was jerked to the right, then the left, "Swim Joe!!"
Joe made a break for the sandy shoreline, going at top speed. Behind him, he could heard the sound of churning, splashing water, as well as his brother's screams of pain.
He hit the beach and immanently turned around. The last he saw of his brother was Jim's struggling form attempting to hold on to a buoy, before he was dragged under the water in a churning swirl of blood.
Tale two:
Izzy typed away at his computer, oblivious to the children that occasionally ran by the door asking for candy. He really didn't like Halloween. It was pretty pointless if you asked him. All you did was dress up in some silly costume and run around trying to get candy. Besides, with all these kids coming to the door there was no way he could concentrate on his computer. He really wished his mother and father were home, they would answer the door for him. Unfortunately, his parents were out to dinner, but they should be home any time now. That was good.
The phone rang in the living room.
Izzy sighed, briefly halting his web surfing to pick it up. Well, at least it wasn't the door bell.
"Hello?" he asked, picking up the receiver and holding it up to his ear.
"Hello? Who is this?" a voice asked back.
"Who are you looking for?" Izzy asked, trying to be polite, although the voice did seem to creep him out a bit.
"I don't know." the voice answered.
Izzy sighed, some stupid prank call, "Well, that happens." he said sarcastically before hanging up. He walked back for his bedroom, he didn't have time for some jackass calling him to ask stupid questions. Just as he reached the doorframe, though, the phone started ringing again.
He groaned and headed back, "Hello?" he asked, exasperated.
"I just wanted to say I'm sorry for calling you before." the same voice responded.
"Ummm....ok. Whatever." Izzy started to hang up.
"No! Wait!" the voice called, "It would be nice to get to know you, I don't have many friends."
'Well, with a personality like that I can understand why.' Izzy thought.
"Well, I'm going to be doing something so you won't really get that much of a conversation." he said, 'Please hang up. Please.'
"That's ok."
'Damn.'
"Fine. If you insist." Izzy picked up the cordless and walked into his bedroom. Fortunately, the computer had not signed him off. He started typing away at his keyboard.
"What's that noise in the background?" the voice inquired.
"My computer." Izzy answered, irritated. What was this? Twenty questions?
"I see you like to work on your computer."
Izzy's eyes widened in shock, did this guy just ask what he thought he did? "What did you say?" he asked, a little above a whisper.
"You like computers?"
"That's not what you said." Izzy stated, his voice showing fear, "I-I gotta go now."
"But-" Izzy slammed down the phone. It rang again.
Izzy grabbed the phone again, he was seriously missing those trick-or-treaters right about now, "Listen up you jerk-!" Izzy started.
"No! You listen to me, you little brat! Hang up on me again and your going to regret it!" the voice yelled from the other end of the connection.
"Don't tell m-me what to do!" Izzy trembled, "I-I'll call the cops."
The voice on the other end laughed, and Izzy felt his blood run cold from what the stranger said next, "They could never make it in time."
'Oh gods.....he's right outside.' Izzy thought, terrified.
The voice laughed, as if reading the 13-year-olds mind, "Turn on the lights." it instructed.
Izzy just stood there, paranoid.
"I said TURN THEM ON!!!" the voice shouted.
He jerked up, and slowly, Izzy reached with a shaking hand for the outside light switch. He eventually found it and flipped it on.
He gasped in fear and surprise at what he saw.
Tale three:
Can't even shout
Can't even cry
The gentlemen are coming by
Looking in windows
Knocking on doors
Their going to take seven
And they might take yours
Can't call your mom
Can't say a word
Your going to die screaming
But you won't be heard
"You know, Kari?" T.K. asked, "This is the first Halloween that I haven't gone trick-or-treating."
"I'm sorry." Kari apologized, "I'm keeping you here, aren't I? I'll go trick-or-treating with you, that is, if you don't think your a little old."
T.K. sputtered for a moment, "I-I don't care about that! I perfectly fine staying home this Halloween!"
Kari smiled, "I'm glad you feel that way."
'Perfect.' she thought, 'I've gotten rid of Davis and now that T.K. won't bug me anymore about stupid candy, everything will go according to plan.'
Little did she know how wrong she was.
Tale four:
"Can you go look for one, kids?" Mr. Kamiya asked Tai and Sora, while he and the other parents looked at the car.
"Sure, Dad." Tai answered, "Come on Sora."
"Ok."
The Kamiya's had been going on an American road trip for fall break. Kari had decided to stay over at T.K.'s place for Halloween, though, so , after much insisting, Tai had finally convinced his parents to bring Sora and her mother along with them. Everything had seemed to be going along well, this was, until the car had broken down at night somewhere in the middle of California. Now, the grown-ups were working on fixing the vehicle up and he and Sora were stuck looking for a town, or a gas station, or well, something.
The two headed down the road, where they thought they had seen some distant lights. As they moved closer to their destination they found that they were right. It was a fairly large, but a little beat up looking town.
"Well, I guess this is the best place to start looking for a repair man." Tai stated.
Sora shivered, "I don't know. this place gives me the creeps."
"Don't be so scary, Sora." Tai said, smiling, "It's just dark and all. After all we've been through, don't tell me your afraid of this place."
She shook her head, defensively, "Am not! I just meant something doesn't feel right about this, like we're being watched."
Tai shook his head, "No way. Come on, we don't want to keep our parents waiting."
He walked toward the city, Sora following behind him, reluctantly.
As they entered, they passed a sign that read, 'Welcome to Raccoon City'.
Tale five:
"Matt, guess what?" Mr. Ishida asked his oldest son.
"What dad?"
"For Halloween, I got you the best gift ever!"
"Ummm.....I think your getting this confused with Christmas, or my birthday."
"No...we're going to go on a father-son trip to the scariest place there is."
"Saban Headquarters?"
"No, Sleepy Hallow!"
Matt fell out of his chair, "What?! That's all the way in America!! And what's so 'scary' about it anyway? Unless your afraid of complete seclusion."
If only that was his only problem during his stay.
Tale six:
"I don't see why we're here. And I really don't see why I'm here while Kari's home with T.J. and not me!!" Davis whined.
"Oh, be quiet." Yolie sighed, "We're here to meet up with Tai and Sora. They should be here from California in a few days and you know we decided that the three of us would be here waiting for them. That way we can use my uncle's frequent flyer miles to get back home."
"But why Texas?" Davis asked.
"Like I said before, certain restrictions apply."
"You really should stop complaining, Davis." Cody said to the older boy, "We're here. Yolie is watching me while my parents are away do I have to come, but I don't remember anyone asking you to accompany us, Davis."
"Yeah but...." Davis trailed off.
"But what?" Cody prodded.
"Kari insisted that he should come, and you know how he feels about Kari." Yolie answered for him.
"Oh."
"Hey, what's going on over there?" Davis asked, noticing two covered stretchers being wheeled into the morgue.
Curious, the trio ran up the a man dressed in black, with a strange bowl-like haircut who seemed to be instructing everyone, "What happened?" they asked.
He just looked at then and sighed, "Bats."
Tale seven:
"Congratulations, Mimi." Mrs. Dutch told the pink-haired girl.
Mimi smiled looking at her perfect test, biology was a breeze for her.
"Hey, Mimi." Josh Wrighter whispered from the desk next to hers, "What are you going to be for Halloween? I'm going as the Grim Reaper." he said, grinning.
Mimi sighed, boys...... "I don't know to tell you the truth." she answered, sincerely.
"Come on! There are only a few days left. How about you go as a princess?" he suggested, smiling " I know you would make a great one."
She shook her head, remembering her last experience, "It's not a fun as it looks." she said, "I was thinking maybe a traditional Japanese woman, or perhaps a beautiful bride, in a long flowing white dress, with a handsome groom be my side......." she sighed, drifting off into one of her own fantasies.
"Mimi? Mimi!!" Josh called, snapping her back into reality.
"huh? what?" she turned red, "Oh...sorry."
He laughed, "That's ok. Hey, I was wondering, you want to go trick-or-treating with me?" he asked.
"A bride going out with Death? Sounds like fun." she said, " But Mary and Michel are coming too, if you don't mind."
Josh thought about Mimi's best friend and the blond boy who Mimi seemed to be close with, "Sure, why not?"
She smiled, "Great! I'll see at eight, my place?"
"It's a date."
Mimi headed home, taking the ferry across the bay. it was so much better then taking that stuffy old subway, and today, the sky looked perfect. She walked up to the rail and stared into the water. It wasn't that clean. Much dirtier then the water back in Japan, but this was New York, what else could be expected?
Her mind drifted back to the good old days with Tai, Izzy, Sora, and all the others. She sure missed them. It almost seemed like yesterday that they had split apart, although it had to have been at least a few years now.
She was, for the second time that day, interrupted from her thoughts, but this time more violently. The ferry jerked, as if something had hit it, and everyone aboard gave a gasp of surprise.
The same force hit the boat again, from the side and the next thing Mimi knew the boat had flipped and she was being flung into the cold, uninviting water.
Tale eight:
"Mother. Father. I don't see the relevancy in any of this. Why are we going there anyway?" Ken asked his parents, annoyed.
"Because, it should be educational for you." his mother answered, "And besides, Ken dear, it's a great honor to be invited here, it's very dangerous."
'Whatever.' the boy thought, ' They probably just invited me here for publicity. Having the 'boy genius' should be great for whatever their doing at this floating prison. Of course, only juveniles go around in costume on this silly day they call Halloween, I won't be missing much.'
"You know." his father stated, "On of their test subjects escaped from here a few days ago. someone has been sent here to investigate. I hope they don't get shut down, a cure for Alzheimer's disease is greatly needed."
'So that's what it's for.' Ken thought, 'I wonder how they could have pulled it off, legally. Let's see how this plays out. It could be more interesting then I thought.'
"Here we are." the pilot called over the sound of the helicopter's spinning blades, "Aquatica."
so...good, ok, it just plain sucks? As I said before, your review counts. ^^
