The party is getting started! Some people are starting to realize that they shouldn't have drank the punch. Once drunk by two people, the potion in the punch activates and the two people swap bodies.

Oh bother! It'll all get sorted in the morning, just keep on grooving.

Time to get in one last dance and stumble home at midnight!

Hunter was never one to turn down punch, especially at a dance where it stood a good chance of being spiked, and naturally she had been amused by the body swapping spell that came along with it. Even though she had only switched her body with Michi, it had been enough to keep her amused for the evening, and she even used the opportunity to hit on Mack, just to see what she would do. Her friend's face had been priceless, and the fact that she was in Michi's body was probably the only thing that saved Hunter from getting the crap beat out of her for the joke.

By the time that the dance was over and things were winding down, the spell was wearing off for most people, Michi and Hunter included. It was Hunter's idea to leave Izzy with his auntie Mack, her second surprise for her friend that night, but she promised that they wouldn't be long. It wasn't often that she and Michi got moments alone anymore, and she had to take advantage of any chance she got. Tonight had been nice, and she wanted to make it nicer.

She wasn't phased by how dark the grounds were, or the light fog that seemed to circle their feet as they got closer to the woods. She knew that the woods weren't necessarily safe, but she could handle it. Her wand was on her if she needed it, but nothing had ever bothered her out there in the past, and it wasn't a full moon. They'd be fine. "Scared, ain'tcha?" Hunter teased, as she stopped them suddenly in their pace. They had been making their way along a familiar path through the woods, to a place they often had parties during the year. It was empty tonight, but they were only half way there. She was grinning devilishly, her eyebrows raised at her fiancee. "Don't worry, baby, I'll protect you," she informed her, pushing Michi back against one of the trees behind her.

"You damn well know I am," she muttered, squeezing Hunter's hand a little. She wasn't normally one to be jumpy but leaving Izzy with his aunties and wandering off into the woods just seemed like a bad idea on Halloween. "All the weirdos and freaks are out," she grinned as Hunter pushed her against the tree.

She leaned forward through, catching Hunter's lips. "I trust ya though Hunt, and I know with all yer trainin' we're gonna be just fine." She pushed a lock of Hunter's hair behind her ear and smiled adoringly. "I can't wait to get married," she said lightly. Now that they were parents and things had settled down a little with Isamu, it was easier to dream about getting in a wedding dress and walking down an aisle. It had always been there, just in the back of her head but she could finally see it, imagine it.

"We left our kid with all of the weirdos and freaks," Hunter snorted back, just barely controlling her giggles as she met Michi in a kiss. She tilted her head into the other girl's hand as she brushed her hair behind her ear, and she nodded in agreement. "Me either," she admitted. "Never thought I'd say that. Me, gettin' married.. but you're worth it."

She really hadn't ever thought about marriage before Michi. Marriage had always been something that her parents expected out of her, and expected to moderate and control for her. But she wanted this for herself, and they couldn't control that. Izzy wasn't why, but he had solidified it for her, what she wanted in her life. The fact that her marriage to Michi would piss her mother and father off was like icing on the cake.

"I wouldn't let anything happen to my wifey," Hunt assured her, dipping her head down and kissing the younger girl's neck, tipping her chin up.

Michi giggled into Hunter's kiss. "You can say that again," she grinned. She closed her eyes contentedly as Hunter began kissing her neck, rubbing the other girl's back. "I never thought I'd be this happy to let someone sweep me away the way you have."

"I know you wouldn't," she sighed happily. "Just like I wouldn't let anything happen to you." It was like they were in their own little happy bubble, completely oblivious to anything else happening in the world around them. Too busy with each other to notice those things that crept around them in the dark night.

"I know, I'm a catch," Hunter chuckled against Michi's neck, kissing along the other girl's jawline, working her way up to her ear. She was glad that Mack had agreed with take Izzy home and get him settled in for the night, they needed time alone like this. Iz was a good baby mostly, but Hunter spent more time up in the middle of the night still than she would prefer, and privacy was almost nonexistent. Even with his own room, she found that she even more than Michi usually ended up taking him into their room with them anyway.

But as much as she loved her little son's company, his absence was much appreciated for the time being. She was definitely absorbed in Michi, and the act of trying to seduce her, oblivious as ever even as someone or something began to creep closer, just over her shoulder. "You think ya wiggle out of them shorts for me?"

"You really are," she giggled, slipping her hand up under the fabric of Hunter's shirt and teasing gently at her girlfriend's breasts with a devilish smile. She was glad for the moment that Mack and Tatum had taken Izzy and was about to wiggle out of her shorts just as Hunter had asked when she heard a loud crack behind Hunter. She peeked over the other girl's shoulder and what she saw had her go pale.

She tried to scream but nothing came out. She knew she had to do something though so she pointed over Hunter's shoulder at the horror that was slowly creeping through the woods toward them. With it's arms hanging at it's sides and it's clearly broken neck at an odd angle, Michi would have thought it almost comical except for the fact that she had read about Inferi and she knew that they were real.
