Domino hesitated again, looking at Pyxis who was cool because he wasn't so tall and they would need to be friends because Domino didn't have a lot of friends (see being home schooled....) and the other boy liked candy and Domino was a candy rot imp and there was just TOO MANY FACTORS AS TO WHY HIM AND PYXIS SHOULDN'T BE FRIENDS.
"Fine, Mr. Fluffy tall a*****e can chill with us. I guess he can be useful somewhere along the way." He slapped the dog's hands away when they threatened his space bubble, and worst threatened to throw him back to the creatures, his eye widened but quickly went back to a glare should the werewolf attempt it. "I won't hesitate to bring you down to my level Fluffy." Like literally, he would take you Hairwolf. Size be damned!
"Also I should mention that...I like your guys styles. Even with Mr. Fluffy the tall a*****e over there." Neon digs all around. Domino approved. He had somewhere along the way moved closer to the ghost rather then the werewolf.
At the noting of punching, Domino was going to show Pyxis just how amazing he was by...jumping at the sight of a shadow going after candy. "Pyxis watch your goods!" And shoved the ghost away from the thing instead.

Hairwolf smiled as he felt an arm wrap round him, draping his own arm over Pyxis’ shoulders in return and giving Domino a very pointed look. He wasn’t going anywhere. And he clearly had no intentions of making introductions, though whether it was intentional or he just forgot, no one would ever know.
“Sounds swell to me, lil doggies. Punching’s my specialty.” It wasn’t really. Singing was his specialty; he was an excellent howler. And he was pretty good-looking but.... He wasn't really sure how that related to punching. But some dramatic air punching always enhanced good vocals so, he figured, close enough. As though to prove his point he made a fist, a fist that definitely didn’t seem like it was sort of aimed in Domino’s direction. Nope, it definitely didn’t.
“Yeah, you guys have definitely got some kickin’ threads going on," he couldn't help but concede. "Neon is really stellar. Where do you guys shop? If you are ever down by...” He rattled off some questionable directions and the name of a couple stores, not really paying attention as Domino pushed Pyxis out of harm's way. He sort of just stood there with goofy grin on his face. What a space cadet. He even forgot to actually punch anything.
"What's with all the kerfuffle?" he asked Domino curiously, when he noticed the ghost had been forcibly moved. "It's just candy. You shouldn't go around pushing people, especially your brothers in arms, dude." He waggled a finger at him, tutting disapprovingly.
But it was really hard to take him seriously when that stupid grin seemed glued to his face.

Alastair's strike had totally missed, but at least it seemed to frighten the creature away from his goodies. The lion was about to gather his things and leave when the dog tumbled over the bench and crashed into him. He hit the ground with a thud and a crunch. A crunch? That better not be the sound of his new toys getting crushed.
"Get off." With a snarl, Alastair shoved the stranger and got to his feet to brush any dirt, imaginary or otherwise, off of his clothing. "If you're responsible for any damage-" His furious warning was cut short as he noticed the other demon's eyes were watering. Alastair immediately became uncomfortable. He offered a subtle grunt as he finished adjusting his clothes. "Don't you cry. Get up off the floor and-"
Several of the shadowlings bounced too close to Alastair's bags, causing the demon to slash at them again. "Where are all these things coming from?!"

The fact that they were all wearing varying degrees of the very fashionable 'neon' had completely escaped Pyxis until Domino made mention of it. How fortuitous he was to join a group of such fashion-forward fighters! Maybe the creatures attacking them would retreat from shame. Or run off to buy their own pretty clothes.
"Yeeeeah, I like all of your clothes too! We should go shopping sometime after this! Yeah, neon! And stellar! You make a lot of really good words." To solidify the compliment, the pair of his fellow shadow-fighters each got a thumbs up.
"My...goods...?" He'd just begun to look in the vague direction of down to see what in Halloween Domino was talking about when a shove from the boil sent him stumbling to the side, a very undignified squeak escaping him. After fighting to regain his balance, he gave the hoodied boil a look that usually only came from kicked minipets. They'd shared candy camaraderie. Why had he betrayed him so soon?
"Maybe we should try to punch um....the...you know...." Awkwardly, he gestured towards the approaching shadowlings. Teamwork could use some suggestions sometimes, right? He considered mentioning that they should follow Sir Strelka's lead on the punching, since it was his specialty, but he supposed he could save that for later. Just in case the novel idea of 'kill the things that keep eating all of the everything' didn't work.

A boil just couldn't be allowed to shop the maul for skellyphone charms in peace.
When the shadowlings showed up, Thannas was, at best, confused by their presence. It did not take him long to deduce that the little fellows were up to no good, mind. This wasn't the first maul take-over that the Fae-Hound had been exposed to. Releasing a long, whuffling sigh, he scanned the area with his good eye, tail-tip twitching nervously as the pup attempted to locate allies.
Well those kids in neon seemed as good as any. Some of them at least, were brave enough to give the awkwardly rotund pests what they deserved. Ears swiveling to devote his full attention to the advancing onslaught of beady-eyed monsterlings, Than then dove forward with a diminutive growl, sprinting right past the clustered group of student-aged Halloweeners, and very nearly bowling over Pyxis in the process. "EXCUUUUUUUUUSE THAN!"
And then he did his best to kick one of the Shadowlings in their less than defined nasal regions.
Oh. Well. That hadn't gone badly at all!
Further kicks proved that the little guys just seemed to...dissipate. Well.
That was disappointing.

"JACKDAMNIT I WAS HAVING A REALLY NICE TIME AND--"
A black thing flew past a boil, as a visibly bothered bandaged boil appeared, trying to keep his shopping bag from the reach of their new friends.
"Oh, maybe this is what they were talking about when they said all this fun stuff was going on in Amityville." Ixel said to nobody in particular, musing out loud to himself. He lifted his arm to pull a bandage tighter with his teeth, his hands busy with the black creatures and his bag. Couldnt have his bandages coming loose, he reflected, making sure that they were all in the right places.

It was supposed to be a routine trip down to The Maul to pick out something nice for the visit to Yvette's Great Grand Aunt the coming week. Something that Yvette had been procrastinating and putting off for the longest time until she eventually had no choice but to cave in view of the impending incessant nagging from her mother. Oh well, it wasn't as if she couldn't take a couple of detours to check out what else was new in some of the shops that she tended to frequent.
An hour later, the ghoul was stepping out of one of these shops, her original purpose for being at The Maul momentarily forgotten as expected before she gradually came to the realization that something was not quite right with the chaos and screams that rang throughout the establishment. A special event of sorts? Didn't seem like one either. She flicked her tail at a couple of the shadowlings that were coming at her, a scowl crossing her features as she barely managed to keep them away though not quite defeating any of them... yet.

Sand slid into the battle, not quite used to walking yet. You could see that he was trying to mimic the way the other people he'd seen moved, but hadn't quite gotten the idea of knees down yet. His legs would move more like limp noodles to get him forward, lifting and then whipping outwards until the bottom (foot, he thought, it was supposed to be a foot) of the leg touched the ground again.
He was so busy watching his walking that he stumbled into one of the fighters before noticing it, and pulled back, a curious look on his face and a giant "?" over his head, which changed into a "!" as he saw that they were surrounded.
Wait, those weren't friends? He was supposed to attack them?

"What are these things?", Kari gasped as the small creature she'd taken a swing at dodged backwards out of her reach. Their compact nature was making it difficult to actually hit them. It vexed the ghoul that one of her prized characteristics was being used against her.
"Alright, no more playing around", she murmured, rushing her minuscule opponent.

There was just no end to these things, wasn't there? Yvette found herself wondering at the back of her mind, already aiming to at least dodge the shadowlings by now after another couple of failed attempts at a combination of smacking, punching and kicking them... just about anything so long as they left her alone so that she could resume what she was supposed to do here at The Maul and then get herself home.
She probably had a rather queer figure to thank when the out of the blue though unintentional collision between it and herself sent her flailing arms directly in the path of one of the shadowlings and dusted it. Pausing to glance curiously at the sand figure, she heaved a sigh of relief at the realization that it wasn't another one of the shadowlings. "Don't know what they are but it looks like they are trouble." She attempted explaining before turning her attention back to the shadowlings surrounding them again.

"Ach du liebe Zeit!"
A very young looking and small sized boil was glaring, red eyes burning with annoyance at the black creature that tugged on his shopping bag, one that contained a new pair of black boots that would add at least three inches to his height.
He would not, under any circumstances, let these boots be stolen. They were his, jack damnit. HIS. And almost more importantly, they were going to make him taller.
With a hiss through the fangs that barely peeked over his bottom lip, Mathias kicked at the thing, with a boot that only added a mere two and a half inches to his height, but effectively sent the creature backwards and dissipating? into a swirls of inky black.
With a smirk, he spat in it's direction, then turned to be on his way, though he found himself with yet another of the blacked out beings with shining yellow eyes blocking his path.
"Get out of my vay!" He snapped, his accent thick, as he swung his bag at the creatures head, leveling it just as easily as he had the first, though not before it managed to take a quick swipe at him.
The boil stopped to have a quick glance around, his ears twitching in every direction as he suddenly realized that the creatures were everywhere.
This is what he got for skipping school to go shopping....

Kat's tail swishes behind her as she looks over the racks in one of the stores in the maul. She was having a pretty good day over all and had already found a few cute outfits she thought might suit her. That is until she heard the screams. Blinking she turned just in time to see several of halloween town's citizens run past the shop. They were obviously running from something and Kat's ears twitched in excitement and curiosity.
"Now what could be going on out there..." she wondered to herself as she bounced slightly in place. Unable to stand waiting she quickly exits the store and looks towards the direction the others were running from. Narrowing her glowing violet eyes she hisses at the dark shadows roiling with their own glowing eyes towards her. Her tail poofs and she lets her claws out. What she thought would be cool instead turned out to be something that would end up ruining everyone's day. So with that thought she clawed at the closest shadow creature to try to get rid of the horrid things.

Merry had thought the Maul to be an excellent source of entertainment for the afternoon.
Of course, considering this was Halloween, and upon entering the Maul and landing smack dab in the middle of what appeared to be a battle, Merry found that she had been mistaken. It wasn't the first time strangeness had plagued their town, nor would it likely be the last. Peacefulness never seemed to last long in Halloween, but at least it was never truly boring.
The chimera picked her way through the battle with an air of resigned amusement until she came upon a familiar figure kicking one of the black, mystery creatures into dissipation, and she let out a pleased chirrup before darting over.
Before she could engulf the Fae-hound in their customary greeting of a bone crushing hug she was stopped by the unexpected lunge of one of the creatures. It clawed at her, managing to leave a dainty cut on her ankle, before she smashed her hoof down hard on the thing's dark head.
Foe vanquished, she returned her temporary attention to the hound. "Than! You alright?" The most important of the pressing questions she longed to ask. "What in Jack's name are these things?" Another pressing question.

The sand boy nodded, his orange glowing eyes lighting up red--and a tiny trumpet shaped like a horn let out some tiny sand note symbols over his head as he rushed forward in a silent CHARGE!!!
Of course, he had no clue how to fight. And it showed as his fist just sort of shattered in a rain of black sand without even touching the creature he tried to hit. Fail, Sand, fail.

Still oblivious to the gravity of the situation that she was currently in, all Yvette could think of in her mind was blaming the shadow creatures for everything including landing her in hot soup when she got home late for dinner later in the evening. Mum was so going to have a field day with her nagging for sure and this was all their fault.
Bristling with anger, she let fly another punch at another one of the shadowlings only to have it contact with the air. Another miss. "Why don't you all just stay still for a bit so that I can give you a piece of my mind!" Oh well, at least it was comforting to know that she wasn't the only one having difficulties with these things since the sand boil didn't seem to be faring any better either on his end.
