Anyways just look for somebody being suspicious who has a lot of minipets.
Even though she was working on making the apathetic school counselor her mentor, she still did want to talk to someone who knew about ToTing. Hel, first, wasn’t sure where to find someone suspicious who had a lot of minipets…but then she remembered professor Malcolm. He was pretty suspicious. Teachers weren’t supposed to be that pretty. He also had a ton of minipets. She spent some time staring before deciding that the professor wasn’t the somebody she was looking for.
The ghoul huffed and ended up stomping off. Her feet carried her around and before she knew it, she was standing in a park of sorts. Hel scratched her jaw idly and her brows furrowed as she looked around, and then squinted. There were an awful lot of bird minis here…

Bird minipets in different enclosures, divided by species; it was unusually quiet today, the number of visitors having dropped since a certain person decided to make the bird park his hangout. There were a number of young couples walking around, and a few parents with their scarelings, but nobody was being particularly loud... Until someone started to scream.
It seemed like a boil had been hit in the face by an angry bird - a red one - and had promptly passed out. His ghoulfriend was making a fuss, yelling for help- And another red angry bird went flying from the nearby enclosure, hitting her on the back of her head.
She passed out too.

Hel wasn’t picking up on anything out of the norm here. So what if there were a lot of birds here? It was a park with trees! It was only natural for birds to be here.
What wasn’t natural, though, was the yelling that was suddenly silenced…by a bird to the head.
Hel paused, and then went wide eyed as a ghoul was knocked out too after fussing. Woah. Hel’s head whipped around widely as she tried to locate where the birds had been thrown from. “…Oi!” She cried out. “Bird thrower!” She called out and then waited…tensing to get ready to dodge.

SQUAWWWWWWWWWWWWK.
A blue bird came flying in Hel's direction; as it closed in, however, Hel would realize that there were actually three of them, and tears were practically flowing out their eyes as they soared at her face.
They did not come willingly.

Hel let out a yelp as three birdy projectiles came her way.
She ducked as the first two went by…and unfortunately for the third one, grabbed it and threw it back from where it had come from. “Oi!” She cried out again. “Stop that! Show yourself!”

"NO SUCH LUCK, KID."
The voice was coming from the 'Triple Tree' enclosure, where there was... Well, a rather large tree where little blue angry birds were, nesting together in groups of three. While quiet before, they seemed pretty restless right now, making frightened sounding squawks.
What if they were next to be thrown?
Meanwhile, the bird that Hel had threw back into its enclosure had went SMACK right against the tree trunk... Where it stayed. Who knew that their beaks could be hard and sharp enough to get lodged in the tree trunk?

The reaper bristled.
“Fine! I am coming to you then!” The ghoul took off into a run towards the tree where the voice came from, not at all deterred by the squaking blue birds that were nesting in it. Hmmm…if she thought about it for more than a few seconds…this seemed to fit Hyde’s description of ToTer…
Not one to stand still, as soon as Hel reached the tree she started to scale it, running up the trunk as much as she could before grabbing a hold onto a branch. “Where are you!?”

Several passersby stared at Hel; even the ones who had stopped to help the poor unconscious couple turned to look - some of them gasped, covering their scarelings' eyes at the ghoul's display of 'enter the minipets' enclosure'. Several scarelings, however, had managed to wiggle free of their parents, and were now at the railing surround the enclosure.
As Hel scaled the tree, she would get no answer from whoever was there-
"Kid," The voice came from below her, a man dressed in a hooded cloak that was wispy at the end was standing at the foot of the tree. He held something small and white in his hand, tossing it up and down, "You're really Jacking stupid, charging into here like this," She would find herself being pelted by eggs that exploded upon impact, the man taking out more eggs from within his cloak as he continued to toss them at the ghoul in a casual manner, like a casketballer throwing hoops, "Enjoying the bird park so far?"

Hel did not care for the gaggle of scarelings and parents staring at her…that was the beauty of a one track mind. She squinted, staring up into the branches as she heard the voice once more. “First, my name is not Ki—“
She was hanging from a branch as her attention snapped down now at the hooded figure. “Ah there you are!” She pointed a finger at him and immediately scowled as he called her stupid. “I will show you—“
BOOM
The reaper let out a surprised cry as she was pelted by an exploding egg, letting go of the tree branch and falling back down to the ground in an ungraceful heap. “Son of a wi—“ She was pelted by another one, this one shredding a hole in the torso of her tunic. “Mother fu—“ She scrambled up now as another one exploded near by and she shifted around the trunk of the tree as she summoned her spear. “This is a bird park?” She echoed back, trying to sneak around the tree trunk to get that cloaked figure. “Oh ya...I am having a blast." Her tone was sarcastic. "And who are you?”

"I wouldn't do that if I were you, kid," He tossed another exploding egg into the air before tossing it straight at the hand holding onto the spear; the top half of his face was pretty much obscured by the hood, so it was a miracle he could even aim right, "Don't you know that it's dangerous for a kid to walk around carrying sharp objects in a public place?"
Tsk tsk.
"How rude, kid," His lips were pulled into a frown as another egg appeared on the palm of his hand, almost like a human magic trick, "Not giving your name before asking for your elder's?" He took several steps back, every step causing him to rise into the air until he was several feet up. Sitting down and crossing his legs, he leaned forward to put his elbow on one knee, propping his head up as he stared at the ghoul.

Hel yelped again as he shot an egg right at her hand, and immediately she let go of her spear, letting it dissipate before it hit the ground. She did want to try and swing the eggs back at him…but odds were they would probably explode on her spear anyways. “Do not lecture me about dangerous!” She snapped. “You are the one tossing exploding eggs everywhere!”
She peeked around the tree, scowling as he rose into the air. Was he a ghost, maybe? No matter! The reaper started to scale the tree again, looking to try and get up to his level to jump him. “My name is Hel!” She replied. “Hey…you would not happen to be a Trick or Treater by any chance, would you?” Because this whole event was pretty suspicious. It also involved a lot of minis.

"Except I'm an adult, and you are not, kid," He replied, smirking as he watched her scale the tree from where he was floating; he played with an egg that he was holding, as if contemplating tossing it at her, "A Trick or Treater? Maybe I am, maybe I'm not... What is it to you?"

“Ha! Not an adult my a**!” She snorted, and took a deep breath before she whipped around the trunk of the tree and onto a branch. She made sure not to stay there for too long though, and started to leap from branch to branch, ignoring the squawking of the birds she was disrupting. “See, when someone says that, it means yes!”
Hel huffed as she nearly missed a branch and clung frantically to it, glaring up at him. “The school counselor suggested I should look into Trick or Treating as a possible career once I graduate…but he did not know a lot about them. It is best to get information from the source, ya?”

"Are you stupid?" He asked, pausing briefly before holding up a hand, "Wait, let me answer that for you. In my opinion... Maybe you are, maybe you're not."
He played with the rim of his hood, all the while tossing that one egg up and down on his free hand; the fact that he was still there meant that either he had nothing to do that day, or Hel had somehow managed to keep his interest. Maybe it was a mixture of both.
"That guy said that? Heh, you must be a Jacking persistent one, to get him to say anything useful to you..." He tossed the egg to the ground, where it exploded, before standing up, still floating in mid-air as he grinned, "Right then, kid. Since I admire how much of a roach you are, let's play a simple game... It's called 'Avoid the Jacking explosions and earn the right to ask questions', and it starts... NOW."
An exploding egg was tossed in her direction, followed by several others.
[OOC:
-> Please roll 5d10; there are 5 eggs to avoid. Any number larger than 5 means that Hel dodged that egg.
-> A 10 enables her to kick/hit/etc it back at the ToTer.]

“No, I am not stupid!” Hel growled back, huffing. She eyed that egg in his hand warily, trying to secure herself on this branch if she wanted any hopes of dodging it. “Ya, I am persistent! When you want something you take it!” Hel was briefly relieved as he threw it down on the ground, but narrowed her eyes as the figure announced they were now playing a game. Oh great.
Hel scooted sideways down the branch, dodging the first egg, and then she scooted the other way to dodge the second one. The third one clearly hit its mark though, and Hel ended up being blown back off of the branch. The ghoul landed on her back on the ground with a thump and a hiss of pain, but she knew it wouldn’t stop here. The reaper rolled back onto her feet and immediately summoned her weapon, hitting the fourth egg back at the figure…but left herself open to the fifth one, getting knocked off of her feet with a curse.
