As Spookyville was starting, the original members of Animalia Ambassadoria were getting ready for Halloween in their own ways. Abby, Malice, and Sarah would be with their boyfriends going to the adult party at the Meat Market, renamed the Slaughterhouse for the season. But since Jessica, Roger, Sophie, and Roland were still single-dosed and under-aged, they couldn't go yet. Though next year, they were promised they'd be able to attend. JC and Pauline could have gone to the adult party, seeing as they were both double-dosed. But JC didn't want to go if Sophie couldn't go and Pauline didn't want to go without JC. So the six of them were going to be coordinating their costumes to be enjoying the rest of Spookyville.

"At least it's easy for me and Roland to decide," said Sophie as she was working on her body paint, "I think the before and after photos of last year's Halloween and this one will really speak for themselves."
"Me, I'm mostly thinking this year is a prelude for next year," said Jessica as she adjusting the pieces of her costume, "I can wait for next year's party. I'm going to really look like Jessica Rabbit then."
"You do know that you won't be 18 yet," pointed out Sophie.
"We'll still be in our senior year. If anyone deserves to be at that party, it's us," said Jessica.
"Besides, I'm betting that she and Roger will have already mated before then," said Pauline as she was putting on her costume, "So there's not going to be anything at that party that'll surprise us."
"Pauline, we don't talk about that kind of thing," said Sophie.
"Well, maybe not in public, but why not talk about it among us?" asked Pauline, "You and Roland aren't virgins anymore. It's a surprise that Jessica and Roger still are."
Sophie sighed and rubbed the top of her beak with annoyance. "Pauline, Roland and I are still under-age. We do take precautions, but we don't try to have sex at the earliest opportunity. And we shouldn't be pressuring Jessica into rushing things with Roger either."
A little later, the girls were finished getting ready and they stepped out behind their blinds to show what they had. Like last year, Sophie was dressed up like Katana from the Gargoyles comic. Though dressing up as a gargoyle was easier for a Pterodactyl than it was for a human. Her beak and wings were real this time, even if they were painted blue. Her crest stood out a bit from her horns and the wig she was wearing, but not too much. She was still wearing a fake tail, though otherwise, her costume and Dinotopian form worked better together. Sophie also filled out her costume more than last year, her breasts considerably bigger and her hips were wider.
Jessica was wearing a ninja outfit, but it was more eyebrow-raising than usual. It was mostly pale purple with black armor on her shoulders and lower arms and a long black scarf. The pants had slits that exposed her hips, though that was not atypical with female ninja outfits. It also left her stomach and lower back completely exposed, which was still not out of the ordinary. It was the fact that her top completely exposed her cleavage to the point that her breasts were nearly spilling out that grabbed attention.
"You were saying something about not pressuring her?" asked Pauline in a dry tone. She had gone for a classic pirate wench look, which consisted of a lacy white shirt under a black corset, both of which served to enhance and emphasize her bust. She wore breeches that were shredded from the knee down along with a red sash with a fake dagger at her side. While Pauline couldn't wear hoop earrings, she had on plenty of bling around her neck and a bandana on her head.
"Jessica, who are you supposed to be?" asked Sophie.
"I'm Akane the Kunoichi," said Jessica. Sophie and Pauline gave confused looks. "It's a platforming game," explained Jessica.
"Is that anything like Shantae?" asked Sophie.
"A little, but it's more simplified," said Jessica.
"I'm not questioning your choice of character," said Sophie, "I'm just worried you might have a wardrobe malfunction."
"This top is sturdier than it looks," said Jessica, hopping in place. True, her breasts did bounce quite a bit, but they didn't look like they were about to fly out.
"Five doubloons say she'll shack up with Roger before Halloween is over," muttered Pauline.
Sophie gave Pauline's shoulder a light punch and said, "Don't encourage her. She and Roger can do what they want when they're ready."
"Shall we check on the boys?" asked Jessica.
"Roger is gonna have such a nosebleed," said Pauline.
"That doesn't happen in real life," said Sophie.
"Well, it could, but only under very rare circumstances," said Jessica, "It'd be more likely if Roger sneezed."
"Sneezed?" asked Sophie disbelievingly.
"That's a more of a genetic thing and I don't think Roger has that anyways," said Jessica.
"He's sure to get some kind of reaction," said Pauline.
"You're not going to stop, are you?" asked Sophie flatly.
"Nope," said Pauline, "It's a pirate's duty to drive ninjas nuts."
"I'm not a ninja," said Sophie, "I'm a samurai."
"Samurai, ninja, same difference," said Pauline.
"It is not the same," snapped Sophie, but Pauline ignored her and walked out the door. "She's gonna be like this all week, isn't she?" asked Sophie.
"Not all the time, but she'll be working on getting laughs," said Jessica, "C'mon, I want to see Roland as Brooklyn."
"Yeah, me too," said Sophie.
