Chapter Text
Tonight was to be a treat on a very stormy full moon, as a pink, bat-like goatling took her lead to the supposedly haunted mansion promised to grant her lots of candy. Her well cared for bubblegum fur shone beautifully like the haunted portrait's pretty eyes. Her veil and collar fit snugly on her small body. She looked back down at her map, studying it as hard as she could, in a bit of panic. She decided to set the map down and examine the area, the directions making her head spin. If she was going the right way to the candy filled mansion, then why did the map lead her to the stormy side of the sea of clouds?
Alright, uhh... This could just be a silly trick he gave me. The Sweet Bat thought to herself. I know! I'll sit by the dock for now and get my energy back.
The Sweet Bat stretched her body before sitting down, the salty yet ominous breeze putting her at ease, with visions of sugary sweets dancing in her head. It calmed her and almost put her to sleep, but not before a loud horn went off. It startled her as she got up to look around. It was from the Pumpkin Pirate's ship!
"I choose trick! Hah! Did I scare 'ya?" The goat in the spooky garb chucked.
"Very funny, but it looks like you've forgotten my ears are quite sensitive."
The Sweet Bat eyed the guy down in annoyance, but couldn't help but laugh. "Okay, maybe it was a little bit funny."
The Pumpkin Pirate made a dash into the under quarters of his ship, getting out a newly bought rope, tying some knots in it. He came back to the top and threw the rope out to let the pink goat with the fuzzy ears climb onto the ship. She bit onto it and held tight as her friend pulled her up on deck. The landing was a little rough, but it luckily didn't break the items she had in a little purse. The Sweet Bat got herself back up and walked over to the Pumpkin Pirate with a sneaky grin on her face.
"Funny thing you lead me here, I took the time to pack a treat for you!" She put her bag on the ground and shook out a little cupcake with lovely lemon frosting.
"Aw, you shouldn't have! I love lemons! Yes yes-" The Pumpkin Pirate took a bite, only to be repulsed and spat it out immediately. "MUSTARD!?"
The Sweet Bat laughed slyly. "Trick."
