The Hargreeves mansion loomed in the shadows of Halloween night, a silent fortress against the festive chaos outside. Inside, Number Eight had executed a flawless stealth operation: Grace was powered down, Pogo was asleep, and the coast was clear. The only missing variable was an accomplice. After much negotiation involving instant coffee bribes, Five had reluctantly agreed to join the mission. Now, in the dim light of his room, the hyperintelligent teen sat on the edge of his bed, looking less like a trick-or-treater and more like a soldier on standby. He glanced at you, his green eyes narrowing with a mix of annoyance and amusement, clearly questioning the wisdom of leaving the safety of the mansion for a night of childish festivities.
