Chapter 2
Halloween

Chapter Description: Tabby and Jakey go out to have a fun night of Trick or Treating.

Days came and went, until finally Halloween night was there. It was about 5:00Pm and Tabitha was getting ready. Jake was supposed to meet her at 6 so he could get ready. Tabitha’s parents had already left for a Halloween party, and wouldn’t be back till most likely 3AM. Her 8 year old sister Angie was out at a friend’s house getting ready to trick or treat. Tabitha undressed down to just her panties, pulling out the Princess costume and laying it on her bead to make sure it was smooth. She took a deep breath and pulled the dress onto her body. Just like before she was met with a little resistance, but it quickly faded as she continued to pull it up. Once it reached her shoulders she looked in the mirror to see her 7 year old self again. Tabitha went to take a step towards the mirror to check things out, but nearly tripped as her panties slid down her legs. She giggled like a little girl "oops, forgot about those." She stepped out of them and walked down the hall to her sister’s room. "Angie won’t mind if I borrow some of these I’m sure." she said. As she rummaged through Angie’s closet she found a pair of purple tights that matched the princess outfit just perfect, as well as a pair of flowery pink panties, and a pair of white shoes. She put them all on right there in Angie’s room and looked at herself in the mirror. She looked so pretty, like a little Barbie doll she thought. Just then a knock came from the door.

Tabitha made her way down the stairs; nearly tripping on them as she realized just how much bigger the house was to her now. "Who is it?" the little girl said. "It’s Jake" The voice from the other side of the door said. Tabitha opened the door; it felt so much heavier than before. "Well, how do I look?" Stopping Jake in the doorway and spinning around. "You look like a cute little princess." Jake said with a smile. "Ok, your costumes in my room come on." She said running up the stairs. She stopped at the top and spun around. Oh, and you brought the underwear right?" Jake sighed. "Yes, I went to Wal-Mart and bought some, all I could find are ones with sponge bob prints on them." Tabitha giggled "that’s ok silly; you’re not going out wearing just your underwear." Jake noticed she was acting kind of childish, but that was most likely just because she was excited. Jake went up to her room and started to undress. As he got his shirt off he noticed that Tabitha wasn’t going to leave the room. "Do you mind?" he said turning around to look at the little girl in the princess costume sitting on the end of the bed with a huge grin on her face. "Oh don’t mind me, its not like I haven’t seen it before! We made out on our first date don’t you remember?" Jake found it hard to think of this little girl as his girlfriend, but did his best to ignore her. He stripped down to his nothings and then donned the cape. Instantly he regressed to a 5 year old. He looked in the mirror at his naked 5 year old self. "Hehehe, you look so funny" Tabitha said, this made Jake blush. He walked over to the bed and dug through his bag till he found the sponge bob briefs and put them on. They fit well. He then dressed in the rest of the Vader outfit. After fitting the Vader mask he spun around and pointed at Tabitha and said in his best attempt at a man voice. "Leia! I am your father!" Tabitha giggled. "Hey, let’s do my hair up now!" she said, jumping off the bed and running over to her dresser. She sat down at it and started to braid up her light brown hair. "How long is this gonna take tabby?" Jake said. "Not too long jakey, here hold this." she handed him a group of hair pins. It only took Tabitha a few minutes to put her hair up, slowly but surely the pile of hair pins in Jake’s hands disappeared as she used them.

"Well, how do I look?" Tabitha said, standing up and spinning around. "You look good tabby" Jake said. Tabitha giggled. "Why do you keep calling me tabby?" Jake shrugged. "I dunno, you’re so cute in that, that’s just the first name that comes to mind." Tabitha grabbed Jake’s hand and led him out of the room. "C’mon lets go!" They went downstairs and got 2 bags out of the kitchen. The bags were black and orange. The orange one had a bat on it, and the black one had a pumpkin. "Here’s your trick or treat bag, I bought them yesterday at Wal-Mart aren’t they cute?" Jake smiled, although she couldn’t see it through his mask. "Yea... cute" Tabitha dug through her bag and puleld out a smaller bag that had a srtap tied to it. "I modified mine so I could keep my house keys in it; we’re all ready let’s go! It’s getting late!" By this time it was already 7:30 and the sun had went down already.

The two walked hand in hand from house to house collecting candy. Tabitha carried a big smile on her face from door to door. Most of the people at the houses made comments about how cute she was holding hands with Vader. Some thought he was her little brother, others thought he was her boyfriend. Jake had to admit he was having fun too, although he’d never been one to dress up for Halloween it was always fun to go through the neighborhood collecting all that candy.

They made their way to the cul-de-sac by 9:30. When they got there they ran into Josh Williams and his friends. Josh was a nasty little 8 years old that always caused trouble. Jake had never had a problem with the kid before, besides throwing rocks at his car and always stealing their newspaper from the front steps. "Hey look at the little couple" Josh said. Jake was actually getting kind of scared when Josh went out of his way to acknowledge them. "Just ignore them" Tabitha said, trying to play the big girl, although she could see a problem coming too. Josh stopped them in the end of the cul-de-sac with his friends. "You can’t pass little boy, both of you will have to pay me with all of your candy to pass; and Vader kid here will have to give me his cape. Tabitha looked at the little boy and said "we don’t have to give you anything!" She tried to walk past him, but his friends grabbed her and started digging candy out of her bag. "Let me go!" she said. Jake’s boyfriend instincts kicked in and he shouted at them. "Hey you let her go!" With that they threw her to the ground and began walking towards him. In the events he had completely forgotten he was 5 and these big 8 year olds could easily pound him. "Give me that cape!" they said pulling on his cape from the top. He fought them off as best as he could but eventually he heard a rip and fell to the ground. He looked up to see that one of the boys had ripped the tag out of the cape.

"Ages 5-7 huh?" Josh said as he snatched the tag out of his friends hand and read it. He pulled out a pen. "How about... ages...." As he spoke he scribbled out the 5 and the 7 and above them wrong 1-2 "one to two." Instantly Jake began to feel funny. He suddenly found himself shrinking. As quickly as the costume had changed his age before it changed it again. Jake was now a 1 year old baby in a baby’s Vader costume. He could feel his sponge bob underwear loose inside his pants. All he knew to do at this point was cry. He fell onto his butt and began bawling. The group of 8 year olds were freaked out and dropped the tag as they ran away. Tabitha ran over to Jake "are you ok?" She took off his mask to find a tiny little baby face with only a small tuft of hair on his head trying desperately to fight back his sniffles. She picked him up as well as the tag. "Dont worry babe, we’ll get you back to normal." By this time it was nearly 11:45. They had to hustle if they were going to make it back to the house in time! Tabitha tucked the baby Jakey under her arm, tossed his tag into her bag and ran as fast as she could back to the house. It usually only took Tabitha 5 minutes to run the neighborhood on her morning jogs, but since she had much shorter legs it took her nearly 10 minutes, and she was exhausted from having to take more steps.

Tabitha busted into the door of the house at 11:57. She dropped her bag on the floor and began to undress from the costume. "Quick Jake take off your costume!" she said. As she pulled the outfit off she was returned to her 19 year old self. It was 11:59 and Jake was desperately trying to get out of his outfit but lacked the motor skills to do it. Tabitha grabbed Jake and practically tore the costume off of him. As she tore the last piece off the clock began to strike 12. Jake suddenly became very heavy. She was forced to drop him but he didn’t fall far as his age was restored. The final strike of midnight came just as his 19 year old feet touched the floor. His sponge bob underwear was around his ankles already but were still torn slightly from his aging. Tabitha likewise had completely destroyed her sister’s panties and tights in the process.

Tabitha looked at Jake with a look of mutual happiness. Maybe next year a party would be the best idea. They sat down at the kitchen table and dumped what was left of the candy on the table. They sorted it out and enjoyed the candy. As they sat and talked at the table it hadn’t even occurred to either of them that they were both naked. "Hey tab, maybe next year we should send that little Josh a costume for toddlers from the shop." Tabitha’s eyes lit up, she was so happy to hear that Jake was already planning to do this again, and next year, they’d be ready.
