It was almost midnight, the air filled with fogs that embrace one with coldness. The street started to cramped with various dead creatures, a gruesome zombie bride with hollow eyes, a horrifying headless knight that holds a bloody axe, a scary satan with sharp horns and teeth, a creepy reaper with the grimmest smile, a dreadful dracula that has blood stains all over, not one to be seen in the loveliest costume of a hilarious hotdog, a handsome sailor, an angel or any beautiful mythical beings that ever been known. They were all seemed to be ugly and mortifying, wandering about the street as if they came from the land of the dead. Halloween. That was when the nightmare came to live!
Themed parties held in L.A clubs brought all the sinners in to make Halloween as an agenda for even young adults to enjoy. It was a festive to be celebrated by all stars including half of the band members of Tokio Hotel. The Kaulitz twins never stand a chance to miss it for the world.
"Oh schisse!" cursed over his failure, the black liner was smeared to his temple as Tom was trying to create a masterpiece for his undead pirate look.
Beside him, stood Bill who was adjusting his own make-up, looking like an Amun-Ra, shinning like the God of the Sun with his golden crown and chains hanging heavily on his neck. "Do you need help, bruder?" Putting down his glittering gold foundation, he stopped and just stared at his twin brother, offering a help that needed his expertise.
"Don't bother, I can do it!" Being boastful as he is, Tom managed to rub off his smeared eyeliner, and once again, trying to hold the pen still but his hand was undeniable shaking. Another line was drawn and yet again the same mistake was repeated. "Schiesse! I can't do it!"
Bill rolled his eyes and immediately grabbed the pen from Tom's hand. "You idiot, just let me do it for you! Look at me and stand still."
The both of them stood still, 6 feet tall, facing each other as if they were resembling a mirror to one another. Their eyes were locked in a gaze for momentarily. Secretly, Tom was admiring Bill's beauty and Bill was admiring Tom's beauty. The longer they stare, the harder for them to pull away. There was something glistening in both of their brown eyes, an entity longing for a help, revealing a trapped lost soul within each one of them that hungers for an escape. The troubled souls carried a burden of pain that they couldn't longer hide. Bill was envy over Tom's happiness while Tom felt guilty over Bill's loneliness. In their minds, both planted the same thought of curiosity. "How is it like to be you?"
The clock strikes 12 and the scariest night of the year has eventually arrived. The lights flickered and the next they knew, it was their own body and face they saw standing right in front of them. The both of them gasped in shock. How could Tom saw his own self, a perfect clone of himself who was jaw-dropping in shock too. Likewise, the scene occurred to Bill as well. They are indeed identical twins but it never crossed their mind that they look exactly alike to one another at that very moment since their differences are very much appealing. It felt as though they were facing their own image in the mirror when the fact that they were actually standing right in front of each other.
The lights flickered once again and as the room returned to bright, the both of them could see each other again, Tom was seeing Bill and Bill was seeing Tom. Although, they knew well that they saw an exact vision of themselves for a split second there. A sudden white noise came from the tv from the bedroom they were in, locating a bad reception from the satellite. Strangely, a voice was heard within the white noise. "Becareful what you wish for on Halloween!" after the message was delivered, the tv tuned back to its previous channel.
Bill and Tom plastered a terrified look on their faces. They thought their minds were playing some tricks but to witnessed the voice from the white noise together at the same time, it was something for them not have doubts on its occurrence. It was actually happening and it was real or was it?
"Hey guys, be ready in 10. we'll wait you downstairs."
To heard upon Ria's reminder, both Bill and Tom snapped back to reality. The room fell silence as they tried to ignore of what just happened before Ria came to check up on them. They wanted to talk about it but there wasn't much time as the clock was ticking and they were chasing it to attend a party. The mysterious thought was abruptly erased and Bill was back to his job for the Halloween night as Tom's splendid make-up artist.
But question still remains in their head every now and then, "did we actually swap bodies?"
