Some time later, Molly, Spook and Mum followed Matt to a street basketball course, to find Billy practicing on hitting a dodge ball at a wall and tries to dodge at its return, only to get hit in the face.
"Still can't avoid the ball, you try too hard."
"But, practice makes perfect, right?!" When he turned around, he gasps.
"Molly, is it really you?!"
"The one and only!" Billy suddenly hug her, as her face turns red.
"Too tight!" she cried. He let her go, as she caught her breath.
"Welcome back! You look like you haven't age at all!"
"That's because my witches power keep me this way!"
"Cool! I bet you have so much fun in that spooky town you live in now."
"I guess I do."
"By the way, your hair smell great! Like pumpkin pie! Is there a hair salon at that spooky place?!"
"Um, that's a secret!" She blush a little. "What have you been up to?"
""I'm practicing my dodge ball skills so I can make the school's team! I suck at the moment but, I'll get better. I also want to try this!" He took out a flyer and gave it to her.
"A remote control dodge ball?! How stupid! You can't us this on the actual team!"
"Why, of course not! Would I lie to you?!" She rolled her eyes as he chuckled.
"That;s the Molly I use to know! I'm hoping I;ll get it for the Holiday." He took back the flyer. "Hey, lets celebrate while you are still here! Wanna get some ice cream?!"
ICE CREAM?! Hey, Molly! Lets hope they have my favorite flavor! Mum, who was waiting near the street with Spook, ran up to her and run off with her, as Spook follow.
"Say, Matt, Who were they?"
"Oh, just some neighborhood kids Molly knows." Matt follow them, with a confuse Billy.
Billy and Matt walked out of the ice parlor, with their worm ice cream in hand.
"It'll be just like the old days! Us with our worms ice cream and Molly complains."
"Maybe." Matt feel of not sure of himself. The ghoul came out first. Mum took a big bite, only to spit it out.
"Hey, this is not real worms! i got had again!"
"Molly's friends are sure strange. Hey, there she is! So, what flavor did you get-" Before he could finish, he saw her eating the same ice cream as the rest. "Molly! I thought you hated that flavor?!"
"Well, it's nowhere compare to what they serve in Halloween town! I'm I use to it after having real worms and eyeballs."
"You can eat eyeballs?! Man, being a ghoul make me feel a little jealous!"
"You could say that." She licked her cone.
"So, do you go to a monster school to get education?"
"No, I'm home schooled, Both stranded education and witch training by my own guardian."
"That tall skeleton dude?! I'm surprise a scary thing like that can look after a small girl like you!"
"Hey, I'm not that small. And I trust him very much!"
"Yeah, tell him, Molly!" Mum cheered. Spook gulp his ice cream, only to fall through him.
"Hey, how did your ice cream fall down like that if you ate it! Molly, your friends aren't normal!" Molly giggled.
"Well, would you like a magic show?!'
Back at Matt's house, he and Billy sat down on the living room's couch. Molly appears with Spook and Mum by her side. With her wand, she change to her witch outfit, with the ghouls reveal their true selves.
"Hey, It's Molly''s Halloween friends! Oh, this is going to be great!"
She turned the house's gold fish into a frog, she made small household items float in thin air, Spook flies all around the room and made things disappeared. Mum grabbed things by expanding his mummy's wrapping and use it like a rope. They end their performances with flashes of fireworks in the air as all three strike a pose. Billy and Matt clapped.
"I know it's not much, I'm just starting out. I'll learn more tricks as they come."
"No, Molly! That was great! Better than any lame birthday magic show! Can you and your friends do one more thing!" They all wondered.
Night has fall and they stood outside of a small house. A small party was going on inside, as they stood by a window.
"Billy, would this risk anything?!"
"Oh, Molly! It'll be fine! I wasn't invited to this cool kid's house party and humiliated me in front of everyone! They won'y even know what him them!"
"Yeah, Molly! Halloween citizens love to scare!" Mum cheered. She sigh.
"Fine, but not too frightening!" Molly use her wand to dim the lights. When everyone wondered, She made all the furniture float, as Mum creepily groan through a loud speaker Billy owned. Soon, the house guests ran out, with the host screaming like a girl. Billy and Mum laughed away, as Matt and Spook walked to them.
"Well just finish showing Spook the neighborhood. What we miss?'
"Where were you guys! You miss such a sight!"
"Spook, you could had join the fun!"
"I see that all the time. I just wanted to see a sight of a normal town."
"Spook told me how you are a good friend of his and your adventures there. I guess you are in good hands." She smiled.
"I told you so."
Suddenly, something pinch her wrist. Spook noticed the glow again, and wondered. But, he told her something else.
"Molly, we should get back. We don't want to stay too late"
"Aww, already! We're just getting started!'
"Come on, Spook! Don't you want to scare more?!"
"No, Spook is right. Matt, it was really great to see you again. I'm sure it won't be the last. Here, have this." She gave him a tiny skull. "I can only see you at least once a month. When you are ready for me to visit, call my name to it and I'll see if I can come."
"Molly, I'm sure you'll be fine. You are doing well without me. I'll be proud either ways!"
"Hey, lets do more pranks next time!"
"Yeah, I'm up to it" Spook rolled his eyes.
"Thanks, Matt. I'll see you soon." She gave him a heartfelt hug. She then summon the portal back to Halloween Town. They all waved one last goodbye, as they disappeared.
"Matt, you have one awesomely sister."
"Yeah." he sighed. Still, he still miss the old days of their youth and must learn to accept their new lives. Molly and her friends made it home, as they wait for more adventures to come, as Halloween night is just around the corner.
