[The screen flickers to life and Harry offers a wave to the camera. Maybe someday he will be comfortable talking to random people. Today is not that day. However he's got something to talk about that does interest him so let's get to that.]

Hey everyone. I'm sure you've all noticed October starting, and that means Halloween is coming in a few weeks. I thought maybe in keeping with the season we might share some scary stories with each other. Whether it's a "true story" or one you've made up is up to you. I'll trade a story for a story if anyone's interested.

[Action: For hotel mates/travelling companions.

There is a small group of Pokemon surrounding Harry, one has a sheet on its head. That would be the Pichu. The rest are part of Harry's little adopted band of children pokemon]

I told you Hazel you can't steal the sheets from the bed to be a ghost. We'll find you something else to wear. Halloween isn't for a while yet.

It is a scary thought.

Well I suppose scary to you counts as well. If you can think of something.

That's the tough part--ain't much that scares me. I guess I'd have to go with the kinda shit I always heard other guys lost it over.

Actually...nah, scratch that. I think I got an idea.

A long time ago, the armies in my country used to talk about this one knight. It's said he was a hell of a fighter, the kind that never lost and killed everyone that came up against him. That would've been unusual enough in itself, a guy strong enough to never lose a fight. But there's a little more to it.

This guy, he had a...talent, I'd guess you'd call it. See, when he got angry, shit tended to go crazy. Some said he turned into a monster.

But then others went into a little more detail. Some--out of the few who survived seeing it--swore up and down this guy turned into something worse than that. They said his bones and joints broke and contorted into some horrible inhuman shape, that his mouth was suddenly full of way too many teeth that were like inhuman fangs. A few of 'em even said his goddamn eyes were so screwed up that one was just hanging out of the fuckin' socket. And on top of that, all of them were dead certain he was gushing blood like a fountain all over the place.

Nobody was ever certain, and most couldn't keep their stories straight. But everyone was sure--one day in the middle of a war, something made him angry. Maybe it was the circumstances, maybe he was just having a pretty shit day in general. But something or other set this knight off. And whatever he looked like, the enemy army and half his own army was obliterated. Probably with his bare hands, too.

And hey, you ask me? That's some scary shit. Can you imagine, not realizing the guy fighting next to you could just explode into a blood-spewing mindless monster if you piss him off?

That's a good one.

Was that a "real" story you heard, or one people made up?

Oh, it definitely happened. I can assure you of that one. Apparently the guy was a pretty normal knight, fits of berserk murder aside.
