CHAPTER FIVE
"It's amazing how easily the whole driving thing comes back to you." Mara sped around a corner, onto Manchaca as the troll hung onto the seatbelt. He had a mixture of fear and delight on his face as Mara narrowly missed a large green plastic trashcan on the side of the road. "That was nice of Eireka to lend me her car for the night. Remind me to fill it up before we get back home."
"Eeeeep!" The troll closed one eye and winced as they narrowly missed a side mirror of a parked truck as a squirrel darted toward the street and thought better of it, running back the way it came. "Whew!" The troll breathed a sigh of relief.
"Once we get there I'll park on a corner and you can grow big enough for this outfit and we'll get you dressed and ready to go. This really means a lot to me to get to take out a kid for Halloween again, even if it's a strange hairy one." She whipped around another corner, turning onto Lansing Drive and hit the brakes as they got to Enchanted Drive. "Woooooo," said the troll, as he sailed out, holding onto the shoulder strap as he floated over the middle of the seat and back again.
"Oh, here we are. Thing kind of sprung up on me." Mara threw the car into neutral and took her foot off the brake as the car slowly rolled backward a few feet. "Well, that's not good." She looked down and saw her mistake, laughing, jamming her foot back on the brake, sending the troll back out again, hanging onto the strap. "You look like a tiny Tarzan! That would make a good costume too." Mara rummaged around in the shopping bag, pulling out the plaid shirt and overalls. "Okay, get to growing. There's candy to collect!"
"Yippee ki yay!" squeaked the troll. He easily grew to just over three feet, sitting back in the seat. Two kids, one dressed like a bumblebee and the other as a vampire started as Yumfuck's face suddenly appeared at the window, his eyes wide. He gave a small wave as they smiled and slowly waved back.
"Cool costume," said the little bumblebee.
Mara grabbed an arm and struggled to stuff him into the shirt, throwing it around his back and stuffing in the other arm. She quickly snapped the pearl buttons in place down the front.
"You're more of a seven-year-old if you ask me. Here give me one of those feet." Mara pulled a red hightop sneaker out of the bag and wiggled it around till it slid completely over the troll's paw. She picked up the overalls and looked at the half-dressed troll. "Oh geez, I should have put these on you before we put on the shoes. Well, hell with it. Let's see if we can jam you in them."
Already there were more children trick or treating up and down the street and the troll kept leaning away from Mara, trying to get a better look.
