''In the far future, on [[Cybertron (planet)\|Cybertron]], once a year the [[Mini-Con]]s gather to pass on stories in an oral tradition. This is one such story, as related by an extremely old Mini-Con.''

	It's Autumn in [[South Dakota]], and [[Alexis Thi Dang\|Alexis]], [[Carlos Lopez\|Carlos]], and [[Rad White\|Rad]] have gone camping with their Mini-Con friends. They discuss that night's [[Halloween]] celebration — Rad is intending to go as a [[zombie]], while Carlos's costume is a secret. Alexis professes to be above all that, and is going out collecting for {{w\|UNICEF}} instead. Confused, the Mini-Cons ask what Halloween is. Alexis explains how it was an end-of-summer ritual which started in [[Ireland]] some 2500 years ago, but is now used by children to obtain candy from strangers. The Mini-Cons are still confused, so Rad suggests the kids bring the Mini-Cons with them when they trick or treat.

	That night, in the school yard, Rad tells a ghost story, which causes the Mini-Cons to panic. While he's laughing, Alexis turns the tables by creeping up on him from behind and making him jump. Carlos asks to be helped into his costume, which turns out to be a poorly-constructed facsimile of a Mini-Con, and they go trick or treating.

	Arriving at a street, they are initially uncertain as to what to do with the Mini-Cons, until Rad and Carlos decide they can come beg for candy. Alexis reveals her costume — she's trick or treating as a princess. The boys manage to keep straight faces. At the first house, they encounter a dog, but the residents restrain it and distribute candy (and money for UNICEF to Alexis and [[Sureshock (Armada)\|Sureshock]]). Afterwards, they go over the rules again. Rad explains that if they don't get candy, they can later return to the house and "soap their windows or t.p. their trees". This established, the three humans and three Mini-Cons continue trick or treating.
