Fran prances in Maxwell’s office in the shortest of all mini skirts. She goes up and sits on his lap. "Maxwell I have the twins costume picked out. There going to pebbles and Bam-Bam!" Fran said happily as she talked about her almost 4 year old twins "and the Triplets are going to be 3 peas in a pod since they are only 7 months old we can just wrap them in green and put them in a blanket in the stroller. Grace has decided to be a 1930’s movie star. Brighton is going to be a 1930‘s movie director. Maggie is going to be Cinderella and Michael is going to be prince Charming and Sarah’s going to be a little Pumpkin. Niles and C.C. are going to be the made and the Butler. Emily’s going to be a princess. Now as for us you have a choice: number one: Tarzan and Jane number two: Wonder woman and Superman number three: Lucy and Ricky."

"Well Fran How about number two and I have a little surprise for you. I’m hosting a Halloween ball with costumes. Its for charity and I would like you to decorate and pick a place to have it." Max asks

"I would LOVE to." Fran said as she kisses him " Oh this is perfect! I love you. You really want me to be wonder woman and you to be Superman?"

"Yea I guess so. Does Wonder woman get to make-out with Superman?" Max asks playfully as he kisses his wife.

"Well I guess so Kent Clark. But there’s no time for that, I have a party to plan." Fran says as she gets off his lap and runs out the door.

(KITCHEN A WEEK LATER)

Fran is at the table with Gracie. There surrounded by books and papers and all sorts of Halloween stuff . There’s only 5 more days until the big Halloween party. "Wow I have it all set, where going to have it at that creepy old mansion museum that going to be torn down in November." Fran says as she flips through the mail " Oh what’s this?" She looks at the letter funny. It reads on the front: The soon to be Late Francine Joy Sheffield. Then she opens it in read ink it says: BEWARE, LOOK OUT! "Oh my god…" Fran slowly gets up.

"Fran what is it?" Grace asks

"Oh its just,…. Just a birth announcement yeah, yeah, for my Cousin Betsy." Fran says as she runs out of the room to go find Max. She was so shaken up that all really she wanted to do was lye in his arms. She goes into his office with tears streaming down her cheeks, "Oh Maxwell!"

"Nanny Fine where in the middle of something can you please leave-- NOW!" C.C said greedily

"C.C you can leave something obviously wrong. What’s the matter darling?" Max says as he gathers her in his arms. C.C. leaves.

"Oh Maxwell look!" She hands the letter to him and he reads it’

"The soon to be late Francine Joy Sheffield? Oh my god what’s this about?" Max starts to get up.

"No NO! don’t leave ME! PLEASE! I just want you to hold me," Fran screams hysterically

Just then Niles come in with a box.

"Mrs. Sheffield this just came for you. I’m Sorry I interrupted. I don’t understand though because it says soon to be late Mrs. Francine Joy Sheffield, well I have to go prepare dinner." Niles says as he gives the box to Fran.

"Oh my god. Max!" She looks at the box then takes a letter opener and opens it, In there there’s a bunch of Pictures and I a note it reads: I LOVE your body, your children aren’t good though I’m not fond of : Maggie, Brighton, Grace, Jonah, Eve, Tia, Timmy, and Tommy. Your freckle on your bottom makes my mouth water. Until later my love……. BEWARE. In the box where pictures of her every where’s she’s been. There pictures of all her family members too. There pictures of her getting dressed taking a bath and all sorts of other nasty things. There are even pictures of her and Max with him colored out.

"Oh I have to get the police on this right now, but I don’t want you to leave my side. We will leave right now where do you want to go, anywhere in the world." Max said as he gets the phone.

"NO! I will not miss the Halloween ball. All I have wanted to do is that. It might just be some stupid prank, I mean come on………." Fran says

"Darling I know I wont be able to persuade you but then I’m not leaving you side and I mean it. I couldn’t bare if something happens to you." Max says as he gathers her in his arms.

"Fine but then I’m just going to go get our costumes together then I think I’ll lye down. "I’ll call you if anything happens." Fran says shakily

"No the costumes can wait I’ll come and lay down with you now." Max said as he walks her upstairs. When they get there Fran seems like she’s hypnotized. Max gets her P.J bottoms out and hands them to her but she wont take them, she’s in a very uncomfortable looking outfit and it doesn’t look good to sleep in. Then max decides to take a bath with her. He walks her into the bathroom. She seems very tense. Max turns on the water and puts soap in it. He starts to loosen his tie when he notices that Fran is just staring not doing anything. He decides to help her. He feels uncomfortable to take her clothes off but then again its his wife. He takes her Jacket off then her top, then he takes her skirt and takes it off then her pantyhose. All she has left is her bra and under where left on. He takes off all of his clothes and then just gently take off the rest, he picks her up and steps in the tub. He sits down in the warm water and places her next to him. He just hugs her, then he washes her body, then her hair she’s responding but still is in shock. Then he gets out to get his cell phone that’s ringing in their room. He wraps a towel around him the heads out when:

"MAXWELL! Don’t leave me here please I need you right now please!" Fran seems really scared. She is crying hysterically then she gets out of the tub, "Just hold me." Max runs over in to her arms. They stay there for a long time.

"Lets say we lye down together until dinners ready, I asked Niles to feed the Twins and the Triplets. So no worries." Little did she know that he gave Niles the letter and the package to give to the police. He dries her off and them him self off. He grabs her lounge clothes: a tank top and P.J pants and give them to her to put them on then he puts on P.J bottom. He wraps his arms around her and guides her to the bed and they both lay down. She snuggles tightly into his arms and he hugs her.

"I love you" Fran says as she goes deeper into his protective arms. They fall asleep. Max wakes up and notices its 5:30, dinner would be ready in ½ hours, he gets out of bed carefully then puts on his robe. Fran looks so peaceful. He creeps out of the room and down stairs.

"oh Niles hi. Umm what did the police say ?" Max asks

"Oh sir they said that they would call tomorrow. The only thing is that there really not taking that much precaution because it is Halloween." Niles says

"Really. NO I’ll have to call them. I cant seem to get away from Fran she’s so scared." Max says

"MAXWELL! OH MY GOOOOOOOD!" Fran is hear screaming "MAX! HELP"

"Oh my god FRAN!" Max screams as he runs into there room. Fran is on the floor crying. The window is busted open with a rock on the floor that says BEWHERE.....SOON. "Fran are you alright?" Max says as he holds her to him.

"Oh Maxwell! I don’t know I don’t feel safe anymore!" Fran is now crying hysterically and shaking. There on the floor and she’s crying. Now Maggie Brighton and Grace are at the door with Niles looking like they need to help her. But Fran being not totally out of it says "The Halloween Dance is not off!" Through her cries

"Fran I’m really sorry but I don’t think that’s good I mean some one is after you, I mean you my wife and I would dye for you." Max said hugging her close

"NO I need to go I mean it. Now kids c’mere I need to tell you something." Fran proceeds to tell them what’s going on.

"Oh my god mom we need to do something, we need to tell someone, I mean I couldn’t stand if anything where to happen to you" Maggie says

"Yes this is why I’m going to have tight security which means invitation only. And we’ll have a guess list, so no one can get in. I only want Fran by either Niles or myself. Really I don’t know what’s going on. If you see anything weird please tell me, now go have dinner, Niles can you please bring some up here and call to have that window replace as soon as possible- I mean it like tonight, I’ll see you all tomorrow, and Grace and Brighton could you please watch the little ones I think Fran needs to be alone." Max said as sternly as possible, but really inside he was so scared. They all left to leave Fran shuttering in Maxwell’s lap on the floor. "Darling I think we should sleep in the guest room tonight."

"No because there’s two twin beds, I don’t want to be alone tonight and I’d feel better if the triplets slept in either our room or with Brighton Or Grace." Fran said "I’d really feel good if all of them could sleep with us"

"Fran how bout this. We could have a little sleep over like down stairs. I mean just our family Michael gets back from his shoot tomorrow so we’d Have Maggie, Sarah, Brighton, Grace, Jonah, Eve, Tia, Tommy and Timmy all down stairs in the living room safe and protected. I could give Niles the night off after he sets up all the beds and bassinets. How does that sound.?" Max asks

"Yeah that sounds great, I mean I’ll have all my babies. But do we get to share a sleeping bag?" Fran asks feeling a little happier

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(10 PM LIVING ROOM)

Everyone was all set. Fran wasn’t her normal self still and didn’t eat much (That’s a shocker) When ever Max would leave her side she would get scared, so she fallowed him everywhere even in the bathroom. Maxwell is uncomfortable about it but its ok under the circumstances. To make matters even worse there was a severe thunderstorm so its was thunder and lighting, and power outages all around. The living room looked like a camp site, the couches where pushed away, and there where 6 sleeping bags on the floor, and there where 4 bassinettes. Niles, C.C and Emily where at C.C.’s sisters house for a visit in Rhode Island. Brighton had his sleeping bag next to Jonahs. They where both sitting there playing with leggos, Gracie had put her sleeping bag next to Jonah’s but on the other side was Eve, they where playing with Barbie dolls. Maggie was at the foot of all of them with the bassinet next to hers, she was holding Sarah rocking her back and fourth. Next to Maggie was Max and Fran with tree bassinets next to the others. The triplets where sleeping. Fran and Max where leaning up against the couch in there sleeping bag. Fran’s head was on his shoulder while Max was stroking her arm. The tins where now asleep, there really heavy sleepers, and Maggie put Sarah to sleep "How bout we watch some T.V.?" Brighton asked, "I wonder if there’s any good movies on?" Brighton picked up the remote and turned it on, Fran was finally content and stopped being frightened by every little thing, the all of a sudden the movie "The Shinning" came on with Jack Nicklson takes an axe and hit’s the door and sticks his head in and says " HEEER’S Johnny!"

"AHHHH MAX!" Fran screams, and throws the popcorn up in the air and sticks her head under the covers. Brighton quickly changes it to "Pretty Woman" Fran’s Favorite movie. "He’s coming HE’S coming!"

"Fran Fran CALM down, it was just a movie looks what’s on now. Isn’t this your favorite?" Max said as he uncovered her and collected her in his protective arms.

"Children I don’t really mind you watching the movie but just lye down it is almost 12 now." All the children (not really children but well close enough) lied down. Maggie was asleep instantly, Brighton didn’t like the movie so he played with his game boy. Gracie loved the movie so she lied there watching it. Fran was shaking and sobbing but watched the movie. "Umm Darling I have to go to the bathroom so I’ll be right back" Just then a big boom of thunder hit.

"NO" don’t leave me! Fran said

"Well I kind of have to go" Max said getting up

"I’ll go with you then" Fran simply stated

"Fran…..you no how I feel about that…." Max said but Fran gave he puppy dog eyes "oh all right" Fran and Max go into the bathroom, Max stars while Fran is hovering over him. "Darling please?" Max says

"I’m sorry I’m just so scared!" Fran says as Max washes his hands then puts his big muscular arms around her and guides her back to there "bed" on the floor. There’s a fire going and its almost burned out. Max checks to see if Grace is asleep. She is so Max flips off the TV then there’s like a plop sound by the door. He looks over there’s a envelope on the floor from the mail slot in the door. "Oh my god Max……."Fran said. She’s grabbing on his arm more tightly than ever before. He can feel her trembling. He feels so bad.

"Darling stay here." Max gently takes her arm and removes it from his other one he goes over and picks it up, it reads: I GIVE UP. I WILL LEAVE YOUR PRETTY LITTLE BODAY ALONE………………………………. UNTIL LATER MY LOVE….

"Fran this guy is sick. But is seems as though he has subsided."

"Yeah I feel a LITTLE better but not all together. Just lets go to sleep. I have to get a lot of stuff done." Fran said

"Yes of course darling." Max said the both laid down together, Max has his arms protectively around her.

(THE HALLOWEEN PARTY, MASTER BEDROOM)

Fran and Max are getting on there costumes. Fran is sitting on the bed waiting.

"Fran I’m not going out dressed like this." Max said through the bathroom door

"Come on Maxwell. Don’t you want me to see me my very revealing costume? Fran asks seductively

"Yes well alright" Max says as he comes out in his whole superman outfit and cape.

"Oh Max you looks so handsome! This is perfect. Ok this will work hang on let me go get mine on I have my hair so done so it will work" Fran said running in the bathroom. Max is in front of the mirror trying to get the superman "wave" in his hair. "Sweetie?" Fran asks she is standing there in her wonder woman outfit. She has the crown thing in her hair the way that wonder woman wore it. She had the very reveling bodice, then The boots went up to her knees. And a golden lasso. "You like?"

"I love." Max said as he takes her into her his arms "Now lets go save the world!" They go on the bed when they hear a knock. "Come in" Grace comes in with her 1930’s starlet outfit followed by Brighton in a cap, and the boots that go up to you knees.

"Oh you guys look perfect! I love it!" Fran said excitedly

"Dad, you don’t look to shabby yourself in those tights" Brighton remarks "and Mom you look awesome!"

"Mom I came in to tell you that I got the triplets ready and Maggie, Niles and them are downstairs ready too." Grace said

"Oh yes then shall we then?" Max asks taking Fran’s arm and heads out the door.

Downstairs Fran is saying how adorable the triplets, twins , Sarah and Emily.

Everyone laughs at Niles and C.C. She’s In a professional Nanny outfit, Niles is in a very respective butler outfit with white gloves. Maggie is in a very Cinderella looking dress, and Michael looks exactly like prince Charming from the movie. They got the costumes from Maxwell’s production of Cinderella. Sarah and Emily are in a double stroller, Sarah in he Pumpkin outfit and Emily in her princess outfit. The twins are in a double stroller that there almost to big for. Eve is very cute as pebbles and Jonah is adorable dressed as Bam Bam. The Triplets are laying in a stroller wrapped in green laying together( they really do look like peas.) "Well then Everyone since I’m hosting this party Fran and I will have no time really to watch the little ones so if the following will work out: Niles and C.C you take Emily and Sarah in there stroller, Maggie and Michael you can take the triplets the should just sleep the rest of the night, and Gracie and Brighton you can take Jonah and Eve. If you see anything suspicious let me or someone no so then lets go!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(PARTY ROOM)

The Place where the party is being held is very large and is filled with people. Fran and Max are mingling. Maggie and Michael, and Niles and C.C are too. Brighton is Trying to pick up a girl in a playboy bunny outfit. Fran wasn’t still really comfortable leaving Max’s side. They where about to do the awards for the best costumes and Max was going to do a speech. "Oh Max I’m so excited!" Fran said. Max goes up to go on stage and Fran is left alone in a sea of people.

"Ladies and Gentlemen.." Max began. All of a sudden the power goes out. The only light is from the candles in the pumpkins. There are gasps and screams one can be distinctively heard as Fran’s. Over the crowd you can her "FRAN!" The security workers finally fix the power and everything goes back on. Max gathers all the family together and does a head count there should be 14. He counts. 13. Oh My. Where’s Fran? Has anyone seen her?" Max asks in a panic.

They all shake there heads no. "No daddy, the last time I saw her was before you started to make the speech. Then a security guard came up to Max.

"Um Mr. Sheffield I found this by the circuit breaker. Where looking all over her right now but in this old mansion I mean there could be like trap doors and all that stuff so I will go help with the search." He hands Max the note to him then exits. He opens it carefully, it reads: I have your wife now say goodbye………

"Oh My GOD! We have to find her. Niles & Michael will you help me? And girls can you watch the children? Please? Alright lets go" Max says

"NO dad I want to come to." Brighton said like a man

"Brighton…… Alright we have to go though now!" Max said as he runs off.
