A young girl at about the age of eight was walking through her neighborhood with a huge smile on her face, today was her favorite holiday; Halloween. She had brown hair that was in a pony tail; but for Halloween she turned her hair a light sky blue, she also hazel eyes. She was dressed up as her favorite kind of thing: a Werewolf, yes its unusual for an eight year-old, but she loves wolves. Her costume was a long sleeve turtle neck with tears at the end. It was black with blue stripes and she wore long black pants with tears at the bottom The tears were blue and she had crest necklace and a blue crescent moon on her fore heed. To top it all off she wore blue wolf ears on her head, and a belt with a blue tail on the back.

Behind her was her not as happy brother. He wore a regular t-shirt and some jeans, his hands were in his pockets as he followed his little sister who was skipping happily in front of him. 'Man, this bites,' the ten year old thought. 'I'm stuck with my little sister on Halloween night, and Tuck is throwing a party tonight! I hate siblings.' He gave a rough sigh as he straightened up a bit.

"Hey, Haley!" he said to the girl in front of him. "Are we almost done, and I didn't think you liked Halloween; seeing as if your scared of every single little thing in the world!" Haley immediately stopped and turned around to face the boy. "I am not!"

"Sure your not." The boy said with a smirk, as she was turning around he shouted. "Look out there's a spider right by your foot!!" Haley stopped as her pupils shrunk, "AHHHH!" She gave a shriek as she ran behind the boy.

"Hahahaha!!" The boy laughed as Haley trembled behind him. " You - actually - bought - that!" He said between laughs.

"Dylan!" Haley said as she stepped in front, "That wasn't nice!!" Dylan stopped laughing immediately as a sad expression came over his face, "Your right, it wasn't nice." She looked up at him a look of surpise over her face. "But it was extremely funny!!" the boy started his laughing fit again.

"Huh!" She pouted as she turned around and started walking again.

"Hey wait up!"


It was about nine O'clock when Dylan asked, "Please can we go home now!?" Haley kept skipping ahead and said nonchalantly. "Nope." Dylan was about to make her change her mind when he saw two of his friends walking towards them.

"Hey, Dj!" A boy with blond hair said as they started walking together. "Hi Josh, Toby." Dylan said to both the boys, "Hey dude," Josh started in a whisper. "Why in the world are you hanging out with your sister on Halloween!"

"Its not like a wanted to!" Dylan replied in a harsh whisper, "My stupid parents said that I have to make sure she got a lot of candy."

"Well," the boy named Toby said, "looks like her bags almost full, soooo, " He grinned at the other boys. "Lets ditch her."

"What!? I just can't ditch my little sister!!"

"Hey, man, keep it down, and of course you can." Toby said plainly. "I ditch my little sister all the time, and I don't get in any trouble, I just say she ran off or something."

"Well," Dylan looked down. "Haley gets scared very easily, and I don't won't her bawling like a baby when i bring her home." "Awwwww," Josh's voice rose in pitch. "Look at the big brother trying to protect his baby sister!" He made fake sniffles.

"Shut up!" Dylan said lightly butting his elbow in the blonde boys stomach. "Fine, I'll do it." he said sighing. "Alright! And I know just the place to ditch her, follow along." Toby winked at the other two as he walked up to the little happy eight year old.

"Hey Haley." He said in an innocent voice, "Looks like you got a lot of candy in that bag!" The young girl shook her head, "Nope, its not enough, I want to fill my bag all the way to the top!!"

"Wait! I have an idea." The boy said in a fake enthusiastic voice. "I know this one house that gives a bunch of candy, handfuls! Wanna see it!?" Haley looked up gleefully.

"You bet."


"Ummm Toby, are you sure there's a house out here?" Haley asked, they were on a small narrow path in a forest; and she could barely see him in the distance, "Yeah, of course there is! Its only a little farther!" He then looked back at the others boys, tipping his head as if saying, "Get up here!" The two boys nodded in understanding as they walked past Haley and up to Toby.

"Alright, here's the deal boys," Toby whispered to them. "When I say now, we ditch her, there's a barely noticed path on are left coming up. Run as fast as you can so she can't keep up." They nodded.

"Okay," he started as he looked to the left, "Now!!" not bothering whispering anymore he shouted the word and started sprinting in the direction of the smaller path with the other two boys following.

"Guys!" The young girl said as she looked around, they had gotten ahead of her and she couldn't she them anymore. She gulped as she heard sprinting in the distance.

Panic started taking over her as she started breathing heavily and she twisted her head looking around the area. 'They left me!' She thought. 'They left me!!' In a daze she started running in the right direction unknowingly going off the path. "Guys this isn't funny where are you!!" she yelled as tears started to fill her eyes.

She kept running not knowing which direction she was going, or where she was going. She tightly closed her eyes wishing that this was all a bad dream, and that she was really in her home eating all of her Halloween candy.

She opened her eyes and screamed as she saw she was going to run into a tree at full throtle. A large 'Bang!' sound came as she collided with the tree.

"Oh, my poor nose." she rubbed her nose as tears started to fall down her cheeks, she looked up and saw something peculiar. The tree was in a circle, along with four other trees, curious she got up and went to stand in front of the tree.

"OOoo." On the front of the tree there was a smiling, Jack - O - Lantern, once again curiosity got the better of her as she opened the door and peered inside.

She looked down into a dark empty hallow, sighing she pulled back and started walking away, suddenly a wind came from the tree and started sucking her in, "Eeekkk!' she shrieked as she was pulled inside, not knowing where she would end up.

----------------

The girl woke up with a headache and looked up to see a sign that read 'Halloween Town' 'Hmmm, Halloween Town' Haley got up and started walking down the path and into the town. 'Maybe they can help me get home.'

As she got farther down the path she started to hear singing,

This is Halloween!

This is Halloween!

Halloween! Halloween!

Halloween! Halloween!

In this town we call home,

every hail to the pumpkin song

'Well, they have to be nice if they sing!' She thought as she came into the outskirts of the town.

Round That Corner Man

Hiding in The Trash Can

Somethings Waiting To Pounce

And How You'll

Scream!

She jumped and covered her hand with her mouth making sure she wouldn't yelp, 'Wow, that sounded close!'She gasped as she came around the corner and saw ghouls, and goblins, and monsters of all kinds. She quickly hid behind a trash can near a lizard fountain and tried to stay calm as the song continued.

Tender Lumplings Everywhere

Lifes No Fun without A Good Scare!

Thats Our Job

But We're Not Mean

In Our Town Of Halloween

'Alright Haley stay calm, maybe they're all just wearing really good costumes!' She looked up and saw a clown and sighed, until of course, she noticed it didn't have a face, 'Okay, maybe they are real!'

Our Man Jack

Is King Of The Pumpkin Patch

Everyone Hail To The Pumpkin King Now!

This Is Halloween

This Is Halloween

Halloween! Halloween!

Halloween! Halloween!

In This Town

We Call Home

Everyone Hail To The Pumpkin Song!

She dared looking up as her pupils shrunk and she saw a skeleton rising up out of the fountain, 'Right, Great Hiding Spot Haley! Right Next To the Freaky Skeleton!!'

La La La La La La

La La La La La La

La La La

Whoooo!

She started to breath heavy again as she watched the Erie skeleton rise from the fountain. As the skeleton finally got out of the fountain everyone was cheering and congratulating each other.

'I Have Got To Get Out Of Here!!' she started to quietly exit when she felt something on her legged, slowly she looked down.

" Spa, Spa, Spa,"her pupils shrank, "SPIDER!!" Haley shrieked as she jumped from her hiding spot and immediately wished she hadn't, she was standing right in front of the skeleton who was looking down at her with a curious face.

"Well. hello there fellow creature." The skeleton said bending so that he was eye level with her.

At first the girl wouldn't even move, she just stood there staring into his nonexistent eyes, the skeleton cocked his skull to the side, "Are you alright?" He then waved a boney hand in front of her face.

Once again the girl started breathing heavily as she started backing up trying to keep calm but at the same time freaking out 'I have to get out of here!'she turned on her heels and started running toward the graveyard.

'Wonder what that was all about,' The skeleton thought to himself.


As Haley came to a stop she put her hands on her knees trying to catch her breath, she gulped trying to stop the heavy breathing and sat down in front of a tombstone.

"Why do these things always happen to me!" she thought aloud as tears started to swell up in her eyes. "And why do I always have to be a coward!!" she almost yelled but remembered to keep her voice down.

One by one the tears started to cascade down her face as she hugged herself pulling her knees up to her chest and putting her head down and them.

She was scared, petrified, she loved Halloween, but hated the monsters and creatures that came along with it, all she wanted to do right now was be in bed while her father was telling her a bedtime story then eating a bit of candy and going to sleep.

But in her mind she doubted ever that she will ever get to she her father again.


Jack Skellington sat in a big black iron chair listening to the prizes being given out one by one, he was fidgety because it was like this every year, they just changed what would be won and give out more trophy's.

He was getting impatient because he wanted to see where the little creature he meet had run off to, they hadn't had a newcomer in quite a while and he wanted to make a good impression for himself and his town.

He saw her run off into the graveyard and then banish over the hill, he just wished the mayor would hurray, although the mayor can go on and on and on about little non-important details.

Jack looked to see if the mayor was watching as he slowly got up from his seat and sliped away to the graveyard, and he opened the gate and it made an erie reaking noise, although he was quite use to it by now.


Haley's head shot up as she heard a large creaking noise coming from about ten feet away. She looked over the tombstone and gasped as she saw the skeleton man entering the graveyard.

She quickly put her head down as he looked her way, 'Please, Please don't tell me he saw me!' she prayed in her mind as she heard footsteps nearing her position.

'I have to get out of here!!' Haley jumped out from her spot as she started running to the right, but she soon regretted it as she hit something and fell back down.

"Right in the nose again!" Haley looked up and held back a shriek as she saw the tall erie like skeleton in front of her."Why Hello there," Jack said as he bent down to become eye level with her.

"I don't think we got properly introduced last time." He stretched out his bony hand, "I'm Jack Skellington, The Pumpkin King" Haley stared at the bony skeleton hand and started breathing very, very hard as her pupils shrunk and she started backing away though she was still on the ground.

Seeing the girl's reaction he raised a nonexistent eyebrow, "There's no reason to be afraid, I won't hurt you." he said in a soothing voice. Haley looked at the bony hand, to his gentle smile, and back to his hand, hesitantly she scooted forward and after a moment griped his hand with a small grasp.

Once she did Jack's smile grew bigger as he lightly shaked her hand, "And you would be?" Haley looked up and pondered, 'Should I tell him? He is nice, I guess it wouldn't hurt."

She gulped down the lump in her throat and said, "Haley". Jack nodded as he stood up at his full height and said, "Well, Haley, as you can see, I am a skeleton, and I'm guessing you're a Werewolf."

For the first time since she was lost, Haley smiled a little, only a little, but it was still there, "Well, actually, I'm just dressed up as a Werewolf, I'm really just a human."

She could see Jack's smile falter and turn into a confused frown, "Human? Thats nearly impossible." This time Haley cocked an eyebrow. "Why?"

"Well," Jack started putting his bony hand up to his chin and absent mindingly pacing around,"There are two reason's."

"One: only one human has never been to Halloween Town before, and they were nearly dead. Mainly because this is the land of the living dead, so they would have to be dead and they weren't dead so they still shoudn't have been here; although they were close to death, but still alive...." He stopped and turned to see the girl will her eyebrow still up and her head cocked to a side.

"Sorry, I ramble sometimes, and plus you're probably very confused." Haley nodded not understanding a word he said moments before. "Well, to simply put it, a live human can not be in the land of the living dead since they aren't dead."

"Oooohhhhh." She finally got it as she stood up, "As I was saying, Two, You have wolf ears and a tail, although you still have human ears two, which is quite peculiar to have both."

Haley giggled a little as he finished, "You silly, these aren't real ears and a real tail, there just costume props." she stated as she reached her hands up to the ears and started to take them off.

She pulled on them and gave a little "Ow!" Haley lifted both of her eyebrows as she felt pain coming from the ears, "Man! Dylan didn't glue these on my head did he!?" She turned her head so that she could she her tail and lightly pulled on it.

Once again she winced as she tried to pull the so called 'costume prop' off, "Come on." She started to panic as she kept pulling harder and harder on the tail ignoring the small waves of pain coming.

After several attempts she finally sighed and sat down, "oh, I give up, I don't know what my brother did but I can't get them off!" She sniffled fighting back tears, "I hate him!!"

"You know," Jack started bending down so that he was once again eye level with her, "Maybe you shouldn't blame your brother if your not sure he did it." Haley looked at him, the tears still in the brim of her eyes, "But he always does these things to me!"

"I'm just saying, maybe you should consider other factors, or options before jumping to any irrational conclusions, or making false accusations." Haley wiped the tears from her eyes and cocked her head to the side, "You use a lot of big words."

The skeleton chuckled at this, although it wasn't kind of the chuckle she expected to hear from a skeleton, she expected to hear a loud crackle, but his laugh was whole-hearted. and kind.

"And plus," the skeleton stood up again, "There is a myth in Halloween Town that when a human comes to the town, they become what they're wearing, if they are wearing anything."

The girl stood up and looked at the skeleton, "Really?" Jack nodded, "But the only reason why its' a myth is because we haven't been able to prove it, the one human that came here long ago was dressed as a regular human though, so we couldn't be sure."

"So you just haven't been able to verify it?" Haley asked, "Yes, in some manner, but we wouldn't really need to since humans never come to Halloween town."

"Well," Haley put on a small smile again, "I guess I'm proof." Jack smiled and he started to speak again, "I suppose you are, but theres one thing thats been bothering me since you said you were a human, how did you get here?"

"Oh," Haley looked down thinking a bit and then continued, "I came here threw a door with a Jack-O-Lantern on it." Jack face lit up and he said, "Of course, you came from the holiday doors!"

"Holiday what?" "Holiday Doors, tell me, were there four other doors with it, were they all in a circle?" Haley nodded as hope started to rise in her, maybe she would get to see her dad again.

"So does that mean I can go home!?" She smiled up at the skeleton with puppy dog eyes being as innocent as she could be, Jack couldn't help but smile back.

"Yes," then his smile faltered, "but you can only go back on a certain holiday." "Well, I'll just go now then, it is Halloween." Jack put his bony fingers together as he looked at the girl, "There's a problem with going back right now."

Haley smile turned into a frown as she was once again getting confused, "Why?" "You see," Jack put his hips and sighed, "Halloween is over."

"But its only like ten o'clock, how is it over?" Jack cleared his throat as he started speaking again, "Its actually about half past one right now." Haley's eyes widened as she heard this information, "What?!"

Jack rubbed his head as he looked at the small girl, "Well, you can still get back home, you would just need to wait for the next holiday to come, which is, i think, Thanksgiving."

"Thanksgiving?! Isn't that like a month away?!" Haley started to panic again as thoughts popped up in her head, 'What is dad gonna do? Think i'm dead!'

"Are you sure I have to wait for a holiday?!" Jack crossed his arms and thought, "Yes, I'm pretty sure." Haley looked up at him, "How sure?" "Well, about 95%"

"But my father is gonna freak! I mean, hes going to go out looking for me and everything!!" Haley started to panic even more as she subconsciously started running around Jack circles while flailing her arms and mumbling statements he couldn't understand.

"Hey, hey," Jack said as he grabbed the girl by the shoulders lightly. "Calm down." Haley stopped immediately by his touch but wasn't scared or uncomfortable, as she noticed his touch actually felt warm; and not cold as she expected.

"Are you calm?" he asked, she nodded her head and looked up at him as he took his hand up and rubbed his nonexistent temples. "I don't know what will happen in your world, and I'm sorry that I can't do anything about it."

"You shouldn't apologize you know," he looked down and saw that the girl had an agitated look on her face, "I dislike when people apologize for things they shouldn't, or things they don't need to."

"And why is that." "Well," Haley crossed her arms, "Why apologize when you didn't even do anything, like when a family member dies and your friend say, 'Oh I'm sorry' sorry for what, they didn't do anything, so why apologize, i guess I'm rambling now huh?" Haley looked up at Jack and smiled.

"Yes well, we all ramble sometimes I guess." Haley giggled at this but quickly stopped as she thought of something. "But Jack, where am I suppose to stay until Thanksgiving?!"

"You'lljust stay in my guest room, if thats fine with you."

"Sure it is." Haley said in a sort of dazed voice as she yawned, Jack looked down at her, "Oh, I'm sorry, your probably very tired, maybe we should go now, huh?"

Haley looked up at him as she rubbed her eyes. "You apologized again for no reason." "Oh, sorry" Jack apologized once more as he gained a small growl from the little girl.

"Umm, how about we just go now." Haley yawned again as she nodded and began to walk but stopped as she felt strong arms pick her up and cradle her. "What are you doing?" she asked a little frightened.

"Well, seeing how tired you are I thought that I should just carry." Haley didn't protest and actually snuggled in little closer glad she didn't have to walk anymore.

Jack looked down at her and smile and he saw her wolf ears go flat against her head and her tail go in-between her legs but then sighed as he started walking toward his home and though, 'Tomorrow is going to be a loooonngg day.'
