Have you ever wonder where holidays have come from? If you never did than you better pay attention for this story you are about to hear is about a young human girl living in one of the holidays world. Let us began in the town that is always Halloween every day. The citizens are all monsters and are very odd in all shapes and sizes. The monsters in Halloween Town are always busy with their work and always practicing their scares for Halloween of the Human World. Well far off from the town is a very tall looking tower like. For which it look that it would be falling down. Inside this creepy tower is a living rag doll cooking something in the pot that she had made. This rag doll has a colorful mix pattern dress on, she has stitches about almost all of her fabric skin. Her hair is long and it's red like a rose. Next to this rag doll is a ghost dog with a pumpkin nose and a red collar. This ghost dog is very friendly and very playful. The rag doll saw the ghost dog holding a stick in his mouth. She said so sweetly and gentle "no Zero, not now boy. I'm cooking a special meal for Jack when he comes home from the meeting". Zero whine a little in disappointed. The rag doll smiled and said "don't worry, I'm sure I will have time to play with you after I get supper done, okay"? Zero done a summerssult in the air and barked happily. The rag doll giggled and kept siring the pot with a big brown wooden spoon. Zero put the stick near the door and floated up the stairs and went into a room with some chemical tools on the table. He flew to his little bed and slept while the rag doll was cooking supper.
After twenty minutes the rag doll was finish with supper. She grab the bowl and put a weird kind of soup into the bowl and put it on the table that was gray. Just as she put the soup on the table that is when she heard a loud footsteps walking into the door. She looked up to see a skeleton man was dress in all black and had a black bat bow tie came walking into the kitchen. He said with delight "is that crab leg soup that I smell". The rag doll said "I thought it would be great for a surprise for you". The skeleton smiled and said "oh Sally, you know what I like". Sally said "I always do it for you, Jack". Jack smiled and kiss his lovely rag doll wife. Zero flew down after hearing his master's voice and was happy to see him. Zero began to lick Jack on the face. Jack smiled and said "okay boy, I miss you too". Sally giggled and said "he been trying to get me to play stick with him". Jack finally got Zero to stop licking him and said "well after supper I go and play stick with you boy". Zero barked excitedly. Jack laugh and he and Sally sat at the table to eat their supper together. Once they finish and after Sally finish the dishes Jack, Sally, and Zero went outside to play stick. They all went to a creepy old looking graveyard that was all mile around to see of. Jack began to play stick with Zero. Zero love fetching the stick and bringing it back to his master. Sally watch as the two of them were playing. Moments later as Jack was about to be done. He and Sally heard a cry from a baby. At first they thought it was their imagination but then they heard it again. Sally ask "Jack, did you hear that"? Jack nodded and said "sounds like it's coming from the Hinterlands". The both went into the Hinterlands with Zero following behind the two. They kept on hearing the baby crying and they soon were getting closer to the sound. Once they got close enough they seen a basket cover in pink ribbon. Jack said to Sally. "Sally, you better stay back. In case if this is a trap". Sally nodded and watch Jack walking close to the basket. Once he got close enough he peek inside to see a baby crying.
Jack's eyes sockets grew wide and was shock and yet carious of seeing not just a baby but a human baby in the Hinterlands. Jack looked up and looked around to make sure that there were anyone else around or possibly a trap. He saw the baby and for some reason he felt his heart began to grow for this little baby. He smiled and pick the child up into his arms. Once he picked the child up the baby calm down and stop crying. He smiled and said in a soft voice "there, there, you'll be safe". He turn and nodded at Sally to come closer. Sally walk forward and she saw the baby in his arms. She began to cry. She said tearfully "oh, who could be so cruel leaving a helpless child out like that"? Jack said "I don't know but lets bring the child to Dr. Finklestein laboratory, he'll know what to do". Sally nodded and the two of them rush the child back to Halloween Town and ran to Dr. Finklestein's house. Zero floating right behind them just looking at the child in Jack's arms. Once they made it to Dr. Finklestein's house, Jack pound on the door. The door open revealing a small little man with a hump on his back. He had a brown dirty shirt with tear up black pants. He said "hello how may I help you". Jack ask "Igor, is Dr. Finklestein home"? Igor said "yes, he is". Igor polity let Jack and Sally in. Once inside a ignored voice said "who dare to desterb me while I am working"? Jack called out "Dr. Finklestein it's me Jack Skellington and my wife Sally". Jack turn to see a duck billed face man in the wheelchair rolling to him. He had a white coat and had dark black sunglasses on. Jack said "please doctor, we found this human child in the Hinterlands, and she may need help". Dr. Finklestein looked at the child in Jack's arms and was surprised. He said "I take a look then". He took the child from Jack's arms and took the baby into the laboratory room. Igor was following behind Dr. Finklestein. Sally and Jack sat down and waited for news. Sally looked at Jack and said "oh Jack, I hope nothing is wrong with the baby". Jack put Sally close to him and said "I hope not either, Sally".
After a couple of hours, Dr. Finklestein came rolling out with his wheelchair. Igor was right beside him. Jack and Sally saw them and both stood up and walk up to Dr. Finklestein. Jack ask "how is the child"? Dr. Finklestein said "doing well, I test this child and it's a girl and it is hundred percent human. There is nothing wrong with her and she is very healthy". Sally and Jack gave a sigh of relief. Jack ask "so why would someone just left her out there then"? Dr. Finklestein shrug and said "I am not sure, Jack but at least she is not ill with any bugs". Jack nodded and looked at his wife. He ask in a whisper so that no one but Sally could hear. "Sally, why don't we adopt her as our own"? Sally looked at Jack and started to cry and smiled. "Oh Jack, that is so wonderful". Jack looked at Dr. Finklestein and said "doctor, if you don't mind but we want to adopt her as our own". Dr. Finklestein shook his head in shock and yelled "human in Halloween Town, not only that but a human as the Princess of the Pumpkin Patch"! Jack is the leader of the town and the holiday as well. He is a king of the pumpkin patch. Jack said "yes, I don't see what's wrong with that, besides my father did marry a human being". Dr. Finklestein knew that Jack was right and said "all right you two win. But I am a bit skeptical about this". He rolled back into the laboratory with Igor still walking beside him. Sally dreamily said while looking at Jack, "imagine what she would be like as our daughter". Jack said "I'll teach her all she must know to scare the livings out of humans in the human world". Sally hugged Jack and said "this is the best thing that had ever happen to me". Jack smiled and hugged his wife saying "me too dear". After three hours the citizens of Halloween had heard about this human child and waited to see what Jack has to say. Finally Jack and Sally came out with the baby girl in Sally's arms. The town residents began to ask question about the baby and who is this baby and why the baby was in the Hinterlands.
The mayor had calm everyone down, he had a long hat and a suit with the the banner on his shirt says "mayor" on it. He had a two figure face one happy and one sad/worry face. He had his sad/worry face on because he was worry and scare of why the human was even close to Halloween Town. Jack thank the mayor and he announced his news to everyone. "Listen Everyone! Me and my wife Sally had decided. We decide to keep this human baby as our own". Everyone were surprised and shocked at the same time. The mayor said "but Jack, she is a human, there is no way she can become queen of the pumpkin patch". Jack eyes sockets turn to an anguish look. He said in a demotic tone "mayor, I don't need you or anyone putting her down". He looked at the crowds and yelled out "that's go for all of you, If I hear anyone putting our new daughter down you'll answer to me"! Everyone backed away and knew not to mess with him even when he is angry. Sally was a bit worried about her husband behavior toward the town folks but Jack kept his cool down. Jack looked at his little new daughter and said in a loud voice "Our daughter name is Violet and she is our new Princess of the Pumpkin Patch". Jack went over to Sally and he put his right arm around Sally and his left arm underneath Violet. The two of them went pass the crowds and went to the house. There were a lot of gossips about their odd princess but some just decided to just accept of who their princess is. Even the mayor just had to accept the Princess since it was Jack's idea to keep her he will accept Violet as Jack's daughter. But for some others they could not see a human as the Queen of the Pumpkin Patch.
For two in half months Jack and Sally loved their new daughter. Even Zero loved Violet, he plays with her all the time. Even though he gets his ears pull by Violet. Jack adore his little girl and would do anything for her. Sally always there for her and always sings to Violet. Violet loves hearing her mother's soft singing voice and goes to sleep. Even sometimes Jack sings her to sleep (when he get a chance to do it). Jack and Sally knew that their lives are now complete with them being together and having a child of their own. But one night when they were asleep. Three kids who cause a lot of troubles though the town had heard the news of their new princess. One is a girls who is a witch and wears a mask, the other two are boys, and they too wears mask, on is a devil and the other is a skeleton. They three snicked into the room where Violet was sleeping at. The girl said "all right Lock (looking at the devil) you grab the child, and Barrel (looked at the skeleton) make sure that the baby don't whine or scream". Barrel said "okay". Lock looked at the witch saying "what about you, Shock"? Shock looked at Lock and snarl saying "I help you get her into the bag, you idiot". Lock grabbed the brown bag and gave it to Shock. Shock held it while Lock and Barrel went to get Violet. Just as Lock was about to grab hold of Violet. Violet open her eyes and began to cry. Lock whisper "Barrel, shut the kid up". Barrel grab hold of Violet's mouth and she kept crying but couldn't let out a sound. Shock said "hurry up before Jack and Sally finds out". Lock grab the baby with Barrel still covering her mouth. The both walk over to Shock and threw her into the bag. The three of them quickly shut the bag up. You could still hear Violet screaming in the bag but not loud for her parents to hear her. But it was loud enough for Zero to hear. Zero woke up and flew thought the wall and into Violet's room to see what's the matter.
Zero saw the three kids holding a bag and trying to get out of the window. Zero knew that they had Violet and he growl and began to bark so Jack and Sally could hear him. Shock said "drat, that dog caught us". Barrel ask "now what"? Lock said "just don't stand here dummy's, let's get out of here". The three were trying to escape but Zero stop them and kept growling at them. They backed up and they were kind of scared. Lock said "nice doggy, nice doggy". After two minutes Jack and Sally turn the light on and saw Zero stopping the three kidnappers. The three kids turn and they saw Jack and Sally looking straight at them. Barrel yelled "we been caught"! Lock yelled "no kidding dummy head"! Jack said angrily "you dare to kidnap my daughter". The three kids were frightened and didn't know what to say. Jack saw the bag and ran up to it and open it up. He saw his girl and picked her up and took her over to Sally. Sally was glad to see her daughter was well. Lock, Shock, and Barrel ran out and fell out the window. They hit the ground but were all right and ran off into the graveyard. Jack looked at Sally then at Violet. He said to Sally "from now on she will be sleeping with us until she turns one". Sally agreed and the two of them took their daughter along with the crib that Violet was sleeping in and took the crib and the child to their room. Zero slept in their room too just encase those three kids come back. Jack put the crib down and Sally put Violet in the crib. Violet slept soundly in the crib. Sally looked at Jack and ask "Jack, do you think she knows that we are protecting her"? Jack shrugged and said "I'm not sure dear, but I know for certain those three will be band from Halloween Town forever". Jack and Sally went back to bed and for the rest of the night there were no sound at all. It was competently quiet.
