I really wanted to make a sequel to "NiGHTS: Journey Into New York", so here it is!

Note: I do not own the NiGHTS characters. If I did, I would have said so already.

NiGHTS: Journey Into Paris

Chapter One: Jackle Ruins Everything

"Outta the way, make room! Move it, I said MOVE IT!" Reala pushed another Nightopian off the picnic table.

NiGHTS grinned and chuckled. "It's a shame you don't like Nightopians."

Reala grumbled, "Nasty little vermin is what they are." He picked up one that was too busy crying to fly away, and he threw it over his shoulder. For good luck, I suppose.

NiGHTS drapped a pink and purple checkered blanket over the table as she said, "Isn't Memory Forest the perfect place for a picnic?"

Reala leaned back in mid-air and sighed contently. "It sure is. No noise, no un-romantic area, and best of all..."

NiGHTS and Reala both finished happily, "No Jackle."

"DID SOMEONE SAY MY NAME???"

NiGHTS groaned and her heart sank. She gave Reala a look that said, "We're screwed."

Reala understood and he decided to take care of the situation. Turning to Jackle, who had just appeared out of nowhere, he was about to tell him off, but Jackle spoke first.

"Hey! You guys are having a picnic?! And you didn't invite me???" Then Jackle brightened. "Wait! I got it! This is a surprise picnic for me and you were wondering who's gonna invite me secretly!"

Reala growled, "It's NiGHTS' and mine's first date picnic. You aren't even supposed to think you'd be allowed to be invited!"

Jackle looked confused, "Since when were you and NiGHTS going out?"

"Since before you interrupted our picnic." NiGHTS replied sourly.

"A PICNIC?! AM I INVITED?!?!" Jackle beamed.

Reala groaned in frustration and yelled, "Are you trying to ruin our date?!"

"I thought you said it was a picnic." Jackle looked confused again. "Why would I wanna go on a date with my best friends? That'd be weird."

"You are weird, Jackle." NiGHTS pointed out.

"THEN I CAN STAY??" Jackle shouted excitedly.

"NO!" Reala and NiGHTS shouted back at him in anger.

Jackle turned around snobbishly. "Well fine. Then I guess I won't tell you what I came here to tell you."

"Good." Reala said and turned away from him.

Jackle whipped around and said quickly, "Ok, I'll tell you anyway!"

"Can it wait?" NiGHTS asked.

"Nope!" Jackle sat on the picnic table and began his tale of...something. "A long time ago, in a Nightopia far, far away..." The Star Wars theme music started playing out of nowhere and NiGHTS and Reala looked around in confusion. But Jackle explained, "That's just a tape recorder." He took a mini tape recorder out of his cape and turned the music off. He continued, "I was minding my own business, when suddenly, a package hit my head and I went unconscious!"

"So how come you're still alive?" NiGHTS asked.

"Because I woke up! Sheesh!" Jackle silenced him and went on, "So when I came to, I wanted to see what was in the package, so I tried to open it! But it wouldn't open!"

"So why didn't you slice it open with one of your cards?" Reala asked.

Jackle then whispered, "Because that's what they would expect me to do!" He continued normally, "I eventually realized that you had to take the tape off to open the package. So I gently peeled the tape off. One by one..."

"Get to the point, already!" NiGHTS snapped impatiently.

"Ok, ok! Anyway, once I did and I opened the package, I found a piece of paper on top of hats and models that all have one thing in common, and some money." Jackle took the stuff out of his cape and showed it to NiGHTS and Reala.

"This is strange. Most of these items show pictures of this strange, gray tower." Reala noted.

"And this one IS that strange, gray tower!" NiGHTS commented, holding up a miniature model of the tower.

Jackle nodded. "And that's not all! I read the paper and it said that I won the sweepstakes!"

NiGHTS and Reala froze and stared at Jackle.

"And so I filled out a form and stuff, and then I found another piece of paper in the package that wasn't there before! And that one said that I had to go to Memory Forest to get my prize!" Jackle grinned. "And now I'm here!"

NiGHTS and Reala looked at each other. "RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Both of them were about to fly away, but a massive portal appeared and sucked the three Nightmarens in. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!" Jackle shrieked happily.

Then the portal vanished.

A second later, Clawz walked to where the Nightmarens used to be. "Meow. ...BAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You readers thought I was a normal cat, didn't you?" He continued to laugh, but then the portal reappeared and sucked Clawz in. "REEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!"

Oh dear, not again. Where will NiGHTS and her friends end up? Look at the title, duh. What will happen next? If you wanna know, please review! :D
