The black haired, pale skinned, 14 yaer old goth girl finished painting her nail's, all the while wondering what it would be like to live in Halloweentown on halloween or any time of the year. She looked to her black, white and tan dog to see if he was sleeping. He apparently was. She gave him a curious look and said ever so faintly to him,"I wonder if you would be alive or dead in Halloweentown Diageo."
He looked at her and and then repositioned himself as if to say 'meh, like I care.'
She shook her head and grinned. She thought that she heard a soft chuckle in the corner of her room, she looked to where she thought she heard it and saw nothing. She told her faithfull commpanion very wary, "I think that the wind is mocking me. Dont you?"
The only reasponse that she got out of him was a slight wag og his tail and an 'uff'.
"Hmmmm, I wonder what the world would be like as a Halloweentown world." she stated to no one in partictular.
"Oooooh, that sound's like a good idea! We can create a world that is entiraly made like the Halloweentown that Tim Burton made up!" she exclaimed, jumping up and off her bed.
She grabbed her coat and Diageo's leash, wistled for him to come and then went into the livingroom where her drunk dad always sat. She told him that she was going to take the dog for a walk and he mutterd an 'O.K.' and somthing that sounded like a 'we have a dog?'
She went to the door and grabbed her Jack The Pumpkin King messanger bag with all her stuff in it and walked out the door into the chilly autumn twilight.
Diageo looked back at where she was in a position that plainly asked, 'where are we going my mistress?' she looked at him and told him outright that they were going to the park.
When they got there they ran into her only friend, Jake. He gave her a puzzled look for he had never seen her outside around this hour when all the night goth's came out to terrorize the town.
She gave him a look that said follow me and went off twords the woods. Once at the edge of them she stopped and explained to her friend, "I came up with a marvelus plan Jake! We are going to go to that grove of seven tree's that we havent been brave enough to go check out," he gave her another puzzled look and then she rolled her eyes and went on explaining,"I think that those tree's are the Holiday Trees."
It was his turn to roll his eye's, "Sara, not this again! Havent I gotten you out of that habbit?"
"No, I will never give up on the Nightmare Before Christmas!" Sara retaliated. She then took off the ring that her mother gave her and explained once again the reasons for her obbsesseviness over Nightmare, "My mom told me to never give up on my dreams when she gave me this," she showed the ring that had the words "Where we can gaze into the stars" upon it,"and I never have! She would not be looking down on me from her perch in the stars if I haddent!"
He rolled his eyes again and then asked,"What is the idea that you came up with 'O Mighty One?!"
Sara laughed and then started to explain her idea. When she was done she grinned and said to him,"I already have a fool proof plan that I hope he accepts."
With that the two teens and the dog walked into the forrest and was soon upon the grove of seven trees.
As they came up to them they herd shouting ahead. They looked into the grove and saw some of the goths that hated Sara. They also hated Jake but that was because he was friend's with Sara. Sara dug around in her bag and found the thing she was looking for.
It was a white stick that was about the size of a new pencil. Except it diddnt have an eraser or any lead in it for that matter. She grinned at her friend and then stepped into the clearing. Gripping the two ends of the rod she twisted and it suddenly grew to about 5 feet 5 inches tall.
She whipped it around in a circle and a violet ribben came out ogf the end. She said ever so sweetly to the kids in the center of the grove,"Hey, Whatcha doin guy's?" as she said this she flicked the tip of the stave and the ribben lighted up with silver lightning.
They turned twords her and the tallest, a girl, grinned. From behind one of the tree's a voice boomed, "WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT HUMANS?? YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED INTO THIS SACRED PLACE!!"
The girl looked back at what was speaking and said to that thing,"Well, you are now in trubble, one of my friends is here."
Sara grinned and stepped farther into the clearing and said,"Sorry Delighla, but i'm not your friend and there's two of us." As she said this Jake stepped up beside her.
Sara looked to wher most of the goth's were standing and saw the one person that she addored standig in front of a tree with a pumpkin shaped door.
She exclaimed with a slight shriek, "JACK SKELLINGTON! THE PUMPKIN KING!"
