My second, and hopefully longer, story! I hope you like my first one 'cause I didn't, I thought it was too short, so I will have to make a better one. In this one, it will not just have fight scenes, but the scenes in between. So this time it will have a plot! Hope you like! A sequal to "Big Surprise" Cannottouchthis.

Jack was in a hurry. Halloween was coming up. In fact, Halloween was just a week away. He always liked to have everything perfect, so he spent a lot of time to make things as best as he could. Since there was no money in Halloween Town, all of his workers were for free, unless they wanted homemade beetle brownies made by Sally for their work.

Jack was starting to run out of ideas. That was bad. Every Pumpkin King before him soon retired when they ran out of ideas. Jack was convinced that he was still good at his job. But just in case, he would teach his soon to come son all that he knew, and hopefully he would be even better than Jack was. Jack was so proud to hear from Dr. Finklestein that he was to have a son. But, to add onto the pressure of Halloween this week, Sally was due to give birth this week as well. Jack had to plan his job around Sally, which was very hard because a holiday was on one day, no matter what. In a way, Jack hoped that his son would be born on Halloween. Not only that it would be easier that he would not be working, but also, The greatest Pumpkin King of all time, Jack's great great great grandfather was born on Halloween. Jack wanted his son to be just as good as his great great great grandfather was. He would always argue with Mayor. Mayor thought that the only one that could be just as good as his grandfather (I don't feel like writing Great three time over and over, so I will just write grandfather) was Jack. Jack believed that he could never be as good as his grandfather. Only his son could be that good. He believed it with all his heart.

Jack had decided to write a journal of his Halloween preparation when he first became Pumpkin King. He had pre-bought a journal for his soon to come son.

Jack had always wrote in it. He wrote in it every day, until Halloween when he would write his last entry until next year.

Day 1

I have decided to give Lock Shock and Barrel another chance to make me something scary for Halloween. Although I am not stupid enough to let them make it unsupervised. I got Sally watching them, it gives her something to do and keeps her mind off the baby. I was thinking of what to call the baby. Maybe Jack Jr., or Jeremy, or my great great great grandfathers name, Julius. Sally wants to name him Bob. Now what kind of a name is Bob. I mean, King Bob? I like the name don't get me wrong, but not for my son. It seems that J's have been good for the family.

Day 2

I have asked Mayor to clear out all of the left over leprechauns who got lost. It is not wise to mix holidays right before the main day comes. I know, I know, I have mixed holiday several times. But I learned my lesson the first time. The second time is because I had to. Also, I have asked Sally to make as many beetle brownies as she could. The workers seem to like the brownies a lot and they work harder just to get more brownies. Also they are high in protein, many of the workers are on the Atkins diet. All the better for me.

Day 3

Halloween is getting close. I have done the best I can. I have invented a machine that will help future Pumpkin Kings, such as my soon to come son. This machine can duplicate, triplicate, even quadruplicate things pertaining to Halloween. I am so proud. I hope my son can invent many things like I have and my great great great grandfather have. I also made a more realistic looking multi-colored ghost. This is going to be one of the best Halloween's ever.

Day 4

Lock Shock and Barrel came and actually volunteer to help! I do not know what the heck Sally is teaching these kids, but she sure is becoming a very good influence on them. They also measured me. They said that they were also going to make me an outfit. I can't wait to see how it looks.

Day 5

Three more days to Halloween, I have gotten Killer Kafeterias to cater. They make the best food ever. Everybody always buys from there. They have been around since 2005 B.C. and they would like to celebrate their anniversary of being to see the same year in A.D. They're the best in the business. And in honor of being Halloween's anniversary for 6000 years, I got live performances from bands of the past and the present. I got them from this world and from a place called America. I have only been there once, but they were good. I got so many kinds of music. This is going to be the Halloween Town's biggest ever Party, even bigger than the one 1000 years ago, 2000 years ago, 3000 years ago, well I guess you get the idea.

Day 6

Halloween is tomorrow, so I have today to work, and tomorrow to work on little things. All of the workers have been working so hard, so I personally made a plaque with all of their names on it. It will be posted up in the Town Hall for all to see and all the future to see. Also they have been working very hard. Those beetle brownies are also energy packed. Sally has made so many that we had to rent a small room to store them. She has taught Lock Shock and Barrel how to make Brownies and now they are making them as well. There is so many of them that the workers can have all they want, and take some home and there is still some left over. As well as my progress. I have set up everything. I set up all the wires, plumbing, tables, chairs, restrooms, everything. One last thing I had to do. I went to Dr. Finklestein and asked him to make a bed ready for Sally to give birth. I have a gut feeling that my son will be born tomorrow.

It was five o'clock in the morning on Halloween. Sally screamed. Jack woke up with a startle. He hurried and packed. He was out the door in minutes. He normally never breaks the law, but at this moment, he did not care what the speed limit was. He was going ninety mile an hour on a thirty-five mile an hour road. He got to the doctors house.

"Hey Sally, we're here, lets go…SALLY!" Jack was stupefied. How could he leave his wife at home. "I'm an idiot man, idiot idiot IDIOT! Well I guess there is no point in going back to the house to get Sally. He was here already, so why not bring the doctor to the house. Jack ran into the Office and yelled for the doctor.

"So you left without her, you moron!" laughed Dr. Finklestein. "Geezz Jack, how fast our we goin…CAR!

"I got it, I got it. It was an accident if your asking, I was in a rush."

"So you pack everything but your wife…TRUCK JACK, TRUCK!"

"I got it."

"AAAHHH! How did you get a license any way. BUS!"

"I don't need to be listening to you old man!"

"What did you call me!"

"Shut up!"

They drove to Jack and Sally's house. Sally had never been so angry.

"How could you leave me…Aahh…it hurts." yelled Sally.

"I'm so sor…"

"You better shut your mouth, or I will shut it for you, permanently! Ahh!

"Push, push." said Dr. Finklestein calmly.

"I'm pushing old man!"

"You guys better quit calling me that!"

Needless to say, this is going to be a story for the grandkids. Jack was so happy his kid was being born. And on Halloween too. He'll make his ancestors proud. Jack thought.

Hope you like it. Read and review please. I do not mean anything bad if your name is Bob. I might just update soon.
