Before I start Chapter Two, a bit of explanation. This is just a completely weird, slightly random, holiday story I came up with in Homeroom. Thanks to my friends Zodiac Sefirosu and futureauthor13, I have many great ideas. I would also like to thank a friend who prefers to remain anonymous for her idea about the witches. Thanks guys!
I do not own AD:JL, blah blah blah.

Enjoy!


The Pumpkin That Ate Everyone Chapter Two

"Jake!" At the sound of his name, Jake turned. He had decided to cheat and be a dragon for Halloween this year. Everyone told him it was very realistic.

"Emma? Fu Dog?" he asked, dumbfounded.

"Kid, we got a problem. There's a swarm of Yutarvurian bats flying around. They eat pumpkins, and the pumpkins, once injected with their saliva, become vicious, man-eating zombie monsters. Sorta like Frankenstein," Fu Dog interjected.

"Actually," Emma pointed out, "We got two problems."

"What?"

"First, there's that whole zombie monster thing, but the second problem is that this Halloween is getting more cliché by the minute!" She looked around. "Where's Haley?"

"She went with Spud and Trixie down the block while I finished up here," Jake replied. "Why?" Screams began to emerge from where Jake had gestured. Emma had an odd look on her face, sort of like someone faced with rotting vegetables.

"That's why."

People began to rush around them on all sides, screaming and shouting. In the heat of the moment, Emma was able to dragon up.

"Come on!" she shouted over the din. "We need to find Haley!" Fu Dog leapt on Jake's back, and the two dragons made their way to their little sister.


A little further down the block-

Haley, Spud, and Trixie were being buffeted left and right by the screaming crowds.

"What's going on?" Haley asked.

"I don' know, but we need to get out of here, fast!" Trixie replied. Then they saw why everyone was screaming.

Witches, that's right, witches were everywhere, swooping through the skies. A lavender blur suddenly picked up Haley and Trixie, and a red one picked up Spud. Haley dragoned up and flew out Emma's clasp. Emma groaned at the sight of the witches.

"How cliché can you get?" she asked the night. "I mean, come on! Green skin, hooked noses, warts everywhere and brooms, brooms! It's right out of a fairy tale!" She and Jake set Trixie, Spud, and Fu Dog down on a rooftop.

"You should be safe here," Jake told them. Then he turned to his sisters. "We'd better take care of those witches," he told them. They nodded wordlessly and followed him.

"Hey witches!" Jake shouted at them. The three witches looked up.

"Yes, dragon? Or should I say dragons?" the witch with the most warts cackled. Emma stiffened.

"What are you doing, scaring poor trick-or-treaters like that?" Emma shouted. "You know very well you can't do stuff like this! Otherwise this happens!" Emma gestured a purple claw toward the chaos beneath them, now doubled by the appearance of three dragons. The youngest witch, well the one with the least warts, sighed.

"Alright. We were just having some Halloween fun." She zoomed off into the night, followed by the other two.

"Look out for the cats!" the wartiest witch cackled as she followed the other green witches back home.

"Cats?" Haley asked. Then feeling a horrible dread, Emma, Haley, and Jake, turned. The street was now devoid of people, but was full of something else entirely. Cats. Huge, monstrous cats filled the street below them. As one, they looked up and meowed.

The resulting sound caused the windows on every building on the street to be broken. Emma groaned and put her head in her claws.

"Great. Cats! And we still haven't found the Yutarvurian bats! When will this cliché nightmare end?"


It will be a long, long night for Emma. Well, at least she's not stuck at home reading Pride and Prejudice. I'd prefer dragon powers and fighting giant, evil cats over reading Pride and Prejudice, wouldn't you?
