Everything that was skeleton on her wat rattling faster than can be. She felt as if she was falling and never stopped and splat on the ground. Is this how he died? No it can't be. Emily's whole corpse was numb and her bones were cracking. She felt everything and it was like being awake in a surgery. You could feel everything but you couldn't say a word. Her eyes slowly opened and all she saw was darkness and her arm slowly turning to dust. Elder Gutknecht must have made the wrong position. She struggled in the air and turned her body around so her stomach was facing wherever she would land. Where was Jack? Has he already landed? Is he…gone? He wouldn't be dead since he already is but…is he gone? Emily didn't want to think about it.

A few minutes had passed and she was still falling into nothing. Most of her skin peeled itself off and her bones were all dusty and cracked. She just wanted it to all end. Suddenly out of nowhere she hit something hard. Her eyes widen and she was now laying on a nice floor with decorative tiles. She locked up and saw a perfectly in shape ceiling with an outstanding chandelier. How…? She looked at her body and her bones and rotting skin was fine. What just happened? She looked around and saw Jack lying beside her. He probably fainted while he was falling but he looked so at peace. Emily couldn't stand to wake him but she had to. Emily pressed her fingers against his shoulder and he stirred in his sleep. How cute…Emily shook that thought and shook him a little harder. She removed her hand quickly after she felt him move his body. He sat up and opened his eye sockets slowly. He was confused at first but when he saw Emily next to him, he remembered all of it.

Back in Halloween Town

The Mayor paced back and forth his office located in the middle of the town. He was told that jack had left the other day and couldn't believe his ears. He knew Jack was very upset and tired but he didn't intend to drive him away. Of course The Mayor thought it was his fault that he had left the town. Sally told him that he would be back but the Mayor had none of it. His sad/blue face was turned and he started to sigh in frustration. 'All my fault, should have gave him a break…' Some chattering and some shouting interrupts his train of thought and he walks over to his window. He pushes the window up and leans out the window. He sees some fellow monsters surrounding some corpse. Must be a new comer! The Mayor tries to get a better view and notices he had rotting flesh, white laid back hair, his skin was blue and his eyes were pure yellow. This corpse was laughing and smirking until he looked up and noticed The Mayor in the window. He gave an evil stare and chuckles. Who knew that Barkis Bittern survived the other corpses?

Back to Jack and Emily

"What a ride," Jack stirred.

Emily chuckled a slight at his sarcasm. Jack scratched the top of his skull and sighed in disappointment. He really thought this would be a quick journey but all this? His attention went back to the place they were in. It looked like a huge mansion but too old to find nowadays. Jack stood up and offered his hand to Emily. She of course took it with a smile and Jack pulled her up. They both looked around and the room had a piano, two big doors that must have been the entrance. Some stairs followed two directions with some paintings.

"We must of gone back in time," Emily walked over to the piano and saw a small empty vase on top. Jack looked at the paintings but no memories came to him. He came across a smaller painting of a young woman. Something in his ribs told him she was bad news but he wasn't sure.

Suddenly the doors flew open and two people waltzed in. They looked very happy and cheery. One was a woman who was quite tall and slender while the other one was a small man who seemed quite big around some parts. They look straight into Emily's direction but seemed to not notice her. Emily raised an eyebrow at this and walked over. He went to touch the woman but her hand slipped through her. She now understood. They both were in a memory!

"Jack," Emily said in almost a whisper. "We're in your memories…"

Jack walked up beside her after looking at the paintings. He stared at the two strange characters. Something about them made him nervous. As if he had to do something in front of them. They two strangers walked to the stairs and stopped walking after a few steps. They stood there smiling for a while and then the small man spoke up.

"Maudeline," the man smiled. "I knew it would go according to plan but you didn't believe me!"

The woman's face shifted to a frustrated emotion.

"I was the one you said it would, Finis!" Maudeline snapped at him.

Jack and Emily could both tell that they were both a married couple. Emily didn't understand what they were talking about but Jack tried his best to try understand. They watched them walk upstairs then taking a left. Once they disappeared out of sight, both Jack and Emily walked around each room downstairs. Jack was standing very close to Emily and she did notice. For some bizarre reason, she didn't want him to move away. He walked with his hands behind his back and his chest up high…like a King should. She then started to think about his living currently. This kind skeleton must be kicked around a lot if he came from such a place. Maybe she is stereotyping the people there but she had met a few Halloween folk once. They were travellers that thought they were amazing just because they found The Land of the Dead. Emily remembered their attitude towards the corpses and it was outrageous. They thought it would be fine if they chased around the dead children! Such monsters.

Though Jack was different, he knew how a gentleman would act. He thought of people before himself most of the time and she loved that. They walked through many weird rooms but they stopped when they reached a room with a long table which had chairs knocked over. Plates with food were spilled everywhere and a small cake splattered across the white sheets. Jack almost puked from all the mixed food and Emily almost died a second time when she saw two small figurines sticking out of the cake. She made her way over to the table and took both of them out. She wiped some cake off with her finger and looked at them. Must've been a wedding here. She looked at the male one and recognized it straight away and gasped. Then she looked at the female one and she almost turned to dust. How she hated that face.

Jack watched his new friend stand there, speechless. He walked over to her and gently placed his hand on her shoulder.

"Is everything alright," He asked.

Emily's face was blank and no emotion could be read. All her memories flooded back and she dropped both of the figurines. Jack started to grow concerned and was about to say something but laughter interrupted them. They heard the front doors slam shut and two people walk towards the same room. Emily heard the voice that she loved dearly and thought he would never hear again.

"Oh Victoria, this must be the most bests of days I've had," Victor Van Dort's voice echoed throughout the rooms and a giggle shortly after continued.
