Chapter 7: Halloween Town Mickey, Riku, and Sora walked through the graveyard of Halloween Town. Sora's costume was much more darker and realistically like a vampire than before. His nails were sharp and deadly, his teeth fangs that looked deadlier than his nails. His once light brown hair was black and straight. His outfit had changed to a long sleeved black shirt and black slacks. Riku had to admit that Sora looked eeiry and almost evil as a vampire. But he looked just as frightening. His own silver hair, silk, black, and shiny. His teeth just as deadly as his nails which were identical to Sora's. His outfit was similar to Sora's and both of their long sleeved shirts were buttoned up just enough to leave the top of their chests visible. Mickey's costume was a zombie, his face pale and scarred and his skin the same way, though still black. He was still wearing his original outfit only it was stained with blood and cut open in several places. Sora walked through the gates leading to Halloween town and saw Jack tinkering with the acid fountain. Sora walked over to him, "Jack, it's Sora, Riku, and Mickey"
Jack looked up and looked at them twice before saying, "My, my, so it is. It would seem that you look even scarier this time than you did before. How are the three of you doing"
Sally came up to them and immediately looked at Sora, "My goodness, you frightened me"
Sora smiled, "Hello Sally," he noticed her swollen belly and decided not to think of how, "It seems your expecting a Jack junior"
She smiled, "Why yes, we are just delighted. Where are Goofy and Donald"
Jack nodded, "Yes, where are those two, too frightened to return to Halloween Town"
Sora smiled, "Well no, they had other things to attend to. I can see that you have no trouble with the heartless"
Jack shook his head, "No, but I would like to discuss something with you if you don't mind"
Sora followed Jack out of hearing range while Mickey, Riku, and Sally discussed what has been going on lately. Jack looked at Sora closely, "You look marvelous Sora, my offer still stands in helping me with Halloween. I have had a hard time thinking up what to do this year, and suddenly here you are"
Sora smiled enthusiastically, "Of course, I would love to help you with Halloween"
Jack nodded and grinned, "This is splendid, I shall tell the mayor that you shall be part of the show, Riku and Mickey are free to join in with the fright as well"
Sora nodded, "Of course, so what will we be doing"
Jack walked over to him and whispered into his ear causing Sora to grin from ear to ear. Sora looked at him as he straightened up, "You will be the main attraction, I feel that you may have a talent for Halloween"
Sora nodded, "That sounds frightful Jack, when should we start rehearsing"
Jack smiled, "Well, you will be rehearsing with me so that I can teach you the best way to go about it. I believe if Riku and Mickey wish to join in I can have the mayor instruct them. But you will recieve one on one treatment so as to make sure this will make them scream"
Sora nodded, "I can't wait. Let me ask Riku and Mickey if they wish to be a part of it"
Sora ran over to them and Riku and Mickey shook their heads after he asked. Sora ran over to Jack, "It looks like they want to watch with Sally"
Jack nodded, "Completely understandable, I guess that you and I will have to be the honory scare warriors."

Halloween Night

Sora stood looking up at the fountain above his head waiting for Jacks introduction; "These frightful nights bring out the demon in all of us and thus the creatures lurking come into play while we are least suspecting it." The ground beneath Sora began to rise and soon Sora was moving up. Sora waited until everyone saw him then he turned and using the technique Jack had taught him tranformed into a bat right before their eyes. The crowd screamed as Sora flew around the audiance and made to attack them, but then he would fly towards someone else. Sora changed back when he was close to Jack and then the two of them rose into the air, with the power of Sora's ability to fly. They rose into the air and then Jack made a cloud of smoke around them and when it cleared they were gone only to appear behind the audience. Sora and Jack appearing and disappearing as they took turns saying; "In the darkness of the night we frighten." Jack said from the opposite end of the audiance, "Striking when you least expect it"
Sora rose above them and dropped the prop that looked like a victim with its' throat ripped out. Sally smiled knowing it was prop because she had made it. Then the entire audiance was enveloped in smoke and Jack and Sora appeared on top of the fountain holding the prop. Sora and Jack looked at each other and ripped the prop in half enveloping everyone in fake blood that sent chills and screams throughout the crowd. Jack smiled as Sora licked the syrup from his face. Once the crowd realized it was red syrup they looked at jack and Sora and cheered. The mayor applauded them and said to Jack, "Splendid Jack, just splendid, you even had me going for a while. Excellent work you two, absolutely marvelous." Jack and Sora floated down to the ground before the mayor. Jack took a bow and Sora disappeared. Jack turned and turned looking for him when suddenly Sora appeared on top of Jack's house, "Happy Halloween Jack Skellington, King of Fear"
Jack looked over where Riku and Mickey were and they disappeared as well. Jack shook his head, "He's a natural, scarying Jack Skellington with the things I taught him"
Sally walked over to him and smiled as she took his arm, "I do hope they stay safe"
Suddenly there was a loud explosion in the laboratory. Sora, Riku, and Mickey suddenly appeared in front of it as Jack ran to it. Sora and Jack ran up to the door, but as they were about to open it the door burst open with such force that Jack and Sora were sent flying into the acid fountain. Sora luckily stopped in mid air and grabbed Jack by the arm mere inches from falling into the lethal liquid. He set Jack down and ran over to Mickey and Riku saying, "Get the mayor and Sally to safety Jack, we can handle this"
Jack nodded and did as Sora said and Sora turned to look for the doctor. Sora backed away as he saw the doctor walk out of the building, he was at least eight feet tall, buff, and the power of darkness was emitting off of him like gama rays. His skin was black and he had a head full of hair that was spiked on top of his head and black with electric purple streaks in it. Sora looked at him, "Dr. Frinkinstein"
The doctor roared with rage and pointed his fist directly behind Sora, where Jack had just arrived. A dark orb formed from his fist and flew and hit Jack throwing him into the fountain, but Sora caught him again and set Jack down in front of his house. Sora glared at the doctor upon seeing that Jack had a huge black spot where the orb had hit him. Jack was unconcious and that angered Sora even more. Sora stepped away from Jack and jumped up to the place he and Jack had stood on top of the fountain. Sora yelled in anger as he changed into his Obelisk form, the two keyblades twirling around him. Riku and Mickey looked at him and Riku met Sora's eyes. They were shadowed in darkness and midnight blue. His hair had remained black, but his nails were talons, and his teeth were sharper than before. Mickey grabbed Riku's arm when he moved to run to Sora, "Don't, he isn't himself right now"
Riku watched as Sora grabbed the keyblades spinning around him and flew with lightning speed at the doctors' mutated form. Sora yelled out as he hit the doctor into the building, "You want to see the power of darkness doctor? Do you want to see the hatred and rage, then I will show it to you"
The doctor got up and threw three orbs at Sora as he did so. Sora dodge them and moved in for an attack. But when Sora made to cut the doctor he grabbed the blades in his hands and smiled, "Arrghh"
The doctor turned and threw Sora into the ground, rubble topple on top of him making Riku cry out, "SORA"
But then an enormous amount of energy threw the rubble from him and Sora rised out of the ground and kicked the doctor into the fountain. His size making it nearly impossible to stop himself he landed in the water, but it did nothing to his rock hard skin. He flew at Sora and threw more orbs at him as he screamed in anger. Sora dodge his orbs only to have the doctors mutated, huge hand grab his face and slam his head into the wall. Sora went limp, but when the doctor made an orb and tried to thrust it into Sora's midriff Sora stabbed the doctor in the throat with Oblivion. Then Sora did a backflip kicking the keyblade deeper and knocking the doctor on his back. Sora stood over the doctor and reached for his keyblade as the doctor lay still. But then the doctor grabbed his ankle and threw him in the air. When Sora regained himself the doctor tackled him into the fountain making it impossible for Sora to stop himself. Sora screamed as the acid burned his clothes and skin, but the doctor had tackled him hard enough for Sora to end up in the pathway under the fountain. The doctor rose up above the fountain and reached above his head forming a huge orb of darkness. Sora looked up in the hole he had fallen through, he saw the doctor throw the orb at the fountain. He got up painfully and dived out of the way just missing the orb and the fountain as it caved in. Sora was gasping for air and blood was trinkling down his face from his head injury and from his mouth. Sora wiped the blood from his mouth and got to his feet, he heard Riku and Mickey fighting the doctor. Sora rose above the ground and floated to the huge hole then looked up to see Riku ripping Oblivion from the doctors throat and then slice him across the midriff and chest. Sora rose up to where the fountain had once stood and looked at the doctor as he kicked Riku into the closest building and knocked Mickey to the ground. Sora cracked his neck and said smuggly, "Is that all you've got Dr. Frinkinstein"
He roared and came at Sora, Sora called the Oblivion to his side and using both keyblades he blocked his attack. Then Sora turned and disappeared, he appeared behind the doctor and then pointed his keyblade at his heart and light emitted from it striking the doctor and making him fall to the ground. Sora floated to the ground and fell to his knees as he changed back to his normal form. The doctor stirred and soon got to his hands and knees. He turned adn face Sora once he was on his feet, his eyes half dead. Riku ran to Sora's side and raised his own keyblade at the doctor, Sora raised his keyblade and together their light emitted from the ends striking the doctor in the heart then Mickey threw an orb of light at him and he exploded in a wave of powerful light.
Sora sighed and grabbed his head, it was pounding and it hurt tremendously, as did the rest of his body, there were multiple cuts and bruises from being thrown into the building, rubble crashing on top of him, and then being tackled into the fountain. Sora winced when he touched a burn mark on his arm. Riku pulled him to his feet and they walked over to Mickey then over to where Sora had left Jack. Sally had him cradled in her lap and nodded to them, "He's going to be okay, thank you"
Sora nodded, "No problem."
