"We'll Go Together…."
In this chapter, and several of the following, I will be including songs from "The Nightmare Before Christmas: Oogie's Revenge". The songs themselves are re-writes of songs from the original movie. In this story, I will be changing them a bit to help them fit in the story better. Now, please enjoy...
Chapter 11
"So, this is Halloween Town?" said Kairi as she took in her new, more gothic, surroundings. "Yup, that's right," said Sora. But, no sooner had he said this, they were suddenly surrounded by a small group of Heartless: mostly Wight Knights, Gargoyles, Search Ghosts, Trick Ghosts, and a Grand Ghost. "Stay close to me, Kairi," said Sora as he called the Oathkeeper to his hand. He went to strike down the Heartless, but as soon as he began to move, the Heartless suddenly burst into flames and died. "Uh... I didn't do that," said Sora, puzzled by what just happened. "Heartless don't spontaneously combust, do they?" asked Kairi, who was in the same state as Sora. "That's because I did." They turned to see that what was once a scarecrow with a pumpkin for a head, had revealed itself to be none other than the Pumpkin King: Jack Skellington.
"Sora, it's been a while. How have you been?" asked Jack as he shook Sora's hand. "It's great to see you, too, Jack" Sora replied. "And who is this lovely young lady?" asked Jack as he kissed the back of Kairi's hand like a gentleman. "I love your costume." That's when Kairi realized that her clothes had changed. She was now wearing a black witch's dress that went down to her knees. She wore pointy black shoes with red and black socks that went up to her knees. The dress was tattered at the end of the dress and the sleeves. And, on her head, she wore a black witch hat that kind of resembled Vivi's hat. "I'm Kairi. Who are you?" "Who am I? I am Jack Skellington: The PUMPKIN KING! The titan of terror! The monarch of monsters! Or, I was until…." "What happened?" asked Sora. "Well, it was after I got this new weapon from Dr. Finklestein." Jack then showed them his wrist. Wrapped around it was what appeared to be a glob of flubber. "It's a special kind of whip called the Soul Robber. I went out of town to test it out, and out of nowhere, Oogie Boogie comes back and tells the entire town I abandoned them. It's been three days, and I have been fighting off Heartless since then." "Then what are we waiting for?" said Sora. "Let's go in, and stop Oogie here and now." "You're right. I found out Oogie is hold up in the Town Hall. Let's go." They made their way to the Town Hall. When they entered, they thought they were alone, but the shadows around them then converged in one spot and formed a familiar shape. It was at that moment, a very musical battle ensued.
---"Oogie's Song" (Sang to the tune of "Oogie Boogie's Song")---
Oogie
Boogie:
Well, well, well!
Jack, and Sora, too!
Finally
made it, huh?
Oh, I've been waiting!
So how do you like
My
Oogie-Town?
Ha, ha, ha, ha!
Jack:
It's over! It's over!
This time you've gone too far!
It's
over, we're serious!
Just who do you think you are?
Sora:
Just
because you fooled the town
Doesn't make you king!
You'd
better give up, surrender now!
We're fixing everything!
Oogie
Boogie:
That's what
you think, hah!
But you couldn't be more wrong!
And this will
be the last time
You hear the Boogie song!
Ohhh!
Jack:
Ohhh!
Oogie
Boogie:
Oh ohhh!
Sora:
Ohhh!
Oogie
Boogie:
Whoa oh!
Jack/Sora:
Ohhh!
Oogie
Boogie:
I'm the Oogie
Boogie Man!
Jack:
We
see you're pretty proud of
All your booby-trapping schemes!
Sora:
But
we can say you'll rule this town
Only in your dreams!
Oogie
Boogie:
Heh, that's
funny guys, it was a dream!
But now it's coming true!
'Cause
even my mere shadow knows
Jack's days as king are through!
Whoa oh!
Jack:
Whoa oh!
Oogie
Boogie:
Oh ohhh!
Sora:
Whoa
oh!
Oogie
Boogie:
Whoa oh!
Jack:
Whoa
oh!
I'm the Pumpkin King!
When the song ended, Jack and Sora thought they had defeated Shadow Oogie. "Ha Ha Ha! Same old pathetic Jack! Did you really think some glob of flubber was going to beat me? And you had the keyblade-wielder help you too? You always were a weak king, Jack. That's why you abandoned Halloween Town!" said Shadow Oogie, with a smirk. "I would never abandon my town or the people! It was you who deceived them!" said Jack angrily. "It doesn't matter. I have already enslaved the citizens, and imprisoned those who resisted me. Like Dr. Finklestein's rag-doll, for example" said Oogie. "What have you done with Sally?!" exclaimed Jack. "The same thing I'm going to do to that girl over there!" Oogie then reverted back to being a shadow on the ground. He then dashed over underneath Kairi, and then engulfed her in his inky, black grip. "KAIRI!!!!" called Sora, as Oogie burst through the doors of the town hall, and started running out of the town square, leaving Heartless in his wake. "We got to go after him, Jack! He has Kairi!" said Sora, worried about his love. "Don't worry, Sora. We will find him," said Jack. He then brought his fingers to his mouth and blew, making a whistling sound to call forth his ghost dog, Zero. "Zero, go follow Oogie Boogie and find out where he is going. We will be joining him shortly." And with that, Zero flew off into the night sky in search of the bag of bugs that wanted Halloween Town for his own. "Right now, we can't follow Zero with these Heartless in the way. C'mon Sora, let's go!" said Jack, as he and Sora charged into the swarm of Heartless, in hopes of stopping Oogie Boogie.
