We're starting in Lord Dominator's P.O.V.
I had just hung up with Jack and then, put my phone my phone away. Then I walked all the way back to Dr. Finkelstein's Laboratory sadly. It took me twenty minutes to get there, but I still made it. So then, I opened the front door, and headed towards the waiting room. "Hey guys I'm here, I'm so sorry about what I did earlier". I announced to everyone as I walked in. Then, I sat down next to Sylvia nervously staring at the floor as I did so.
"Nah it's alright but hey Jack, Dr. Finkelstein has been up there for a long time, so what do you think or why do you think he's been up there for so long anyway"? Sylvia asked Jack, with a suspicious look on her face. "I have no idea but, there's only one way to find out". Jack said in reply filled with serious concern as he then, snapped his fingers to create a new camera bubble that was showing us the inside of the examination room. However, I just noticed that something was very wrong in the waiting room. "Hey, wait a minute guys, where's Bot Thirteen and Bot Forty-Two"? I asked as I started to panic big time!
We're Now In Jack's P.O.V.
"Oh oops, I'm sorry I meant to do this earlier". I said in remembrance and I was a little embarrassed about forgetting about Lord Dominator's Bots. Then I used my magic to cast a telepathy spell. "Bot Forty-Two can you hear me, it me Jack, we convinced Lord Dominator to return back to the laboratory go ahead on back here okay"? I told and explained to Bot Forty-Two telepathically.
"Okay great but um, how are you doing this Jack"? Bot Forty-Two asked me in astonishment and nervously obviously was being a little creeped out by my ability. "Oh, it's just a basic telepathy spell so, I'm sorry if I creeped you out a little just now". I replied apologetically to Bot Forty-Two. "Oh, that's alright, I just wasn't expecting it but, anyway, we're on our way right now". Bot Forty-Two said reassuringly. Then I turned to Lord Dominator with a reassuring smile on my skull.
"Not to worry Lord Dominator, they're on their way back right now". I told Lord Dominator reassuringly. "Oh well good then, let's see what's going on inside the camera bubble, shall we"? Lord Dominator said full of relief and anxiousness. We all nodded to her in agreement and looked into the camera bubble.
We're Now In The Narrator's P.O.V.
It had felt like hours for Dr. Finkelstein since wheeling into the examination room to look at Judy. Dr. Finkelstein was trying everything he knew to try and help cure Judy of her painful injuries. However, so far and up to this point nothing has worked! At this point Judy was still past out but thankfully, Judy's breathing was completely normal and not shallow in the slightest. "Oh, why is nothing working I can't even wake her up"! Dr. Finkelstein shouted out in frustration and fear for Judy's medical state! However, just at that moment an idea sparked in his brilliant head and started to leave the room.
However, he stopped at the doorway and decided to call up Jack and Sally from there, for he knew he shouldn't leave Judy in the room all alone like this. "Jack and Sally, would you please come to the examination room, I need to speak with both of you". Dr. Finkelstein called out to the Skellington Couple seriously and kindly too! "We're coming Dr. Finkelstein"! Jack called back in reply as he and Sally walked up the ramp.
We're New In Jack's P.O.V.
"So, what is it Dr. Finkelstein, is my Daughter's injuries worse than, any of us thought"? I asked fearfully once Sally closed the door behind her. "No, no it's nothing like that Jack I just was thinking and wanted to ask you this, why don't you try your magic to heal Judy's injuries"? Dr. Finkelstein reassured me and explained to both of us and then asked of me suggestively and this felt like a complete slap to the skull! "Oh, I am such an idiot, how did I overlook that option so easily"? I said as to criticize myself in frustration. "Hey Jack, look at me, it's okay now why don't we try it"? Sally said very seriously and reassuringly.
"Okay you're right thank you Sally". I told Sally gratefully. I then turned to Judy and walked over to her, with Sally not too far behind me, as I casted the healing spell. We both took a seat on either side of Judy each holding one of her skeletal hands desperately. "Judy can you hear me"? I asked Judy shakily, fearing she might not wake up. "Judy speak to us please wake up". Sally said sounding like she was about to ball her eyes out, from pain, fear, sadness and hopelessness.
We're Now In Judy's P.O.V.
When I heard the fear, sadness, and pain in my parents' voices as well as them calling my name in general, for me to wake up, it made me want to wake up. Thankfully, I started to open my eye sockets opened ever so slowly. They opened for me to see Dad on the right side of me and Mom on the left side of me, and with both of them looking down at me with tears in their eyes/eye sockets. And I could tell some of my Mom's tears were starting from and as she was begging me to wake up and say something to her however, they were new coming out full of joy, and extreme relief! Dad was also, having the same reaction and case as Mom was having, and I'll never forget that look they had on their face/skull that they had at the very first moment of me showing that I was regaining consciousness and, when I could see them clearly enough of course. "Mommy, Daddy"? Was all I could manage to say to them because I was still in the middle of regaining consciousness completely and fully too.
"JUDY THANK HALLOWEEN YOU'RE OKAY"! My Parents said in unison full of excitement, strong relief, and were also, overjoyed, when they heard me speak to them. Mom and Dad, carefully of course, then leaned in to hug me lovingly, as they exclaimed those words as well. I was sitting up before that hug by the way, also momentarily forgetting about how it would hurt me to do that as I then, hugged them back. "Hey, I haven't felt any pain as I was sitting up nor since I got into the sitting up position, what exactly happened while I was out"? I exclaimed in relief, excitement, and happiness but then, asked in shocked confusion.
"Well Dr. Finkelstein tried everything he knew for the past hour and nothing had worked however, he realized and reminded me that there is a healing spell I knew". Dad explained to me, and when he mentioned the spell, I got a little angrily irritated at him. "What you could've healed me this whole time, and I mean all the way back to those two months ago when I got injured twice"? I asked in utter shock and irritation at how long Dad forgot something, and that useful also important, for! "I know I criticized myself for those reasons too heh, oh, I'm so sorry that I didn't remember that sooner and indirectly causing your pain to continue on longer than it could would have, if I realized it sooner. It seemed so obvious now, which makes me even more confused on how it slipped out of my mind like that but still, can you ever forgive me Judy"? Dad said to give me his explanation very sadly and glumly as well.
"Oh, it's okay Dad and I'm so sorry for reacting like that but, I couldn't help but show and let out my irritation in some way". I told Dad lovingly and apologetically and then, I hugged Dad as to show I had accepted his apology. "No need to apologize Judy I was expecting that type of reaction to this kind of thing out of anyone not just you Judy, to be honest. So anyway, how are you feeling sweet pumpkin"? Dad said as he hugged me back, reassuringly and then, asked me gently and softly Dad also, had a concerned look on his skull. "Actually, Dad I feel like it was if I wasn't beaten up by The Trio in the first place nor at all"! I explained happily for my reply and to Dad, Mom, and Dr. Finkelstein.
Then we all turned to the door, when we heard Zero's barking coming from right in front of the other side of the door. So then, Dr. Finkelstein wheeled over to the door, and opened it for Zero. I saw Zero floating there in the doorway, but only for a millisecond, because he then flew up to me super quickly, all while he barked happily. The next thing I knew, was that I was practically being licked to death (it'll never be literally of course, especially when it come to this case) by Zero happily, and who was also so overjoyed to see me and to see that I was not only awake, but also all better as well as completely healed! Which of course, tickled intensely. "HE, HE, HE, OKAY, OKAY Zero please calm down, that tickles, HEH, HEH, I'm HEH, HEH, glad to see HEH, HEH, you too Zero"! I told Zero in between giggles from the tickling sensation as I tried and even, begged for, Zero to calm down and quit his doggie kisses attack.
Eventually though, Zero finally backed off and just looked at me happily and then, nuzzled his head under my skull lovingly. I patted his spectral head as to thank him for his affection. Then Zero flew away to go float next to Dad at skull level and then I sat up even more in the bed, lifted off the blanket, and turned to sit on the side of the bed, with my skeletal legs new dangling off the edge of the side of the bed. And to my relief, still wasn't feeling nor getting a shot of pain shooting throughout my entire skeletal body! "Yep so far so good, looks like it really caused me to fully recover however, we still need to see if I still can't walk or if I can new walk and/or again, right Dr. Finkelstein"? I said to notify my Parents. And then I asked for confirmation from Dr. Finkelstein, cautiously of course, because I wasn't sure if I read it exactly as how it was forming as it was in Dr. Finkelstein's mind with my little hunch, or if I wasn't even a smidge close to it at all.
"Precisely Judy, I'm glad to see that my medical knowledge is rubbing off and on you, and I'm sure with you going to be our next and future leader A.K.A. Pumpkin Queen, that will come in handy and make you even a more valuable and stronger one, yes most definitely it will". Dr. Finkelstein told me with a pleased, kindly, sweetly, and an obviously impressed smile at how well I predicted what the next step of the recovery testing, that would tell us if I was fully recovered or not and if not, it would tell us where I was in and at with my process to recovery. "Why thank you Dr. Finkelstein, and not only for that intriguing complement, but also for doing what you could and working so hard to help me with healing my injuries it was very sweet and kind of you to do all that, despite the efforts being in vain but, not unnoticed". I told Dr. Finkelstein gratefully and then, I pushed myself off the bed and onto my feet. Then, I took a few steps forward and I was walking normally, without stumbling nor, with any pain in fact, with no pain whatsoever! "You seem to be able to walk again however, are you feeling any pain at all sweetie"? Dad said and then asked me softly and a little nervously too.
"No, I'm not feeling any pain Dad however, I'm still getting and feeling that numbing sensation from Shock's spell"! I told Dad reassuringly but sadly, notifying all three of them, when I noticed that I was still feeling the numbness but also and thankfully, it wasn't enough to keep me laying down in that bed. "Oh, I'm sorry about that sweetie but then, how are we going to remove it since even my magic didn't work"? Dad said comfortingly and then, asked frustratingly. "Wow calm down Jack, I've got an idea but first, we need to get back to Skellington Manor immediately". Mom said encouragingly and so then, me, Dad, and Zero nodded to Mom in agreement. We thanked Dr. Finkelstein once more as we walked out of the examination room, and speedily walked down the spiral ramp. Then we speedily walked up to all our friends.
"Howdy Judy...wait how are ya fully recovered and this quickly oh, and of course, Ah'm glad ya are all better but still, how"? Wander asked once we were in front of him and the others and, when his eyes fell on me, and I'm sure he was speaking for everyone else in that room with him as he said that. "My Dad used his magical healing spell that he just forgot or at least didn't think about using it for these kind of situations for the past TWO months, somehow but the important point is, that it worked. However, the power neutralizer spell is still on me however, my Mom told us she has an idea so, let's head back to Skellington Manor before we continue this conversation okay"? I explained to Wander and the others as well, and requested of them sheepishly. "Alright Judy however, before we go, we would like to do THIS"! Sylvia said and then, immediately she and the rest of our friends, hugged me but in a gentle and loving one of course, and I hugged them back happily.
This hug filled and warmed my undead heart up so much that I felt myself deeply crying from the comfort, support, love, and friendship it gave me. "We're so glad that you're fully recovered Judy"! They all said in unison happily as soon as they had formed a friendship group hug onto me. "Well you can let go now, for we've got somewhere to go anyway". I told my friends sheepishly and remindingly and then, they did just that and finally, we began our walk over to Skellington Manor.
We're Now In Jack's P.O.V.
We were on the way back to Skellington Manor, when I just finished explaining to Judy what we were doing after she passed out. "Wow wait what those...uh, THINGS are in all our tooniverse friends' worlds, what are we going to do to help them, have you even contacted any of them to warn them about the army?! Actually, you know what, never mind forget it, I'm going to see what their location is in each of their worlds right now"! Judy said in shocked concern right before, snapping her fingers for each camera bubble also a camera bubble for each world she need to look at for this task but of course, one at a time by the way. Also by the way, we were almost to the point when and where we will be in front of Skellington Manor and at the bottom of the front porch's staircase.
Then Judy made the camera bubbles vanish after ten minutes of investigating and looking at each one carefully and then, Judy look back at all of us. "Alright guys in every one of the worlds, the survivors of Oogie's army, are walking through the woods obviously until they find civilization and as soon as they stumble upon the nearest town or city or even the nearest in-the-middle-of-nowhere house! However, as you and Mom already know, one of our friends' house is extremely very close by to the woods of their world so, I'll call them first to warn them". Judy said to explain the situation on our other friends' worlds and informed us on what she planned to do next. I knew exactly who Judy was talking about, and that was Coraline also her Parents, and all of her Nabors in The Pink Palace as well as Wybie and his Grandmother too!
We're Now In Judy's P.O.V.
And so then, I took out my phone, dialed Coraline's number and then finally, I was anxiously waiting for Coraline to answer her phone. "Oh, Please pick up". I whispered to myself repeatedly and very nervously pleading for Coraline to answer. It felt like forever but still however, also eventually, I heard Coraline's voice. It also relieved me that She sounded so happy, casual, and calm, because it signaled that, even though a little tragically she's unaware on what's about to happen in all those Tooniverse worlds let alone, her own world alone, it thankfully told me and that it meant, I called her in time before it was too late and where it would most likely be too late as in, I call her, distract her from fighting off the army's soldiers, and then it'd be game over or, it would already be game over because she and her loved ones didn't get the time to prepare for that battle to save their world and each other however and thankfully, that wasn't the case.
We're Now In Coraline's P.O.V.
I was just reading a book for school, when I heard phone when it started ringing. So, I looked to see who was trying to call me and saw that it was Pumpkin Princess Judy Skellington and so, I answered my phone immediately. For I had a hunch that this was about something urgent. "Hey Judy, what's up because I've been having a strong feeling that this something bigger than, just catching up with friends so, what is it this time"? I said to explain my hunch-like feeling, as soon as I answered and then asked suspiciously and I was full of curiosity.
"Oh, thank you for answering, because I've got something I needed to tell you right away! So, look, I have to warn you that well, some of, and A.K.A., the remaining soldiers of and from Oogie's Army survived the fighting when trying to save Halloween Town and Christmas Town from their invasion! And that also, they had started with their refuge just last night by going to a newly discovered circle of trees that are EXACTLY the same fashion and setup as The Holiday Doors Trees! However, instead of leading to holiday worlds, they lead to the Tooniverse worlds that you and all our other Tooniverse friends live in and are there right now, and as we speak, they are walking through the closest woods to the towns, cities, and houses you all live in! And so, since, The Pink Palace as well as Wybie and his Grandmother's house, are so close by to the nearby woods that are practically acting as the backyard, and besides the garden of course, for The Pink Palace, I knew you were the first of them that just absolutely HAD to be warned! So, to make things short and the point: in a nutshell, the group of Oogie's soldiers are heading in your houses' direction right NOW"! Judy explained to me frantically and seriously in full detail and her warning shocked me to say the least!
"Also, I and my family would love to come and help all of you but I'm afraid we can't you see, Oogie is back and threatened all three of our lives and not too long ago in fact, it was just this morning but anyway, Shock casted a power neutralizer spell on me however, I know you guys will be able to defend yourselves perfectly fine even without us. So please help me by calling the others and warn them about all of this and just hold the soldiers off as best as you and I mean as in physically, possibly can, until we've taken care of Oogie and we'll be right over to help alright"? Judy further explained to me and requested of me kindly. "Alright Judy, you got it, and good luck to you with that Oogie problem Judy"? I told Judy in reply encouragingly as well. "Thanks, Coraline, and good luck to you guys as well, bye Coraline I have to go now". Judy told me sweetly then we hung up and begun all the phone calls to warn the others about Oogie's Army.
We're Now In Judy's P.O.V.
"Okay Coraline is handling the rest of the phone calls to the others to warn them about Oogie's Army so they'll be prepared for the invasion-like attack". I reported to everyone happily and with reassuring seriousness. "Great thinking Judy well we can relax a little bit more now knowing that info". Dad said out of relief. "Well guys were here so, let's go up to Jack's study okay"? Sally notified to us and requested of us. So, we nodded in understanding and followed her to do just that.
So then, we walked into the house, up the spiral staircase and finally, into Jack's study all while Sally was leading the way. "Alright now that we're here, what's this idea of yours Dear"? Dad asked Mom curiously and anxiously as well. "Well why don't we open Shock's spell book and find the page that has this spell, that Judy's under, on it"? Mom explained her idea suggestively. "That's a great idea Sally, well follow me everyone and we'll go look at the spell book"? Dad exclaimed happily in agreement and instructed to the others, who also nodded in agreement.
So then with Dad taking the lead this time, we walked into the secret passageway that would take us to the Royal Family Training Room. "Wow this is so cool Judy and it still surprises me how many rooms are in such a small house, even a Manor of this size has way more rooms then thought possible". Sylvia said in astonishment to me, as we walked through the secret passageway. Then we walked into the training room and walked all the way to the safe that held Shock's spell book in it. Then Mom and Lord Dominator worked together to open the safe door and finally, Sally grabbed the spell book before closing the safe door again. "Alright here you go Jack, now let's get started on finding that spell that was casted on our Daughter, shall we"? Mom advised to Dad, to which we all nodded in agreement as Dad flipped the book open to the "Table Of Contents Page.
