Letters
After leaving the giant pumpkin head Harry greeted Hedwig who flew down and gave him the package which was an early Christmas gift from Hermione that consisted of; a letter, and a mirror confused Harry looked to the letter.
Harry,
It's Hermione writing and I know you've gone off on another adventure. But right now that doesn't matter. I know you're wondering what the mirror is well it acks like a muggle phone just with out needing to diel a number all you do is say the name of the person or people who have a keyed in mirror. Now then yours and don't get mad but its keyed to your godfather Sirius Black as he had the two mirrors. Once you get it I want you to use it just say Sirius black and we'll answer.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Hermione J. Granger.
With a chuckle that got jacks attention harry grabbed the mirror and spoke
"Sirius Black" the mirrors surface rippled like water. And after a moment Hermione's, Ron's and prof. Lupin appeared on the surface.
"Hey guys. Professor. What's up?" Harry asked fallowing Jack back to town.
"Don't you what's up us Harry James Potter." Hermione said with a glare.
"sorry mate but I think it might be a good idea to explain what's going on before 'mione explodes." Ran said leaning away from their bushy haired friend.
"Short answer I was taking a walk by the forbidden forest, came across some trees with carvings that depicted the holidays, figured out that they were doors, opened the one that looked like a jack-o-lantern, got pulled in by fall winds, landed near a cemetery, fallowed the path to a town proper, found out that there was a problem decided to stay and help out if I could, met Jack Skellington the Pumpkin king and I'm currently leaving the pumpkin patch and heading back up to town, oh and I meet my dad he and mom apparently had been sent here after they died as it was Halloween, I also found out that I'm technically half dead." Harry listed off. Ron, Hermione, and professor Lupin all were sporting versus shades of pale.
"Wait mate your meet your dad?" Ron asked seeming to ignore the whole being half dead thing.
"Yes, apparently mom and he have in fact been looking for me as I wasn't supposed to go to my aunt house." Harry explained
"Harry Who is it that you're talking to?" Jack asked coming beside Harry and looking at the mirror.
"Oh, theses are my friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger along with one of my professors Remus Lupin they were worried about me and sent me this charmed mirror so I could tell them that I was okay. Everyone this is Jack Skellington the pumpkin king." Harry explained tilting the mirror towards Jack so he could see what was going on. Once They could see who Harry was talking about, they were shocked Ron made a strangled squeaking sound, Hermione started muttering to herself about something or another and Remus blinked a few times.
"Guy's? you, okay?" Harry asked
"Mate your standing next to Halloween's king and Death's youngest Sibling." Ron stated seeming to find his voice Hermione was still off in fact's land and Remus looked to be fighting with his self.
"Calm yourself Mr. Lupin Once everything has been fixed her in Halloween town, I'll send Wolfman to help you and provide sanctuary here for the wolves, witches, wizards, the Mandan and vampires when 'Flight from Death' repairs" Jack stated his eye sockets rolling.
"How did?"
"I know? Easy I'm the pumpkin king and James has spoken about you and padfoot who I believe is Sirius Black." Jack explained his skeleton grin widening somehow. Remus look both relived and a bit apprehensive. But we'd best hurry as Lock, Shock, and barrel did something to the mayor's home and it wouldn't surprise me if they did something else to the rest of the town." Jack said
"Right Jack, Guy's I really have to go but I will call you latter on when things have calmed down over here" Harry stated.
"Okay mate we'll see you later." Ron stated
"I have so many question's but I'll ask later." Hermione said in a daze
"Thank you, your majesty, I'll inform the headmaster about your offer. Well See you soon Harry." Remus said still looking apprehensive but hopeful. And with that the mirror rippled like water again and the surface returned to normal.
"Let's get going. Harry." Jack said leading the way to the exit and back to town.
"Jack are you sure you want to have Halloween town be a refuge camp when Voldemort comes back?" Harry asked
"Yes, and I know the other Holiday Rulers will agree with me about this." Jack said as the two return to the town square Corps Kid approached them. Saying that he had been hearing screaming coming from the residential part of town and the screams didn't sound like fun screams. With a nodded Jack and harry made there way to Hemlock Homestead where the screaming was becoming louder, and no the screams didn't sound like they were fun screams. Crossing the bridge and fallowing the path Jack and Harry come across Violet who was worried
"Violet what's going on?" Harry asked
"I was on my way home to get some more supplies, when I heard someone screaming and saw clown ridding around. It seems those Oogie Baddies installed some kind of engine on clown's unicycle! Jack, Harry, I wonder if you two might have something in your bags of trick's that could slow clown down."
"I think I might have an idea Harry stay back I don't want you to get hurt is this doesn't work." Jack said dawning his Sandy Claws outfit after waiting for a few moment Jack sent out one of his Jack in the box's into the middle of the road right where clown was going to fly by. The Jack in the box popped and clown's unicycle stopped but when Jack went to approached clown the engine kicked back on sending jack into the pavement.
"Oof well that didn't work," Jack Commented
"Hmm… I guess the only way to stop clown is to remove that engine, and not even my spells can do that. If you had some kind of tool, you might be able to take it out while he's stopped."
"Dr. Finkelstein probable has a tool that can work." Harry said Jack nodded and the tow of them made there way to the Dr.'s home once more where they found Sally working away on a large stew and the good Dr. in his work shop working on something with James helping him out
"Oh, Harry, Jack what can we do you for?" James asked hugging Harry
"We need a tool because some of Oogie's baddies strapped an engine to Clown's Unicycle and clown can't get off safely because of how fat the cycle is going." Harry explained.
"A tool you say there over on the bench take what you need." Dr. Finkelstein said not looking up from his project.
"Thanks' Dr. we'll get this back to you soon." Jack said with a smile half listing to a story James was telling harry. Something about getting Igor's bone basket back from the large spider from the burial chamber with liberal use of the fire spells that he knew he beat the spider and in return for helping him Igor gave James a bunch of soul coins where he got them, he didn't want to know.
"All right Harry lets go we need to get clown off of his unicycle before he gets hurt, " Jack stated Harry fallowed behind, once they got back to Hemlock Homestead Jack dawned his Sandy Claws outfit threw a Jack in the box In front of clown which popped stopping clown harry moved quickly and removed the engine which flew off.
"At last,… I finally stopped! Whoa my eye's are spinning." Clown stated and gaged not felling to well.
"Are you all right clown?" Jack asked
"Yes, thanks to you. I hope those Vampire brother up the street are okay. I saw some of Oogie's monsters headed that way when my cycle went psycho." Clown explained
"I hope so, too but that gate is closed and we can't get through." Harry explained
"No problem. There's a secret lever on the top of my house. I'll open the gate for you and the mayor's house is on the other side" Clown explained and rolled away.
. It didn't take long for clown to get the gate open for them and with a quick thank you and see you soon, Harry and jack started to make their way to the vampire brother's home. But as they entered the street, they came across an Oogie Ogre that proceeded to try and send both Harry and Jack flying but with some good team work and creative attacks they were able to send the Ogre back into the earth once more. With that dealt with Jack and Harry entered the Vampire brother home after navigating the corridor Jack led Harry to the bother's resting room, there they found a not that one of the brother's left which read
Oogie Boogie th-formed us into four Bats, find us and return us to our coffins.
"Ohno when the vampire brother's are in their bat forms, they have a heard time distinguishing between friend and foe and will fly away." Jack explained lamenting the problem that just accrued.
Your majesty Perhaps I can be of assistant in this case. Hedwig spoke up startling Harry and causing Jack to laugh
"Of course, Hedwig will be able to guild the brothers back to their coffins. Brilliant" Jack exclaimed
"Are you sure girl?" Harry asked stroking Hedwig's feathers.
Of course, I am Harry. Hedwig stated nipping at Harry's fingers
"Alright Hedwig just please be careful." Harry said
I will harry I Promise. Now then your majesty I need the names of the brothers so I can find them Hedwig stated
"Right their names are Prince Keenan Chambers, Baron Gawain Chambers, Lord Alec Chambers and Count Caedmon Chambers. Their bat forms are florescent neon green." Jack explained.
Thank you I'll be back shortly. Hedwig stated and with that she flew off looking for the vampire brothers.
"What will we do while we wait for Hedwig to get back." Harry asked
"We rally the town. Oogie is going to be taking down once and for all." Jack said his eye sockets glowing with pumpkin fire. Harry nodded in agreement. The two then left the Vampire brothers home and split up to go door to door to gather the residents of Halloween town to ready themselves for a final showdown between Oogie and all of Halloween town. As the tow gathered people The both saw Hedwig fly overhead either guiding a bat back to the Vampire Brothers home or without one looking for the others. After about 45 minuet's Hedwig gathered Harry and Jack to back to the vampires brothers home where the four were waiting. As they made their way to the bother's homes once more the town's intercom screamed to life once more.
"My dearly Abhorred denizens of Oogie Town. Thanks to my own diabolically ingenious thinking, I have decided to become the ruler of not only Oogie town but all the Holidays as well. We will soon be able to celebrate 'Oogie Boogie Day' seven day's every year! Preparations have already been made. I will go secure the final remaining Holiday myself. After all I have a debt to repay. Soon I shall be the seven Holiday's king, so stay tuned! Ba ha ha ha ha!" Oogie stated just as the mic cut off.
"WHAT?!" Jack hollered sounding a lot more demonic then normal
"That isn't good." Harry said looking up towards Jack how had his skull in his hand trying to regain his composers. After a few moment Jack was calmer but no less angry with Oogie's foolish clam. With that the two entered The Vampire brothers home once again. Now back to there normal selves the vampire brothers rose out of there coffin's.
"Now the way to the mayor's house has been open to you Jack and Harry. We have to tell you about Oogie's plan. He uses his Henchmen to abduct the other Holiday leaders." Keenan stated
"They dragged the leaders here and took away the holiday doors so the leaders couldn't return to their worlds. Lock Shock and Barrel then hid the door in each area of the town so they wouldn't be discovered." Gawain stated
"So, the leaders of Valentine's Day, Easter, thanksgiving and the other holiday's are being held prisoner somewhere in this town!?" Jack exclaimed angry that this was happening Harry felt his mouth drop open at this revelation.
"Precisely. Oogie's plan is to take over the holidays and become the seven holidays king." Alec stated
"The seven Holidays King? This is intolerable!" Jack stated his right hand coming up to massage his skull as a headache started to form. Harry had his head in his hands groaning/screaming because of the absurdity of Oogie's plan.
"First you have to find the holiday doors. Otherwise, you won't be able to return the leaders even if you find them. Take back those doors, and find out where the leaders are being held." Caedmon stated
"We understand and thank you for the information." Harry stated
"Before you go you will need the key to the mayor's house, here" Caedmon said each of the brother's handing jack Four pieces of stone to jack who nodded his thanks and after telling the brother to get some rest Jack and harry were about to leave when Alec stopped them once more
"Be for I for get I have a message for young Harry." He stated
"A message?"
"Yes, your mother send's you her love I had been flying over one of the special entrances from the human realm and Lady Lily Potter call out to me, I barley recognized her but she was sound and not Injured. But she was tired I believe she had been trying to use a high-level spell to get out but wasn't having very much luck." Alec explained
"Thank you, Lord Alec." Harry said giving a small bow. Jack simply nodded his head and lightly pulled harry along and out of the vampire brothers home.
And that is the chapter everyone Like with ink magic this chapter was heard to right and I also had to re-watch a couple of episodes of the Game play as I needed the dialogue that was used but it was being difficult. No song this chapter but the next one will most likely have at least 2 songs, "All Hail Mr. Oogie Boogie", and "The Oogie boogie song part 2" i hope you all enjoyed this chapter and I'll see you all next time.
