The Nightmare Before Gravity ch. 2
I OWN AND REGRET NOTHING!
…...
Dipper Pines hadn't been expecting much of his summer trip to the remote town of Gravity Falls...until he met Jack that is...at first he didn't know what to make of the employee that always dressed like a skeleton...Then he realized how amazing he was! Jack was always terrifying or pranking the tourists...how he was able to set himself on fire without harm was beyond Dipper.
On random occasions he'd dress as Santa(or a skeleton dressed as Santa anyway) and give them all the most bizarre gifts(like an awesome corpse hand...That occasionally twitched!). Yep everyone at the Mystery Shack loved this strange man...despite not knowing much about him...which all changed one fateful day...
…...
Dipper was showing off to Wendy and Soos a crazy Journal he'd found in the woods. Suddenly, Mabel shows up to introduce her new boyfriend Norman. Naturally, everyone regarded this guy who looked like he'd crawled off the cover of "serial killer monthly" with suspicion...and they weren't the only ones...
"What exactly are you doing Jeff?" Asks Jack darkly having once more appeared seemingly out of nowhere. The instant Norman saw Jack he screamed and literally fell to pieces. Mabel and the rest of the gang could only stare in disbelief as a bunch of little men bowed before Jack and begged for mercy.
"Oh, great and terrifying Pumpkin King! Spare me! I knew not that this fair maiden was under your protection! Here! Eat Shmebulock!" "Shmebulock!" Shouted one of the gnomes in protest.
Jack shook his head. "Just get out." He said more than a little irritated. The Gnomes didn't need to be told twice!
The group looked at the holes in the wall that the gnomes had created in their mad panic stunned. "Ooookay, what just happened here?" Asked a dumbfounded Wendy. Dipper however was in deep though. Pumpkin king...where have I heard that? Quickly he flips to one of the many pages of the journal that he'd only briefly glanced at...and paled-
THE PUMPKIN KING
AKA Skeleton Jack
AKA The Holiday Leader of Halloween Town
AKA The Personification of Halloween!
The rest of the Gang looked over Dippers shoulder at the page, and became pale as well. "Your a real skeleton monster!?" Exclaimed Dipper horrified. Jack looks at them confused. "Why yes!...Was that not clear?" He asked sincerely.
The gang just stared...then they screamed and ran for their lives!...Leaving a very confused Jack in the dust.
The gang quickly hid in a closet. "So wait...were seriously dealing a real skeleton monster here?" Asked Wendy incredulously.
"Actually, we prefer the term 'The terror endowed, flesh Impaired'." Stated Jack having somehow appeared in the closet without any of them noticing.
Once more they screamed and ran, this time they hide under a bed. "I tell you, this would be so cool if we weren't about to die!" Exclaims Soos. "Yeah, that's usually the case for most 'cool' things." Conceded Jack having snuck under the bed without any of them noticing. "You know, I like this hiding place a lot better." He admitted while the gang just stared in shocked silence. For awhile...all was quite. Jack sighed. "Scream and run." He said flatly, and they immediately obliged.
Jack sighed, then held up his hand. SOUL ROBBER! He shouted, and the gang suddenly found himself entangled in sticky green slime. Jack looks at them. "Okay...I'm going to let you go now...Can we please discuss this like reasonable people?" Asked Jack sincerely. Not having any other option, the group could only nod...
