Sarah sat up in her room with a rather large headache. The rubbed her eyes in exhaustion, that stung at the touch of her hands. She looked over at the clock to see it was already 1:00 AM. The young girl groaned to herself, as she flopped herself on her bed. Sleep had never come easy for Sarah, but lately it seemed as if it was trying to elude her completely.
Feeling angry at herself for no apparent reason, Sarah grabbed her coat and was out the door. Perhaps a good walk could calm her down.
The streets were calm and quiet. She was the only one out at this time of night. She was thankful of the tranquility it brought; she was definitely not in the mood to talk to anyone.
In the past years Sarah kept to her self and only talked when it was needed. The death of her brother had done a lot to her. She always felt that she should never get to close to anyone, because you never know when they can slip away from you without warning...just like Lock did...
Hot tears suddenly fell down her cheeks. "It's not fair! You said we would always be together!" she yelled out to the darkness "You promised..."
Deciding that her little outburst was a little overdramatic for a 25 year old, she calmed herself down. Her mood swings had, well needless to say had gotten the best of her lately.
Sarah sighed to herself as she walked onward into the darkness, not knowing where she was going. Frankly she didn't care; it wasn't a school night, so she could just go where her legs seemed to take her. She just needed to collect her thoughts.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Lock sat looking up at the stars. His breath could be seen in front of him when he exhaled. The cold was getting to him, with every breath he took, his mind flashed back to the night he was with his sister...the night he died.
The three of them were currently traveling along an old railroad track, where they would have no more disturbances. They were no longer in the mood to be pestered by the local rednecks.
The night was lit up by a full harvest moon, casting a shadow on everything it touched on one side, but illuminating the other. It gave an eerie sort of glow to the landscape. The three sat up to just look at the scenery as the passed. It reminded them so much of their home back in Halloween town, how every night there was always a hauntingly beautiful full moon.
"This is the longest I have ever been away from home, it feels weird. But I'm surprised Jack hasn't come look for us yet." Shock said in a lazy voice, staring blankly into the night.
Lock didn't blame her for seeming so detached. None of them had gotten much sleep lately.
"Look look! What's that?" Barrel shouted pointing to a small group of lights up ahead.
"Must be another town." Lock said, looking toward the dim glow of the lights. Suddenly, something hit him. "That's where Sarah is!"
"Sarah?" Barrel said at the same time a yawn escaped him mouth.
"My sister you idiot!" Lock said smacking his friend.
"Oh...Right her." Barrel said, yawning again.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Sarah walked the city streets; the moon reflecting of her skin gave it a sort of peaceful glow. She suddenly stopped dead in her tracks where she saw where she was. Sarah looked up to see the abandoned train station. It was the local hang out of the thugs and bad guys of the aria. (A/n: Bad guys??? Hmmm...Can't think of a better word heh...^^;;)
Sarah turned around hoping to get out of there as fast as she could. When she turned, there was a guy standing behind her.
"Hey cutie, what are you doing out at this time of night?" He flashed an evil grin. She cringed at his yellow teeth.
"I was just going." She said hurriedly, trying not to make eye contact.
"Aw so soon? But you just got here." Came the voice of another guy. Sarah tried not to answer and just walk away, but a strong hand came and grabbed her arm.
"Hey Girly, I wouldn't be so rude if I was you. You better respond when some one it talking to you." Said the owner of the hand that was holding tight to her arm.
Sarah did the only thing she could at the moment...scream.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Did you hear that?" Barrel asked.
"Yeah, it sounded like a scream!" Shock added
"Do you think they screamed because Jack's coming?" Lock said in a worried tone.
"I don't know...lets go find out." Shock said, jumping out of the tub. "Come on you two." Barrel and Lock obeyed and jumped out too.
Running toward the old train station, they hear another scream. They were careful to stay in the shadows incase it really was Jack. Getting to the clearing they all saw what was really there.
"Oh it's just a bunch of humans. Some really ugly one at that. What are they doing to that girl?" Barrel said squinting his eyes against the bright lights.
"That's Sarah." Lock said in a small timid voice. "But look...I think they're hurting her! Come on, let's help her! Come on, they don't look that scary. We can take them." He flashed his friends a cynical smile.
"Yes...I do believe we can!" Shock said giving her own Fanged smile back.
"Come on Barrel!" Shock bellowed grabbing his hand and pulling him out of the clearing.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Face it Girly, No one can hear you scream. So why don't you just hand over any valuables your carrying. Then...I might let you go." The guy holding her was growing impatient.
He suddenly heard some sounds coming from the woods.
"Oi, Jim...Carol, go see who's in the woods. I think I saw some one." He said pointing to the aria of where Lock Shock and Barrel were crouching.
Sarah took the slight moment of distraction of her captor to her advantage. She twisted herself around, and kneaded him in the stomach. He let go out of surprise and pain. In anger the man ran after her, grabbing her arms once again. She struggled to get away again, but at the same time was watching the edge of the woods to see who was lurking around.
Lock Shock and Barrel watched as the two men approached.
"Hey! It's just a bunch of kids!" The guy named Jim yelled.
"Well get them out of here!" Sarah's captor yelled.
"Hey you kids...get out of there! Don't worry, we wont hurt you!" Jim yelled.
The trio just looked at each other. "Ok two things," Lock began. "One: We are not that stupid, I know just as well as you do you will try to kill us as soon as we get out. However it would be near imposable for a human to destroy us so easily. Two: We have names..."
"Oh forgive me, I didn't ask your names...how rude of me. Why don't you give me your names? Then we will be good friends and you can come out of the woods." Sneered Jim in a very sarcastic voice.
"Alright then," Lock flashes a toothy grin that caught the light of the moon, casting a glow over his face. His pale yellow eyes gazed into Jim's. The three could be quite scary if they chose to. It was just never their style to scare people. "I'm Lock!" He said as he jumped out of the woods.
"Shock!" Shock said leaping out of the woods as well.
"Barrel!" Barrel came rolling out last.
The tree of them stood in front of Jim and Carol with their hands behind their back.
"What are you three holding?" inquired Carol.
"Do you think we should show them?" Shock said in a mocking tone. But before they could continue with their usual game of torment, Jim pulled out a hand gun.
"Cut the crap, and show me what you have behind your backs you little brats!"
Lock Shock and Barrel just looked at each other.
"Fine! We'll show you! Man this guy wants to ruin every ones fun don't they?" Shocked whined. She then pulled a large club with nails sticking out from odd angles from behind her back. Lock slowly pulled an axe from behind hid back.
"Did you think your little weapons could hurt us? I bet you couldn't even lift them high enough to hurt us! You there in the stupid skeleton suit...what do you have a tooth pick?" Carol laughed at his own joke.
Barrel held up a lit match, smiling.
"So that's all you have? That little match...what were you planning to do? Burn my whiskers off? Ha!"
"Not quite..." Barrel said smiling, stepping to the right to reveal a cannon.
"Oh kid you wouldn't!" Said Jim in a frantic voice.
"Oh I would!" Barrel said with a wicked smile. He stepped backwards and put the match up to the wick. It made a sizzle as it caught fire and slowly moved down toward the cannon.
"Let's get the hell out of here! Forget about the girl boss! These kids are insane!" Carol screamed as he scrambled to get away.
Suddenly a loud BOOM Rung out in the night as the cannon fired. It hit the train station with a defining crack, as it hit a major support beam.
"Well that building probably won't last long..." Shock said, cocking her head to one side.
Lock suddenly looked over toward Sarah, who was making her way over to the trio to thank them for saving her.
She suddenly set her eyes upon Lock, who up until now didn't have a good look of his face because of the darkness.
Sarah realized the stranger looked just like her dead brother. "Ok...This is *so* not what I need right now"
A/N Yay! I finally didn't give you a short chapter...lol hey I updated this pretty quick for me ^^ hope you liked it! Review please! I love getting them!
