Jack stopped and got zero on his way out to the woods. Zero would
light the way with his nose, since the woods were pitch black. Zero would
also keep him company since it was a rather long walk.
"Zero; my boy you must promise me that you'll come immediately and quickly if Sally starts to have our child." Jack said
Zero barked back in reply, and licked Jacks hand.
"That a boy, Zero." Jack said patting him on his head.
Several hours later Jack reached the doors into the other towns. He patted Zero good bye and said "You be a good boy, and take care of Sally for me. Bye now" He then opened the door and was sucked in.
Swirling and spinning he went, threw a dark tunnel. Then with a light thud he landed on the soft green, dew covered grass. It was just starting to get light; he had made it just in time. He went wandering off threw the grassy, flower covered field; he had to find the meeting place in this strange, cheerful, colorful place.
Eventually he came upon a bunch of houses, and buildings out in the field. The houses were all very cute. They were mainly white, light pink, violet, yellow and light blue. They all had small front yards; with fancy picket fences. There were gardens in every yard. Jack had never every seen so many, delightful color's in his life. He was absolutely amazed.
Jack was told to meet in the tallest building. It was white and contained a giant golden bell in the top. They called it a church. Jack never heard of anything called a church before, but they told him it was a place where they gave thanks, and talked about the mighty one called God. God they told him, created everyone. Jack never heard of anything such as this and thought it was rather ridiculous.
Jack noticed the church almost immediately since the bell started ringing. It also stuck out since it was so huge. The ringing of the bell startled Jack. It was so loud, and seemed to make the ground vibrate. Jack was thinking that a bell would be a good, and easy way to call town meetings in Halloween Town, and decided he would ask about how it worked.
He made his way inside the building, it seemed everyone was already there. A rabbit in which he had met once before came hopping up to him and shook his hand.
"Jack Skellington, we meet again. I welcome you to Easter Town. You made it just in time, the meetings are about to start." Said the Easter Bunny.
"Thank you, and I am so dearly sorry about our last meeting." Jack replied.
The Easter Bunny just smiled and hopped away. Jack went and took a seat in the first row. The building was huge and contained about two hundred rows of seats; there was a large stage, and a piano in the front. The windows were neatly decorated, with colors and different drawings.
"Every one, please take a seat!" The Easter Bunny shouted into a microphone, "The first meeting is about to begin!"
Everyone in the room began to make there way to a seat. Someone Jack new pretty good came over and took a seat next to him.
"Santy Claws, how are you my old friend?" Said Jack
"Mr. Skellington, nice to see you again. How have you been?" Said Santa.
"I have good, I recently got married and I am expecting a child in about three weeks." Jack said, "How have you been?"
"I have been good. We celebrated Christmas last month, and all went well. By the way congrats, on getting married!" Santa said smiling a jolly smile.
As Jack looked around the room he noticed all the different people who had come to the gathering. There was a large bird, a little green man, a short chubby man with wings carrying a bow with arrows that had heart shaped ends, and a tall skinny man wearing red, white, and blue. There of course was also Santa Clause, the Easter Bunny, and him; Jack Skellington. Meaning that there must be, eight holiday towns.
"Welcome everyone. I am glad you could all make it to this years Holiday Gathering. I hope you all will enjoy your stay here at Easter Town." Said the Easter Bunny, "Today we'll all take time and introduce ourselves, the town you come from, and the holiday you represent." "I'll start" He continued "and then you can all take turns to come up here to talk." "Anyways, I am the Easter Bunny. On a holiday called Easter, I hop around and deliver baskets of goodies to everyone in my town. Easter is celebrated in April, and the main purpose of it is to celebrate the day Jesus was resurrected." Then the Easter Bunny hopped off the stage and joined everyone else on the bench.
Santa Clause then rose from sitting next to Jack Skellington and wobbled up to the stage. He then introduced himself, and his holiday.
The bird then rose off the seat and strode up to the stage. "Hullo" Said the bird "I am the Magic Turkey, I come from Thanksgiving Town. In November the people in my town join together and have a huge feast. The night before the feast I fly around and drop presents off at the houses for all the people to have." He hopped off the stage and took a seat back on the bench.
Next the short green man climbed up the stairs to the stage with difficulty. "Hey there, I am St. Patrick the Leprechaun, I come from St. Patrick Town. St. Patrick Day is held in March. On this day we have a huge parade. I am in the parade, with some of my leprechaun friends. We fly around and throw out candy, and gold as we pass by. Everyone in our town always have to wear something green or you'll get yourself a nice hard pinch!" St. Patrick said, with an evil grin. He then hopped down the stairs and sat back in his seat.
The short chubby man fluttered up to the stage with his stubby wings and landed gently. He began to talk immediately, starting out with clearing his throat. "I am Cupid. I live in Valentine Town. On Valentines Day I fly around shooting people with arrows making them fall in love with each other. The people in my town hand out candy, and valentine cards on our Holiday." He said in a dreamy sort of voice.
"Hello, my name is Sam. I come from a town that on July 4th has a huge celebration. We celebrate by having a feast and lighting off fireworks. We also sing during our holiday." Said the tall man wearing red, white, and blue.
Now it was Jacks turn. He walked up there, with a wide grin on his face. He was so excited. "Hello everyone! My name is Jack Skellington, and I come from Halloween Town. Halloween Town is a most delightful place, filled with a lot of interesting people." Jack said, "I am the Pumpkin King of Halloween Town, and with the help of the Mayor, and my wife we run our town, and make plans for Halloween. On Halloween we celebrate by having a parade, singing, handing out candy, scaring each other, and having a huge feast." Then with a bow Jack left the stage and went and sat down.
"Thank you all for introducing yourselves, I hope everyone now knows everyone, and what their holiday is about. We shall have a feast now, so come and follow me upstairs please." Said the Easter Bunny, leading the way threw a door way and up the stairs.
Everyone got up and followed. They made it up the stairs and sat around a huge table. There were many different types of foods. Jack had never, ever even seen most of them before. He filled his plate with a little bit of everything. It all tasted really good.
After everyone had, had their feeling the Easter Bunny again stood up to speak.
"I hope you all enjoyed your meal. You may all go now and explore Easter Town. The Towns People well help you out if you need anything. Be sure to meet back here by dark. Oh yeah, and also stay away from the big stone building. It is said to be haunted, and very strange things can happen when anyone enters it." He said. He then went hopping into another room.
Everyone rose slowly from the table; they all talked for a bit, and then went on their way to explore Easter Town.
"Zero; my boy you must promise me that you'll come immediately and quickly if Sally starts to have our child." Jack said
Zero barked back in reply, and licked Jacks hand.
"That a boy, Zero." Jack said patting him on his head.
Several hours later Jack reached the doors into the other towns. He patted Zero good bye and said "You be a good boy, and take care of Sally for me. Bye now" He then opened the door and was sucked in.
