((wooooot! I got some reviews! Oh and just for those who might be asking this in their head; 'DarkHolly' and the character Holly have nothing in common other then the name. The character Holly is nothing like me, I am a spontaneous, hyper-active teenage girl. Anyways its time to reply to some of the reviews I've received for the first chapter:
"I can definetlely see Holly getting into all kinds of mischief in Halloween Town and especially with Lock,Shock and Barrel.So far I'm finding the story to be very well written and I can almost clearly see Holly in the story...but while you mentioned she was the younger sister you did not mention how old Holly is. Other then that I'm enjoying it so far. :)
Double points for orginality. :)"

Thanks Imagi for the review. Yeeees, I have some plans for those lil trick-or-treaters. Yay, I'm so glad that you think its well written I've never been to confident in my writing skills even though my parents say that I'm a great writer (you know who parents have a problem with saying that you're good even if you're not)….and the fact that I didn't mention Holly's age in the first chapter was that I was planning on mentioning it in this chapter along with some other juicy details.

Chapter 2: The Trapdoor and Someplace New
As Holly walked down the dark streets, watching the small childeren in their costumes and the houses with their spooky decorations up, she began to think on how she was going to get by, Oh man..what am I thinking?! I'm only sixteen and I don't even have a liscense yet. How far can a sixteen-year-old girl go without a car, money, and a place to stay. Pretty soon they're realize that I'm gone and have to whole police station out looking for me….or maybe they're just leave me be. Holly shook her head at that thought, she knew that even though her family didn't like her or love her, they wouldn't let her just disappear and loose their house cleaner. She heaves a heavy sigh then laughs at a group of childeren shriek and runaway from a person disquised as a limp scarecrow.
She glanced down at her watch, it had already been an hour since she escaped from her room, she must've been walking much slower than she had thought because she was only a few blocks from her house. She was filled with relief, she hadn't seen any patroling police cars, or anyone looking for her. Maybe they couldn't go up to her room to check on her, she stopped seeing in front of a house. Its windows were lit with alternating red, blue, purple, and green lights with dark sillouttes of people dancing to the booming music. She was now staning at the house of the Halloween party that she was suppose to go to. Holly grinned and started up the path to the front door, it wouldn't hurt to stop by for just a few minutes, just to say a quick hello, to have some Halloween punch, and to see her friends for the last time. She knocked then slowly opened to door, she was welcomed by the host's parents and was led into the room where the party was. It was the most beautiful sight Holly had even seen, all the different costumes, the decorations. Holly looked around the room, trying to pick out her friends, she smiles and pushes through the dancing crowd to one of her friends. She poped out of the crowd and looked at the person then sighed, it wasn't who she thought it was. She walked over to the punch bowl and took a glass.
At just about that time, there was another knock at that very same house. It was the cops. The two officers showed a photo of Holly to the parents and they pointed to the party. They began to walk around, looking at every-single person, taking off their masks, costume make-up. Holly looked up, her eyes widen seeing the police, "Crap!" Holly turned looking around, she dove into the kitchen and went out the back door. The cops must've saw her dive out because when she rounded the front, the two police officers shot out of the front door and took after her shouting after her. Holly closed her eyes and took on running down the street as fast as she could, she could hear the footsteps of one of the cops running after her and then a car door slamming shut, followed by the sound of sirens and a car engine. Her plan was all falling apart. If she just didn't stop at the party she would've been fine. She dover through a yard and jumped over a fence and down the next street. She could hear the rattling of the metal fence as the cop went over it. She sliped through a gate and dove behind a stone. She was in a cementary. She backed up against a statue, her chest heaving in and out as she swallowed a lump in her throat. She heard the cop approaching, this was it, she was in for it now. Holly sighed then shreiked as statue opened up and she fell through .
Instead of hitting the ground, Holly found herself falling in a dark abyss. Autumn leaves swirled around her in a howling wind. She was consumed by fear, she reached out with her hands grabbing for something that was there. She going to die. If not from the impact of hitting the ground then from starvation or old age from being lost at the bottom of some seemingly bottomless hole. She closed her eyes, not wanting to see her demise.
Holly opened her eyes slowly, she stopped falling. Her jaw dropped as she looked around, she was in a pumkin patch outside of a strange town. "I don't think I'm in Kansas anymore, Toto…" She stood up and slowly crept inside the town, she screamed as a ghoul pops out of a trashcan at her, she placed her hand over her heart. She turned and ran through the town then crouched in a dark corner. She closed her eyes shut, "This can't be real this can't be real…I fell and bonked my head…now I'm unconcious..this is just a big dream…that's all…"
