Yay, another chapter. thank you for reading this far. I'm going to be ending this story pretty soon. Don't worry, it's not this chapter, but another one coming up. Then I have to come up with something else. Please if you are going to review (I hope you review) give me an idea for the next story. I haven't been giving much thought. Oh well, here's the story before you get anymore bored.

Jack stared at the ashes. The flame was coming to an end. Lock and Shock were crying over the loss of their brother. Jack was helping rebuild the town. Not many people died permanently. Most of them rose a couple of hours later. But the kids new that Barrel had already died once. Jack was gathering the ashes into a vase. He saw something white at the bottom. He poked it. Jack gasped in surprise.

"Sally, come quick… and get your father!" ordered Jack.

"What is it?" asked Sally.

"Just hurry!"

"Okay!"

Sally ran for Dr. Finklestein. She didn't know what Jack was so crazy about. She ran over to the laboratory the she knew all to well. She barged into her father's room and woke him up. She threw him into his chair and pushed him out the door before he could even open his eyes. She brought him to Jack.

"What is this all about!" yelled the doctor angrily.

"Take a look at this!" Jack answered. He showed him the remains and under it was the white figure. Jack shook the figure and a white ghost of a Barrel appeared.

"It's Barrel!" yelled the doctor.

"Why did you wake me up?" asked Barrel.

"Barrel…you kinda…your like a…" said Sally.

"What's wrong?" asked Barrel.

"You're a ghost." answered Jack.

"What!"

"You heard me, you're a ghost. I had to kinda…kill you 'cause Bob was in you. But, you turned into a ghost instead of dying. It's weird. Maybe the doctor can help. I know he can make living things, how hard would making a body be? Doctor…"

"I don't know, that kid is a menace…maybe becoming a ghost was a good thing." said the Doctor.

"You know I don't like to use the authority card, but this is it…I am Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King, and I order you to do this. NOW GET ON IT!" yelled Jack.

"Geez! Ok, ok!"

Sorry, kinda short. But oh well, my summer break just started. I got a whole week until summer school. Just to let you guys know, I'm not in summer school because I failed or something, but I chose to get some classes out of the way, Thank You Very Much! Hope you like!
