This is the story through Sally's eyes. Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I own none of the characters.
I knew I loved him
That guy named Jack
When he went into the sky
I thought he'd never come back.
He proved me wrong
That fateful night
My side of the story is what I now write.
I was born in a lab
Or should I say made.
With hair of red
And eyes of jade.
I wanted to fit in
To be part of the world
But he always said
"You're not ready, foolish girl!"
But that didn't stop me
From my nighttime raids
For I had discovered
A wonderful little thing called Deadly Night Shade.
I would put it in his tea
And he would fall asleep
And I would sneak out so he wouldn't hear a peep.
One day, my beloved Jack
Told the town of this magical place
I'll never forget
The smile on his bony face.
He wove a magical tale
Of trees covered with light
Of presents and mistletoe
And that one special night
That night that came
Only once a year
That night that brought
Everyone such cheer.
He then decided
We should give it a try
I had a bad feeling
But I didn't know why
He then asked me
To make him a suit
I didn't question
Why he made this irrational pursuit
It was wrong to steal another holiday
And I'm sure Mr. Claws agrees
I seemed to be the only one
Who noticed the problems no one sees.
He then decided to kidnap Santa
He had just gone too far
But everyone kept singing
The mayor kept shouting from his car.
Then that night had come
That night that I'd been dreading
Who knows where his
Good intentions were heading.
When I heard that Jack
Had been shot down
I didn't believe it
Sandy must be somewhere around.
I found Mr. Claws
In Oogie Boogie's lair
As I attempted to rescue him
I fell and got cobwebs in my hair.
I knew he would come
I knew that he was fine
He realized he didn't acknowledge Sandy's feelings
And certainly not mine.
As the town celebrated their
Holiday delight
I snuck off to the cemetery,
away and out of sight.
As I sat alone
I heard a voice
When I saw that it was him
I began to rejoice
I finally knew the way he
Felt about me
We then both agreed
That we were meant to be.
That is my story
Simple and plain
I cannot wait for Christmas to come again.
That magical night
That comes once a year
That night where we in Halloweentown
Had celebrated with cheer.
After that night
Things were not what they were
The collision of holidays
Was not expected to occur.
We all now knew
Of those other days of the year
That bring out in everyone
Happiness and cheer
I end this now
And say goodbye
Sincerely
Sally Finkelstein
