Alright, alright… I agree that it was somewhat of a bad idea to let Scarlet see Jack, but you'll see later what happens… I'm so evil.
She glides through the graveyard and up to the hill. She was dressed in a wedding dress, and she was muttering something under her breath. She was killed the second before she got married, and nobody knows why. She planned to find whoever killed her and track that person down… after she found out where she was.
And she didn't even know her own name.
(Announcer: Oh my god! That's my favorite character on Corpse Bride!
Kassi: He hasn't even seen the movie, of course. It's not out yet!
Announcer: Really? Well, anyway… Hi Mom! She almost killed me for not doing this in the last book…
Kassi: O.o)
"Welcome to Halloween Town!"
She spun around to find a skeleton coming toward her. "Don't be scared, my name is Jack Skellington, the King of Halloween. Please, come with me."
((Author's Note: Do you see how Jack did that? It's almost like, Scarlet isn't dead… hint But then also, the girl's appearance isn't exactly Scarlet's opinion, either…))
The girl nods and glides behind him, and studying him. He looked like he had something on his mind.
"Um, Jack, sir, where am I?" The girl asks, continuing to glide.
"You're n Halloween Town, of course! But you're the first dead bride we've had here!"
"I'm dead!"
"Yes. Do you remember anything?"
"I think…" The girl pauses. "I remember saying my vows to my beautiful Victor-"
"Whatever, skip that part and tell me ho you died."
"I was about ready to say 'I do', but then as I said 'I', there as a gunfire and I blacked out. Then I was here."
Jack stops and looks down at the bride.
"Ouch. Looks like somebody shot you in the back and it went straight through your heart."
"WHAAAAT!"
"Looks like you died after about an hour in the hospital, from your memories."
The girl slumps down and puts her arms around her knees. Then she starts crying.
Jack then bends down beside the girl.
"At least you aren't hurting now. I know somebody who's in a heck of a lot of damage right now."
The girl looks up. "Who?"
"Her name is Scarlet. Scarlet Tail."
That name raced through her mind, unlocking tons of old memories.
"Can I see her?"
"I guess. She gave us a heck of a scare earlier"-Jack grinned-"of course she's feeling better now, but are you sure you want to see her?"
"You DO want to make me feel welcome here, don't you?"
Jack kept a smug grin on his face. "Feisty. Just like you used to be."
"Whaaaatttt?"
"Nothing."
After a while, the two come to the witches' house. Jack opens the door and lets the girl go in first. Jack goes straight up the stairs, after dodging boiling pots, that is. Jack taps the keyhole and the door opens.
There was nobody inside. Not even Scarlet.
"What do we do in here?"
"Uh… hang on."
Jack goes out of the room, leaving the girl all alone. The girl could hear Jack yelling for somebody --or something-- named Snap.
The girl sits down in the chair and started to think.
Who was she?
Was she really that scary?
How did this guy named Jack know where she was?
How did she know that she got shot in the heart and died an hour later in the hospital?
(Announcer: She could be Michael Jackson and Jack's a big fan!
Kassi: …that is reasonable…
Author: What has happened to the world? O.o)
The girl hears somebody storming down the stairs. Then she hears a woman start to yell at Jack. The girl smiles.
