I only own my OC, Taylor, I do not own Tess, Bentley, Qwark, or any of the ParaNorman characters.


Taylor, Tess, Norman and the other kids head for a corner, when Norman said, "Hurry! This way!"

Everyone peeked at the corner, and saw the townspeople fighting the zombies, Tess soon said, "Now that is something you don't see every day."

They even see the woman who had ketchup on her face screamed and mad a run for it.

"Oh, this is awful!" Courtney said, while looking, then said, "The zombies are, like, eating everyone!"

Norman soon looked, and saw the sign saying

HISTORIC
TOWN HALL

There was an arrow under the words, then, Norman said, "Come on!" Taylor, Tess, Norman, Neil, Alvin, Courtney, and Mitch soon ran through, while the townspeople still fight the zombies.

They soon reached town hall, while seeing the clouds spread further. Taylor said, "Things are starting to get a bit worse if we don't stop the witch, while facing Mz. Ruby."

Norman looked, and asked, "Is everyone all right? Nobody got bitten?"

Neil stuck out his tongue, and replied, "I bit my tongue. Does that count?"

"I don't think so," Tess replied.

Norman tries to open it, but the door rattles and didn't open. Norman looks at the sky, then looks at the group, and asked, "Does anyone know how to pick a lock?"

Everyone soon looked at Alvin, who was picking his nose, causing Taylor and Tess to wince in disgust, he soon looks at the group, and replied, "Sure. Picking locks is my thing." While he said, 'my thing,' he was snapping his fingers. He grabbed the folding sign, tossed at the window, which broke it, reached out, unlocked it from the inside, opened it, and said, "Boom."

Everyone looked at him in shock, then Taylor said, "That was more of a break in than a lockpicking." The thunder rumbled again, and the group ran in, but then Taylor grabbed Tess, put her down, and said, "Tess, I want you to stay here, and keep watch."

"Got it," Tess said, while saluting. Taylor soon went in, then put on her goggles, and used her Enhanced Clairvoyance to see what Tess looked, who saw Hopkins' arm crawled away from the hall, but was grabbed by Hopkins himself, while he reattached it, and went to somewhere.

Taylor took off her goggles and helped the group barricade the doors. Norman looked, and said, "This is it!"

"This is?" Neil asked, looking at a sign, saying, 'HALL OF RECORDS."

Norman replied, "Now we can find out where the witch was buried." Norman walked to the doors, but soon gave a sad look, for there were a lot of files, causing him to say, "Uh-oh."

Everyone looked at the place, causing Mitch to say, "Whoa!"

"Great. I'm super-psyched," Courtney said sarcastically, then said, "This is turning into the most fun night ever!"

Alvin soon said, "Man! Zombies take over the world and we lock ourselves in a library! Are you kidding me? There's an adult video store just across the street."

"Now's not a good time for something like that, Alvin," Taylor said.

"This will be a piece of cake, you'll see," Neil said, looking at a book, and said, "Page one." Norman scoffed, and said, "Okay, page one."

Mitch sighed, and said, "I really hate these places," he soon grabbed some books, and using them as barbells.

Norman soon said, "Come on," he looks at a book, and said, "That's not it. Time is running out."

Taylor soon decided to see what Qwark is seeing, and maybe Perry.

Qwark sees the townspeople still fighting, while the man who first saw them yelled, "Ain't room for no more zombies in this town!"

While a guy with lawn darts said in a slow tone, "Yeah!"

Then Qwark saw Hopkins, who saw the zombies being beaten by the people saying, "Huh?" He walked forward, but then a gun was shot, he soon said, "Oh!" and looked down to see a hole in his chest.

Qwark saw the woman with the shotgun, and shouted, "Ya-ha-hoo!" and danced.

Hopkins then mumbled, and gestured something, and caused the zombies to come to him, and follow him, while trying to get away from the townspeople, but one got its arm taking by the daughter of the woman with ketchup on her face, who exclaims joyfully.

Taylor soon switched to Perry, who had the cop that chased the kids, who was the sheriff, who said, "It would have been a quiet night, too, if it hadn't been for those meddling kids. Hmm!" She soon looked ahead, and said, "Sweet baby jinkies!" They soon saw the riot, which caused Perry to pull stop. The sheriff got out of the car, then grabbed a gun from a woman after she fired, and yelled, "What do you think you're doing firing at civilians? That is for the police to do!"

"Oh, no, no, it's okay, Sheriff," said her deputy, who soon explained, "We've only been shooting at the dead ones. It's the living dead, come to take us all to heck! We've got to stop them before they get away!"

Taylor rook off her goggles, and said, "Too late for that." She put them back on, so she can see what Tess can see.

Tess soon sees the zombies heading for town hall. They soon went to a back entrance. Hopkins mumbled a bit, and tried to open it, but couldn't, for it was locked. The soon gasped as they looked up and saw the face of Agatha looking at them. Hopkins grabbed the door, and broke it to and they went in, but not without Tess seeing Miss Henscher seeing them going in with a glare and grumble.

Tess knew she had to find Taylor and went in through a ventilation system.

Taylor soon took off her goggles, and grabbed Qwark's fake laser gun, to see what he sees.

Qwark sees everyone have gone crazy, while the Sheriff tries to calm people down, while saying, "Move along now, people! There isn't anything to see here!"

Qwark soon saw Miss Henscher climbed up Perry's car, and announced, "I saw them! I saw them! They're in the town hall!" Everyone cheered, as she yelled, "Cry 'Havoc,' and let slip the dogs of war!" Everyone stopped cheering, for they didn't understand her. Miss Henscher paused, and yelled, "Let's rip 'em apart!" Everyone soon resumed their cheering, causing Qwark to think the town has gone nuts.


The kids reached town hall, but now have to find the record to where Agatha was buried, and the town really has gone nuts with the whole zombie fiasco.
