My Nightmare Come True
Chapter 3: What's this?
The story continues, WITH MORE SONGS! WE ALL LOVE SONGS! I don't use the good is bad and bad is good thing, it's too confusing for me so just bare with me.
I waited impatiently as Sally placed the Deadly Nightshade into the jar. Just then scary music started to play and I knew, the doctor was coming. I frantically looked at Sally, and then went over to a hiding place. Sally quickly put the jar into the cabinet.
"Sally, you've come back". He said as he continued to roll down the ramp.
"I had to". She said sorrowfully. I crouched even lower, not wanting to be seen.
"For this". He said mockingly, waving Sally's unattached arm triumphantly in the air. My eyes turned to slits, man he was a jerk. I gave her a look of guilt. No one should have to be a prisoner; I know how it feels when master grounds me. Like she probably will when we get back
"Yes". She said still backed up against the cabinet, trying to hide the Deadly Nightshade.
"Shall we then"? He said mockingly, she bowed her head in defeat and obediently followed. But just then the doctor did something I didn't expect; he stopped. I raised an eyebrow, what was he doing? He turned back to Sally, and then looked over to where I was hiding.
"And you can bring your little human friend with you". He said, still looking towards my spot. How in the world did he know I was here, I know he's a genius but I mean come on! I slowly and shakily got up from my spot and gulped. I walked over to Sally and clung on to her dress. She looked down at me hesitantly, I looked up and smiled to her; telling her everything was going to be alright. Now wait a minute, I was no coward. I let go of her dress and stood up straight and tall. I don't know why I was afraid of the freaky duck dude in the first place.
"Pleasure to meet you my dear." He said to me, I gave a curt nod not keeping my eyes off him.
"Well then, on we go". He said continuing up the ramp, Sally and I looked at each other and nodded. 'I bet master doesn't have to deal with this'.
10 minutes later
"That's twice this month you've slipped deadly nightshade into my tea and run off". The doc said as he was sewing Sally's arm back on.
"Three times". She said.
"Your mine you know, I made you with my own hands".
"Surprising, seeing how small those things are". I mumbled, I was sitting down on the floor near a corner.
"You, should learn how to keep your mouth shut. You're lucky I don't experiment on you"! He shouted at me, I lowered my eyebrows.
"No, leave her alone"! Sally shouted, as the doctor finished her arm. I stood up.
"Don't worry Sally, I'm not afraid of the ugly duckling". I said, my voice raising. He started to roll over to me and stopped just a few inches away.
"Let me make a deal with you my dear".
Aubrey's POV
We spun. Around and around and around and around and….well, you get it. The portal was blue with white snowflakes flying around. Everything cleared up and we were dizzy. We looked around at the beautiful sight, of Christmas town. Just then jingly music started to play, I forgot about 'What's this'? Jack leaned forward and his hand fell through the cold fluffy snow. He pulled it up and took a bite from the stack in his hand. He stuck it out in front of my mouth, so I took a bite too. Just then he leaned over too much and slid down the hill. I immediately slid down on my back after him. He fell into a pile of snow, and when he popped up; well you know what happens next.
Jack: What's this, what's this? There's color everywhere
What's this, there's white things in the air.
What's this?I can't believe my eyes I must be dreaming wake up Jack this isn't fair, what's this?
Aubrey: What's this, what's this? There's something very wrong.
What's this, there people singing songs.
What's this, the streets are lined with little creatures laughing everybody seems so happy have we possibly gone daffy, what is this? What's this?
Aubrey: There's children throwing snowballs
Jack: Instead of throwing heads
Aubrey: They're busy building toys
Jack: And absolutely no one's dead
Aubrey & Jack: There's frost on every window
Oh we can't believe our eyes
And in our bones we feel the warmth that's coming from inside.
Jack: Oh look! What's this? They're hanging mistletoe. They kiss?
When he sung that line he looked at me and raised an eyebrow. That made me blush and I quickly looked away, I don't know why. I shook my head back into focus and realized that the music was still playing; it was my turn to sing.
Aubrey: Why that looks so unique
Jack: Inspired!
I blushed again, and I could feel it.
Jack: They're gathering around to hear a story, roasting chestnuts on a fire, what's this?
Aubrey: Come look, in here, they've got a little tree.
Jack: How queer, and who would ever think, and why?
They're covering it with tiny little things they've got electric lights on strings
Aubrey: And there's a smile on everyone
So now correct me if I'm wrong this looks like fun
Jack: This looks like fun, oh could it be we got our wish?
Aubrey & Jack: What's this?
He crept up the wall and slowly opened the window. I looked around for something for me to climb on since I can't possible do that. A long arm came in front of me, it was Jack's. I smiled than grabbed his hand; as soon as I touched it he grabbed on tight and pulled me up.
Aubrey: Oh my, what now? The children are asleep
Jack: But look, there's nothing underneath, no ghouls, no witches here to scream or scare them or ensnare them
Aubrey: Only little cozy things secure inside their, dream land.
He sighed sweetly.
Aubrey & Jack: What's this?
We both shouted then jumped out of the window.
Jack: The monsters are all missing and the nightmares can't be found
And in their place there seems to be good feeling all around
Instead of screams I swear I can hear music in the air
I took a big sniff.
Aubrey: The smell of cakes and pies are absolutely everywhere.
I took in the sweet aroma, so wonderful. Jack was hanging from the decoration holding on to the umbrella, I was holding on to his feet. We both dropped onto the Christmas merry-go-round.
Aubrey & Jack: The sights the sounds, there everywhere and all, around
We've never felt good before; this empty place inside of us is filling up
We simply cannot get enough, we want it oh we want it
Oh we want for our own; we've got to know we've got to know
What is this place that we have found, what. Is. This?
Just then we crashed, Jack crashed into one pole I crashed into the other, and we both fell in the snow.
"Christmas town"? Jack asked, I looked over to him. He looked at me and I shrugged. Just then we heard a deep voice shout.
"Ho, ho, ho"! We looked over that way to see the shadow of none other than, Sandy Claws. Or you probably know him as, Santa Clause.
Ashley's POV
This place was strange, there were so many things that I didn't understand. But I guess that is something I would have to deal with. I looked around at all the strange citizens walking around. Real monsters, wow. How are the girls taking it so well?
"Ok girls, Tammy said that we should just go on with the movie. Any idea what part of the movie we're in?" I asked.
"Jack you home?" We all heard a voice said. We all turned that way to see the mayor knocking at Jack's door.
"Jack! I've got the plans for next Halloween; I need to go over them with you so we can get started". He dropped the paper and turned to his sad expression.
"Jack please, I'm only an elected official I can't make decisions for myself". We all tried to contain our laughter. The mayor waited a few more moments then took out his megaphone.
"JACK! ANSWER MEE AHHHHHHHHH"! He said slipping and rolling down Jack's front steps. I bet Aubrey knows how that feels.
"Come on guys". I said walking over Jack's front gate, I looked around; the band wasn't there. Who was supposed to tell the mayor Jack wasn't home? Then it hit me, it was us! Aubrey kept Jack singing, so we had to take care of things in town. I cleared my throat and walked forward.
"Uh, he's not home Mr. Mayor Sir". I said, he turned to me and realized that we were not residents.
"Where is he"? He asked getting up and dusting himself off.
"He hasn't been home all night". Courtney stepped in, I looked at her; apparently she was catching on. Good for her.
"Sound the alarm"! The mayor shouted. We all looked towards the sound.
"Who are you"? He asked opening Jack's gates. We all turned back to him.
"It's a long story". I said guiding him into town, my friends following.
Tammy's POV
We both had heard the alarm and walked over to the window. The doctor and I had made an agreement; he would let me stay with him and Sally if I worked. Cleaned, cooked, run errands and other stuff. Right now Sally and I were preparing the doctor some soup just some nice sweet soup…..well. I looked up the ramp then looked back to Sally and gave her a sly smile. She nodded her head; I nodded back and headed over to the cabinet. I opened it and reached inside only to take out the jar full of Deadly Nightshade. I closed the cabinet and walked over to her handing her the jar. She walked over to the boiling cauldron and poured it in. The stuff looked liked barf! I walked over to it also. First came the skull smoke then, the smell. We both looked at each other then plugged our noses. Sally went back over to the cabinet.
"Frogs breath will overpower any odor". She said opening the jar. This one smelt even worse!
"Bitter"! We said, this time I headed over to the cabinet.
"Worms wart, where is that worms wart"? I asked between coughs, flinging random bottles until I found it. I was just about to pour it in when I heard shouting.
"Sally, Tammy! Is that soup ready yet"? The doctor shouted, I poured it in.
"Coming"! We shouted back up.
"Nice call with the Worms wart". Sally said to me.
"Aw, I'm sure you would have done the same thing". I said, she looked at me surprised.
"You really think so"? She asked me.
"Trust me Sals, trust me".
We walked into the room; Sally was carrying the soup because I can be a big klutz.
"Lunch". She said bringing it to the doctor, who was closing his lid. He leaned close and took in the aroma.
"Mmm, what's this? Warms wart"! He said sniffing it again.
"And Frogs breath"? He said suspiciously, looking up at us.
"What's wrong"? Sally asked.
"We thought you liked Frogs breath". I said, I gotta admit Sally and I can be pretty good liars.
"Nothing's more suspicious than Frogs breath. Until one of you tries it". He said pushing the bowl towards us.
"We're not hungry". She said doing a motion with her arms, making the doctor drop the spoon.
"You two want me to starve, an old man like myself who hardly has enough strength as it is". While he was rambling on Sally was switching the spoons.
"Me, who you two owe everything to".
"Oh don't be silly". Sally said.
"Yeah, don't be so dramatic doc". I said, Sally brought it back up and stuck it in the soup. She took a sip.
"Mmm, see. Scrumptious". She said pushing the bowl back towards him. He looked at us again, before drinking the whole thing down. Sally and I watched in amusement.
Ashley's POV
"We've got to find Jack! There's only 365 days until next Halloween"! The mayor shouted through his megaphone.
"364"! Courtney shouted, I elbowed her.
"What"? She asked me.
"Not helping". I replied sternly.
"Is there any place that we've forgotten to check".
"I looked through every mausoleum". The clown said.
"We opened the circoffiguy". The witches said.
"I trumped through the pumpkin patch". Mr. Hyde said coming back with a pumpkin on his foot.
"I peaked behind the Cyclops eye. I did! But he wasn't there". The vampire said taking out his eye. I almost upchucked.
"We have to keep looking"! The mayor shouted.
"We're willing to help mayor"! I shouted, he turned to us and put on his happy face.
"Splendid, thank you girls".
Somewhat hours later
"Did anyone think to drench the lake"? The mayor asked, obviously worn out. We all were, we've been looking for hours. Sam sighed.
"This morning". She said, just then there was a barking.
"Hear that"? I asked
"What"? Courtney asked, I hit her behind the head. The mayor sat up and turned to his happy side.
"Zero"! The girls and I shouted. And sure enough, Zero came flying through the gates, and right behind him. Was Jack and Aubrey.
"Jack's back"! The citizens shouted, the girls and I jumped up.
"Aubrey"! We shouted, running towards the machine.
"Where have you been? And who is this"? He asked gesturing towards Aubrey.
"Call a town meeting and we'll tell everyone all about it". Jack said.
"When"? The mayor asked, they shouted this last part together.
"Immediately"!
So, a town meeting. Tammy's with Sally, Sam, Ashley, and Courtney are hanging around town, and Aubrey's with Jack. We'll see how things go from here on. This took a long time to write so I hoped you enjoyed it. Also, I mixed around the lyrics to What's this? and the way the scenes are, it's going to happen more than once thanks. Till then. PEACE XD
