DIsclaimer: I don't own Kingdom Hearts

Gomen... I always get confused with their names... it's kinda embarassing n///n

But I have corrected it, so hope you like it.

Candy bar

Sora was jumping with excitement as he went behind the scenario, a huge grin on his face let his fangs shine with the little light there was. He couldn't help himself, he was very happy.

"Sora, an impressive presentation" the young vampire turned around to face the rag doll he loved to call mom.

"You think so?!" he said almost laughing "Did you saw them?! They screamed and shiver in fright!" the doll clapped as he started to jump "I sure scare them!" then he got immobile "I hope, well… that Jack felt I did a good job…"

Sally walked towards the young nightmare, a smile on her stitched face.

"I'm sure he was proud of you Sora, I surely was" she said. Almost instantly the boy recovered all his hyperactivity "That's more like you…. Oh, wait I almost forgot!"

Sora turned to her and found her holding something on her hand under an old clothe.

"What's that?" he asked in innocent curiosity.

"Well… since now you are officially the pumpkin prince, Jack and I thought it would be a good idea if you had a symbol of that" she retire the clothe and saw how Sora's face beamed from happiness "So I made this for you"

"For…. For…for me?" he stuttered. In Sally's mind Sora just looked very cute at the moment "R-r-really? For real?" he said looking at her with hope.

"Completely, take it" she said.

"Than-thanks…" he slowly took the object in his hands, a sense of proud inside him as he observed it. For many it was just a mask, for him it was like a dream come true. It was the mask of a pumpkin face, a very original one, and more than that, it was made by the lovely queen of Halloween, for him, Sora, just a common nightmare till Jack accepted him in his family. Sora put it over his head, since it was small it couldn't go over his face "I like it very much!"

"So do I" the two turned around and saw Jack entering the area "A lovely item that surely is symbol of your future charge. Frightening idea my dear" he said to her, then turned around to look at Sora again "Um… but there is something…what could it be…." He got near Sora who looked a little nervous "Aha!" using his skeleton hands he took the mask and put it almost over his right eye "Now it's perfect"

Sora smiled at the thought of Jack liking his appearance.

"Sora, that was indeed a very frightening introduction, but I want you to know this, if you're going to be my replacement, then I expect you to become even scarier, is that understood?" he said in a serious tone.

"Yes Sir!" answered Sora with a determinate tone "I promise I'll become as much scarier I can be, I'll make them scream and cry in fright!"

Jack got very happy at seeing Sora's enthusiasm.

"I know you will, that's why you're my knew son, and I will teach you everything you need to know about nightmares" at hearing the word son Sora beamed again, Jack laughed because of that "I like your enthusiasm… by the way, the mayor is going to come to dinner tonight, he wants to get to know you better Sora, after all we have all to remember that: He's only an elected official and can't do this by himself" the last statement was said by the three creatures.

"I know that very well" Sora said between laughs.

"Hahaha, he can be annoying sometimes but is the only nightmare that offers to become mayor, so what else can you do? besides he really works hard and puts a good face to everything"

"More like puts his two faces to anything" cleared Sally.

"Exactly, Sally you always have the right answers!" exclaimed Jack, then turned around to Sora "I want you to be prepare because he might be worried about your future position, so be as most confident as you can tonight"

"Understood, I'll make him believe in me... but… since for dinner I still have an hour left…."

"Yes?" asked Jack curiously.

"May I go to find Zero? I want to tell him about my presentation! Scary please?" He begged with an adorable expression.

"Oh…" Jack couldn't deny it, that face could kill him… well… again…. "Ok, you may go, but remember I want you at home in an hour, you don't want to be late for your first meeting with the mayor, now do you?" Jack put a grim expression giving his statement the strength of dare.

"(gulp) … no worries… I'll be back" with a nervous smile he started to get away but before leaving, he gave Sally a quick hug.

"Hahaha, that boy is really something!" said Jack wrapping one arm around his beloved wife.

"He sure is Jack, but you didn't have to scare him now"

"Why not? It gives him something to look forward to, besides, I want to stay as his idol as much time as possible"

"Jack, what ideas you have?" she giggled a little as he started moving with her as if dancing on a melody that only them heard on their hearts.

"It's just that he seems as the perfect representation of Halloween… I want to enjoy rising him as much as I can" he spin her a little and continue the waltz.

"I know what you mean… his scary but innocent in heart, he's dark but mischievous, his serious but childish at the same time… I'm happy his part of our home"

"Me too, and He'll be for a long time!" As the waltz finished he took her on a lovely hug.

Ooo

Sora was humming the song of Halloween as he remembered the scared faces of the people inside the auditorium… they were priceless… since he had the ability to split his shadow into those creatures like dark clothes (almost like a heartless but less definite) he could appreciate the sight for many different points… but there was something strange… he remembered a creature that was different from anyone he had seen on Halloween town before, it kind of make him curious, what could it have been?... it looked almost like…

Quickly and by reflexes Sora's clawed hand catch something that was about to hit his head, looking at it he identify the object as a candy bar.

"Great!" he open it and started eating it, all the while hearing the little giggles coming from some dead bushes "You better get out of there, I already heard you!" he said a mischievous light shining on his eyes.

Then three little figures jumped out all of them laughing out loud. They were like children in costumes; one was a demon, other a skeleton and the other a witch.

"Lock, Shock, Barrel!" said Sora with enthusiasm "What were you three doing hiding there?"

"Well, we kind of were sneaking" said barrel.

"We wanted to see you, oh mighty prince Sora!" said Lock mockingly, the three bowed playfully making Sora laugh.

"You guys! Did you saw my presentation?" he asked.

"We did, from the window that is…" said Shock.

"Man, I almost thought the mayor was going to pee himself!" declared barrel.

"OH!" Shock said looking at him closely "Theirs something different about you tonight Sora… Something that makes you even scarier"

"Geez, here she goes again with all girly stuff!" whined barrel.

"Shock likes Sora, Shock likes Sora!" chanted Lock.

"That's not true!" yelled her angrily "And if you don't shut your mouth I'll burn you as if you had already gone to hell!" the boy shut up a little angry at her threat "It's just there's something…oh, I know! You've got a mask! Your own mask!"

The three looked at Sora.

"You've finally got your own mask Sora!" Said Barrel.

"Yeah! Sally made it for me!" he explained.

"Forget about who made it, you've got a new mask, and that we have to celebrate!" yelled the demon "Common let's go make some tricks around town!"

The three turned and started to walk, but after a few seconds they noticed Sora wasn't fallowing them, so they turned to him.

"What are you waiting for? Common!" yelled Lock.

"Um… well… you see guys, I really appreciate it, but I can't go now" he said a little sad.

"What?! Why not?!" asked Barrel.

"I've got a meeting with the mayor, and Jack is counting on me to be there"

"Oh I see… Sora's got important business to attend to" said an angry Lock.

"More important than going with his old friends" added an angry Shock.

"Guys… I…"

"Forget it… after all; you're the prince now, aren't you?" the tone that Barrel used was filled with poison.

"Yeah, and we are just your old friends, forget about it…"

"Yeah, we don't need you, and you don't need as" Shock turned around.

"Is as they say" Barrel turned around two.

"Yeah, common guys, let's go have fun between FRIENDS!" The three disappeared in a dark ally.

Sora just stared at them till they were gone.

"Guys… "he called but no one answered "Um… well…" they were mad but Sora trusted they would chill out a little with time, he turned around and before continuing his way he said to no one in particular "Thanks for the candy!"

Ooo
