yeah yeah yeah, I know, I haven't updated. Sorry. (no reviews people? I'm hurt...) anyway, here's the next chapter...
"Oh Jake!!!" another townsgirl called. Jake ignored her. He had just went into town for a walk, and had already been harrased by five girls. Such was your fate when you were a miniture Jack.
"Jake!!" another called. Jake frowned. "I'm not in the mood, please ladies." he said sternly, then was on his way, kicking a stone around being angry.
"Jake!" Jake groaned. Another one. Then he looked up to see Suzy coming towards him, a dress in her hands. Jake's eyebrow ridges raised.
"Suzy? I thought the doctor said you couldn't go." he said. Suzy looked shyly at her feet. "He changed his mind." she said vaguely. Well, Jake didn't question.
"So, you are coming with to the ball with me then?" he asked. Suzy nodded. "Spectacular! I better get home to change, I'll see you tonight Suzy!" he called, then sprinted off to Skellington manor.
Jack stood on the doctor's doorstep. 'How odd that no one has answered yet.' he thought to himself. He had been standing onthe porch for several minutes, and no one, not even the doctor, ever kept Jack Skellington waiting. Jack cautiously pushed the door open.
"Hello? Doctor?" he called, but to no response. The only noise he heard was a loud, grunting sort of sound. To be honest, it sounded like a snore. Jack followed the sound to find Dr. Finklestien and his creation, Jewel, sound asleep, heads on the table, bowls of soup in front of them. Jack strode over and sniffed the soup.
"Deadly nightshade." he stated.
Jake had stormed out of the house, which was why Sally was more than a little surprised when he ran happily back in.
"Jake?" she ventured. "Hey mom, guess what? Suzy said the doc changed his mind! She's going anyway!" he exclaimed. "I gotta go get changed." he said, then dashed into his room.
"The doctor changed his mind?" pondered Sally.
okay, okay...guys I really need reviews...so, I'm not posting the next chapter until I get at least three reviews. I'm sure you can do it.
