Shiva the Sarcastic: Glad you like the fic, yeah that is like Jack to obsess over things like this.

Chapter VI: Meetings

Jack Skellington

"We've searched all over Jack and still we haven't found the book. I still think it's…," the Mayor began to say until I silenced him with a mousetrap.

"Please, Mayor, your panicking will not bring the book back," I tell him exhausted and annoyed. If we were going to find it he would need to keep our heads on our shoulders.

While we searching, Sally came into the room, "Jack, I found something you should see," she said concerned.

"I'll be there in a minute my dear," I tell her, my skull was humming with theories on who the thieves were and I wasn't going to rest until they were caught and justice was served.

"Jack, this is important," she says as she takes my arm and pulls me out of the room to the spare bedroom upstairs.

"Okay, you have my attention," I said as she opened the door and I gasped at sight before.

"Is that?" I ask pointing to the young man lying on the bed. He appeared to be in his teens with white hair dressed in a tattered black and white jumpsuit.

"I'm not sure, but he needs help," she says as I take out a first aid kit and began to tend to his wounds.

"Jack, what's going on, the cr…," the Mayor yelled as he came up the steps and saw the unconscious kid in the room. "Oh my, is that the…," I tell him before I silence him.

"We're not sure; all that we know is that Sally found him. He needs help, call Dr. Finklestein," I tell him as he leaves. I hope he doesn't make a scene out of this.

"Ghost 50 feet ahead," the Fenton Finder said melodically as I followed its advice. We had searched for miles and still found no trace of Danny.

"Sam, I think I found something," I shout out to her as she hikes over to where I was standing. A hopeful smile played on her face.

"What is it?" she asked as she caught up with me, but before I can respond an unseen force hits me in the stomach sending me flying through the air until I hit a tree.

"Hello whelps," a sinister voice said as Skulker appeared from nowhere and smiled, "How I love a good hunt in the woods," he said aiming his ecto-rifle at us.

"You'll have to do better than that," Sam tells him as she takes out an ecto-gun and fires at the hunter who dodges it.

"HA, amateurs," he sneered as he fired an ecto-net at me. I tried to dodge it but I was too slow.

"Let her go, creep," Sam threatened as he pulled me in and hung me up on a tree.

"You should make fine bait for the bears here," Skulker laughed thinking I was helpless but you'd think he know better than that.

"I hope this works," I said under my breath as I took out my cell phone and dialed a number.

A few seconds later, Skulker's PDA beeped, "what now," he fumed as he glanced at the screen, "go to the zoo and buy everything dealing with Purpleback Gorillas," he says as his rockets activated and he took off in flash.

Soon the net vanished and I started to fall, but luckily Sam was there to catch me.

"I think you should lay off your dad's secret fudge stash," she said jokingly as I glared at her.

"Just kidding," she snickered as she helped me to my feet. "On a serious note, we need to look for Danny, who knows what Vlad did to him," she said as she took out the Fenton Finder and we continued to search for him, hoping he's safe.

"Operation get a Halfa is underway," I said as I spied on the mayor from our hideout. Jack had the Halfa in his care and soon he will be in our care and ready for the ceremony.

"Just one problem, with Mayor Blabbermouth announcing it all of Halloween Town will be at Jack's door just to get a glimpse of Mr. Halfa. How are we going to get out of there," Shock said impatiently.

"Yeah, it's not like Jack will let us into his house," Barrel says as he sticks his finger into the brew only to be electrocuted.

"Well if he won't let us in, we'll just have to make a visit after hours," I tell them as I begin to draw up plans to capture our prize and bring him back to our place.

Danny

Everything seems a blur to me; one moment I'm stumbling around in a strange town and next everything went black.

I don't even know where I am now; I hear voices around me they seem to be talking about me. I hope I haven't been captured by anyone who would harm me.

"He's just like the stories said," a female voice said, "I wonder if his eyes are green like they say he has," she continues. I shudder as I think about someone experiment on me.

"Do you think it's true that he defeated Pariah Dark," another voice asks astounded (how the heck do they know of Pariah Dark anyway). They seem to be impressed with me and my encounters with ghosts.

"I even heard he's friends with the Ghost Master of Time himself," a voice that sounds like a child says amazed.

"That's just an urban legend, besides no one living or dead has ever seen Clockwork in person. He might just be made up for all we know," another voice chided him.

The voices seem to quite down as another one says, "Please give him some space."

Finally, I gather the courage to open my eyes and what I see astounds me. I am lying in a bed in what appears to be a home.

All around me are strange creatures, vampires, witches, zombies, demons, and ghosts. They aren't attacking me though, but seem transfixed to see me as if they can hardly believe I'm real.

"Can I have your autograph, Mr. Halfa," a vampire says as he comes up to me holding a book and quill.

"Uh…sure," I say as I take the book and pen, "who do I make out it to?" I ask curiously.

"Count Schreck, S-C-H-R-E-C-K," the vampire tells me as I write down something in the book.

"There you go," I say as I hand it back to him.

"Thank you, Mr. Danny Phantom," he says reading my signature and walks away,

Soon bedlam erupts until a voice says, "please that's enough!" as tall skeleton dressed in a black tuxedo with a bat for a bow tie steps in and pushes the crowd back. "I'm really sorry for the commotion, it's not everyday that someone as famous you, the Halfa, comes here," he says.

"That's okay, I'm kind of use to causing a scene," I tell the skeleton honestly.

"I'm Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King, at your service," he says bowing and holding out his hand to me.

"Danny Phantom," I tell him shaking his hand and smiled.

"It's honor to meet you, Mr. Phantom," he replies smiling.

"Just Danny, if you please," I tell him feeling embarrassed to be called 'Mr. Phantom.'

"Sorry, I wasn't sure how to address a personage of your magnitude," he said. He went to turn to the crowd but was knocked down by someone barging into the room.

"Is he awake Jack? Is this him? Is this the Halfa," a short man dressed in a tuxedo with a top hat and spider for a tie and a red ribbon with the word 'mayor' on it asked as he races up to the bed and looks at me.

"Yes, Mayor," Jack says as he gets up and brushes off his tuxedo, "and he has a name, Danny Phantom," he informs the mayor.

"Mr. Danny Phantom as mayor here, let me be the first to welcome you to Halloween Town," he says smiling as he shakes my hand as a strange camera creature snaps pictures of us.

"Um…Thank you," I manage to say before Jack pushes the mayor out of the way.

"Yes, yes, I assure you that there will be plenty of time to meet Danny, but for now he needs to rests," he says as he pushes the crowd out the door and shuts it. "I apologize for the crowd Danny, as I said before it's not everyday someone famous shows up here," he says with a chuckle. "Before I forget, Dr. Finklestein will be here shortly to treat your wounds. He may be weird but he's the best," he says as he leaves the room.

"And I thought the Ghost Zone was weird," I tell myself as I lie down and get comfortable thinking about what weird place this 'Halloween Town' is.
