Chapter XV: Timing

Jazz

"Do you have a plan to free Danny from this Oogie Boogie," I asked Sam as we walked down the halls and loaded our ecto-guns.

She paused for a moment as if to think of something before turning and replied, "I think I do."

She then explained to me that since Oogie knew of some Danny's thoughts, that there has to be something of Danny left inside him and she wasn't leaving until she rescued Danny and I don't blame her.

"The only hard part is getting back to the room where Danny is, we could be here for years until we find the right room," I tell her as I look around the corner to make sure we're not being followed.

"Well, Danny was in the room with the giant roulette wheel on the floor," she says as she opens a door and finds an empty room.

"This place gives me the creeps," I tell her as I look at the gambling devices in the room, "This Oogie Boogie definitely has some problems," I said as I placed my hand on one of the devices, a motorized blade in the shape of spades.

While I was looking at the frightening apparatus, Sam pushed me into a corner. "Shh, someone's coming," she said peeking out to see who the intruders were.

"Now all we have to is find the other girls and bring them back to Oogie Boogie," I heard the boy say as he and the girl searched the room for signs of us.

They were about to leave when I accidently tripped.

"What was that?" the girl said looking around tensely as if something spooked her.

Sam glared at me as if to say, 'great move Jazz,' but before I could get up I saw those two kids staring at us.

"Looks like we caught some spies," the girl said sneering at us.

"Think again," Sam shout back as she got out her ecto-gun and blasted the kids. "Come on, let's go," she says as she helps me up and we leave the room to find Danny.

Jack Skellington

"You won't get away with this Oogie," I tell him sternly as I try to break free of the shackles he has me in but they are too strong.

"Are you a gambling man, Jack," Oogie asked with a sinister smile as he pulled a lever and revealed that he had Sally prisoner. "How much do you want to bet that she dies," he said as he took a needle and began to undo her stitches.

"Let her go Oogie, this is between you and me," I tell him angrily as growl at him.

"You're no fun, Bone Man," he cackled as he stared at sally, "How many stitches does it take to keep a living doll together? You want to make a bet Skeleton," he laughed as he continued to unstitch Sally.

"Don't worry Sally, I won't let him hurt you," I muttered to her trying to keep her calm and trying to figure I way out of this.

Sam

"I'm sorry Sam, it was an accident," Jazz whispered to me, I was still mad at her for blowing her cover but I was also trying to focus on Danny and how to save him from that Oogie Boogie.

"It's okay; we just need to focus on Danny. There has to be a way to reach him," I said thinking. I knew that there had to be some of Danny left in that thing and I wasn't going to leave until Danny was safe.

"But how, Oogie's control of Danny is too complete. He can't see anything," Jazz told me, it was then it hit me.

"That's it, you're a genius Jazz," I said taking out a small book from my pocket and flipped through the pages.

"What are you doing?" she asked as I flipped through the pages of the book.

"I read once about a similar spell and the only way it could be broken if one remembers that they are becoming their worst fears," I tell her.

"How are we going to make him see that he is becoming like Dan Phantom," she asked trying to figure out a plan.

Just I as was about answer everything froze and I saw Clockwork appear from the corner of my eye.

"I can assist you with that," the ghost said as he came over and put medallions around me and Jazz allowing us to move again.

"Who are you?" Jazz asked the specter as she watched him change into an old man and then back into a child.

"I am Clockwork, master of time. I have come to aid you in your fight to save Danny," he said taking a mirror from under his cape.

"What is that?" Jazz asked as the ghost held the mirror in his cape obstructing the reflecting surface.

"This is the Mirror of Deimos; it shows who ever looks at it their worst fear. You must not gaze in it, which is why I have the glass covered. If Danny looks at it, he will see what he is becoming and be freed," he said taking a cloth, wrapping the mirror in it and handed it me.

"Thanks," I tell him before he removes the medallion, starts time up again, and vanishes leaving us alone once more.

We continued to walk until I heard something, "get the ecto-gun ready," I tell Jazz as I take out mine and sneak up on door that my gut tells me that Oogie Boogie is behind there.

Sally

"Let's see that's 31," Oogie said as he undid another one of my stitches laughing, "not too many to go," he cackled as he continued his evil work.

"Danny why are you doing this, this isn't like you," I pleaded with him, hoping there was tiny bit of Danny Phantom left in him.

"I told you stop calling me that, your precious Halfa is gone and only the Boogieman remains," he snaps at me as he undoes the last of the stitches on my right arm and it falls away.

"Leave her alone," Jack shouted trying to get free but the shackles wouldn't budge.

"Don't worry Jack you're ne…," he began to say until something forced him to the ground. "What was that?" he said as he got to his feet only to be blasted again, "Who dares," he shouted.

"Us, you disgusting sack of filth and disease," the voice of Sam said as she and Jazz ran into the room, we were saved.
