Jonesy was trying to be patient as he waited at the entrance to the woods be fore he had left his house he had a pistol a m4 and a uzi and a knife he used one of his dads belts for his pistol holster and a knife holster and a shoulder strap for his uzi and m4 he looked down at the cup of white rice and orange chicken he had brought with him where were they how long had it been like three minutes

Just then jen nikki jude wyatt joe fred sam and Samantha ran up they all had belts for their pistols jen had uzi nikki had the same gun too jude had a mp and a m16 wyatt had a uzi and a ak joe had a tec-9 and a m4 fred had a tech-9 and a mp sam had a uzi and a ak Samantha had a uzi and a m4

" are we late?" asked jen

"yes" jonesy said " where have you guys been the past three minutes?"

nikki sighed "remind me why we're doing this again?" she asked

" we're just gonna see how things are doing in Halloween town that's all you know to see if jack's okay" jonesy said

"sure and why do you have that rice and chicken with you?" said jen

jonesy looked down at the cup "it's for if I get hungry" he said simply

" oh please" said jen "Halloween town's … what a fifteen minute walk more over that rice and chicken probably not very filling your stomach's still going to be empty no matter how much you eat"

"whatever" said jonesy " hey speaking of empty where the hell are jimmy and Caitlin?"

"maybe they already went in" said sam

"what?" said jonesy "but I said…"

"yes you said" said jen " but when do jimmy and caitlin usually listen to you?"

jonesy groaned as much as he hated to admit jen was right not much logic got to jimmy and caitlin's tiny brain's

jonesy reached into his pocket and got the magic map

"here" he said handing the map to sam " you know I can't read it"

" of course" said sam

" don't worry guys I'm sure we'll find jimmy and Caitlin"

"yeah?" asked jonesy " I guess if they don't try to sneak off to Christmas town to try to become elve's again"

so nikki jen jude wyatt jonesy joe fred sam and Samantha ventured into the woods follwing the magic map once again only this time they knew exactly where they were going but they were short 2 of the gang

"shit I swear if jimmy and Caitlin cause any trouble by themselves …" jonesy grumbled

" oh come on jonesy" said jen "I admit jimmy and Caitlin's behavior is some what… questionable but seriously how much trouble could they cause?"

" just think about for a minute" said nikki

so jen thought then her eye's widened " I guess you're right" she said " let's hope we find them soon"

at the point the jack o' lantern door was in sight and jonesy was seeing something else there at the base of the door were jimmy and Caitlin

jimmy was wearing a shoulder pistol holster and a belt for his machete knife and katana and he had a uzi and a ak

Caitlin was wearing a belt with a pistol holster and she had a uzi

" hey guys!" called fred

but they were too far away for jimmy and Caitlin to hear them as the gang ran to their 2 friends calling out their names jimmy simply opened the door and he and Caitlin jumped in

jen ran up to the now open door panting heavily

" wow jen" said jonesy " you should try out for cross-country you're so good at running"

jen ignored that comment

" jimmy Caitlin!" she called through the open door " you 2 get up here and close this door!"

" yeah like that's gonna work " said nikki

" let's go down and get them" said joe

" right" said jen

then jonesy ran up still holding his cup of chicken and rice and dove head first into the door the others cautiously looked down into the darkness closed their eye's and jumped in next the jack o' lantern closed behind them jonesy landed on solid ground first he grunted as the others fell on top of him they were now in the woods outside of Halloween town known as the hinterlands behind him was another door this one was shaped like an old house the others got off jonesy jonesy pushed jen off of him thankful that his chicken and rice cup hadn't broken and looked around then he groaned again there was no sign of jimmy and Caitlin

"jimmy Caitlin you idiot's!" jonesy said out loud " why didn't you wait for us?"

" oh dear" said jen getting up " did you see what they had on?"

" can we just go find jimmy and Caitlin already?" nikki said " they're starting to piss me off "

" oh" grumbled jen nikki was so stubborn sometimes

" fine let's move on so we can get back home" jen said

" fine" said jonesy

the gang walked through the woods in silence holding their uzi's and as they walked they began to notice something different about the woods it seemed a lot more bare than the last time they were here had some trees been cut down and even worse all the trees looked the same so jen and sam had to concentrate and even then they still felt lost then after a while of walking just when the gang began to feel that they knew where they were

ARR!!!

The sudden shriek away from the gang's back of course they began to shoot except sam being as fragile as he was jumped into the air slamming into jonesy knocking him down and making him drop his cup jonesy's rice and chicken spilled out all over the ground

" my chicken and rice…" jonesy groaned

" oh I'm so sorry jonesy did I make you do that?"

the gang turned around they knew who it was behind them

" hi jack" the gang said all together

sure enough there standing behind the gang was jack skellington himself he had his usal black and white pinstripe suit on and he had a big bag slung over his back

" hello guys" said jack " fancy beeting you all here I almost didn't recongnize you you have different weapons "

then he noticed that there were 2 missing

" hey where's jimmy and Caitlin?" jack asked

" we were about to ask you the same thing" said jonesy who began to crawl and pick up his food

" jimmy and Caitlin got away from us again jack" said wyatt " you haven't seen them have you?"

jack thought for a minute

" no sorry" he said " but what brings you all to Halloween town at this time of year?"

" we just thought we'd check up on you guy's see how everyone's doing" said jonesy

" jack what's in the bag?" asked wyatt

jack looked down at the bag slung over his shoulder

" what's this?" asked jack " well you see I've been out searching for new discoveries for next Halloween I wanted something new I do hope the townspeople haven't missed me too much"

" so you haven't been in Halloween town?" asked jen

" not since Halloween no" said jack

" new discoveries huh?" asked jonesy " I hope you weren't looking for them in Christmas town ?" he said suspiciously

" oh no" said jack ' you don't have to worry about that guy's I've learned my lesson no more taking over other holidays"

" good" said jen " I'm glad to hear that"

" hey did you find that weird bracelet while traveling?" asked nikki pointing to jack's wrist

jack looked at the bright green bracelet wrapped around his right wrist

" oh no" he said " you see the doctor made this for me he calls it the soul robber it's quite amazing just wacth"

jack put his sack down and aimed for a near by fallen branch he flicked his wrist suddenly the soul robber shot out and grabbed the branch pulling it to jack

" no way…" said jonesy as he stood up he had just finished pick ing up his rice and chicken

" duuuuuuuude" said jude

" oh my…" said jen then a grin appeared on her face " what a discovery I'm speechless I mean this is an absolute coup the control over it's projectile why…"

nikki wrapped her arm's around her friend " I thought you were speechless" she said " anyway that thing's cool jack I bet jimmy and Caitlin would flip if they saw that"

" which remind's me they're still missing again" said joe

" well who knows" asked jack " maybe they're already in Halloween town"

" let's hope so" said jen "oh I hope they're not causing any trouble for the townspeople"

and so jack along with the gang ventured onto Halloween town but little did they know all was not well
