------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jack and the gang had just left the doctor's laboratory and were heading back to the pumpkin patch, jack's new sandy costume and scare device on hand.

"I hope that thing works," said jonesy.

"Well, the doctor made it," said jack. "And all of his creations are always perfect."

"There it is!" said jimmy. "The patch with the pumpkins full of ghosts!"

The others looked up. Sure enough, there was a gate that led to the pumpkin patch.

"Come on," said jack. "But be careful."

---

The gang and jack cautiously entered the patch.

"Where are the possessed pumpkins, jimmy?" asked jen.

"There," said jimmy, pointing to three pumpkins in front of them.

Jonesy looked at the pumpkins. "So what?" he asked. "They look like regular pumpkins to me."

"Looks are deceiving," said jack.

"What made the ghosts come out, jimmy?" asked jen.

"Me and Caitlin walked up to them," said jimmy.

"Then I guess it's time to try this out," said jack. With a wave of snowflakes. He was in his sandy costume.

"Prima donna," jonesy grumbled.

Jack took a scare device out of his sandy bag. He got ready to throw it. "Merry Christmas!" he sang, throwing the scare device right in the middle of the pumpkins. But nothing happened.

That's when jack heard snickering. He turned and saw that jonesy was desperately trying to stifle laughter.

"What?" asked jack.

"Dude, your voice went up, like, two octaves!" Jude exclaimed, bursting into laughter.

"It did not!" said jack, clearing his throat. "Did it?"

"Well, I have to admit, the tone was a bit above range…" said Sam.

"Jack's got a girly voice!" jimmy blurted out.

Jack frowned. "Hey now…" he began.

SPROING

The team turned back to the scare device. A giant clown head had sprung out of it without warning. And there were no more pumpkins. Just three very confused-looking ghosts.

"Sam was right!" exclaimed jonesy.

"As I expected," said Sam.

"Come on!" said jack. "We've got to get rid of them before they get back into any more pumpkins!" he got out the soul robber and charged toward the ghosts, the gang got out their weapons right behind.

---

It was like this the whole way through the pumpkin patch. More possessed pumpkins would appear, jack would scare them out with the scare device, the gang would laugh at jack's "girly voice," then they would smash the ghosts.

"The bridge leading to the big pumpkin head is straight ahead," jack said. The gang looked off in the distance. There was a gigantic jack o' lantern. "Maybe we can get to the bottom of things there."

As the team moved on, they noticed that all of the regular pumpkins in the pumpkin patch had been smashed. They also found out that they weren't alone. Down the path, the team spied another Halloween town resident this one was bald, with very pale skin. He wore faded blue overalls, dirty yellow rubber gloves, and had an axe sticking out of his head.

Jonesy looked around at the smashed pumpkins. "Wow," he said. "What a dump."

"jonesy…" jen scolded as jack walked up to the Halloween town resident.

"Behemoth!" jack exclaimed, looking around. "The pumpkin patch is a mess!"

"It's the bad'uns," said behemoth in a deep, slow voice. "They ruin it. Break the bridge…"

That's when jack saw it. The stone bridge that led to the big pumpkin head had been split, preventing anyone from going over to the other side.

"The big pumpkin head," behemoth continued. "bad'uns eat it, too. My precious pumpkins…"

"That must be where the main infestation is," said jack. "Come on guys. We'll have to…" but when jack turned around, the gang were gone! "Guys?"

"Come on, lumpy!" jack heard jonesy say. "Put some backbone into it!"

"I can't reach it, jonesy!" said jimmy. "It's too far away!"

"Put him out farther, Sam!" said jonesy.

A grunt from Sam. "But jonesy, we'll fall in!" he said, looking at the rushing green water below.

Jimmy was trying to grab the other side of the bridge, Sam holding onto him, and jonesy holding onto Sam. Jimmy was too short to reach the other side, all three boys were dangerously close to falling in the water.

Jack shook his head, then walked over and grabbed jonesy by his shirt, pulling him and the other two boys back in. "don't waste your energy, boys," he said. "We'll have to take the other way around. Follow me!"

So, the teenagers followed jack deeper into the patch, behemoth waving goodbye to them.

Just then, as the gang were walking…

MAAAAAAAAOWWWWWWWWW!

"Arrgh!" jonesy groaned, plugging his ears. "There's that stupid cat again!"

More microphone feedback.

"Testing…testing…one, two three…am I on? A-hem denizens of Oogie town! Jack skellington and those teens have returned, according to the reports. Heh heh heh…they're enjoying our dangerous Oogie town so much, they're screaming in horror. Rejoice! This is all thanks to your efforts. Now, barrel, my star pupil, my prodigal son, my shining star. Go out and finish what your half-witted, half-alive playmates started. Because if you don't, there's more than half a chance I'll be very, very, very…ANGRY! Ba ha ha ha ha ha ha! Uh…um…that is all.

As the feedback faded, jonesy slowly took his fingers out of his ears.

"Is he done talking?" jonesy asked.

"Yes," said Sam. "And something tells me that this trip isn't going to be a pleasant one, either…"

"Was that Oogie?" asked jimmy.

"Yeah was it?" asked Caitlin.

"You two should know, lumpies," said jonesy. "You two were possessed by the guy!"

"What?" asked jimmy and Caitlin.

Jonesy groaned.

"All right!" said jack, stopping. "If we just continue through this area, it will lead us straight to the big pumpkin head. Let's hurry!"

---

After walking a little longer, jack and the gang stopped. The path was suddenly blocked off by a giant pumpkin root. And guess who jumped out from behind it?

"Hey, jack!" said barrel, as lock and shock jumped after him. "Want some candy?" barrel was holding a black and orange lollipop.

"We've had enough of your treats." Said jack.

"Aw, jack," said lock. "We're just getting started!"

"Our biggest trick is yet to come!" said shock.

Just then, the giant pumpkin root curled up, allowing lock, shock, and barrel to continue down the path.

"You're gonna get so lost," said barrel. "And after what we did to the mayor's house…oops! Wasn't supposed to tell you that! Catch you later, jack!"

Jonesy tried to chase after them, but the pumpkin root uncurled back over the path, stopping.

"This is no longer funny," said Sam.

"As if it ever was to begin with we gotta get rid of this root!" said jonesy, getting out his knife and started to cut the roots but the roots wouldn't cut his knife wasn't strong enough jonesy began to move his knife back and forth very fast.

"There must be something that activates it…"said jack.

Just then, the pumpkin root curled up again.

"Cool!" said jimmy.

The gang and jack looked over at jimmy. He was standing next to a scarecrow.

"Jimmy, how did you do that?" asked jen.

"I hit it," said jimmy. "Neat, huh?"

"That must unlock the path!" said jack. "Come on! We have to move!"

"What do you think barrel meant when he said, "you're gonna get lost?" asked Wyatt.

Jack looked down the path. "I think I know…" he said, clutching his skull.

The gang looked down the path, too. Then they saw what jack meant. The path led right into a maze!

"Aw, man," jonesy groaned. "Now that's exactly what we need right now."

"Okay, no big deal," said jack. "We just need to be careful, and move slowly…"

As the gang stepped deeper into the maze, they got another surprise. More enemies popped up from the ground.

"Screw that!" jonesy shouted. "Jimmy, find the stupid scarecrows and hit them so we can move on!"

"Can do, jonesy!" said jimmy.

He ran ahead as the others fought the enemies, finding scarecrows and hitting them, thus unblocking the path for the others, who ran like hell through the monsters

At the end of the maze, the teenagers were once again panting heavily. Even jack look a little frazzled. But at least they had reached their goal.

"Another bridge!" said Sam, pointing.

"That's where the big pumpkin head is!" said jack. "Hurry!"

"Hurry, hurry, hurry," said jonesy as they ran over the bridge. "What the hell happened to walking?"
