Disclaimer: You know what... you already know the deal...

Chapter 9: Corn Maze of Death

"Now then, for this very last story among us. I plan to make this the most terrifying and darkest story of them all." Shawn was telling his friends. "I call this.. The Corn Maze... of DEATH!"

That was followed by... silence. There was no lightning and thunder this time, much to Shawn's surprise as he said, "Hmm.. strange. This was to be my scariest story, so I figu-"

BOOM!

Lightning struck and thunder crashed. But it was even louder, brighter, and scarier than ever before. Completely freaking out Cubby big time as he screamed. Willow began to comfort him, as Shawn began to tell his story, "It was a dark, foggy, and o' so chilly night.."

We go into the story world, as we see Shawn's manor, and various toons and friends entering, as there was a party going on. A costume party to be more precise. We go inside the mansion to see the party at hand, and it seemed to be very scary, since it was Halloween.

And it looked like everybody was having a super good time. Well.. all except one little boy. He was sitting alone, dressed as a pirate, but he wasn't having a lot of fun, since he had nobody to play with. Tyler was his name, and he was rather shy.

Tyler just sighed, talking to himself, "I wish something interesting would happen. Something I can get involved in."

Suddenly, evil laughter filled the air, as everyone turned their attention to a stage... "Attention fellow guests, the time has now come for the lucky ten of you to have an opportunity of facing the haunted corn maze, where only one can win all."

In a puff of smoke, appeared Shawn himself, looking rather sinister.

"For on this night, only the bravest of the ten shall make it out with their skin still attached to them. But who will be the ten toons to enter my maze? Let us find out."

That's when a board appeared, as ten shadowed figures appeared on the screen, each one being revealed one at a time.

Actually, the first three were revealed, being... Ed, Edd, and Eddy.

A spotlight shined on the three Eds, "For the first three, we have Ed Edd n Eddy."

As for the Eds themselves, "YAY! We're going to a maze! We're going to a maze!" Ed cheerfully sang to himself with delight.

Shawn chuckled fiendishly, "Now let's see who will join the Eds." Three more shadows are uncovered, revealing a certain sponge, a certain seastar, and a certain octopus. "Why it'll be Spongebob, Squidward, and Patrick."

While the two formers were thrilled, the latter however, was not, "Why did I even bother coming to a Halloween party...?!" Squidward asked to himself.

Shawn smirked evilly as he turned to the board once again, which revealed a Pokemon trainer, and two sibling who are part of the Tomorrowland Transit Authority, those children's names were Ash Ketchum, Miles, and Loretta.

"Blastastic!" Miles cheered as he high fived his sister.

"All right!" Ash also cheered.

Now it was down to the final person... as it... was revealed... to be Tyler!

"And finally, we have Tyler."

The little boy gasped in shock, but was excited, "Oh boy. Something cool is happening."

"Now then, the ten of you luckily selected toons, proceed outside to the starting area of where the corn maze shall take place. As for the rest of you, continue on with enjoying some party time."

With that, the chosens one left the manor, and soon found themselves standing outside of the maze, where Shawn appeared once again in a puff of smoke, yet again looking sinister.

"Toons, this here is my corn maze. All you have to do is very simple, work your way through this maze and make it out on the other side. First one to do so shall win a prize. But be warned, there are many traps and dead ends along this maze, so choose your paths wisely."

Everyone looked at one another, and then back at the maze, "Good luck.. you're going to need it." He then said before disappearing in a puff of smoke again.

Everyone stared at the maze in silence, until Eddy spoke up, "Big prize, here I come!" He ran into the maze, followed by Ed and Edd, who sighed. Miles was about to walk in, but was suddenly stopped by Loretta, "Hold up, little brother. I'm going with you. The last thing we need is you getting lost."

"Don't worry, Loretta. I won't get lost." The seven year old said.

With that, the siblings walked in, followed by Ash, "Come on, let's go in." Spongebob said as he and Patrick followed as well, with a grouchy Squidward following suit, at a much slower and annoyed pace.

As for Tyler, he felt a bit nervous. But he decided to think about what his mother alway told him, and be brave. So, taking a deep breath, he walked into a maze. As he did, Shawn was watching from a tree, chucking mischievously.

"If only these fools knew the truth of this maze."

In the maze, all seemed very quiet at first, nothing happening yet. We check up on the Eds, "Come on sockhead, you're the so called navigational type. Where the heck is the exit?" Eddy asked.

Edd looked all around their surroundings. The corn was very tall, making it very hard to see, even he wasn't sure. "Eddy. It is awfully big around here. I propose that we keep going."

But Eddy groaned knowing that this could take forever, so that's when he decides.. to cheat. "Forget this. Let's just work our way straight through the maze and make ourselves a way out."

"Eddy! I believe it's best that we play fair and square on this one." Edd tried telling him.

Suddenly, fog began to appear. "Ah quit your whining will ya, it's not like there are any hidden cameras around here." Eddy told him. That's when there was a sudden movement in the corn, "Oh dear..." Edd whispered, "Gentlemen, I have a feeling that we are possibly being followed."

As for Ed, he wasn't really paying attention to anything at all apparently something was distracting him big time. Which was the thought of gravy, chickens, and buttered toast.

Speaking of chickens, a couple of them walked by the Eds.

*BAWK BAWK*

"Chickens!" Ed shouted with glee as he chases after them.

However as he chased them, he unknowingly walks right through and inside parts of the maze wall. "Ed! Come back!" Edd called.

"Mwahahahahaha!"

Evil laughter filled the air, and seconds later, Ed re-emerges from the wall. Only this time his skeletons was all that remained as it fell to the ground. Edd and Eddy screamed in terror at that sight, "Death by the love of chickens. How sad.." Said a sinister voice.

Eddy looked all around him, "C.. come on Ed. You gotta be joking right?!"

Suddenly, there was another evil laughter in the air, "Stick with the rules, or you shall join your friend in eternal rest."

Eddy gulped, Edd just gives Eddy a cold glare, folding his arms on his sides, "Best do what he says, Eddy."

"Alright, alright. It's better being alive than-" He suddenly gets interrupted as a really long tongue comes out and wraps up Eddy, and ends up being pulled into a hungry bull frog."

"Oh dear!" Edd whimpered, backing away.

Meanwhile, with Spongebob, Patrick, and Squidward, They continued to wander the maze, as Squidward was already bored, "And to think I could be at home playing my clarinet right about now.."

As for happy sponge and star, they were skipping through the maze as if they were frolicking through a field. Suddenly, they all heard moaning... low moaning. "What was that?" Patrick asked, suddenly startled.

"Maybe it was a ghost..." Spongebob suggested.

Squidward rolled his eyes, "Probably somebody trying to scare us.."

Suddenly, there was a rustle in the corn, and it was loud, this caused Spongebob and Patrick to huddle close together in fear, cowering as well. But Squidward still wasn't amused. "You two are acting like a couple of ninnies. I'll just bet that host is messing with our heads by playing some stupid jo-"

SLASH!

A floating chainsaw appeared in front of them, revving up as if it were a motorcycle, and all Squidward did was scream with fright before the chainsaw saw's up Squidward till he was nothing more than a messy puddle. Unfortunately, Spongebob and Patrick did not notice as they ran away in terror from the mere sound of the chainsaw.

Meanwhile, we catch up to the Callisto siblings, who were currently in the middle of a fork in the road. "Hmmm... which way should we go now, Loretta?" Miles asked.

The eleven year old looked at her braclex, "I'm trying to find another way out... but my braclex has no single."

Miles began to think, but then came up with an idea, "I think we should look for directions, there's bound to be something."

Suddenly, screams could be heard from afar, startling the siblings, and they sounded very close, and very familiar. "Miles... I think we should get going..." Loretta whimpered.

"Yeah..." Miles replied.

At that moment, a figure appeared in front of them, wielding a sword raised high in the air, and slashes Loretta in the stomach area. Her brother gasped in horror, "LORETTA!"

Miles didn't want to believe it was true, but he didn't have much time to react as he ran away, the last thing he wants is to end up being killed too. He kept running as fast as he could, till suddenly. He fell from under his feet as he screamed and blood spewed out, that's when we see that Miles had fallen into a pit trap full of sharp spikes.

The last thing the seven year old heard was a sinister voice, "All who enter my maze shall die."

And sadly, for Miles, he was unlucky.

Meanwhile, with little Tyler. He was actually walking down the same path Miles was running, that's when Tyler stumbled and stopped in front of the same pit trap. He didn't bother to look in as he jumped over the pit and continued walking.

As he walked, he felt completely scared at the moment. He sure wished he tagged along one of the others... suddenly, he heard a voice, "Hello? Anybody?"

Before Tyler knew it, someone jumped in front of him. He looked more closely, and noticed it was Shawn K... looking as sinister as ever.

"You seem lost little boy."

"Um... yeah... can you help me?" Tyler asked.

"Oh I'll help you alright." He replied darkly. "Help you die..."

At the mention of that, Tyler yelped and ran the other way. Last thing he wants is to die right now. Shawn watched as the boy ran off, and chuckled to himself, "There's no escape from my maze. All who enter it never comes out."

Meanwhile, we check up on Ash, who was trying to figure out which way to go. He was by himself, and it was too bad that his Pikachu wasn't with him. Especially with what this maze has done to the other competitors so far. Though he was completely unaware of it.

As he rounded a corner, he heard some laughter..

Startling him as he got into some defense and said, "Who goes there...?"

The trainer was just about ready to grab for one of his Pokeballs, when he noticed someone running towards him, hugging him tightly. It was Tyler, scared to death. "I'm glad I found you..." He said, "Can you stick with me? I'm scared..."

Ash smiled, "Of course. I could use the company..."

With that, the two boys continued further into the maze...

Trying to find the exit as soon as possible, not knowing what this maze has in store next.

As for Shawn K., he continued to watch from a tree, smirking evilly.

"So far the maze has already done it's damage, killing many innocent competitors, while the remaining few stayed on the alert. Trying to get out alive."

The all star chuckled as he spotted Ash and Tyler, "Time to die."

He snapped his fingers and disappeared. Back with the two boys, Ash was holding a Pokeball in his hand for protection, while Tyler was looking around frantically, hoping that nothing would pop out in front of them. That's when Ash noticed something up ahead.

A set of open gates, that could mean only one thing to him...

"The gates! We're almost out of there alive! Come on Tyler!"

Ash began to run fast towards the gate, but Tyler has hesitant, "What if it's another trap...?" He asked.

Suddenly, as Ash runs pass the gate, they slam shut just as Tyler stopped in front of them. From within, it was a dead end that Ash was in. It took him only a moment to realize to his horror that he was in a death trap. "Oh no! I knew it..."

The little boy heard more maniacal laughter, Ash, completely terrified. Runs up to the gate, and tries to pull them lose. He was completely scared for his life as he heard Shawn's sinister voice.

"You made a grave mistake, and now you shall pay up with your life."

A vine suddenly emerges from the bushes as it lashes out and wraps around Ash's leg. Then starts to pull Ash back as he screamed in terror, trying to fight back. But it was only a matter of time as he tells Tyler, "Get out of here, Tyler! You're the only one who can make it out alive!"

He didn't have to say that twice, as the boy ran off.

As Ash lost his grip and was immediately pulled into the bushes...

As for Tyler, he continued to run as fast as he could. Tears falling down his cheek, he was completely scared stiff now. He felt like he was going to die. Oh why did he have to be picked for the contest?

What if he never got out, what if he never saw his loved ones or friends ever again? Oh this was all too much for him to take.

That's when... he remembered something his mother told him...

"Be brave... no matter what the situation is... that's what I have to do!" He said to himself as he stopped for a moment. In the bushes, he saw a big red rose... one he remembered seeing earlier.

That's when it hit him.

"I know what to do!"

And he knew exactly where to go, as he immediately heads off to the left of the maze. He could now retrace his steps and could find out where the exit was.

As he did though, he passed by some familiar spots where other competitors died. Like Ed, Ash, Miles, Loretta, and Squidward. Soon enough... he saw the exit... "I can make it... I can make it... I made it..."

The boy fell to the ground and sighed in relief as he found his way out of the maze. That's when Shawn jumped down in front of him, "Well congratulations little boy, you managed to have the guts to escape with your life."

Tyler sighed, "Thanks..."

At that moment, the others ran out and fell to the ground as well, even the ones who died... and brought back to life.

Much to Tyler's shock and surprise, "Wow..."

Squidward stood up and glared at Shawn, "Of all the idiotic, nut job people I have ever met, you are by far the worst yet." He then stormed off at Eddy agreed,

"I can't believe I LOST TO A TWERP! Just as bad as being swallowed by a stupid frog." He then left.

Loretta frowned, "I am SO done with this Halloween craziness. Let's go, Miles."

"I kinda had fun." Miles replied.

As for Shawn, he chuckled. "Did you really think I was going to kill you all off one by one?"

"Well, in our defense, it did seem likely..." Edd answered.

"It's Halloween. So I had to make up something terrifying to spook you all. And it worked!"

Shawn then turned towards Tyler, "As for you Tyler. For being the 1st one out, here is your prize." He then handed the boy a box. Curious, he decided to open it... and when he did...

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!"

He gasped as a scary looking bear popped out and jumped at his face...

We then go back into the real world as Shawn concluded his story, "And the boy was mauled alive by the scary bear. The end."

Everyone stared at him in shock, until he chuckled a little, "Not bad eh?"

"Okay, but seriously, man. What happened to the kid? I know he didn't get mauled by that bear, I saw him the other day." Peter asked.

"It was just a story Peter. What did you expect?"

Jake soon spoke up, "Well, I can say that was definitely a scary tale, Shawn."

"A bit too scary..." Cubby gulped.

That's when thunder once again boomed from outside. It was still storming. "And it's storming pretty bad out there." Shawn said. "At this rate, we may be stuck here all night."

"Well, if that's the case, we all had better wash up and get ready for bed." Willow suggested.

Everyone nodded in agreement. Cubby's eyes widened in fright hearing what Shawn said. He couldn't take it anymore as he loses it! The boy faints, as Peter notices, "Looks like someone is already ready for bed."

Suddenly, everyone heard noises...

Groaning noises... ghostly groaning noises...

Cliffhanger!
